The Chu people attacked Song Dynasty to save Zheng. Song Gong will fight.
(The Chu army attacked Song State to rescue Zheng State. Song Xianggong is about to fight,)
Da Sima Gu admonished : "Heaven has abandoned the Shang Dynasty for a long time, and the emperor will prosper it, so it cannot be forgiven."
(Grand Sima Gongsun then dissuaded him and said, "Heaven has abandoned the Shang Dynasty for a long time." Yes, the king wants to revitalize it, but please forgive the state of Chu.")
Don't listen. On the first day of the eleventh month of winter, Song Gong and the Chu people fought at Hong.
(Xianggong did not listen. Song Xianggong and the Chu people fought at Hongshui.)
After the Song people formed a line, The people of Chu were not ready to help.
(The Song army has lined up to fight, but not all the Chu people have crossed the Hong River.)
Sima Said: "I have few of them, and they have not yet been able to help, so please attack them."
(Ziyu said: "The other side has many people and we have few, so take advantage of it." Since they have not all crossed the river, please attack them." The Duke said: "No."
(Song Xianggong said: "No." All Chu troops crossed the river, but they had not yet formed their formation, (Ziyu) reported to (Song Xianggong) again.)
The public said: "No.
" After it was established and then attacked, the Song army was defeated.
(Song Xianggong said: "It's not enough yet." (Chu army) set up their formation (Song army) before attacking Chu army. The Song army was defeated.)
The public was injured and the officials were killed.
(Song Dynasty) Duke Xiang was injured in the thigh, and the monarch's guards were killed. The people of the country blamed Duke Xiang of Song Dynasty. In ancient times, the army was not based on obstacles.

Although I have lost my country, I still can’t stand in line. ”
(Although I am the descendant of those who lost my country, (also)) Do not attack enemies who are not in formation.")
Ziyu said: "You don't know how to fight. I am the enemy of the enemy, and I am not listed in the narrow passes. God praises me. Isn't it okay to block it and encourage it? There is still fear!
(Ziyu said: "My lord does not know how to fight. Facing a powerful enemy, (the enemy) is not in a formation due to the difficult terrain. This is God helping us; hindering and attacking Isn't it possible for them? What else are there to be afraid of? After all, what’s the point of Ermao?
(And the powerful ones are all our enemies now. Even if they are very old people, they can be captured as long as they are captured, so what does it matter? An enemy with gray hair?
(Teaching soldiers to fight, making them know that retreat is a shame to inspire the courage to fight, teaching soldiers to master the fighting method, just to kill the enemy. (The enemy) is injured but not dead, why can't we kill them again?)
If you love someone who is seriously injured, then do not hurt them; if you love them, then treat them with humiliation.
(If you pity (them)) , unwilling) to hurt the wounded enemy again, it is better not to hurt them in the first place; to pity the gray-haired enemy, it is better to surrender (to the enemy))
The three armies can take advantage. Also, golden drums are used for sound and energy.
(The army moves based on favorable opportunities, and gongs and drums are used to inspire the courage of soldiers.)
If you use it to your advantage, you can block a narrow pass; if you use your voice to achieve your goals, you can use the drums to make a sound. ”
(Use the favorable opportunity, when (the enemy) encounters. If there are dangers, (we) can attack. It is possible to attack enemies who are not in line with a strong and grand voice to strengthen the soldiers' fighting spirit. >
