: 145 Chinese Sword 1

Next, Liu Zhenhe refers to some historical documents such as "Historical Records. Xia Benji", "Bamboo Chronicles. Xiahoushi", "Emperor Century. The Third (Xia)", etc. Records of Xia Dynasty historical materials.
Liu Zhen's interpretation read more about the inscription on the inner wall of 'Iqipan'.
This is a glorious inscription.
In the inscriptions, praise the achievements of Dayu: ‘Control floods, settle down the world’, ‘Throw down three seedlings’, ‘Develop calendars and guide agricultural production’, ‘Dividing the country into Kyushu’.
Qi's achievements: The Dongyi tribe leader Boyi was defeated by force, defeating his successor, and defeating the powerful Youyi through the Battle of Gan, which consolidated the Xia Dynasty.
...
There is a text below the picture of the "Iqipan", which occupies half a sheet of paper, about several hundred words. The text tells that Chen Rui has conducted a detailed and detailed summary and analysis of the "Iqipan".
The text recounted: When Yi Qi Pan was cast in Xia Xie's reign, it was cast by a person named Yi Qi who was a Tai Shiling in the Xia Dynasty, so I called it Yi Qi Pan.
First Chen Rui told the origin of the name of Yi Qipan, and then entered the text.
Through Yi Qipan's research, we can understand at least three aspects of the history and social life of the Xia Dynasty.
First, the Xia Dynasty had mature and progressive writing.
Second, the Xia Dynasty possessed advanced bronze smelting technology and bronze casting technology.
Third, the Xia Dynasty was a very unified tribal alliance country.
Chen Rui used three omnidirectional pictures of the front, inner wall, and bottom of the Yiqi plate and a textual summary and analysis of the Yiqi plate research. Let's demonstrate that at the beginning of the thesis, Chen Ruiming Zong Kaiyi put forward an argument ‘Xia Dynasty exists, which I have no doubt about. The Xia Dynasty has entered the threshold of civilization, and I am very sure of this. ’
There is also a paragraph below. In the text, Chen Rui gives a complete pedigree of the Xia Dynasty and a list of major historical events in the Xia Dynasty.
Liu Zhenhe looked at the three clear pictures of the front, inner wall, and bottom of the Qi Qipan on the manuscript. The contributors summarized and analyzed the Yi Qipan's exquisite text below the picture.
Liu Zhenhe expressed his affirmation.
The pictures of Yiqi Pan are very clear, and the sophisticated summary and analysis of Yiqi Pan are in place, detailed and reasonable.
If it can be determined that the Yiqi disk on the picture is true.
Then it can be confirmed with certainty and certainty that ‘Xia Dynasty exists, and Xia Dynasty has entered the threshold of civilization.
These two international and domestic academic circles have always had much controversial issues.
Thinking of this, Liu Zhen and his chest almost exploded, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.
The hand holding the manuscript trembled because he was too excited.
An ecstatic expression appeared on a thin, wrinkled face.
If at this time one of his students happened to pass by his office. Seeing Liu Zhen sitting in the office through the glass window of the office and his expression at this time, he would be very surprised.
To know. The image that Liu Zhenhe has always given is a steady and very serious person.
His students rarely saw the expression on his face, and in his eyes was a poker face.
Yi Qipan brought Liu Zhen and a very big surprise.
Liu Zhenhe is looking forward to what he will see in the manuscript.
Liu Zhenhe opened the next page of the thesis with anticipation.
A bronze sword caught his eyes.
The bronze sword is flat and bright, with fine structure and no trachoma. The blade is thin and sharp, and cold.
Liu Zhen and his eyes could not help but closed, this is an extremely sharp bronze sword, dazzling makes people dare not look directly at its sword.
A bronze sword that has not been rusted for thousands of years is a miracle. It also shows that the Xia Dynasty had very superb bronze smelting technology.
Liu Zhenhe found a series of inscriptions near the hilt of the sword. The inscription read: "Heavenly inherits his fate, and the world is salty.
The eight-character inscription embodies the emperor's power and dominance.
"This is a true sword of Emperor Tao." Liu Zhenhe said with a feeling.
It is time to redefine the sword of the emperor.
In ancient China, there were ten legends of world-renowned swords.
The sword of the Cause, Xuanyuan Xia Yujian.
The sword of benevolence. Zhanyu.
Sword of Emperor Tao, Chixiao.
Sword of Prestige, Ta'a.
Sword of integrity and cleanliness. Qixing Longyuan.
The sword of sincerity, Gan Jiang, Mo Xie.
Invincible sword, fish intestines.
Honorable sword, pure Jun.
Each of the ten famous swords tells a story, and each sword represents a good Chinese character.
Sword of Emperor Tao. The red sword can be replaced with this bronze sword. This bronze sword is more suitable for the name of Emperor Daodao than the red sword.
The Red Night Sword is compared with this bronze sword. One grade worse.
There is a text under the bronze sword picture.
Qi Jian, Xia Yuzi Emperor Qi was cast in the eighth year of Gengbi, 89.7 cm long.
There are few words, less than 20 words, but a brief summary.
First, the time when the bronze sword was named was introduced.
Second, focus on the length of the bronze sword, 89.7 cm.
Why would Chen Rui focus on the length of this bronze sword here?
Outsiders may not understand. You introduce a sword. The important ones are the ornaments, ornaments, and inlaid gems. You do n’t talk about it. You have to focus on the length of the bronze sword. This is not the point. Didn't describe it at all.
However, Liu Zhenhe knew that Chen Rui would focus on the meaning of the length of the bronze sword here.
This length is quite remarkable in the Xia Dynasty.
As we all know, in the Bronze Age, the key to casting swords was how much tin was added to the copper during smelting.
Less tin, the sword is too soft; more tin, the sword is hard, and it is easy to break.
Therefore, the bronze swords of the Shang dynasty found in archeology are generally short in length, only twenty or thirty centimeters, and are relatively rough.
Until the Qin Dynasty ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Guanzhong Qin Jian's length reached 80 cm, the longest can reach 95 cm.
The Qi sword is 89.7 cm, nearly 90 cm. Its copper-tin ratio allows the hardness and toughness of the bronze sword to be combined just right.
The length of the Qi Jian can indicate that the bronze smelting technology at that time in the Xia Dynasty has developed to a very mature and advanced level.
From the founding age.
The blade is sharp.
This is an emperor's sword.
And through Kai Sword, traveling through time and space, back to the Xia Dynasty copper casting workshop more than 4,000 years ago, I personally felt that the Xia Dynasty had very mature, advanced bronze smelting technology and exquisite bronze sword casting technology.
To sum up these four aspects, Liu Zhenhe thinks that Qi Kai is called the first sword of Huaxia.
Xuanyuan Xia Yujian, who is more qualified than Qijian to become China's first sword, is a legendary thing, which is not true. (To be continued)
