Foolish dreams: Nanliang established a country

About Chapter 63 Story Introduction: During this period when the Xianbei Tuoba Tribe, under the leadership of the leader Tuoba Gui, boasted about the Houyan Empire, occupied most of the Kanto region, and moved the capital to Pingcheng, the close relatives of the Xianbei Tuoba Tribe, who surrendered to the Houliang regime in the northwest region, were also under the leadership of the leader Bald Wugu, taking advantage of the mutual conquest between the Houliang regime and the Western Qin regime in full swing, and gradually annexed the Xianbei tribes in the Hexi region and established the Southern Liang regime. Since then, the Nanliang regime has been stable.

The protagonist in this story, the Xianbei Bald Hair Department, is actually a tribe of the Xianbei ethnic group with the same origin as the Xianbei Tuoba Tribe, bald hair and Tuoba are completely two different transliterations of the same Xianbei words, and the history books are not clear about the origin of the Xianbei Bald Hair Department, I think the Xianbei Bald Hair Department can migrate to the Hexi region, and it is very likely that the Xianbei Murong Department was on the rise at that time, and its descendants Murong Tuyuhun led the tribe to move west to establish a tribal alliance The country Tuyuhun has similarities. Even the bald department is also very likely to come from the descendants of the head of the Xianbei Tuoba department, and the strength of the Xianbei bald department should be close to the strength of the Murong Tuguhun department, but in the Western Jin Dynasty, the rebellion launched by the leader of the Xianbei bald hair department was suppressed by the Western Jin Dynasty, and the Xianbei bald department was also temporarily hit and suppressed, and it was silent in the Hexi region for decades.

However, the Xianbei bald hair department continued to forge ahead in the ordeal to the end of the Sixteen Kingdoms period, and began to embark on the road of independent statehood, and because the area where the Xianbei bald hair department lived was relatively close to the core area of the Central Plains culture, so, under the rule of the former Liang regime and the Later Liang regime, the overall strength of the Xianbei bald hair department has made great progress, and a few years after the establishment of the Later Liang regime, it began to rise by taking the opportunity of the Hou Liang regime and the Western Qin regime to compete for hegemony in the northwest region, and at that time as the leading boss in the northwest region, However, because its main tribe gradually completed the sinicization, the Later Liang regime was defeated in the hegemony of the Western Qin regime established by the Xianbei beggar tribe in the period of continuous integration of ethnic integration, and the overall national strength of the Later Liang regime also began to decline, and the national identity of its main tribe disappeared, and its internal rebellion and coup d'état were about to be staged.

Therefore, the Xianbei Bald Tribe, which was in the period of transition from a nomadic way of life to a settled way of life, had an excellent opportunity to establish a state and become king, and the Nanliang regime was established. And we can see from the Xianbei Bald Department and the Xianbei Beggar Department that they established political power in the northwest region respectively, and the northwest region has been a nomadic paradise for nomads who have retreated from the hegemony of the northern Mongolian steppe since ancient times, and it can be called the back garden of the northern Mongolian steppe, because the northwest region is far away from the northern Mongolian steppe where there are many nomads and war-torn northern Mongolian steppe, and there are some steppe areas in the geographical environment, although there is no northern Mongolian steppe that is more suitable for large-scale grazing by nomads. However, it is also possible to accommodate a certain number of nomadic tribes to live and develop here.

In fact, today, most of the ethnic minorities living in the northwest of our country have most of their ancestors from the Mongolian steppe in the north in ancient China, but since ancient times, the northwest region has been the main transportation route between our Central Plains Dynasty and Western countries, known as the Silk Road, so these nomads who migrated from the Mongolian steppe to the northwest region have evolved into what they are today after thousands of years of migration and integration. Many of the ethnic minorities in Northwest China are of Central Asian and even European ancestry, so the ethnic minorities in Northwest China have preserved their ethnic characteristics with Western colors. From this, we can also see that today, it is basically difficult to find pure ancestors in history among the 56 ethnic groups in our country.

And the Xianbei bald tribe we are talking about now and the Xianbei beggar tribe we talked about before, as well as the Xiongnu Fuqu tribe that we are about to talk about, and some of the tribes of other nomadic tribes annexed by these tribes, are actually nomadic people who migrated from the Mongolian steppe in the north to the northwest region, and the tribes of these nomads were annexed by more powerful tribes in the process of development in the northwest region, but the powerful tribes in the northwest region are also subject to the geographical environment of the northwest region. It was difficult to obtain more prosperous opportunities, so the regimes established by these tribes were often relatively weak and difficult to compete with the Central Plains Dynasty. When the Central Plains dynasty was strong, these small regimes established by these nomads in the northwest could only face the fate of being annexed. However, during the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms, the Central Plains region was already full of holes, and the Central Plains regime became a tool for the nomads to complete the sinicization, and it became a chaotic situation where you sang and I appeared, so this gave the nomads in the northwest an excellent opportunity to build a country.

When China's history entered the end of the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms, several countries in the northwest coexisted, and they all existed for more than ten years.

And we know that in the early middle and early period of the Sixteen Kingdoms period, because the Qianliang regime established by the Zhang family maintained the stability and development of the northwest region for a long time, these nomads in the northwest region were not very strong, but in this period, not only the tribes began to flourish in a stable political environment, but also had a large number of contact with the advanced Central Plains culture, so these tribes without exception chose to embark on the road of sinicization. In the northwest region, the Xianbei Murong Department is far away from the Liangzhou region and even farther away from the core area of the Central Plains culture, so the Tuyuhun regime established by the Xianbei Murong Department is basically still in the primitive country of the nature of tribal alliances, and it is precisely because of the remote geographical location of the Tuyuhun regime and the lack of acceptance of the Central Plains culture that its tribe has existed until the Tang Dynasty, and the main tribe of the Xianbei Murong tribe in the Central Plains has long disappeared without a trace. It can be seen how important regional culture is to the development of the nation.

We are talking about the Nanliang regime established by the Xianbei Bald Department in this chapter of the story, but it is within the jurisdiction of the Liangzhou region, so the Xianbei Bald Department has a large number of contacts with the Central Plains culture, and its tribes have also begun to settle down, and quickly entered the beginning of the integration period and the continued integration period of the ethnic integration of the Sixteen Kingdoms period, the Nanliang regime began to try its best to speed up the process of its sinicization from the date of its establishment, so for the Nanliang regime at this time, accelerate the process of sinicization, It is necessary to occupy the core area of the Liangzhou region, Guzang, which is the Wuwei region of Gansu today, and then control the entire northwest region, and then seek opportunities to win the Central Plains, which is also the national strategy and tribal core interests of the Houliang regime, the Western Qin regime and the Northern Liang regime established by the Xiongnu Fuqu Department that we talked about earlier.

However, the national strategy of these small regimes in the northwest region seems simple and straightforward, but it is extremely difficult to implement because the development of the northwest region was still in its infancy during the Sixteen Kingdoms period. Even today, our country is still in the stage of the national strategy for the large-scale development of the western region, and the northwest and northeast regions are still relatively backward regions of our country. Moreover, the northwest region is limited by the geographical environment, and the regime established in the northwest region since ancient times is hardly able to compete with the Central Plains Dynasty. I think about it, maybe only the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the rise of the Qin State in the Tianshui area of Gansu Province completed the historical task of unifying the six countries, and finally succeeded in winning the Central Plains, since the Qin Dynasty, there are almost no who can win the Central Plains from the northwest region, and the most outstanding achievement may be only the Western Xia Dynasty established in the Northern Song Dynasty during the Northern Song Dynasty to be able to confront the Northern Song Dynasty that emphasized literature and suppressed military force at that time, but it can only bow down in front of the wealthy Northern Song Dynasty to buy peace with money, and the Western Xia Dynasty has not been able to win the Central Plains until the death of the country. Therefore, these small regimes established in the northwest region during the Sixteen Kingdoms period could only take advantage of the disintegration of the Central Plains Dynasty and have no time to look westward, and fight around occupying Guzang and dominating the Liangzhou region. The ultimate fate of these small regimes can only be annexed by the Central Plains Dynasty, dominate the northwest, and win the national strategy of the Central Plains, which can only be realized in a dream.

It can be seen from this that it is basically extremely difficult for the Nanliang regime established by the Xianbei Bald Department to make a difference, so the Nanliang regime is not much in the history books we can see, not only the Nanliang regime, but also the end of the Sixteen Kingdoms period, these small regimes established in the northwest region, most of our current history lovers basically know very little, and even say that many history lovers today are unheard of for the nomadic heroes of the bald black and lonely and begging for Qiangui. So much so that we are not familiar with the history of the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms and do not understand it. Only the big words of Wuhu Chaohua can remain in people's minds, and they will disdain to say that this is not the history of the suffering of the Chinese nation, and there is nothing worth knowing. In fact, what people don't know now is that they don't know how much blood of ancient nomads flows in their own bloodline, how many clan cultures of ancient nomads are precipitated in their own surnames, and how many traces of ancient nomads have been left in their appearance. Because of the absurdity and cruelty of the killing order in this historical period, in just two years, the Ran Wei regime collapsed. We are sparing no effort to talk about this period of history, just to let everyone know the truth of this period of history, and let everyone know that the characteristics of the Chinese nation are by no means narrow-minded, selfish, and vitriol, but inclusive and inclusive.
