Descendants of Yanhuang are the names of our Chinese. The Second Emperor of Yanhuang was the ancestor of China. Legend has it that they came from the same tribe and later became the leaders of two rival tribes. The two tribes fought the Battle of Hanquan, the Yellow Emperor defeated the Yan Emperor, and the two tribes gradually merged into the Huaxia, which was called the Han after the Han Dynasty.
The YanDi and the Yellow Emperor were also the ancestors of Chinese culture and technology, and legend has it that they, together with their courtiers and descendants, created almost all the important inventions of antiquity.
We know the allusion of Shennong tasting hundred herbs, which refers to The Yan Emperor here.
Emperor Yan was the honorific title of the leader of the Jiang tribe in ancient China, called Shennong. Legend has it that the leader of the tribe surnamed Jiang was called Emperor Yan because he knew how to use fire to get the throne.

He taught the people to use tools, the people to sow grain, the people to medicine, the people to make pottery and painting, the people to bow and arrow, animal hunting, fitness, the people to make the piano, the people to music, dance, and also taught the people wisdom. It can be seen that during the Yandi period, morality, intelligence, physique and beauty were comprehensively valued and developed.
After talking about the Yan Emperor, let's talk about the Co-Lord of the Chinese Nation, the Yellow Emperor.
The Yellow Emperor's great achievements in unifying the Chinese tribes and conquering the Dongyi and Jiuli tribes to unify China have entered the annals of history.
In the later period of the Yandi Shennong clan's rule, the various tribes in the Central Plains attacked each other, and the war continued unceasingly. The Yellow Emperor took advantage of the time to defeat the different tribes, and the leaders of the remaining tribes also returned to the tribe, thus forming a situation in which the Yan Emperor, the Yellow Emperor, and the Xuan you people stood on their feet.
Emperor Houyan was defeated by Xuan You and asked for help from the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor gathered on Zhuolu to fight against Xuan You, and the battle was very fierce. The Yellow Emperor, with the assistance of the general Fenghou and Li Mu, finally captured Xuan You, won a victory, and unified the tribes in the Central Plains. The Later Yellow Emperor carried out reforms in various fields.
