Who was the mother of Han Xin, a general in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and how did she die? Where it is buried now.
In 29 BC, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang couldn't bear it any longer, and led a crowd to rise up and overthrow Qiang Qin. Han Xin, a native of Huaiyin, Jiangsu Province, joined the army in an uprising. At first, he followed Xiang Liang and then Xiang Yu, but he was never reused. He angrily escaped from Chu camp and went to Hanwang and Liu Bang. Liu bang didn't take him seriously at first, and this guy wanted to leave again. Xiao He, the Prime Minister, had a good eye for pearls. When he heard the news, he immediately rode a horse and chased it on a moonlit night, leaving a famous saying "Xiao He chased Han Xin under the moon". Later, under Xiao He's repeated persuasion, Liu Bang personally discussed military affairs with Han Xin and finally made him a general. In the center of Hanzhong, Shaanxi, there are still relics of the worship platform at that time.
Han Xin really made great achievements in the war, and eventually he became the leader of the Chu-Han War. His tactics of using troops were highly praised by later military strategists. Hanshu? Han Xin once wrote three chapters of Han Xin's Art of War, but it has been lost. Han Xinyue grew bigger and bigger, and Liu Bang was extremely unhappy. Therefore, after defeating Xiang Yu, he seized his military power and placed him under house arrest. One day, Liu Bang asked Han Xin, "How many soldiers do you think I can take?" Han Xin replied, "Your Majesty can only lead an army of 1,." Liu Bang asked again, "So, what about you?" Han Xin replied: "I am the more the better!" It will eventually kill you.
According to historical records, Han Xin was buried in Longwang Village, Baqiao District, Xi 'an, and the cemetery still exists. It is inconceivable that there is a well-preserved "Han Xin's Mother's Tomb" in Yunxian County, Hubei Province, thousands of miles away from Hanzhong, where Hanwang laid the foundation.
This small island is called Hanjiazhou, and most residents are surnamed Han. At present, there are more than 8 households with more than 3 people on the island. The legendary Han Xin's mother's tomb, located at the highest place at the western end of the island, still retains a complete large earthen bag. How did Han Xin bury his mother here? There are several versions of local people's legends. To sum up, there are two geomantic gentlemen who pass by here and take a fancy to a treasure trove of geomantic omen, saying that whoever is buried in this place in the future, the children and grandchildren will definitely be great officials. Han Xin somehow heard this small talk, so he kept this place in mind and soon buried his mother in this place. Some people say it was buried alive, while others say it was buried with a lock of hair. Since then, it has been called Hanjiazhou.
As for Han Xin's mother, his hometown, Wharf Town, Huaiyin, Jiangsu, now has only a "floating mother's tomb". Before the tomb, the local county magistrate also set up a stone tablet during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, clearly stipulating that cultural relics should be protected and no soil should be taken. According to local legend, Han Xin's parents died before the "cross-over humiliation", and she was often helped by an old woman who made a living by rinsing silk and cotton before she could grow up. After Han Xin became a general, he did not forget the kindness of his drifting mother. According to people in Wharf Town, the tomb of the floating mother was originally very small. Han Xin ordered his men to grab a handful of mounds from other places and put them on the tomb of the floating mother. Others said that everyone used clothes to take a pocket of soil and piled the tomb of the floating mother into a hill dozens of meters high. The local people also said that the soil of the tomb of the floating mother is different from the soil of the surrounding farmland, and the grass growing on the tomb of the floating mother is also different from the grass in the nearby farmland. Many of them can be used as Chinese medicine, so they often use the grass on the tomb of the floating mother as medicine.
So, what happened to Han Xin's biological parents and where they were buried seems to be a real mystery.
It's said that Gu listened to it in error. Now, on Hanjiazhou, there really is a big grave bag similar to the tomb. What is in it? Is it Han Xin's tomb? It's incredible. It has not been excavated now, and it is not certain. If not, what is it? Will it have nothing to do with Han Xin at all, but with those ancient countries that have disappeared? Or is it just a part of an ancient castle or an ancient battlefield? These, no one knows now.
In any case, it is a miracle that this big mound can be preserved so well after thousands of years of history.
What interests people is that there are too many cultural relics in Hanjiazhou. There are relics of ancient castles and numerous ancient tombs, and it is indeed an ancient battlefield. Villagers can often pick up various ancient weapons such as bronze arrows and various cultural relics. The year before last, the museum also collected a set of six precious bronze sacrificial vessels of the Western Han Dynasty, which were beautifully made and reflected high casting skills. Experts say that this is of great historical value to the study of folk customs and economic development in Qin and Han Dynasties.
Hanjiazhou is an eye-catching place on the Han River, where the first-class tributary blocks the river and flows into the Han River. Hanjiazhou is an island in the middle of the river in the wet season, and one side can go ashore in the dry season. The highest point of the island is 23 meters above sea level. After the Danjiangkou dam is raised, the island will be partially submerged. Looking around from the isolated island of Hanjiazhou, the island divides the water in the Han River into two parts: north and south. The villagers said that in normal times, the blocked river flows eastward with the river after it is injected into the Han River from south to north. However, when the river in the upper reaches of Jianghan is small and the blocked river is large, after the blocked river is injected into the Han River, the river in the south of Hanjiazhou will change its flow direction, flowing back from east to west, and then flowing eastward with the river in the north of Hanjiazhou. It is also a spectacle.
I don't know how he died, but Han Xin definitely didn't bury him alive!
