The Qing Dynasty in Togtoh City

Since the mid-Qing Dynasty, a large number of Han people have come to Tumochuan, especially after the implementation of the immigration policy, all areas in Tuoketuo have been reclaimed. First, in 1741 (the sixth year of Qianlong), Guisui Road was set up in Hohhot, and at the same time, an assistant judge was set up in Tuoketuo City, which was led by Guisui Road and was responsible for handling Han Chinese affairs. In 176 (twenty-five years of Qianlong), it was changed to Tocto's Hall of Directors, which was called Tocto's Hall for short. In 1884 (the tenth year of Guangxu), it was renamed Tuoketuo County. In the Qing Dynasty, the official offices and houses set up in Tuoketuo City were no longer in Dongsheng Acropolis, but on the floodplain outside the southwest corner of the ancient city. At this time, the Yellow River channel had been diverted to the west, and this floodplain was already a cultivated land. The original convenient transportation conditions adjacent to the Yellow River have been replaced by Hekou Town on the east bank of the Yellow River at the exit of Dahei River. Ships on the Yellow River travel between Yinchuan, Ningxia and Hequ, Shanxi Province, and most of the materials on both sides of the river are transported from Hekou. Hekou Town has flourished and become a land and water transshipment hub in Hohhot, and it has lost its role until beijing-baotou railway is opened to traffic.
