The Frontier Fortress Weapon-equipments And The Administration System In Han Slips

The weaponry was produced accompanied by the occurrence of war,it's a product of a certain historical stage with development of human society,all emperors attached importance to it.In Han Dynasty,Xiongnu,Xiqiang and other national minorities often invaded,killed people and got money,who had brought tremendous damage for Han's agricultural production and farming.Therefore,Han dynasty especially took seriously to the defense of frontier,through establishing lots of forts,deploying troops and developing agriculture in order to defend the frontier's security.Meanwhile,Han dynasty gave out to the officers and Soldiers all kinds of advanced weapons and equipment,which included crossbow,bow,knife,sword,armor,shield and so on..Because weapon's value is high and the number of weapons is large in the frontier, therefore,Han dynasty used many ways to manage the weapons,so as to making them be used effectively.There were mainly three ways:First,drawing up laws,providing for the use of weapons with the provisions of laws;Second,drawing up account books,through the account books making clearly the weapon's number,lend,damage,etc;Third,the higher-level officials patroled and inspected non-periodically the weapons.Moreover,Han Dynasty's management of weapons in the frontier also had its own characteristics,of which the most prominent one was the weapons in the arsenal and bonds can be lend to individuals.Clausewitz once had said:"War is the continuation of politics",But I believe that no the victory of wars and the consolidation of frontiers,there is no politics,the war decides politics to a certain extent.Therefore,military reconstruction of Han Dynasty's frontier was very important,which had provided a safe platform for Han dynasty's development and prosperity of politics,economy and culture.
