Are Song Xianggong's benevolence and Song Xianggong's benevolence wrong?

In the early Spring and Autumn Period, the old ceremony still existed, and there were rules to follow in the war. The two countries should declare war when fighting, and sneak attack should be looked down upon. You can't go to war when people hold a national mourning. Temporary death is only the end of the Chu army that is ready to cut Chen. The soldiers of the State of Jin led an army to invade Qi, and when they heard of the funeral in Qi, they immediately returned to Li, all of which were examples. Of course, there are also those who are reckless, such as Qin.

Song Xianggong is at war with Chu, Song Jun is in a row, and the Chu army is crossing the flood. The officer suggested that Song Xianggong attack it, but he didn't agree. Song Xianggong refused to attack again, because the Chu army had crossed the river and had not yet formed an array. It was not until the formation of the Chu army that the drums were beaten. Song Jun suffered a crushing defeat.

At that time, the chariot battle used a phalanx, and the array method was very important. Once the formation breaks up, like in National Mourning? Yu Ling array Xi line? , most of them? Keep your head and don't be arrogant? Yes In those days, Zhou Wuwang stopped to line up every ten steps, not for the sake of beauty. There are many examples of failure caused by incomplete fighting, such as the Chu army in the famous battle of Yanling.

Song Xianggong is observing the ancient meaning. Sima Fa recorded some ancient military ceremonies, one of which was? Make it clear that you believe in drums in cylinders? . Song Xianggong is a proud man. In his view, he is the old country of the Central Plains. After Shang Dynasty, Chu was a barbarian. Fighting against Chu, regardless of identity, isn't it lowering yourself to the level of your opponent?

After the defeat, China people complained about Song Xianggong. He argued: a gentleman does not hurt the wounded, capture the old, or attack an unformed enemy car. Although I am the king of national subjugation, I can't bear to violate these ancient etiquette.

So-called? Besides national subjugation? , refers to the descendants of the state-owned Shang Dynasty in Song Dynasty. When the Zhou people perished the Shang Dynasty, it was not only convenient for management, but also the virtue of survival to establish a new principality in their native land and gather the adherents together. These descendants refused to give up their status as adherents, and their manners and religions were different from those of Zhou people. Their cultural pride makes people in other countries look at them differently and think they are stubborn and pedantic.

In the jokes in the pre-Qin period, the protagonist is often the Song people, such as stories revealed by wild people. What is the best for you? There is also a famous story waiting for him. Han Feizi also told a story: I read about a Song poet in the book? A group of gentlemen? He tied a double belt on himself, and others were puzzled by his costume, so he said, It's in the book. ? Han Fei likes to satirize Song people. The style of Song people is exactly the same as that of Zi Han.

Song people secretly cherished the ambition of rejuvenating the country. The last poem in The Book of Songs, Yanwu, may be a poem by Song Xianggong. The poem praises the achievements of ancestors in cutting Chu, but also fondly misses the Shang Dynasty? Hehe, Jue Sheng, Zhuo Zhuo Jue Ling? . A few years before the Hongzhi War, there were six waterfowl flying upside down over the Song capital. Song Xianggong thinks this is an obvious omen that thinking can be realized. He overreached himself, was eager for success, or maybe he felt that time was running out.

Song's rejuvenation is just a dream. But, there is a descendant of Song Xianggong? Wang Su? . Confucius is a descendant of Xiang Gong. When he grows up, he will return to Song State and put on the clothes of his native country. Confucius attached importance to benevolence and ceremony, and had a legacy of Xiang Gong.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was not easy to choose between principle and contingency. Before the Battle of Chengpu, Jin Wengong asked the culprit and Yongji for advice. The culprit said that it doesn't matter if you cheat about the war. Please cheat. Yongji said that although counterfeiting can be successful for a while, it has broken the back road. Please use it correctly. Jin Wengong defeated the Chu army at the suggestion of the culprit and came back to enjoy the reward. The reason is that Yongji is talking about eternal benefits, and the culprit is talking about temporary things.

Even people like Jin Wengong no longer exist. Sun Tzu's art of war, expressly stipulated? Take advantage of others? Woods' The Art of War also made it clear? The rank is undecided? . When attacking Zheng, he passed the north gate of Tianzi City. He just took off his helmet to show his respect and didn't put on his armor as required by etiquette. Some people say that such a rude army is sure to lose the battle. Although the Qin people were defeated in that battle, they finally won the world.

Zuo Zhuan recorded the battle between Hong and Hong, and was selected as a middle school Chinese textbook, but the title was Debate on the Fish. Yu Zi is a person who refutes Song Xianggong. Listening to his clever words will definitely help children grow up. What the article didn't say was that Song Xianggong dared to fight against the powerful Chu State because he was a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and thought that benevolent people were invincible. This belief is indeed self-evident, self-evident.

Cutting and burial was very common in the Warring States period. But the ancient meaning is the ancient meaning after all, and the funeral has always been controversial. Liu Biao died, Lu Su said Sun Quan? Is it necessary to cut down this ruined country? , Sun Quan readily; When Emperor Wu of Song died, Ho Choi discouraged the Northern Wei Emperor from cutting the Song Dynasty, but the emperor refused. This is an example on both sides. As for the Sui Dynasty, Governor Gao Jiong beheaded Chen and returned after hearing of his funeral. As Wang Fuzhi said, it's just an act of being forced by the situation. (4)
