A large red glow shrouded the watershed, and several black Connabo yasaurs hovered and roared from time to time, these bloodthirsty wurms searched the vast plains for the prisoners exiled from Babel City, ready to devour their flesh and suck their blood.

On the towering gate of Babel City, a charming woman in red stood there with her right hand holding a black staff, looking out into the ethereal distance, without any expression on her face, or joy or sadness, none of this.

She was one of the thirteen trials, Schindler Alista.

Behind him, the law enforcer Soulless walked over with the Imperial Divine Sword in his hand, facing the sunlight and shining his face with a clear yin and yang, and his eyes were resolute.

"Lord Schindler's Trial." Soulless called softly and came behind her.

"Did you hear that?" Schindler turned around, looked at Soulless and whispered.

"What?" Soulless didn't dare to look at her.

"The sound of the sky and the earth trembling, and the cry of all things." Schindler said faintly, and the black staff in his hand slammed into the ground and drew a circle.

"Yes...... In war, there will always be people who die. "Soulless is a little overwhelmed.

"I hate war."

In the later period of the reign of Emperor Yan Shennong, the tribes of the Central Plains attacked each other, and the war continued. The Yellow Emperor took advantage of the time to defeat different tribes, and the leaders of the other tribes also joined one after another, thus forming a situation in which Emperor Yan, Emperor Huangdi, and Chiyou people stood together. The Yellow Emperor lived in the Central Plains. Emperor Yan is in the west, west of Taihang Mountain. Chiyou is the monarch of Jiuli and lives in the east. Emperor Yan and Chiyou fought for the lower reaches of the Yellow River, but Emperor Yan failed, fled north, and asked the Yellow Emperor for help. The Yellow Emperor fought nine battles with Chiyou in three years, all of which were unsuccessful. In the end, the Yellow Emperor gathered on Zhuolu to fight Chi You, and the battle was very fierce. The Yellow Emperor, with the assistance of the general Fenghou and Li Mu, finally captured and killed Chiyou, won the victory, and unified the tribes of the Central Plains. [4-5] The capital was built in Zhuolu. After the war, the Yellow Emperor led his troops into the Jiuli region, and then at the top of Mount Tai, he met all the tribes in the world, and held a grand ceremony to seal the Zen and sacrifice heaven and earth. Suddenly, a big worm and a big mole appeared in the sky, and the color was still yellow, so he called the king with Tude, and the color of the soil was yellow, so he was called the Yellow Emperor. [6] The Yellow Emperor was located in 2697 BC. Taoists regard this year as the first year of the Taoist calendar. [7-8]

There is a way to govern the country

The heyday of the Yellow Emperor[9]

After the Yellow Emperor established the world, he formulated the national official system, such as the central official named Yun, the one in charge of clan affairs called Qingyun, and the one in charge of military affairs called Jinyun, and set up the left and right eunuchs to supervise the tribes in the world. Fenghou, Limu, Changxian, and Dahong were appointed ministers to govern the people. He often sacrificed to the ghosts and gods of the mountains and rivers. He calculated and formulated the calendar with the yarrow. One of the merits of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor is the "Five Kinds of Art". "Five kinds" refers to the five grains of "millet, millet, soybean, wheat and rice". According to ancient historical legends, Shennong's clan could only grow millet and millet, while the Yellow Emperor could grow a variety of grain crops, indicating that the Yellow Emperor made the primitive agriculture at that time have further development. [10-12]?Later, in the tribe surnamed Ji, whose ancestor was the Yellow Emperor, there was a leader with outstanding achievements in agriculture, Qi. Legend has it that he was the ancestor of the Zhou people and was revered as Houji. He knows the different soils, he knows how to pull weeds, and he knows how to pick good seeds. [13-14] [15]

The distribution of prehistoric farming settlements in China shows the characteristics of living along small rivers. It reflects the dependence of early agriculture on rivers for water use, and according to archaeological findings, the wells first appeared in the period of the 1st and 2nd layers of the Hemudu site, which corresponds to the lower layer of the Songze culture, and its 14c dating is about 5700 years ago. This is a swampy area with a high water level in the Yangtze River Delta, and it is easy to see water without digging deeply, so it is not surprising that wells were first invented here. In the Yellow River basin, where the water level is low, it is more difficult to dig wells, and the significance of wells for agriculture is far from comparable to that of the wells in the Yangtze River Delta. However, about 5000-4000 years ago, wells were generally found in the cultural sites of the Longshan period in the Yellow River Basin, which indicates that the wells have played a significant role in the economic life of the Yellow River Basin. For example, the ancient wells found at the site of Luoyang in Henan and the site of Baiying in Tangyin, Henan, are about 4,000 years old, which is basically consistent with the era of the Yellow Emperor. The development of agricultural production in the era of the Yellow Emperor also laid down the basic direction of the later development of Chinese culture, forming a unique Chinese civilization based on agricultural civilization. [16]

Ascend to heaven by dragon

The Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven by a dragon

In the later years of the Yellow Emperor, he invented the tripod. When the first tripod was cast, a dragon suddenly flew down from the sky, the dragon had mighty eyes and long, shining silver dragon whiskers, and the whole dragon body was filled with golden light, and when it came, it seemed to bring ten thousand golden forges, covering the entire sky.

The Yellow Emperor and the ministers were very surprised, the dragon slowly approached the Yellow Emperor, his eyes became very gentle, and suddenly said to the Yellow Emperor: "The Emperor of Heaven is very pleased to see that you have made another step forward in Chinese civilization, so he specially sent me to take you to heaven to meet the Emperor of Heaven." When the Yellow Emperor heard this, he nodded, stepped on the dragon's back, and said to the ministers: "The Emperor of Heaven is going to summon me, you take care and see you again." "Please let us follow you!" After the ministers finished speaking, they rushed up, hoping to climb on the back of the dragon and go with the Yellow Emperor. But the dragon writhed and threw them all down.

The golden dragon wore the Yellow Emperor and flew into the sky quickly, and disappeared into the clouds and mist in an instant. The ministers had no choice but to watch the Yellow Emperor ascend to heaven. One of the ministers looked at the sky and said thoughtfully, "Not everyone can go up to it!" Only a person as great as the Yellow Emperor is qualified! In order to commemorate this emperor, later people called the place where the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven "Dinghu". After the dragon went to Dinghu, he died because of the emperor who said "dragon went to Dinghu". [17]

3 anecdotal allusions

Legend of the God of War

According to legend, when the Yellow Emperor ascended the throne, Chiyou had 81 brothers, who were claimed to be the descendants of the gods. These 81 people are all beasts and human faces, with copper heads and iron foreheads, without grains, and only eat river stones. They disobeyed the orders of the Yellow Emperor, brutalized Li Shu, and killed innocents. He also made a scepter and a sword to carry a crossbow, and made the Yellow Emperor an enemy. The Yellow Emperor then obeyed the will of the people and recruited soldiers and horses from all walks of life to crusade against Chiyou. After 15 decades, he failed to defeat Chi You, so he had to retreat. For this reason, the Yellow Emperor was worried about Zhongzhong, and hoped day and night that he could have a sage to assist him to destroy Chiyou. One night, he dreamed that a strong wind blew away the dirt of the world. Then he dreamed that a man with a crossbow in his hand drove tens of thousands of sheep. When I woke up, I felt strange. Secretly thought, the wind, the command and the Lord; Dirt, it is the soil that is dissolved and cleared, is there a person in the world who has a surname? The crossbow of a thousand jun is to hope to go far, drive tens of thousands of sheep, and be a shepherd for goodness. So he sent his subordinates to search for these two people everywhere in the world. As a result, after finding the wind in the sea corner, he found Riki in the riverside. The Yellow Emperor took the queen of the wind as the phase and the force as the general, and began to attack Chiyou on a large scale. In the suburbs of Zhuolu, the two armies set up a battle in formation. Chiyoubu fell a hundred miles of fog, and it did not disperse for three days and three nights, so that the soldiers could not distinguish the direction. The Yellow Emperor ordered the wind queen to build a guide car. At the same time, the Queen Mother of the West also sent a Xuannu to teach him the secret of the three palaces and the foundation of the five-tone strategy. After the wind, it evolved the method of Dunjia. At this point, the war resumed in Jizhou. Chi You led the charm of the dragon, invited the wind and the rain, and ordered the dragon to store water to attack the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor invited the world's female servants to stop the rain in the eastern wilderness, and the Li Shiqiang soldiers of the northern mountains drove the dragon to the South Pole. In the end, he killed Chiyou, but Chiyou was immortal, so he was buried everywhere so that he could not finish the corpse. Later, after Shennong, Yugang and the Yellow Emperor competed for the world. The Yellow Emperor used the Zhou bird and the eagle trembling as the banner, and the bear, the black tiger and the leopard as the forerunner, and fought with Yugang in the field of Banquan. After three battles, he defeated Yugang. Later, he personally led his troops and horses to conquer the princes who refused to submit to the great court. After a total of 52 wars, the world began to be unified.

Immortals teach

One day, the Yellow Emperor was watching the scenery with the ministers on the Luoshui River, and suddenly saw a big bird holding Bian Tu and putting it in front of him, and the Yellow Emperor hurriedly bowed down. Look at the bird, the shape is like a crane, the head of a chicken, the beak of a swallow, the neck of a turtle, the shape of a dragon, the wings, the tail of a fish, all five colors. The words in the picture are the six words of prudence, benevolence and righteousness, and benevolence. The Yellow Emperor had never seen this bird, so he went to ask the elders. The elder told him that the male of this bird is called a phoenix, and the female is called a phoenix. The morning is called Dengchen, the day is Shangxiang, the evening is Guichang, and the night is Baochang. As soon as the phoenix comes out, it shows that the world is peaceful. It is a sign of great auspiciousness. Later, the Yellow Emperor dreamed that two dragons came out of the Yellow River with a white picture and offered it to him. The Yellow Emperor was puzzled and came to ask Tian Lao again. Tian Lao replied that this was a precursor to the coming out of the Hetu Luo book. So the Yellow Emperor and the elders swam between the rivers and Luo, sank in the river, killed three animals and fasted. It started with three days of fog. After that, it rained heavily for seven days and seven nights. Then there was a yellow dragon holding a picture from the river, and the Yellow Emperor knelt down to take it. I saw the five-color Bi Gu on the picture, the white picture and the blue leaf Zhu Wen, which is the river Tuluo book. So the Yellow Emperor began to tour the world and enshrine Mount Tai. He heard that there was an immortal named Guangchengzi in Kongtong Mountain, so he went to ask him for advice. Guang Chengzi said: "Since you ruled the world, the clouds do not gather and the rain falls, and the grass and trees do not wither. The sun and the moon are shining, and there is more and more scarcity. And if the heart of a man is enlightened, where are you worthy of me talking to you about the way? "After the Yellow Emperor came back, he no longer bothered about political affairs. I built a hut with a mat in it, and I spent 3 months reflecting there. Then he went to Guang Chengzi and asked. At that time, Guangchengzi was lying with his head facing south, and the Yellow Emperor walked up to him on his knees and asked him how to achieve immortality. Guang Chengzi suddenly got up and said, "This is a very good question! Then he told him the essence of the Tao: "The essence of the Tao, stealing the darkness, the extreme of the Tao, faint and silent." Ignore and listen, hold your mind and be quiet. The form will be self-correct, and it will be quiet and clear; No labor makeup, no shake makeup, can live forever. The eyes see nothing, the ears hear nothing, and the heart knows nothing, so that the gods and forms are one, and then they can live forever. After speaking, Guangchengzi gave him a volume of "The Book of Nature". [22]

After the Yellow Emperor asked Guangchengzi, he climbed Wangwu Mountain and got the Danjing. And ask the Xuannu and * about the method of cultivating and maintaining health. Then, back to Jinyun Hall to practice, he picked the first mountain copper, cast nine tripods under Jing Mountain, the tripod was just cast, there was a dragon, long beard hanging to welcome the Yellow Emperor into the fairyland. The Yellow Emperor immediately mounted the dragon body and flew away. A few ministers also wanted to ascend to immortality with him, so they hurriedly grabbed the dragon beard. As a result, the dragon's whiskers broke, and the ministers fell to the ground again. It is said that the dragon's whiskers were transformed by those dragon's whiskers. [23]

Invention of drum making

The drum is an ancient percussion instrument, and from the literature, the production of the drum is the first to recommend the ancient legend of the Yellow Emperor taking the "Kui Pi" drum. Kui, is a mythical and legendary one-legged god and monster animal, "Shan Hai Jing - Great Wilderness East Classic" describes Kui is a mythical beast in ancient times, born in the East China Sea Liubo Mountain, "like a cow, the body and no horns, one foot, in and out of the water there must be wind and rain, its light is like the sun and the moon, its sound is like thunder, its name is called Kui". Later generations believe that the so-called dragon is actually a giant crocodile, which hits its belly with its tail and makes beautiful music, which is really cute to say, which shows the harmony between man and nature in ancient times. And with the hardness of crocodile skin, even if it can't be "heard for 500 miles" after being made into a drum, it must be very loud to beat. [24-25]

The god of religion

The Yellow Emperor is a legendary ancient emperor, a Gu Immortal revered by Taoism. Its prototype is the head of an emirate of the Huaxia ethnic group, because of its great contribution to the development of the nation, it has been praised for a long time by future generations. However, because it is too old, most of the rumors left behind are confusing and difficult to understand. However, by the time of the Yellow Emperor in the Warring States Period, many people compiled and added to those rumors, and finally created a generation of emperors. The Yellow Emperor had the son of Shaodian, the monarch of Xiong Guo. He once defeated Emperor Yan in Piquan, and punished Zhuolu in Zhuolu, and the princes respected him as the Son of Heaven, and became the Yellow Emperor on behalf of Shennong. Then, he set up hundreds of officials, made regulations, ordered the ministers to build palaces, make clothes, make boats and cars, and invented the law calendar, writing, arithmetic, music, etc., so as to form a prosperous situation. At the same time as the image of the Yellow Emperor and the emperor of the Yellow Emperor, some classics are shaping the image of the Yellow Emperor's immortals. It can be said that from the Warring States period to the early Han Dynasty, the Yellow Emperor basically had the image of an emperor and an immortal. [26-27]

Zhang Ling founded the Five Buckets of Rice Dao, respecting Lao Tzu as the ancestor and the Yellow Emperor as the ancient immortals. [28] Thus it was followed. Therefore, after that, the Taoist book still continued to decorate the Yellow Emperor as the ancient immortals. In the same book, "Extreme Words", the story of the Yellow Emperor's traversal of famous mountains, visiting the truth and asking questions, and finally attaining enlightenment and ascending to heaven. [29-30]

In the old days, some areas tried to build the Yellow Emperor Temple or Xuanyuan Temple, and most of them were enshrined as ancient immortals. "Shanxi Tongzhi" contains a number of Yellow Emperor temples, which "one is in Quwo County, the Ming orthodox people dig the ground to get the ancient monument... His Yin praise said: 'Morality is towering, sound and teaching are dissolved, and heaven and earth are long, and hundreds of millions are endless. 'Because of the temple. There are also Yellow Emperor Temples in Shaanxi and other places, and there are Yellow Emperor Palaces and Xuanyuan Temples in Taoist palaces. For example, there are three emperors in the temple of Fuxi, Shennong, and the Yellow Emperor, and there is also the Xuanyuan Temple dedicated to the Yellow Emperor.

The Yellow Emperor is a tribal alliance, according to the "Spring and Autumn Calendar Preface" said that a total of 10 generations, 1520 ("Yiwei Jilantu" years are the same), King Wu of Zhou was named the descendant of the Yellow Emperor Yu Zhu.

Taoist Yellow Emperor

There are roughly five situations of the Yellow Emperor referred to by Taoism: first, the central central Yuan Ling Yuanjun; the second is the Central Yellow Emperor; the third is the Yellow Emperor in Japan; the fourth is the Yellow Emperor of Zhongyue; Fifth, the Yellow Emperor, a historical legend. This is the historical legend of the Yellow Emperor. [31]

The Yellow Emperor's original priesthood was the god of thunder. However, after the rise of the Yellow Emperor to the god of thunder, he was the central emperor and the most respected. This is consistent with the ancient Miao song saying that the opponent of their ancestor "Ge Chi Ye Lao" (possibly Chi You) was Lei Gong. Probably the Yellow Emperor and Feng Bo were originally princes of the Shennong clan and served as Lei's witch marshal. [32-33]

Taoism has many scriptures passed down to the Yellow Emperor, such as the Yellow Emperor Jiuding Shendan Sutra, the Yellow Emperor's Inner Scripture, the Dragon and Tiger Sutra, the Yin Fu Sutra and so on. In the "True Spirit Position Karma Map", the rank of the gods is arranged, and he is called "Emperor Xuanyuan Chengdi of the Star Garden", which is listed on the left side of the third god rank. [34]

Glamorous Spirit

Portrait of the Yellow Emperor (2 photos)

About 4,000 years ago, the two emperors of Yan and Huang fought for the world, and after the son of Emperor Yan was captured, he became an entourage of the Yellow Emperor, and later found an opportunity to escape, returned to Emperor Yan's side, and strongly persuaded Emperor Yan to resume the war and wash away the shame of Snow Hanquan. However, Emperor Yan was already old and weak, and he couldn't bear to let the people suffer because he started a war, so he didn't follow Chi You's advice. Chi You had no choice but to mobilize his brothers, and gathered the Miao people in the south, as well as ghosts and ghosts such as ghosts and ghosts in the mountains, forests, and rivers, and led a large army to challenge the Yellow Emperor under the banner of Emperor Yan. The Yellow Emperor couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that Chi You had launched a large army, and he wanted to influence Chi You with benevolence and righteousness, but Chi You was not moved, and the two sides started a big battle in the battle for deer. Chi You used magic to set up a poisonous mist array and besieged the Yellow Emperor's army. However, the Yellow Emperor drove the guide car invented by the Emperor and commanded the army to rush out of the poisonous fog array. Chiyou sent the ghosts to fight, and the Yellow Emperor told the soldiers to blow the sound of the dragon with the horns of the bull horn, scaring away the ghosts.

It is said that the charm of the ghost is specialized in eating beautiful women, the appearance is mostly tall, red body, pointed ears, head and horns as the main characteristics, folklore in the wilderness of the deep mountains, the four fields under the mountain and many ancient forests. People who walk long distances, especially those who walk at night, often encounter mandrill ghosts and ghosts, all of which are made of wood, stone, birds, and beasts.

Named Xuanyuan

Due to the perennial nomadic life of migrants, all kinds of bulky things have to be carried by people, and every time they move, they bring great pain and inconvenience to the ancestors. When a woman gives birth to a child and the old man gets sick, it is even more like a day. The Yellow Emperor often sighed for this matter, but had to move.

Once, the Yellow Emperor led his ancestors to migrate to the Loess Plateau in the north. The forests are dense and the terrain is flat, making it easy to survive for a long time. They just settled down, one day suddenly the wind blows, the Yellow Emperor immediately ordered all the ancestors, everyone hugging the tree, one by one, to hide in case the wind swept away, the Yellow Emperor only cares about the safety of others, unexpectedly, the big hat on his head to cover the sun was blown off by the wind. He hurriedly grabbed a small tree and squatted down on the spot. The Yellow Emperor found that his large hoop hat was blown to the ground by the strong wind, and did not fall to the ground. What is the reason for this? The Yellow Emperor cut a branch, tied it into a circle, put it on the ground and pushed it forward, rolling less than a foot away and falling down. The Yellow Emperor has been a brilliant man since he was a child, and he pondered for a long time; Then, he made another circle, made a cross between the two circles, cut down a long branch, tied the two circles at both ends of the branch, and pushed them forward with force on the ground. Although it didn't fall this time, it didn't stop after rolling far. At this time, Chang Xian, Feng Hou, and Cangjie came together and asked what the Yellow Emperor was doing? The Yellow Emperor told the three counselors what had just happened. After the resourceful wind, he hurriedly peeled off a piece of bark, tied it to the crossbar in the middle of the two circles, and pulled it forward with one hand, and the two circles kept rolling without falling to the ground.

When the Yellow Emperor saw it, he suddenly laughed and came to his senses. He told Chang to tie two more of the same circles, and the four wooden circles were connected together, like four wheels, rolling forward steadily, and no longer afraid of falling to the ground. After looking at the wind, it seemed that his mind had also woken up, and he ordered him to go to the quarry first to get two round stone plates, and cut a hole in the middle. In less than half a day, two round stone plates were made. After the wind, a wooden stick is placed in the middle. A straw rope was tied to the middle of the stick, and Chang was told to pull it up first and run forward. followed a group of ancestors to watch the excitement. Cangjie hurriedly said to the Yellow Emperor: I will name this thing "car". The Yellow Emperor pondered for a long time and agreed.

In order to let people always remember Xuanyuan's merits, Cangjie consulted with the ministers; The life car is "Xuanyuan". Because the Yellow Emperor did not have an official name at that time, he named it "Xuanyuan" as the official name of the Yellow Emperor. This is the origin of "Xuanyuan".

Since the Yellow Emperor was embraced by the ancestors as a respected elder, there has not been a formal "title" The ministers have given the Yellow Emperor many honorific titles, and the Yellow Emperor did not agree. In the end, it was the Yellow Emperor who decided for himself. The Yellow Emperor found that the soil is yellow, the soil can give birth to all things, the soil is the only backer on which people depend, and the ancestors are yellow-skinned, so he determined that his honorific title should be called "Yellow Land". Since then, "Xuanyuan Huangdi" has been settled.

In the Yin Shang era, some literati felt that it was indecent to call their ancestors "Huangdi", and they changed "Huangdi" to "Yellow Emperor" under the pretext that "Di" and "Emperor" were homonyms. "Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor" has been used since then. Before the Qin Dynasty, the princes of all countries were afraid of violating the ancestral teachings and damaging the ancestors' morality, so they easily did not dare to call themselves "emperors", so they had to call themselves kings and hegemons. After Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, he considered himself to be the "Three Emperors" and the "Five Emperors", and called himself the "First Yellow Emperor". But he did not dare to use this "yellow", so he had to use the white king "Huang" [35]

4 famous battles

Battle of Hansen

The Battle of Hanquan was a battle for supremacy between two distant relatives within the Huaxia Group. In the pedigree of word of mouth, their ancestors are all daughter clans split from the Shaodian clan that is a marriage group with the Youqiao clan, one originated in Jishui, and the ancient lacquer water originated in the north-west of Linyou, Shaanxi, and entered Wei in today's martial arts. The other originated in Jiang Shui, in the upper reaches of Weishui in present-day Shaanxi, there is still a Qing Jiang River in Baoji, and the one made of ginger water is the Jiang clan. In the course of thousands of years of history, these two ancient clans have become increasingly prosperous and prosperous, splitting into many daughter clans and developing into many tribes. The Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, who appeared on the stage of history 5,000 years ago, are the descendants of the Ji and Jiang ancient tribes who developed eastward and arrived in present-day Hebei and Henan.

Because the two tribes involved in the war have strong strength, the scale of the war is quite spectacular, after the war, the Yellow Emperor led the "bear, the wolf, the wolf, the leopard, the pig, the tiger" six armies in the field of Hanquan and the Yan Emperor to open the battlefield, the six armies each hold their own worship as the symbol of the banner, the Yellow Emperor as the commander of the six also held a flag similar to the "Daxu", lined up the formation. First of all, Emperor Yan in the Yellow Emperor did not take precautions, preemptively, with fire siege, so that Xuanyuan outside the city often thick smoke billowing, covering the sky and the sun, Ying Long extinguished the flames with water, the Yellow Emperor commander drove Emperor Yan back to the valley of Hanquan, and ordered his soldiers to only fight with Emperor Yan and not hurt his life. In the Hanquan River Valley, seven large flags were erected, and the Seven Banners of Star Dou were opened. After the defeat of the Yan Emperor's fire battle, in the face of the Star Dou Seven Banners battle method, there was nothing to do, and he was defeated, hiding back in the camp and not daring to provoke. The Yellow Emperor admired Emperor Yan's medicine and farming techniques and was determined to join hands with him to create a civilized nation. He set up a formation outside the Yandi camp to train his troops, and the ever-changing formations emerged in endlessly, the Star Dou Seven Banner Formation, which dazzled the soldiers of the Yandi Emperor, and in the drill for more than three years, the combat effectiveness of each department was gradually enhanced, and the Yandi used the cliff head as a barrier, and could only wait and see the formation. However, in the past three years or so, the Yellow Emperor used the Star Dou Seven Banners Battle Method to train his troops as a cover, and at the same time sent men to dig day and night, digging the cave to the rear of the Yan Emperor's camp as early as possible. Suddenly, the Yellow Emperor's soldiers suddenly rushed out, attacked Emperor Yan's camp, and captured Emperor Yan alive. [36]

Battle of Jizhou

After Chiyou and Kuafu escaped, 21 of their 81 minor leaders were captured, and two of them, one named Manjiao and the other named Lishi, tried to escape, but was unsuccessful and was captured by Ying Long. Xuanyuan's subordinates unanimously agreed to kill the two of Manjiao and Lishi, but Xuanyuan thought: Don't rob others, let alone kill people casually. We should all treat each other with courtesy and coexist peacefully, and if you rob me and kill me, it will not benefit anyone. So it was decided to take all the prisoners, not one killed. And he ordered that food be distributed to all the captives. He also ordered Manjiao and Lishi to be responsible for bringing back all the wounded and sick captives. Chi You and Kuafu were shocked to see that Xuanyuan had released all the captives. Manjiao and Lishi repeatedly told Chiyou about Xuanyuan's benevolence and righteousness. When Chi You heard this, he angrily kicked away the brute horn and hacked the sharp stone with an axe, and Chi You was furious. The rest of the captives were terrified and secretly wept. Chi You also ordered Kua's father to escort all the captured people who Xuanyuan released back to Jizhou to build a city, and they were not allowed to contact other people, let alone meet their relatives. Chi You said how Xuanyuan brutally killed the captives, and he asked his subordinates to keep in mind this "blood debt", step up their martial arts training, and prepare for revenge. Chi You occupied the wife of the brute horn again, and the wife of the brute horn didn't know Chi You, so she beat Chi You again. Chiyou was so angry that he killed her. Thinking of this, the brute horn took advantage of the darkness and the silence to defect to Xuanyuan.

Xuanyuan and his ministers were furious when they heard about the suffering of the barbarians. According to the information provided by the barbarian horns, they believed that attacking Jizhou could only be outwitted, not hard. After three days and three nights, it was decided to seize Jizhou on September 9. After Chiyou found out that Manjiao was missing, he knew that there was a lot of bad luck, so he discussed with Kuafu, and handed over more than half of the troops stationed in Jizhou City to Kuafu to lead, quietly withdrew from the city, and ambushed in the field of Zhuolu, just in case. The army left in the city stepped up the smelting of copper and iron and held Jizhou. September 9 is Chung Yeung. Chiyou is most afraid of sunny days, and he climbed the Jizhou city wall to observe the movement early in the morning, he looked carefully from east to west, from south to north, and did not find any abnormal phenomena. As he was about to go down the city, he suddenly heard a cry for help in the distance outside the city. Chi You looked back and saw a group of women with disheveled hair, carrying things on their shoulders, shouting as they ran: "Help!" The Xuanyuan army is robbing people! Chi You looked into the distance again, and there were indeed dozens of Xuanyuan's subordinates, chasing after him, and he immediately ordered his subordinates guarding the city gate to open the city gate and let this group of fleeing women enter the city. He also ordered the army in the city to immediately raise their bows and shoot arrows to block the pursuit of Xuanyuan's army.

Battle of Zhuolu[21]

As soon as this group of fleeing women entered the city gate, they suddenly all became brave soldiers, and it turned out that they were Xuanyuan's army disguised as women. They held stone axes in their hands, slashed and slashed, and cut down the Chiyou soldiers guarding the city gate to the ground one by one. The Xuanyuan army, which was secretly ambushed outside Jizhou City at night, heard the sound of the horn and knew that the city gate had been opened, so they jumped out of the grass and woods and rushed into Jizhou City. When Chi You saw it, he knew that he had a plan, and he didn't have time to resist, so he quickly led the remnants of the army to escape from the north gate. Although Xuanyuan and Chiyou had fought more than ten battles in Jizhou before, they failed to win, and it only took one morning today to break Jizhou. In this battle, the casualties of the Chiyou army were not large, and the biggest loss was the copper and iron smelted into the smelting, and the copper and iron weapons made were all captured by the Xuanyuan army. Since then, Xuanyuan's army also has copper and iron weapons, ending the era of stone knives and stone axes. [37]
