Chronicle of the Six States

太史公讀秦記，至犬戎敗幽王，周東徙洛邑，秦襄公始封為諸侯，作西畤用事上帝，僭端見矣。《禮》曰：「天子祭天地，諸侯祭其域內名山大川。」今秦雜戎翟之俗，先暴戾，後仁義，位在藩臣而臚於郊祀，君子懼焉。及文公踰隴，攘夷狄，尊陳寶，營岐雍之閒，而穆公修政，東竟至河，則與齊桓、晉文中國侯伯侔矣。是後陪臣執政，大夫世祿，六卿擅晉權，征伐會盟，威重於諸侯。及田常殺簡公而相齊國，諸侯晏然弗討，海內爭於戰功矣。三國終之卒分晉，田和亦滅齊而有之，六國之盛自此始。務在彊兵并敵，謀詐用而從衡短長之說起。矯稱蜂出，誓盟不信，雖置質剖符猶不能約束也。秦始小國僻遠，諸夏賓之，比於戎翟，至獻公之後常雄諸侯。論秦之德義不如魯衛之暴戾者，量秦之兵不如三晉之彊也，然卒并天下，非必險固便形勢利也，蓋若天所助焉。

When the Grand Historian read the Qin Records and came to the passage where the Quanrong defeated King You, the Zhou moved east to Luoyi, and Duke Xiang of Qin was first enfeoffed and set up the Western Altar to serve the High God, he saw the first signs of presumption. The Rites say: "The Son of Heaven sacrifices to Heaven and Earth; the feudal lords sacrifice to the renowned mountains and great rivers within their own domains." Yet Qin, mingling the customs of the Rong and Di, reveled in harshness and tyranny before speaking of benevolence and righteousness. Though it stood as a frontier vassal, it presumed to take part in the suburban rites; any gentleman would be uneasy. When Duke Wen crossed Mount Long, drove back the Yi and Di, honored Chen Bao, and established himself between Mount Qi and Yong — and when Duke Mu set his government in order and pushed his eastern frontier to the Yellow River — Qin could match the hegemonic lords of the Central States, such as Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin. After that, mere retainers held the reins of government; great officers drew hereditary stipends; and the Six Ministers usurped Jin's authority, leading campaigns and convening alliances, their power weighing heavier than that of the feudal lords. When Tian Chang murdered Duke Jian and took control of Qi as its chief minister, the other lords looked on and did nothing. From then on, all under Heaven competed only for victories in war. In the end, the Three Houses divided Jin, and Tian He likewise overthrew Qi and made it his own. The ascendancy of the Six States began here. Their whole endeavor was to build strong armies and swallow their rivals. Trickery became policy, and the rhetoric of the Vertical and Horizontal alliances — of weighing gains and losses — sprang up. Empty claims multiplied by the day, and oaths and alliances meant nothing. Even hostages and the splitting of covenant tallies could not hold anyone to an agreement. Qin began as a small, distant state, regarded by the Xia polities as a peripheral outsider and counted among the Rong and Di. Yet after Duke Xian it rose again and again to overawe the other lords. One might say that Qin's claim to virtue and righteousness did not even equal the brutality of Lu and Wei, and that its armies were weaker than those of the Three Jin states. Yet Qin still ended by uniting all under Heaven. This cannot be explained solely by rugged passes, stout walls, or favorable ground — it was as if Heaven itself had aided it.

或曰「東方物所始生，西方物之成孰」。夫作事者必於東南，收功實者常於西北。故禹興於西羌，湯起於亳，周之王也以豐鎬伐殷，秦之帝用雍州興，漢之興自蜀漢。

Some have said: "In the east, things are born; in the west, things come to maturity." To begin an undertaking, one must start in the southeast; to harvest its fruits, one most often ends in the northwest. Thus, Yu rose among the Western Qiang; Tang arose at Bo; the kings of Zhou attacked Yin from Feng and Hao; the Qin emperors rose by relying on Yongzhou; and the Han rose from Shu and Hanzhong.

秦既得意，燒天下詩書，諸侯史記尤甚，為其有所刺譏也。詩書所以復見者，多藏人家，而史記獨藏周室，以故滅。惜哉，惜哉！獨有秦記，又不載日月，其文略不具。然戰國之權變亦有可頗采者，何必上古。秦取天下多暴，然世異變，成功大。傳曰「法後王」，何也？以其近己而俗變相類，議卑而易行也。學者牽於所聞，見秦在帝位日淺，不察其終始，因舉而笑之，不敢道，此與以耳食無異。悲夫！

Once Qin had achieved its ambitions, it burned the Songs and Documents of all under Heaven — most of all the historical records kept by the feudal states, because those texts contained barbs and criticism. The Songs and Documents survived because they had been preserved in many private homes, but the historical records were kept only by the Zhou court and were therefore destroyed. How lamentable, how lamentable! Only the Qin records remained, but they lack dates and their text is too concise and incomplete. Yet the stratagems and expedients of the Warring States era also contain much that is worth adopting: why limit ourselves to ancient times? Qin conquered all under Heaven through brutal means, yet times change and circumstances alter, and its success was monumental. The tradition states: "Follow the later kings." Why is that? It is because the later kings are closer to our own era, and their customs and transformations resemble our own, that their doctrines are humble and easy to follow. Scholars are constrained by what they have heard. They see that Qin held the imperial throne for only a short time, fail to examine its full course from beginning to end, and so laugh it off entirely while not daring to speak of it. This is no different from accepting hearsay as truth. How sad!

余於是因秦記，踵春秋之後，起周元王，表六國時事，訖二世，凡二百七十年，著諸所聞興壞之端。後有君子，以覽觀焉。

Therefore, I drew upon the Qin records to continue after the Spring and Autumn Annals. Beginning with King Yuan of Zhou, I recorded the affairs of the Six States era and ended with the Second Emperor, a span of 270 years in all, setting down the principles of rise and decline that I have heard about. May future gentlemen view and observe this.
