Are Miao people descendants of Chiyou?

Chiyou is the leader of Jiuli, with many achievements and occasional disputes. The relationship between Jiuli, represented by Chiyou, and Sanmiao, another tribal group, according to various ancient books such as Shangshu and Guoyu and their biographies and notes, Sanmiao came from Jiuli, but after Jiuli. Jiuli was defeated, and the people dispersed and evolved into Sanmiao. However, many scholars disagree that there is no origin between Jiuli and Sanmiao. Another explanation is that Chiyou and the military leader of the tribal alliance have the same title, so he is not only the descendant of Emperor Yan, but also the leader of the two groups and the king of Jiuli. Later, Sanmiao Group also used it. Chiyou and Dongyi people often call Chiyou the leader of Dongyi. In fact, "Dongyi" is the name after the formation of the pattern of "five parties of Hua and Yi" in Shang and Zhou Dynasties, which is much later than Chiyou, or it is more appropriate to say that Dongyi is Chiyou. Later generations, the national Chiyou was defeated by the Yellow Emperor, and the people scattered. The nationalities that may be related to it in later generations are Miao, Han and Qiang. According to some Miao epics, ballads and legends, Chiyou is the great ancestor of the Miao nationality and has a very high status. Some scholars, especially Miao scholars, pointed out that Miao ancestors originally lived in the Yellow River valley in ancient times, but were forced to migrate to today's Guizhou, Xiangxi, southwestern Hubei and other regions because of being defeated by the Huaxia nationality. After the relationship with the Han Chiyou was defeated, some people merged into the Yanhuang Group, thus becoming the ancestors of some Chinese people and even the Han people today. Some Han surnames may be related to Chiyou, such as Zou, Tu, Li and Chi. According to the biography of Xiqiang in the later Han Dynasty, some people of Sanmiao migrated westward. If we acknowledge the relationship between Chiyou and Sanmiao, Chiyou may also be the ancestor of Qiang. The relationship with Koguryo, a branch of Dongyi, may be related to Fuyu and even Koguryo later.
