Many historians believe that the so-called "five tyrants" should be empty, not real:
In the early Spring and Autumn Period, some areas were closed.
1. Jin ruled alone for hundreds of years (632-597 BC, 589-506 BC). During this period, the state of Jin basically enjoyed the right to command the princes.
After Jin Wengong's hegemony, he experienced the succession of Duke Xiang of Jin, the loss of Duke Jing of Jin, and the monopolization of the Central Plains by Duke Mourn of Jin.
2. Jin Wengong's great-great-grandson, Jin Mougong, was outstanding in political strategy, and was second to none in talent, achievement and conduct, which caused great controversy in later generations.
3. The regional hegemony constructed by Zheng, Song, Qin and Wu Yue is difficult to compare with Qi, Jin and Chu in scale, influence and achievement.
4. Qi Huangong, Jin Wengong, Duke Xiang of Jin, Chu Zhuangwang, Duke Daogong of Jin, Fu Cha, Gou Jian and many other governors have achieved this important symbol of hegemony, far exceeding the number of the five tyrants.
Among them, the state of Jin alone has dominated for a hundred years, and it has joined many alliances, almost monopolizing the number of five tyrants; And Fu Cha was finally destroyed by Gou Jian.
