In recent years, women's mate selection standards are increasing day by day, many women require boys to have a height of more than one meter and eight, in fact, even in today's China, the proportion of boys above one meter and eight in all boys is not much, most boys are still one meter seven, and one meter seven in ancient Japan can already be regarded as a small giant.
In 1571 AD, Japan gave birth to a warrior named Kuroda Kazunari, who grew to a height of six feet, that is, about 178cm, after becoming an adult. Translated into today," the common height of men, but at that time, when Japanese men were generally about one meter and six meters, he was a small giant.
Kuroda Kazunari's family was from a good family, his father's name was Katoshige Shigetoku, and he was a courtier of a shogun at the time, So his childhood food conditions were much better than some commoners, which may also be the reason why he was able to grow to 178cm. Growing up, Kuroda was adopted as a righteous son by another general, Kuroda Takataka, which is also the origin of his surname, and from then on, he began to follow his righteous father on the battlefield.
Because of his tall stature and relatively large stature, Kuroda Kazunari quickly made some achievements on the battlefield, especially in the Battle of Otogawa, Kuroda Kazunari also killed two enemies, and became famous for a while. Later, he won the Territory of Chikuzen by virtue of his military achievements, held a hereditary official position, and became one of the Twenty-Four Horses of Kuroda and the Eight Tigers of Kuroda, and was also a figure in Japan.
But what really makes Kuroda famous is not his battle exploits, but his strange personal habit, which is to wear a helmet to fight when he goes to war. As can be seen in the picture, this helmet is like a bull horn, the Vikings also like to wear it, but the horn will not be so long, more than Kuroda Ichisei's half body is even larger, worn on the head is very conspicuous, this shape in ancient China, most of them will be considered by some people to be cow spirits, it is estimated that it is possible to be beaten to death by random sticks.
Once, Kuroda Kazunari followed his brother-in-law Kuroda Nagamasa to participate in the Battle of Sekigahara, as mentioned earlier, Kuroda Kazunari was a small giant among the Japanese at that time, and he wore such a huge horn helmet, not to say that he had a feeling of standing out from the crowd, but also seemed out of place with other short Japanese. So the enemy noticed Kuroda At a glance, it is estimated that he was regarded as a monster, the enemy directly transferred the cannon to kuroda Ichisei's position and fired, fortunately, the number of cannons owned by the enemy at that time was not much, and the accuracy and lethality were also very poor, and a little farther away could not hit people, and because of this, Kuroda Ichisei did not do anything.
Not long remembered, he put on this helmet on the battlefield a few days later, the other party was indeed attracted to him again, continued to shell him, this time Kuroda Ichisei's luck was not so good, directly bombarded by the cannon to the ground, but did not hit the key by shrapnel, and was rescued after returning. There is an old Chinese saying called eating a trench, long a wisdom, obviously, Kuroda Ichisei did not understand this sentence, he still wore this helmet on the battlefield afterwards, attracting the hatred of countless enemy troops, but he also learned to be smart, he hid in the place where the cannon could not shoot, so in the end this strange Kuroda Ichisei actually lived to the age of 88, which is really amazing.
