China is a country with a history of five thousand years of civilization, and the beginning of this civilization is the Yellow Emperor.
"History of the Five Emperors": "The Yellow Emperor collapsed, buried Bridge Mountain." This is the earliest document to record the Yellow Emperor, and the Book of Shang, which is earlier than the "Records of History", does not record the Yellow Emperor, but begins with Emperor Yao, because the "Book of Shang" is a Confucian classic and has been lost, and the realization of the history recorded in the "Book of Shang" is considered to be low in the credibility of historians. There is also a book of "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic", including two parts, "Lingshu" and "Su Qing", each volume of 81 articles, a total of more than 800,000 words, is a book to discuss medical techniques by the Yellow Emperor, since it is a name, it means that there is a Yellow Emperor.
Because there is no historical record of the Yellow Emperor's period, the events of the Yellow Emperor's life can only be considered according to legends.
Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor, whose original surname was Gongsun and later changed his surname to Ji and xuanyuan, was the leader of the ancient Huaxia tribal alliance, the co-lord of the Chinese nation in ancient times, and the head of the Five Emperors. He lived from about 2717 BC to 2599 BC, and it is said that he had the Rui of Tude, so he was called the Yellow Emperor. During the reign of the Yellow Emperor, he sowed hundreds of grains of grass and trees, vigorously developed production, and began to make clothes and crowns, build boats and cars, make music rhythms, and create medicine.
We know that the development of agricultural civilization can never be suddenly developed from zero within a generation, it must have been founded after a long period of exploration, and in addition, cars and boats, music and medicine are all produced by the summary of people's long life experience in production and life. Therefore, Confucian classics such as the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classics and the Analects are all famous books, the results of many people and years, and are by no means written by the Yellow Emperor and Confucius himself.
The "History of the Five Emperors" says: "Born a god, weak and able to speak, young and slender, long and sensitive, mature and wise." 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 that he could not enjoy it, and the princes were obedient. And Xuan you is the most violent, Mo Nengfa. Emperor Yan wanted to invade the princes, and the princes returned to Xuanyuan. Xuanyuan is the Shude Zhenbing, Zhi Wu Qi, Qi Five Kinds, Fu Wanmin, Du Sifang, teaching xiong qi qi to fight against the Yan Emperor in the wilderness of Hanquan. Three battles, and then its ambition. The Greatest contribution of the Yellow Emperor to Chinese civilization was to end the state of tribal chaos in his era, to create a unified political system and a peaceful environment for the ancestors living on the land of China, and also to the beginning of the concept of Chinese civilization opposing war and seeking peace.
Through the history books, we can have some basic understanding of the yellow emperor's life era. The Yellow Emperor lived in an era when there were a large number of tribes in ancient times, and before him, there was a tribe of Shennong that was the most powerful, and each tribe was respected by the Shennong tribe. During the Yellow Emperor period, the power of the Shennong tribe declined, and the tribe peacefully ended the period of re-entry into mutual war. The tribe where the Yellow Emperor is located is called the Youxiong Tribe, and after the Yellow Emperor became the leader of the Xiong tribe, he vigorously developed his production strength and continued to grow, laying a foundation for his strength to unify the tribes. After continuous conquest, the Yellow Emperor had a bear department annexing the surrounding small tribes, becoming one of the three major tribes coexisting with the Yan Emperor and the Xuan Youbu.
After three major wars, the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor won the victory of the Yellow Emperor, and the two tribes formed a tribal alliance, that is, the Yanhuang Alliance, which is the origin of our so-called descendants of Yanhuang. After the Yanhuang Tribal Alliance became the largest tribal force, it and the Xuanyu tribe completely defeated the Xuanyu tribe in the Zhuolu War to complete the tribal unification. Since then, Chinese civilization has emerged, and the Yellow Emperor has thus contributed to becoming the humanistic ancestor of Chinese civilization.
