What is the difference between ancient and modern messaging

Due to the rapid development of science and technology in modern society, there are various ways to transmit information, such as **, telegram fax, mobile phone text message, television, Internet and so on. The ancients used the following methods to convey information:

1] Feathers: Letters with feathers are mostly used in the urgency of war.

2] Chicken feather letter: generally used in the folk.

3] Feather Book: Used to recruit troops.

4] The pigeon biography [the said flying pigeon biography].

5] Fast Horse Biography.

6] Bamboo tube: used by officials and people, similar to the current envelope.

7] Urgent foot delivery: used to transmit urgent military information, commonly known as "passing gold medals".

8] Different dynasties such as Beacon Fire and Wolf Smoke had different ways of transmission. Mainly used in the defense system. This is what I learned from visiting the Information and Communication Pavilion at Expo 2010. Hope it works for you.

In ancient times, it used a beacon, and in modern times, it used the Internet.

From the point of view of filial piety, one is backward and the other is advanced;

In ancient times, it mainly relied on animals or human power to transmit, and the main thing that was transmitted was letters and other physical objects, and the methods were backward and passed on by word of mouth.

1. Flying pigeon transmission, 2. Hongyan transmission, 3. Maxima transmission, setting up a post station, like a relay, one station after another, until the destination is reached.

4. Otherwise, it is a list announcement.

The transmission speed is slow, the effect is poor, and the confidentiality work cannot be fully guaranteed.

You should be very clear about the modern way of transmission, there are various ways, postal (this is more similar to ancient times), the Internet, newspapers, periodicals, magazines, television, digital ** or something. Compare fast and safe to prepare the cherry blossoms.

China was one of the first countries in the world to establish an organized transmission information system. As early as the Shang Dynasty more than 3,000 years ago, information transmission was recorded. Passing by horse is called a post pass, which is an early organized form of communication.

Located in the square of Jiayuguan railway station, the "post envoy" sculpture, it is taken from the Jiayuguan Wei and Jin mural tombs, the post envoy holds a simple paper, the post horse is four-legged in the air, and the speed is fast. In 1982, the First Congress of the All-China Philatelic Federation was used as a theme pattern for small stamps, which shows that Jiayuguan is one of the birthplaces of China's information culture.

During the Qin and Han dynasties, a complete set of post transmission systems was formed. Especially in the Han Dynasty, the documents transmitted were divided into grades, and the documents of different grades should be transmitted by special personnel and horses in accordance with the prescribed order and time. The sending and receiving of these documents must be registered, and the time should be indicated to clarify the responsibility.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the post industry developed unprecedentedly. The official postal transportation line of the Tang Dynasty took the capital Chang'an as the center, radiated to the four directions, and went directly to the border area, with a post station roughly 30 miles. According to the records of the Six Classics of the Tang Dynasty, there were 1,639 post stations in the country at its peak, with more than 20,000 people specializing in post services, including 17,000 post soldiers.

The post post is divided into three types: land post, water post and waterway merger, and each post station is equipped with a post house, equipped with a post horse, a post donkey, a post boat and a post field.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were also clear regulations on the itinerary of the post post, and the land post fast horse walked 6 posts a day, that is, 180 miles, and then 300 miles a day, and the fastest required 500 miles a day; Walkers travel 50 miles a day; When sailing against the current, the river travels 40 miles, the river travels 50 miles, and the other 60 miles; When going down the river, it is always 100 to 150 miles. The poet Cen Shen wrote in the poem "The Judge of the Character on the Way to Longshan at the First Stage" that "one post passes through one post, and the post rides like a stream of stars; Pingming sent Xianyang, curtain and Longshantou". Here he compares the stagecoach to a shooting star.

On November 9, the 14th year of Tianbao, An Lushan rebelled in Fanyang. At that time, Tang Xuanzong was in Huaqing Palace, and the two places were separated by three thousand miles, and Tang Xuanzong knew the news within 6 days, and the transmission speed reached 500 miles per day. It can be seen that the organization and speed of post communication in the Tang Dynasty have reached a very high level.

In the Song Dynasty, all official documents and letters were collectively referred to as "delivery", and "express delivery shops" appeared. There is a copper bell tied to the collar of the post horse of the express delivery, and when galloping on the road, the bell is ringed during the day, and the fire is raised at night, and the person who is killed is not responsible. Shop for horses, number of shops for people, rain or shine, day and night.

In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, Yue Fei, the anti-gold general, was forcibly recalled to Lin'an from the front line by Song Gaozong with twelve gold medals.
