On The Utilization Of Livestock Resources In Military Field During The Unification Of Qin

The history of human is inseparable from the participation of animals,and in the course of Qin’s unification,the animals such as horses and cattle play an important role,especially in the military field.The utilization of the livestock is objectively the result of human domestication,but the proper management of the Qin also reflects the rationality and the power of the Qin system.In addition,the role of livestock can not be separated from the participation of human beings,so the research of the history of animals is to be carried out around the man-made center.As early as the Shang-Zhou period,people have realized that cattle and other livestock can play an important role in the military field.Oracle has shown that the Shang Dynasty already has the special responsibility for animal husbandry;the emergence of the technology of cutting and cutting has the potential to cultivate good seeds;and the pit of the pit of Anyang Yin’s excavation indicates that the horses have been applied on the battlefield.Zhou Dynasty is more complete and more complete,and the political system reflected in Zhou Li has the meaning of the ideal blueprint of the scholars of the Spring and Autumn and the Warring States,but it can also be used to know some of the facts of the Zhou Dynasty system.The method of the livestock classification of the Zhou Dynasty provides the basis for the utilization of the livestock,and the understanding of the horse,the cow’s habit and the reproductive cycle is deeply deepened,and the training of the animals is also mastered,and the martial value of the horse and the cattle is reflected in the inscriptions on the Western Zhou Dynasty.The above constitutes the historical basis for the utilization of the Qin to the horse and the cattle.Qin’s history of using livestock in military can be traced back to its early history,and the important thing is that Qin has always been ahead of other regions in livestock farming technology in all historical periods.In the early history of Qin nationality,"Fei Zi Yi Qin" is the symbol of the rise of Qin nationality,and its root is that Qin nationality is good at raising livestock;Many Xiangma and Xiangniu famous scholars appeared in the Spring and Autumn period and the warring States period.Although they were talked about by later generations in the form of legends,through the investigation of the history of ideas after Qin Dynasty,Posterity often think that they mainly play a role in Qin,or they are Qin themselves,which also shows the great achievements and influence of Qin in raising livestock.After the political reform of the Shang Yang,it has also been strengthened in the cultivation of its livestock.The relevant regulations of Qin and Jane,Longgang and Qin show that the Qin’s beasts should undergo careful and rigorous examination,which is not only the reward and punishment mechanism of the officers at all levels,and the death of the old and old people of the livestock is controlled by the government.The Court is a system that is closely related to the military system,and in particular,the Court is different,but the animals in the stables are often used for military purposes,and the horses and the cattle are not on their outer sides.In addition,the law of Qin has specific provisions on the protection of livestock and even the prevention of maltreatment,and the protection and use of the small-sized foal has been very scientific.In particular,in the form of the utilization of the animal power resources,the cattle are mainly used for the delivery of military materials,the calculation of the transportation capacity of the cattle and the large number of transportation required,and the transportation tasks undertaken by the cattle are heavy,and this is the concrete embodiment of the important role of the cattle in the field of war.In the form of the use of the horse in the battlefield,the use of the horse is transited from the chariot to the cavalry.For this reason,the Qin law specifically sets out the selection criteria of the military horse and so on;the other important role of the horse in the war is to transmit the military newspaper,and the transfer of the important information is often carried out through the mail transmission system,in fact,The development and utilization of the post-mail system also reflect the understanding and understanding of the horses.In order to guarantee the quantity of the horse,the cattle play an important role in the military field.For the cattle,Qin also relies on the folk livestock in addition to the official culture,and the method is to master the quantity of the folk livestock and to adjust it if necessary,and to restrict the circulation of the buying and selling of the folk horses and to encourage the cultivation of the folk livestock.With the use of livestock,the problem of non-avoidance is the supply of the feed and,in order to guarantee the sufficiency of the feed,the Qin levy is for the required amount.In addition to grass-feeding,in order to ensure the nutrition of some of the animals,they will also be fed with a fine feed of some cereal.
