6.124

軍旅: Pronounced 力 + 舉 fanqie. Kong [Anguo]’s commentary on the Shangshu says: “旅 means a multitude.” The Zhouli says: “Five men make a wu; five wu make a liang; four liang make a zu; five zu make a lü.” The Shuowen says: “Five hundred men in an army. It is formed from 㫃 and 从.” 从 is pronounced 疾 + 容 fanqie, being the ancient character for 從. The character 軍 is formed from 勹 (pronounced like 包).
