Mencius later generations once said about the debate on profit and justice in war.

Mencius believed that the Mohist argument that the war was too utilitarian, especially the words that Moz stopped the war in Qilu. In addition to talking about righteousness, he also carefully talked about the pros and cons from the perspective of Qi. He believed that the Qilu War would not benefit, but might instead be subject to diplomatic pressure and isolation from the Wei, Chu, Han Yue.

But Mencius believed that this was wrong and we could not talk about profit, because if we talk about profit, the war would never end: if we don’t fight today, we won’t fight tomorrow, and what should we do if we are profitable tomorrow? Therefore, we should talk about righteousness and benevolence. Only in this way can the war be ended.

Although the Mohist school in Si Shang has undergone appropriate corrections, in terms of justice and profit, especially when the war is about to break out, in addition to talking about righteousness, it is more profit.

Whether Qin is an alliance, Si Shang doesn't care and doesn't want to form an alliance with Qin at all.

The words in the newspapers cannot anger Qin. From the policies of Qin, we can see that Qin Jun and Wu Qi and others understand very well that the more they debate the truth, the more they become clearer. They will not choose to debate, or even fight back in words. They just prohibit the spread of the theories of Mohism, militia, Confucianism, and Yang Zhu to the west of the Wei River.

Since we were about to talk about interests, Qin State was very clear about its position in the possible outbreak of the Second Central Plains War.

The Qin State was not qualified to participate in the matter of the Central Plains at this time. The geographical location determined that Qin State would always be trapped in the western border and away from the Central Plains before it could not get the West River.

The Qin envoy already knew the meaning of Si Shang and also understood the purpose of Si Shang's general mobilization: to defeat the enemy without fighting.

If you want not to fight, you must be prepared to win the battle. This is something that the Qin envoys admire very much.

After observing the military situation on Si Shang, he was even more sure that if the war was only started around Song State, Wei and Han would be dragged down, it would undoubtedly be the most favorable situation for Qin State.

He will return to Qin soon, and there is still a lot of time. If Wei, Chu and Han really decide to start a war in Song, they will have to prepare for at least one year. This year is enough for Qin to adjust its strategic direction.

But whether it is fighting or not, it is good news for Qin, and it is nothing more than the difference between big profits and small profits.

There is no need to talk about it when fighting.

If we don’t fight, after the incident of the Song State, Wei and Han needed to deploy a large number of troops on the Eastern Front, which involved a lot of energy.

…………

After talking to the Chu envoy and the Qin envoy, Si Shang's foreign policy of dancing with his long sleeves continued to focus on another country.

A few days later, while the written documents of Song Duke and the people of Song Dynasty requested the Mo family to send troops to quell the rebellion arrived at Si Shang, a team of Si Shang went to the declining Zheng State with great fanfare.

On the same day, Si Shang met with a long-term envoy from South Korea here and talked about Si Shang's attitude towards the Song State Affairs-the matters of Song was decided by the people of Song, just like the people carrying millet chose to return to South Korea to save them from the suffering of war.

After the appointment, Si Shang's diplomatic direction worked towards continuing to disintegrate the possible alliance between Wei, Chu and Han.

Bypassing the Wei State, Si Shang directly sent an envoy to Zheng State, that is, to Zheng State, which is believed to be the sphere of influence of its own food on the plate, and stimulate South Korea with the greatest formation.

Since the Siziyang coup was killed more than ten years ago, the remnants of Siziyang killed Zheng Gong, Wei and Chu were defeated in the battle for overthrowing Chu, and Zheng was divided into three parts, Zheng was an unremovable fish bone stuck in the Wei-Han relationship.

In the war against Chu, the intervention in the Qi-Mo War, and the war of inheritance rights of Zhao, Wei acquiesced the Korean embezzlement of Zheng in order to gain support from South Korea and continue to maintain the alliance between the two Jins.

The state of Zheng, divided into three parts, ate some of them and broke through the corridors of Daliang and Hedong.

The remaining part was eaten by South Korea, and the remaining Zheng State territory was still in the cracks between Wei, Han and Chu. Wei State did not want to annex Zheng State directly because the relationship between Wei and Han would be extremely tense, and of course he did not want South Korea to annex Zheng State.

Zheng Guo and Han Guo died of hatred, and Zheng Gong died under the sword of Han Hou. Si Ziyang stood out from the seven mulms because he was a firm pro-war faction, inciting the emotions of the people in the country and gaining support, thus always controlling the national affairs.

The death of Si Ziyang was precisely because he wanted to gain the independent status of Zheng State, and eventually died of the joint strangulation of domestic opponents and foreign forces.

Zheng Gong was killed by Ziyang's remaining party. After the division of Zheng State was divided by Wei and Han, most of the land was divided, and the remaining Zheng State land still insisted on fighting against South Korea.

For more than ten years, several wars broke out between Zheng and Han, and several changes of hands were made. With the foundation left by the Siziyang reform, Zheng State had both victory and loss. In addition, the tension in the external situation caused by Chu State's advance north and Si Shang West in recent years shared great pressure for Zheng State.

Not long ago, the local people in Fushu collectively rebelled against Zheng under the instigation of South Korea. Because of more than ten consecutive years of war, the people there did not want to continue fighting.

Zheng State has declined to an unparalleled level, and it is meaningless to continue to fight. South Korea is powerful and has died too many people around the world over the years. South Korea uses this mentality of the people to incite defection and get the world, which also allows South Korea to obtain the important bridgehead on the north bank of the Yingshui River.

Wei was very dissatisfied with South Korea's actions and did not want South Korea to erode Zheng gradually, because if South Korea is strong, the Three Jin alliance will no longer be possible. The foundation of the Three Jin alliance must be that Wei is strong and Han is weak, and the Second Jin suppresses Zhao to form the Three Jin alliance.

Because Wei and Han needed to face the threats from Chu and Si together, Zhao hid behind, did not work hard, and every time they distributed their interests, they excluded Zhao in the Central Plains, which made the essential Three Jin Alliance the Wei and Han Alliance.

South Korea has also begun reforms in recent years, and because of the existence of Zheng State, South Korea has enough room for development.

Wei regarded Zheng as a buffer and some bait to maintain the Wei-Han alliance.

If Wei directly annexed the remaining land of Zheng or divided it up with South Korea, then there is a lack of sufficient buffering ground between Wei and Han, and the conflict between the two sides will intensify, and it is likely that the situation of the Han-Zhao alliance will occur.

In fact, the collapse of the Wei-Han alliance in history was also after Zheng State was annexed by Han. In history, ten years later, the princes of Wei State fought for the throne, and the war of inheritance rights broke out. Han and Zhao sent troops to intervene, and even prepared to directly abolish Wei State, divide the Wei State into Hedong and Hexi countries, divided into Eastern Wei and Western Wei, so that the two princes each gained one country and completely destroyed Wei State.

Wei State has always been very alert to the direction of Zheng State. It not only attracts South Korea's appetite, but also uses the power of Zheng State to suppress South Korea, which has an extremely interesting situation.

On the one hand, in terms of the overall situation against Si Shang, Chu and Zhao Qin, Wei and Han were in alliance. On the other hand, in the matter of Zheng, Wei tempted Han and said that if you give some more efforts, I will give Zheng to you, and at the same time, he quietly supported Zheng to fight against South Korea.

South Korea has made a lot of efforts to make this big cake, but Zheng State still exists and has not been completely annexed by South Korea.

It’s not that South Korea cannot defeat Zheng State. If it really has the intention to destroy the country, it will only take a few days for South Korea to destroy Zheng State. However, because of the existence of Wei State, the affairs of Zheng State are the same as those of Song State. They are not decided by the original country, but by the external.

The Mo family has never participated in the matter of Zheng State, or it has not been involved in it explicitly. Regarding the three-pointer of Zheng State, Si Ziyang was killed and Zheng Duke was killed, the official attitude of Si Shang was "dog biting dogs".

However, a lot of weapons were sold secretly and they kept in contact with Duke Xinzheng.

Zheng State is the weakness of South Korea, and it is also a breakthrough point in the breaking point that can disrupt the Wei-Han alliance through diplomatic mediation.

When Fu Shu was rebelling against Zheng and Han, Wei State was very dissatisfied with this, believing that this was inciting Han behind the scenes, especially when Zheng State had surrendered to Wei, the relationship between Wei and Han was a little nervous.

Si Shang has never expressed his opinion on this matter, but has taken the opportunity to sigh that all the people in the world have been fighting for a long time, and by the way, he launched a call for various countries to stop wars.

The call for resolution at that time said: the people of various countries elected wise men from all over the world, and the nine states were synonymous and laws, depriving the nobles of their military power.

This is obviously something that countries cannot accept, but the Mohist family shouted the most happily. Although the Mohist family did not want to do this at all because it would leave behind huge remnants of aristocraticism, it was because they knew that the countries would not agree that they could be high and far when shouting slogans.

The Mohist family used this method that disgusted various countries more than once. South Korea did not care about the Mohist attitude, but cared about the Wei State's attitude.

The incident of burying the millet incident is not a national self-determination, because most of the people who carry the millet are from Zheng. The essence of the incident of burying the millet incident is that the people who carry the millet are tired of fighting and do not want to fight anymore, so they chose to surrender to the enemy country.

Zheng State's national strength is weak, reforms are interrupted, and the people are suffering from three troubles. South Korea is not a good bird. Since they are all the same, it is better to choose a big country to stand by, at least there is no need to fight.

Because Zichan did not destroy the village school and Deng Xi established laws among the people, the people of Zheng State participated in politics very well. It was precisely this that the Zheng State people went to war more than ten years ago and collectively defected but did not resist to protest against the war against Chu.

Fushu is not the place where the Mohist family in Si really wants to disgust Korea. The entire Zheng State is where the Mohist family wants to disgust Korea.

The envoys were sent to Zheng State with great fanfare, which was actually for South Korea to show.

The Mohist school has not yet expressed its opinion on the Han-Zheng War, but it is not impossible to express its opinion.

If South Korea joins the Wei, Han and Chu alliance and starts war around Song, then Si Shang can support Zheng's anti-South Korea.

On the other hand, if South Korea does not join the Wei, Chu and Han alliance, then the Zheng State's unrest incident will be the people's self-determination, with legal principles and the Mohist school supports it.

The Mohist strategy was to start with the south and then the north, which destined that the Song State was the limit of the northern sphere of influence. Zheng State's position was more likely to happen than that of Song State: the Zhou Emperor to the west, Wei to the north, Han to the south, and Chu to the south, which was a place where the Mohist was unable and had no interest in interfering for the time being.

The abandonment of Zheng State, which had little to do with Zheng State, and used Zheng State as a victim, inducing the relationship between Wei and Han to become more tense. This is the purpose of this time. Inducing South Korea to take the opportunity to swallow Zheng for its own benefit, thus completely dismantling the Three Jin Alliance.
