The famous Zhiqing dwarf said that the Qiang people are actually the Jiang clan, because the Yan Emperor's surname is Jiang, so the Qiang clan is actually the Jiang clan, and they are more orthodox Than the Han people.
I am afraid that this is not right, the Qiang people used to call themselves "Erma people", which is an ancient ethnic minority in the ancient northwest, and the Qiang is a general term for the ethnic minorities in the west who "live by water and grass" in the central plains. In the "Commentaries on the Interpretation of the Text, the Sheep Department" is recorded: "Qiang, Xi Rong shepherd also, from the man from the sheep, the sheep also sound."

Dwarf da is afraid of the origin of the Qiang people known from Baidu Encyclopedia, but combined with the fact that he translated Zhuge Cheng Xiang's "Jia Battle Hundred People" into a hundred swords and axe hands before, his historical level also made everyone feel relieved.
The so-called Yanhuang descendants are after the defeat of the Yan Emperor, some tribal members surrendered to the Yellow Emperor, and after the fusion, some yanhuang descendants, funny Song is funny.
