readx;? Xia Wei's imprisonment of Tang caused even greater panic among the princes and Fang Guo, and they all defected to Shang, willing to help Tang destroy Xia, and on the same day, five hundred princes went to Tang to form an alliance. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

After Tang returned to Shang, the painful experience of being imprisoned made Shang Tang even more determined to destroy Xia. After consulting with the minister, it was decided to temporarily keep the light in obscurity, so as not to arouse the vigilance of the emperor.

In 1743, after three years of recuperation, Shang sent troops to extinguish the temperature.

In 1741 BC, Xia Bo of Kunwu led his army to attack Shang on the strength of his ability. Yi Yin saw that Kunwu was desperately loyal to Xia Wei and was bent on being an enemy of Shang, so he asked Tang to lead an army to meet Kunwu. In the first battle, the Kunwu army was defeated, and the Kunwu army retreated.

Subsequently, Shang and the princes met in Bo and jointly conquered the Wei State. The merchant then captured the kingdom of Fenwei. After that, we will conquer the country.

Taishi Ling Zhonggu gave the evil omen of divination, crying and giving it to Ji, who disdained it. Zhonggu defected to the Shang state, causing great repercussions among the princes and expanding the influence of Shang.

In 1740, the Shang and the princes allied forces captured the state of Gu.

In order to show his determination to conquer Xia, not to occupy territory, but also to show goodwill to the Great Peng State that had taken refuge in him, Tang agreed that the children surnamed Peng would continue to be in charge of the Fenwei Kingdom, so the Fenwei Kingdom also became a member of the princes who crusaded against the Xia Dynasty.

At this time, there was another great drought in the world. Tang took Yi Yin's suggestion and stopped paying tribute to the Xia Dynasty in order to test Xia Wei's strength.

When the news reached the Xia capital, he summoned the Jiuyi army to attack Shang, and Shang Tang saw that he could still mobilize the forces of the Jiuyi clan, knowing that Xia's power was still very strong. Shang Tang knew that the time was not right, so he immediately pleaded guilty to Ji, humbly bowed his submission, resumed the tribute, removed the mustard in Ji's heart, and won the time to wait for the opportunity.

Fei Bochang defected to Shangguo.

In the winter and October, the people were mobilized to dig mountains and build water conservancy to alleviate the drought.

In 1739, during the construction of water conservancy, Qushan Mountain collapsed, which was considered a bad omen in ancient times. The virtuous minister Guan Long wanted to enter the army to cultivate more virtue and politics in the morning, and this landslide Guan Longfeng seemed to be a warning from God, so he wrote many times. Ji was very angry because of this, and put Guan Longfeng to death.

Shang Tang told the princes about this matter, and the leaders of Jiuyi also saw that Xia Wei would not last long, so they did not listen to the dispatch and rebelled one after another, greatly weakening the power of Ji Ji.

Shang Tang decided to take advantage of this favorable opportunity to send troops to Kunwu. The Kunwu people, the hardcore supporters of the Shang and the princes' alliance to conquer Xia, made the Ji see that the situation was not good, and sent the main force to join forces with the Kunwu tribe to fight.

In 1738, before the Xia Dynasty army supported the Xia Dynasty, the combined forces of Shang and the princes attacked Kunwu, destroyed Kunwu, killed Xia Bo, the lord of Kunwu, and entered the land and people of Kunwu.

Subsequently, Shang Tang swore an oath in Bo (Shangqiu, Henan) and announced Xia Wei's crime. Shang Tang officially launched an army to fight Xia. Tang Hezhongyu and Yi Yin led an army of seventy chariots and 5,000 foot soldiers to the west to attack Xia Ji. Xia Wei mobilized the army of the Xia Dynasty and drove out the royal capital of Shenxun (Henan Yanshi). The two armies of Xia and Shang met at the field of Narujo (now Fengqiudong, Xinxiang, Henan) and launched a general battle.

Before the battle began, in order to boost morale, Tang summoned the Shang army who participated in the battle and the princes and the troops of the Fang State who came to help Shang and Xia, and read an oath of the war, that is, the "Tang Oath". After the mobilization of the Shang army, their morale was greatly boosted, and they all expressed their willingness to fight to the death with the Xia army. The morale of the Xia army was low and people were resentful. On the day when the two armies fought, it was just in time for the weather of heavy thunderstorms, and the Shang army did not avoid the thunderstorms and fought bravely, and the Xia army was defeated and retreated.

Seeing that the defeat was out of control, Xia Yi did not even dare to return to the capital, so he led 500 remnants of the army to flee east to Sanshu (Dingtao, Shandong), and Xiayi was captured by the coalition forces. Seeing that Xia Ji's troops were defeated and fled, Sanshu Bo immediately deployed troops to protect Xia Wei, and threatened to fight to the death with Tang. Tang and Yi Yin saw Xia Wei defecting to Sanyu, that is, they waved their troops eastward. The Shang army and the Sanshu army fought at Yu (left to right) (present-day Wenshangbei, Shandong), and as a result, the Shang army defeated the Sanshu army, killed Sanshuo, and seized Sanshubo's treasure and property.

Xia Wei saw that Sanyu was destroyed by Tang again, so he still fled south with the five hundred remnants. Tang and Yi Yin led the army urgently, and Xia Wei fled to Nanchao (now southeast of Shou County, Anhui) and defected to the Nanchao clan, which was an allied tribe of Xia and a descendant of the ancient Youchao clan. Later, Nanchao gradually became the common name of the nest-dwelling people in the land of Jingchu.

The merchant army chased to Nanchao, and Xia Wei wanted to escape from Nanchao again, but he was caught by the merchant army as soon as he walked to the city gate. The soup placed Xia Jiliu in the Pavilion Mountain of the South Nest.

In order to completely wipe out the remnants of the Xia Dynasty, Tang and Yi Yin led their armies westward. Because some of the more powerful and loyal Fang states such as Wei, Gu, Kunwu and Sanshu were destroyed by Shang Tang, the Shang army did not encounter major resistance on the way west, and soon occupied the capital of the Xia Dynasty, Shen Xun (Henan Yanshi).

The noble ministers of the Xia Dynasty all expressed their willingness to submit to Tang. After Tang and Yi Yin pacified the subjects of the Xia Dynasty, they held a ceremony to worship the heavens in Zhuxun, indicating to the subjects of the Xia Dynasty that they were punishing the guilty Ji according to the will of the heavens, and that the "number of successions" of the Xia Hou clan (the number of successive emperors) had come to an end. This officially announced the end of the Xia Dynasty. From Yu to the seventeenth generation, there are kings and no kings, with the age of 471 years, the beginning of the son, the end of the people. The "Bamboo Book Chronicle" records 471 years, which is wrong, because the difference between the Renzi and Renxu years is 490, not 470, so the actual age should be 491 years. (BC2228-1738)

After the destruction of Xia, Shang Tang originally wanted to set the capital of the country in the summer capital. However, in order to appease the subjects of the Xia Dynasty and further consolidate the power it had obtained, the Xia Society was retained, and the important ministers of the Xia Dynasty were concentrated in the Xia capital to search for them, and they were strictly guarded to prevent the Xia people from rebelling. And near the summer capital re-established a new capital, also called "Bo", later known as Xi'an (Henan Yanshi). "Shangshu Tang Oath" said: "Tang is better than Xia, if you want to move its society, you can't, make "Xia Treatise". This means that Naruto Yumoto wanted to move the trading company to the Xia Society, but because of the problem of consolidating the rule and relocating the remnants of the Xia Dynasty, he retained the Xia Society and built a new capital.

Therefore, although Xia Du Xun and Shang Capital Xihao are both in the current Yanshi, they are not the same city.

After the Yellow Emperor and before the Qin Dynasty, the nomadic tribal alliance in the northern desert region was given different names in different periods, perhaps because the central tribe and customs had changed, so the titles were different.

As mentioned earlier, during the period of the Yellow Emperor, some of the descendants of Emperor Yan (descendants of Jiuli) after the defeat of Chiyou were expelled by the Yellow Emperor to the barren land in the north, and the name of the meat porridge [xunyu], also known as Shanrong, or Wuzhi, became the main body of civilization of Beidi or Beirong, and dominated the northern part of Shanxi and Shaanxi in northern China until the Hetao region of Inner Mongolia. Because the power of the Central Plains Dynasty had not yet developed there before the Xia Dynasty, it was basically at peace with the Central Plains Dynasty.
