An author of Xiandi village, Yaodu District

Xiangling county was set up here in the early Western Han Dynasty, belonging to Hedong county. After more than 200 years, it was renamed Ganchang County in the new dynasty of Wangmang. During the peasant uprising in the late Han Dynasty, after the war, the county government was moved to guchengzhuang in the early Eastern Han Dynasty. The name of Ganchang, or Gancheng for short, was left here.

After Qinchang City, in 428, Emperor Taiwu of Wei Dynasty won the title of Xia Lord he Lianchang in Anding (Xingchuan) of Gansu Province. In order to show off his martial arts and deter the common people, Emperor Taiwu tuobatao built Qinchang city and analyzed that Pingyang set up Qinchang County in Beiqu (Jixian). Later, he changed the county into a county and moved it to Yang county (Hongdong). After about 80 years, he analyzed Xiangling and set up Qinchang County, moved it to Qinchang city (Qiao Li), and abandoned Xiangling to Qinchang in 556. Zhou pingqi (577) moved from the city of Qinchang to the old city of abandoned Xiangling (the bottom of the county) because the county was to the north. In the second year of Daye of Sui Dynasty (600 years), the old name of Xiangling county was restored and the county government was moved to guchengzhuang. The city has been under the jurisdiction of Qinchang for more than 100 years, and Qinchang county has governed the city for about 30 years. The area under Wohu mountain was still Xiangling County until Jin Dynasty. Geographical records of the Jin Dynasty: there are Fushan, Fenshui and Zhishui in Xiangling county. Wohushan is a hill in the northwest of Fushan. The above-mentioned jurisdiction of Xiangling county has Fushan, which indicates that the area around Wohushan is still under the jurisdiction of Xiangling county. Perhaps in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, when the Jin Dynasty divided the Hexi area of Linfen into Pingshui County, the area around Wohushan was put under the jurisdiction of Linfen. This true history should be written into the relevant county annals.
