Chapter 3 The Yellow Emperor vs. Chiyou

Dayu has just turned one year old. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info is clamoring to read. First, the child is too young, and secondly, there is no suitable teacher. So Kun decided to teach this Aiko himself.

Kun was originally a very learned person, erudite and talented, and he had been a big official in the court and had a lot of knowledge. Teaching a child who has just turned one year old is more than enough.

From this day on, Dayu is officially going to school. I wake up with the sun every day, wash my face, rinse my mouth, go to class, and read a book. Every day, the sound of reading can come out from Dayu's house: "Huibi Xiaoxing, three or five in the east, Su Su night march, night in the public." "The sky is yellow and the earth is yellow, the universe is desolate, the sun rises and the moon sets, and the stars are lined up. ”

Although Dayu is young, he has an innate wisdom root. Extremely perceptive, intelligent and abnormal. Take one back to three and never forget. Always ask why. I love to hear about the universe, nature, and the geography of mountains. I also love to listen to the stories of ancient sages such as Fuxi's gossip, Nuwa mending the sky, the Yellow Emperor's battle against Chiyou, Shennong's taste of herbs, and the Gonggongtou not touching Zhou Mountain.

One day, Dayu got up early and finished memorizing a book. came to Kun and begged his father to tell the story of the Yellow Emperor vs. Chiyou. On this day, Kun's interest was very high, and he readily agreed to Dayu's request. began to tell the story of the Yellow Emperor vs. Chiyou.

The Yellow Emperor is also called Youxiong's and Xuanyuan's. He was born a god, young and eloquent, young and intelligent, and when he grew up to be loving, generous, and wise. Able to drive away spirits.

At the beginning, the Yellow Emperor was a prince in a place called Youxiong. He is highly respected and highly respected by other princes around him.

At the same time as the Yellow Emperor, there was also a prince in the north called Chiyou. This Chi You is ambitious, not satisfied with just being a prince, he wants to replace the reigning Emperor Yan of Heaven at that time, and be an emperor of the whole world. So Chi You and his minions began to make trouble and drove away Emperor Yan. Occupying the imperial capital, he proclaimed himself emperor and caused chaos in the world.

There are eighty-one brothers in the Chiyou clan. They were all born with copper heads, iron foreheads, and stone necks. Each man had eight arms, eight toes, and hands like tiger claws. Half like a man, half like a beast, and his body is particularly strong. It can make soil for food, make food from sand, fly and dive, omnipotent, and extremely vicious.

Chiyou also excavated copper mines, smelted them into bronze, and used copper to make weapons. Bronze weapons, strong and sharp. At that time, the famous weapons were the "Yonghu Halberd" and the "Fox Father's Ge". They also invented the bow and crossbow, which was able to shoot enemies from a distance.

Relying on his strong body, advanced weapons, and ability, he had no fear, tyrannized the people, and wantonly invaded other vassal states. Chiyou has a self-proclaimed famous saying, called "When the halberd is angry, the corpses are all over the field." ”

Emperor Yan and the princes of the Quartet were bullied by Chiyou and had no way out, so they all ran to join the Yellow Emperor and asked the Yellow Emperor to lead everyone to crusade against Chiyou. The Yellow Emperor responded to the heavens, and together with Emperor Yan, he led the princes of the Quartet to fight against Chiyou several times. However, the soldiers on the Yellow Emperor's side were all ordinary people, using spears made of bamboo poles, Ge made of wooden poles, and axes made of stones tied to wooden sticks. Where have you been able to fight half-human, half-beast, and use advanced bronze weapons. So nine battles and nine wins, losing one after another.

This time, the Yellow Emperor's side lost the battle again. Forced to retreat to the foot of Mount Tai. The Yellow Emperor was very indignant and sad. Yang Tian sighed: "Oh God, why do good people suffer defeat and wicked people go rampant?" ”

It was this sigh that reached heaven. Touched a god. This celestial god is the Queen Mother of the West who lives on the Kunlun Mountains in the west. The Queen Mother of the West decided to punish evil and promote good, and help the Yellow Emperor defeat Chiyou. So the Queen Mother of the West sent the Nine Heavens Xuannu to the Yellow Emperor's camp with Su Nu to help the Yellow Emperor defeat Chiyou.

This Nine Heavens Xuannu is proficient in the art of war, and is good at offensive and defensive strategies and the art of arranging troops. From Kunlun Mountain, he turned into a nine-colored phoenix. The plain girl also turned into a white phoenix. Driving auspicious clouds to the Yellow Emperor's camp at the foot of Mount Tai, the two fairies first circled three times above the Yellow Emperor's camp, the Yellow Emperor's soldiers saw it, and reported that the Yellow Emperor said that there were two phoenixes flying over the camp, so the Yellow Emperor and the soldiers all looked up to the sky to watch, thinking that it was auspicious.

When the two phoenixes flew in front of the Yellow Emperor, they fell. After falling to the ground, the Nine Heavens Xuannu turned into a stunning beauty again, wearing a nine-colored silk dress. The plain girl became her maid, dressed in a snow-white dress.

When the Yellow Emperor saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute. said: "I don't know who the two of you are, what do you have to teach you when you come to my camp today?" The Nine Heavens Xuannu said while returning the salute: "The two of us are the Queen Mother of Kunlun Shanxi and the Nine Heavens Xuannu and Su Nu are also, and they were sent by the Queen Mother of the West to come to your camp today to help you defeat Chiyou." When the Yellow Emperor heard that it was the two fairies sent by the Queen Mother of the West, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted again, saying: "Thank you to the Queen Mother of the West for hosting justice, eliminating violence and peace, and pitiing the common people in the world." Then he treated the Nine Heavens Xuannu and the Su Nu as a courtesy. Everything related to the battle with Chiyou is up to the two of them, planning and scheduling.

The Nine Heavens Xuannu and Sunu first asked the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor to go to the Kunwu Mountain to mine copper ore. After the copper ore was mined, they were taught how to smelt copper. After refining the bronze, he instructed them to cast bronze weapons such as knives, spears, swords, halberds, axes, axes, ge, spears, etc.

After the weapon is created. They also assisted the Yellow Emperor in the creation of the chariot. The chariot was equipped with a "compass" invented by the emperor after the emperor's reign. There is a rotating bronze figure standing on the guide car, and no matter which direction the chariot goes, the fingers of the bronze man on the guide car point south. Whether in the dark or in the fog, the soldiers will not get lost. The soldiers, standing on chariots, attacked the enemy's infantry with spears and immediately gained the upper hand on the battlefield.

Because of the invention of the chariot, people called the Yellow Emperor "Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor". Or "Xuanyuan".

With these "hardware", it was not enough to defeat Chiyou, and the Nine Heavens Xuannu and Sunu also helped the Yellow Emperor create several "software".

The first is to use the cowhide of kui (kui) cow to make a war drum.

The Nine Heavens Xuannu instructed the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor to go into the sea for 7,000 miles, and killed a Kui Niu on the Mountain of Flowing Waves. Peeled off the cowhide of the cow and used the cowhide to form a war drum.

This cow is a strange beast. It was like a cow, 100 feet long, 30 feet in circumference, pale blue, and its eyes emitted the light of the sun and the moon. A huge beast, but with only one leg. Its cry is like thunder, and it can be heard for hundreds of miles. When it comes out of the water, there will be strong winds, thunder and lightning, and torrential rains. The skin of it was used to form a war drum, and the drum beat to the sky.

Peel off the skin of a cow and you can stretch the drums of war on 80 sides. After the war drums were ready, the Nine Heavens Xuannu instructed the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor to dig up the bones of the thunder god buried here after his death in a hill in Leize. Thor is not a real immortal, so it is also called a thunder beast. Use the stick and bone of the thunder beast as a drum hammer, and beat the 80-sided Kui Niu war drum, the war drum is knocking, the sound is like thunder, and it can be heard for 500 miles. Use the sound of drums to boost the military might of the enemy and intimidate the enemy.

With the war drums, the large buffalo horns were used to make a military horn, which was called a horn. A total of two hundred and forty trumpets were made. Two hundred and forty warriors were selected to blow the trumpet. The sound of the horn sounded, high-pitched and loud, like a tiger roaring like a dragon, which was thrilling. Boost the morale of the party and shock the enemy's heart.

At this time, the fifth son of the Yellow Emperor was called Waving, and he invented the bow and arrow. Bronze arrowheads are made of bronze and mounted on the tip of the shaft, and the bronze arrowheads are so sharp that they can even penetrate the enemy's armor. Compared to Chiyou's crossbow, the lethality has increased several times.

The Yellow Emperor was very happy to see that the bow and arrow were so powerful. It was given the surname Zhang. As a token of appreciation. Since then, there has been the surname Zhang.

Everything is ready to go. The Yellow Emperor commanded an army of 100,000 princes, and the Nine Heavens Xuannu served as a staff officer. The formation besieged Chiyou's army and launched the final decisive battle with Chiyou.

The soldiers of the Yellow Emperor were majestic and high-spirited. Riding a chariot drawn by four horses, he rushed to the enemy line like a sea of mountains. Eighty war drums of Kui Niu beat at the same time, and the sound was heard for 500 miles, which broke the hearts of the enemy. Two hundred and forty trumpets sounded at the same time, and the sound shook the sky. Inspire and boost the morale of the fighters. The archers stand on chariots, their bows stretched like the full moon, and their arrows shoot like locusts at the enemy. Changge and halberd stabbed at the enemy. Enemy soldiers were killed, shot, frightened to death, trampled to death.

In this battle, the corpses of the soldiers were strewn all over the field, and the blood flowed like rivers. Of the eighty-one brothers of the Chiyou clan, fifty were killed. Thirty-one remained, and fled back to the old nest in the north with the remnants of the defeated army.

The Yellow Emperor led the army of princes in hot pursuit. and called on the princes of the Quartet to meet Zhuolu. Prepare to annihilate the Chiyou brothers.

Chiyou still has to make a final dying resistance. He dug the embankment of the river and flooded the armies of the Yellow Emperor and the princes. The Yellow Emperor summoned Ying Long with a spell taught by the Queen Mother of the West. Ying Long drained the water on the ground.

Chiyou spread a heavy fog again, and the haze filled the battlefield, and the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor could not distinguish between the east and the west, the north and the south, and lost their way. At this time, the guide car was pushed out after the wind to guide his army, while Chiyou's own soldiers were ramming everywhere in the haze, and they could only be beaten.

Chi You sees that a plan can't be made and there is a plan for life. The demon method was made, and the wind blew and rained down, and the soldiers of the Yellow Emperor were soaked in the torrential rain, unable to open their eyes, and wet the war drums, which could not be beaten, and the wind blew so that the soldiers could not stand and could not charge. The trumpeters were out of breath and could not blow their horns. So the Yellow Emperor summoned the drought in the sky again. The drought restrained the storm, the sun lit up the earth again, the drummers of the Yellow Emperor beat the drums of war again, the trumpeters blew the horns again, and the soldiers launched a charge again.

Eventually, the armies of the princes of the Quartet gradually joined in. Thirty more Chiyou brothers were killed. In the end, only Chi You was left to escape alone. The Yellow Emperor sent Ying Long to capture the escaped Chiyou from the wilderness.

The Yellow Emperor convened a trial meeting attended by all the princes in the world, sentenced Chiyou to death, beheaded the righteous law, and buried him in Juye, Shandong. The flail that Chi You wore when he was dying turned into a red maple forest. So far, the eighty-one Chiyou brothers have all been subdued, and all the Chiyou soldiers have been exterminated.

The Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou in one fell swoop in this battle, and the princes of the four corners of the world jointly elected the Yellow Emperor as the leader of the whole of China, and was honored as the Yellow Emperor. The people of later generations respected Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang as the ancestors of the Chinese nation. To this day, we are proud to say that we are the descendants of Yan and Huang.

Father told the story of the Yellow Emperor's battle against Chiyou, and Dayu blinked his bright eyes and listened attentively. Don't pull a word, into the ears and into the heart. Since then, the story of the Yellow Emperor vs. Chiyou and the complex of the descendants of Yan and Huang have been deeply buried in Dayu's young heart.
