7. Qin Great Wall Site

Introduction

In Baotou, in addition to the Zhao Great Wall built by King Wuling of Zhao in the earlier period, There is also a relatively complete section of the Qin Great Wall. In 215 BC, Qin Shihuang sent General Meng Tian to lead an army of 300,000 to attack the Xiongnu in the north and take Henan. In order to prevent the invasion of northern nomads, he built a fort from Linsanbei (today's Shanni County, Gansu) in the west to Liaodong County (today's Shanni County, Gansu) in the east. The Great Wall of China (Liaoning Province) extends from Ningxia into Inner Mongolia, east from Langshan, passing through Xidoupu, Yinhao, and Damiao Township in the north of Guyang County, Baotou City, into Wuchuan County, passing through the eastern part of Daqingshan, and extending to Hebei. The Qin Great Wall started in Min County, and there are a large number of relics and ruins to prove it. First, there is a large amount of Qin currency in Min County. In 1947 AD, a Qin Dynasty kiln was discovered in Zhongbao Village, Min County, and tens of thousands of Qin half-liang copper coins were unearthed; secondly, there are widely distributed remains of Qin tiles. A large number of Qin tiles are spread over a wide area. It is not uncommon to see Longwang Tower and Baita Temple in the east of the city and Bandagou in Minshan Township in the north of the city. In the city of Minxian County, there are many more Qin tiles in the Yejiaya cultural deposits (in today's Minxian Hospital). Thirdly, there are a large number of artificial ditches left in the mountainous area in the northern part of Minxian County. Zhuoping trench is located on the northwest side of Zhuoping, about 40 kilometers away from the county seat. The moat consists of two parts. One extends downward along the southwest side of the ridge, passing through the secondary platform and reaching the Taohe beach. It is about 4 kilometers long. The local people call it the ancient city moat. The other one is located at the front edge of the foot of the mountain, connected with the ancient city moat by the creek, and extends northwest to the south of Maliantan Village. It is about 1.5 kilometers long and is called Hudao by the local people. The trenches in the ancient city are 5-11 meters wide and mostly more than 5 meters deep. The bottom of the trenches were reclaimed by villagers and turned into farmland. Local villagers say that the ancient city moat has existed since ancient times. From the tiles we collected, we infer that this is the site of the Qin people. The starting point of the Qin Great Wall is Tieguanmen in Shili Township, and the trenches in the Zhuoping area are strong evidence. The ruins of the Great Wall are in Minxian County, and the starting point is also in Minxian County. There is no doubt that it is.
