Yingshan County (simplified Chinese: 英山县; traditional Chinese: 英山縣; pinyin: Yīngshān Xiàn) is one of the seven counties governed by the prefecture-level city of Huanggang, Hubei, located on the eastern edge of the province, adjoining Anhui, and encompassing the southwestern portion of the Dabie Mountains.
The county covers an area of 1,449 square kilometres (559 sq mi) in 11 towns and townships.
Yingshan is famous as the birthplace of Bi Sheng,[2] the inventor of movable-type printing technology in the 11th century, which is regarded as one of ancient China's Four Great Inventions.
Communist guerrillas were active in the area in the early period of their insurgency, and the 27th Corps of the Red Army was set up there.
It was also the point of departure for the 25th Corps on the Communists' Long March to Yan'an.
