I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 41 Zhishen also has a bright moment
If possible, Zhiyao really doesn't want to lead the army to help the Zhao family, Wei family and Han family carry the thunder.

In the original history, it seems that Zhao Yang was forced to be miserable by the allied forces of the princes?

It was Zhao Yang's remnant decisive battle with the Fan family and the Zhongxing family in "Puyang". The princes suddenly appeared on the battlefield with an army, which suddenly put the Zhao family and its allies into a difficult situation.

That battle was known in history as the "Battle of Iron".Before the outbreak of this battle, the state of Jin was captured by the state of Qi to capture a large number of cities, and even the state of Zheng continued to harass the state of Jin in the south. The world found that the state of Jin was not only going downhill, but it seemed that it was really dying.

However, it was the order of the monarch that Zhishi went to war, especially Zhishi himself hoped to use this national war to restore his reputation?Zhiyao can't do some showy operations, what should be done is to meet the invading enemy with an upright attitude.

"All the food, equipment, and clothes are ready, and Gongsun can march at any time." Zigong took on the role of logistics officer and managed the affairs in an orderly manner.

Zhiyao can see that Confucius and his disciples have their own talents.

Zi Gong, who is good at doing business, must be no stranger to dispatching materials, which also involves management.

Zilu, on the other hand, was very talented in leading troops. In a short period of time, he became familiar with the military establishment of Jin State. While marching on the road, he began to try to dispatch the Jin army.

The other disciples of Confucius, they either followed Zhiyao to make suggestions, or went to the grassroots to handle chores. The two legions formed by the Zhi family and its vassals seemed to be completed in less than two months. run-in.

"Everyone has worked hard, Yao prepared a small gift, I can't see it." Zhiyao knew the truth that if you want a horse to run, you have to let it eat grass.

There is no role for Zigong, he is now a retainer of the Zhi family, and he has his own procedures for calculating meritorious service.

Zilu, Yan Hui, Ran You and the others didn't refuse, they took whatever they wanted.

In fact, this is also the case. If you pay, you should get something in return. There is nothing to feel embarrassed about.

They have come to a place called "Ning", which is less than fifty miles away from "Gong".

After the troops were stationed, a retainer from the Zhongxing clan came over the next day and asked Zhishen again why he was on the side of the Zhao clan.

Zhishen really didn't know how to answer, he could only say that it was an order from the monarch.

Then the answer is also appropriate, so as not to be criticized.

"There is no virtue in a king, and he is not enough to be a king. Why doesn't the Zhi family join us and join us in the grand event?" Ren Xiao sent out an invitation.

Zhishen said: "This is to lure wolves into the house!"

Ren Xiao was stunned.

There is no idiom "leading the wolf into the house" yet. Zhishen heard it when discussing with Zhiyao, and thought it was suitable for answering Ren Xiao.

Although there are no idioms and allusions, the literal meaning is not difficult to understand, and Ren Xiao understood it all at once.

"It's the right way for my family to send troops to resist the invasion of the princes!" Zhishen felt that he was doing a just cause, and he had confidence in his heart. Zuo also refuses to give an inch. I would like to tell the generals and the subordinates to wake up in time and withdraw from the coalition forces. They must not make mistakes, and their reputation will be ruined in future generations."

Civil war is one thing, and the truth is that, no matter what unspeakable secrets there are, it is wrong to attract princes to invade.

Ren Xiao knew that Zhibi was indeed trying to preserve the Fan family and the Zhongxing family. In fact, because of Zhibi's repeated efforts, the relationship with the monarch and Zhao Yang became worse day by day.

On such a matter, from Zhao Yang's point of view, Zhifei is the two ends of snakes and rats. If you want to take advantage of it, you have to be a good person; Being dishonest for "Qing" and not being able to stop the civil war depends on whether it can resist the invasion of the enemy country; in the eyes of Shi Jishe and Zhong Xingyin, it is destined to make Zhixuan feel bad inside and out.

How will history books record what Zhibi did?It will definitely be recorded truthfully. How about the relevant interpretation rights? It depends on whether Zhao, Wei, and Han succeeded in dividing Jin, or whether the Zhi family monopolizes the entire Jin country.

Once Zhao, Wei, and Han divided up the state of Jin, Zhi's reputation would definitely be worsened to a certain extent.

If Zhishi annexed the state of Jin, it must have become a positive role for Zhibi in this civil war. It is necessary to make some modifications, such as how difficult it is in which event, and how kind-hearted it is. Class, some erroneous interpretations will be unbearable so that this and that.

To put it bluntly, whoever wins is justified.

Zhishen gave Ren Xiao a guarantee: "If my house doesn't collapse, the Zhonghang clan will continue to eat blood."

After getting the promise, Ren Xiao left, and when he returned, he told Zhong Xingyin what Zhishen had said, and he was silent for a long time after hearing it.

"I shouldn't fight this battle." Zhong Xingyin said.

Even in the late Spring and Autumn Period, some noble ethics had not been completely abandoned. Zhong Xingyin felt that it was wrong to attract the coalition forces of the princes in advance. The problem was that Shi Jishe was too tough.

In this civil war, the Zhongxing family was also cheated by the Fan family to a certain extent. If they were on the dominant side, it would not be so bad. The extreme unfavorable situation would make Zhongxing Yin have some thoughts about Shi Jishe.

Fan's reputation has been ruined since Shi Yang's generation. When it was Shi Jishe's turn to be the master of the family, he still did not change the family's true colors. Even Shi Jishe obviously did not have the ability of Shi Yang, but he was even more greedy.

To tell the truth, without Zhao Yang as the leading brother, there would be a certain "Qing" who would choose to stand up against the Fan family. Civil war is still unavoidable, all because the Fan family is really too greedy.

Zhong Xingyin did not inform Shiji to shoot, but sent someone to inform the princes, and led Fan's army to march along the river.

When he did this, Shi Jishe was very confused, and even the princes were stunned for a while.

what's the situation?
In fact, Zhishen's guarantee to Bank of China has paid off.

Now it is a concept that the ancestors have to enjoy blood food more than anything else. Even if the immediate clan of the Zhonghang clan is wiped out, and the Zhi clan adopts one person to serve the Zhongxing clan's ancestral temple in the future, it is equivalent to the ancestors belonging to the Zhongxing clan still being served.

Zhiyao knew that the Zhongxing clan had withdrawn from the coalition of princes, so she asked Zhishen later to understand what was going on.

I have to say that Zhiyao was a little surprised by the operation of her simple and honest father, thinking: "The attack on the heart is effective, or is it an unintentional move, or is it a blind cat meeting a dead mouse?"

No matter what happened, Zhongxing's departure from the coalition would be a blow to the princes and Fan, and would inevitably affect the morale of the coalition.

Under this situation, Zhiyao asked Zhishen to give an order to march, and the army directly approached the "Communist".

The princes and Shi Jishe were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of Yao Mozi. They also heard the news that Zhao Yang led an army to attack "Mo (Chaoge)". Go to the rescue of "Mo" who is under attack.

Now "Mo" has become very important to the coalition forces of the princes. Whether it is controlled by the allies over there determines how far they have to detour to return to the south bank of the river.

When Zhi's army arrived at the preset battlefield, envoys from the State of Qi came over during the camp phase.

"The widowed king will join the battle, and invite the wise son to start the battle tomorrow!"

no?According to the old rules, shouldn't the newly arrived Zhi's army be able to rest for at least one day?

Therefore, now is indeed an era of not talking about martial arts!
