1, there were chariots in the Xia Dynasty, and the members of the chariots were divided into left, right and royal. Combatants also have rewards and punishments. It can be seen that with the emergence of the country and its army, some systems for organizing and managing the army have emerged.
2. In Shang Dynasty, in addition to the powerful army of the royal family, various clans or countries also had a considerable number of troops. Wang Qili ordered five clans to keep watch, and many clans to follow dogs, Hou Kouzhou, and Oracle Bone Inscriptions, explaining the orders that the troops of these clans or Fang countries must obey.
3. According to archaeological excavations and Oracle Bone Inscriptions's records, the weapons and equipment of the Shang army mainly include cars, bows, arrows, arrowheads, spears, knives, axes, cymbals, dry shields, arrowheads, helmets and armour, among which arrowheads, spears, knives, axes and helmets are the main ones.
4. The main arms of the Western Zhou army were chariots. Chariots are usually driven by four horses. There are three soldiers in the car, and there are disciples with them, generally 12. Go, go, go. Weapons are still made of bronze, but they are more developed than Shang Dynasty.
The Western Zhou Dynasty developed on the basis of following the commercial system. At the beginning of Zhou dynasty, the royal family was powerful, and the military power was concentrated in the hands of Zhou Tianzi. There are "Youbang Zhujun, Shi Yu, Situ, Sima, Sikong, Yalu, Shi's, commander of thousands and centurion" and other official positions, but they are still not divided into civil and military positions.
