虎符-Tiger Tallies

虎符，作为一种古代的军事令牌，承载着皇权的象征和军队调度的重要工具。

Tiger Talisman, as an ancient military token, carries a symbol of imperial power and an important tool for military dispatch.

这种由青铜或黄金制成的伏虎形状令牌，被精心劈分为两半，左半交予将领，右半则由皇帝亲自保管。只有当这两半虎符合二为一时，持有者才能获得至高无上的军事指挥权。

This token, made of bronze or gold in the shape of a crouching tiger, was carefully split into two halves, with the left half given to the general and the right half kept by the emperor himself. Only when the two halves of the tiger become one, can the holder obtain supreme military command.

其历史可追溯至春秋战国时期，铜制的虎形兵符不仅是中央对地方官员或军队首领的信任凭证，更是调兵遣将的关键所在。每一对虎符都刻有相同的铭文，形状和榫卯设计精密对应，确保了其独一无二的身份验证机制。这种一符一用的制度，体现了古代军事指挥的严格性和秩序性，确保了军令的准确传达和执行。

Its history can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The copper tiger-shaped military talisman was not only a certificate of trust from the central government to local officials or army leaders, but also the key to dispatching troops and generals. Each pair of tiger charms is engraved with the same inscription, and the shape and mortise and tenon design are closely matched, ensuring its unique identity verification mechanism. This system of one symbol and one use reflects the strictness and orderliness of ancient military command and ensures the accurate transmission and execution of military orders.

PS:这是我用blender做的第一个雕刻模型,部分细节可能不是很好,因为打印要把平放在面板上,所以榫卯连接就没有做,还请见谅

PS: This is the first sculpture model I made with blender. Some details may not be very good because the printing needs to be laid flat on the panel, so the mortise and tenon connection is not done. Please forgive me.
