In ancient China, conscription usually refers to the recruitment or transfer of soldiers, laborers and tributes. Expropriation is also a common means, which refers to the expropriation of property, food and other items by the state, landlords or officials. In addition, the sign also means conquest, conquest, conquest and so on.

In ancient times, land expropriation was generally used for foreign conquest and expansion, or for internal construction and maintenance of social order. For example, Qin Shihuang unified the six countries and conquered Langya, Vietnam and other places through overseas expeditions, that is, he expanded his territory through foreign conquest. During the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, they often cruised to gain more land, wealth and labor. In the Northern Song Dynasty, in order to balance the domestic economy, Wang Anshi adopted measures such as the Young Crop Law and the Tax Equalization Law to regulate production and circulation.

Symbols have great influence on individuals and society. Personally, conscription and requisition often lead to labor shortage, heavy economic burden and limited production capacity of farmers, craftsmen and other groups. In society, the loss caused by expropriation will have a great impact on people's lives and will also have a negative impact on social harmony and stability. Therefore, when the country needs to requisition human and material resources, it must pay attention to avoid excessive requisition, safeguard people's interests and maintain social harmony and stability.
