This is also a solution. There is a deep conflict between the Emperor's Father clan and the other nobles, but even if you compromise with them in this way, it would be better to burn himself to death by the anger of the Chinese people.

Secret contact with other nobles has already begun, and it hit it off in this matter.

Although the other nobles were once afraid of the aggressiveness of the emperor's father clan, this time the other nobles also saw the crisis they were facing.

Some nobles wanted to rely on Wei Chu, but more nobles chose to stay in the State of Song.

After more than twenty years of "forced" peace, all noble families have accumulated enough power, at least in their opinion, much richer and stronger than twenty years ago.

If the Mo family entered the Song Dynasty, the other princes would not allow the Mo family to monopolize the Song Dynasty. Although the Song Dynasty might be involved in a protracted war, once it stabilized, they could restore their previous life and even be even better than the past, rather than being as worried as they are now, for fear that the people affected by Si Shang really would engage in riots such as "Everyone is equal, choose wise men as the emperor, and the land under the Tao and nature should belong to everyone in the world."

This is a big gamble.

The emperor's father Yue Ling had to gamble. He felt that the earlier he bet, the more likely he could win. Otherwise, it would be like drinking a glass of chronic poisonous wine that would sooner or later, and no one would be able to save him when he was dying.

Several confidants with compassion couldn't help but say, "In this way, the Song land was sandwiched between Wei and Chu and Si. There were many fortresses built on the Si, which made it difficult for the people to tame and invade."

"At that time, I am afraid that the battle will only be within the Song realm. Within the four realm, no less than half of the people will be killed or injured... This is a bit too miserable."

The emperor's father Yue Ling also sighed: "But what's the solution?"

"If Si Shang is not ambitious, if the people do not seek profit and righteousness, if they are willing to plant crops and textiles, why should they do this?"

"The blame for the death and injury of the people is not on us, but on the Mohist family in Sishang."

"It is their morality that caused chaos in the world. If it weren't for their morality, the world would be as always, so how could there be so many casualties?"

Everyone nodded, and some agreed, "The Lord's words were very good. Before, the princes fought against each other and destroyed the country and kept sacrifices. Those who were noble will always be noble. Although the world is in chaos, there are rules and etiquette."

"If today's struggle, the loser's sacrifices are extinct and the ancestral temples are destroyed. The people are scrambling to seek profit and do not follow the laws. All this is the fault of the Mohist school."

"It's not just the Song Kingdom? All countries in the world will be involved in this chaos, with millions of casualties and injuries, all of which are the crimes of Si!"

When the emperor's father Yue Ling saw that everyone said this, those who were compassionate, whether they believed it or not, had at least a reasonable reason, so they stopped mentioning any great righteousness.

He turned to the saying: "This matter needs to be taken seriously. All the envoys from Wei and Chu countries must go to Si. If they agreed, they would be afraid that the country of Song would not be protected."

"Western and Chu are all great countries, and they have the intention of swallowing the world. They want to divide the land of Song to get the land of merchants. If their conspiracy and secret agreement were signed on Si, it would be too late to do this again."

This is reasonable.

What the emperor’s father Yue Ling did was to make all countries unable to react, especially to make all countries reach a compromise with Sishang.

Without lighting your own house, the rest of your neighbors will not come to rescue you.

If the evil neighbors come forward and reach an agreement with the other neighbors to divide their own thatched cottage and ignite their own house, it would be too late.

In the previous tax hike incident, the people resented, but did not resist immediately because they still had a glimmer of hope.

This hope comes from the Dai clan. Twenty years are coming soon. The new Inquiry Yuan Order can elect the Dai clan. The people of the country have the right to participate in major events such as "moving the capital and establishing a king". This is a tradition that has always been the case. The coup twenty years ago and the Mohist ubiquitous activities in Shangqiu made this tradition lively.

They hope to endure the tax increase at this time first, and wait until the new Inquiry Order of the Council was elected. After all, Dai Cong gave the people some hope.

If you have hope, you can still endure and wait.

The day when hope is broken is the day when all the chaos is released at once.

The Emperor's clan has also granted part of the land of its fief to the people on the fief, exempting them from taxes, requiring them to be loyal and serve.

A peasant soldier different from this time is some retro when recruiting soldiers from the Chinese, but more full-time semi-professional private soldier like Xihe Zuo is the power that Emperor Yue Ling can use.

The army of 12,000 people contained a thousand cavalry, which was more than enough to suppress those people.

In addition to the private soldiers of the other nobles, a total of nearly 30,000 can be fully controlled. In addition, a part of the forced conscripts can be collected, a total of nearly 40,000 troops can be gathered.

Moreover, the relationship with Si Shang was quite good before, and weapons such as muskets could be purchased. The components of this army of nearly 50,000 people seemed to be powerful in a battle.

One thousand cavalry, more than four hundred subordinates, are the elite among private soldiers, used to suppress the rest of the field soldiers.

There were about 7,000 musketeers among the field soldiers, which were trained.

The other nobles were able to gather a thousand cavalry and nearly two thousand musketeers.

This is the pillar power in the entire army, and the rest are gathered by forced recruitment. They are all cannon fodder and make up the numbers, but they can be used to widen the line during the matchup.

As long as the speed is fast enough, the private soldiers of the Emperor's Father clan can quickly control Shangqiu. Although the local people in Shangqiu have certain military training, there is no strict organization. Emperor's Father Yue Ling believes that as soon as his army enters Shangqiu, he can control the situation immediately.

Once the situation is controlled, the entire Song Dynasty can be chaotic, inciting anger and hatred, and let the princes of all countries see the terrible riots of the people - using a few nobles as sacrifices to make the other princes empathize, so that the rabbit dies and the foxes will be sad and hurt their species.

The Mohist family must have a long preparation time to start a war.

Because this matter is not just a matter of Song. It is destined to deal with Wei and Chu countries. The emperor's father Yue Ling believes that the Mo family will never enter Song with a small number of troops.

Once Si Shang mobilizes, it will take at least half a year.

This also includes diplomacy and deterrence against Vietnam, Qi and other countries, control and suppression of rebellion in the South China Sea. Within half a year, even if the Wei and Chu countries react slowly, they will definitely be ready.

Once the flames of national riots rise, it is impossible for Wei, Chu, Han and Qi to not interfere. As long as the interfere and the countries restrict each other, a complete Song State may be retained and will receive continuous military support.

The most important thing is that the emperor’s father Yue Ling didn’t have to pay back the money he owed to the Mo family and those merchants before, which could greatly alleviate the financial pressure.

Those merchants from the State of Song will definitely not dare to ask for debts. They will either run to Si Shang or be executed. At that time, they can be fined some land, houses and workshop property, which will help to quickly stabilize the situation.

The conspiracy with the other nobles in the Song Dynasty had already begun. The two sides' confrontation twenty years ago to their current cooperation was just driven by interests.

Although the emperor's father Yue Ling also participated in the blood oath alliance with the nobles, nowadays, everyone knows that oath is not trustworthy. Even in the Song Dynasty, which respects the Emperor Shang God, the nobles first swear and then rebel again.

But now under external pressure, they are surprisingly united and are waiting for an opportunity.

This opportunity cannot be too early.

If it was too early, all countries were not prepared just in case, and the mobilization speed of Si Shang would be faster than the rest of the countries, and Song might not be able to hold on by then.

This opportunity cannot be too late.

If it was too late, Wei, Chu, Han and Si Shang reached a secret agreement to divide the Song Kingdom, and the attitudes of the countries may also be very ambiguous and difficult to explain clearly.

Now that the envoy of the King of Chu has arrived at Si, the emperor's father Yue Ling feels that this opportunity has come.

Because at that time, once such a bloody incident occurred in the State of Song, once the Mo family sent troops, the envoys of Chu would no longer reach a secret agreement with Si Shang, and would definitely leave Si Shang, thus cutting off the possibility of a secret agreement between Mo and Chu.

I think before the King of Chu's envoy came to Si Shang, the King of Chu would not have thought that the situation in Song State would become like the plan of the Emperor's father Yue Ling, so the envoy of the King of Chu would not have continued to talk with the Mo family according to his previous ideas.

At the same time, the Qin envoys had arrived in Song and were about to enter Si Shang, which was also an opportunity to take advantage of.

Halfway through the way, the envoys of Qin were intercepted, and they were controlled, so that they could stay in Song and could not enter Si. They were sent back to Qin, so that the Mo family could not reach a formal agreement with the envoys of Qin.

In this way, Wei and Han are more likely to send troops.

The relationship between Qin and Mo families was neither good nor bad. Although the distance was far, there were many rebels in Mo, and they must have known the strength of Si Shang.

With Qin's usual attitude, this time he would definitely choose to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, and might even give Wei enough goodwill to get Wei Han into the whirlpool of Song.

The emperor's father Yue Ling also considered this matter, because the Mo family in Si Shang seemed to be able to control the situation in the Song State before, which led to the chaos in the Song State into a "noble coup", and they did not want to fight.

If Qin hopes that the Central Plains will be in chaos, it will definitely not hope that Wei, Chu, Han and Si will divide the Song Kingdom, but hope that all directions will start a war around Song Kingdom.

If Si Shang did not want to fight, Qin would probably instigate Si Shang to fight, and even give enough conditions to reach a close alliance, and only ask Si Shang to go to war with Wei, Chu and Han.

But the emperor's father Yue Ling decided to take the initiative, which was to force the Mo family to send troops.

If the Mohist family did not send troops.

The emperor's father Yue Ling could control the situation in the State of Song and immediately reconciled with Wei, Chu and Han, and gained support from surrounding countries in the manner of fighting against the bridgehead on Si.

At that time, in order to fight against Si Shang, all countries will inevitably be happy that Song State will become independent from Si Shang's control.

If the Mohist family sends troops.

Qin did not need to give Si Shang enough price or even form an alliance, because Qin had achieved its goal, and the best choice was to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

At that time, we can even encourage Wei Han to send troops.

As for how to make Wei Han believe...
