Zhang Liang had no success in leading the war, so why was he listed as one of the ten ancient military philosophers? And what about the Bingsheng Yasheng?

First of all, let me correct you. They are the Ten Philosophers of Military Strategies and the Ten Philosophers of Martial Arts Temple, not the Ten Military Philosophers. This is not a wording, but that future generations should respect history and not modify it at will, which can easily be misunderstood. It also distorts historical truth.

The person who is here is not a soldier or a sage! The military sage is Sun Wu, and the inferior sage is Mencius. The Soldier Saint is easy to understand. Yasheng, many people don’t understand the meaning. To put it in layman’s terms, it’s the second best. Just like champion and runner-up, runner-up can be understood as second, second, second and so on.

Because Confucius’ Confucianism had a profound influence on later generations, later generations respected him as a saint. Mencius also promoted Confucianism and conducted more in-depth research. In order to commemorate Mencius’ contribution, later generations respectfully called him Asia. Holy.

Therefore, I hope that friends who ask questions can respect historical facts, ask questions rigorously, and not mislead readers.

The origin of the Ten Philosophers of the Wumiao Temple was established during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, in order to commemorate the ministers who had made outstanding contributions in the past dynasties. And Zhang Liang is one of them.

The main god in the center: Jiang Ziya

The five people on the left are: Bai Qi, Han Xin, Zhuge Liang, Li Jing, Li Ji

The five people on the right are: Zhang Liang, Sun Wu, Tian Ruju, Le Yi, Wu Qi

The establishment of the Martial Arts Temple aims to allow future generations to remember the achievements of their ancestors and their benevolence and justice for the country and the people! For future generations to look up and worship.

As for Zhang Liang not leading the troops in the war, but being included in the martial arts temple, it is easy to understand.

It does not mean that charging into battle is the only way to conquer a city or territory. If the judging criteria were like this, Xiang Yu would always be number one, but he was not selected for the Martial Arts Temple. Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang and others are not eligible to be selected.

From among these ten people, it is not difficult to find the selection criteria for the Martial Arts Temple: first of all, they must be loyal to the emperor and patriotic until death. We must have the moral commanding heights of benevolence, justice, propriety, and trust; those who are unbenevolent and unjust, start chaos and end up giving up, and waver from side to side will definitely not be selected.

Furthermore, since it is martial arts, it must be related to military strategy, and it is not narrowly focused on military force. Face-to-face competition is called recklessness. Wu, explain the text and understand the characters, only by stopping the fighting can one become Wu! It refers more to martial ethics, martial soul, and a kind of spirit.

Also, Zhang Liang and Han Xin jointly edited and annotated "Han Xin's Art of War", making outstanding contributions to the military civilization of later generations. And he followed Liu Bang in the southern and northern wars, making plans and making plans without any regrets. When you are successful and famous, you will be retired again!

A lifetime of dedication, coupled with his high moral character, was enough for him to be selected into the Martial Arts Temple.
