British hero Oliver Cromwell

 Cromwell [Cromwell, Oliver, 1599.4.25-1658.9.3] 

General of the Parliament against King Charles I during the Puritan Revolution. Born in Huntington, eastern England. Born the son of an upper family, he studied at Grammar School and Cambridge University in Huntington, and was greatly influenced by Puritanism. After that, he studied law at the Lincoln's in London, married in 1620, returned to his hometown and devoted himself to the management of his own territory. It is said that around this time, he opened his eyes to faith and experienced repentance, and became conscious as a person chosen by God. He became a member of the House of Representatives from Huntington in 1628, but when Congress was dissolved in 1629, he disposed of his possession, moved to St. Ives, and then moved back to Eli. During the short-term and long-term parliaments of 1640, he was elected from Cambridge and stood out as a politician by his involvement in 18 committees. When the first civil war broke out in 1642, he led the cavalry along with Count Essex (3rd), a general of the parliamentary army, and established his major in the Battle of Edgehill. After that, he formed an excellent cavalry regiment with Puritanism-based discipline and equipment, and in 1644, he became a deputy commander of the Eastern Allied Forces and won the Battle of Mastonmoor, giving his army the name Cheoldaegi. In 1645, he reformed the entire army, forming a new model army, and became the deputy commander of Fairfax, making a last-ditch attack on the king in the Battle of Nazevision, capturing the king in 1647. However, when the king fled during the conflict between the parliamentarians, and the second civil war broke out in 1648, he made an expedition to Wales and defeated the invading Scottish army at Preston. In 1649, King Charles I was executed to eradicate the roots of the counter-revolution, and the royal and aristocratic houses were abolished to declare a "republic and free country," while suppressing left-wing horizontalists and authentic horizontalists, and in 1649, he visited Ireland. In 1653, the long-term parliament was dissolved, and when the nominating parliament composed of only recommended members was too radical, it was dissolved, and he himself established a state-of-the-art and began to rule politics. When the royalist conspiracy was revealed in 1654, the whole country was divided into 10 military districts and 11 military districts later in 1655, and military government ministers were assigned to carry out military dictatorship. In 1657, he was given a crown, but he refused it. -Other additions. -James I of England safely overcame the rebellion of Gaiforks and died after being expelled. However, his son [Charles I] was angry with Congress and [Puritan] for supporting Catholicism, and eventually rebelled. The British civil war, which began in this way, ended when Charles' head was cut off at the execution table. Any British history book explains how Charles I's head was cut off. and the fact that it was Oliver Cromwell who commanded the execution. But to find out what happened to Cromwell's head, a very special history book is needed. During his lifetime, Cromwell had a very ugly face on his head. There was a large wart on the left eye, and his nose was large and red. He was nicknamed "Guri Nose," "Ruby Nose," and even "Almighty Nose." Revolution often reverses things. The person holding the axe bag may be axed. The next story is all true. On September 3, 1658, Cromwell died at the age of 59. Dr. Bates removed the head during an autopsy. He said his brain weighs three kilograms (if it was really that heavy, wouldn't he have broken his neck after nodding his head?) He prepared to pickle the body in vinegar. The method is described in a book published in France in the 17th century. Saw the head and split it into two pieces, and the brain is placed in a bowl with intestines and blood.》 Fill the empty head with a cloth, sew it, and attach it again. The body is wrapped in a green cloth like a mummy. But it's useless. As the burial was delayed during the preparation of a luxurious funeral, the bodies began to mold and smell very unpleasant. The funeral committee prepared fake bodies because they could not show moldy bodies in public. The head was made of wax on the wooden body, and the face was colored with glass eyeballs. In October 1658, one of the imitations is displayed, and people wait in line for hours to see it. The real body smelled so bad in the coffin that it was buried in Westminster Abbey in a hurry around October 26. In November 1658, one of the imitations was seated in a carriage and held a state funeral. The funeral costs (60,000 (which is now billions of won), which is the most expensive funeral in the world for a piece of wood and wax. Still, countless tourists from all over the world flocked to see the spectacular view. In May 1659, Cromwell's son took over the position of the "Homingwan." But he was expelled, and the new parliament summoned Charles II to serve as king. Doctor Bates becomes a hero after being suspected of poisoning Cromwell! Meanwhile, Congress charged Cromwell and other people who killed the king with treason. They are sentenced to beheaded, and 11 Puritans who are still alive areheaded. But what people really want to see is the execution of Cromwell. On December 4, 1660, Congress voted to dig Cromwell up the road and drag the body to the gallows. January 30, 1661, the 12th anniversary of the execution of Pals I. Cromwell's body was suspended from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. from a gallows in London. When the sun went down, the body was cut and decapitated. The body was well pickled and wrapped in cloth, so it was not until it was struck eight times with an axe that the head was cut off. The head was stuck in a pole and hung in the Westminster Hall. Charles II dies in February 1685. Cromwell's head escaped the plague and the fire in London. But the head was gone! Rumor has it that after being hit by a worker's fist, it was used as a soccer ball among the boys and split, and the debris fell into the Thames! Another rumor has it that a pole with his head stuck broke in the middle of the night, and a sentry named Private Barnes took his head home and hid it in a chimney. When Private Barnes died in 1720, he told his family where he hid his famous head. They found it and sold it to a Frenchman named Dupue. His private museum was full of stuffed animals, wax works, and shoes. In 1738, Dupu dies. The whereabouts of the head disappear and claim that a person named Samuel Russell has it. The head is on display on the display stand in Fuzhou. A jeweler named James Cox bought the head in 1787. Now the head is missing one ear. It is said that Cromwell's descendants stole it. Cox gets 230 pounds and sells it to a man named Hughes. If you look at the picture of this head in 1790, it has a tape on it. for his head was splitting. In 1799, the head was displayed on Bond Street in London. When the drunk Samuel Ressel returned and made a commotion asking for his head back, Hughes investigated in 1814 and sold his head to a pastor named Henry Wilkinson. In 1827 Wilkinson wrote a history of the head and cherished it! Now the skin has turned yellow. However, his hair and beard were well preserved. One visitor described the neck as "black and eaten by insects." The visitor went on to say, "My nose is flat. He probably cut his head off with his face facing the floor." At the top of the head, there was a hole in the place where the pole was inserted, and it did not come out. There was also an axe mark on his neck. In 1898, Cannon Horace Wilkinson gets this hair. Then, in 1935, two doctors borrowed the head and examined it. They concluded that this was really Cromwell's head. for the warts and acne marks on his face matched his portrait. There was even a worm in his jaw that had been infected by a pole! On March 25, 1960, the head was donated to Sydney Sussex University in Cambridge, Cromwell's alma mater, and buried there. A frame in the chapel says that he is buried nearby. However, the exact location has not been disclosed. for I didn't want to be stolen again. Cromwell's head is still buried there. Even a successful revolutionary leader can suffer such terrible revenge once the revolution is over.   Contents: [Book] Revolution is hot [Page 73]
