"The overseas foreign countries like Vietnam, Cambodia, Korea, Thailand, India, Japan and the various small island countries in

the Pacific are separated from us by mountains and seas. Their lands would not
produce enough for us to justify conquering them. Their peoples would not usefully serve us if we were to include them into our empire. If they were foolish enough to disturb our borders, it would be unfortunate
for them. If they gave us no trouble and we invaded them unnecessarily, it would be unfortunate for us
On the other hand, the barbarians who threaten China from the north and the west are always a danger along our frontiers. We should train our best generals and soldiers to defend ourselves from these northern
and western barbarians
am concerned that future emperors might abuse China's wealth and power and be tempted to pursue short-lived military glories. Let me sharply remind them that starting wars without good reason is forbidden."
