Xiang Yu, the first fierce general of ancient and modern times, created the Battle of Julu and the Battle of Pengcheng, two classic battles in which less won more. Among them, the Battle of Julu Xiang Yu led 50,000 Chu troops to defeat Zhang Handan's 400,000 Qin army, and the Battle of Pengcheng defeated Liu Bang's 560,000 Han army with 30,000 Chu troops and annihilated 200,000, which is a battlefield myth. In addition to his military talents, Xiang Yu's personal strength value is second to none in Chinese history, and he also created the first record of "one hundred people beheading" in Chinese history, all of which show Xiang Yu's bravery. As the saying goes: a good horse is a good saddle. Such a fierce general, naturally there will be a weapon at hand to be worthy of his bravery. Because of Xiang Yu's innate divine power, his uncle Xiang Liang knew that using a sword was not suitable for him, so he specially created a overlord gun for him that would become famous in Xiang Yu's hands in the future.
According to historical records, the Overlord Gun is three feet seven inches long and weighs 81 pounds, and anyone who is pointed or swept by this gun will die. And Xiang Yu can create a record of hundreds of people for many times, inseparable from the help of this gun. So the question is, not to mention the length of this gun, just the weight of this 81 pounds, the average person can't lift it with both hands, let alone pick it up and wave it? Coupled with the length of nearly one and a half inches, the middle of the grip is 81 pounds, but if you grasp the edge of the head and raise the gun flat, according to the principle of leverage, this is more than 81 pounds, at least more than 100 pounds. So with the current point of view, is this possible? In fact, before exploring this problem, it is necessary to convert the unit of measurement first, because the historical records use the unit of measurement at that time, and if it is converted to the current unit of measurement, it will be more intuitive.
According to the actual measurement of the excavated Qin measuring instrument, the 1 kilogram at that time was converted into today's weight unit of 250 grams, and one foot was 23.2 centimeters. With this standard, it can be basically judged that the weight of the Overlord gun is 20.25 kg, 40.5 kg, and the length is about 3.18 meters. Even so, it is still a fairly heavy weapon. Historical records record that Xiang Yu's height is eight feet and two inches, which translates to 1.9 meters. We can see in the portraits of some ancient generals that the body shape of the generals is a large waist and a round tiger's back and a bear waist, rather than the model figure with eight-pack abs and a wide shoulder and thin waist that we imagine. From a physiological point of view, fat can store more calories, providing energy for long-term fighting, which is the so-called body strength does not lose. If you don't have enough physical strength, you will be killed until the end of the battle.
Then the image of Xiang Yu came out, a strong man of one meter and nine meters, even a giant man, riding a tall horse, wielding a large gun weighing more than 40 pounds at a length of 3 meters. But even so, it still seems unlikely. Because it is not difficult to lift a long gun of 40 pounds, but it is not easy to wield it for a few minutes, not to mention the continuous battles that take place for a day and a night or even a few days and nights when fighting, who can eat it? In fact, at this point, we are still not comprehensive enough. Because before watching the marathon, I didn't believe that people can run at a certain speed for several hours in a row and run 42 kilometers. Before seeing Bolt's race, I didn't believe that humans could explode at speeds of more than 10 meters per second. Because I haven't seen it, I don't think it exists, and such an idea is quite narrow.
Not long ago, O'Neill's video of drinking mineral water was hotly discussed, because a pound of mineral water bottles held in his hand was like holding oral liquid, and such a contrast made people really realize how "big" the tall men seen in the basketball game on the screen were in reality. If it were 2.16 meters tall O'Neill wielding a 40-pound and 3-meter-long gun, it would not be difficult to understand. In the historical records, there are also people who are taller than O'Neill. The Qin Terracotta Warriors made according to the ratio of 1 to 1 of real people can prove that the ordinary soldiers of the Qin Army at that time were more than 1.75 meters tall, and the generals were more than 1.85 meters, which was related to the oxygen concentration in the air at that time. Therefore, as the first fierce general in ancient and modern times, Xiang Yu had a physical quality that far exceeded O'Neill's in that era, which made perfect sense.
