Chapter 13: The Battle of Yanhuang Hanquan

readx;? Soon after Gongsun Xuanyuan succeeded to the throne, as a courtier, he met Emperor Yan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Tongyu, the daughter of Emperor Yan, likes the young and handsome Gongsun Xuanyuan. Emperor Yan, under the instigation of the minister, took this opportunity to annex the Youxiong clan and sent troops to capture the Yellow Emperor. The news was known by the Tongyu clan and informed Gongsun Xuanyuan in time. Gongsun Xuanyuan fled from Zhuolu. The alliance then broke down, and a full-scale war broke out between the two clans. Chi You, the leader of the Jiuli side, took the general Kuafu as an enemy of the alliance to take the opportunity to enter Hebei in the name of helping Emperor Yan quell the rebellion, occupied Jizhou, and joined Emperor Yan's side to fight against Youxiong. At this time, Jizhou was just the name of a city, and later gradually evolved into a collective name for the whole of Shanxi and Hebei.

This is a war between two distant relatives and tribes of the same origin and common ancestor within the Huaxia Group. In the oral lineage, their ancestors are all daughter clans that split from the Fuxi clan that was a marriage group with the Youqiao clan (Youwa clan), and the Xiong clan, as a branch of the Fuxi clan, originated in Jishui (ancient lacquer water, originated in Dulin, north-west of present-day Linyou, Shaanxi, and entered Wei in Wugong). The Ji Clan, that is, the Ji clan, was later expelled by the Yan Emperor Shennong to the Liaohe River Valley north of the Great Wall, and changed the "Tian Yuan" (i.e. Huang Neng) totem of the Fu Xi clan to the "Yellow Bear" as the totem. At the same time, he believed in the dragon totem created by the Fuxi clan. The Yandi Shennong clan originated in Jiangshui (the upper reaches of Weishui in Shaanxi, and there is still the Qing Jiang River in Baoj today), and the Jiang clan is made of ginger water.

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.

Because the two tribes involved in the war had strong strength, the war lasted for ten years, and the scale of the war became larger and larger, and Xuanyuan failed to defeat Emperor Yan and had to retreat. For this reason, Xuanyuan worries about Zhongzhong, and hopes day and night that he can have a sage to assist him.

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. I secretly thought, the wind is the main thing, and the dirt is the soil that is dissolved and cleared, is there a person in the world with the surname of the wind and the name? The crossbow of a thousand jun is the hope that in order to be able to go far, drive tens of thousands of sheep, and it is the shepherd who is good, is there a person with the surname of power and the name of the shepherd? 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.

In 2707 BC, the Yellow Emperor took the queen of the wind as the phase and the force as the general, and the Yellow Emperor led the six armies of "bear, wolf, wolf, leopard, carp and tiger" in the field of Hanquan (Yanqing County, Beijing) and the Yan Emperor to open a battlefield, which is known as the "Battle of Hanquan" in history. It has gone through three phases of the campaign.

The Yellow Emperor used the Zhou Bird and Eagle Trembling as the banner, and the bear, the tiger and the leopard as the forerunner, lined up the formation.

At the beginning stage, Emperor Yan in the Yellow Emperor did not take precautions, preemptively, besieged with fire, so that the outside of the military camp often thick smoke billowing, covering the sky and the sun, Ying Long (this is the tradition of the dragon discipline official pioneered by Fu Xi, Ying Long as the official position, on behalf of the official position of Ying Long's minister, similar to the later generations of the Ministry of War) extinguished the flame with water, the Yellow Emperor drove the Yan Emperor back to the valley of Hanquan, and asked his soldiers to only fight wits and courage with the Yan Emperor, without hurting his life. In the Hanquan River Valley, seven large flags were erected, and the Seven Banners of Star Dou were opened.

After Emperor Yan lost the fire battle, in the face of the Star Dou Seven Banners tactics, there was nothing to do, and he was defeated, and he hid back in the camp and did not dare to provoke. The Yellow Emperor admired the medicine and farming techniques of the Yandi tribe (Central Plains Dynasty) and was determined to join hands with them to create a civilized state. He set up a formation outside the Yandi camp to train his troops, and the ever-changing formations emerged one after another, and the Star Dou Seven Banner Array dazzled the soldiers of the Yan Emperor, and in the C training for more than three years, the combat effectiveness of each department gradually increased, and the Yan Emperor 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 has been training troops with the Star Dou Seven Banners Tactics as a cover, while sending troops to dig day and night, digging DX to the rear of Emperor Yan'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. After Chi You and Kuafu escaped, they fled back to Jizhou.

In 2703 BC, Emperor Yan's rule was overthrown, Emperor Yan abdicated, and Emperor Yan's daughter Tongyu married Gongsun Xuanyuan and became the third concubine of the Yellow Emperor. The two communities began to merge.

The last leader of the Yan Emperor Shennong's Jiang Yu was demoted to Luo, ashamed to be sealed, and then moved to the tail of Xiaoxiang Tea Township (so he collapsed and buried at the end of Xiaoxiang Tea Township), and the local people still buried him with the emperor's courtesy, that is, the Yandi Mausoleum of Yanling in Hunan today.

During the reign of the 8 tribes in the Yandi era, the national capital migrated from time to time, including those in ancient Chendi, those in Yin, those in Qi, and those in Qufu. Therefore, later generations found that there are tombs of Emperor Yan in many places.

Therefore, there is the tomb of Emperor Yan in Suizhou, Hubei, which is the mausoleum of Jiang Shinian of the first generation of Emperor Yan Lieshan (Shennong's). There is the Mausoleum of Emperor Yan in Gaoping, Shanxi, there is the Mausoleum of Emperor Yan in Shangqiu, Henan, and there is the Mausoleum of Emperor Yan in Baoj, Shaanxi, which should be the mausoleum of three emperors of the other six Emperor Yan Shennong.

After Chi You and Kuafu escaped, they fled back to Jizhou. Twenty-one of their 81 petty leaders were captured, and two of them, one named Manjiao and the other named Lishi, tried to escape, but were unsuccessful and were 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 mobilized his brothers, and gathered the Miao people in the south, as well as ghosts and ghosts (representing all barbarian tribes) between the mountains, forests, and rivers, and led a large army to challenge the Yellow Emperor under the banner of avenging 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 proselytized.
