Although there are many deductive versions, Yang Jiajiang does exist. Yang Jiye, the first generation, took refuge in the Later Han Dynasty and the Later Zhou Dynasty, and became an anti-Liao general after joining the Northern Song Dynasty. It's a pity that he was framed by Pan Renmei and died in front of him.
Before his death, he left seven sons, the most famous being his eldest son, Yang Liulang Yang. Six stars were regarded as war stars in the Northern Song Dynasty, so they were named Liulang. In recognition of his achievements in resisting Liao Dynasty, he was given an honorific title, which was actually his eldest son.
The records of the other six sons are not detailed. The representative of the third generation of the Yang family is Yang, the son of Yang. At that time, the war ahead was relatively relaxed, and the Northern Song Dynasty had signed an armistice agreement with Liao. Yang is a famous grandfather, but in fact he doesn't have much meritorious military service.
Since Yang, Yangjiaji has been declining. However, due to too many deductive versions, the Yang family seems to gradually expand in the process of deduction. For example, there are seven dragons and eight tigers, and there are twenty-two Yang family women generals. These characters do not exist.
But she does exist. He is Yang Jiye's wife. However, the centenarians in romance novels are in command, but in reality they are not. However, there are many descendants of the Yang family, and not many have been found.
Yang's descendants:
Yang Yongjiu, a citizen of Jilin, dug out a copy of Yang Family Tree from home. Although it is only a simple 300-page book, according to the contents recorded above, it is as follows:
Yang Zu was born in Guizhou and moved to Yongji with his family in. 、? Chasing the distant hall? And so on. It seems that the descendants of the Yang family moved here, and there are many stories about the contribution of the descendants of the Yang family. For example, in the Qing dynasty, five descendants of the Yang family were named generals by the Qing government, and more than 30 people held positions in the military.
Later, after searching, they were found to be descended from Yang Jiye's 28th grandson, whose name was Yang Rong. Besides him, there is a brother at home. At that time, my father had lived in reed flute cave, Shanxi, but Yang Rong later moved to Guizhou.
Later, due to the war, Yang Rong's family came to Jilin from Guizhou. Later, his grandson and grandnephew gave birth to eight children and then formed eight branches. His eighth grandson is Yang Fengxiang, deputy commander-in-chief of Heilongjiang Province, who was once a very famous anti-Russian general.
Later, according to the cultural relics management department of Jilin Province, the descendant of Yang Jiajiang here is indeed Yang Jiajiang.
The descendants of Yangjia's nine generations in the same village
There are two adjacent villages, Yang Jiacun Village and Xinyang Village, more than 0 km west of Xichun Town in Gaochun County 10. The people in the two villages are basically surnamed Yang, living under the same roof, and they are all descendants.
Of the two villages, Yang Guangmu, who has the highest seniority in 102, is now over 90 years old. The youngest generation is Yang Lin, who is still in the second grade, with a difference of eight times, which happens to be nine generations living under one roof.
Although they claim to be direct descendants, they do not regard Yang, 78, as the ancestor, but always regard him as the ancestor. Because they didn't live in Gaochun county, they moved here when Yang was here.
The whole village still abides by many traditions, such as not listening to or singing "Shuanglong Club". Before children enter school, everyone must kneel in front of the ancestral hall and listen to the story of Yang Jiajiang told by the elders at home.
A descendant of Yang Jiajiang from Alayang Village, Fenghuang, Hunan.
In a remote hut in Fenghuang County, Hunan Province, there lived more than 200 families named Yang, who claimed to be descendants. The 36-year-old Yang claimed to be a descendant of the 37th generation, and even produced a scanned version of Yang's genealogy.
The genealogy records the origin of their pulse because the Miao people rebelled in those days. Yang Liulang's third son, Yang Zaisi, was ordered to go south to quell the chaos. Because of the dangerous terrain, Yang Zaisi decided to stay here. Later, the dynasties changed constantly and never came out of here again.
The whole village is built on the mountain. Except for the west gate, the village is divided into three parts: upper, middle and lower. The design method of every household in the village seems to form a maze. It may be a preventive mode specially created by bandits in the early years.
Although they are descendants of Yang Jiajiang, they all make a living by farming. There are thousands of people in the village, only a few college students have come out. They hope that the best way to get rich is to make villagers' lives better through tourism.
Therefore, over the years, the whole village has been actively applying for tourism culture-related matters, but it has not been successful. Are they descendants of the Yang family? There are still questions.
However, their Shujiatang is indeed an ancient city, and now it is a national key cultural relics protection unit. In fact, whether they are descendants of Yang Jiajiang is not important, but it is more important to protect their local culture.
KaiHua Yang, an old man who is proficient in Yang's gun skills.
Since Yang Jiajiang has been mentioned, we have to mention the famous Yangjia gun. However, for thousands of years, will there be a Yang family and grandchildren? Let's look at KaiHua Yang, the 37th generation descendant of Yang Jiye.
At that time, in order to avoid the Yuan army, KaiHua Yang's grandparents came to Sichuan. Because Sichuan is a natural barrier, KaiHua Yang's ancestors decided to settle here at that time, and it has continued to this day.
KaiHua Yang told reporters that there are not many people in the younger generation who can use the Yangjia gun now. Most people go out to work, only some old people and women stay at home. I used this marksmanship to save people when I was young.
He also told reporters that there was a tradition left at home at that time. When everyone reaches a certain age, they should learn some unique skills to commemorate our ancestors and the days when we lived. However, with the development of peace and prosperity, many people forget the guy who eats.
Therefore, KaiHua Yang's heart was full of worries, because he was old, but none of his children and grandchildren showed strong interest in marksmanship. He is worried that the stunts they have learned in this respect may be destroyed by him.
Descendants of Yang Family in Ludijian Village under Yanmenguan
Ludijian Village, which has always been famous for its ancestral temple, has a population of more than 1 000, but more than half of them are Yang, and they all claim to be descendants. In the middle of the village, there is also a magnificent Yangjia ancestral hall.
Built in the Yuan Dynasty, this ancestral temple is the largest one in China at present. Inside is Qiu's memorial hall, and the ancestral hall is also called the shrine. There is a very big deer hoof stone in front of the ancestral hall, and there is a legend behind it.
Sun, 14 generation, once shot a sika deer while hunting, but he escaped with an arrow. So I chased him all the way to the present Ludijian village. He watched the sika deer disappear into the ground. When it was dug up, he found a stone.
There is a deer on it, an arrow on it, and a row of deer hoofprint on the bottom. So he moved this stone to the present Yang Zhongwu Temple, and the whole village was renamed after this stone.
Sacrifice is held in the village every year, and the whole village gets together to sing Yang Jiajiang's opera, which is very lively. Ludijian Village here is also regarded as one of the largest ancestral homes by many descendants of Yang Jiajiang scattered all over the motherland.
Are there really so many descendants of Yang Jiajiang?
You can see from what I said before. Many clans claim to be descendants of Yang Jiajiang, and their generations are always hundreds of generations. But we should know that Yang Jiajiang is only 1000 years away from now. What do you mean hundreds of people?
Although ancient people generally married early and gave birth early, most of them got married at the age of 18 and gave birth to more than 20 children. However, not everyone's first child is a boy. In addition, due to ancient medical conditions, even if it is really a boy, it may not be possible to stay.
So it is estimated that there will be a generation in almost 30 years. The closer to the story of Yang Jiajiang, the longer the interval. For example, my family tree, the farthest record is more than 600 years, but less than the 20th century.
Let's talk about the descendants of Confucius first, because Confucius is respected as the head of Confucianism. Therefore, every dynasty, every generation, the descendants of Confucius will be sealed, and their genealogy has basically never been broken.
Confucius, who lived more than 2,500 years ago, only lived in his family for more than 80 generations. Then, Yang Jiajiang is only 1000 years ago. Why are there people with1000 generations?
In fact, you can give a guess, because many genealogies were compiled in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In this process, there were many suspects attached to the phoenix before the Ming and Qing Dynasties, so if we can find the genealogy before the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the credibility will be great enough.
