Now that the Mohist charity army has broken through Wucheng, the plan of King Yi of Yue to attack Teng from Ni had to change, and the army of Yue had to go to Wucheng.

During the political affairs discussion not long ago, the temple district advised King Yi of Yue, explaining the importance of forcing the Mohist charity master to regain Wucheng first.

The temple district dissuaded, "The great country is responsible for the righteousness and the leader of the alliance. Therefore, the princes are greedy and fearful of fighting, and have no second thoughts. Believe in doing righteousness and righteousness to achieve destiny, and the small country is in love with it. Believe in and cannot know, and righteousness has no place to establish. Who will not disintegrate the princes in all directions?"

Since Yue Kingdom is the overlord of the Si Shui River Basin, it must be trustworthy. When the alliance was held, the reason why these small state princes obeyed Yue Kingdom as the overlord was that Yue Congress guaranteed the safety of these small states and would be destroyed unless they were "rude".

The Tan State was destroyed more than 20 years ago because Mr. Tan was rude and formed an alliance with Yue and turned against his oath of Xuzhou.

Yue Kingdom now has a political burden, and the Mo family seized this point and forced Yue Wang Yi to go to rescue and drive away the Mo family's righteous master.

Some Yue nobles felt that it was unnecessary and did not need to worry about the Mohist righteous army attacking everywhere. It would be better to directly retake the Teng Kingdom and demonstrate their force, so that all countries would naturally surrender.

The temple district advised: "In the past, the former kings gave up Zou and Ni, and rejected the hometown of Lu and seized it with Lu. The army was famous. When the alliance was held, they agreed to 'not harm each other' and 'being surrounded' and rescued', so that all countries believed it."

"Now the Mo family broke through Ni City and seized Wu City. If they did not rescue them, they might make all countries worried..."

The reason for the temple area is due to political prestige.

What Yue Wang Yi needed was a reason, because he wanted to go to rescue himself. The alliance ended quickly and became a joke. He had to establish the majesty of the hegemony of Yue Kingdom.

If even the small Mohist families could attack those small countries but Yue "did not dare to save them", then even if the force wins, Yue's prestige will be gone.

The power of force alone cannot maintain hegemony in the north, because the culture and politics of Yue countries lag behind the Central Plains. If they want to surrender to all countries, they may make all countries surrender to Qi in the future.

Qi State is the number one enemy in the eyes of King Yue.

Back then, Goujian went north, and it was precisely because of Lu and Qi that two "giant countries" that often bullyed these small countries, which led to gaining support from the small countries in Si Shui.

The overall backwardness of the country's politics and culture led to the method of "destroying the country and establishing counties" being a delusion for the country of Yue.

Talent reserves and political systems are simply not enough to support turning these small countries into their own territory, but can only take the form of vassal domination.

If you really want to destroy a country, it will involve the fierce resistance of the nobles of small countries. The gain will not be worth the loss. Teng's previous destruction was more of a kind of intimidation and deterrence. If you really destroy all the countries, then Yue will not be able to hold on in the north at all, and will be overwhelmed by endless restoration, resistance, aristocratic resistance and interference from major powers.

Furthermore, from a military perspective, King Yi of Yue must also eliminate this Mohist charity master who went out.

The Mo family was good at defending the city, and only the night attack in the field was Shangqiu. King Yi of Yue was convinced that as long as he captured the Yi army and invited him to fight to the decisive battle, it would be better. He could not attack the difficult-to-capture cities defended by the Mo family.

Since the Mohist family is good at defending the city, the Teng Kingdom will not be able to be conquered in one day, so they must be prepared for a long-term siege.

King Yi of Yue was not so stupid that he wanted to attack, but he was thinking of besieging the Mo family to kill him, forcing the Mo family out of the city to fight or announce his surrender.

Since we must prepare for a long-term siege, the logistics must be done well. Leaving a righteous army running around in the rear is devastating for the logistics transportation of the Yue Kingdom.

In addition, the logistics preparations from Vietnam are definitely not sufficient, and they must receive support from these small countries. Even if they cannot send many soldiers, it is enough to be able to dispatch food and civilians.

If these small parliaments do not go to rescue, they are worried that the righteous army will break through their capital and attack them with the excuse of "helping for an unjust war". In that case, they will inevitably lead to the small countries not daring to work hard.

King Yi of Yue was angry and could only order the entire army to head to Wucheng.

He immediately sent someone to Lu to borrow roads, declaring that he did not want to invade Lu, but just borrowed roads from the countryside of Lu.

More than 40,000 troops crossed the Yishui River and finally arrived at Wucheng after more than ten days of journey. But Wucheng that caught his eye was a Wucheng without any trace of war.

The Mohist charity master had already gone south five days ago and was missing.

At the city gate, there was still a terrible scene of the siege of the Yishi. The city gate was blown to pieces, and the nearby city walls completely collapsed.

King Yi of Yue heard Ying talk about the scene when Teng Kingdom broke the city, but he did not see it in person. When he saw it today, he believed that the Mo family's methods of siege were indeed beyond the twelve methods of siege in the world.

Wuchengzai stepped forward to greet the envoys of King Yue and Fei. The King Yue was furious and asked Wuchengzai why he didn't stick to it?

Wucheng Zai said, "The country is weak and not good at fighting. The people of Tengdi Yue are stationed and cannot support it for five days, let alone Wucheng?"

King Yi of Yue was not angry, so he asked Yi Shi how he was in Wucheng. Everyone in the city said: "Qiu has no offences, he is the army of gentlemen. Instead, he rectified political affairs, punished corrupt officials, clearly defined rewards and punishments, helped the poor, and performed the etiquette of heaven..."

Wucheng was deeply influenced by Confucian culture. What they called the army of gentlemen was not a "gentleman" based on bloodline and economic status in the Yue Kingdom, but a gentleman in the moral sense.

At this time, an army that can be completely uninvasive is rare in the world.

King Yi of Yue also wanted his army to be a "gentleman", but the army needed food and food, so it was a bit difficult to make this "gentleman".

Before leaving, the Mohist charity master distributed most of the treasury grain to the people in the city, and the remaining ones were taxed grains for sacrifices.

King Yi of Yue did not want to offend the nobles because this was the foundation for the maintenance of hegemony in Yue, and the food needed by the army could not use the nobles' food and the tax food for sacrifices.

In desperation, he had to collect the food from the people.

According to the customs of Yue Kingdom, drums were beating at the city gates, and the people in the city were gathered, telling them that the food from the "treasury" must be returned within three days.

These grains originally belonged to the treasury and were distributed to the people by the Mo family. What was left to King Yi of Yue was a dilemma.

Or, be a gentleman's army, a benevolent and righteous army, without any offense... The grain ran from the treasury to the hands of the individual and then collected it, but the same batch of grain had completely different meanings.

Or, you will be a cruel teacher and a country of tigers and wolves.

In fact, there is a third way, which is to crack down on local aristocrats and force them to hand over food. Unfortunately, the Mo family even counted this: If King Yi of Yue did this, he could be called a comrade. He did not dare to do this. His hegemony and prestige needed the support of the nobles.

After King Yi of Yue issued an order, the minister of Wucheng went to persuade him after hearing this, but King Yi of Yue requested that this was Fei Jun’s order, saying that Fei, as an ally, should provide certain food and grass.

Wu Chengzai couldn't dissuade him and sighed.

The Mohist Yishi entered the city without a doubt. There is no doubt that he could not defend himself. He, the Wuchengzhao, has already achieved his ultimate goal.

Afterwards, the Mohist charity master opened the granary and said that the people in the city were hungry, and the food in the treasury was to allow the people to get relief when they were hungry and to be guarded during wartime.

Now that the people are hungry and have good food, they should be distributed to the people. As for the guards, the Mo family also came forward to say that Wucheng is nothing more than to defend Lu. If Lu invades, the Mo family will stop such an unjust war and will definitely come to support.

The Wuchengzhai Zai was forced and persuaded by the Mo family. After sending food to the people, the people cheered and shouted long live.

During this period, the Mohist charity teacher was completely unfair. He was the "gentleman's teacher" in the eyes of the Wucheng people with a strong Confucian atmosphere. After all, Wucheng was the hometown of Zeng Shen, Zeng Dian and Dan Tai Miming.

For the sake of fame, King Yi of Yue asked Wuchengzai to order the collection work in the name of Fei Jun. Wuchengzai saw the joy of the people when they received the food, and now he wanted to force the people to return the food, and couldn't help but sigh.

I thought of a sentence in "Wei Feng, Mang" and said: Women are not happy either, and men are not good at their actions. Men are not as good as men, and men are not as good as men, and they are of great virtue.

He thought to himself: The second and third scholars are still lost to the concubine, let alone the priest of a town?

A few days ago, I came forward. Although there was force from the Mohist charity army, it still made sense. In addition, I have already recognized the Mohist slander.

Now that I have to come forward to ask the people to return the food, my own words have changed twice in a few days. How can this work? How can the family gain a foothold in Wucheng in the future?

The scholars will leave after two or three, and their wife will leave.

How could the people convince the family if they were the priest of their own town?

I also thought: if you change your words on a month or two, you will not believe them; if you take advantage of the people and get resented, you will be unrighteous; if you abandon your king's fate, you will be unfaithful. If you have one thing in this way, it is better to die than to die!

Even though he died, he thought of some things that the commander of the righteous commander, Ming Shi, promoted.

This time, the propaganda of the Mohist righteous army was to stop fighting and not attack, to expel the brutal Yue and establish a non-attack alliance of the eight countries of Si Shui. During this period, all countries did not attack and stopped fighting and unanimously resisted external resistance. The Mohist schools were willing to support the changes in the cities... and did not mention political changes for the time being, but only mentioned some advanced agricultural tools and technical aspects.

The righteous teacher was completely unscrupulous, and his army was neat. What was even more terrifying was that many of the untouchables who came from mud legs actually knew the words and knew the nine-point numbers, which made Peiyi Zhe admire him.

He felt that the Yishi could defeat Yue Kingdom because he saw the military appearance of the Yishi with his own eyes, the horror of the Yishi's siege, and the terrifying weapons that had never been seen before: the Yishi's commander said that this was the power of heavenly will, and I was afraid that what he said was true.

Since this is the case, I think the Mo family will win in Sishui. If your family wants to continue to take root here, they can't become the one who "helps the evildoers" and is forced to collect food by King Yi of Yue. Wouldn't that be considered by the Mo family to "help unjustly fight"?

If the Mohist family gained power in Sishui in the future, their family reputation will be destroyed and the people will be resentful. How can this last long?

Thinking of "righteousness", one develops aspirations for death.

Thinking of reality and the future of the family made him firm in his decisive ambition.

So, Wuchengzhao said a lot of righteous words in front of the people, and committed suicide by slashing his sword. The people cried and felt even more resentful.

Since he died, no one in the city was willing to stand up and do this. King Yi of Yue had to enforce it and ordered that the food must be returned within three days, and the amount of each family was fixed.

Because the Mohist charity master was too "unexpected", the treasury was sorted out cleanly, the accounts were clear, and the amount of grain each family had allocated was clearly written.

The army was in the city, and the people dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out, so they had to pay the food that had just been divided, which had not yet been warmed up.

There are also many Mohist banknotes, which are purchased but have no food, so they think about paying the "money". After all, this money can indeed buy things.

However, the Yue people did not accept it. Anyone who paid the money would be returned and all the families would be forced to pay the full amount of food.

This time, the contrast is serious, and some people sang songs in the city, saying that the Yue people were cruel and the Mohist school was righteous.

King Yue collected food and heard another news that the righteous army went south and seemed to have the intention of heading straight to the capital of Feiguo.

In Wucheng, King Yi of Yue already knew that there were only tens of thousands of righteous teachers.

If another army, ten thousand people will break through a capital of a country, then it will be a dream. Even if it is a small country, it will not be able to break through in an instant.

Even if you cannot fight back in the city, if you are trapped under the city and attack forward and back, you will definitely be able to defeat you.

However, the ability of the righteous master to attack the city has already made King Yue Yi frightened.

Teng, Ni, and Wucheng were all broken through for several days, and gunpowder siege and excavation of tunnels were a powerful tool.

When Gong Shang was traveling to Yue, he talked about the method of the Mo family defending the city. Digging pits to prevent holes. That was the key technology of the Mo family defending the city. The method of digging pits was unparalleled in the world. With these gunpowder, he really couldn't be prepared.

Since this is the case, the righteous master went south and said that he wanted to capture the capital of Fei Kingdom, so he had to be careful.

Once they are broken, how can these small countries be willing to obey the orders of Yue? Moreover, the base camp of the Mohist family is in Pei County, and the Yue people can only attack Teng State, but not Pei County.

At that time, the King of Chu vowed that Pei County would benefit the world, so if there were people from attacking Pei County, the Chu people would definitely rescue him. Because the State of Chu could obtain technology and various advanced things from Pei County.

After the Chu State's oath, the Central Plains countries also expressed their opinions.

Although the State of Chu and the Three Jins later accused each other of the other party and did not participate in the Mohist-led Bing Summit, the oath about Pei County still worked, especially after the Mohist demonstrated its methods in Shangqiu and Niu Lanyi.

Furthermore, Pei was the territory of the Song State, and the Mo family was just the nominal "Pei Zai". If the Yue people crossed the land of Teng, they would start a war against Song, which was not what Yue State wanted.

Therefore, this battle of revenge could only revolve around Teng and dare not cross the border.

If the power to rescue the vassal states is not shown now, these vassal states will be unstoppable to Yue Kingdom in the future. Yue Wang Yi did not have the ability to completely destroy the Mo family. He just wanted to demonstrate the hegemony of Teng to maintain the shaky rule of Yue Kingdom in the north, so he had to consider the vassal states that were worried about the Mo family's revenge in the future.

Regardless of whether it is true or false, since the righteous master goes south, King Yi of Yue must go south too. If he can fight the Mohist charity master near the capital of Fei County, it would be the best.

Otherwise, if the Mohist army with more than 10,000 people is outside, the Mohist family can trap Tengcheng, how can his tens of thousands of troops fight with peace of mind?

According to the previous rules or common sense of the world, fighting like this is a way to kill yourself, and it is easy to be surrounded by the followers of the army, but now it is really different.

There has never been such a tactic before in the world.

Because before the world, there was never a way to attack the city that could break through ten thousand people in three days, mostly to siege the city, but the Mohist charity army completely changed the rules of the world war.
