Xia Dynasty
It’s more than 4,000 years ago from where we are today
Because it's too old
Coupled with the lack of historical data
It is also difficult to understand
Based on the inference of the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasty projects
The Xia Dynasty began in 2070 BC
Finally 1600 B.C.
Lasted about 470 years
However, in the Xia Dynasty ruins to this day,
But no strong evidence has been found yet
It can prove the birthplace of Xia Dynasty
No physical evidence has been found that it was larger than the capital city.
Even some evidence directly related to Wang
Not found either
We can only understand the Xia Dynasty through history books
According to Sima Qian’s historical records
Dayu was the founding king of the Xia Dynasty
From Dayu to the Xia Kingdom
The Xia Dynasty passed down 14 generations and 17 kings in total.
Speaking of Yu, we have to mention his son
In his early years, he worked with his father to control floods
established one's own prestige
After his death, he succeeded Boyi to the throne.
Before his death, he passed his position to his son Taikang.
Guanyi Taikang
Historical records record that he indulged in hunting all day long
Ignore political affairs
Thus
This breaks the precedent of passing down talents but not to sons.
The Xia Dynasty was established
The scope of Xia people’s activities
Probably in the southern part of today's Shanxi
and central and northern Henan
We call it Huaxia
After Taikang succeeded to the throne
Because of his unfortunate civil
Give others an opportunity
One day Taikang went hunting with his family and close friends.
Won't come back for several months
The Dong Yi people are descendants of the leader of the Qiong clan
Seize the opportunity to lead troops and resist defending Luoshui
Cut off Taikang's way back to Beijing
Taikang can only live in Yangcheng for a long time
That is today’s Taikang County, Henan Province
more than ten years later
He died here
After being brought down by descendants
Same as Taikang
Never leave the government
he hunts everywhere
Leave state affairs to a favorite named Han Zhuo
Han Zhuo saw that Hou Yi ignored political affairs all day long
I feel like the opportunity has come
He started robbing the party for personal gain
wage war
Kill Hou Yi
seized the power of domination
In fact, during this period
Descendants of Yu and Qi
Always looking forward to restoring the rule of the Xia Dynasty
among these descendants
A capable man named Shaokang emerged
Shaokang is the grandson of Taikang's younger brother Zhongkang
He has been homeless since he was a child
After growing up, he joined the powerful Yu tribe
and gained their trust
Later he gathered the remnants of the Xia Dynasty
Kill Han Zhuo
Regained the rule of Xia Dynasty
After that, the Xia Dynasty entered a period of stable development.
After Shaokang, it was passed down to eight generations.
When it reaches Kongjia
The Xia Dynasty began to decline
Kong Jia was very superstitious about ghosts and gods
Just for fun
Ignore government affairs
cause resentment among the people
The princes rebelled
The country is declining
At this time, in the southeast of Xia
There is a tribe called Shang that is rising
According to legend, the originator of Shang was Xie, the son of Emperor Ku of the Five Emperors.
He assisted Yu in controlling floods
Granted the title of Shang Emperor
That is today’s Shangqiu City, Henan Province
The Shang tribe began to develop during the Taikang period
The 14th generation monarch Tang Shi
Except for the two wise men Yi Yin and Zhong Kui,
Soldiers and civilians become virtuous
Let the merchant tribe develop rapidly
At this time, the Xia Dynasty passed down several generations
Passed to Xia Jie's hands
But the Xia Dynasty was still languishing
According to historical records
Xia Jie Kong Wuli
He wanted to revitalize the Xia Dynasty
So for those disobedient tribes
Typing one word
In his opinion
Force can solve all problems
However, this had no effect
On the contrary, it made the shaky Xia Dynasty even worse.
Shang Tang saw the Xia Dynasty's internal and external troubles
People's morale is in turmoil
The countries he ruled rebelled one after another
So he felt that the opportunity had come
Shangtang began to make preparations to extinguish Xia
He focused on developing the economy and population
At the same time, establish good relations with channel tribes
Expand your own strength
At the same time, he implemented extensive human affairs
Win the hearts and minds of the people
later
More and more tribes are opposing subordinates’ support for Shangtang
As the saying goes, a hundred-footed insect
dead but not stiff
There are still some close friends who support Xia Dynasty
For example, Juweigu and Kunwu in the east
SenseTime decided to remove these three eyesores
Just when Shangtang was preparing to conquer the Ten-Tails in the East,
attracted Xia Jie's attention
So he found an excuse to let Shang Tang enter the court.
Shang Tang knew clearly that it was the Hongmen Banquet
But there is no way
Shang is no match for Xia now
Without any choice
Tang can only show up and come to the capital
After arriving in the capital
Xia Jie imprisoned him in the underground prison in Xiatai
After the ministers of Shang knew about it,
Then he began to send a large number of treasures to Xia Jie
and beauties who are good at singing and dancing
History books say that Xia Jie let Shang Tang go when he saw the beauty.
SenseTime who escaped from death
Strengthened the determination to destroy Xia
After Tang returned to Shang
Speed up the plan to destroy Xia
An expedition from the lower realms to the east
Tang seizes the opportunity and kills the Ten-Tails
Therefore Kuangwu Three Kingdoms
Around 1,600 B.C.
Last time I went I felt the time was ripe
Raise troops to attack the tribulation
The nearby princes rushed to respond
Xia Jie mobilizes troops to fight
The two sides were at Mingtiao Branch, east of today's Shangqiu in the Netherlands.
Start a decisive battle
The entire army was wiped out during the Summer Festival
Shangtang did not kill everyone
He exiled Xia Jie to the Southern Dynasties
Jack Xia died here a few years later
The Xia Dynasty fell
The second hereditary regime in Chinese history
business established
