《墨子·68章 迎敌祠》
其它百官各奉其职，于是上庙，在庙门击鼓，门的右边插上旗，左边插上旌，门的左右角布置铭识，兵士们发射三箭，祈祷胜利，各军兵都一应齐备。仪式结束后下太庙，出外等候登上城门台观望城郊情景。
百官具御，乃斗，鼓于门，右置旗，左置旌于隅练名。射参发，告胜，五兵咸备，乃下，出挨，升望我郊。
The other officials each performed their duties. Then they went to the temple, beat the drum at the temple gate, inserted a flag on the right side of the gate, and inserted a flag on the left side. They placed inscriptions on the left and right corners of the gate. The soldiers fired three arrows and prayed for victory. The troops were all ready. After the ceremony, they left the Taimiao and waited outside to climb the city gate to look at the situation in the suburbs.
