Chapter 863: China's No. 1 Female Warrior! A truly charming ancestor!

The new sky screen plays at lightning speed!

[She, holding a bronze axe, fought in all directions. ]

[She commands the army with ease.]

[She was the favorite queen of King Wu Ding of Shang Dynasty and an important figure who appeared more than 200 times in oracle bone inscriptions.]

[She is also the first documented female military commander in Chinese history.]

[With her outstanding military talents and political wisdom, she wrote her own legend in the ancient Shang Dynasty.]

【She is Fu Hao. 】

【China's earliest and most powerful female warrior. 】

[In May 1976, the Anyang team of the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences discovered a well-preserved Shang Dynasty tomb while drilling in the northwest of Xiaotun Village.]

[When archaeologists carefully opened the tomb that had been sealed for three thousand years, the scene before them shocked everyone.]

[A total of 1928 artifacts of various types were unearthed from the tomb, including 468 bronze artifacts, 755 jade artifacts, and 564 bone artifacts.]

[There are also stone tools, ivory tools, pottery and more than 6800 seashells.]

[These objects are not only numerous, but also exquisitely crafted and beautifully shaped. ]

[Especially those bronze vessels with the inscription "Fuhao" directly point to the identity of the tomb owner. ]

[Fu Hao, the wife of King Wu Ding of the Shang Dynasty and the famous female war goddess. ]

[Fu Hao lived during the reign of Wu Ding of the Shang Dynasty, a glorious era later known as the "Wu Ding Restoration."]

[Wu Ding reigned for more than 50 years and was committed to reviving the Shang Dynasty. Through a series of political, economic and military reforms, he brought the Shang Dynasty to its peak.]

【At the same time, in the Shang Dynasty, women had a relatively high social status. 】

[Not only can they participate in important activities such as sacrifices and divination, but they can also own their own fiefdoms and property. ]

[The country's growing strength and relatively relaxed social environment provided a broad stage for Fu Hao to display her talents.]

[As the wife of King Wu Ding of the Shang Dynasty, Fu Hao and Wu Ding had a deep relationship, and they helped each other politically and militarily. ]

[According to oracle bone inscriptions, Wu Ding trusted and loved Fu Hao very much.]

[Whenever there was a major decision, Fu Hao's opinion was often sought through divination.]

[And Fu Hao did not disappoint Wu Ding's trust. She not only assisted Wu Ding in handling government affairs, but also personally led the army to expand the territory for the Shang Dynasty.]

[In the oracle bone inscriptions, there are more than 200 records about Fu Hao's conquests.]

[These precious written records restore for us the life of this female warrior. ]

At this moment, a slice of video was played on the sky screen.

In the documentary, Wu Ding and Fu Hao are a loving couple who respect each other.

The two worked and lived together, and in the conference room, when Wu Ding was worried about military affairs, Fu Hao gave him gentle encouragement.

Although the ancient costumes the two wore were not gorgeous.

But the picture presented is very heartwarming, which made many ancient people yearn for it.

The Shang Dynasty outside the sky.

When Emperor Xin saw his ancestors, he couldn't help but feel longing and full of emotion.

"Hey, Wu Ding!"

"That was truly the glorious era of our Great Shang!"

"As a top military strategist, Saint King Wu Ding fought wars in the east and west, in the south and the north, and brought the Shang Dynasty to an unprecedented height!"

"This is the great King Shang that the people of the Shang Dynasty will always be proud of!"

"And I work so hard."

"It is to recreate the glory of Wu Ding in the past."

"Once again, Zhongxing Dashang will make Dashang great again."

"Become the true ruler of the world!"

"Ancestors, Wu Ding, Fu Hao, please bless our Shang Dynasty."

The voice of the sky curtain continued to sound slowly:

【Shang Dynasty, about 1250 BC.】

[King Wu Ding of the Shang Dynasty, who was considered a god of war, was facing the greatest crisis since he came to power. ]

[The native tribes in the northwest constantly invaded the border and captured people and livestock;]

[The Yi people in the southeast and the Ba people in the southwest are also ready to make a move. ]

[What’s even more terrifying is that the Indo-Europeans from the Eurasian steppes, a nomadic people called “Gui Fang” by merchants, are advancing eastward with the remnants of their conquest of Greece and India.]

[The generals sent by the Shang Dynasty were defeated one after another, and the court was filled with gloom and sorrow.]

[At this moment, an unexpected figure appeared in front of Wu Ding. ]

[His queen Fu Hao volunteered to lead the army to the battle.]

[This decision was shocking at the time.] [Although the status of women in the Shang Dynasty was higher than in later generations, there was no precedent for concubines in the harem to lead troops.]

[The oracle bone inscriptions recorded Wu Ding's hesitation: "Zhen: Should I send three thousand Fuhao and ten thousand troops to attack the Qiang?"]

[This is a divination, Wu Ding asked the gods: Is it okay to recruit Fu Hao's 3,000 personal soldiers and 10,000 regular troops to attack the Qiang people?]

[When the tortoise shell showed a good omen, Wu Ding finally made up his mind. ]

[No one had expected that this queen, who usually presided over sacrifices, would show amazing military talent on the battlefield.]

[She defeated the Hijikata tribe in her first battle.]

[Then they adopted ambush tactics, and together with Wu Ding, they attacked from both the east and the west to completely wipe out the main force of the Pakistani side.]

[It created the earliest classic battle example with written records in the history of Chinese warfare.]

【On the battlefield of that ancient era, Fu Hao broke the pattern of traditional warfare. 】

[She is particularly good at using terrain and psychological tactics. ]

[When conquering the Qiang, she led half of the Shang Dynasty's army, or 13,000 men, to fight against an enemy force of 20,000 men.]

[This number may seem insignificant today, but it was unprecedented at the time.]

【Among all the oracle bones that have been discovered. 】

[This is also the record of the largest number of troops. ]

【Considering that the oracle bone inscriptions were not meant to be exaggerated, but to be consulted with the gods, the numbers of military strength are also very reliable.】

[When the oracle bone inscriptions recorded this battle, they particularly emphasized that "Fu Hao had 3,000 men."]

[This means that she has her own 3,000 direct troops.]

[This scale of military force was extremely rare in the Shang Dynasty.]

[What is even more amazing is that she creatively divided the troops into multiple combat units and adopted the tactic of dividing and conquering. ]

【Completely defeated the Qiang army that looked down on women.】

【After several months of fierce fighting, the Qiang forces were greatly weakened. 】

[From then on, it was no longer able to pose a threat to the Shang Dynasty.]

[This battle not only consolidated the northwestern border of the Shang Dynasty, but also made Fu Hao famous and became a female warrior that the enemy was terrified of.]

Accompanying the video playback.

The picture also shows wonderful scenes of wars in ancient times.

Seeing Fu Hao on the sky curtain, he led his troops to charge left and right and defeated the enemy.

Barrages of comments also flew out:
"Fuhao? The one who captured Aryans as sacrifices?"

"Yes, the first big man to use purebred Aryans as his burial companion."

"It's true, 20,000 white ghosts were killed!"

"It's not certain that 20,000 white ghosts were killed, but the DNA of white people was indeed found."

"So handsome, this is the truly charming ancestor!"

"At that time, Fu Hao had 3000 private soldiers? This is incredibly powerful!"

"Commanding 13,000 men in battle, that's a lot of troops, that was in the ancient times!"

"Even Zhang Liao had never commanded so many people."

"Are the Guifang people the Huns? Are they the Aryans?"

"I don't know, but it should be coming from the northwest."

"Fu Hao was a great general of the Shang Dynasty at that time, but she was also the high priest! Her power was comparable to that of the Shang king."

"Comparable to the King of Shang? Hard to say!"

"The high priest of the Shang Dynasty, whose status was even higher than that of the Shang king!"

And on the sky.

Qin Dynasty.

Ying Zheng was also very satisfied when he saw Tianmu telling the story and praising Fu Hao of the Shang Dynasty.

Although Ying Zheng believed that the Qin Dynasty was far superior to the Shang Dynasty.

But Ying Zheng still had great respect for the Shang Dynasty.

Ying Zheng said happily:

"The Shang Dynasty was very powerful back then, and Fu Hao was a high priest and queen as famous as the holy king Wu Ding."

"It's just that it's been a long time, and many people don't know the style of the Shang Dynasty that my Qin ancestors served."

“That was a truly glorious era!”

"This video of Tianmu is a good example of popular science!"

"Let the whole world see the elegance of the ancestors of the Shang Dynasty, haha." (End of this chapter)
