4. Doubts about magazines and books

"Fang Yu's Minutes" says: After the southern crossing of Shanxi Province, Maoming County was placed under the jurisdiction of Gaoxing County. According to "Jin Zhi", Gaoxing County covers the five counties of Guanghua, Hai'an, Huaping, Moyang, and Xiping... After the southern crossing, there was no Gaoxing County and no Maoming County. Maoming County actually began in the Sui Dynasty. The summary is inaccurate and should not be used by each individual.

"Yu Di Ji Sheng" says: Feng You, the general of Tang Zhennan, asked to build a city between the east and west mountains of Gaozhou City, and built Panzhou Maoming County in the name of a Taoist priest. The theory of similar barnyard grass is not credible. According to the epitaph of Feng Junheng written by Zhang Shuo, the Duke of Yan State in the Tang Dynasty (the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty), "the Tang Dynasty divided the three states to confer the title of Feng An and his disciples, the former governor of Gaozhou. At that time, Feng You (you) was the governor of Panzhou. But it is not true that Feng You asked to establish a state and establish a county."
