Chapter 5622 Peng Yiyuan is the Eastern Zhou Dynasty
Speaking of this, the ancestor frowned and said in a deep voice: "At this time, he realized that Huaiyi has become more and more powerful in the past hundred years, not only has it taken root in the original Huaiyi land, but even
The forces went further north and went deeper into Qingzhou. If the Shang Dynasty did not take action, I am afraid that the entire eastern Yi tribe would become a new enemy."
Black robe frowned: "In the direction of Huaiyi, what are the great enemies of the Shang Dynasty? In the western direction of the Western Qiang and even the Quanrong of Guifang tribe, Zhaofang of Bingzhou direction, Fangrong of Fang
We know that these Beidi tribes have always been a major threat to the Shang Dynasty, but in the east direction, we rarely hear you mention any country that is the strong enemy of the Shang Dynasty. They can fight for decades or hundreds of years.
”
The ancestor curled his lips and said, "In fact, from the perspective of the Central Plains, the Central Plains are located in the center of the world, and there are barbarians in all directions. In the west are the Western Qiang and Quanrong, mainly composed of Qiang people and Guifanghuadi people, and
The Western Qiang tribe was once again at the beginning of the founding of the Shang Dynasty, and took in a large number of Xia Dynasty residents, so it has been a key attack by the Shang Dynasty. However, it is far from the central area of the Shang Dynasty. It is not easy for the Shang army to come here, so it is for Shang Dynasty.
For the dynasty, in addition to the excuse of sheltering the remnants of the Xia Dynasty and launching wars against the Western Qiang and Quanrong tribes from time to time to capture people, they are not very interested in the expansion of the Kansai area."
"As for the directions of Bingzhou and Hebei, Hebei is the origin of the Shang Dynasty. The Shang tribe originated from the northeast and Yingzhou. It has been active in the Jizhou area of Hebei for many years. Later, it slowly moved south and entered the Central Plains and Huai area.
But their ancestral residence was still in the Donghu area of Liaoxi. When Wang Hai went north, he was also asked by an oracle to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors. Then something happened when he passed by Hebei, which also proved the origin and longing of the Shang clan.
The area for the New Year was in Hebei. At that time, there was no farming in Hebei. Thousands of miles were the grassland. Various nomadic tribes traveled between them. Xianghe Kingdom, there were Yi family, including various descendants from the south of the desert and the Donghu area.
The Hu tribes all live here to chase water and plants."
"Because there are big rivers separated, and these nomadic tribes are not very cruel and warlike, the Shang Dynasty has almost left the direction of Hebei for hundreds of years, but Bingzhou is different. Here, the mountains and rivers are everywhere, and Rongdi comes out from all directions.
You can enter the plains and nomadic, retreat, you can enter the mountains and build docks to defend yourself, which is very difficult. You will occasionally attack the cities in the southern Jin Dynasty. From the ancient Tang Dynasty to the Yu Dynasty, then to the Xia Dynasty, the capital is often located in Jin.
In the south, whether it is Taosi or Anyi, they have been attacked by nomadic aliens who went south in Jin. The Shang Dynasty established its capital in Henan and Central Plains, but the Yellow River is at the bend, at the junction of Qin, Jin and Central Plains.
Turning around, the water flows smoothly here and it is easy to cross the river. If you go south from Bingzhou, you can go straight to the Central Plains. This poses a great threat to the Shang Dynasty. Therefore, the Shang generation used troops mostly in Bingzhou, including the decisive battle with the Guifang.
He fought in Bingzhou."
"As for the east, it is the territory of the traditional Dongyi tribe. The Shang tribe itself also originated from Dongyi, but the Dongyi tribes are like the grassland tribes, and they are constantly attacking and killing, and there is no question of the same.
In the Qingzhou area, the earliest tribes such as the Han family were all the best friends of the Xia Dynasty. During the Shang Dynasty's destruction of Xia, they had no shortage of conflicts with the local tribes in Qingzhou. After the destruction of Xia, they were all the most important tribes in Qingzhou.
The various tribes in Qingzhou also nominally paid tribute to the Shang Dynasty, but in fact they maintained a high degree of independence. It was not easy for the Shang Dynasty to develop eastward and attack the various tribes in Qingzhou. It was fought for one or two hundred years, before the Nine-Year Rebellion,
It was just that several cities were built by the sea, used as salt fields and fishing grounds, and then some countries in Qingzhou were forced to regularly pay tribute to the specialties of Shang Dynasty fish, salt, and seashells."
"There is this in Qingzhou, let alone the Jianghuai land. During the Xia Dynasty, Pi and other countries were relatively powerful. However, during the Shang Dynasty, the Shang Dynasty was on both sides of the lower reaches of the Yellow River, in Hebei, or in the Hanoi region in the north of the Central Plains.
, expelled some tribes from the south, such as the powerful Kunwu clan during the Xia Dynasty, and the Peng clan and Wei clans of the same clan as the Kunwu clan, and moved them to the Jianghuai land as a barrier. What does Taoism say
Peng Zu lived for 800 years, which was actually a false opinion. The real 800 years was the Peng Kingdom. From the time they were granted the title of the Xia Dynasty to the time when they were defeated at the end of the Shang Dynasty, it was almost 800 years. Of course,
This Peng Kingdom refers to the Peng Kingdom in the Pengcheng area of Huaibei. Later, he went to Jingchu area. It was not considered the Peng Kingdom in the past eight hundred years."
The black robe suddenly became interested: "Pengcheng and Xuzhou, are all named after the once powerful Peng Kingdom in this place. In other words, Peng Kingdom had to be long before Xu Kingdom. Well, Xu Kingdom was in
During the Zhou Dynasty, the Peng Kingdom was in the Shang Dynasty, so it was indeed earlier.”
Dou Peng sneered: "Peng and Wei are the former overlords of the south. As the descendants of Wu Hui of Zhurong, he married Princess Guifang, and then became pregnant for three years. He cut off his caesarean section from the ribs and gave birth to six sons, the eldest son Kunwu,
Peng should be the fourth son, while Ji Lian, the ancestor of Chu, was the sixth son. Kunwu was a loyal tribe who helped Zhongkang and Houyi become enemies after Taikang lost his country during the Xia Dynasty. However, in the late Xia Dynasty, the Kunwu clan was a loyal tribe who helped Zhongkang become enemies.
, then offended Jie of Xia, and Jie of Xia sent Shang Tang to lead the army of Jiuyi to attack Kunwu. It was after defeating the Kunwu clan that Shang Tang took the opportunity to make a swearing to the princes who participated in the battle.
They were asked to attack the Xia Dynasty, and this was the battle of Mingtiao in Shang Tang on behalf of Xia. Unexpectedly, the tribes of the Kunwu family, Peng family, and Wei family, moved eastward to the Jianghuai area.
It became Huaiyi.”
The ancestor nodded: "That's it. In ancient times, tribes lived by water and grass. Over the past few decades, hundreds of miles may have run hundreds of miles or thousands of miles, especially after the flood, many tribes
The capital was left behind, and the Shang Dynasty could move all the way from the northeast to the Central Plains, and the descendants of Zhurong could also run from the south to the Central Plains, and then be driven to the Jianghuai area by the Shang Dynasty."
"When defeating the Pi State Rebellion, Peng State and Wei State descendants of Zhurong stood on the side of the Shang Dynasty and made contributions, and thus obtained the title and feudal title and became a great power in the East, and to the north of these two countries
At the junction of Qingzhou and Huaibei, the Shang Dynasty also enfeoffed a royal prince to come over and established the Yan Kingdom. This Yan Kingdom was considered to be the own people of the Shang Dynasty, and Peng Kingdom and Wei Kingdom, just like Zhou Kingdom, were both
It should be used to attack and annex other countries, and to monitor and be vigilant outsiders." (This chapter ends)
