The forces I created in my dreams appeared in reality

Soon, the camera in the live broadcast room convinced you to Professor Yuan.

"Friends in the live broadcast room, thank you very much for being able to watch this archaeological live broadcast! Next, I will explain to you the information I got from this soldier's bones!".

"First of all, let's take a look at the armor on this soldier's body, although it has been almost corroded by the soil, we can see the material of this armor!"

"This is a pair of armor, in ancient times, in addition to the armor of the army is named after the material, it will also be divided according to the position in the army. "

"The so-called soldier armor is the armor worn on the body of ordinary soldiers, and the other is worn on the body of military officers with a certain status, which is called professional officer armor. "

"That's the difference between the two!"

As he spoke, Professor Yuan pointed to the arm of the soldier's bones.

"The obvious difference between the two is whether there are sleeves or not, and the official armor will also distinguish the level of the position through the shape and pattern on the armor!".

"Look at the iron leaves of this armor, these filamentous fibers are our common cotton, so this armor is called cotton armor in terms of manufacturing material!"

"The history of cotton armor can be traced back to the Mongol and Yuan periods, when the Mongol army was equipped with a large number of cotton armor. "

"But this and the soldier does not belong to the Mongolian army, everyone looks at the way he wears, this is a typical placket style, and all the army armor of the Mongolian army is a pullover!"

"Historically, in addition to the use of cotton armor by the Mongol army, the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty!".

"Cotton armor was also famous in the Ming and Qing dynasties, mainly related to the weapons at that time. "

"Because of the emergence of firearms, the traditional armor such as armor in the Dragon Kingdom can no longer resist firearms, but the composite armor of cotton armor has a good performance in defending against primary firearms. "

"If you look closely, there are still some iron wires left in this set of armor, which is the dark armor that belongs to the cotton armor!".

"After cotton armor was widely spread in the Ming Dynasty, it was gradually transformed into two forms. "

"One of them is the Ming armor, which is directly sewn onto the lined cotton jacket with iron pieces or barbed wire. "

"The other is the dark armor we see now, which is a piece of iron or barbed wire fixed with copper rivets on the inside of a cotton garment. "

"The armor of the higher official ranks was also supplemented with defensive materials such as leather, so that the cotton armor became a composite set of armor, with cotton leather to cushion the impact of musket projectiles, and metal to resist swords and swords. "

"And the appearance of dark armor was in the late Ming Dynasty, and it was not until the opium war formation of the Qing Dynasty found that the cotton armor could not block bullets and increased the burden, so it was abandoned, which means that this soldier should be from the late Ming Dynasty or the early Qing Dynasty!"

Professor Yuan said, peeling aside the inside of the armor and studying it carefully.

Suddenly, something fell from the middle of the armor, and she added it up, and the cameraman also brought the camera close to Professor Yuan's hand, filling the show with full effect!

It was a rusty rivet, buried in the ground for a long time, so corroded that it could only be abstracted.

"Now I think I know what period this soldier is!"

"At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the design of the Ming Dynasty cotton armor was directly used, and in the early Qing Dynasty, it was only added to the Ming Dynasty cotton armor."

However, for the Ming army, the inventory paid more attention to the use of cold weapons, so the iron sheet in the cotton armor was thickened to form a heavy cotton armor. "

"Look at the thickness of the iron sheet in this armor, the thickness of the iron sheet in the cotton armor of the Ming Dynasty is known to be about four millimeters, but although the iron sheet in this armor is corroded, according to my calculations, the thickness of this armor before it is corroded is about six millimeters, which is exactly the cotton armor used by the Qing army in the early Qing Dynasty!".

"Combined with the architectural style of the ancient village in the underground space, I deduce that this underground space sank into the ground in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties!"

Professor Yuan said with some disappointment.

For the history of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, she couldn't be clearer, and it can also be said that because the late Ming and early Qing dynasties were relatively recent to modern times, the historical materials were complete.

Professor Yuan thinks it is almost impossible to find unrecorded history in this underground space!

"But fortunately, at least through this live broadcast, people's interest in archaeology has been aroused, at least there should be more students in the archaeology department in the future!".

Professor Yuan secretly comforted himself in his heart.

"Professor Yuan, are you digging up all the bones of the soldiers underground?"

This is, an archaeologist asked.

Professor Yuan nodded.

"Since the bones of soldiers from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties have been found here, then we archaeologists need to find out why they came back to this remote village!"

Professor Yuan said: "This location was a deserted village far from the big cities in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and it stands to reason that there should not be so many Qing troops here!".

The other archaeologists nodded and began to dig up the bones in earnest, trying to clear all the bones of the soldiers in this area in a short time.

"It's a pity, because it's not to explore the ancient tomb, so I didn't bring the detector over, otherwise we could have accurately located the bones of the soldiers underground!"

Song Zhipeng said with a sigh, and then explained to the netizens in the live broadcast room what the detector was and what it does.

The so-called detector is able to detect something at a depth of more than ten meters underground, and the archaeological team mainly uses words to detect cultural relics buried deep in the ground, in order to ensure the integrity of cultural relics as much as possible during excavation

"Xiao Song, Su Yao, don't be idle, come over and take a hand, just have a time to study!".

This is, Professor Yuan said to Song Zhipeng and Su Yao.

Both of them were his students, and they were the perfect opportunity to put them into practice.

As for the live broadcast, you just need to ask the photographer to point the camera at them and rebroadcast the footage of them digging up the bones of the Qing army!

"Ahh

To be honest, Song Zhipeng never thought that he would personally go down to the site to carry out archaeological excavations, and he didn't want to do so.

The reason why I studied archaeology is mainly because my family is in the antique business, and I can take over the family's business by learning this.

As for Su Yao, she didn't want to end up in person.

She is a blood archaeology, mainly because the department with the lowest admission score at Beijing University is the Department of Archaeology.

She just wants to enter this highest institution of learning in the Dragon Country, and then meet some people, and it would be the best to be able to find a golden beetle son-in-law and become a rich wife!
