Which city is Zhechuan County, Henan Province?

There is no Zhechuan County in Henan Province, only Xichuan County, which is a county under the jurisdiction of Nanyang City, Henan Province. Located in the southwest border of Henan province, at the junction of Henan, Hubei and Shaanxi provinces, it is named after the formation of baili alluvial plain in China. The terrain of the county seat is dangerous, which was easy to defend but difficult to attack in ancient wartime. Known as "the Central Plains has not fought, and the soldiers are in the background".

Xichuan has a long history. As early as 700,000 years ago, people lived here. During the Yao-Shun period, Xichuan was the fief of Dani, the son of Shun. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, Xichuan was the fief of Xiong Yi, a Chu man. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Xichuan belonged to the capital of Chu and its vassal states, and Danyang (now submerged by Danjiangkou Reservoir) was the capital of Chu.
