The Qiang people are an ancient ethnic group in western China, and people call them "Rimai", "Erma", and "Nation on the Clouds".

In ancient times, the Yandi tribe and the Yellow Emperor tribe fought a war, and most of the Yandi tribe was defeated and merged with the Yellow Emperor tribe to form the main body of the Chinese nation - the Han nationality.

A small number of subjects of the Yandi tribe moved west and south, and the local aborigines merged to form the Qiang, Tibetan, and Yi peoples.

The Qiang nationality has a wide and far-reaching influence on the historical development of China and the development of the nation. "Taiping Yulan" said: "Shennong's surname Jiang." "Jiang is Qiang. "Historical Records: Chronology of the Six Kingdoms": "Yu was born in Xiqiang. "Taiping Yulan" quoted Huang Fu Mi's "Imperial Century": "Bo Yu Xiahou's family, surnamed Ji, was born in Shinew...... Longer than Xiqiang, Xiqiangyi (people) also".

During the Three Kingdoms, the Zhou "Shu Benji" said: "Yu Benwen Mountain Guangrou County is also born in Shinew. "Guangrou is the Songpan area.

"Water Jing Note, Foaming Water" Guangrou County: "The county has Shiniu Township, and Yu was born." "The Qiang people live in Maozhou, Shiquan and Songpan, especially the relics, records and legends of Dayu in Yuli Town, Shiquan County.

During the Yin Shang period, the Qiang people had many tribes such as "Northern Qiang" and "Maqiang", and lived a nomadic life without a fixed place, and some Qiang people were engaged in agricultural production.

The Qiang people were the "Fang State" of the Yin Shang Dynasty, and there were Qiang leaders in the Shang Dynasty who held official positions; During the Wuding period, there were Qiang Ke and Qiang Li as sacrificial officials of the Shang Dynasty.

"The Book of Poetry: Ode to Shang": "In the past, there was a soup, since the other side of the Qiang, don't dare not come to enjoy, don't dare not come to the king's ......", praises the strength of the Yin Dynasty, but also reflects the close relationship between the Qiang people and the Yin Dynasty.

Jiang Yuan, the mother of King Wen of Zhou, was the daughter of the Jiang tribe, and Jiang was Qiang.

The alliance between Zhou and Jiang was an important condition for King Wu to destroy Shang, and after the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, some Qiang people surnamed Jiang were divided into the Central Plains, and Shen, Lü, and Xu were all surnamed Jiang.

This part of the Qiang people surnamed Jiang who entered the Central Plains during the Zhou Dynasty has basically merged with the Han people in China during the Western Zhou Dynasty.

After King Zhou Ping moved eastward, some Qiang Rong with Qiang people as the main body moved into the Central Plains in large numbers.

Many of the doctors of the Jin State relied on the strength of the Qiang Rong to grow up, and the Jin State was hegemonic because of the Herong, and a large number of Qiang people were also integrated into the Jin people.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qiang people who lived in the upper reaches of the Yellow River and the Huangshui Valley were still in a state of less grain, more livestock, and hunting.

After the Qiang people were captured and fled back to the Qiang land, they taught the Qiang people to farm and livestock, and the Qiang people further developed and divided after that.

In the Han Dynasty, the Qiang people were widely distributed, and there were two categories: Eastern Qiang and Western Qiang; The Qiang people in Shu built yaks and Tsing Yi Qiang countries.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Qiang people who were active in the upper reaches of the Yellow River in the west included Dangxiang Qiang, Xianlingqiang, Burning Dangdang Qiang, Zhong Cunqiang, Le Sister Qiang, Beilan Qiang, Dang Dang Qiang, Han Qiang, and Frozen Qiang, Qianren Qiang, Prison Sister Qiang, Fengyang Qiang, Xiangjie Qiang, Burning He Qiang, Gongtang Qiang, Quanwu Qiang, Heishui Qiang, Beihe Qiang, Saiwai Qiang, Baosai Qiang, Hequ Qiang, Fa Qiang, Wuqiang, Xiye, Puli Zhuqiang, Agou Qiang, Yak Qiang, Shenwolf Qiang, Qingyi Qiang, Baima Qiang, Bailan Qiang, Kelan Qiang, Tangchang Qiang, Deng Zhiqiang, Wenshan Qiang, Dangxiang Qiang, Baigou Qiang, and Gelin Qiang, Xidong Qiang, Duba Qiang, Baoba Qiang, Baicao Qiang, Black Tiger Qiang, Luodagu Qiang, Yang Qiang, Caopo Qiang, Qingpian Qiang, Silin Qiang, Lintu Qiang, Qiang, Zuofeng Qiang, Zizu Qiang, Lintai Qiang, Xiangren Qiang, Geyan Qiang, Victoria Qiang, Silkworm Ling Qiang more than 100 kinds of Qiang branches.

Moth Shasai Kobe babbled the names of more than a hundred Qiang tribes, and Liu Min admired his super memory; I couldn't help but ask: "Grandpa, you said it so well, does the Qiang people in the Songpan area have anything to do with the Dangxiang clan over there in Pingxia City!" ”

"Yes! The Qiang people on Songpan's side can be described as the ancestors of the Dangxiang clan, and the Qiang people in Songpan later merged with a part of the Xianbei tribe and divided into the Dangxiang clan; Some of the Dangxiang clan migrated to Pingxia City, and some of the ancestors still stayed in the Songpan area! ”

Liu Min clapped his hands and said, "Grandpa." What the little woman wants is the ins and outs of the Dangxiang clan, you are talking about it carefully! ”

Moth Cover Kobe Bryant picked up the small wine jug next to him, poured the wine cup full of wine, held it in his hand, sucked it into his mouth with a "squeak", hehe, smiled; Then he talked about the evolution process of the Dangxiang ethnic group, which was the Qiang ethnic group and merged with other ethnic groups to form a new ethnic group.

The Dangxiang clan was originally called Dangxiang Qiang, which was a descendant of Xiqiang in the Han Dynasty; Originally, the Dangxiang people lived in the upper reaches of the Yellow River.

At this time, the Murong clan of the Xianbei tribe in the north of the party established the Tuyuhun Kingdom.

Moth Shasai Kobe Bryant said that he took a sip of wine here and said with a smile: "Speaking of Tuyuhun Xianbei people, it's still quite interesting; Their rise and the establishment of their kingdom were caused by a small horse fight! ”

Liu Min actually knows that the Tuyuhun Xianbei tribe originated in the Northeast, but she respects the old Kobe; Pretending to be curious, he said: "It's very interesting, then grandpa will talk about it quickly!" ”

Moth Cover Kirby smirked, cleared his throat and continued his conversation.

In the northeast of China, there lived the ancient Xianbei Murong tribe, and Tuyuhun was the eldest son of the leader of this tribe, Shegui, who led 1,700 households.

The younger brother Murong, who was only 16 years old, succeeded to the throne of Khan in 284 AD due to his noble status.

Soon, the horses of Murong and Tuyuhun fought on the pasture, and the brothers had a dispute over this; Tugu Hun led his troops to the west.

The westward migration of the Tuyuhun people was an arduous and long-distance journey of 30 years, which was during the period of the two Jin Dynasty and the Sixteen Kingdoms in Chinese history.

The Two Jin Dynasty and the Sixteen Kingdoms are another troubled era after the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and it is another era in which the heroes rise together.

But this time, the protagonists of the Central Plains are horseback peoples from the north: Xianbei, Xiongnu, Qiang, Di, Qian, etc.

These ethnic groups roared from the northern grasslands, northeast, and northwest of China, and established 16 small countries on the vast land of China.

The Tuyuhun Kingdom, established by the Tuyuhun people on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, was another influential minority regime in addition to the Sixteen Kingdoms.

After being mysteriously guided to the west by the herd of horses, the Tuyuhun people set out from their rich hometown in Liaodong without hesitation, trekking all the way to the west, passing through most of China to the upper reaches of the Yellow River; At this time, another Xianbei Tuoba tribe happened to have a civil strife, and the Xianbei Tuyuhun tribe established itself here.

More than ten years later, Tuoba Xianbei is strong again, one and the other; The two tribes of the Xianbei people advanced to the areas inhabited by the Qiang people and gradually merged, and some of them formed the Dangxiang tribe.

The southern part of the Dangxiang ethnic group is the Tubo ethnic group, and the eastern part is the Sui and Tang dynasties; The west is the Western Regions, and the Dangxiang clan that survives in the gap between the three powerful clans is also called Dangxiang Qiang.

The most powerful tribe of Dangxiang Qiang is the Tuoba Department, and the Xianbei people also have the Tuoba Department; After the integration, the Dangxiang Qiang absorbed elements of multiple ethnic groups and tribes to form a new nation, the Dangxiang clan.

In the further development, the Dangxiang ethnic group integrated with the Danchang, Deng Zhi and other ethnic groups, and their residence bordered the Tibetan Plateau in Tibet......
