The Battle of Hansen in prehistory

author:Grassroots study of the history of war

There is no written record of the prehistoric era, and the events are quite controversial for posterity based on legends. The Battle of Hanquan is mostly considered to be the battle between Emperor Yan and the Yellow Emperor, but the Yan Emperor lived in Jiangshui [one is the Qingjiang River in the Weibin District of present-day Baoji City, and the other is the Qishui river in present-day Baoji City.] ], the Yellow Emperor Juji Shui [now verified as Xinzheng City, Henan Province, The Water of The Water - originated in the north of Fenghouling in the West Dakui Mountains of Xindian Town, Xinzheng City, flowed southeast through Changge City, Xuchang City, Linying County and Yanling County, and flowed into the Ying River 2 km south of Yanling County at the Zhaozhuang Gate.

], the two tribes are far apart, there is no conflict of interest, especially in the clan period with blood relations as the cohesion, the probability of war between the Yanhuang tribe is extremely low, so I think the battle of Hanquan is the battle between Yandi Yuyi and Xuanyou.

About 4,600 years ago, the Yandi Shennong clan was active in the area of the Xia clan, as the co-lord of the Xia clan; the Shaohao clan was active in the area of the Yi clan, as the co-lord of the Yi clan; and the Xuan You clan was active in the area of the Li Miao clan, as the co-lord of the Li Miao clan. Both the Xia and Li groups were located in the central part of present-day Henan Province, with the Xia people from north to south and the Li people from south to north, competing with each other for the Central Plains as suitable for nomadic hunting [The loess layer of the Henan Plain is more geologically loose and the pasture is vigorous. ], over time, the Li Miao clique's Xuan You [ Legend has it that there are seven regimes of the Nine Li Clan You Clan: Jiang Yu, Jiang Roar, Xuan You, Jiang Peck, Hui, Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng, and Jiang Feng. Legend has it that the Yan Emperor regime had eight terms: YanDi Shennong, Linkui, Dicheng, Diming, Dizhi, Dilai (厘), Emperor Wrapping (哀), and Yuyi(噠罔). Thus it became a large-scale war between the two ethnic groups. The Xia Yan Emperor Shennong clan to the Yan Emperor Yu Yi has been eight generations, the Xia clan at this time accompanied by disputes, Yu Yi leadership is also flawed; on the contrary, Xuan You can lead eighty-one brother clans to fight together, work together, the two clans in the land of Hanquan decisive battle, Xuan You from the south to the north, Yu Yi Jie defeated and retreated to Han Quan, Xuan You won, and then ruled the Xia territory and became the Yan Emperor [Yi Zhou Shu Shi Shi Xie" said: "Xuan You chased Emperor Yu Yi and stood on his own, called Yan Emperor. Also known as the Han Izumi clan. ”]。 As a result, the Xia hero Yellow Emperor rebelled against the invasion of the Li clan Xuan You, which was later the Yellow Emperor Xuan You chased deer (present-day Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province). Prelude to the Battle.

The location of Hanquan is quite controversial, but Emperor Yan "fixed the capital at Chen" (present-day Huaiyang County, Henan Province), the Jiuli tribe lived in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, the leader Xuan you had a cruel personality, Emperor Yan and Xuan You's many major battles, Emperor Yan was in a state of gradual defeat and retreat, from Chen Di to Hanquan (present-day Fugou County, Henan Province), Fugou belonged to the Eastern Henan Plain, the terrain was flat and empty, suitable for the two armies to fight, so Fugou was most likely the site of the Battle of Hanquan. The Yandi capital Chen (Huaiyang) and Hanquan (Fugou) are more than 80 kilometers apart.
