Set an example to others(sha ji jing hou zhen she ren xin )

It's a common way for those who are good at using political tactics to deter people. Although it's dark, it's not easy to try. If we use this method properly, we can get the upper hand in life confrontation and take the initiative.

In the spring and Autumn period, Duke Jing of Qi appointed Liao Ju as general, led the army to attack the Allied forces of Jin and Yan, and sent his favorite minister Zhuang Jia to supervise the army. Before leaving, he made an agreement with Zhuang Jia that he would meet at yingmen at noon the next day. The next day, he arrived at the camp early and ordered to install the benchmark and drip basin for timing. The appointed time has passed, but Zhuang Jia is late. He sent people to urge him several times. It was not until dusk that Zhuang Jia arrived at the camp gate with Zui Rong. He asked why he didn't come to the barracks on time. Zhuang Jia didn't care. He just said that all his relatives and friends would come to hold a farewell party for him. Did he have to socialize? He was very angry, and denounced him as a minister of the state. He had the responsibility of supervising the army, but he only loved his own family and did not attach importance to national affairs. Zhuangjia thought it was a trivial matter, and he didn't take it for granted because he was a favorite of the king. In front of all the officers and men of the army, he called the judge of the army and asked, "what should be done according to the military law to delay time for no reason?" The judge replied, "it's time to chop!" He immediately ordered Zhuang Jia to be taken down. Zhuang Jia was so frightened that he shivered all over. When his entourage saw the situation, he rushed into the palace to report the situation to Qi Jinggong and asked him to send someone to help him. Before Jinggong's emissary arrived, he had ordered Zhuang Jia to be beheaded. All the officers and men of the army trembled when they saw that the general dared to kill the minister who violated the military order. Who dare not obey the general's order.

A good general should manage the army in such a way that the orders and decrees are strict. Otherwise, the orders will not work. The soldiers are like a pack of scattered sand. How can they fight across the battlefield? Therefore, sometimes we need to take some extraordinary measures to frighten people and boost morale.
