The sunflower seeds that were sprinkled at will and were deliberately planted by ink people who went deep into the village and community sprouted soon after.

They grow up day by day in the rain of the grass, the wind of the summer solstice, the heat of the light heat, and the thunder of the great heat.

Leaves like tung-like and buds like chrysanthemum-like.

After that midsummer sacrifice, a lot of things happened.

The Mozhes rely on the trust of usurping the name of Wu Zhu, doing things that have nothing to do with Wu Zhu, just like those growing sunflowers, slowly gaining more trust.

The sunflower has not yet bloomed, but the seeds sown before have already grown.

He was no longer the son of the unknown shoemaker, at least someone from thousands of miles away knew his name.

Thousands of miles away, the capital of Wei was Anyi.

Wu Qi, who was nearly forty, has been returning to Weidu from Xihe for several days.

The leader of the Wei Sect who truly trusted him and used him was in his prime. In Wu Qi's opinion, this was a hero, a hero who could perform his own revenge.

The land of the Three Jin Dynasties is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Originally, the Zhao family was the most profitable when they split up, but after years of changes, the leader in the Three Jins had become the Wei State.

In the west, the north seized Zhongshan Kingdom from the Zhao family, and used the name of the joint efforts of the Three Jins to win over Han Zong to prevent Zhao from being involved in the Central Plains. The Zhao family did not benefit from his efforts, but he was temporarily unable to turn against Wei and Han.

There were Li Kui and Ximen Bao inside, Le Yangzi outside, Wu Qi, and Gongzi attacking Zhibing. There was also Zixia as his army, which made Wei gradually become the cultural center of the Three Jins.

The most important thing when Wu Qi returned from Xihe this time was that Weis hoped that Wu Qi would be careful of Qin and would ensure that when aligning the army, he would not let Qin find an opportunity to back-sting.

This is not a difficult task for Wu Qi. The most important thing is that after Li Kui's reform, Wei took the lead in implementing the private land ownership system in the Xihe land. Many Qin people fled from Qin territory to Wei just to own a piece of their own land.

In this case, Qin could only defend and was difficult to attack. Qin was defeated a few years ago, and its vitality has not yet recovered. Wu Qi just came to report on the situation in Xihe to reassure Weis and also gave Weis a reassurance for him to make a strategic decision.

Not long ago, when Qi was in chaos in the country, before the Qi army was used, Weiss specially sent someone to ask Wu Qi for advice.

Wu Qi only said: The people of Qi have a strong personality and a prosperous country. The king and his ministers are arrogant and extravagant, despised the people, their government orders are relaxed, their salary is uneven, and the people in the formation are uneven. The troops in the front are strong and the troops in the back are weak, so although the troops are concentrated, they are not strong.

If you want to attack Qi formation, it is best to divide the troops into three groups and attack the left and right wings with two groups. If you have the opportunity to complete the flank encirclement from the rear, it is best to encircle the flank from the rear, because Qi people are weak on the side and back, and once the flank encircle the Qi people will be defeated. If you don’t have the chance to encircle, then the two wings will force the Qi army to worry and defeat them in one fell swoop.

Now the first phase of the battle to attack Qi has ended, the siege of Linqiu has been lifted, and the three sects have annihilated 30,000 Qi troops, 1,000 chariots, and built two capitals.

The chief general Wei Zhizhai Jiao used Wu Qi's tactical concept to encircle the Qi army from the flanks, triggering the first annihilation battle of tens of thousands of deaths in the early years of the Warring States Period.

The battle of chariots in the Spring and Autumn Period had only a few thousand deaths, and the war situation dominated by defeat had changed.

The news came back. It was said that a rebel Mo Mo defended the city in Linqiu. Before the reinforcements arrived, they almost broke the city at the most critical moment, but were defended by these rebels. The exquisite methods were greatly appreciated by Zhai Jiao, who led the Wei soldiers. When Wu Qi mentioned the name, he suddenly realized... He was familiar with this person when he was a general in Lu State. The two led each other several times to fight each other.

Now the Duke of Qi has been notified to collect the body, but the Duke of Qi refused. I don’t know whether it was the Duke of Qi who refused or whether the Duke of Qi refused in the name of the Duke of Qi to completely lose the hearts of the people.

In the name of the Duke of Jin, the alliance initiated by the emperor's imperial edict was also over. Except for Duke Song who died halfway through, the other countries invited were already participated.

After the alliance, under the order of the Emperor of Zhou, the three sects of Han, Zhao and Wei went to war as the three armies of Jin, and agreed to meet in Pingyin to completely defeat Qi. King Yi of Yue also sent troops to attack Qi in the southeast of Qi.

This time, what led the army to fight was no longer their own deployment, but a battle to scatter the country.

King Yi of Yue personally led the soldiers of the Yue army. Zhao Ji, the sect leader of the Zhao army, Han Qian, the sect leader of the Han army, and Wei Dazong, the sect leader of the Wei army, was the sect leader of the Wei army. He took advantage of the order of the Emperor of Zhou to strive to prepare for the title of marquis to be named as marquis with the power of one battle.

Now that the three main forces of the sects have been released, Weiss is most worried about the Qin people, so he urgently recruits Wu Qi and rewards, and listens to Wu Qi's opinions in order to make a decision.

The only one who has the ability to pose a threat to Wei is now Qin.

Qi State will be defeated, Chu State has too many monarchs, and the King of Chu is newly established, and the mobilization is slow, and it will take at least one or two years to go to complete the expedition and integration.

The Song, Zheng, Wei and other countries in the south did not dare to touch the Three Jins, and they were all fence-bearers.

Zheng State, with a little bit of strength, is still a mortal enemy with Han Zong. Han Qian's father killed the king of Zheng when he attacked Zheng. If Zheng State really wanted to take the opportunity to send troops, Weis would be grateful. In this way, Han Zong would only be closer to Wei and could unite to encircle Zhao Zong and prevent Zhao from being involved in the Central Plains.

This time Wu Qi returned to Anyi and received many rewards. He was at ease for the Lord and saw some things he had never seen before.

In Weiss Palace, Wu Qi saw a grain that he had never seen before, called sweet potato, which was extremely tacky.

Weiss was asking those Zixia's disciples to give him a nicer name and to offer it to the emperor as Jiahe, so that it would be easier to formally be appointed as a marquis, correct the name, make the words more smooth, and give some auspicious meanings.

It is said that there are two other grains, which were given to the Zhao family and the Han family.

The person who sent the gift was from the Emperor's Father of Shangqing Sicheng, the State of Song. Weis was very happy and deliberately showed it to Wu Qi. It is said that this species can produce several stones per mu, which is most suitable for spending the wasteland year. It can also be planted in some mountains in the Sanjin Mountains, which is most suitable.

It was also the first time Wu Qi heard Shi's name here, but he couldn't remember how there was such a strange character among the Mozhe.

He had heard of the name of Mozhe when he was in Lu State, and he was quite familiar with it.

He met Mo Zi when he became an official in Lu.

At that time, the Duke of Lu also asked Mozi how to be wary of Qi. Mozi looked at the national affairs and military strength of Lu and told Lu directly that he would either take the time to prepare gifts and make friends with various countries, take advantage of the power of various countries to help. He could only win one or two battles but could not completely defeat Qi; or he would make comprehensive reforms, centralize power in hand to strengthen national strength, save money and increase resources.

Wu Qi agreed deeply at the time and was quite dissatisfied with the reaction of Lu Hou at that time.

Later, Xiang Ziniu attacked Lu, and Wu Qi became a general of Lu. He also fought several battles with Mo Zhushengchuo under Xiang Ziniu, who won two and tied two.

However, he commanded the weak Lu army, while the other side commanded the strong Qi army. It is obvious that Wu Qi has become famous since then.

The Linqiu war was passed back, and Wu Qi also heard that the one who helped Gongsun Hui guard Linqiu was Mo Zhushengchuo who had fought with him several times back then.

I thought that this person was indeed rebellious, but he was a fellow traveler with me and was determined to pursue a career.

He is quite familiar with the Ink Master.

On the one hand, there was a history of becoming an official in Lu State. Lu land relied on the Song Dynasty, which was the scope of Mo's activities, and Mozi also went to Lu State in person.

On the other hand, he first followed Zeng Shen to learn from the Ru Ru. Zeng Shen was the one who cried when he was a child and his father told him to go back to kill pigs and coax him not to cry. He ended up killing the child. He was the mortal enemy of the Mo family of Wujun and Wufu. Several well-known figures of the Mo family were mentioned all day long. As a disciple, Wu Qizeng, how could he not know?

It is precisely because of my familiarity that I wondered when will there be an extra person named Shi among the Mozhe?

It would be fine if he had just heard of this name in Weis Palace and the envoys of Song Sicheng, but he had also heard of this person's name several times in Anyi City.

A kind of food called tofu, crystal-like jade, just appeared in Anyi and became very popular. One is that it is soft and delicious, the other is that it is not expensive. Wu Qi has eaten it once, which is indeed great.

When asked about this thing, it was created by the name of the Mo man, and it was found in all major cities.

A new way to eat wheat began to appear in Anyi. It was the first time Wu Qi saw that there were so many ways to eat wheat as a mixed grain, and he also admired it a lot after tasting it.

Another question is that it was created by the name of the Mohist, and it will be available in all major cities in the future. Why did Sumai be planted in the Song Dynasty and harvested in autumn in spring? In the future, this thing will be popular in the Central Plains.

Originally, Wu Qi was very interested in Shi Du. When he heard Su Mai's saying, Wu Qi felt even more moved.

He held a banquet in Anyi overnight and invited the envoy of the Emperor's Father of the Song Shangqing Sicheng to inquire.

His reputation in Xihe has become famous, and he has become famous all over the world. Facing an envoy from a weak country, he doesn't have to be polite. He goes straight to the point, asks Shi, and also asks about Sumai.

"This person is about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was originally just the son of a shoemaker in Shangqiu. I don't know where to learn the skills, but he was in a low status after all."

Wu Qi nodded quietly, but he disagreed. He felt that there were people who could be praised and did not care about the noble nature of blood. It was because of this that Wei Zong could have the current situation that he attracted talents from all countries.

If you value the public clan, it is probably Wei's end. Wu Qi looked down on those figures in the public clan. Even the young master attack, who was able to lead troops to fight, was nothing more than that in Wu Qi's eyes.

However, he also understood why he had never heard of this person's name. It turned out to be a newcomer, so he asked about Sumai again.

"Su Mai is planted in a village outside Shangqiu City, but it is useless. Martial arts need to be performed in winter. If Su Mai is planted, where can I still have time to perform martial arts? Furthermore, if Su Mai is planted, where can I go to perform martial arts in winter? Winter is a season for hunting, hunting, and shooting in the countryside, so this is not possible."

"Besides, I heard that if you plant Sumahara, you will need to harvest Sumahara in May next spring, and then plant the next round of crops. In this way, if the common people do not practice martial arts, the country will be weak..."

The envoy said that it was correct. This was based on the original military system of various countries. Under the system of villages and land granting, farmers and soldiers were united, villages and communities were self-governed, and martial arts were performed on weekdays and directly recruited during wars. It was impossible for farmers to spend all their time on planting.

But after hearing this, Wu Qi suddenly moved his heart, and almost showed an excitement on his face. He took a deep breath to stabilize his mind and said to himself: "This method is great! It is in line with the military system of the martial soldiers! Why do you need the whole people to perform martial arts? With 30,000 martial soldiers, you can beat 100,000 peasant soldiers!"

What he wanted to change was not just formations and training, but military system. So this was not a big deal in the eyes of the Song people, but it made him feel that it was simply a matter that could not be greater.

He is not just a general, but a great talent who can go from generals to prime ministers. Naturally, he can see farther than this messenger, and also beyond the Sicheng Emperor who only knows how to seize power in the internal struggle.
