"Facing a war of injustice stirred up by an enemy nation, a benevolent monarch only defeats the opposing army, captures their king and aristocrats, and spares their soldiers and servants. They win over the people of the enemy nation with virtue, using their own character to halt the wars of the world; whereas those who defeat the opposing army, execute the king and aristocrats, and stack the heads of the enemy soldiers into mounds to deter the disobedient, they are tyrannical kings. They subdue bandits with the bodies of invaders, intimidate nations with the swords in their hands, and make the heroes of the world restrain their ambitions, daring not to raise arms in the mortal realm,"
