Chapter 129 Back Road

After sending away the energetic Liu Finger, Shi took advantage of the alcohol to sit at the desk and wrote a letter to Shengchuo, who had never contacted since Shangqiu reorganized, in the name of the third giant of the Mo family, Mozi's disciple.

The letter uses extremely straightforward language, describing his various speculations.

The general idea is that according to reasoning, Qin has reformed and has gradually become stronger in recent years. Shengchuo, Wu Qi and others have become older, and Ying’s gap has gradually grown older. The people of Xihe have gradually accepted the rule of Wei, so it is very likely that they will attack Xihe in these years.

The distance is too far, the Mohist family cannot control it. Although the Mohist family hopes that there is no war in the world, although it is unjust for Qin to attack Wei, and although the current reforms of Qin State are also exploiting the people in the eyes of the orthodox Mohist family...

But this is an unavoidable fact.

It is said that although there is a conflict between Shengchuo, although you rebeled from the Mo family, and you did not even have the qualification to mourn for three days when Mozi passed away, but... I still hope that you will remember some of the teachings of Zi Mozi back then.

Once you attack Xihe, please do not hurt the lives of the people too much, do not slaughter easily, do not use means such as burying prisoners alive and massacre cities. This is an act of harming the people...

This letter is completely like a ridiculous letter written by a man who was full of righteousness like Duke Xiang of Song.

But Shi believed that Wu Qi and others would understand Shi's meaning: Everyone in the world knew that Wu Qi was good at planning the country but not good at planning his body, which means that history changed and did not die in the coup in Chu, but his personality was definitely unchanged.

Shi used the art of "talking about knowledge" in his letter, which means that Wu Qishengchuo, you are old and have made many contributions, and you are a foreigner in the surname. I heard that last winter, Qin Jun gave birth to a son. According to human nature, he wanted to leave a good political situation for his son. Although the Mohist school opposed this system of father-son succession, reality was against reality and did not affect inference.

In addition, in recent years, the Wei State has lost more and won less, and its national strength has declined. So I guess you will soon attack Xihe. It is hard to leave such a great military merit for future ministers. The child is still young, and then the aristocratic power is very powerful, and it is very likely that the law will be repeatedly reformed; I am afraid that it will be uneasy for outsiders.

Ah, we are against this kind of dog-biting war, but we are unable to stop it, so the only thing we can do is hope that you will kill less people.

This is a letter full of open conspiracy, telling Qin that you will be the best opportunity to attack Xihe in the next few years. You don’t know. I will tell you.

After writing it, Shi collected the letter and asked someone to send it back to Pengcheng, hand it over to Qiwulai to check and then send it out in his private identity. After all, as a giant, there is no complete private letter. If you should save the file, you should save the file, and if you should explain it clearly, you should explain it clearly.

After writing the letter to the Qin people, Shi wrote another letter to the general who was about to lead the troops and the Chu State to work together to go north to Zheng State. This is a public letter to be used in the future.

The letter said that in the future, if the Mo family will negotiate with Chu, what kind of situation will eventually be reached.

It is not clear yet, but most of the time, the negotiations will definitely collapse. Once the news spreads, no matter what happens, the troops will be withdrawn immediately. At that time, the Chu people will have to be prepared for the possibility of a sudden turn against each other. Although this possibility is very small, we have to be careful.

The route of retreating should be planned in advance, and don’t be fooled at that time. It is best to retreat along the Yingshui River to the Huai River, and the organization will come forward to respond along the way.

When fighting in joint battles with Chu State, you should fight, but you should not execute the task of sending death. When should the cavalry be used and when should not be used, the initiative is in the hands of your own people. Once it is obvious that this task is to send death, you will refuse to execute it.

After the letter was written, Shi Shi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the direction of Xinzheng, located northwest of Shangqiu, thinking: "The way out has been prepared for you, and the series of events caused by the Song State coup will end in Xinzheng. I wonder what kind of situation you will make? Don't worry and boldly, if something happens, I'll take care of you."

…………

Xinzheng, Xu Ruo and others naturally would not know what Shi was preparing for Xinzheng and those who followed them and those Xinzheng who gradually began to resist and pursue interests.

But they were convinced that since the letter said that they would adhere to the principle of benefiting the people and not compromise too much, then it was obvious that they would cause a lot of trouble and did not mention how to solve it. Obviously, Si Shang would do his best to support them.

As for how to support it, it is not what Xu Ruo and others have to think about. Sometimes it may not necessarily lead to the army under Xinzheng City to support it.

They have been guarding the city for twenty days. It seems that if Wei and Han do not increase their troops or artillery, they can still defend for a longer period of time.

At least Xu Ruo was full of confidence.

His methods of abandoning the old wall without using the new city defense were tested in actual combat. In twenty days, the Wei and Han Allied Forces left behind a large number of bodies, while the people guarding the city were more and more confident.

The power of the nobles is constantly being consumed, because some necessary counterattacks require the private soldiers of the nobles who have organized and proactive offensive combat effectiveness to be slaves.

The people have cities and cities to support them, and their organizational strength is gradually improved; the elite private soldiers of the nobles can not be trained in one or two days, and the strength in the city really increases and decreases.

For the Mohist family, there is really no more comfortable publicity opportunity than defending the city.

In order to defend the city, the nobles needed strong people, and the people were organized together under the closure of the city. The effect of publicity was really twice the result with half the effort.

After more than 20 days of fighting in the city, the people in the city gradually got used to the Mo family's organization, and life in the city was well organized.

In the evening, I teach to recognize words, tell stories, and sing songs full of violent resistance.

During the day, guard the city at the top of the city and practice on the hollowed-out ground in the city.

Every day is spent like this, and more and more people know what kind of Zheng State they should want.

For example, joining the non-aggressive alliance will neither give tribute to the Three Jins nor the State of Chu; for example, everyone will be assigned a piece of land that cannot be bought and sold, and land outside this piece of land can be purchased. For example, the taxation of the king should be approved by the people; for example, the cancellation of feudal labor rent and feudal obligations; for example, the emperor and princes have not always had it...

All these have given Zheng people a real program to imagine a perfect Zheng country. Even if there are many unrealistic things, this is the first time that Zheng people have tried to build a Zheng country that belongs to them with rationality.

They gradually understood the root of suffering; they gradually understood the lie that nobles are always noble; they gradually understood the fundamental reason why nobles are more cultural than common people; they gradually understood that the existence of kings and nobles was simply unreasonable.

Zheng State is another place that is easiest to engage in such propaganda, and there is no other reason, because Zheng State is one of the only remaining countries with the strongest tradition of civil affairs discussion. There have been many expulsions of monarchs, domestic coups, and refusals to serve.

The five people who entered the city while singing that day, singing songs made many Zheng people learn more songs full of resistance and recalled the suffering they suffered in the past.

The King of Wei and Han is not a good thing; the King of Zheng and the nobles are not a good thing; even though they know that these are two piles of manure, why do they have to choose one of the two piles of manure?

I used to have no choice, but now I seem to have another choice.

The emotions in the city became more and more radical, and there were even several incidents in which the people clashed with the nobles without obeying the orders of the nobles.

Not long after, because the families of several nobles had privately stored food and did not publicly distribute it, a chaos in the city was triggered: the Wei and Han Allied Forces attacked outside, and the guards to be guarded on the city wall, but the remaining people in the city burned down the houses of the nobles, tied the nobles to demand death, and a bloody conflict occurred while attacking the houses of the nobles.

Although the Mohist and nobles finally suppressed this matter by taking one step back and compromising measures, the problem was not solved, but was only forcibly suppressed.

In this case, not only Zheng Junyi was terrified, but the nobles were even more terrified.

For the nobles, if the Chu State sends troops, is the only force that the Mo family can rely on?

Choosing the Mohist family to rely on is a temporary measure. The sequelae is too great. The state of Song is an example. The sequelae is that it is very likely that a large number of nobles will be killed by the people twenty years later.

For Zheng Junyi, Chu State was not the best choice.

To him, a noble bastard who divides power and takes profits, he is a puppet; the people are not good things, and they seem to be more terrifying than the nobles.

As soon as the night entered, Zheng Junyi in the palace stood on the inner wall, and bursts of songs that had been sung before and would be executed, the bonfires in the city flashed, as if the bonfires were stirred up by these songs and danced and swayed gracefully.

Zheng Junyi frowned and said that he had been besieging the city for more than 20 days. There was no panic in the city. As a ruler of a country, he should be happy, but he could not be happy.

The news of communication between the city and outside has been cut off, and no one knows what the situation outside is.

The senior officials of the Mo family knew that the Chu State sent troops but the Mo family would not send troops on a large scale; however, the Zheng State did not know that the Mo family had no large scale troops on a large scale.

The singing started again and became more and more excited. Zheng Junyi said to the close minister who spoke that day: "Did you hear this song? Do you know what it means when the people of the country start singing some songs?"

The close minister nodded. He knew too well what it meant for the people of the country to start singing together. It was often the prelude to the riots of the people.

In the past, the riots of the Chinese people had no program, and they were standard against people and not against the system.

The Chinese have the power to discuss the regime, and in name, there is the right to enthrone, but there is no right to inherit. At most, it is like a bastard of the king and change it.

It’s different now. The “rebellion” in the world has appeared for the first time, which is amazing.

Zheng Junyi looked at the flashing bonfire in the city and suddenly asked, "Do you still remember the eight years of Duke Xiang? When I think of the past and look at the present, I feel terrible."
