On the Koguryo Great Wall

However, there is a lack of specific records about where and how the Great Wall was formed. Therefore, up to now, researchers have different opinions and even denied its existence, and there is no conclusion yet. According to archaeological discoveries and literature records, the author believes that the Koguryo Great Wall is located in Liaoning and Jilin provinces and was indeed built. The starting point of the Great Wall, the so-called "First Fuyu City in Northeast China", is neither Fuyu City in Fuyu country nor Fuyu City in Koguryo, but it starts from the extinct Fuyu country, starting from the south bank of the second Songhua River in Laobian Gangtun, Dehui County, Jilin Province, and reaching Hougangzitun, Yingkou City, Liaoning Province. The middle section of Koguryo Great Wall was later used by the Great Wall of Liaodong Town, Wan Li in Ming Dynasty, but no record of its use was left. Therefore, the world only knows that this place is the Ming Great Wall, thus covering up the existence of the Koguryo Great Wall.

Building the Great Wall, as a cultural phenomenon, is the characteristic of the Chinese nation. No country in the world built the Great Wall on a large scale like China did in ancient times. It took more than two thousand years to build the Great Wall from the vassal states in the Spring and Autumn Period to the unified central dynasty and many local ethnic regimes, and not only the Han people built the Great Wall, but also many ethnic minorities built it. So far, the Great Wall has spread all over the country, with many roads, and its total length is no less than ten Yu Wanli. No country in the world can match this situation.

As a member of the ancient Chinese nation, Koguryo nationality rose in the northeast of China, namely Xinbin and Huanren in the east of Liaoning Province today. Later, under the influence of the advanced culture of the Han nationality, it continued to grow and develop, and established local ethnic regimes in the counties and counties of the Han Dynasty, and surrendered to the Central Plains dynasty for a long time. Koguryo regime, like other ethnic groups in China's history, inherited traditional culture and built the Great Wall on a large scale in China. However, the previous research on Koguryo Great Wall was not enough, and it is still unclear and there are many problems. So it should be discussed further. This paper only talks about some immature views on the most basic problems in the research.

Historical Records of Goguryeo's Construction of the Great Wall

Koguryo's construction of the Great Wall has a clear history, and it has consumed a lot of manpower and financial resources. It took 16 years to build a great wall thousands of miles long. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to call it a large-scale construction of the Great Wall. In the history of our country, the Great Wall was built in the Tang Dynasty.

In the second year of Zhenguan, Khan, the leader of the Turks, was sent to Jianwu to offer congratulations and seal the territory map. In five years, the imperial edict sent Sima Sunchang as the commander-in-chief of Guangzhou to recover the bones and destroy the Beijing view established by North Korea. Build the Great Wall, from Fuyu City in the northeast to the sea in the southwest, more than 1000 miles.

Emperor Taizong has taken advantage of the bird Turkic, and the Jianwu envoy congratulated him and sealed the domain map. The emperor told Sima Sunchang, the Guangzhou division, to heal the backs of Sui soldiers and destroy the Beijing view established by North Korea. The fear of building the army is to build the Great Wall of Wan Li, which is the first in the northeast and the sea in the southwest.

In the 14th year of Rong Liu, the Tang Dynasty sent Sima Sunchang, the commander of guangzhou fu, to sleep in the bones of soldiers in Sui Jun, thus destroying the established view of Beijing at that time. In February of spring, Wang built the Great Wall, starting from Fuyu City in the north, west to southwest and east to the sea, with a total length of more than 1,000 miles, which took 16 years to complete.

Holding a book and saying

In the first month of the spring of twenty-five years, he sent envoys to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty. The king ordered western adults to report the battle of the Great Wall with Su Wen.

If you stay in the king, you will build an army. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there were frequent wars in the Central Plains, and Koguryo took the opportunity to refuse to be a minister. In order to recover lost territory, the Sui and Tang Dynasties both made expeditions, which frightened them. Therefore, they are proud to have been king for 14 years, that is, five years in Emperor Taizong's Zhenguan, five years in February, and twenty years in Emperor Taizong's Zhenguan. In AD, it took 16 years to build a Great Wall with a length of 1000 miles from Fuyu in the northeast to the seaside. At the same time, we also see that in the twenty-five years of Rong Liu, that is, eleven years after the Great Wall was built, Gai Suwen, a western adult, was still supervising the construction of the Great Wall. It can be seen that the construction of the Great Wall has never stopped, and its project is quite huge, and the record of "completed in 16 years" is also credible.

After the construction of Koguryo Great Wall, its historical role is not significant. With the demise of the Koguryo regime and the unification of the Tang Dynasty, the Great Wall lost its original function, so it was not obvious from then on, and it was rarely seen in later literature. /kloc-today, more than 300 years later, because there is no clear ruins of the Great Wall, no matter historical researchers, ethnic researchers or Great Wall researchers have ever mentioned the Great Wall in the past, and of course no one has discussed it in depth. In recent years, due to the development of archaeology and in-depth research, we began to pay attention to the Koguryo Great Wall and published some articles before and after. However, because the Koguryo Great Wall is really slim, there is no way to find it, because there is no clear site and I don't know where to build it, so some articles are just guesses, so there is no conclusion yet. Moreover, we can clearly see from the published articles that their understanding is different and there are great differences. For example, there are completely different opinions on the most basic issue of determining its location, that is, the specific route of the Great Wall, which makes it impossible to draw a conclusion that everyone agrees with.
