History of construction

Qin and Han Dynasties

There are four origins of the name of Lianzhou: 1. There are huanglianling (now Lianshan) in Lianzhou, which is rich in Coptis, so it is named after the things. 2. Lianzhou's mountains are undulating, three sides are dangerous, and one water is a ring. Therefore, it is said that "lianwanshan is a mountain, and water is a water". It is named after mountains and rivers. 3. Lianzhou is rich in lead and tin mines. As an old saying goes, "if lead is not refined, it is called Lian". There is also a saying that "lead and tin are named Lian" because of the mineral resources. 4. Lianzhou is surrounded by mountains and rivers, but the traffic is blocked, so people are eager for smooth traffic. The word "Lian" has the meaning of merging vehicles and ships, and gets its name because of its will.

The three dynasties (Xia, Shang and Zhou) belonged to Jingzhou, the spring and autumn and Warring States belonged to Chu, and the Qin (221-206 BC) belonged to Changsha.

In the early Western Han Dynasty (206 BC), the county was established, which is called Guiyang County, including today's Lianzhou, Liannan and Lianshan counties (cities). There are two reasons for the name of Guiyang: one is that there is Guiyang mountain in the west, so it is called Guiyang; the other is that the water of GUI originates from daluoling (the boundary mountain between Lianzhou and Lanshan county) and flows northward, so it is called Yang in ancient times; it belongs to Changsha state of wurui. The Silk Map of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty unearthed in Mawangdui, Changsha, is marked with "Guiyang County". In the sixth year of Yuanding reign of Emperor Wu (111 BC), Guiyang County was established in southern Hunan and northern Guangdong, and the county (city) was subordinate to it. Since then, after the Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms, the Jin Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty and the Qi Dynasty, the organizational system of Guiyang County has not changed, only the subordinate relationship has changed slightly. In the Three Kingdoms, Wu belonged to Shixing County, and Jin had the same Wu system.
