Chapter 245: The Heart of King Mi Bing of Jing and Song Dynasty (3)

After leaving Mo Zi, a smile that could no longer be curbed appeared on his face.

After fighting tonight, the Mo family will be famous all over the world, and gunpowder can also spread all over the world.

He would not hide gunpowder as a secret sprout for life, but he would rather spread gunpowder and spread it in Jiuzhou.

The Warring States Period has arrived, and war will always continue. This thing will always come in handy. Combined with the bronze smelting technology at this time, if the brass and ripe iron are spread out, the gunpowder era will come within decades.

Rows of infantry and flashing copper cannons will smash the last survival soil of the nobles: can the nobles who have been trained for twenty years and the powerful four-horse chariots with strong impact stop the roar of gunpowder?

If not, when a nobleman is comparable to ten soldiers who have been trained for three months, how can he maintain their privileges?

The people do not need aristocrats, nor do the kings need aristocrats, so the explosion of gunpowder tonight is an elegy for the nobles and the aristocratic spirit.

After going down the city tower, without waiting for the time being, there were already soldiers, peasants and soldiers guarding the city asking loudly.

"Is it because the Chu people have already lost?"

"Is it true that the people from Peiyi captured the King of Chu?"

"There are too many rumors. We will believe your Xuanyi tribe's words!"

"Yes, say something!"

Many people stood beside Shi holding spears and leaning on spears. Those who followed Shi came out were used to naturally building some stones that guarded the city into a high platform, allowing Shi to stand up.

Before arrival, the people had been informed of the outcome of the night by the Messenger who reported the news.

The two nobles of Chu died in battle, and the King of Chu was captured and agreed to form an alliance.

Behind this news, there is also the feat of the charity army in Pei County capturing the King of Chu, which has spread throughout Shangqiu.

Until now, let alone the King of Chu, even the Emperor of Zhou was shot.

However, it has never happened that the common people can capture the kings of great powers by tying through the formation - those little viscounts who can be captured by a hundred people, and the king personally farms the land and weaves the cloth of the king's wife himself is not included.

The people of Shangqiu have experienced several huge psychological twists and turns since the battle to defend the city.

At first, because of the Mohist family's loyalty and the rightful obligation to defend the city, they chose to defend the city.

Then Xuanyi tribe said that the Chu people would increase taxes and labor, and they firmly defended the city.

After the granary was burned, they were at risk of changing their children and eating broken bones and cooking, they hesitated whether to defend the city.

Before the coup inside the city, the propaganda of Xuanyi Department made them understand power and obligations, and they continued to defend the city after Song Gong agreed to the change.

But there are prerequisites for defending the city: within three months, if the Chu people still do not retreat, they will choose to give up defending the city.

Under such psychological twists and turns, the news that the Pei County Yishi captured the news that the King of Chu forced the alliance was even more important and shocking.

Since they have accepted the publicity of power and obligations by the Mohist people, they have to think about why the people in Pei County, far away in Sishui, come to defend the city? Why do they do this?

Under the feudal system, let alone Peiyi, even the fiefs of other nobles of the Song State, the king could not move.

If the Chu people really broke the city and met any conditions such as labor service, the only ones who were hurt would be the people of Shangqiu, which had nothing to do with the Yishishi of Pei County, far away in Sishui.

Many people may think that Peixian Yishi came with the Mo people, and they were also members of the Mo family, so the reason for benefiting the world is the reason.

But many people also know that the Mo family has been promoting that the Yishishi in Pei County is not the Mo family, they are just the people, not the Mo people, so they will not use the benefit of the world as a reason to go to war.

Even though the news came from the Mozhe, these people still didn't believe it and were still a little suspicious. After all, this happiness came too suddenly.

When the right happens, if the people habitually feel it is appropriate, it can be used as the direction for them when they are confused.

So when they climbed to a high place habitually, the noisy people quickly calmed down.

They still held spears in hand and still wanted to squeeze forward, get closer and listen more clearly.

Shi tear off the ink-colored scarf on his head, waved it and said, "What you hear is true!"

"My disciples of the Mo family and the Pei County Yishi worked together to penetrate the formation. In the end, the Pei County Yishi was more lucky and captured the King of Chu!"

"You don't have to worry about changing your child in three months, let alone worry about our Mo family who can only defend the city but cannot prevent you from being hungry!"

After saying that, there were bursts of cheers after bursts of cheers under the city walls. These people who guarded the city cheered not only that the risk of starvation disappeared in three months, but also cheered for hope and a new life.

The few months of defending the city were not only the years of defending the city, but also the few months of the organized people listening to the publicity of Xuanyi Department.

In the future, for the first time, it was presented to them like a scroll, and I only regretted that the Chu people could not use it for the time being.

Those techniques of fertilizing fields, those methods of cool cotton cloth, and those rights and obligations are only mentioned, and everything becomes undesirable because of the siege of the city.

When the siege finally ended, all this seemed to be right in front of you, just in front of you.

But while excited, he calmed down and asked, "So, but now the granary is burned and the farming period has been missed. Now even if the Chu people retreat, how will we live?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people who were originally cheering were instantly cold.

Yes, the Chu people have left, and life has to continue, but how should life continue?

The grain was concentrated in the Mohist family, and Song Gong's grain was burned a lot. Even though he wrote a contract to defend the city and then repay it, the new taxes had not been paid yet, so where can there be food in the palace to repay it?

Even if the Chu people retreated, the wheat fields burned to stop the Chu people could not come back. How many months will there be in winter? What should I do before harvest next year?

Shi was silent, waiting for everyone to change from ecstatic excitement to calm despair, until the scene was suppressed and silent again, Shi finally spoke.

"Peiyi has used the method of rotating two ripening. Last year, there was a good harvest and a good harvest of wheat and beans."

"It's just that Pei County has its own benefits from the people of Pei County, and it's impossible to give it to you for nothing. Although my Mo family has farmland, the number is not enough for the entire Shangqiu. Even if we can benefit the world without taking care of ourselves, let alone profit, it's too little after all, like a cup of water and a drop in the car!"

When he said that when Peiyi was harvesting, the people suddenly found a floating wooden board in despair. They couldn't help but think: "Yes, the Mo family is in Pei County, and Peiyi is the Mo family. There is a good harvest there, and the Mo family is thinking about benefiting the world. Can't they mobilize food from there?"

This seemed like the hope of the wooden board in the flood, and after being shattered by the words, everyone fell into despair again.

The Yishi of Pei County has helped Shangqiu defeat the Chu people and captured the King of Chu. They are not Mo people. Can they expect them to benefit the world without seeking profit and help themselves?

Gong Song did not have the ability to collect taxes that far away, nor did he have the ability to adjust, otherwise he would not have been forced to this extent by the nobles.

After everyone fell into despair again, Shi was like charcoal that had not yet burned out in the fire, and the dust on the surface was blown by the wind and revealed a flashing light of hope again.

"However, the Mohist family is always trusted by the people when they are in Pei County. The Mohist family can provide guarantees to let Pei County borrow grain from you."

"Peiyi is not far from here. The transportation is organized by the ink van. Shangqiu will be dispatched throughout the journey and will be completed soon."

"Even if there are not many, it can be enough to support the harvest next year. Before that, we, the Mo family, may still be responsible for distributing food. I think you can trust us, right?"

After he finished speaking, everyone whispered: "Of course I can trust it!"

"Who can't trust your Mo family?"

"If the Lord distributes it, we can't believe it, but if you distribute it, we can trust it!"

Everyone shouted loudly, and thought of the ink chariots, which were used in the Huai and Si land, which was suitable for transportation.

As long as you have the strength and spend more than ten days, you can always transport food from Pei County.

There are not so many ink carts, but there are still craftsmen who can do it.

As for strength, who doesn’t have it?

When everyone was happy, they got the opportunity to gradually dye Shangqiu ink, so they pressed down on their hands and calmed down first.

Everyone's hearts experienced a cycle of hope and despair and hope, and they couldn't help but feel worried, thinking to themselves, Is there anything wrong with it?

What they guessed was right. Not only was there something wrong, but this inappropriate thing was the topic that they really wanted to talk to everyone.

Shi stretched out his finger and pointed to the noble's mansion in the city, and smiled and said, "It is said that if you borrow money, you will have interest. If the nobles lend money, you can get 30,000 yuan a year."

"The people of Pei County are naturally different from the nobles. Everyone is digging food from the soil. Even if they are in Peiyi and you are in Shangqiu, they are always closer to the nobles than you. Are you right?"

Seeing everyone nodding, Shi said again: "Since I said that, I think everyone in Peixian came to Shangqiu to help the war, they also had this idea: everyone is a gangster, so they are naturally close. What harm will the Chu people break the city, so what will happen to the nobles? It is just because you gangsters are going to be damaged, so the young men in Peixian will break through the enemy formation and capture the King of Chu."

"This is what our Mohist school calls love both sides. Who do you love both sides? Of course, they love both sides. The common farmers love both sides. The nobles love both sides. This is the principle of love both sides."

"It's like, when you see a person being killed, you will feel soft-hearted. But when you see a cow and sheep being killed, you will feel less soft-hearted. People cannot love cattle and sheep first, so of course, the common farmers must love the common farmers first."

"Are you close to the peasant soldiers of the Chu people outside the city? Or are you closer to the six ministers of the Song Company? Think about it."

"Although those people outside the city are flirting with Chu Yu that you don't understand, what's the difference between them and you?"

"In spring, you must first cultivate the fields and public fields of gentlemen before you can cultivate your own home. In summer, like you, you must be recruited to repair palace walls and take on labor. In autumn, you must first complete the public fields and private fields of gentlemen before you can be busy with your own. In winter, the cold wind is cold and you will follow the chariots in the fields."
