The tribal soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty refer to the bloody military organization composed of the Man Yi Rong Di who lived in the "Ye",as a tribal group that was conquered or subordinated,Man Yi Rong Di belonged to the existence of the " Adventive tribe",they have the duty to perform military service to the royal family of Zhou and the vassals,the so-called "driving adventive tribe to fight" is a phenomenon in which the ruler drives the ethnic tribe to be conquered or subordinated to fight.This article intends to study the relevant content of the tribal soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty from the perspective of military service with the starting point of "driving adventive tribe to fight".In the history of human society,the relationship between "host and guest" has existed widely,"host" generally refers to the dominant conqueror,and "guest" mainly refers to the conquered or surrendered.Due to the slow social development of some of the governed,they are still in the tribal social form,so they are also called "adventive tribe".In the national system of the Zhou Dynasty,there were a large number of Man Yi Rong Di tribes conquered or subordinated by the Zhou royal family and vassal states,compared with the rulers represented by the Zhou royal family and the vassal states,they belong to the existence of the "adventive tribe".From the records of unearthed documents and handed down documents,the phenomenon of "driving adventive tribe to fight" in the Western Zhou and Spring and Autumn Periods is universal.As a kind of military labor service based on the clan as a whole,the "driving adventive tribe to fight" is an important expression of the Assigned labor System in the military field,it reflects the tradition of the early countries designating certain people for a certain service,therefore,the military service of the tribe soldiers composed by Man Yi Rong Di has three basic characteristics:one is taking the clan as a whole for service assessment,another is hereditary commitment,and last is "super-economic coercion" as the basis of service.During the Spring and Autumn Period,the new changes in the relationship between the country and the wild changed the traditional military exploitation methods against the wild soldiers in the "Ye",and the tribal soldiers began to decline.As of the Warring States Period,the Man Yi Rong Di in the "Ye" of the era of "Bian Hu Qi Min" completed the transformation to the county and county households in the regional administrative organization,under the new enlistment system,they began to serve the country as a "Qi Min",and the tribe soldiers who were once related to blood eventually came to an end.The existence of the phenomenon of "driving adventive tribe to fight" in the Zhou Dynasty is closely related to the common existence of blood communities in the Western Zhou and Spring and Autumn Periods,the blood relationship in the "Ye" is more strong,which makes the phenomenon of uniformly distributing military service against the Man Yi Rong Di in the"Ye",this is the fundamental reason for the bloody tribe soldiers to survive in the Western Zhou and Spring and Autumn Periods.At the same time,the undeveloped productive forces and lagging social division of labor in the "Ye" are another important reason for the existence of tribal soldiers.The existence of the phenomenon of "driving adventive tribe to fight" in the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period showed that tribal soldiers should be an important part of the military power of the Zhou Dynasty.Therefore,the study of the tribal soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty has some reference value to the study of the military system of the Zhou Dynasty.
