Chapter 180 Unshakable Power (10)

Sometimes reasoning is not to convince others, such as this argument in the Qin court before.

Qin Jun did not need to be persuaded, because it was his intention to invite Wu Qi to Qin. He was able to recuperate and train the new army to teach the fields to the people for ten years, and he was waiting for such an opportunity.

When it comes to reasoning, what the Qin public can say is nothing more than those rules that are not related to weakness, the laws of ancestors, and so on.

At this time, there was no content of all-round reform, and at least it has not been discussed publicly. However, the nobles and princes all understood that the purpose of Qin's invitation to Wu Qi to Qin was ultimately for reform.

Not many of them opposed Wu Qi's entry into Qin because of hatred. What they opposed was the prelude to the change reflected behind this incident.

The content of the rebellion and Mo's letter was just a formality. Qin Jun praised Shan, so he appointed Wu Qi as the general, and first the city was reigned in Quan and Luoyin to prepare for Wei.

When an order is issued, there will naturally be nobility opposition.

Qin Jun knew who the leading noble was, but he couldn't move, and he didn't want to move for the time being.

Wu Qi, Shengchuo and others are indeed talented, but they are not their own family members after all. Even if they want to turn against the old nobles, they cannot do it too well.

The real great nobles dare not move, and those relatives who shaking flags and shouting can use them to attack.

Qin Jun chose three of the nobles who had previously strongly opposed Wu Qi's resignation, and the fiefs of these three were near the fiefs directly under Qin Jun.

So he called someone "Qingtian Jue".

The so-called clearing of fields means reviewing the size of the aristocratic fiefs, whether they comply with the norms, whether they exceed the ban but do not pay taxes, whether they occupy land outside the fief, etc.

If you catch such a thing, no nobleman would be able to escape if he was Qingtashi.

But the purpose of this time is not to be a quinting tree. A quinting tree is just a means to attack those opposing nobles: if you don’t oppose change, you are still relatives, and you can still have a fief. If you oppose it, what will happen? Please observe it yourself.

The matter of Qingtian and the officials trained by Rebel Mo were all clear-headed. As long as they checked that none of them comply with the system and norms, the three nobles knew that Qin Jun was attacking them and did not care about their own occupation of more fiefs.

However, Qin Jun did not mention that it was a killing chicken to warn the monkey and directed to clear the fields. He only said that the three of them violated the rules and regulations, so he severely punished them, reduced the household registration of the fiefdom, and placed the land they occupied directly under Qin Jun and granted the land to the people.

These three people couldn't say anything, "There are so many people who are not in compliance with the rules, why should we just check us?"

If you say this, you will offend the allies of the nobles again, and you will never be able to turn over and have no choice but to bear it.

The civilian officials who had been waiting for a long time quickly completed the measurement of these lands, granting land, placing households, and direct administration.

This is like telling the nobles: Now I have the ability to directly govern, so don’t think that I can’t manage it without the feudal system, so you should be obedient, otherwise these three people will be your fate.

How come the nobles didn’t know the intention of killing the chicken to warn the monkey?

But Qin Jun's move did differentiate the public clan.

The stubborn public clans felt that they had lost their power and fiefdom anyway, so it would be better to connect with foreign countries to get rid of the gap between them. However, it is a bit difficult now, unlike if they could force the monarch to commit suicide in public decades ago, which would be unpleasant.

The nobles who shrank and timid, or who really cared about the Qin country, could not help but think that if they did not resist, they would still be able to retain some of their fiefdoms. If they resist, they would be afraid that they would end up miserable.

This is not because of the kingly aura of the Ying army, but because of the land in several counties under his jurisdiction, the New Qin army in his camp, the more than 100,000 people who supported Qin Jun benefited from the land system, and the Shengchuo, Wu Qi and other figures in his hands.

Moving the capital from Yongcheng to Liyang was avoiding the old capital that had been run by the old aristocrats for many years.

The camp outside Liyang City was a new army that could not be mobilized by a king's order. The shining bronze cannons, Qin crossbows, and muskets made the old nobles dare not move lightly.

In this case, Qin Jun invited Shengchuo again and Wu Qi entered the house to talk.

Ying Shijie thought to himself that the Qin State, which was shrouded in the western front, could finally change. This is a rare opportunity and should not be missed.

When the Battle of Nanji River and some subsequent changes came to Liyang, Shengchuo was overjoyed and could not hide his joy.

This is not because he was once a Mohist, and he still had a lot of incense for the Mohist family. He was happy that he saw that the Mohist family won.

But Sheng Chuo understood the importance of this matter to Qin. The great victory over a thousand miles away meant that Qin would have at least several years without external interference, and to complete the transformation with peace of mind, transforming Qin into an absolute monarchy war machine where "what the superior is the subordinate must be, what the superior is not the subordinate must be, military merits are given to the land, and three generations have no merits to receive their titles."

Shengchuo, who was a rebel from Mo and participated in a series of events in the reorganization of Shangqiu, received news that Qin Huali was seriously ill and unable to manage government affairs, he disdained the rumors that Shi might be able to return to Si Shang. He understood the horror of the Mo family's organizational power, but he wanted to learn it but couldn't.

As for Wu Qi, he was skilled in strategy and talented in generals and prime ministers, and he also knew the outcome of the Qi-Mo War and said to himself: "What is Tian Qing? How can he defeat the Mohist righteous army? If Qi is defeated, the Mohist family will be in great power, and the east will be in chaos, and the West River may be favored."

Therefore, today, the three kings and ministers knelt in the secret room and could not hide the smile on their faces.

Ying Shijian looked at the news coming from thousands of miles away, pointed to the Mo family's order to punish the unrighteous order, and laughed: "In this way, the east will be in chaos. The Three Jins turn against each other, Wei and Chu fight again, and Qi Mo dies in revenge. Isn't this what you call 'Waiting for changes in the world'?"

When Shengchuo was in Wei State, he abandoned the employment of various countries after the war in Linqiu Shoucheng and followed Qin Jun, who was still in exile at the time. Now he has been in 20 years and has a close relationship.

He also smiled and said, "What the emperor said is very true. The Three Jins are enemies, and Wei and Chu are fighting again. Even if there are Wu soldiers in Xihe, it is impossible to cross Luoshui and Zhushan. If there is change in the world, then the country can change."

"The world is prosperous and prosperous, and it is all for profit. For the matter of change, it is necessary to influence the interests of the old nobles of the clan. In order to maintain their own interests, they can force your great-grandfather to commit suicide, and they can murder the monarch and welcome the young king. Then they may not lead foreign interference in the army into Qin."

"The Wei people are too busy to take care of themselves, which is our opportunity to change."

"Although the world changes, in my opinion, I am afraid that the war will be stopped for several years after this battle. The civil strife of Qi is about to begin, the Mo family wants to gain Huaibei, the Chu people Xinping Chen Cai Dongting Cangwu, Wei loses Zhongshan, and the dispute between Zhao Gongzi... There may be no war within three or five years. But after three or five years, the war will inevitably begin, and there is not much time left for the king and Qin State."

"If you want to change, you will become more thorough and deeper this time. Change will make Qi a new life and change customs. If you don't do this, I'm afraid that Qin will not be able to take the Xihe step for a hundred years, and it will be difficult to dominate the Central Plains."

The specific content of the change has been discussed by Shengchuo, Wu Qi and others, and will not be discussed this time.

The original content of the change was not so intense, and we were ready to go in steps. Ying Shi was worried that all countries would interfere in the chaos in Qin. Now that the east is in chaos, there is no need to be careful. We should really seize the day and seize this once-in-a-lifetime external bad situation.

Ying Shijian nodded and said yes, but looked down at the rest of the news, his eyes full of envy, and sighed: "You said, the most fear of the destruction of people is the end of the country. You and Wu Zi both live for no reason, and you know the destiny of heaven."

"Since I have abandoned people and sacrificed my life and death, I will not be afraid of life and death. If one day, you and I will die, will the Qin State be like the Mo family? The birds are seriously ill, and the Mo family is not at all confused, like the towering mill, with teeth and combs tightly connected and running as usual..."

"I am quite frightened to see the fact that Qin Zi was seriously ill at this time. What kind of power is this? Even if our transformation is successful, then the Mo family must be the one who will compete for the world with our Western Qin in the future, right?"

He looked at Wu Qi and asked again: "In your opinion, can the strength of the Mo family's righteous teacher be shaken?"

Wu Qi spurted a breath from his nostrils, and said with a proud pride: "The Mo family's good use of military forces is not as good as me. However, the strong righteous army is far superior to the military soldiers in Xihe, and the new army of Qin. If I lead 30,000 righteous troops, I should sway the world, and no princes dare to stop me. I mention the new army of Qin and the military soldiers in Wei, which may require 70,000."

He had more than 70 battles in all sizes. Since the State of Lu, few people have tied with him. Shengchuo confronted Wu Qi under Xiang Ziniu, and only relied on the fact that the Qi army was more powerful than Lu, so he only tied once.

Even though the Mo family had Shangqiu, Niu Lan, Hanshui, and the five battles of Jishui, they still could not shake Wu Qinai's position as the best man in his military at this time, especially the previous battle in Daliang was shocking the world.

Wu Qi said this, but in fact, it was just another thing: on strategy, adapting to changes, and commanding in front of the battlefield, I am afraid that the characters of the Mo family will be even worse than him. He felt that he could dominate the world by mentioning 30,000 righteous troops, but the Mo family had been fighting with Qi for so long, and he had to plan for a long time but was reluctant to take the initiative to attack the Linzi Legion. This is the gap.

But the ratio of 70,000 to 30,000 has to be admitted that when it comes to military training and discipline, the quality of a righteous teacher is the best in the world.

After a moment, Wu Qi said with some loss: "The Battle of the Hanshui River is stupid, the King of Yue is stupid, and the Battle of the Jishui River is stupid. If I mention the Yi Shi, I am afraid that it will be just like this. In terms of this, three to one, and ten to one, but in the eyes of the world, these three and ten are bigger."

Shengchuo and Ying Shijian laughed at the sound of this, and then Ying Shijian said, "What you said is very true. Chuo, you know the affairs of the Mo family. From your perspective, the Mo family is not at all confused this time, and all the people in charge of the army have no intention of rebellion. Why is that?"

This may be a very difficult question, but Shengchuo's answer was extremely simple.

"The Mo family members have no fiefdoms or private soldiers. The organization is tight, and even the guards around Shi and others are not appointed by Shi, and they need to be approved by the organization."
