The country established on the basis of more than 60,000 people is only a very, very small country in the history of China, of course, there are also countries that are smaller than the Xia Kingdom that is about to be established, such as the small countries of the Zhou Dynasty, and it is estimated that some small countries are not as large as the population of the Xia Kingdom.

Su Yan also wants the Dragon Tribe to have more population, but this is very difficult, the first reason is that the Dragon Tribe has been established for a relatively short time, only twenty-three years, if the Dragon Tribe can be given another twenty-three years, then the population of the Dragon Tribe will at least triple on the current basis.

The second reason is the limitation of the times, in this era, all the tribes on the earth together only have a population, at most five million, that is also distributed around the "mother river" on the planet, put on the side of the Yellow River, even if the dragon tribe is added, the total population of all the tribes on both sides of the Yellow River is difficult to exceed 500,000.

The third reason is that the dragon tribe itself, with a population of more than 60,000, which is already very much for other tribes, equivalent to four to five day tribe camps or fishing tribes, the more population of the dragon tribe, the more troublesome it is to manage, with the increase of cities, Su Yan will also set up a secondary management organization, it is better to transform the dragon tribe into a country now, and everything will start again.

There was still a month before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and Su Yan wrote a notice and sent it to all the cities of the Dragon Tribe.

For the establishment of the country, only the high-level and middle-level of the Dragon Tribe know better, and ordinary people only heard a little bit of news, and this announcement is to inform all the people of the Dragon Tribe that "the Dragon Tribe will become the Xia Kingdom", and at the same time list the meaning of "country".

When the announcement states that when the "Dragon Tribe" is changed to "Xia Kingdom", there will not be much change within the Dragon Tribe, and it is basically just a change in name.

The final announcement also stated that a large military parade would be held on the day of the founding of the country, and that the selection of adult male clansmen in each city would now begin, with an average of 300 men per city.

When the notice was issued to the cities and was known to all the Dragon Tribesmen, most of the people did not have much feeling about the transformation of the "Dragon Tribe" into the "Xia Kingdom", and there were not many internal changes anyway, and there was not much impact on their lives, only the name change.

The last item in the announcement was the selection of adult male clansmen to participate in the military parade.

"I want to go to the big parade!" One by one, the adult male clansmen secretly made up their minds that it had become an honor to participate in the military parade, and only strong soldiers could participate in the military parade and be reviewed by the king.

There are more than 8,200 adult male clansmen in the Dragon Tribe, and on average, only one out of every three adult male clansmen can stand out and become a member of the king's review.

Su Yan handed over the task of selecting soldiers to the military divisions of each city, first selecting enough soldiers, and then taking a little time every day for queue training, and going to Zhongjing City in the last few days of the founding of the People's Republic of China for the final training rehearsal.

In fact, queue training is not new to the dragon tribesmen, and the soldiers of the field/war army and the city defense army often conduct queue training, and the tribesmen of the reserve army also often conduct queue training in winter.

It doesn't need to be of the kind of modern Chinese/military, just tidy.

In the palace of Zhongjing City, Su Yan gathered the three daughters of Meihua, Eyue, Xiangxiang and ten young girls and handed them an important task.

"There is a very important task entrusted to you, the Xia Kingdom is about to be established, I need you to embroider a national flag for the Xia Kingdom, this is the style, embroider a big 'Xia' character with golden thread on black cloth, and then embroider a dragon around the 'Xia' character with golden thread." As he spoke, Su Yan took out a sketch of the national flag.

The sketch sets the national flag three feet long and two feet wide, the word "Xia" is majestic and atmospheric, and the dragon around the word "Xia" is even more vivid, mighty and domineering.

Over the years, Su Yan's calligraphy and painting skills are the highest in the Dragon Tribe, and in modern times, even if not at the master level, it is not far from the master.

Hearing the task assigned by her husband, Eyue said with a smile: "Husband, this is very simple, we can embroider it in less than a day." ”

Sewing clothes is a technique that all the female tribesmen of the Dragon Tribe must master, and the girls are also exposed to relevant knowledge early and sew some small objects by hand, and there are special textile classes and embroidery classes in the senior school, and every female student has to learn.

Su Yan thought for a while and replied: "I'll take a look at the embroidery first, if it's qualified, I'll embroider more, and then every city of the Dragon Tribe will hang a flag." ”

Su Yan explained the task, and the three girls and the ten girls also began to get busy, bringing a few batches of black cloth, and then bringing golden threads, and the women sat in a circle, first compared the sketches, and then put down the needle.

On the other side, after Su Yan handed over the task to the women, he suddenly thought of a very important thing, which had something to do with the national flag, since the national flag was there, should there be special dragon robes and phoenix robes.

Su Yan turned around and went to the study, drew a sketch first, and waited for the women to embroider the national flag on several sides, and then handed over this task to them, anyway, it didn't need to be complicated, and it could be completed before the day of the founding of the country.

Dragon robe, phoenix robe, dragon tribe only dragon, but no phoenix, Chinese call themselves the descendants of the dragon, the status of the dragon can be imagined, but the status of the phoenix is not low, often use the dragon to represent men, phoenix to represent women, dragon and phoenix fetuses are a man and a woman.

Legend has it that the dragon totem is the fusion of the totems of various tribes, and the phoenix totem probably comes like this, and the phoenix totem can also be said to be the bird totem.

The Yanhuang Tribal Alliance is a dragon totem, and the Jiuli Tribal Alliance is a bird totem, and the two tribal alliances fought, and in the end the Yanhuang Tribal Alliance won, and the Jiuli Tribal Alliance was defeated, but it was not destroyed.

A momentary victory does not mean an eternal victory, a momentary defeat does not mean that there is no chance to turn the tables, and the battle between the dragon and the phoenix has not stopped.

The Xia Dynasty was still respected by the dragon, and when it came to the Shang Dynasty, "the Mandate of Heaven Xuanniao, descended and gave birth to Shang", the Shang Dynasty was a bird totem, so the truth that the Shang Dynasty replaced the Xia Dynasty was actually the victory of the phoenix totem over the dragon totem, and then the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the phoenix Ming Qishan, in the final analysis, was still the internal dispute of the bird totem.

The Zhou Dynasty was established, divided into eight hundred princes, among which the totem of the Chu State was the phoenix bird, and finally the Qin people who worshiped the dragon established the Qin Dynasty of great unity, but was overthrown by the overlord of Chu, and the phoenix totem was established again.

It's a pity that Liu Bang had the last laugh in the dispute between Chu and Han, Liu Bang was born as a commoner, and among a group of heroes, there are not a few nobles, they are pragmatists, for dragons and phoenixes, as long as it is beneficial to themselves, they will all use it.

In this case, the dragon totem and the phoenix totem began to merge, the dragon and the phoenix were auspicious, but the ancient society was a patriarchal society, when the dragon represented the male phoenix and the female situation was set, the status of the dragon and the phoenix can be imagined.

[The dispute between the dragon and the phoenix is what Heng Yi learned from reading the book "Treasures of the World", looking for inspiration, this is true]
