Dog Rong

In ancient times, it lived in the area of Shaanxi and Gansu. Its capital is located in Weirong Town, Jingning County, Gansu Province. At the end of the Western Zhou Dynasty, because king you of Zhou abandoned his royal family and established a commoner, the Shenhou united with the state of ZA and Xiyi dog army to attack king you of Zhou. As a result, king you of Zhou was attacked and killed by dog army, his favorite concubine Bao Si was captured, and the capital Feng and Hao were occupied by dog army. The Western Zhou Dynasty, which was once strong for a time, was destroyed.

The Central Plains Dynasty called all the nomads in Northwest China "dog Rong" and "Rong Di". During the reign of emperor Zong of the Tang Dynasty, Dr. Taichang Liu and his wife Shangshu said: "the dog soldiers committed the crime of Guan Du long and entered the capital without blood blade..." During the period of emperor Dezong of Tang Dynasty, Minister Liu Hun said to Emperor Dezong, "Rong Di, jackal, is not an oath."

Interpretation

At that time, the white dog was as fierce as a wolf, and the totem of the clan was a wolf. However, the dog in the family was a member of the family and respected it very much, so it was named "Canrong".

Origin

Gourong: ancient clan name, once active in today's Shaanxi, Gansu area. In the period of king you of Zhou Dynasty, the king of you played with the princes and played with the military affairs. Baosi, the king's favorite concubine, was captured by the Hourong clan, and the northwest of Fenghe and Haohe were occupied by the Hourong clan. In 352, the Western Zhou Dynasty was destroyed.

The princes jointly expelled Canrong, and the state of Qin, who herded horses for the emperor, took part in the fight against the nomads for many years, and then stepped onto the big stage of fighting for the world. Since then, the dog army has become one of the strong enemies of the Chinese nation.

At the beginning of the spring and Autumn period, gourong became a strong enemy of the state of Qin. Later, one of the Canrong's branches moved to the Mongolian grassland and became one of the Earliest Nomads in the Mongolian grassland.

Until the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains Dynasty also referred to all the northwest nomads as "dog Rong" and "Rong Di". During the reign of emperor Zong of the Tang Dynasty, Dr. Taichang Liu and his wife Shangshu said: "the dog soldiers committed the crime of Guan Du long and entered the capital without blood blade..." During the period of emperor Dezong of Tang Dynasty, Minister Liu Hun said to Emperor Dezong, "Rong Di, jackal, is not an oath."

According to the literature, the gourong people are the oldest nomadic people in Northwest China who claim that their ancestors are two white dogs and take the white dog as their totem. As early as the Yanhuang period, the Canrong clan was the strong enemy of Yanhuang. "The book of the later Han Dynasty" records: "in the past, Gaoxin's family had the enemy of Canrong. The emperor suffered from the invasion and violence, but he was unable to fight." Gao Xin is the great grandson of the Yellow Emperor and the father of Emperor Yao.

According to the records of Houhanshu, in the Han Dynasty, there was a large population of white wolf country in Xirong. By the time of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty, "White Wolf More than one hundred other countries, with more than 1.3 million households and more than 6 million people, voluntarily belonged to the Eastern Han Dynasty. The white wolf king also ordered people to write three poems, collectively known as the White Wolf song, dedicated to the emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Therefore, the White Wolf Kingdom is a variety of Canrong, the white wolf king is the descendant of Canrong, and the White Wolf tribe is a tribe that worships the White Wolf and takes the white wolf as its totem. The existence of the White Wolf country can also prove that the white dog worshipped by gourong is probably the white wolf.

Historical records

Since the middle of the Western Zhou Dynasty, with the weakening of the Zhou Dynasty, the four kings, Gong, Yi, Xiao and Yi, could only keep their achievements, while Rong and di gradually flourished in the northwest. In particular, Yao Yu further strengthened the pressure on the Zhou Dynasty and invaded from time to time. During the reign of King Xuan of Zhou, after a period of accumulation of strength, King Xuan ordered Yin Jifu, Nan Zhong and others to go out to fight against Yuyu and won a great victory. However, in the late years of King Xuan, the Zhou Dynasty showed signs of decline. When king you of Zhou ascended the throne, he took Guo Shi's father, who was good at profit, as his minister. The empress Shen (the daughter of marquis Shen) and the crown prince Yi Jiu were abolished, and Bao Si was appointed as the empress. The son Ji Bo served as the crown prince, and he planned to question Marquis Shen.

In the 11th year of king you of the Zhou Dynasty (771 BC), Shenhou united with the army of ZA (today's Zaozhuang East in Shandong Province) and Canrong to attack the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty (Fengjing and Haojing, today's Xi'an West). The royal guards of Zhou Dynasty had no fighting power and were on the verge of collapse. The king of you fled in a hurry with Baosi and Prince Bofu, and was finally overtaken by the army of Canrong. You Wang was killed at the foot of Lishan Mountain and died in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Later, the Allied forces of Jin, Zheng, Wei, Qin and other princes defeated the army of the dog army and established Yi Jiu as the king. They moved their capital to Luo (now Luoyang, Henan Province), which is known as the "Eastern Zhou Dynasty" in history. It was destroyed by the state of Qin.
