At that time, there were many other tribes besides Huangdi tribe, among which Yan Di tribe and Chiyou tribe were the largest. According to historical records, Yan Di tribe was the ruler of China at that time, and its existence was much earlier than that of Huangdi tribe. At that time, the Yan Di tribe was equivalent to the Zhou Dynasty, but only during the period when the Yellow Emperor lived, the Yan Di tribe weakened and the Yellow Emperor tribe rose.
Huangdi Tribe defeated Yan Di Tribe in the Battle of Hanquan, and then merged and integrated Yan Di Tribe to form Yanhuang Tribe, which is why we were later called descendants of Yanhuang.
Daddede: (Huangdi) and (Yan Di) fought three wars in the wild of Hanquan, and then they had to realize their ambitions. There are quite a few historical books that record the battle of Hanquan, saying that the Yellow Emperor led bears, dragons, dragons, dragons, dragons. The army of the six tribes of Tiger Tiger and Tiger, holding flags painted with totem such as carving, stork (hé), eagle and kite (yuān), fought three major battles with Yan Di tribe, defeated Yan Di, and the Yellow Emperor was able to carry out his will.
Liezi Huangdi: Huangdi and Yan Di fought in the wild of Hanquan, with handsome bears, wolves, leopards and tigers as the leaders and eagles, eagles and kites as the flags. After the integration of Yanhuang tribes, China was not at peace, and the Yellow Emperor constantly crusaded against tribes unwilling to obey him. Among them, the Chiyou tribe is the most powerful. According to legend, Chiyou is a descendant of Yan Emperor Li Jiang. He has 8 half-brothers and 72 siblings, so there are 865,438+0 brothers, that is, 865,438+0 small tribes.
Chiyou is also called Li greedy. His eight half-brothers, Li Jue, Li Guang, Li Po, Li Fu, Li Bi, Chi You and his younger brother Yi * * *, are nine people, all of whom take Li as their surname, so they are called Jiu Li. This is the origin of Jiuli nationality.
Most places in ancient China were underdeveloped, so many places were suitable for living. When the tribe develops to a certain extent, conflicts for resources will inevitably occur. Yan Di tribe, Chiyou tribe and Huangdi tribe should all be semi-farming and semi-hunting, including gathering wild fruits and fishing for a living, as long as they can survive.
Limited resources. When the life scope of the tribe expands, there will be war. When there was a dispute between Yanhuang tribe and Chiyou tribe, both sides were aware of the coming war. History books also recorded the war:
"Historical Records of Five Emperors": Chiyou has no emperor's orders to make an accident. So the Yellow Emperor became a vassal and fought against Chiyou in the land of Zhuolu, so the birds killed Chiyou. This war is called the battle of Zhuolu, and the process is extremely simple. At the same time, there are a lot of myths in different documents. At that time, the strength of Jiuli people in Chiyou should be above the Yanhuang Group, and the civilization and weapons of Jiuli people were also superior to the Huangdi tribe. It is said that Jiuli was able to make bronze weapons at that time, and Chiyou was also the bravest man in the ancient history of China, and was later honored as a "soldier" by the Yellow Emperor.
Later generations enshrined in the Wu Temple were also called the commander-in-chief army, mainly because of his great military thought, but as the earliest soldier, Chiyou was the strongest, indicating that the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou nine times, but none of them won. Later, it attacked Chiyou City, which could not be broken for three years.
Shan Hai Jing Huang Da Bei Jing recorded a story about this war. It is said that there is a goddess named Nu Wa under the Yellow Emperor. She is wearing Tsing Yi. When Chiyou was at war with Huangdi, Huangdi sent Ying Long to attack the suburbs of Jizhou, and Ying Long tried to drown Chiyou's army. Chiyou invited Fengbo and Teacher Yu to help him. Suddenly, there was a storm, and the Yellow Emperor ordered Nuwa.
There is also a story about the battle of Zhuolu. It is said that Chiyou created a fog, which permeated the whole battlefield for three days and three nights. The Yellow Emperor couldn't win, so he sent his ministers to invent the south guide car according to the position of the Beidou constellation, and rushed out of the dense fog area according to the guidance of the south guide car.
It is also said that the Yellow Emperor, with the help of Xuan Nv, made drums out of 80 skins (a kind of beast in the East China Sea, shaped like an ox, with no horns on its head and only one foot), and made drumsticks out of Lei Shou's bones, and beat the drums loudly all over the world. Then the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou.
These stories are full of profound myths, and most of them are added by later generations. But what is certain is that Chiyou must have fought with the Yellow Emperor. The result of this battle was that Chiyou was defeated and killed, and the Yellow Emperor merged Chiyou's tribe. Most Chiyou tribes surrendered to the Yellow Emperor, forming the Yanhuang Group, while others were unwilling to descend to the south, forming the Three Dynasties.
This war should exist. There must be so many ancient books, which is why we are called descendants of the Chinese people. The people of China are not only Yandi Huangdi, but also Chiyou and his Jiuli people. After the integration of the war, * * * formed the ancestor of China.
There are several main reasons for the battle between Chiyou and Huangdi:
1, fighting for survival resources and territory.
Fight for the ownership of the world.
This is the same as most wars in later generations. Whether it is primitive society, slave society or feudal society, the development of human civilization is always accompanied by war. Apart from population, most of the causes of war are to seize limited resources and territory. Chiyou is stronger than Yanhuang, but in the end Yanhuang defeated Chiyou, which shows that Huangdi is more capable and virtuous.
After Emperor Chiyou became Emperor Yan, Emperor Yan was not a human being, but a tribal leader. After the Yellow Emperor was Yan Emperor, Yan Emperor was the earliest ruler of China. The first emperor of Yandi was Shennong, who tasted a hundred herbs. Later, the primitive society gradually developed, forming a * * *, that is, the world of Emperor Yan. During the Yellow Emperor period, Emperor Yan began to weaken, just like later.
