Yicheng was successively the capital of the six dynasties of Cao Wei, Later Zhao, Ran Wei, Former Yan, Eastern Wei, and Northern Qi, and was the political, economic, military, and cultural center of the Yellow River Basin for four centuries, and the site area included the area of present-day Linzhang County, Hebei (Yibei City, Yenan City Ruins, etc.), and the northern suburbs of Anyang City (Cao Cao Gaoling, etc.) in Henan. When it was built in the early Spring and Autumn Period, Yecheng was a high-profile fortress, an important fortress, with high military value, and protected the peace of the party. However, in the years after the Tang Dynasty, Yecheng gradually "downgraded" and faded out of people's vision, and what kind of mysteries are hidden in it, let us travel through time and space and look at this ancient city. In the mobile game of the Coast of The Land, Yicheng is a magnificent and symmetrical northern city, which exists as the capital of Jizhou and is a place where soldiers must fight.

As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, there were Qi Huan Dukes who "built Wulu, Zhongmu, Yi, Gai and Sheqiu to defend the land of Zhuxia." The historical record of Yecheng began here. At that time, the central plains were really only the present Henan Province and some surrounding areas, even the powerful Jin state was mainly entrenched in the southern Jin region, and then went out, there were countless ethnic minorities, and the nomads in the north were the heart of the Central Plains regime, and the emergence of Yecheng was precisely to protect the Central Plains from the harassment and even aggression of the Di tribes. Later, the three families entered the Warring States Era, and the State of Wei was assigned this piece of "fragrant food", known as the "talent harvester", Wei Wenhou, who was known as the "talent harvester", sent a capable cadre to make Gongsun Leopard the commander of the Gong Dynasty, and the new official gongsun leopard took office with three fires, and when he first ascended to Yecheng, he broke the long-standing superstition of "Hebo" (every year to sacrifice the bride, otherwise the Hebo would send a lot of water, and the proceeds of the fundraising would flow into the pockets of the squires and goddesses), and later he bowed to the Zhanghe River and led the crowd to dig 12 ditches and make full use of water resources. Gongsun Leopard was also a good hand in administration, and in the era when wars and chaos were flying and people's lives were like grass, he insisted on "educating soldiers in agriculture and hiding grain in the people", and the performance level of Yicheng rose sharply, becoming the "great iron gate of northeast China" of the Wei state.
The first emperor returned to his heart and implemented the county system, Yi County belonged to Handan County, the original "opposition" of Yicheng for the first time had a "establishment"; in the early Han Dynasty, it was transformed into the jurisdiction of Wei County, and the "Wei" character could be of great use in the later period; at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Jiuzhou, Yicheng became the core area of Jizhou, and then the three kingdoms rose together, and the relevant stories were familiar to everyone, Boss Cao wanted to take back this treasure land from Yuan Shao' hands, but he could abolish the boss's strength, and finally he was crowned the Duke of Wei/Wang, although living in Xuchang was also very beautiful, However, Yicheng, which could control the north deeply, was obviously more fragrant, so it was designated as the capital of Cao Wei, and a Tongquetai was built here to lock Erqiao, and even though Cao Pi later ran to Luoyang to claim the title of emperor, he still attached great importance to Yecheng and regarded it as one of the five capitals.

For most of the Jin Dynasty and the north, Yecheng remained a shining star, known as the capital of the country or an important seat of government. After the Northern Zhou boss destroyed Northern Qi, the more he looked at Yecheng, the more unpleasant it was, so he demoted it, and later when the rebellion was chaotic, in order not to give the enemy "a back road", he even burned down Yicheng, and the name was updated, good fellow, your family really has a deep hatred for Yecheng. Although the Sui Dynasty called back to Yi County, compared with the glory of the past, the current Yecheng city only has a trace of afterglow. The Tang Dynasty was motionless, the Song Dynasty was cut again, and even put the abandoned county of Yicheng in the town, good fellow, can it be lowered! At this point, Yicheng was basically kicked out of the establishment, as if back to "before liberation", the Yuan Dynasty was still under the jurisdiction of Linzhang County, and the Ming and Qing Dynasties were put in charge of Zhangde Province, anyway, it was in a slump...

Regarding the decline of Yecheng, there are three reasons: first, because the Territory of the Huaxia Ethnic Group is getting bigger and bigger, the original border defense town has later become a peaceful hinterland, and there are many areas with better geographical locations waiting to be developed, and Yecheng is strategically withdrawing from people's vision; second, because of the diversion of the Yellow River, the construction of canals and other water conservancy factors, the "source of life" owned by Yecheng has decreased, and its economic role has declined. Third, because the later capital or capital did not favor this land, the political value weakened.
