If the device has not been charged since 2016, it is very possible that the battery has died and would need to be replaced. If you have connected it to the charger for several hours and it has not shown enough charge to even turn on, you are going to have to get it serviced. Use the Contact Support link at the top of the page here to contact Apple Support to start a support request. Four years of not being charged is not good for the battery, especially if it was stored in a low charge state.
