Legend has it that 99,999 bricks were used to build Jiayuguan, is there any way to say this?

Indeed, there is a saying that 99,999 bricks were used to build Jiayuguan, which is said to be a very powerful calculation expert Yi Zhankai needed 99,999 bricks according to accurate calculations at that time, and the last extra one was placed on the city tower of Jiayuguan, and each brick had the exact year, month, day and the name of the worker.

I remember when I was a child, the description of the Great Wall in the textbook said that it started from Jiayuguan in the west to Shanhaiguan in the east, and I didn't know what the concept was at that time, thinking that it was two places in a province, and I didn't know that the Great Wall was so long when I grew up.

Jiayuguan, known as "the first Xiongguan in the world", is located in the westernmost part of the Hexi Corridor in the western part of Gansu Province, in the middle of the narrowest valley in Jiayuguan City, the city walls on both sides pass through the desert Gobi, and is the westernmost pass of the Ming Great Wall.

Jiayuguan is an important connection between the ancient capital and the Western Regions, the important traffic artery of the famous "Silk Road", Jiayuguan is one of the three wonders of the Great Wall of our country, and two are Zhenbeitai and Shanhaiguan, which is the largest pass in existence, Jiayuguan began to be built from the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, at that time it was only six meters high, 2,500 square meters, and now there are more than 30,000 square meters.

When building Jiayuguan, because the expenditure is very much, the construction requirements are very strict, each brick is engraved with the corresponding year, month and day, and name, you can know that these bricks are very valuable.

There is a famous person in Jiayuguan Yi Kaizhan, saying that he can very accurately explain the materials used to build the building, and it is very accurate, when building Jiayuguan, Yi Kaizhan also gave "99999 bricks are needed" after calculation, but the supervisor of the construction of Jiayuguan did not believe it, so he said that one more piece and one less piece would take the head and ask.

After the completion of the remaining brick, this brick is called "Dingcheng brick", Yi Zhankai said at the time that this brick is put there by the gods, if anyone moves it, it will collapse, so this brick has been placed on the city tower of Jiayuguan.

Yes, but it is an exaggeration, partly to exaggerate the momentum of the Great Wall of the constellation, and partly to say that the Great Wall is too big, and then attract people to **.

When Jiayuguan was built, the project was too large. An engineer named Yi Kaizhan suggested that if you want to save materials, you have to draw paper first. Make a small model according to the drawing, and scale the small model to calculate how many bricks are used. After the calculation, 99,999 bricks were used.

There are mistakes in the name of the person in the article, and there are a few mistakes written as easy to occupy, which should be easy to open and occupy, and the homonym "a brick" corresponds to the legend of "a brick" in Jiayuguan Guancheng.

In fact, this time it's just a good lip gloss for a long time. If you really want to investigate the architectural style and architectural philosophy, it should be very empty.

In fact, this is just an exaggeration, not so much, and there is no specific data to indicate how many blocks there are.
