The origin of its name can be traced back to 1544, when Ming dynasty defeated and captured a group of Doyan raiders from Northern Yuan. The captured Mongols were kept in a garrison in this region, which was named Zhenluying (Chinese: 镇虏营; lit. 'Subdue Captive Barrack'). The name later evolved into Zhenluoying of today during the Qing dynasty.[2]
