Why are the scholars of the Spring and Autumn Period full of gentlemanly demeanor?

He was humiliated several times, and in order to keep his pedantic creed, he was fierce and passive in political and military struggles. Eager for quick success and quick profit is where he failed, he also said that Qi Huan Gong used the slippery socks bridge Guan Zhong to dominate for 20 years, and not only the second, which proves that he is stupid and stupid and does not understand benevolence and righteousness in place, and abuses benevolence and righteousness on the enemy country and even the enemy army, but he treats others with credit and leniency, or he is not clear about his own strength. But Song Xianggong refused to bury his head in development.

The Song State is a small country, Song Xianggong lost the battle, but he ranked among the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, if the Song Dynasty has the strength of the later Qin State, and then talk about benevolence and righteousness, he will inevitably be called the king, and he can't wait for Song Xianggong to unrealistically talk about the gentlemanly demeanor of ancient times in the troubled times of the Spring and Autumn Period.

Xianggong was defeated by Hong, and the gentleman may think that it is too much, hurting China's etiquette and righteousness, and Song Xiangzhi is also polite. At the same time, Sima Qian believed that Song Xianggong was one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period.

From a modern point of view, Song Xianggong unrealistically talked about the gentlemanly demeanor of ancient times in the troubled times of the Spring and Autumn Period, was passive everywhere in political and military struggles in order to keep pedantic creeds, and abused benevolence and righteousness on the enemy country and even the enemy army, so that he was humiliated several times. The Song State is a small country, and Song Xianggong lost the battle, proving that he does not understand benevolence and righteousness in place, or that he is not clear about his own strength. But Song Xianggong refused to bury his head in development, and he also said that Qi Huan Gong Guan Zhong had been hegemonic for 20 years, and he couldn't wait.

Rushing for quick success and quick profit is where he failed, but being honest and lenient with others made him one of the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period.

I also think he's a treacherous person, but he's just too heavy-hearted, thank you.

The Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons refer to the five princes who successively dominated the Spring and Autumn Period, but there have always been different opinions about which five monarchs they refer to. Among them, there are two more famous ones: one is said to be the Duke of Qi Huan, the Duke of Jin Wen, the Duke of Song Xiang, the Duke of Qin Mu, and the King of Chuzhuang, and the other is the Duke of Qi Huan, the Duke of Wen of Jin, the King of Chuzhuang, the King of Wu, and the King of Yue, Goujian.

At present, there is no standard and clear conclusion in the field of historiography. But in all the accounts, there are three people: Duke Qi Huan, Duke Wen of Jin, and King Chuzhuang. As for why Song Xianggong is also considered one of the five hegemons The definition of the Spring and Autumn Period overlord is whether to gather all the princes to build an altar and an alliance, he has done it, so it is.

In the turbulent times of the Spring and Autumn Period, he unrealistically talked about the gentlemanly manners of the ancient times, was passive in political and military struggles in order to keep pedantic creeds, and abused benevolence and righteousness on the enemy country and even the enemy army, so that he was humiliated several times. Song is a small country, Song Xianggong lost the battle, proving that he still does not understand benevolence and righteousness, or that his own strength is not clear, if Song has the strength of the later Qin State, and then talk about benevolence and righteousness, he will be the king, and not only two, but unwilling to bury his head in development, he also said that Qi Huan Gong Guan Zhong 20 years of hegemony, but he can't wait. Rushing for quick success and quick profit is where he failed, but treating people with credit made him one of the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period.

There are two versions of the Spring and Autumn Five Tyrants, the first is that they include Song Xianggong and Qin Mugong; Personally, I am more convinced that the second statement is that Duke Huan of Qi, Duke Wen of Jin, King Zhuang of Chu, Lu Lu (Fucha's father), Gou Jian.

Song Xianggong, the second son of Song Huangong, surnamed Zi, named Zifu (BC?) Year – 637 BC), one of the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, was the monarch of the Song Kingdom, reigning from 650 BC to 637 BC.

The Spring and Autumn period was from 770 BC to 476 BC.

The Warring States period was from 475 BC to 221 BC.

In this way, it should be a person from the Spring and Autumn Period.

Song Xianggong had helped the state of Qi, which had fallen into civil strife due to the death of Duke Xiaobai of Qi, who was the overlord of the early Spring and Autumn period. Therefore, Song Xianggong is a figure in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Song Xianggong was a native of the Spring and Autumn Period.

One of the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, you say it was the Spring and Autumn Period or the Warring States Period.

One of the Five Tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period, people are more pedantic and a joke in history.

In fact, the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period did not want anything, because the wars of various countries in the Spring and Autumn Period can be summed up in five words: "Spring and Autumn Rules", and the specific rules are as follows.

The first is to make an appointment. After the battle is fought within the specified time, they will withdraw, and they will not engage in sneak attacks.

The second is to finalize the place of operation. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the combat locations were generally selected to fight on the border line, which was the most routine operation in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Again, it's about etiquette. When the two armies are fighting, they must first arrange their troops in formation, and after the two sides have set up their formations, they will send envoys to each other to have a polite dialogue with each other, and after reaching an agreement with each other, they will return to their camps after the battle is over.

Finally, pay attention to the rules. For example, if the two sides are at war, they will not be killed. If the opponent does not set up a good formation, he cannot attack. You can't let the same person get hurt repeatedly, for example, if the other person is already injured, then you can't continue to hit him. Also, you can't take a gray-haired person captive.

Moreover, the soldiers who participated in the war during the Spring and Autumn Period all belonged to a rank of "scholars" in the nobility. Since they belonged to the nobility, their war was a war between the nobility. Since it is a war between nobles, it is necessary to be decent, to have an aristocratic demeanor, a gentleman's demeanor, politeness, and abide by the rules.

Therefore, the wars of the Spring and Autumn Period generally did not invade the opponent's land and plunder the opponent's property, and even if they were victorious, they would not take advantage of the victory to pursue.

There is a very interesting example, after the battle of Jin, Chu and Yanling, the Jin army was defeated, and in the process of escaping, their chariot fell into the pit and could not get out, so the Chu army came to help them pull the chariot out, and then let the Jin army continue to escape, but the Chu army did not chase, which seems a bit incredible today.

Another example is the battle of Zhaoling in Qi and Chu, when the state of Qi and the states of Lu, Song, Chen, and Zheng united to attack the state of Chu. This rumor was heard by the state of Chu, so the state of Chu sent an envoy to negotiate with the state of Qi, but the state of Qi found various reasons to prevaricate the envoy of the state of Chu, and finally the two sides could not get along, so the two countries of Qi and Chu prepared to start fighting.

The two sides began to confront each other after bringing the men and horses to Zhaoling, and before the battle, Qi Huan Gong suggested that the army should be reviewed first, and the Chu side also agreed. Then Duke Qi Huan put pressure on the commander of the state of Chu, but the commander of the state of Chu did not accept him. In the end, Qi Huan Gong said that the army was for the sake of eternal friendship between the two countries, and this time the commander of Chu State picked up the conversation, saying that it was also the wish of Chu State to hope that the two countries would be friendly.

So in the end, the Battle of Zhaoling was canceled, and the two countries signed an alliance, and this battle became a "war without fighting".

The reason why this situation arises is precisely because the Spring and Autumn period countries pay attention to principles, pay attention to etiquette, and will not take the initiative to infringe on each other, plunder each other's property, etc., it is precisely the rules that restrain them.

I'm on the same floor.

Answering your question, because the Warring States period was a period of annexation war, "benevolence" was to ask the ruler to implement benevolent government, but at that time, the ruler needed to enhance the national strength through reform, and needed to establish a feudal land system, so it was Legalism that was admired. This can be seen from Qin Shi Huang's final agreement to the Six Kingdoms.

From high to low. The Spring and Autumn period was generally relatively peaceful, and Confucius's ideas could still be accepted, and during this period, he was not the great secretary of the Lu state. During the Warring States period, wars were frequent, and its "benevolence" was no longer the demand of the times.
