Chapter 155: Concurrent Love (Part 1)

People see ghosts as ghosts because ghosts are different from humans.

Ghosts see people as humans, but they are also different because humans and ghosts are different.

Ghosts and monsters cannibalize people because of the meaning of ghosts. It is natural for people to eat people, and only if they do not eat them are aliens.

Ghosts do not feel ashamed or wrong because they think they can eat people, but people just wishfully think that ghosts think that it is a cruel thing.

Some people regard this group of people from the Mo family as ghosts, but in the eyes of some Mo people, this is a good thing.

At least, this is closer to Mozi's meaning of love: at least no one regards the difference between the people of Qi and the people of Sishui, so that for this reason, he will not be able to stop until his death. People from Jiuzhou and Jiuzhou can love both, while people from Qi and Sishui cannot love both.

A few days later, these ghost-like Mozhe did something that shocked the people of Guyi.

The Mo family actually organized the captured Qi people to dig and repair the Nanji River, which had been flooding, but did not let these prisoners build the city walls and think of future wars.

He did it as he said, without any shirks and delays.

The people who were able to benefit from the Nanji River were involved spontaneously. The army had hundreds of management experiences and the organizational techniques that had already existed in the Mohist city guarding technique. They quickly assigned this matter in an orderly manner. Every day, the excavation progress could be seen. It seemed that it could be completed within more than a month, thus completely eradicating the flood caused by this detour in the Nanji River to Guyi.

Those people who benefited from the Mohist school of thought asked with a hint of expectation: "Are you going to leave?"

Being able to ask this sentence is equivalent to a slurry pot.

Liu Fingers who stayed in Guyi to deal with these things replied in a very formal "Mohist" manner: "It doesn't matter whether we walk or not. Whether we stay or leave, what's important is that this ditch can indeed benefit the people. Since this is the case, why not do it?"

"I once said, do not do things for small profits, and do not do things for small harms. Even if we leave one day in the future, the Nanji River will never flood Guyi again, so that's enough."

The ambiguous answers made the public inexplicably moved, but some people had different ideas.

Some spies and scouts from the Qi army came to Wucheng quickly after hearing these words, and gave the Mo family's work in Guyi in return.

Before they returned the incident, news of the Battle of Nanji River had already reached Wucheng, and tens of thousands of Qi troops were shocked.

The head coach Tian Qing and Gongziwu were even more panicked. At that time, Gongziwu cursed: "It's as stupid as a dog! The army of 60,000 was defeated by 40,000 people in one day! Doctor Pingyin was extremely incompetent!"

Although Tian Qing was frightened, he still retained some soberness and sighed: "The strength of the righteous teacher and the appropriate wisdom of the chariot are beyond the ability of the doctor Pingyin. It is not necessarily a mistake to line up the array with back water. If it is a field battle, it will be broken in one day."

The Linzi Legion had entered Wucheng a few days ago. For those Fedian nobles who were in panic in Wucheng all day long, it was like a drowning man who had caught a large log.

The soldiers of the Feiguo people who were patrolling near Wucheng and the charity troops who came to support decisively chose to retreat.

When he first entered Wucheng, Tian Qing was full of complacent ambitions.

Although he had received a letter from Doctor Pingyin to ask for help before, Tian Qing felt that Doctor Pingyin had 60,000, and the Mo family went deep into important places, and behind them was Qicheng. Even if he could win the battle, the Yishi would inevitably suffer great losses.

Even if he cannot win, if Doctor Pingyin can seize the city and defend it, he will defeat Feidu after the renovation of Wucheng, and his troops will go straight to Teng, Xue and other places, threatening Sishui. At that time, the main force of the Yishi Army will definitely return to the rescue.

Unexpectedly, in just three or five days, the news came that the 60,000 army of Doctor Pingyin was destroyed in the Nanji River. Doctor Pingyin was captured and 50,000 Qi people surrendered.

From then on, there were no soldiers available from the Jishui line to Pingyin during the calendar period. If the Mohist family broke Pingyin, Linzi would be in danger.

What's even more terrifying is that the Mohist family suffered minimal losses in this battle and they can fight again.

Tian Qing knew about the defeat of the Qi army in the most important place a few years ago, but he really didn't expect that the Yishi's combat power was so strong. He was shocked and actually knew that this time the Mo family and Qi State had won the battle against Si Shang.

As the head coach of the first army, you can keep calm and think about countermeasures after knowing the news of the destruction of friendly forces. This is a basic quality as the head coach.

Now the scouts have returned the matter, saying that what the Mohist family did in Guyi was not as open and upright as Liuzhi said.

In his opinion, although the Mo family is beneficial to the world, it is now a fief of the fugitive nobles in Guyi, and a digging of ditches to deal with floods. The people are convinced and unrequited. Wouldn't the Mo family occupy the Ji River?

The Jishui River is almost certain. As long as the Mohist family seized Chengyang, the entire Jishui River basin could be under the control of the Mohist family.

Now that I think that Chengyang has already learned about the Battle of Nanjishui, it is even more impossible to send troops to fight in the field. The Wei and Han coalition forces can only choose to defend in Chengyang and dare not leave the city.

What Tian Qing thought was not necessarily wrong, but Tian Qing thought about it based on the interests of Qi and the country, so he naturally had some conflict with Gong Ziwu's idea.

After the news of the Battle of Jishui in Nan, Gongziwu asked Tian Qing to return to Linzi, saying that the Pingyin Legion was destroyed and Linzi had no danger to defend.

But Tian Qing understood Gongziwu’s thoughts.

If Linzi is lost, Qi will not be destroyed. When Chu was captured by Wu Zixu, wouldn’t it be restored in a flash?

If the Mohist army gathered in Linzi, Tian He's position as the Duke of Qi would be unstable, and Prince Tan would likely take the opportunity to coup to ascend the throne.

Prince Tan is the legitimate prince and the result of compromise between the forces of the Tian brothers. If he comes to power, he will be legitimate.

Moreover, the most important thing is that if the Mohist army threatens Linzi, Prince Tan Da can negotiate with the Mohist family and betray Tian He, saying that this unjust battle was all under Tian He's commander, and he should destroy Tian He's marquis like Tian He's abolishment Jiang Qi. This will help to break the siege of Linzi, two can win people's hearts, three can make peace with the Mohist family, and at the same time, use the power of the Mohist family to clear out Tian He's power.

As a nobleman, Tian Qing has been in the palace for a long time. How could he not understand the cruelty of the struggle between the princes in the palace? The dispute between the princes in the Qi State is a common occurrence. How many hardships did Qi Huan go through and how many brothers did he die before he became the throne?

He is from Tian He and from Gongziwu. He can understand Gongziwu's mood very well in the current situation.

If Prince Tan takes office, then he will hold a large army. Even if he will win over himself now, he will inevitably expel himself over time.

Therefore, looking at the interests of the entire Qi State, the interests between Tian Qing and Tian Wu are also consistent.

In the original history, Tian Wu also came to power to kill his cousin, cleaned up his uncle's remnant power, and then he settled his seat and opened the Jixia Academy to find legitimacy and legal rationality for the Tian family to serve Qi and his coup. This made the theory of the Five Virtues Reincarnation.

Originally, his son even wrote a sacrificial text: The only reason is that Emperor Yang Kao Zhaotong, Emperor Gaozu Huang, and Emperor Huan Wen.

The recognition of Huangdi as Emperor Gaozu led to the development of the Huang-Lao School and the theory of the Five Virtues of Jixia Academy in Qi State.

The Tian clan needs to recognize Huangdi as Emperor Gaozu, so that he can have the legitimacy of reigning Qi. After all, the Huangdi clan is longer than the Jiang clan.

This also indirectly proves the internal affairs of Qi State and the unstable and uneasy situation of Qi State in the Tian Ho Tian Wu period after the Tian family reigned on Qi.

A true king-hegemonic person is like the First Emperor. After unifying the world, he does not need to find legality for his ancestors. The county system replaces the feudal system, and he will beat him if he doesn't accept it. The heroes who suppressed the late Qin Dynasty could only wait until the First Emperor died before he dared to revolt - Emperor Gaozu of Han was three or four years older than Emperor Shi.

The problem with the Tian family was that the Jiang family was replaced by the rules of the aristocratic feudal system, and then there were a series of problems in internal brothers' disputes and coups: they neither had the self-cultivated farmers, workers and businessmen as the pillars to change the destiny, nor did they lack the legality within the aristocratic rules.

Now the internal problems of Qi have been ignited by the Mohist school in advance. It is not the problem of the Tian family replacing Qi, but the backlash of the family flow that Tian family started using from Tian Chang.

If Tian He is defeated in full this time, Prince Tan can defeat his uncle Tian He. Tian He is abolished, which is equivalent to Tian Wu having no chance to take office.

Tian Qing considered Qi and his idea was undoubtedly correct.

So what if Linzi is lost? So what if you escape to other cities? As long as Qi does not surrender or make peace, the Mo family will not be able to hold on for a year at most. And when the matters within the Three Jins are resolved, no one in the Three Jins can tolerate a Mo family that occupied most of the cities of Qi, including Zhao and Chu, who are now in friendship with the Mo family, can not tolerate the Mo family, which has the foundation of Si, and then occupy the land of Qilu.

Just like the restoration of Chu State back then, I could always win by delaying time.

But if you have to consider your own interests and Gongziwu's interests, you can't delay this time. The result of the delay is that Qi is still there, but Qi is no longer Tian He and Tian Wu's Qi, but Tian Tan's Qi. So for Tian He and Tian Wu, such victory is meaningless.

Qi State is not Qi State of Qi, not Qi State of Tian family, but Qi State of Tian Hetian Wu. This is the crux of the problem. Qi State is present, which does not mean that Qi State of Tian Hetian Wu is present. Just as Qi State is still called Qi State, but it has nothing to do with Jiang Taigong's descendants.

Without thinking, Tian Tan can definitely do something about Ning and Qiu, not brothers.

Facing Gongziwu, who was determined to withdraw his troops quickly to help Linzi, Tian Qing advised: "Do you know how Modi was famous all over the world in the past? Did he rely on his righteousness?"

Tian Wu knew this very well and said, "No. Although his righteousness can condense Mo, he became famous all over the world. He still relied on the fact that Chu attacked Song in the past. Later, he defended small countries such as Song, Wei, and Lu. His skills in defending cities were unparalleled in the world, so he was well-known among the princes."

Tian Qing said, "After Mo Di's death, his disciples were still there, and the blue was better than the blue. The lord was suitable for making copper cannons, making gunpowder, and making geometry. His skills in defending the city were even better than Mo Di."

"Anyone who can defend the city must be good at attacking the city. If he can't attack, he will not defend. In the past, he fought against King Yue at the Hanshui River, and defeated Tengyi in one day and seized Wu City every night. At that time, there were only a few thousand people in Mo."
