Chapter 387: The Mystery of the Twelve Golden Men of the First Emperor!
"This is the twelve golden men of the first emperor recorded by an unknown little historian!", Bai Xue exclaimed, this is too hard to believe, you must know that many historical records and wild histories say that after Xiang Yu attacked Xianyang, Xiang Yu, who had no weapons and equipment because of recruitment, simply melted down the twelve golden men erected on the square in front of Xianyang Palace and used them to cast weapons. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Legend has equipped 100,000 people!
Although many people, including most scientists, believe that these golden figures were used by Xiang Yu to cast weapons, some archaeologists and writers believe that these twelve golden figures should have been secretly hidden before Xiang Yu invaded Xianyang. It's a pity that there has been no evidence, so the two factions have been debating!", Bai Xue continued.
Others believe that the purpose of Qin Shi Huang's initiative to cast gold figures was twofold: one was to boast of his martial arts and whitewash the peace, and the other was to prevent the people from revolting. According to the "Historical Records of Qin Shi Huang Benji", after the unification of Qin, Qin Shi Huang accepted Li Si's suggestion not to seal the country and place the king, saying: "The world is fighting hard and endlessly, so as to have a prince." Lai Zongmiao, the world was first decided, and the country was restored, it is a tree soldier, and it is not difficult to ask for its peace!" So, "the world is divided into thirty-six counties, and the counties are guarded, captained, and imprisoned." The name was changed to 'Qianshou'. Collect the world's soldiers, gather Xianyang, sell it as Zhong Tie (this word reads ju, the fourth tone), Jin people twelve, weigh thousands of stones, and place them in the palace. A law to weigh the stone ruler. The car is on the same track. The book is the same as the text". Here the "collection of the world's soldiers" is linked to "seeking their peace", and it can be seen that Qin Shi Huang's intention was to be peaceful. He announced the "Great Ketone", and the whole country celebrated this great victory, showing great greatness. The mood of joy, and the bronze man and the bell are also symbolizing auspiciousness and the meaning of peace in the world. In addition, Qin Shi Huang's inscriptions on his travels around the country are also words that boast of martial arts and whitewash the peace. Bai Xue made some of the origins and histories of the Twelve Golden People of the First Emperor clear, and many of them came at her fingertips without thinking at all, which shows that her ancient historical attainments are very profound.
"Of course, this is just a statement, and the more bizarre theory is that this was forged by the First Emperor in order to communicate with the heavens!
"It's not unfounded, isn't it true that the First Emperor sent Xu Fu overseas to look for Penglai Immortal Island just to find the immortal elixir? If there is some Taoist warlock who has deceived the First Emperor who already wants to live forever, he doesn't have the possibility of this idea!", Xu Ling smiled and looked at the three daughters, and motioned for Bai Xue to translate the things in it.
It says that he was a court historian, and after the death of the First Emperor, the Second Emperor continued to let him serve as a historian. In 207 BC, Liu Bang invaded Xianyang, and Xiang Yu entered the city. Just half a month before Liu Bang's army entered Xianyang, Prince Ying of Qin sent his henchmen to secretly send the twelve Jin people away and bury them in accordance with the ancestral teachings! There is not even a mention of the ship returning together. Bai Xue translated the small seal on it word by word, and sometimes she had to pause, and she also had to sort out the information on it, without punctuation, which was very torturous. In the end, the boat recorded by the little official did not return together, and there is a lot of information in it!
"In other words, these twelve golden people are not melted by Xiang Yu at all, but secretly hidden somewhere by the last Qin prince baby. Xu Bing looked at the bamboo slips, looked at Bai Xue and said.
"Yes, but do you know how heavy the twelve golden people are in the historical records? The records say that the first emperor collected the world's soldiers, gathered them in Xianyang, and sold them as bells, twelve golden people, weighing thousands of stones, and placed them in the palace! In ancient times, a stone is about 30 kilograms now, how many golden people do you count?", Bai Xue asked Yu Ying and Xu Bing with a smile.
"One is probably more than 30,000 kilograms, which... This... It's impossible, isn't it?How did they cast?How did they stand up, how did they move?" Xu Bing calculated, a little dumbfounded.
"Yes, more than thirty tons, and it will take a lot of effort now, people at that time?" Yu Ying also felt impossible.
"Do you know the pearl protection pagoda in Shanghai and the legendary little wild goose pagoda in Anxi Sankai? Don't underestimate the ancient craftsmen. ”。 Xu Ling looked at the second daughter with a smile, he was very clear about the craftsmanship of the ancient craftsmen in China, and the things that modern people could not solve, but the ancient people clearly told you that we solved them! The most famous is the underground drainage system of the old county town of Gan and the water drainage system of the Qianlong outlet in the imperial capital. Tell us a shame about the modern drainage system! Well, I heard that the drainage system of the old city wall of Nanjing is also very powerful!
"Brother, it's hard to imagine how they transported the Jin people, you must know that the largest ship at that time would not exceed thirty meters, and the buoyancy should be able to bear such a large weight, it is possible for the large maritime ships of the Song Dynasty!", Xu Bing frowned, she also thought that it could not be transported.
"The pyramids were also considered impossible to build. You know, according to the calculations of some scientists, to support such a huge project, Egypt needed at least 40 million people at that time, but there were not so many people in the world at that time!", Xu Ling spread his hands, with a smile on his face, and between his every move, his chic and handsome temperament was revealed, which made them look a little stupid for a while!
In ancient times, Xianyang was now a part of Xi'an and a part of Xianyang City, and the scope was very large, so it was a fool's dream to find the twelve golden men of the first emperor according to this historical data!
Even if it disappeared along the Weishui River, it is not known whether it sank to the bottom of the river or was transported somewhere to be buried. Maybe only Prince Qin and his own soldiers knew about it!
"It's a sight to behold, but that's all it is when you think about it. And if you can't find the golden person, I don't know if it's true or not. ", Yu Ying said with some regret.
"Okay, there will be clues if you have a fate, go to bed early, my brother is tired too. Xu Ling pulled Yu Ying and Bai Xue's hands and motioned to go back to the room.
The three of them said good night to Xu Ling, Xu Ling waved his hand, smiled and watched them close the door.
After locking the door, Xu Ling entered the space, and he had another heavy treasure, and before that, he was familiar with the changes brought about by the expansion of the space.
Entering the space, the sky is no longer gray, but a clear light is sprinkled, making the space look a little vibrant. The space expanded to a radius of 100 miles, this is the moon in the sky, Xu Ling can only be called that, after the moon came in!
