In 1976, in the northwest of Xiaotun Village in Anyang, Henan Province, a farmer was cultivating the land when he suddenly dug up a hard object, and when he opened the soil to see, it was a bronze vessel. He looked at the soil around him again, and it was obviously different from ordinary soil. Horrified, he immediately reported to the relevant departments.
After the archaeologists went to the field, they found that this is an ancient tomb, and many jade and bronze objects with research value have been excavated in the tomb, which makes the archaeologists very excited. Although the tomb here is not large, it is fully furnished and the funerary items are also very rich.
At that time, roughly judging from the specifications and styles of the funerary products, this tomb may be three thousand years old.
For the tomb owner, because the coffin in the tomb has been soaked in water for a long time, when it is dug up, the bones have decayed.
However, through archaeological research, it was first determined that the owner of the tomb was a woman, and at the same time, a jade wrench was found in her bones.
Everyone praised it, but the experts were very excited and immediately gave the answer: this is the tomb of a hero. Why? You know, in ancient times, it was very rare for women to wear jade wrenches. It should be known that the jade wrench is not a luxurious ornament, but has a purpose - the jade wrench used to protect the finger when shooting arrows. In general, it is more common in men's tombs, while it is almost invisible in women's tombs. Therefore, experts estimate that the owner of the tomb is a brave and warlike woman.
So who will the woman in the tomb be?
Rumors soon spread in the area: this was the tomb of Mulan. The reason is that the history books say that Mulan's hometown is in henan, and there are also legends of Mulan's deeds. Therefore, they believe that this is the burial place of the heroine Mulan.
However, archaeologists have come to a different conclusion by studying the oracle bone fragments unearthed in the translation tomb: the tomb owner of this ancient tomb is called a woman. The reason is that from the more than 10,000 pieces of oracle bone fragments unearthed from this ancient tomb, it was found that the name of the woman "Woman Good" was mentioned hundreds of times. Therefore, it is concluded that the "woman is good" is the real owner of this ancient tomb.
Lady Hao was the wife of King Wuding of the Twenty-third Dynasty of the Shang Dynasty, Lady Hao. From the above records, it can be seen that Nühao was sent by Wu Ding to lead more than 13,000 people to conquer the ethnic minority Qiangfang, and as a result, they defeated the Qiangfang and won countless booty.
At the same time, even the famous historical generals Lan and Hou Jiao were under the jurisdiction of Women's Hao. Later, she also participated in the three important battles of the Shang Dynasty against the Tufang, Bafang, and Yifang.
It is worth mentioning that in the campaign against the Pakistani side, Nühao and Wuding adopted the method of dividing the troops into two roads and advancing side by side, and Wuding launched a frontal attack, while Nühao spared no effort and returned to the rear of the Pakistani side.
As a result, when Wu Ding and the Ba side engaged in a great showdown, Nü Hao quickly sent troops from behind and fought with Wu Ding to defeat the Ba side and completely eliminate them.
Woman Hao is not only super military talent, but also knows how to divinate, wu Ding always does not know how to decide, ask her to divinate, and then make decisions. It is precisely because of this that the status of the woman in the Shang Dynasty is also supreme, and it is reported that she even has her own fiefdom. In addition, the woman is responsible for the most sacred sacrifices in the country
At the same time, Nuhao also gave birth to several children for Wuding, of which Zu Geng and Zu Jia later became the King of Shang, which shows that Nuhao can not only "wu" but also "wen", and are outstanding in terms of xiangfu godson.
In short, Wu Ding, with the help of women, has a good situation of Wu Ding Zhongxing.
However, the genius was jealous, and later the woman died of illness. In this regard, Wu Ding was heartbroken and buried him thickly. After that, whenever he led his troops to fight, Wu Ding would take the Minister of Culture and Martial Arts to sacrifice the woman, begging the woman to beg the spirit of heaven to bless him with victory.
It can be seen from this that at least in the Wuding period, women were simply like the god of war.
From the tomb of Women's Good, 1928 pieces of various burial items were found, including 468 pieces of bronze, 755 pieces of jade and 564 pieces of bone tools, many of which are national treasure level cultural relics. In addition, 16 people were martyred. These are enough to prove the dignity of the woman. At the same time, the excavation of the jade wrench confirmed from another side that the record of the woman's life was really credible.
As for Mulan, it is controversial in history.
According to historical records, Mulan appeared during the Sui Dynasty, and her real surname was not Hua but Wei.
During the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Kehan recruited troops, and Hua Mulan's father was also recruited. However, the father was frail and sickly, and only the younger brother who could serve in the army for his father was still a child. In desperation, Mulan made a surprising move, dressed as a man to serve in the army for her father, so she began a 12-year journey to conquer the battlefield, during which she made many achievements.
However, not long after her return, Northern Zhou perished, so she defected to Emperor Wen of Sui. Emperor Wen of Sui wanted to make her a Shangshu, but she refused. After returning home, he took off his military uniform and changed back into his daughter's body.
After the imperial court heard about it, it wanted to take her as a concubine, but Mulan actually refused to die.
After Hua Mulan finally died in the mountains, the Tang Emperor posthumously named Hua Mulan a general and built the Mulan Shrine for her.
"Chirping and chirping, Mulan when weaving..." A folk song "Mulan Ci" from the Southern and Northern Dynasties period, Hua Mulan became a well-known story for her father's military service, and she was also sought after by people in all dynasties, and during the Tang Dynasty, she was posthumously named "General Xiaolie" by the emperor, and to this day, the film and television about her are also not endless.
However, whether the heroic figure of Mulan is indeed a person or has been fabricated by the history books is still a mystery.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that the girl who served in the army for her father in "Mulan Ci" is called Mulan, her surname is Mulan and her surname is Hua, she is a Xianbei tribe, I don't know if it is the prototype of Mulan.
