Sib ntaus sib tua Anthem ntawm Tebchaws, Tebchaws Asmeskas, 1861

Riam phom los ntawm tsev cia puav pheej. Feem ntau nws tau lees paub hauv peb lub tebchaws tias cov xeev sab qab teb thaum ua tsov rog nruab nrab thiab Sab Qab Teb yog cov neeg txom nyem thiab tsis txaus siab nyob rau hauv cov txheej txheem, uas tsis tuaj yeem hais tau, vim "txhua qhov kev lag luam hnyav tau tsom mus rau sab qaum teb." Txawm li cas los xij, qhov no tsis yog, lossis theej, tsis zoo li ntawd. Piv txwv li, hauv Richmond, Virginia, lub nroog uas yog peev ntawm Confederation, muaj Tredegar Iron Works, tau qhib rau xyoo 1837. Txog xyoo 1860, nws twb yog lub tuam txhab loj tshaj plaws thib peb ntawm nws hom nyob hauv Tebchaws Meskas. Yog li thaum Tsov Rog Zaum Ob muaj ib tus neeg los tsim cov hlau, phom loj thiab phom rau pab tub rog. Lwm qhov yog tias tsis muaj hlau txaus nws tus kheej. Ntxiv mus, thaum lub nroog yuav tsum yog cov tub rog ntawm cov neeg sab qaum teb nyob rau xyoo 1865, nws dim kev puas tsuaj thiab tom qab ntawd ua haujlwm tau zoo thaum kawg ntawm lub xyoo pua puv 19 thiab tom qab ntawd nyob rau thawj ib nrab ntawm lub xyoo pua 20th, thiab txawm tias thaum ob lub ntiaj teb kev tsov rog. Zoo, hnub no lub tsev khaws puav pheej qhib hauv nws. Ntawm no peb yuav tsum them se rau cov neeg Amelikas: lawv tuaj yeem tsim lub tsev khaws puav pheej tawm ntawm txhua yam, qhov tseem ceeb yog qhov khoom muaj hnub nyoog txaus thiab muaj nws keeb kwm. Ib qho ntxiv, kuj tseem muaj chaw ua haujlwm ntawm lub tiaj ua si zoo nkauj hauv tebchaws - Richmond National Battlefield Park.

Nws yog qhov txaus siab uas twb tau muaj nyob rau xyoo 1841, uas tsis ntev tom qab qhib, cov tswv ntawm cov nroj tsuag tau muab tso rau hauv kev tswj hwm ntawm cov tub ntxhais hluas (28-xyoo) engineer Joseph Reed Anderson, uas tau daws cov haujlwm nyuaj no ib yam li ua tau. Ntxiv mus, nws tau daws teeb meem zoo li thaum xyoo 1848 nws tau los ua tus tswv ua tswv cuab ntawm cov tuam txhab no thiab ua tiav tias nws cov nroj tsuag pib tau txais kev xaj los ntawm tsoomfwv.

Ib qho ntxiv, Anderson tau ntse heev. Tus neeg nto npe Scarlett O'Hara tau pib ntiav cov neeg raug txim kom txo tus nqi tsim khoom ntawm nws cov tshuab txiav ntoo, thiab nws siv zog ua qhev, thiab muaj txiaj ntsig zoo. Yog li, xyoo 1861, yuav luag ib nrab ntawm cov neeg ua haujlwm hauv lub hoobkas, thiab li ntawm 900 leej ntawm lawv ua haujlwm nyob ntawd, yog qhev, suav nrog txawm tias cov thawj coj! Thiab rov qab rau xyoo 1860, qee tus Robert Archer, uas yog txheeb ze ntawm Anderson, kuj tau koom nrog txoj haujlwm no, nqis peev nws cov peev nyiaj hauv tsob ntoo thiab dhau los ua ib tus neeg tsim khoom hlau loj tshaj plaws hauv Tebchaws Meskas. Thiab rau KSA lub tuam txhab no yog qhov loj tshaj plaws.

Nws yog qhov txaus siab tias lub tuam txhab no tau tsim ntau yam ntawm cov phom loj. Yog li, hauv cov ntaub ntawv rau kev muab rau cov tub rog tshwm sim 6-phaus tooj tooj phom phom thiab 12-phaus tooj liab tooj liab du-bore howitzers. Ntxiv mus, cov phom tau muag … los ntawm qhov hnyav, ntawm tus nqi 55 xees ib phaus. Ib zaug ntxiv, yog tias koj saib cov ntaub ntawv, nws tau dhau los ua qhov txaus nyiam heev: thaum qhov hnyav ntawm cov neeg hnyav li cas nyob hauv kev ua siab ntev, rab phom 6-phaus hnyav plaub caug phaus ntau dua li cov kev cai xav tau.

Hauv Tebchaws Meskas, muaj daim ntawv teev npe hauv tebchaws ntawm cov riam phom uas muaj sia nyob los ntawm Tsov Rog Zaum Ob, uas sau tseg txhua rab phom uas tau muaj txoj sia nyob mus txog niaj hnub no, lawv qhov chaw nyob thiab tus lej thiab cov npe uas tau muaj sia nyob ntawm lawv. Nws muaj peev xwm nrhiav pom tias Tredegar cog thoob plaws hauv kev ua tsov rog tau muab rau cov tub rog sab qab teb nrog ntau yam ntawm cov phom loj, feem ntau yog 3-nti hlau phom phom phom, thiab 6-phom phom phom tooj liab tooj liab, thiab rab phom sib tsoo.

Lwm lub tuam txhab uas tsim cov phom loj rau pab tub rog ntawm cov xeev sab qab teb yog Noble Kwv Tij Hoobkas los ntawm Rome, Georgia - Noble Brothers Foundry. Qhov chaw tsim khoom no tau tsim los ntawm James Noble Sr. thiab nws rau tus tub (William, James Jr., Stephen, George, Samuel, thiab John) txog xyoo 1855. Nyob ib ncig ntawm tib lub sijhawm, cov kwv tij tau xaj lub tshuab dhos loj los ntawm Pennsylvania. Thiab nws loj heev uas nws tau ua ntej los ntawm lub tshuab nqus dej mus rau Txawb, Alabama, los ntawm qhov chaw nws tau thauj los ntawm nkoj dej hla tus dej Kusa mus rau thawj dej tsaws tsag. Ntawm no nws tau raug rhuav tshem, thiab twb tau nqa ntawm lub laub nqa los ntawm lub laub mus rau lub tuam txhab lag luam hauv Rome.

Lub chaw tsim khoom tau tsim nkoj lub cav ua cav, lub rhaub dej kub thiab lub tshuab ua pa. Xyoo 1857, lub chaw tsim khoom tau tsim thawj lub tsheb ciav hlau rau txoj kev tsheb ciav hlau Roman, thawj lub tsheb ciav hlau tau tsim los rau sab qab teb ntawm Richmond.

Xyoo 1862, hauv Cedar Bluff, lub nroog nyob sib ze rau Loos, cov kwvtij tau ua lub tshuab tawg tawg kom thiaj li muaj lawv cov hlau nyob ntawm tes. Noble Kwv Tij cov lag luam tau tsim cov ntawv theej ntawm Parrott cannons hauv qhov siab 10 thiab 20 phaus, uas los ntawm no tau faib thoob plaws lub roj teeb ntawm cov tub rog ntawm Sab Qab Teb. Qhov tseeb tias tag nrho rau tus kwv tij Noble tau raug zam los ntawm kev sau npe hais txog qhov tseem ceeb ntawm cov neeg nyob sab qab teb rau qhov kev tsim khoom no. Tus Thawj Kav Tebchaws Confederate Jefferson Davis tau hais li no: "… rau tus kwv tij Noble raug zam los ntawm tsab cai lij choj, vim tias peb muaj coob leej neeg tuaj yeem tawm tsam, tab sis tsawg leej uas tuaj yeem ua phom loj." Muaj tseeb, kev tsim phom xyoo 1864 tau raug ncua ntawm no vim yog kev thov rau lawv qhov zoo.

Thaum lub Kaum Ib Hlis Ntuj xyoo 1864, Lub Koomhaum Pabcuam tau hlawv lub Noble cov kwvtij lub koomhaum, thiab ntawm lawv lub tshuab dhos zoo (thiab nws tseem muaj sia nyob txog niaj hnub no!) Ntawm qhov siab ntawm 10 taw, cov kab ntawm cov sledgehammers uas cov neeg sab qaum teb tau sim ua kom puas nws tseem pom Tab sis … tsis muaj ib qho ntawm no tuaj ntawm nws. Lub tshuab loj heev muaj lub zog tsav, tom qab ntawd siv hluav taws xob thiab ua haujlwm … yuav luag txog thaum nruab nrab xyoo 1960!

Lub nroog Macon tseem muaj lub tshuab hlau, uas cov neeg nyob sab Qab Teb tau pib siv los ua cov khoom siv thiab tsim cov mos txwv nyob ntawd, nrog rau rab phom 6- thiab 12-phaus Napoleon thiab Parrot. Nws ua haujlwm kom txog thaum Lub Plaub Hlis 1865, thaum nws tau raug puas tsuaj thaum General James Wilson raug tua. Nyob rau hauv tag nrho, txog 90 phom ntawm ntau yam calibers tau tsim ntawm no.

Nyob rau hauv tag nrho, Noble cov kwv tij cov lag luam tsim tawm txog 60 rab phom loj rau Confederation, 24 ntawm uas yog 3-nti hlau phom, uas pom meej heev qhia txog teeb meem nrog kev tsim khoom ntawm cov neeg sab qab teb. Yog lawm, lawv tuaj yeem ua riam phom thiab mos txwv, tab sis lawv tsuas yog tsis muaj cov khoom siv txaus rau qhov no!

Thaum lub caij nplooj ntoo hlav xyoo 1862, Memphis-based firm Quinby & Robinson tseem tau teeb tsa los ua lub chaw tsim khoom phom loj rau Kev Koom Tes. Lub tuam txhab tau pib tsim riam phom nyob rau lub Plaub Hlis thiab xaus kev muab ze li 80 phom rau Confederation. Cov no feem ntau yog 6- thiab 12-pounder teb howitzers, thiab lub tuam txhab tau dhau los ua ib tus thawj tsim ntawm "Napoleonic" phom rau Confederate pab tub rog.

Nws tseem yuav tsum tau nco txog kev lag luam A. B. Nyeem & Kwv Tij los ntawm Vicksburg, Mississippi. Muaj, tus tswv lag luam Abram Brich Nyeem Ntawv, nrog rau nws tus tij laug, teeb tsa lub chaw tsim khoom thiab cov khoom tsim vaj tsev los ntawm tus dej. Lub tuam txhab tsim cov rhaub dej kub thiab cov tshuab ua pa rau lub cav thiab cov cuab yeej siv tshuab rau kev lag luam teeb. Tsis ntev tom qab muaj kev ua tsov rog, lub tuam txhab hloov mus rau cov khoom lag luam tub rog. Tab sis tom qab xyoo ntawd, lub tuam txhab tau xauj nws cov cuab yeej feem ntau mus rau cov khoom siv hauv Atlanta thiab tsis ua nws tus kheej cov phom. Txawm li cas los xij, thaum lub Kaum Ob Hlis 1861 thiab Tsib Hlis 1862, lub tuam txhab tsim 45 rab phom nrog nws tus cim. Lawv yog txhua tus tooj liab phom 6-phaus, 12-phaus thiab 3-nti phom phom.

Zoo, qee cov phom loj tau xaus hauv Tebchaws Meskas los ntawm kev sib tsoo. Qhov no yog li cas, piv txwv li, Austrian 3, 75-inch phom phom howitzer poob rau Asmeskas av. Cov quav hniav txuas nrog nws cov plinth hais tias nws yog "Austrian 6-pounder rifled howitzer" thiab tias nws tau raug ntes ntawm Columbia thaum Lub Yim Hli 3, 1862. Columbia yog lub nkoj hnyav 500-tuj thiab yog ib lub nkoj uas thaiv tau-tawg zoo li lub sijhawm ntawd. Nws tau raug ntes los ntawm cov neeg nyob sab qaum teb tom qab caum-teev caum ntawm hiav txwv 75 mais sab qaum teb ntawm Bahamas kob ntawm Abasco.

Lub nkoj tau ntim cov mos txwv, phom, hlau, pam vov thiab lwm yam khoom siv thiab riam phom, suav nrog ob rab phom tooj dag 24 phaus tooj dag. Ib ntawm lawv dais cov ntawv: "Vienna 1852", ntawm lwm qhov - "Vienna 1854". Cov phom tau muaj txoj sia nyob, thiab txawm hais tias lawv cov thooj av tau txhaws nrog cov ntoo ntsaws, nws tuaj yeem pom tias phom ntev rau lawv tob dua li siv hauv Tebchaws Meskas, tab sis kev tsim cov phom yog ntau dua. Yog li cov thawj coj (cov neeg tawg ntawm kev thaiv) los ntawm cov neeg sab qaum teb zoo li Rhett Butler los ntawm "Gone with the Wind" nqa tsis tsuas yog cov hlua thiab hlua rau cov poj niam nyob rau sab qab teb, tab sis kuj tseem coj kev pab loj rau CSA, xa cov ntaub ntawv thiab txawm tias riam phom nws xav tau hauv pauv rau paj rwb ntawm Sab Qab Teb.
