The martial arts of the Shang Dynasty was at its peak during the era of Emperor Gaozong Wuding.
Through a series of wars, Wuding expanded the territory of the Shang Dynasty by several times. And the general who led the army for Wuding was his wife.
According to the oracle bone inscriptions, there was a war on the northern border one summer. The two sides were at a stalemate. Fu Hao volunteered to lead the army. Wu Ding hesitated. After divination, he decided to send Fu Hao to raise an army. In the end, he won.
After that, Wuding made her the commander. From then on, she conquered the east and west, defeating more than 20 surrounding countries.
Fu Hao was not only able to lead troops to war, but also the main priest of the country. She was often ordered to preside over various ceremonies such as worshipping the heavens, worshipping ancestors, worshipping the divine spring, and was also an official of divination. He had presided over various types of sacrificial activities and used the theocracy to serve the rule of the Shang Dynasty.
After Fu Hao's death, Wu Ding was very sad. Every time there was a military operation, he would often pray for Fu Hao's help in the battle. This also reflected that Fu Hao's name was enough to deter the enemy. After Fu Hao's death, she was buried alone in a huge tomb and enjoyed the grand ceremony of being buried alone. This was rare in the Shang Dynasty.
Due to the frequent wars, there were very few traces left by the Shang Dynasty. However, among these few relics, a considerable portion belonged to a special woman.
