The Battle of Xuge (Chinese: 繻葛之战) took place in 707 BC, when the Zhou dynasty invaded its vassal the neighboring State of Zheng.[1] The defeat of the Zhou forces, representing the Son of Heaven, destroyed any residual prestige that the Zhou court had since establishing itself in Luoyang, and allowed for the rise of the feudal states that would characterise the Spring and Autumn period.

This battle is an early example of a pincer movement being employed against an enemy.
