1. Before the Western Jin Dynasty, Hai'an belonged to Hailing County

From 1973 to 1978, the excavation and research of the Qingdun site in the western part of Hai'an (former Qingdun Brigade of Shagang Commune) showed that the early In the Neolithic Age more than 5,000 years ago, the central and western parts of Hai'an County had become land and there were human settlements. During the Xia, Shang and Western Zhou dynasties, the Hai'an area belonged to the land of Jiuyi (Huaiyi). Yu divided the world into nine states, and Hai'an was the "domain of Yu's tribute to Yangzhou". From King Wu of Zhou to King Yuan of Zhou, the Hai'an area belonged to the State of Wu. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Hai'an and several surrounding counties were called "Haiyang". Today's Rugao, Hai'an, and Taizhou areas belonged to the State of Wu, and the place name was Yun. It was in the Lifaqiao area of ??today's Haian. The major events in "Hai'an County Chronicles" are based on the inscriptions of Lifa Bridge in the Qing Dynasty. It is recorded as "in the twelfth year of Lu Aigong (483 BC), Lu Aigong Weihou Yun". This may be wrong with the facts, because according to the new edition of "Rugao County Chronicle", "Zuo Zhuan" records: "In the twelfth year of Duke Ai of Lu, the Marquis of Wei met with Wu Yun." According to the records in Zuo Zhuan, the twelfth year of Duke Ai of Lu, the author believes that Wu, Lu, Wei and Song met here.

In the third year of King Zhou Yuan (473 BC), Yue destroyed Wu, and Hai'an became part of Yue. In the thirty-fifth year of King Zhou Xian (334 BC), Chu defeated Yue, and Hai'an became Chu again. land. After Qin unified China, Hai'an belonged to Guangling County, Donghai County. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, it belonged to Dongyang County, and at the beginning it belonged to Dong Chu. In the fifth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (202 BC), it belonged to the State of Chu, the following year it belonged to the State of Jing, and in the 12th year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, it belonged to the State of Wu. In the third year of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty (154 BC), it belonged to the Jiangdu Kingdom. In the sixth year of Yuanshou (117 BC), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty established Linhuai County, which governed 29 counties. Hai'an belonged to Hailing County (see page 1589 of Hanshu). In the fifth year of the Han Yuan Dynasty (106 BC), Linhuai County belonged to the Xuzhou Governor's Department. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hai'an was still the seat of Hailing County. In the eighteenth year of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao abolished Hailing County. During the Three Kingdoms period, Lu Dai of Wu State restored Hailing County. In the first year of Taikang (280), Emperor Wu of the Western Jin Dynasty, Hailing County was still established and belonged to Guangling County of Xuzhou.

2. From the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, Haian established counties several times

According to the Southern Dynasties' "Song Book" (page 1055), "Fang Yu Minutes", and Xianfeng's "Hai'an County Chronicles": Emperor Jin'an In the seventh year of Yixi (411), Guangling was divided into Hailing County, which included five counties: Jianling, Linjiang, Rugao, Ninghai and Putao. "Rugao County Chronicles" and "Fangyu Minutes" of the Republic of China record that Ninghai County is in the north of Rugao County. "Xianfeng Haian County Chronicle" believes that Ninghai County is today's Haian County, and "Hai'an County Chronicle" (1997 edition) also adopts this theory. The location of its county seat is ominous, making it difficult to examine the county in detail. In fact, according to the map of the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the fourth volume of "Chinese Historical Atlas", Ninghai County is larger than today's Haian. Not only is part of today's Haian within its territory, but also present-day Dongtai, Rugao, Jingjiang and part of Taixing are all within its territory. Southwest to northeast. In the seventh year of Taishi (471), Emperor Ming of the Southern Song Dynasty, Xinping County was established, with jurisdiction over Jiangyin and Haian counties (according to page 1058 of "Song Book"). Page 1121 of the reduced version of the 1999 edition of "Cihai" states: "Hai'an County was established in the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty and abolished in the Tang Dynasty." In the fifth year of Emperor Yongming of Qi Wu (487), Xinping County was abolished and Qichang and Hai'an counties were established ("Xianfeng Hai'an County Annals"). At this time, the county seat of Hai'an County was in today's Hai'an Town. The boundary map of Ninghai County at this time was marked in the area of ??today's western Rugao, Jingjiang, and Taixing, which may be somewhat inaccurate. Soon Hai'an County was abolished (the time is unknown), and its territory still belongs to Ninghai County. From the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, Ninghai County continued to exist, and its jurisdiction also changed. In the first year of Zhou Xuanzheng in the Northern Dynasty (578), Putao (now Rugao Baipu) County was abolished, and Linjiang County (now Rugao Shizhuang) was merged into Ninghai County. In the ninth year of Kaihuang's reign in the Sui Dynasty (589), Rugao County was also merged into Ninghai County. At this time, Ninghai County included present-day Hai'an, Rugao, and areas beyond the southeast and southwest of Rugao. In the first year of Wude (617) in the Tang Dynasty, Ninghai County was renamed Wuling County. Soon Ninghai County was merged into Hailing County. In the second year of Emperor Jinglong of the Tang Dynasty (708), the eastern border of Hailing County was divided into Hai'an County. The county seat was located in today's Hai'an Town. At that time, Rugao County belonged to Hai'an County. Due to the invasion of sea water, the eastern part of Hai'an County was flooded by sea water. Therefore, in the 10th year of Kaiyuan of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty (722), Hai'an County was once again merged into Hailing County and belonged to Yangzhou.

Decades later, in 766 (the first year of the Dali calendar in the Tang Dynasty), Li Chengshi, the governor of Huainan, was worried about the rising tide and built a weir to protect the sea. It stretched 142 miles from Yancheng in Chuzhou (today's Huai'an) to Hailing in Yangzhou. , named Changfengyan. Changfengyan was repeatedly destroyed and built in later generations, playing an important role in ensuring the safety of life and property of residents along the coast of northern Jiangsu.

3. The affiliation of Hai'an changed from the mid-Tang Dynasty to the Republic of China for more than a thousand years

In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, Hai'an was still affiliated with Hailing County. During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Jinghai Zhiyuan was established in the east of Hailing County. In the Southern Tang Dynasty, Hailing was promoted to Taizhou. In the fifth year of Xiande of the Later Zhou Dynasty (958), Taizhou and other places came under the jurisdiction of the Later Zhou Dynasty, and Hailing County belonged to Taizhou Tuanlian, the governor-general of Yangzhou. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, most of the Hai'an area belonged to Hailing County, and Hai'an Town was one of the important towns in Hailing County. The affiliation of Hailing County has changed. In the fifth year of Emperor Qiande of the Song Dynasty (967), it belonged to the Taizhou Army of Huainan Road (changed to Huainan Road in the third year of Zhidao). In the second year of Tianbao in the Song Dynasty (1024), Fan Zhongyan served as the salt officer of Xixi (today's Dongtai). He led more than 40,000 soldiers and spent four years building the Haihai Weir (from Miaowan to Kuancha) and the coastal farmland of Hai'an and Dongtai. Protected from seawater intrusion. In the fifth year of Xining, Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty (1022), it was changed to Huainan East Road. The Southern Song Dynasty still belonged to Taizhou. In the 14th year of the Yuan Dynasty (1277), the first year of the reign of Emperor Shizu of the Yuan Dynasty, the Taizhou Road General Manager's Office was established, under the jurisdiction of Hailing and Rugao counties. Hailing County governs Hai'an Town and Jiaoxiechang, and is under the jurisdiction of Zhongshu Province on the Yangtze River and Huaihe River. In the 21st year of the Yuan Dynasty, the Taizhou Road General Manager's Office was changed to Taizhou, which was subordinate to the Yangzhou Road General Manager's Office in Xingzhongshu Province, Jianghuai and other places. In the 23rd year of the Yuan Dynasty, the province of Jianghuai and other places was changed to the province of Henan, Jiangbei and other places.

In the first year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1368), Hailing County Province entered Taizhou and was directly under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou Prefecture of Zhongshu Province. In the second year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1404), it was subordinate to Nanjing Yangzhou Prefecture, Hai'an Town, Xichangchang and others belong to Taizhou. In the third year of Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty (1645), Taizhou was subordinated to the Yangzhou Prefecture of the Jiangnan Chief Envoy. In the second year of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty (1724), he was subordinate to the Chief Envoy of Jiangsu Province. In the 25th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1760), it was subordinate to the Jiangning Chief Envoy Department. In the thirty-third year of Chaolong's reign, the northeastern territory of Taizhou was analyzed and Dongtai County was established. At this point, the southeastern part of today's Hai'an County area is in Rugao County, the northern part is in Dongtai County, and the central, western and southwest parts still belong to Taizhou. In the first year of the Republic of China (1912), Taizhou was renamed Tai County, and the Hai'an area belonged to Tai County, Rugao, and Dongtai. The three counties all belonged to Jiangsu Province. In the 3rd year of the Republic of China, it belonged to Huaiyang Road in Jiangsu Province. In the 16th year of the Republic of China, the road was abolished and Hai'an Town belonged to the eighth district of Tai County. Today, the southern part of Nanmo Town, Duntou Town’s original Jiqing Town, Huji Town, most of the original Guben Township of Dagong Town, Haian Town, Qutang Town, Yazhou Town, most of Sunzhuang Town, and the northern part of Chengdong Town, Even the west of Xichang Town belongs to Tai County; the southern part of Hai'an Town, the southern part of Chengdong Town, Xichang Town, and the southern part of Libao Town belong to Rugao County; the northern part of Nanmo Town, Baidian Town, Duntou Town, most of Dagong Town, and Libao Town belong to Rugao County.
