Historical background

Today, at the earliest battlefield recorded in Chinese history - near Zhuolu, Hebei Province, the Yellow Emperor and Chi You fought a decisive battle, which ended in Chi You's defeat, establishing the Xuanyuan clan of the Yellow Emperor. The ultimate status as the ancestor of Chinese humanities.

This was the decisive battle between the Huaxia clan and the Dongyi clan 4600 years ago. This war was the best between the two clans and was the earliest and most famous decisive battle in Chinese history. After this war, the winner of the war, the Yellow Emperor, became the common ancestor of the Chinese nation and was gradually deified.

The Chinese clans at that time emerged in the Guanzhong Plain, southern Shanxi, and western Henan. After integration, it develops along the north bank of the Yellow River to the west of the North China Plain. The Dongyi people arose in the junction area of ??Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Jiangsu and Anhui in today's lower reaches of the Yellow River. Based on present-day Shandong, it developed from east to west and began to enter the North China Plain. In this way, the conflict between the Han family and the Dongyi people was inevitable. The Battle of Zhuolu was the decisive battle that broke out under this historical background.

The course of the war

The Chiyou tribe of Dongyi entered the North China Plain, formed an alliance with the giant Kuafu tribe and the Sanmiao tribe, defeated the Yandi clan, and then occupied the "Yandi clan" where the Yandi clan lived. Jiujiao" means "Jiuzhou". After that, he gathered 81 affiliated clans and launched an attack on the Huangdi clan. Huang Di led the clans with bears, wolves, leopards, vultures, dragons, owls, etc. as their totems to fight against the Chi You tribe, and built dams upstream to store water to stop Chi You.

In the early days of the war, it happened to be a time of fog and storms, which was very suitable for the Chiyou people who came from the rainy environment in the east. Therefore, in the first battle stage, the Huangdi clan, which is suitable for fighting on sunny days, is not in a favorable position and has already lost nine battles. However, it didn't take long for the rainy season to pass and the weather cleared up. With the support of Xuannv, the Huangdi tribe took advantage of the situation and launched a counterattack against the Chiyou tribe. Taking advantage of particularly favorable weather, the wind was blowing, the dust was blowing, the horns were blowing, and the drums were beating. Taking advantage of the chaos and shock of the Chiyou clan, he drove everyone to attack the Chiyou clan in the direction pointed by the south car. Finally, he defeated the enemy in one fell swoop, captured and killed his leader Chiyou alive in the wilderness of Jizhou. The Battle of Zhuolu ended with the Yellow Emperor's victory. After the war, the Yellow Emperor advanced eastward to Mount Tai, where he held a "Sealing Mount Tai" ceremony before returning in triumph. This is the story of Huang Yan and Chi You.

Surrounded by Zhuolu, Taihang and Yanshan mountains, the Sanggan River flows from east to west in this basin. In this ancient land, many historians devote themselves to studying the mountains and rivers in history. They search for the ancient traces of the Chinese ancestors from countless history books. From the early "Book of Yizhou" to the "Four Classics of the Yellow Emperor", from the "Historical Records" written by Ma Qian of the Taishi Company of the Western Han Dynasty, to the geographer Li Daoyuan of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the prefect Yang Guisen of the Qing Dynasty, to the "Shui Jing Zhu", historians have investigated Zhuolu is considered to be the Chinese nation.
