The Ancient Great Wall: During the Warring States period, Zhao built it, from Dai along the Yin Mountains to Gaoque (two prefecture names), to defend against the Hu. Yan also built one north of Gui Prefecture extending to Liaodong. The First Emperor of Qin ordered Meng Tian to construct the Great Wall, beginning at Lintao and entering Gaoli.
