The islet was originally named Shu Islet (鼠嶼; Shǔ Yǔ; 'rat islet').[14] The present name is given by Chiang Ching-kuo during his visits to military bases in Kinmen, this is adopted in 1960.


History


After 0:00 AM on July 7, 1953, People's Liberation Army 31st Army 92nd Division landed on Shu Islet to start an attack to ROC troop, leading 3 killed and 4 captured.[15]

In January 1985, a local Chinese sampan with eight fishermen suffered from the engine breakdown floated onshore the Islet. After the emergency communication identifying themself as civilians, Kinmen Defense Command ordered the stationed platoon through landline to kill all regardless - six died under crossfire and two escaped to a rock cave and kneeled down begging for mercy, but still were pushed off the rock cliff to fall to death under the KDC's urgent call again. Searching the sampan later only found a home letter draft from a son on having collected sufficient yarn for his mother to knit a sweater to pass the winter. The corpses were covered under the beach west of the harbor, then the soldiers were strongly warned not to leak out any information and transferred to another post in Kinmen main island.[16][17]

At around 4 PM on August 19, 2016, a 23 year old Chinese man landed on Shi Islet after rowing from Xiamen Island (Amoy) on a piece of polystyrene and was immediately arrested by the Shi Islet defense forces.[7][18][19]

On July 23, 2019, Ho Cheng (賀政), the new leader of the ROC Army Kinmen Defense Command (陸軍金門防衛指揮部), visited the soldiers on Shi Islet and Menghu Islet.[20][21]
