Luoyi (Chengzhou) was the administrative center of the Western Zhou Dynasty in the east, and was a military town for the Western Zhou Dynasty to develop to the east and deal with the main threat from the East, and the "Chengzhou Eighth Division" of the Dynasty was stationed here. Around Luoyi, the Zhou people's feudal state extended eastward along the banks of the Yellow River, distributed on the main lines of communication, near the pass, and on flat and fertile terraces, which could not only exercise effective control over the main roads of communication, but also enjoy the benefits of agriculture.

?? In order to exercise effective management over the Shang remnants who had re-surrendered after the Second Crusade of the Zhou Dynasty, and to control the passage from northern China along the eastern foothills of the Taihang Mountains to the Central Plains, the Duke of Zhou sealed his half-brother Uncle Kang at the Beidu Modi (also known as Chaoge, in present-day Qi County, Henan Province) of the King of Shang, and established the State of Fan and the State of Qi in the vicinity of present-day Hui County and Yanjin in present-day Henan Province. As can be seen from the map, the positions of these three countries form a triangle, and they are horns to each other, forming a barrier on the passage south of the Shang Dynasty's wang qi.
?? In order to control the entrance from the east to Luoyi, the Zhou Dynasty established the state of Dongyu (later established the Guan'ai Tiger Prison Pass) near the Tiger Prison, known as the Eastern Gateway of Luoyang, and established another ancestral state of the same surname at the foot of Ao Mountain, on the north bank of the Jishui River, to control the east-west passage along the banks of the Yellow River.
?? The narrowest area between the Taihang Mountains and the Yellow River, the southwest corner of northern Henan, was the main traffic route from the Yiluo Basin to southern Jin and the plains of northern Henan, and the Zhou royal family sealed one of King Wu's sons near Qinyang to establish the state of Qi, and sealed the two younger brothers of king Wu on both sides of the state of Qi, and established the original state and the state of Yong, and the three countries were arranged in a straight line, controlling the entrances to the two important passages from northern Henan to southern Jin, north of present-day Qinyang City, Henan, and Xuanguan (also known as "Xuandao" or "XuanguanDao") west of present-day Jiyuan City, Henan. The arch guards the northern gate of Luoyi (Chengzhou). It also echoed the trend of jin guocheng at the other end of the Xuanguan Dynasty.

?? In order to guard the Sanpeng Road, a shortcut from the Han River Basin to the Iloilo Basin through the Nanyang Basin, near this road (around the present-day Town of Pingding Shanxi), the same surname ZongGuo Yingguo was placed, and at the same time, the same surname Zong Pro-Guo was also deployed in the upper reaches of the Ru River in the rear of the Ying State.
On the southern bank of the Yellow River ferry port Maojindu (4 km south of present-day Pinglu, Shanxi), the state of Beiyu (北虢国) and the state of Jiao (Jiaoguo) with the same surname were established to jointly guard the safety of this communication jinliang with the same surname Zong Qinyu state on the north bank. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Beiyu became the gateway from the west into Luoyi, controlling the main communication route between the Weihe Plain and the Yiluo Basin, the Kunhan Passage, and its strategic position became more and more important.
