In Ming and Qing Dynasties, it belonged to fengguli of six districts. According to the annals of Nanri Island, at the beginning of Hongwu Period in Ming Dynasty, pirates "seduced the place where the pirates left behind". In order to defend against Japanese pirates, the Ming Court initially set up the Nanri mountain water stronghold here, and pinghaiwei sent 900 troops here. Later, because the water stronghold was "helpless in the rising sea", it moved to Shicheng, which was separated by a river, and integrated with Qingshan inspection department.

When the soldiers and horses of Ming and Qing Dynasties were sawing along the coast of Fujian, the Qing government cut off the border, and the people of southern Japan were forced to move in. In 1667, the general of Xinghua City and Zheng Jing, the son of Zheng Chenggong, united to defend Xinghua City and resist the Qing army.
