春秋时期吴楚鸡父之战相关问题考论

On the Wu-Chu War of Ji Fu during the Spring and Autumn Period

鸡父之战只应包括伍鸡"为长壑而洍之"和吴与楚联军"战于鸡父"两个阶段,吴人入郹之役与吴楚"战于鸡父"时空悬隔,不宜视作鸡父之战的一部分。鸡父之战发生在位于淮河北岸凤台县境内的古州来、鸡父一带,并非发生于淮河以南的寿县或固始县境。鸡父之战之所以被清人视为"入郢之兆",根本原因在于吴国通过鸡父之战,从此牢牢掌控了州来这一淮域重镇,淮河中游成为吴师入郢的前沿基地。

This paper,based on the historical materials of the Wu-Chu war data recorded by Zhao Gong in Zuo Zhuanfor twenty-three years,combined with the related records of Lv Shi Chun Qiu·Cha Wei and Tsinghua’bamboo slips Xi Nian,to infer that the battle of Ji Fu should only include the two stages of Wu Ji’s＂dug around the state and led the Huai River around the city for a week and then imported into Huaihe’s long ditch＂and the＂fighting with Ji Fu＂in the joint army of Wu and Chu,the battle of the Wu people was separated from that the War of Ji Fu of Wu and Chu,should not be regarded as part of the battle of Ji Fu.The battle of Ji Fu took place in the ancient state of Huaihe County in the north shore of Fengtai county and the area of Ji Fu instead of in Shouxian or Gushi County South of Huaihe.The reason why the Ji Fu war was regarded by the Qing people as＂the sign of entering Ying＂was due to the battle of Ji Fu,Wu firmly controlled the Zhou Lai’s Huai District,and the middle reaches of Huaihe became the frontier base for Wu’s entry into Ying.
