Under the feudal system, many things cannot be banned, and even domestic centralization cannot be done. How can it be possible to control the entire country to avoid doing business with Si Shang?

Even if you can’t even control Fengjun, how can you control smuggling?

The Mo family has become "a clear ambition", but the countries are divided, and who can organize a coalition force?

All countries have their own small plans. Under the deterrence of Si Shang's military power, even if they are dissatisfied with Si Shang's remarks, they are helpless.

A king has the idea of ​​a king, and a king has the idea of ​​a king. The second military meeting a hundred years ago was attended by various doctors and signed by various doctors. How many monarchs can achieve synonyms among the top and bottom?

Four years ago, the Emperor of Zhou sent people to participate. The Mo family directly rejected the title of Emperor Zhou and refused to stop the war and attacked. Instead, they widely publicized the alliance that "the world is determined to be one side for the benefit of the world."

In addition to arranging the change of land in the Three Jins and the peace agreement between Wei and Chu, the biggest achievement of the entire Heze Alliance was that the princes of various countries signed the "War Law" together.

Because the Mohist school has clearly stated that in a world of great struggle, only one can be determined to be able to stabilize the world, but one must be determined to be righteous in the heart that benefits the world, that is, it is equivalent to saying that war is inevitable.

Since it is inevitable and the chaotic times of the Warring States Period have arrived, we might as well formulate the rules for war between countries.

Not a courtesy.

It's the law of war.

The Spring and Autumn Period, which fought with courtesy, has ended.

The Warring States Period, which fought with law, has arrived.

Treaties such as the excavation of the Yellow River embankment, the irrigation of cities and towns, the massacre of cities, and the construction of Jingguan were recognized by the monarchs of various countries.

It is not enough to not agree. The Mo family proposed that if the monarch does not sign, the Mo family will let the world know and then make the people dissatisfied.

The situation at that time also forced countries to sign.

In order to get Yuguan, Chu State needed the help of the Mo family and took the lead in signing. Qi State was beaten to a half-dead, and even "Gongziwu" was handed over, so he had to sign it.

Zhongshan Kingdom relied on the Mo family to restore the country and signed it in return; Qin did not participate in the alliances of various countries many years ago, but this time he sent an envoy. The Mo family suggested that Qin Kingdom sign it immediately, and then it was revealed that they already had gunpowder, which made Wei Ji convinced that Qin Mo had already joined forces, and in the end, Wei Han and others also signed it.

As for whether to comply with it, it is hard to say. If the Mohist school wins, then it will be punished in the future according to this method. A series of people such as "Qi Gongziwu" who was shot in public in Heze are examples.

The envoy of the Zhou emperor could only curse, but he had no choice but to do anything. Not only did the Mo family disrespect the Zhou emperor, but all countries did not respect it. The Wei State, which used the emperor to seek his own benefit, showed a little respect on the surface.

The era of chaos has arrived. Even the Mohist school has completely never mentioned the non-aggression. Instead, it is believed that the world is determined to be a non-aggression? All countries are speeding up the reform, military reform, and preparing for the upcoming war.

Everyone knows that the Heze Alliance four years ago brought not non-attack peace, but only the tranquility before the storm.

However, no one knows how big the Mo family is, who is going to do it first.

Some people in the caravan know some clues.

The leader of the caravan whose fingers were broken was originally a military officer, and he also knew that there were a few people in the caravan that came to Linwu this time who were not a caravan. Their purpose was that only those who were higher than that could know.

That night, the caravan did not arrive in Linwu and camped outside.

According to the habit of going deep into remote areas, the convoy was surrounded in a circle, and the entourage of the retired soldiers and caravans holding muskets were responsible for the alert.

From time to time, people come out to rob here. Without the control of the grassroots, many villages and communities choose to rob and kill merchants to seize property. They are normal villagers during the day, but if they encounter a fat sheep, they will do it.

This has been the case since ancient times.

After the deployment is completed, the gentleman will take his disciples to look at the stars, observe the moon's trajectory to make notes, and explain some principles about measuring positions from time to time.

At this time, there was no light pollution. A telescope with a slightly multiple can see the largest satellite of Jupiter. Even some people with excellent vision can see it with their naked eyes. This time they also carried a telescope, which was the only way to mark the longitude and latitude of the surveying map.

On the edge of the convoy, there were a few serious-looking people, and they didn't talk much to the caravan, but just a few people gathered together.

These people are a few more people in the caravan. The leader of the caravan did not know the other party's origin, but the chamber of commerce only said that these people would follow.

It seems that these people are only twenty-five or six years old. They are the first batch of children grown up after the Mo family occupied Si Shang. Now many of the children of this generation are already six or seven years old.

The caravan led the caravans, not from Si Shang, but from Luyang to Si Shang. Under the policy of forced service, almost everyone has the temperament of being a righteous teacher, and there is nothing to be seen from this point alone.

There are some things that should not be asked more, but the person who led the caravan could not help but be curious and walked to the people and said hello.

The men quickly got up, responded, and sat by the bonfire.

"Is there anything wrong with all of you coming to Wu this time?"

After asking, the obvious leader among the people shook his head and said, "It's nothing. We are all carpenters. Isn't this our shipyard downstream of Linwu? We are going to help."

Linwu has a special geographical location, officially the upper reaches of Hunan River, with a lot of timber here. It was said that it was to facilitate transportation of goods, so a shipyard was opened under Linwu.

Every year, I have to pay taxes and fees to the local Fengjun. Linwujun himself has an industry and his disciples are engaged in business. The Mohist shipbuilding technique is very good. In addition, the pass-through taxes are collected based on the number of ships, so this shipyard has a lot of orders, which is quite prosperous.

However, the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce did not believe this. The behavior of these people along the way was not like carpenters at all. They would stay for a while wherever there were mountains, rivers, small paths, and places where they could wader.

The leader of the caravan guessed a little in his mind, and could not curb his curiosity. He sighed unintentionally: "Once Lechang Gorge is completed in the future, it will be more convenient to transport goods. Although Linwu is remote, it is a dangerous place."

He said something, once Lechangxia is completed, it will be natural and convenient to transport goods, and it will be equally convenient for transporters.

The person opposite did not reveal the mountains and rivers and smiled and said, "Yes, once it is repaired, you can communicate with the north and south, and benefit the whole world."

After a few more words, he moved the topic elsewhere, with a very strict speech and no trace of it.

The caravan leader asked a few more questions, but he was not satisfied with his curiosity, but he was helpless.

The people on the other side naturally knew what they were here to do. They were all young officers from the General Staff. This time they followed the caravan to Wu for another purpose.

Two years ago, with the destruction of many countries such as Fulou and Yangyu in the South China Sea, the Mohist family had established a foothold in the land reform in the South China Sea, and their situation towards Chu had formed a three-sided encirclement.

Linwu was located in a steep position. Later generations of Emperor Shin-Yu conquered Baiyue. It was Linwu who walked. As a watershed between the Xiangjiang River system and the Pearl River system, this remote place has extremely high military value.

These people came to Wu, which was also a similar purpose to Shu Junzi and others, to observe the terrain.

However, Shu Junzi and others are normal surveying and mapping maps, standard city locations and mountain trends, and they observe the local tactical terrain.

It is not necessarily for fighting with the State of Chu. The General Staff itself lies in preparing for any trouble.

This includes observing the thickness of Linwu’s city wall, collecting some hydrological materials, examining the people’s support and reluctance here, etc.

The relationship between Chu and Mo is very delicate now. With the struggle between Chu and Wei and the rise of Si Shang, the originally intimate relationship between Chu and Mo has become more confusing now.

The Song State has been in great chaos recently, and the contradictions that have been forced to suppress by the Mohist school have begun to explode. The Song State is the real gunpowder barrel in the Central Plains.

Wei and Han went south, Chu people advanced north, and Mohists went west, all of which needed to revolve around the Song State.

The accumulated contradictions intentionally relaxed the suppression, and the Song State was already in chaos.

A country is in danger when chaos arises. Just like Zheng State back then, it is likely to become the fat meat in the mouths of the princes.

However, everyone in the world knows whether Song can take a bite is not due to Song, but to the attitude of the four families of Wei, Chu, Han and Mo. With the Mo family beside him, moving Song means going to war with the Mo family in full swing.

The war five years ago left a deep impression on all countries. All countries were reforming and catching up, trying to centralize power and reform the military system. The later the time was delayed, the more beneficial it was; but the later the time was delayed, once the Song State was completely controlled by the Mo family, the situation in the entire Central Plains would completely collapse.

This is always a difficult thing to make a decision.

This is the first time that the Mo and Chu families have publicly sang opposite each other.

The State of Song was too close to Si Shang. The troubled affairs of the people and the city autonomy that had been causing chaos in the Song Dynasty. If it weren't for the Mo family, the State of Song, which had decentralized power would have long been destroyed.

This time, the Song State broke out again, and the old nobles of Song State immediately asked for help from Wei, Chu, Han and other countries. The Mo family said that the affairs of Song State should be decided by the people of Song State themselves. Because the power of the old nobles was obviously not enough to suppress, the Mo family would of course say this; if the old nobles had strong power, the Mo family would naturally say that this was not the internal affairs of Song, but the injustice that harmed the world, and everyone could kill them.

The relationship between Chu and Mo was initially intimate because of Wei and Han's prosperity and Yue's aggressiveness. Now the situation has changed. The only little intimacy between the two has changed greatly with the chaos in the Song Dynasty.

As a result, it was already difficult for some Mo family figures to enter Chu State to engage in activities, and they could only rely on caravans as cover to carry out various activities.

The relationships within the caravan were complicated. Many vassal kings in the State of Chu had shares, and they could also make a lot of profits every year, involving the interests of many parties. It was not something that the King of Chu could eliminate trade in just one word.

The caravan leader talked about Lechangxia’s implicit voice before, but how could these young people not hear it?

Once the Lechang Gorge is completed, if a war breaks out with the Chu State in the future, the Mohist school will have a great advantage.

A part of the troops from Lingnan and occupying Linwu is equivalent to occupying the upper reaches of the Xiangjiang River. From top to bottom, you can go directly to Dongting Yunmeng. Even if you are not the main force, you can harass and cut off the connection between the north and south of the Chu State and the east and west.

There were only more than 400 Chu troops stationed near Linwu Pass. Linwu City also built an old-style city. From now on, they have observed the situation along the way. The entire Linwu is like a dustpan, with an essential area sunken. As long as the Linwu Pass is broken and Pangyi is taken along the upper reaches of the Xiang River, which is Hengyang in later generations, the connection between the Chu State and the upper reaches of the Xiang River will be cut off.
