Comment: 1) Delete the entry for 應城區.
Xiaogan has only one district, and it's not called Yingcheng.

Wp ~
"Since 2000, Xiaogan has been divided into 1 district, 3 county-level cites and 3 counties:
Xiaonan District (孝南区)
Yingcheng City (应城市)
Anlu City (安陆市)
Hanchuan City (汉川市)
Xiaochang County (孝昌县)
Dawu County (大悟县)
Yunmeng County (云梦县)"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiaogan


2) Rewrite the entry for 應城 to reflect the fact that it's a county-level *city*, not a district.
"Yingcheng (simplified Chinese: 应城; traditional Chinese: 應城; pinyin: Yìngchéng) is a county-level city of about 600,000 inhabitants in Xiaogan, eastern Hubei province"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yingcheng


3) As the above quote indicates, the tone on 应 is 4th tone, not 1st tone.
4th tone is also indicated by Wiktionary and KEY.
