Why did Liu Yuan, a Hun, call himself Emperor Han?

The Sixteen Kingdoms is a period of great division in the history of China. Since the Southern Xiongnu returned to Han Dynasty, ethnic minorities, including Xiongnu, gradually moved inward and first lived in Mongolia, Gansu and other places. When Shun Di was in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu besieged Xihe County and moved to Shaanxi. In the Western Jin Dynasty, Xiongnu continued to stick to the Central Plains and moved inward. According to the theory of disciple and Rong, Shanxi and Shaanxi were almost all Rong areas in the Western Jin Dynasty, and the Han people in Guanzhong area accounted for more than half.

In ad 29 1 year, the rebellion of eight kings broke out in the western Jin dynasty, and the people could not live any longer and rebelled. The people of all ethnic groups who moved in were exploited by the Western Jin Dynasty for a long time, so the uprising against national oppression was in full swing. In order to quell the rebellion, the nobles of the Western Jin Dynasty led the Xiongnu, Xianbei and other troops to win foreign aid. The larger ones include Zhu Jie in Wu Heng and Duanwu in Xianbei, and Liu Yuan in Xiongnu. Ren Zi? In Luoyang, as a hostage, he learned China culture by worshipping celebrities, which was also appreciated by Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty. Xiongnu was divided into five departments, and Liu Yuan was appointed as a captain in the north, and was later promoted to five departments, which meant that Xiongnu was under control.

Liu Yuan, Zihai, Xiongnu Tuge. Now let's look at the information. He is the grandson of the Southern Xiongnu Khan Luo Fu and the son of Zuo Zuo Shuai Liu Bao. But now, after research, this is false. At that time, he claimed to establish his own image in order to win the support of Xiongnu ministries. First of all, it is certain that Liu Yuan, Liu Cong and Liu Yao are all Tumen, and Tumen is the descendant of King Hugh Tu and belongs to Twinkie family. In the eyes of Huns, their status and harmony are far lower than those of South Huns. Therefore, in order to establish prestige and status, Liu Yuan Uprising is all under the banner of South Huns and the Great Man.

After Liu Yuan proclaimed himself emperor, Zuoguocheng was built in present-day Lvliang, Shanxi. The picture shows the site of Zuoguocheng.

So the supreme leader of the Huns, and Yu's grandson is the direct blood relative of the supreme leader. After the Huns joined the Han Dynasty, the two families got married again. Attila claimed to be the nephew of the Han Dynasty and changed her surname to Han? Liu? Therefore, he thinks he has the qualification to inherit the throne of the Han family, and takes Liu Bei as an example. One state is rugged and competes with the world. In 304 AD, Liu Yuan Xian claimed to be Hanwang, pursued Liu Bang, Liu Xiu and Liu Bei, recognized Liu Bei as his brother, and finally decided that he was the natural heir of the three of them.
