e guan man ying（a full record of crimes and misdeeds）
At the end of the Shang Dynasty, King Zhou of Shang was very cruel.
There was a vassal named Ji Chang, who stood for benevolence against the tyranny of King Zhou, and he had him arrested. Later, his son Ji Fa joined forces with the vassals to fight against King Zhou. The army crossed the Yellow River and marched to the commercial capital, where it met the king’s army at Muye. The popularity of Ji Fa led to a great deal of support from the people, who hated King Zhou’s army, resulting in a great defeat for Zhou, who burned himself to death and the Shang Dynasty fell.
Before Ji Fa led the army against King Zhou, Ji Fa made an oath to the whole army, listing Zhou’s crimes, saying that the evil he had done had come to an end, and that he should be punished for his crimes. Call on everyone to work together for the sake of the people.
