Chapter 445: Three Kingdoms Famous Generals

Just when Chen Jing was fascinated by the sudden appearance of new clues about the Chixiao Sword.

Professor Chen lowered his head slightly, carefully observed the high-end armor in the coffin, and then said: "Use armor to make a tomb. It seems that the tomb owner should have thought that he was a general in front of him, and he was granted the title of Marquis for his military merits."

After hearing this, Chen Jing came to his senses and said, "Master, this is not easy to be a marquis for his military achievements, unless it is during the war or the Eastern Han Dynasty."

Professor Chen nodded slightly and replied: "This tomb owner should have been granted the title of marquis through military merits during the war. Xiao Jing, you have just seen that the period of this ancient tomb was from the late Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms."

Chen Jing said: "Master, do you mean that the owner of this ancient tomb is most likely a general from the Three Kingdoms period?"

"It should be true. The late Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period was an era when the generals were extremely brilliant in our Chinese history. Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Cao Ren, Lu Xun, Lu Meng and other famous generals are well-known to the general public. At that time, many famous generals from ordinary backgrounds were able to be granted titles to marquis and glorify their ancestors."

After a brief pause, Professor Chen added: "After all, with the establishment of the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, those famous generals can be said to be founding heroes. The heroes of this founding period are always easier to be named marquis than in the peaceful and prosperous era."

When Chen Jing heard this, he subconsciously looked at the armor in the coffin again. In a trance, he seemed to see the scene of the tomb owner wearing armor, invincible on the battlefield and bravely fighting the enemy.

After fighting and fighting, he made contributions to his life and was appreciated by the lord, and was finally granted the title of Marquis Yinzi and Guangzong to the ancestors.

"This is in Sichuan and Chongqing. If the owner of the tomb was a famous general from the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, then he would probably be a famous general from Shu Han. I just don't know which one he was." At this time, Lin Qiang also said with some surprise in his eyes.

This ancient tomb of a more famous figure in history is often of great value for excavation.

Not to mention that this is the tomb of a famous general during the Three Kingdoms period. Even if it is just a tomb, it will probably attract a lot of attention by then.

After all, because of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", most ordinary people are familiar with the characters from the Three Kingdoms period. When I find a passerby on the street and ask him to talk about the celebrities from the Three Kingdoms period, I can still tell a few of them.

Professor Chen nodded slightly when he heard this, as if he had agreed with Lin Qiang's people, and then said: "If he was really a famous general in the Three Kingdoms period, then why was his tomb in this Daqing Mountain? It would be even more strange."

Kushan is now considered poor, not to mention the Three Kingdoms period nearly two thousand years ago. Kushan at that time was probably an unexplored barbarian land in the ancients.

Why should a general who can be a marquis choose his tomb in such a place?

"Professor, I'm wondering if there is such a possibility." At this time, Jiang Kun seemed to think of something and suddenly spoke.

"Oh? Let's hear it?"

Chen Jing also looked at Jiang Kun curiously after hearing this. After all, he is also a professional archaeologist, so the opinions he can think of must be based on some basis.

"First of all, this is a tomb, and there is no corpse of the tomb owner in it. It is very likely that his corpse cannot be found, or he cannot be buried in this tomb."

"Secondly, Professor, you just said that the main tomb chamber has not been completed, which means that even the download of this pair of armor was extremely hasty. I guess the death of the tomb owner should be more sudden."

"Sudden death, for a general, was either a battle death or a sudden death from illness. However, in both cases, the owner of the tomb should be buried with a grand funeral, and his tomb could not be in Daqingshan."

As he said that, Jiang Kun suddenly paused slightly, looked at the armor in the coffin and said, "So I was thinking that choosing the tomb in Daqingshan might be the decision of the tomb owner himself. The purpose is to hide his tomb, to get peace after death, or to be unwilling to be found by his enemies."

"And if you make such a preparation that you are afraid of peace after death, the tomb owner is likely not to die on the battlefield or die suddenly when you are sick, but another cause of death with a very high possibility..."

As he said this, Chen Jing immediately guessed something in his heart.

"The tomb owner may die and fight politically, and only political enemies can make him unable to remain peaceful after his death." Jiang Kun expressed his final guess.

This is also what Chen Jing guessed from his words.

In this world, all struggles are not as terrible or terrifying as political struggles, and the means of treating political enemies are also extremely cruel.

Based on the situation of this ancient tomb, the guess Jiang Kun said is indeed very likely.

The owner of the tomb died in a political struggle. His descendants or loyal subordinates could not get his bones. They could only bring the armor of countless honors in front of him to the Daqingshan ancient tomb for burial and erected this tomb.

This is actually not surprising. Since ancient times, there are not many famous officials and generals who have died in political struggles, especially the latter generals, because there are only a handful of generals with high political wisdom and awareness in history. Most generals only know how to fight and know nothing about politics.

"There is indeed a possibility, but if the tomb owner died in a political struggle, then he should be in the late stage of the Three Kingdoms." Professor Chen thought for a moment and spoke.

"If the tomb owner was really a famous general in Shu Han, then his death must have been after Liu Bei's death, because as long as Liu Bei was still alive, the political struggle in Shu Han would not be so serious that a general who was granted a marquis's military merits would die."

The internal struggle in the late Shu Han Dynasty was actually quite serious. If it were not serious, Zhuge Liang would not have made many Northern Expeditions and used wars to forcibly suppress internal struggles.

"There are not many famous generals who died in political struggle in the late Three Kingdoms period, but there are also many." Lin Qiang also spoke with thoughtfulness in his eyes.

"First see if there are any clues about the identity of the tomb owner in these burial objects." Professor Chen finally made a decision.

Then, everyone began to carefully take out the four burial objects of the coffin and put them in a professional protective box. However, the top-level armor was a little troublesome because the overall weight was very heavy.

This purely cast iron armor is really not a joke, it probably looks like more than 20 kilograms overall.

The only good news is that the armor doesn't look like it's damaged, so don't worry about breaking it with a little force.
