The Xiong surname is one of the oldest surnames in China, dating back to the Chu state during the Western Zhou Dynasty, the earliest called the Jing state, later changed to the State of Chu, the monarch of the state is the Xiong surname Xiong (Jin Wen is the surname of 嬭). When King Ji of Zhou cheng recited, he posthumously honored the descendants of meritorious ministers and the great-grandson of the leader of the Jing clan, Huan Xiong, as a viscount, and the capital of the land was fifty miles, and the capital was established in Danyang, which was the state of Jing.
The monarch was grateful for the grace of his great-grandfather, and took the word "bear (酓)" of his great-grandfather Bear as his clan, which led to the current Bear (酓) clan.
At the beginning of the founding of the people, the country was poor and weak, and in order to sacrifice to the ancestors, it had to go to the state of Gui to steal a calf (鄀国, located between the Qin and Chu states, moved to the inner township county south of the Huaichuan River in Henan in the spring and autumn, called XiaJiao. It is a small country in the Qin and Chu realms), afraid of people's discovery, only secretly sacrificed at night, and later generations of monarchs also inherited the tradition of worshiping ancestors at night.
Xiong Xuan paid tribute to Zhou Tianzi for the first time, and he really couldn't come up with something decent, and the "Zuo Biography" contained, "In the past, I first king Xiong Xuan, and set up in Jingshan ... The road is blue and sloppy. Trek through the mountains and rivers, to do things to the son of heaven, but to peach and lonely thorns, to jointly rule the king's affairs." The so-called peach lonely and thorny arrow are bows made of peach wood and arrows made of branches. After Zhou Tianzi saw the rare treasures of the other princes, he saw that all xiong xuan paid tribute to was bows and arrows. It was very unpleasant. When Zhou Tianzi feasted on the princes, Xiong Xuan was sent to manage the liquor and "guard the fire" with the Xianbei chieftain. Feeling greatly humiliated, the princes of the hall, who were not eligible to participate in the alliance of the princes, became miscellaneous servants serving the princes. From then on, the State of Chu refused to pay tribute to Zhou Tianzi, causing Zhou Tianzi to be angry. Leading the princes to kill the Chu state, the two thousand or so old and weak women and children of the Chu state were the opponents of the thirty thousand princes and soldiers. The Chu people only took advantage of the favorable terrain to carry out guerrilla warfare (my ancestors should be the originators of guerrilla warfare). In the past three years, Zhou Tianzi fought three times, and King Zhou Zhaowang died on the way to conquest. He sent lobbyists to the Chu state to persuade the Chu state to pay tribute, and Zhou Tianzi withdrew. At this point, the Chu people planted the seeds of no return.
After dozens of generations of kings, the Eastern Expeditions and the Western Expeditions. When the territory of the State of Chu was at its largest: it was bordered by Yongyu in the north; Wuling in the south; It was also in the south of Yuezhi; Yangzhou in the east; and it was bound to Liangzhou in the west and Yi in the southwest. With Fang and Jizhi, if the present-day Jiangnan and Jiangxi provinces belong to Chu and Qiang, if he is the five provinces of Zhejiang, shandong yifu, Guangdong erfu, Yunnan sifu, Guizhou erfu, Sichuan yifu and yidong, Henan yifu, each has its own territory belonging to Chu. Jiangxi belongs to the chu land: Nan'an. Ganzhou. YUAN Zhou. Jian. Linjiang. Fuzhou. Jianchang. Nan Kang. Raozhou is all , other Jiujiang. Guangxin. Nanchang is also the friend of Wu Chu.
The State of Chu has lasted for eight hundred years, passing on thirty-one monarchs, calling the king twenty-five, because "Xiong" (酓) is a unique surname of the king, only forty-three are surnamed with "Bear", and there are only fifty xiong clans in the broad sense, and seventy-two great wang clans have been derived, such as Qu, Jing, Zhao, Dou, Bao, Ye, Zhuang, Yan, etc., dozens of compound surnames, such as Shangguan, Shu'ao, Ruo'ao, San lu, Wu Chen, Bobbi, Shi Qi, Quan Yin, etc., and their side branches have derived hundreds of surnames.
