Xiuwu County has a long history and is an ancient county in China. Before the Zhou Dynasty, this place was called "Ningyi". At the end of the Shang Dynasty (1046 BC), King Wu of Zhou set up troops to cut down the army. When the army passed through Ningyi in case of heavy rain for three days, it could not be done, so it was stationed on the spot to practice martial arts, so it was changed to "martial arts". Since then, it has been more than 3000 years. A.D.
