Before we understand this problem, we have to mention a school-Yin and Yang School. Zou Yan is the founder of the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements. After carefully studying various theories at that time, he skillfully combined the five elements with the change of dynasty according to the things people came into contact with, forming a set of theories that the five elements were matched with the five virtues and the five virtues were unified. It can be said that Zou Yan's spread of his theory while traveling around the world is very popular, which is different from that of Confucius. In modern words, Zou Yan's customer demand analysis is more thorough and his products are more convincing. Because the concepts mentioned in his theory are things that ordinary people can touch every day. Yin and Yang scholars were almost the most influential scholars at that time. You know, Sima Tan, the father of Sima Qian, didn't even have a famous strategist when he summed up the Six Essentials.
In Zou Yan's view, the emperor admired Tude. Tude didn't lag behind, and Dayu replaced it with Mude. Mu De declined in Xia Dynasty, Shang Dynasty was destroyed by Jin Deke, and then burned. Then Zhou is the virtue of fire, and fire is afraid of water, so it is natural to use water to overcome it. This is a truth that ordinary people can figure out. Since Qin wants to replace it, it is natural to choose Shuide.
So what is the corresponding color of the five virtues? 【 Emperor soil, so the color is still yellow, and when Yu is here, the color is full of wood, so the color is, when Tang is here, the color is full of gold, so the color is still white, and when he is here, the color is full of anger, so the color is still red. 】-Lu Chunqiu. Qin dynasty was hydrophilic, so "clothes and flags were all black."
This is the famous "five virtues begin at the end", and the dynasty changes for more than 1000 years are based on this truth.
In addition, the Eastern Han Dynasty recorded in the Annals of Han Law, "Today, Qin changed to Zhou Dynasty, and Shuide. Yesterday, Duke Wen went hunting and won the Black Dragon. This is the virtue of water. " Qin Wengong once caught a black dragon when he was out hunting. And this is the symbol of water virtue in the five elements.
Including the later renaming of the Yellow River as Deshui, is also a concrete manifestation of determining Qin as a water virtue.
To sum up, Qin people are still black because Qin has the determination to replace the Zhou Dynasty, and the people are all dressed in black, which shows their great determination!
Now, if a team's goals can be consistent from top to bottom, then the team's combat effectiveness will be excellent. Besides, Qin is United as one.
