For example, in Rouran, some scholars believe that the Avars in Byzantine history were the Rouran people who migrated westward after being destroyed by the Turks. The remaining Rouran people who stayed in Mobei gradually merged with the Turks and Khitans.
among tribes.
Another example: During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, due to war capture, there were hundreds of thousands of Rouran people scattered in the Central Plains, such as those who voluntarily joined or married their relatives as dowries. In order to strengthen the northern border defense, the Northern Wei Dynasty successively moved the Rouran people who were attached and captured, as well as the Han people in the hinterland.
The six towns and Pingcheng and other places coexisted with the Tuoba Xianbei soldiers and civilians, and used them as slave households and camps for the servitude. In order to prevent escape, some of them were also moved into the interior. These Rouran people who migrated to various places,
The Chile people and the Han people will integrate with the local people. The Rouran people who moved to the interior will mostly integrate into Xianbei first and eventually assimilate into the Han people in the Central Plains through various ways such as living together and intermarrying with each other.
It is easier said than done to eliminate a nation. You can talk about how the regime established by the Turks was eliminated, and how the regime established by the Khitan was eliminated, but absolutely, absolutely, absolutely cannot scream about how the Xiongnu, Turks and other ethnic groups were eliminated.
Not only will you not appear knowledgeable, but you will be laughed at for your ignorance!
Maybe some people think that the bear is too much. Is it worth talking about for a long time? Sorry, history is a rigorous matter. It is said that Li Bing's son founded the Tang Dynasty, which son? Not just that son
Well! Which one is it? For those who know it, they know it is Li Yuan. However, according to historical records, Li Bing had four sons, and Li Yuan had three older brothers. If someone records history, they only say that Li Bing’s son founded the
After the Tang Dynasty, can we, future generations, know which son he was?
Although history is not mathematics, it needs rigor just like mathematics.
Like the Xiongnu and Xianbei, the Turks are not a single nation, but a collective name for ethnic groups active in the Mongolian Plateau and Central Asia. In 540, the word "Turk" began to appear in Chinese history, and the Turks entered the historiography
Home’s vision.
Now let’s talk about the Chile tribe mentioned earlier.
The Chile people first lived near Lake Baikal. The Huns called them Dingling. The Xianbei people called them Gaoche because they used carts with tall wheels. Therefore, they also have many nicknames: Chile, Gaoche, Dili, Tiele, etc.
Ding Ling (or Ding Ling) and Uighur are all nicknames of the Chile tribe.
After the Han Dynasty defeated the northern Xiongnu, the Chilean region began to move southward and interacted with the Han people in the Central Plains. From the end of the 4th century AD to the middle of the 6th century, following the Xiongnu and Xianbei, the Chilean and Rouran people moved across the vast north, south and northwest of China's deserts.
Area. During the Northern Qi Dynasty, he lived in Shuozhou (now northern Shanxi Province).
The Chile people are also the main ethnic origin of the Uyghurs today. They are truly Chinese!
Speaking of Uighurs, let me tell you something about Uighurs.
Uighur was renamed from Uighur. Uighur is a branch of the tribes of Chile. This sentence is very important. Although there is Uighur in the nickname of Chile, Uighur is only a branch of Chile. Chile includes Uighur, and Uighur is not
Including Chile, however, Uighurs are also the main ethnic origin of the Uyghurs.
Speaking of the Chile people, there is a familiar folk song - the Chile song, which is selected from the "Yuefu Poetry Collection". It is a folk song spread in the Northern Dynasties north of the Yellow River during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. It is generally believed to be translated from Xianbei into Chinese. Folk songs
It sings of the magnificent and fertile scenery of the northern grasslands and expresses the Chile people's passion for their hometown and life.
Speaking of "Chile Song" alone, I'm afraid many people don't know it, but when it comes to "the wind blows the grass and the cows and sheep are low", there are not many people who don't know. Yes, this sentence comes from "Chile Song"
, the full song content is:
Chilechuan, at the foot of Yinshan Mountain. The sky is like a dome of a hut, covering the surrounding fields. The sky is blue, the fields are vast, and the grass is blown by the wind, and cattle and sheep can be seen low.
Just reading the text, you can feel the heroic feeling of riding a horse and galloping on the grassland!
Yeah, the bear's thinking is about to diverge again, the bucket is pulsating, let's continue.
From the fact that the Chile tribe was not annexed by Rouran, it can be seen that the Chile cannot be underestimated. However, the successive emergence of Rouran and the Turks did not give the Chile a chance to develop and grow.
In 550, the Turkic leader Ashina Tumen led his tribe to defeat and merge more than 50,000 tribes in Chile, and began to develop and grow, and received the attention of the Western Wei Dynasty.
After the Turks grew stronger, they set their sights on Rouran. In 552, the Turks defeated Rouran. Ashina Tumen called Ili Khan and established the vast Turkic Khanate. Its power quickly expanded to the entire Mongolian Plateau.
After the establishment of the Turkic Khanate, the relatively small number of Turks merged with a large number of Tiele people, and the physical characteristics of the Turks also changed from Caucasian to yellow and white hybrids.
By 550, the Turks were already a force that could not be underestimated. At this time, the Northern Wei Dynasty had split into the Eastern and Western Wei Dynasties. Both were intimidated by the powerful military strength of the Turkic Khanate and adopted the policy of paying tribute to the Turks and making peace in exchange for the support of the Turkic Empire.
, or neutral.
The Turks also took this opportunity to either form an alliance with the Northern Zhou Dynasty to jointly suppress the relatively powerful Northern Qi Dynasty, or to stay in a neutral position to obtain a large amount of economic benefits.
Around 560, the Turks conquered Tuyuhun, fought in the Western Regions, and even joined forces with Persia to destroy the White Huns. Today, Xinjiang and the Central Asian Transoxiana region became the territory of the Turkic Khanate. During the period when the Turks were strong, their territory extended to the Greater Khingan Mountains and the Liao River Basin in the east, and to the Aral Sea and Central Asia in the west.
Hezhong area.
Such a powerful existence made Yu Wenhu not want to violate the agreement he made with the Turks, so he reluctantly sent troops to the east.
Yu Wenhu didn't have much military talent at first, but he was forced to send troops again. In addition, the Zhou generals underestimated the enemy. Not only was he defeated by Qi in this eastern expedition, but two powerful generals, Wang Xiong and Yang Lali, were killed in battle.
Although Yu Wenyong did not blame Yu Wenhu, Yuwen Hu's personal prestige was greatly reduced because of the futility of this battle.
Some of Yu Wenyong's cronies advised Yu Wenyong to take advantage of this opportunity to quickly suppress Yuwen Hu. However, Yu Wenyong thought that this was not the best time. Yu Wenhu also knew that his prestige had been reduced, so he was wary of Yu Wenyong. Moreover,
Some people who had followed Yuwentai in the north and south were still more supportive of Yuwenhu.
Yu Wenyong shook his head:
"No, now is not the best time. We only have one chance to attack, so we must not act too hastily."
Let’s put aside the Great Zhou/Northern Zhou for now, and let Yu Wenyong and Yu Wenhu go to the side to have a fight and talk about the Kun Yu Kingdom.
Before I talk about it, I need to mention another nomadic tribe - the Dangxiang tribe.
The Dangxiang people are a branch of the Western Qiang people, so they are also called "Dangxiang Qiang".
According to records, the Qiang people originated from "Cizhi" or "Xizhi", which is the Yellow River area in the southeastern part of Qinghai Province today.
