4, Tempo 6 years (747 years) in March, under the Emperor system, the vice Anxi Protectorate, are known Bingma Shi, Jie Du Fu Shi four towns charge for the line of business Jiedushi CHANGJI, led his army people , Little Bo valid crusade. When anything is ready, then led his crews from Anxi, all the direction west, by 15 to call for the city (immediately Xinjiang Aksu), yet also by Shi Yuri grasp Sede (now Xinjiang Bachu), then by Shi Yuri sparse Le (immediately Xinjiang Kashgar), then led his army south, foot Congling began extraordinarily tough march.

Tang Jun, not only to march through the East Pamir route, but also through the elevation of 7564 m Qingling (Muztagata Hill), one tin assume its laborious. Bing Jie Tang Junshi private nag was hand in hand, logistics within the prescribed time can be certified; with Tang Jun, prefer from the wide smooth valleys march, the march of this difficulty to a minimum. After two hard marching Shi Yuri, Tang Jun, reached Congling keep arresting (today Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County of Xinjiang). Then west anew along the Hindu Kush mountains north west basket, and broadcast by the dense water to approach two Shi Yuri (now near the Afghan W Han).

Third, from a historical analysis of the Tang knife
street knife: From the above four wars can be looked in the street Don knife army knife is as major war substance and equipment, and apparatuses in the mid-Tang as a military, private manufacturing and non civil personalty, the heritage ought be the sword Han (Chinese: one kind of sword called a Tang's development into a longer handle with either hands and held a two-edged knife, has not been unearthed in archaeological objects, Song, Tang street knife straight heiress. bbs.findart.com.cn
street army knife is chiefly used for the step, the individual main street knife used as a general battle weapons. According to Don, When the fighting started, the enemy in a hundred fifty paces when Crossbowmen began shooting; the enemy when the 60-step, beginning archers archery; enemy scored twenty paces, when, after Gong Nushou arrows to wield the stick ( that is unfamiliar knife, stick) together with the war front into the Endeavor crew, infantry, after a little lost, Jones, Ma, Tiaodang not granted to act rashly, whether the infantry fighting did not go well, Tiaodang, Jones, Ma Teng is salute before the attack , infantry prepared to assistance back after consolidation, whether Tiaodang, Jones, Ma negative attack, all the steps the military have to fight with Ma in the meantime. The enemy to withdraw, not easy to chase Ma, the real enemy, vanquish must be accustomed only after a startle attack. Tang Jun, Ma-step combination of crime and ward with the post of infantry as the vanguard for the side of the assistant cavalry, infantry together with the crossbow, street knives, cavalry charge infantry assault and chase after the war. Such as long-handled knives knife street walls is generally promoted as a pioneer infantry rushed the main weapons array, and Ma, Don Jones fight together constitute the main features. Emperor from the history books to see the war is very personal characteristics, the favorite choice weak parts of enemy positions, individually led a cavalry charge, Jiaoren magnetic. The large number of cavalry during the Tang Dynasty is an important guarantee for the victory of war, while the mid-step army knife, such as wall street strategy to subserve and establish a glorious Tang Dynasty history of war, but also created a street knife myth. From Morality to Tempo, Don and good in the founding of war and nomads riding and shooting to obtain the war, infantry offensive weapons can not mention street knife use one of the main form. The emergence of street and subserve the use of knives is not an insulated phenomenon, it relates to Don and the entire political military situation, it can be said, street knife use to promote the history of Tang Liguo and external wars, open days, one facet of the history of martial arts . Although Tang knife into four, the real role on the battlefield weapons only street knife. bbs.findart.com.cn
street war army knife in whichever wars in the query are played a decisive role in street knife fight series in the military as a detach fighting compel in the mid-Tang Jun Tang made important contributions toward the war, street knife is Han Chinese nomadic tribe with agreeable riding and shooting to change his war horse is not nice small drawback, many avails to activity a key infantry weapons, weapons of war as the war is really the evolution of forms of development and evolution, with the citizen prosperity and decline and change. With the Song Dynasty unified the Central Plains, China began a fashionable round of cold weapons development, a large number of current spear, knife, ax ax, and the birth of God arm crossbow armed Song, brave street knife become a luxury of war equipment, Song is also the cardinal intention of the war in northern nomads, Liao and Jin to handle with the cavalry, spear, the sway of the military became a major weapon,
Nike Shox Monster, the sway of a large number of equipment from the production and use of simpler techniques than the unfamiliar knife, equally forcible against cavalry, Yue Jiajun with important weapons, luxury street knife gradually withdraw from the war scene, and the vanish of an exceedingly thorough, is China the cold steel of regret. bbs.findart.com.cn
instrument knife: The knife instrument more in important ceremonial causes, Prince Esther Tang tomb, the tomb of Princess Changle murals can be seen in many of the guards with a long knife, long knife to ring hand, there are clear diamond-shaped knife stop , scabbard on the apparent twice rings hanging in the waist, or both hands at the top, or standing in front, as the imperial army knife appliance and bodyguard of an important weapon, a long knife, shape the , inherited the Han style knife hand ring, decorated with envoy's contacts with the countries sword, the stream of the Quartet, by instrument knife profound clash two countries and a nation: Korea, Japan, Tibet. From the archaeological point of view now, Korea and Japan have unearthed ring hand knives, these rings are hand-knife cutter ring with dragon and phoenix as a major art show, a lot of inlaid gold and silver, these rings are hand-knife cutter instrument heritage, and Tibetan knife Tong retained the shape of features. The Central Plains as the dynasties, the ravages of war, Tong knife faded and annihilation. bbs.findart.com.cn
instrument knife in the process of evolution in the east, Korea and Japan in the initial stage of copying the shape prototype, in 1965 the Samaritans Samarkand Uzbekistan murals in the mars of the messenger of the body with a ring hand Korea machetes, knives Zhaoling mural neatness and Shitennoji the
Tin Tang Zhuang long knife sword, the more and and to restore the murals we look at the real face of the Tang Dynasty instrument knife: bbs.findart.com.cn
1, knife ring: the first instrument is a knife mark important ring, ring in the main Dragon as the main elaboration, Dragon and the whole body of gold-filled ring, dragon ring is soldered or riveted connections form and cutter body This production is very clever, aesthetic knife ring craftsmanship, beautifully decorated and is manipulated by a unattached craftsman, blade forging is a devoted craftsman forging forging, so that the two processes to assure that the whole knife blade forged of exquisite and sophisticated the effective integration of such technology in the Han Dynasty ring knife in hand, there might, institution and orderly seen in general.
2, handle: multi-slice spiral metalline or decorative gold and silver, dug from a Tang Xian ring this year, knife in hand and Japan, the Tokyo National Museum of the dug part of the hand tool of view, the production is very close to the handle, a coincidence is that the sword blade has a wrong Liangbing gold or silver inscriptions wrong. bbs.findart.com.cn
3, blade: Don is a straight knife blade knife, no curvature, knife ridges, there are two one is flat, will be mounted above the txt, a Japanese sword is now called the There knife blade ridge, this ridge of high knife also has a kind of ancient knives. Blade thickness of the thickest part near the handle, and even down to the tip.
4,
Nike Shox TL1, tip: tip, there are two one is the Japanese call it arbitrage tip and blade composition of natural, ancient knives strictly follow the shape and retained.
5, knife block: paintings and carve from the point of view, the early instrument knife no knife document. Knife file seen in the mid-Tang Dynasty, some frescoes and statues found Tong vaguely knife blade is diamond-shaped profile, is relatively small, this knife-like profile in Japan, Tang sword can see the. bbs.findart.com.cn
6, sheath: sheath mouth and tail are beginning to use the metal sheath coated and gilded silver. Early instrument knife and no rings, worn or Xiecha estimated to carry on the belt, since the mid-sheath hanging ring complex process, with very decorative, positions the hospital is
Tin Tang Zhuang long knives
7, forging: forging a knife should Don Han Dynasty inherited the invention of the
Japanese sword, notwithstanding Tong knife heritage, but as the war in Japan, temper, attitude and forging great changes have taken place, after a period of peace war, Cutler began to study more good forging technology, the Japanese lack of regional resources, iron mineral and high-temperature oil is not enough, the extravaganza of the steel is finite in order to resolve sharp blade to maintain a good hardness,
Nike Shox R3, and has a very sharp extravaganza, but also to maintain proper blade flexibility, the Japanese began to use a sandwich knife type of forging technology, due to the different nature of the material used in the quenching of the internal tension generated when the metal is different from the blade began to change the arc, the gradual separation from the Japanese sword blade of Tang China, Japan developed into a typical feature of cold weapons. bbs.findart.com.cn
the same as the displacement of Don's knives knife, for there are no major wars and internal wars, swords basically stopped the evolution and progress, so keep a rigid opinion Tang knife, cold steel of our research now provides a living fossil samples.
barrier knife and thief: From the historical point of view is logged in the saber guards and ordinary soldiers, and Don Changle Princess, Prince Zhang Huai's mausoleum murals and Zhaolingliujun Hengdao acyclic hand, shorter than the instrument knife, the knob is the deal of the first set in a metal tube-shaped handle, the handle middle of the waist, a drawstring holes, absence of physical information and careful murals, can not accurately translate Hengdao the shape, but the Japanese unearthed Tang Gui hand straight knife is spread to Japan, the shape is very close to the thief's. The only way to know is Hengdao wear scope, is a large digit of making and manufacturing of weapons, hand cord moved from the instrument handle the middle of the ring knife, knife to obtain rid of after the process to prevent such a process has been spread to the afterward clear, this saber in the future evolution of Army soldiers and ordinary people become the portable self-defense weapons. bbs.findart.com.cn
from existing archaeological message and murals, as well as a few words from the history books, we strive to restore the shape and development of Tang knife, cold iron and understand the culture of the Tang period fascination, Tang knife cold steel as the development of a Chinese peak is not only accompanied the establishment of the Tang Empire, prosperity, and glory the delights and sorrows, but also affect the success of the entire culture of the cold steel in Asia, with the changes in the form of war, Tang knives and knife in the instrument after the thief to chance the sword, knife instrument spread east to Korea and Japan, and evolved into the nation's cold weapons, knives transform the ancestors of the southwest, after street knife in the evolution of a anthem off the knife, which changes to several long knives out for future generations are scatter, Tang knife witnessed the birth and development of China's most powerful empire in history, culture, Tang cold steel knife is the most gifted, just reminisce that part of this article has great history. bbs.findart.com.cn
