We know that the State of Wu and the State of Yue fought to the death, and finally the Vietnamese army was defeated, not only the great beauty Xi Shi was given to Fu Cha, even the Yue King Gou Jian himself became the horseman of the Wu King Fu Cha, this time was 20 years, did not expect that finally the Yue King Gou Jian destroyed the Wu Kingdom, and finally became the overlord, the sword of the Yue King Gou Jian also became the king's sword, so where did this Yue Wang Gou Jian sword go after that?
Who can know that this Yue Wang Gou Jian sword was finally found in a large Chu tomb in Hubei, I believe that many netizens who understand the history of archaeology should know that this ancient tomb is Wangshan Bridge No. 1 Tomb, Wangshan Bridge Chu Tomb is located in Jingzhou District, Hubei Province, Chuandian Town, Wangshan Village, a gang land, more than 2,000 years ago, it can be said that the age is extremely long.
In fact, Wangshan Bridge Chu Tomb has always been our Chinese archaeologists have been valued, until after the founding of the People's Republic of China, that is, in 1965 when the initiative to investigate, after the archaeological experts found that there are actually 7 warring states period tombs here, but there are actually 6 traces of theft, helpless archaeologists began to report to the superiors, hoping to approve the immediate start of the Wangshan Bridge No. 1 tomb rescue excavation.
After more than 3 months of joint efforts by the archaeological team, it finally harvested a lot of good cultural relics, a total of more than 600 cultural relics were unearthed, including jade, bamboo, bronze, lacquered wood, dry goods, etc., including two very important national treasures, one is a lying deer, and the other is the antlers of the town tomb beast.
In fact, this Wangshan Bridge No. 1 tomb has also been stolen in history, but it is estimated that the technical means of the previous batch of tomb robbers are not very clever, so there are still a large number of treasures left in the ancient tomb. Of course, among the cultural relics excavated from Tomb No. 1 of Wangshan Bridge, the most surprising thing for archaeologists is a bronze sword, that is, the Yue Wang Gou Jian sword we mentioned above.
