Historical evolution

In the early Ming Dynasty, panma inspection department was set up in the east of the town, which was the place where the Fu County troughs were transported. In the Ming Dynasty, rice from Huangyan and Taiping counties was transported to songmenwei, chumensuo and aiwansuo to prepare grain for anti Japanese officers and soldiers. In 1661, because of Zheng Chenggong's resistance to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing government believed that the coastal residents helped the volunteers and sent Shang Shu Su Nahai to Taizhou to create a no man's land. At this time, the residents of haishili in the southeast of Taiping County moved to the mainland. Outside the Mucheng, the river was dug to protect it. It is from the new river, Tangxia RuoHeng Town, he Yunliang River to Songmen. In the eighth year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi (1669), zhanfu moved out of the boundary. However, the countryside was still deserted. It was not until Zheng Kelong surrendered in 1922 that the boundary was completely restored. After that, the river was dredged many times. For example, in 1871, the rivers were dredged through RuoHeng. In 1932, Yunliang River and Sicheng River were dredged. In 1942, Mucheng River and ruosung River were dredged.
