The original text of the Twelve Benji and the Five Emperors
The Yellow Emperor, the son of Shaodian, surnamed Gongsun (公孙), was known as Xuanyuan (轩辕). Born and divine, weak and able to speak, young and slender, long and sensitive, mature and intelligent.
At the time of Xuanyuan, the Shennong clan declined. The princes invaded each other and abused the people, while the Shennong clan was enlisted. Therefore, Xuanyuan was accustomed to using Gange, so as not to enjoy it, and the princes were salty and guests. And Xuan you is the most violent, Mo Nengfa. Emperor Yan wanted to invade the princes, and the princes returned to Xuanyuan. Xuanyuan is a Shude Zhenbing, Zhi Wu Qi, Five Kinds of Qi, Fu Wanmin, Du Sifang, teaching Xiong Qi Qi and Qi Hu to fight against Emperor Yan in the wilderness of Hanquan. Three battles, and then its ambition. The worms are in turmoil and do not need the emperor's orders. Therefore, the Yellow Emperor was a prince of the Zhengshi Division, and fought with Xuan You in the wilderness of Zhuolu, so he killed Xuan You. And the princes Xianzun Xuanyuan was the Son of Heaven, and the Daishen Nong clan was for the Yellow Emperor. There are those who are not in the world, the Yellow Emperor will march on them, the peace will go, the passage of the mountain, and they will not try to live in peace.
To the east, there is hai, mount Dengmaru, and Daizong. As for the west, as for the empty tree, climb the chicken head. As for the south, as for the river, Dengxiong and Xiang. The northern porridge is in line with Busan, and the Yi is in Zhuolu'a. Migration is in a precarious place, with divisions and soldiers as the battalion guards. The official names are all named after Yun Ming, who is the Cloud Master. Leave the left and right of the great prison, and imprison the nations. All nations are at peace, and the ghost gods and mountains and rivers are sealed with Zen and are many yan. Won the Baoding, welcome the sun to promote the strategy. After lifting the wind, Li Mu, Chang Xian, and Dahong to govern the people. The age of heaven and earth, the possession of the shadows, the theory of death and life, and the difficulty of survival. Sowing hundreds of grains of grass and trees, Chunhua birds, beasts, insects and moths, Pangluo Sun, Moon, Stars, Water Waves, Earth, Stone, Gold and Jade, Hard Work, Eyes and Ears, Saving Water and Fire Materials. There is the Rui of Tude, hence the name Yellow Emperor.
Interpretation of fighting horses: A vassal state in present-day Yuzhou, Henan, is called the Bear Kingdom (that is, a tribe). The monarch Shaodian had a son, surnamed Gongsun (公孙), whose name was Xuanyuan. This little Xuanyuan has been full of aura since birth, and the end is magical. Other people's children can speak at the age of one, Xiao Xuanyuan was born, smart and agile at an early age, thick and agile when he grows up, intelligent and discerning after adulthood, distinguishing between right and wrong, I don't think that is an ordinary person.
After Xuanyuan came to power as an adult, the descendants of the original ruler Shennong clan gradually declined, and the princes did not have the power to restrain each other and violently abused the people, and the people after the Shennong clan did not have the strength to recruit them and maintain world peace.
So Xuanyuan decided to become a king in the chaotic world, practiced military training, expanded his armaments to make himself full of bear country force, and went to recruit those princes who did not come to pay tribute, and most of the other princes did not come to Xuanyuan's opponents to obey, Xuanyuan relied on carrots and sticks to expand his circle of friends infinitely, and finally he was able to command most of the princes of the world. And Xuanyu had always been the most fierce among the princes, and no one could go to him, and he did not respect Xuanyuan as king.
There was also a powerful prince named Emperor Yan, who also wanted to attack and oppress the small princes nearby to expand their power. Many of the minor princes came to Xuanyuan when they saw that the limelight was not right, and since then Emperor Yan and Xuanyuan have not looked at each other. In the following days, Xuanyuan practiced virtue, straightened out the army, studied the changes in the four seasons, planted grain, pacified the people, measured the land of the four directions, trained bears, cats, cats, cats, tigers and other fierce beasts, fought with Emperor Yan in the countryside of Hanquan, fought several battles successively, conquered Emperor Yan, won as desired, and signed a peace treaty between the two sides, and from then on the Yandi tribe was sent by Xuanyuan.
Everyone knows the story of the little brute explosion - Xuan You launched a rebellion and did not obey the orders of the Yellow Emperor. So the Yellow Emperor recruited the armies of various princes to fight Xuan you in the countryside of Zhuolu, and finally captured and killed him. In this way, the princes all honored Xuanyuan as the Son of Heaven, replacing the Shennong clan, which was the Yellow Emperor. If there is no submission in the world, the Yellow Emperor will go to conquest, pacify a place and then leave, along the way to split the mountains and open roads, meet the water to build bridges, busy and never live in peace where (also a model labor leader who only opens up and does not enjoy).
The Yellow Emperor led his troops east to the East China Sea, ascending Mount Maru and Mount Tai. To the west, I went to Khun Tong and climbed Jitou Mountain. To the south, we crossed the Yangtze River and climbed the Bear Mountain and the Xiang Mountain. Expelled the Porridge Tribe to the north, came to Busan to check the deeds with the princes, and built a capital at the foot of Mount Chalu. The Yellow Emperor moved around, had no fixed residence, and set up military camps for self-defense wherever he went. The official positions enfeoffed by the Yellow Emperor were all named after clouds, and the army was known as the Cloud Division. He set up the Left and Right Overseers (the earliest supervision and inspection departments), who oversaw the princely states. At this time, the nations were at peace. Therefore, since ancient times, the number of worshippers of ghosts and gods in the mountains and rivers has been the most (polytheistic belief, conquering a place requires sacrificing local gods to expand their influence and determine their connection with gods, worthy of the Yellow Emperor that everyone believes in).
The Yellow Emperor obtained the Baoding given by the heavens, so he observed the movement of the sun, used the yarrow used for divination to calculate the calendar, and predicted the solar terms (the great development of primitive science and technology at that time was also promoted by the Yellow Emperor of Xuanyuan). He appointed Fenghou, Limu, Changxian, Dahong, and others to govern the people. The Yellow Emperor conformed to the law of the four hours of heaven and earth, speculated about the changes in yin and yang, explained the truth of life and death, discussed the reasons for survival and death, sowed hundreds of grains of grass and trees according to the seasons, domesticated birds, beasts and silkworms (vigorously developed productive forces, and became the strongest country on the surface of the earth at that time), measured the sun, moon and stars to determine the calendar, collected earth, stone, gold and jade for civilian use, physical and mental eyes, suffered a lot of hard work, and used water, fire, wood and various property in moderation.
Xuanyuan did the auspicious sign of the attribute of the heavenly son, the earth color was yellow, so it was called the Yellow Emperor. (Fighting horses sorting, like to pay attention to Oh)
