A Brief History of Yelang

In the late Warring States period, Prince Duotong of Yelang conquered the wandering tribes around the Niangzi River, stationed in Huangshan, recruited troops and horses, and established the Yelang Kingdom, which shocked the Central Plains. In 298 BC, Xiong Heng, King of Chu Xiang of Chu State, sent General Zhuang Qi to lead an army of 100,000 to attack and establish the neighboring country of Qielan. King Qielan sent his confidant Ran Gang to ask for help from Duotong. Duotong arranged for allies around Niangzi River to set up the Five Elements Bamboo Forest Formation in Yelang Valley to trap the Chu army. Qie Lan's daughter Qie Sinan and her best friend Luo Feifei accidentally broke into the bamboo formation, fell into a trap dug by the Chu army, and fell in love with Zhuang Qi at first sight. Sinan is engaged to Duotong and is pregnant with Zhuang Qi's flesh and blood. He drew his multi-cylinder sword, cut off his hair and cut off the love thread, and became sworn brother to Zhuang Qi. The name of Yelang Valley was formed because of love, and the story that love is more valuable than gold spread throughout the Central Plains. The Qin army cut off the Chu army's retreat. Zhuang Qi established himself as king in Dianchi Lake. According to the adaptation plan provided by Sinan before his marriage, Qielan Kingdom was set up as a pilot county system. Duotong defaulted to the county system and refused to adapt it. Zhuang Qi made a non-aggression pact between Qielan and Yelang. Fifteen years later, Zhuang Qi, the daughter of Sinan who had difficulty giving birth, fell in love with Duotong. In 283 BC, the Chu and Qin armies pressed the border, and the soul-stirring long-distance love in Yelang Valley fell into a confusion between the enemy and ourselves.
