Preface:
Since modern times, the Chinese nation has ushered in the darkest moment in history, with the feudal and decadent Qing Dynasty at home and the aggression and humiliation of Western powers outside, China gradually degenerated into a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, the country was in turmoil, the lives were ruined, the land was constantly ceded and reparations, and it was constantly being slaughtered by others, experiencing unprecedented suffering and humiliation.
However, the so-called miracles in troubled times, heroes in troubled times, every time there are major events related to survival, there will always be some strange people and strange things in China, supporting the building and turning the tide, which makes people sigh if the Chinese nation has divine help.
Here are a few strange events that have happened in modern times and seem to be destined.
Oracle bone discovery in the late Qing Dynasty:
As one of the four ancient civilizations, the reason why China is still active in the forest of the world today is inseparable from our unbroken Chinese civilization, because we have our own cultural roots and our own highly condensed spiritual national soul, so that we can achieve 5,000 years of majestic and long-lasting success.
In 1900, when the eight-nation coalition launched a war of aggression against China, the Qing government, which had been closed to the country for many years, was weak and incompetent, and had no capital to compete with it, so it could only be burned, killed and looted by "robbers".
Hoping to rely on such a small civilian force to resist the aircraft and artillery of the great powers in order to seek peace, people at this time were in despair, and did not want to work hard for the rotten and ridiculous Qing Dynasty, they believed that the Chinese nation would perish in this generation, and civilization would also die, and even many people began to wonder whether Chinese civilization really existed for so many years.
Just when the country was dying, the Guozi overseer Wine King Yirong discovered the oracle bones and collected more than a thousand pieces. However, by this time, the coalition forces had already invaded Beijing, and the situation was turbulent, so that he had no chance to study this precious cultural relic properly, and only preliminarily judged that the oracle bone was supposed to be used for the divination of the ancients.
Later, as the situation in the country deteriorated, Wang Yirong, who preferred to die, entrusted the oracle bones to his friend Liu Li and took his whole family to martyr the country with his body.
And Liu Li did not live up to the trust, and wrote the famous "Tieyun Hidden Turtle" ("Tieyun" as its font name, turtle refers to tortoiseshell script) to further determine that these oracle bones came from merchants' knives and pens. But after all, he had limited knowledge and did not really decipher the core of Oracle.
Moreover, the times were miserable, and Liu Li also repeated the misfortune of his friends, was sent to the frontier, and died with hatred.
After Liu Liu's death, the oracle bones passed into the hands of his in-laws, Luo Zhenyu, who learned that these tortoiseshell fragments should have been unearthed in a village in Anyang, Henan Province, by looking through ancient books and asking around, so he went to the field to mine and excavate, which can be said to be the first person in modern Chinese archaeology.
He also actively persuaded Wang Guowei to jointly study oracle bones, which is why oracle bone research was called "Luo Wang Zhixue" for a period of time.
However, although this person had no self-interest in the early days, he was short-sighted, and later blindly pursued the restoration of the Qing Dynasty, and became a loyal member of the puppet Manchukuo, so he had no intention of studying the oracle bone again.
Fortunately, Wang Guowei took over, he started from historical materials, carefully studied and deciphered, and under the combined effect of his proud literary talent and meticulous and rigorous academic attitude, the oracle bone script was finally combined with the history of the Shang Dynasty in the mainland, which strongly proved that the genealogy of the Shang Dynasty written in Sima Qian's "Shiji Yin Benji" was basically correct.
This made the disheartened people at that time realize that our ancient history is real, and the flame of our civilization has been faint but never extinguished at this time.
Yu Qiuyu once commented on Oracle: "It was a voice, the voice of civilized childhood. ”
Yes, at the most critical time of Chinese civilization, such a voice appeared, the oracle bones were silent but deafening, and what was even more amazing was that the Mogao Grottoes were also born one after another, they seemed to be in danger, especially after a thousand years of silence came out at this time, awakening the long-buried Chinese soul in the hearts of every Chinese, making people realize that standing up to resist foreign aggression is not for the Qing dynasty, but for the bloodline of the Chinese nation.
Even today, babbling children can recite a verse or two of the poems of the ancients thousands of years ago, what a kind of wonder and inheritance across time and space, only by knowing the way can we start a new journey, the power of culture is reflected in the silent place, we should believe, should remember, should be inherited.
Daqing oilfield survived:
In 1931, Japan launched the "918" incident, which shocked the world, the mainland fell into a place of irreparable disaster, and the three eastern provinces quickly fell.
Therefore, after they captured the northeast, they immediately began to explore for oil, not hesitating to use a lot of human and material resources, and the exploration and mining equipment used was relatively advanced at that time.
However, in the end, there was no oil harvest, it turned out that some Japanese experts at that time also learned from the United States, they believed that only under the marine accumulation geological structure will there be a large amount of oil, so the exploration focused on the southern Liaoning area near the sea, although there is indeed a Liaohe oil field, but 6,000 meters underground, so at that time, due to technical limitations, Japan could not succeed.
However, the immortal Japanese army did not stop there, so they also set their sights on the Daqing oil field in the middle of the Songnen Plain.
However, the "Manchurian Railway Authority" and many scholars agreed that the land area did not have the conditions to produce a large amount of oil and belonged to the "oil-poor" zone, so the Japanese did not bother to think about it here, only hit 1,000 meters and gave up exploration because there was no harvest, and decided that although China was large, it had no oil, so they turned their attention to Southeast Asia.
However, after the founding of China, the famous geologists Li Siguang and Huang Jiaqing of the mainland insisted that the geological situation of Daqing could absolutely excavate oil, until 1959, the "Daqing oilfield" finally lived up to expectations, oil has always been called "industrial blood", this discovery undoubtedly made the mainland lose the label of poor oil, but also laid the foundation for the mainland's rapid industrial development in the future, firmly grasped the autonomy of oil, no longer need to rely on imports.
It can be said that the discovery of the "Daqing Oilfield" is of epoch-making significance and shocked the world. At this time, Japan was even more annoyed and regretted, because the No. 1 well of the Daqing oilfield was near the well they drilled at that time, but we shot 300 meters more than Japan, that is, this short 300 meters, which completely changed the direction of the world.
It is really amazing that the Kwantung Army has not found this coveted resource in the northeast for so many years, and it is really surprising that it was discovered by ourselves as soon as New China was founded, but behind this seemingly metaphysical science is actually inseparable from the mortal resistance of the Anti-Japanese Alliance to the Japanese invaders.
"Five stars out of the East to benefit China":
In October 1995, members of the Nya site in Minfeng County, Hotan Prefecture, Xinjiang, stumbled upon a Han Dynasty brocade guard in an ancient tomb. The arm guard is rectangular in shape, and eight large characters are woven on the armguard: "Five stars out of the East to benefit China".
The discovery shocked both at home and abroad, hailed as one of the greatest discoveries in Chinese archaeology in the 20th century, and is now listed as a national first-class cultural relic and one of the first cultural relics banned from being exhibited abroad by the Chinese government.
Wonderfully, this five-star corresponds to the five-star national flag of New China, which is a celestial phenomenon observed by ancient astronomers
"Chronicle. The Book of Heavenly Palace has clouds: "Among the five stars divided into heavens, accumulated in the East, China is beneficial; Accumulated in the West, foreign users benefit. ”
The last five-star convergence happened to be in 1921, the year the Communist Party of China was officially founded.
This thousand-year-old cultural relic seems to have long foreshadowed that China will be able to survive the rest of its life and move towards rejuvenation, and its unearthing seems to tell people that the national fortune is prosperous and unstoppable! Now it is precisely these five-star red flags that lead the Chinese nation to the road of national rejuvenation.
Perhaps in the final analysis, this is just a coincidence, and we do not attribute the results of historical development to metaphysics, but it is not unreasonable to use this as a kind of motivation to work hard as a blessing and encouragement from Chinese ancestors to future generations.
Epilogue:
History forged by blood and war wars the Chinese people: backwardness means beating, but China is always well protected by their bravest people. The so-called "righteousness" has many helps, and the unrighteous have little help, it is precisely because our country has chosen to conform to the torrent of history and adhere to justice that it has received the help of heaven.
The seemingly miraculous national fortune is actually held up by thousands of martyrs, forged by their fierce loyalty, we can see that behind these miracles of heavenly blessing China, are all living people, the appearance of oracle bones Wang Yirong, Wang Guowei, the discovery of Daqing oilfield gave birth to the "iron man" Wang Jinxi.
When the national fortune is prosperous, only the heroic country and the heroic people can take it. The Chinese nation has overcome dangers and civilization has not perished because "five stars out of the East benefit China", but even more because hundreds of millions of Chinese sons and daughters "dare to call the sun and the moon for a new day for the sake of sacrificing a lot of ambition." "The spirit of struggle!
