hello steemians ,have you ever gone to China for travel,There are many famous places,like west lake in Hangzhou,The Forbidden City, Great Wall,and Terracotta Warriors in Xi 'an province。
more than 2,000 years ago,The first feudal dynasty was recommended by Emperor whose name was Ying zheng , He wants his own dynasty to be handed down for thousands of years,
So he called himself the first emperor, he hoped that a strong army would defend him even after his death. It took more than 10 years to build the terracotta warriors,Each of the terracotta warriors was built according to the faces of the soldiers, including height and wear, so the terracotta warriors were different, and the facial expressions were very vivid. Even some of the terracotta warriors could see the color of their clothes while they were being discovered, but were soon oxidized in the air.
Through the terracotta warriors we can see the construction of the qin dynasty‘s army.
The size of the first pit is the largest, a rectangle, a main army of chariots and infantry, with not only terracotta warriors and chariots, but also ceramic horses and various bronzes.
The second pit can see the mystery of the qin dynasty's military array. The eastern bulge consists of the kneeling and the upright figures. The second unit, namely the southern half of the pit, is composed of four horses and four chariots. The third unit consists of a mixture of chariots, infantry and cavalry. The fourth unit is the long square of the northern half of the pit. Four square array of combination, composed of chariots, cavalry, and infantry, can be attacked, can be held, strictly ordered, unimpeachable.
Pit number three is the headquarters of pit number one and pit two.
There were no terracotta figures in the pit, and only the soil was found, which was presumed to be the result of a peasant uprising at the end of the qin dynasty.
