Ying Zheng succeeded to the throne at the age of thirteen, and his cemetery has been under construction since he acceded to the throne. The emperor's habit of building cemeteries has existed since ancient times, but only a few people like Ying Zheng began to build cemeteries in the early days of his reign. Ying Zheng is very strict with his own cemetery. After all, he is an emperor who claims that his achievements are comparable to those of three emperors and five emperors. It was because of his high requirements that it took 39 years to build the first and second Qin Shihuang Mausoleum. Moreover, when Qin Shihuang died, the cemetery was not completely completed. Later, Qin Ershi continued to build for more than a year after he ascended the throne.
The rule of the Qin dynasty was short, but it took more than ten years before and after it was completely destroyed. Just when the Qin Dynasty was about to perish, the finally completed Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor suffered social unrest. According to later scholars' research, Xiang Yu destroyed the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang on a large scale after leading his army into Guanzhong, which can be proved from the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit, a part of the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. This terracotta warrior was discovered by chance by villagers who dug wells in 74. In the subsequent archaeological research, archaeologists found that the pits 1 and No.2 of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses had traces of burning.
There are four known pits in the Terracotta Warriors, and the first pit was found. Among them, a large number of terracotta warriors and horses were unearthed in pits 1 to 3, and no terracotta warriors and horses were found in pit 4. According to the research and speculation of archaeologists, the fourth pit itself should not have been built. Although there are no other cultural relics in the pit except the Terracotta Warriors, their discovery and excavation are still enough to shock the world. This is because these terracotta warriors and horses are not the same but thousands of faces, and the faces, expressions and figures of each terracotta warrior are different. Not only that, these terracotta warriors and horses are all colored, but they will disappear because of oxidation only ten seconds after they are unearthed.
Whether it is the construction scale or the production technology of the Terracotta Warriors, it shows that the technological level of the Qin Dynasty is very high, so the Terracotta Warriors are also rated as? The eighth wonder of the world? . The famous Terracotta Warriors have many fans in China and abroad. Not long ago, a blogger restored Qin Shihuang with high technology, which attracted the attention of many netizens.
