Chapter 125 The Journey of a Letter (Part 2)

The scholar walked up to the carpenter and pretended to chat a few casually. He was a millet-carrying man, not far from Zezhuo, and he slightly revealed the incision of the joint in his words.

The carpenter handed the letter to him when there was no one. The scholar and the man found a chance to be left unattended and saw the content outside the letter - to send the letter into the city as soon as possible.

He was in charge of food and knew that there was no chance, so he found a Mozhe, a noble son who belonged to the same line as him.

If we look at the identity alone, this noble son is less likely to become a Mohist than a down-and-out scholar.

This nobleman, who was born as a noble son, is only twenty-five or six years old this year. When he was born, the Mo family had just experienced the reorganization that changed the future development.

After birth, he was a concubine's son and his family was not too big, and he was not trained as an heir.

But I also received a certain amount of education.

His father participated in the Battle of the Three Jins and the subsequent Battle of Jin and Chu, and made military achievements.

The Three Jin Dynasty was the place where military merits began, and the South Koreans obtained a lot of territory from the subsequent Zheng State Rebellion, which led to his father being enfeoffed some fiefs, and the original fiefs of the family were still near the Yingshui River.

When he was a child, the Si Shang hegemony war broke out in Mo Yue's Si Shang, and that war also had a certain impact on South Korea.

At that time, Tengcheng was shocked by the fact that it had been defeated for several days. He had just bullied Qi with the Three Jins, and forced the Yue Jun army, who was driven as a guard by Qi, and the army of the Yue Kingdom, was completely destroyed. Gunpowder weapons and new tactics showed their figure in front of the people of the world for the first time.

With the article "The Victory of Tianzhi Reason" about Tengcheng being destroyed and spread throughout the world, the father of the noble son believed that the legitimate son inherited his fief and identity, and these sons should learn the tactics and techniques of the Mohist family in order to make military achievements in the future.

This is also the common idea of ​​many nobles after the Moyue War. On the one hand, the Mo family did not show enough terrible fangs at that time; on the other hand, that war did shock the world, especially after Wu Qi used gunpowder to blow up the Liang of Chu, which led to the great defeat of Chu.

Indeed, in the eyes of the nobles at that time, there was a layer of oil outside that was wrapped in highly toxic things.

However, there is nowhere else to learn, and the old-style aristocratic education cannot allow the aristocrats to learn new things.

So, with the support of the family, this noble son was able to enter some lecture schools that the Mohist family allowed to open at that time, and receive education on some writing, numbers, astronomy, geography and natural knowledge.

There seems to be nothing outrageous, especially in South Korea, where the lecture content of the school is occasionally reviewed, but the poison of oil outside is also extremely poisonous after all...

Especially things like text can cause the spontaneous spread of the poison and are simply uncontrollable.

Gradually, the noble son knew that the earth under his feet was round, and then the values ​​of superiority and inferiority, which were originally based on the difference between heaven and earth, gradually collapsed in his heart; the noble son witnessed some changes that could be seen in Korea with the spread of new iron crops and other things. The belief of the old system sacred has collapsed since ancient times; the nobleman accepted the ancient theory of Tao following nature, and the values ​​of the monarchy and the noble feudal geography have collapsed since ancient times...

Equality, love, synonym, wealth comes from labor, people's suffering, meaningless disputes in the summer, profit and righteousness... These things are like rivers breaking through the dam. With his growth, the gap in the dam expands day by day.

After learning to write, the "novels", "newspapers" and "story" that came from Si Shang are also slowly corroding his mind. This is a spontaneous corrosion. Every reading will bring great pleasure and emptiness and resentment after the pleasure.

The saying that the nobles are sycamore made him angry, but after anger, he was unable to change and had to accept pain; the saying of love made him confused, but after a doubt, he became more and more eager to know the temptation of the reasoning process; the saying of equality made him fear, but after a fear was self-awakened from his identity as a concubine.

All of this made him increasingly believe that the path he chose was correct, and he also made some "ink-colored" remarks in South Korea.

But he is not a commoner, he is still a noble after all, and he is a noble family. South Korea has not yet completed the centralization of power. As long as it is not too much, it will be fined three drinks.

However, his father and brothers were full of vigilance about this. After several quarrels, they found that they could not make clear the truth with their father and elder brothers. Looking at their lives made him bored, and a sense of guilt from a noble family spread all day long.

In this case, he joined the Mo family and became a secret Mozhe. He then put aside his attitude of making these remarks in public. Then, with the help of his father, he entered the circle of young nobles. It was also considered "willing to be able to repair the number of black clothes to defend the royal palace."

Those who guard the palace are all nobles. Being a palace guard is not something that ordinary people can do. The main reason is that entering this circle is extremely difficult, requiring a background, and it cannot expand communication in the aristocratic circle.

Five years ago, the Battle of Qi and Mo broke out, and the Si Shang Yishi once again shocked the world. Since the Taigongwang era, Qi, which has been a powerful country, has been vulnerable to one blow and was defeated in full swing. The firearms and stirrups raised their troops, and the role of artillery became more obvious.

In this case, South Korea also sought to form a new type of firearm unit and new cavalry like the Sugayoshi Division.

These things cannot be trained with your eyes closed. The relationship between Wei and Han and the Mo family was not good, and the Mo family could not send instructors. So some nobles who accepted knowledge of Si Shang because of their parents' sensitivity when they were young became the backbone of this new army.

The nobles were born for loyalty. At least the Mohist school was a noble who had no effort to get a job. A new army with prospects and abilities must be under the control of the nobles.

Knowledge is for the purpose of training the army. The knowledge of the old era could not adapt to the new era. Many things were not that simple. Although some nobles who came back from "study abroad" when Si Shang recruited students were not enough to support them, and these people were more or less bewitched by the Mohist theories, South Korea was not too relieved.

As a result, this noble son became an officer of the new army in South Korea.

It is actually not too new to say that it is a new army. It is just a normal evolution from chariot war as the main force to infantry as the main force. Even without these new things, the one who ultimately won the world was the heavy infantry legion of the Qin State after the reform.

Wei Wuzhu and others in Wei State were also an attempt, but this kind of military system reform coincided with the emergence of gunpowder, which made the direction of change naturally develop towards the old military system in Si Shang.

The mixing of the mesh gun and the spearman became the standard for this new Korean army.

The noble son became an officer of the new army, and he ruled two companies, including a company of a clamp and a company of two spearmen.

However, South Korea has not fought on a large scale in recent years and has not made any contributions yet.

This time, the division of Zheng State made many nobles of the same origin realize hope and longed for making military achievements this time, jumped up and compete with the old military nobles.

The fact is just as they hoped that this time, the city wall was bombarded by artillery. Although the progress was not smooth after the bombing, the South Korean New Army officers were very happy no matter what.

If it goes well, it will be the contribution made by the firearms, and their new army that has never existed in the past will gradually be reused.

If it doesn't go well, it means that the new army is insufficient in quantity and quality, and it should be worthy of reuse from above.

This noble son knew very well that there must be Mo people in the three companies he was in charge, at least some people who were close to the Mo family and had been promoted by the Mo family.

Although he is a secret man and is not the same as others, if you observe some habits in your daily life, it is easy to see which ones may be "our own people".

He was also lazy in this regard. He had heard some tunes that were banned in Korea more than once; some were obviously the synonyms of the Mohist school's theory of equality and love, and some were obviously new lyrics brought by Si Shang more than once.

But he did not place his hope on others. Since he had come to his place, he also wrote to send it to the city outside. This was the order from his superiors, so he must have executed it.

He has made a decision on how to send it in.

The siege has not been smooth these days. Although the gap has expanded, the city defense behind it is still stable, and the above has begun to be impatient, and time is extremely unfavorable to Wei and Han.

He will soon be attacking the city again. He hopes to participate in the siege as a first-deng and find an opportunity to defect.

He also knows what he means to do so, and means he will break with everything he has before.

Aristocratic status, father and brother, loyalty, filial piety, family, friends, all social relationships outside the line, treason for treason... all kinds of things.

But just a little hesitation, he strengthened his mind and thought: "If you benefit the world, live and die. Since you promise to be in the world, you can give up all this."

There is nothing more than a choice than a day or a night.

Just when he had already firmly determined his will to die, a strange word that he had heard a long time ago appeared in his ears.

Only one kind of strange words will be said by people, that is, the Mozhe who needs to contact him will say them.

In amazement, he raised his head and found that there were several people standing opposite him, not from their company. It seemed that he had been waiting for him in the toilet for a long time. This was almost the only way for the front line to meet and connect with each other.

There were five people standing opposite, exactly one soldier. The man in charge should be a sergeant, and he was looking at him solemnly.

It was just this kind of gaze that made him convinced that the Mohist who was in contact with him was the opposite side. Otherwise, common people like Chief Soldier would be frightened and nervous when they saw the nobles. This was a very ordinary but very presumptuous gaze. What he saw was the word "equality" that he had read for more than ten years.
