"The underground survival base. That's the writing of a very remarkable dynasty in ancient China, the seal script of the Qin Dynasty. Let me take a look. This is the history of the Qin Dynasty. He carried on the legacy of six generations, wielded long-term strategies to rule the world, swallowed up the two Zhou dynasties and destroyed the princes. He planted the seeds of great unification in the hearts of the Chinese people. His achievements surpassed those of the Three Sovereigns and his virtues matched those of the Five Emperors.
