Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 23 Qin Terracotta Warriors
Lishan is only more than 160 miles away from Xianyang. Fusu and his party were not in a hurry, and it took four or five days to arrive.

"Is this Lishan Mountain?" Looking into the distance, Fusu saw that the mountains in front of him were uplifted, and the faults were scattered. It is located on the plain formed by the river at the northern foot of Lishan Mountain.

On the side of the road ahead, a stone tablet stands, on which the word "Lishan" is engraved.

"Yes, Brother Su, this place has already reached the boundary of Lishan Mountain." Mo Chu looked at the verdant Lishan Mountain in the distance, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

"It is said that Lishan Mountain looks like a black horse, hence the name. The imperial mausoleum is surrounded by the peaks of Lishan Mountain, and it is integrated with the whole Lishan Mountain, just like a lotus stamen in the middle." Regarding the situation of the imperial mausoleum , Mo Chu knew far more details than Fusu.

Fu Su nodded slightly. Even from the perspective of Feng Shui in later generations, the location of the imperial mausoleum is also a good place, with Lishan Mountain in the south and Weishui River in the north.

"Chang Shi, from now on, I will be your clerk, and now it is up to you to give orders." Seeing Sima Xin walking behind him, Fu Su said.

Sima Xin bowed: "Don't dare."

The convoy rested for a while, Sima Xin saw that Fusu entrusted the command to himself, and immediately said: "The convoy is leaving." The group of people marched towards the imperial mausoleum.

Naturally, it is impossible for the traces of Fusu and his party to enter Lishan quietly. The imperial mausoleum is heavily guarded by heavy soldiers. What's more, there are still hundreds of thousands of prisoners working here, and no one dares to take it lightly. People are free to come and go.

In order to build the imperial mausoleum, Yingzheng also specially built a city on the north side of the imperial mausoleum for the activities and offices of the builders, managers, designers, and transporters.

After reporting layer by layer, Fusu and his party finally settled in a post station in Liyi. Beside the post station, not far away was the government office built for supervising officials.

Naturally, the post station was not comparable to Fusu's house in Xianyang City, but it was clean and tidy, and Fusu was not too picky.

After a while, Sima Xin took Fusu to the official office.

In the center of the lobby of the official office, there is a huge model, which shows the internal structure of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum. Fusu took a closer look and found that the layout of the entire imperial mausoleum is very similar to that of Xianyang, the capital of the Qin Kingdom. glyph.

It is immediately clear that Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum was built according to the principle of "things die as things live". As the No. so.

It has to be said that his father, Huang Yingzheng, was a man obsessed with power.

The entire cemetery is divided into four levels. The lower palace city is the core part, the others are the inner city, the outer city and the outside of the outer city. They are clearly separated from each other.

Even after seeing this model, Fusu felt that the whole imperial tomb was extremely huge.

Seeing clearly the original appearance of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor 2000 years ago, Fusu's heart was not only shocked, but also shocked.

Since the beginning of Qin Shihuang, the first thing the emperors of later generations have to do after succeeding to the throne is to build their own imperial mausoleum, and when the imperial mausoleum project will end depends entirely on how long the emperor can live.

Since Yingzheng ascended the throne at the age of 13, the construction of the mausoleum began. Fusu clearly remembered that Qin Shihuang's mausoleum was basically completed after more than a year of construction when Qin II Hu Hai succeeded to the throne.

If it weren't for Chen Sheng's army being close at hand, I'm afraid the construction period would be delayed.It took 39 years before and after, and the manpower, material resources and various resources invested in it are really far away.

The investment of such huge resources naturally made Fusu feel distressed.However, Fusu knew that he could not speak out against it, on the contrary, he had to strongly support it, which is called political correctness.The imperial mausoleum is where the reigning emperor announces to the world the legitimacy and legitimacy of his dynasty. Anyone who dares to challenge will suffer the most brutal suppression and destruction.

Leaving the official office, Fusu found a huge brick kiln, and it was hard for such a brick kiln not to attract attention.The bricks and tiles needed for the entire imperial mausoleum were provided by this brick and tile kiln, including the world-famous Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses, which were also fired in this brick and tile kiln.

Therefore, this brick and tile kiln covers a very large area.

Walking into the brick kiln, you can see countless potters busy inside, each performing their own duties, like worker bees in a hive, busy.

The loess excavated on site is mixed with quartz sand to make a rough embryo, and then the head, hands and torso that are made separately are combined to complete the initial production of the pottery figurines. , and then paint the colors one by one to complete the production of pottery figurines.

Although these are all produced in the form of an assembly line, when making servant heads, the sculpting techniques for the facial features, beard and hair of the head vary in various ways, so as to show different personalities of the characters. After such meticulous carving, It is almost impossible to see the smell of molding, and it is almost impossible to find two identical faces.

Every step is orderly and very organized. After the production is completed, the craftsmen who made it will also engrave their names on the pottery figurines.

This method is called "Wu Le Gong Ming". It was originally used in the production of ordnance, and as time went by, it was gradually used in various aspects to ensure the quality of the items produced by craftsmen.

Fusu was originally a technical nerd from later generations. Originally, in his heart, he had already overestimated these skilled craftsmen 2000 years ago as much as possible. ridiculous.

Everything that appeared in front of him had a huge impact on his eyeballs and created storms in his mind.

Just painting, there are as many as a dozen mineral pigments placed there.You know, this is ancient China before BC, and in the process of coloring the pottery figurines, the variety of techniques and the exquisite coloring dazzled Fusu.

It's a pity that after the terracotta warriors and horses were unearthed, due to oxidation by oxygen, these colorful colors disappeared and turned into white ash in less than ten seconds, which is very regrettable.

These terracotta figurines stand or kneel, each with a different look, but combined in the army formation, they are so round and natural, harmonious and unified.

The army formation composed of these terracotta figurines and terracotta horses is majestic and majestic, which can't help but convince people. It reminds me of the invincible and invincible tiger and wolf division.

What Fusu has seen today is only the tip of the iceberg of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum, however, it has refreshed Fusu's cognition several times.
