After the Qin Dynasty destroyed the Six Kingdoms, counties and counties were set up in Yulin area to build the Great Wall, and Zhenbeitai Great Wall was one of them. In the early Ming Dynasty, Yansui Town moved from Suide to Yulin, and established cities to trade with Mongolians in Hongshan, Shenmu, Huangfuchuan and other places north of Yansui Town.

Since the exchange of markets, Mongolians often wait for opportunities to go south and plunder property. In order to ensure the security of the border cities, Yu Zijun, governor of Yansui, built the Great Wall of Yansui Town in April on the basis of the Great Wall of Qin and Sui Dynasties in the 10th year of Chenghua in Ming Dynasty (1474). At the same time, in order to cooperate with the trade of Hongshan City, he built Yima City and the tribute city for Mongolians to control trade. In the thirty-fifth year of Wanli (1607), Beitai, a town built at the southwest corner of Gongcheng on the red hill, was also a prominent place in the north and south of the Great Wall.
