Fēngxiàn

Fēng County lies northwest of Xúzhōu on the plain between the Huái and Yellow rivers. It is remembered as the birthplace of Liú Bāng, the founder of the Hàn dynasty, whose family farmed at Zhōngyáng in Fēng. At the end of the Qín dynasty, the rising leader placed Yōng Chǐ in charge of the county as he began his struggle for power.
