System: I let you have children, not fight for hegemony

Chapter 30
The white homing pigeon brings the news of Changping to many fishes.

Lian Po led his army to march west along Fukou Pass, the fourth of the eight passes in Taihang. He passed Hukou Pass and entered the hinterland of Shangdang. Then he went south along the Bajian River to Yangtou Mountain, passed the Gu Pass, and then along the Xiaoxiao Pass. In the Donghe River Valley, you pass through the entrance and arrive at the Xun Family.

"News from the Mo family?" Zhao Zheng held a torch and came to Duoyu's study.

There are two high chairs and a large and high desk in the study room, which were made by many carpenters.

Because many fish don't like to sit on their knees and feel that studying at a desk affects their growth, this high table and chair was designed.

Zhao Zheng also has a set of tables and chairs in his study. After getting used to it, it is indeed much more comfortable.

Many fish exchanged 10 points of mall reputation for the Shangdang terrain map, but they could only view it in their minds.

So many fish made their own sand trays, and now the exquisite sand trays were placed on the desk.

"Yes. Master has arrived at Xuansi. The terrain around Xuansi is flat and has ample water, which is suitable for garrisoning." Many fish planted a small flag on the sand table.

The geographical location of Shangdang is very important to Qin and Zhao.There will definitely be a fight between the two countries.

"What's going on in Qin?" Zhao Zheng looked at the sand table more carefully by the light of the fire.

"Qin Mo has a strong power in the Qin State and has deep roots. Chu Mo cannot penetrate. We only vaguely learned that the King of Qin sent Zuo Shuchang Wang Lu to lead an army to attack Shangdang. As for the specific marching route, we may have to wait until the army leaves the Qin State. We’ll find out later.”

Zhao Zheng pursed his lips, and his eyes reflected the red fire: "It is better to return to Qin as soon as possible and conquer Qin Mo."

Many Fish: "Qin Mo is so powerful, unlike Qi Mo and Chu Mo, he is desperate. I guess it will take a lot of effort."

"I will help you. Can General Lian complete the defense deployment?"

Many fish shook their heads: "No, judging from Lian Fu's route of transporting grain, the master should be planning to set up a base camp in Daliang Mountain to hoard grain."

Many fish pointed out the location of Daliang Mountain to Zhao Zheng: "Its southeast side is the Dongcang River Valley, and its northwest side is the Xiaodongcang River Valley. These two valleys can point directly to the northwest ridge. If the master is in Yangtou Mountain-Jin A defense line is set up on the front line of Quanshan, and the base camp can communicate with the defense line through the two river valleys."

The way many fish analyze the battle situation is not as jumpy as in the past, but calm and calm, no less than famous generals.

"Duoyu, what do you want to do after returning to Qin? Do you want to continue fighting on the battlefield?" Zhao Zheng suddenly asked.

Many fish were stunned by this sudden change of topic and asked: "I think so."

"Do you like being a general?"

"No, I just recognize a reality. Only war can unify the nine states."

Zhao Zheng looked deeply at Many Fish: "Why are you obsessed with unifying the six countries? Isn't it good to maintain the status quo?"

Many fish rolled their eyes: "You should ask your great-grandfather this question after you return to Qin. Several generations of Qin people have worked hard for hundreds of years to govern, if not for unification, why else?"

"There are many fish, don't roll your eyes, it's very ugly."

Many fish drove Zhao Zheng out of the study: "It's late at night, go to bed quickly."

After Zhao Zheng's fuss, many fishes were tired, extinguished their torches, and fell asleep.

When the rooster crows, many fish that are sleeping in a daze are awakened by their servants.

"Nvjun, there is a group of students here to visit."

Many fish with sleepy eyes said angrily: "Those little brats, what are you doing? They're gone."

"Nvjun is not from the Infant Care Hall, but came from afar to become a disciple. The two leaders are called Li Si and Han Feizi."

who?Li Si and Han Feizi?

Many fish suddenly woke up and said: "Tell them to wait a moment, I will come after washing."

The goal of Li Si, Han Feizi and others was naturally not to seek refuge with many fish, but to become a disciple of Xunzi.

Many fish are the masters of the school, so they naturally want to pay a visit.After a brief exchange of greetings, many fish took them to find Xunzi.

This is actually not in line with etiquette, but who says that many fish have a talent collecting habit?
Xunzi was well-known, and he was used to seeing all kinds of people seeking study and apprenticeship. He just asked everyone why they wanted to study.

When it was Li Si's turn to answer, he was honest: "I was a small official in charge of documents in the state of Chu. I once saw rats eating human feces when I was going to the toilet, but when people came, the rats fled in a hurry. But in the warehouse , rats eat food, but no one takes care of it.”

Xunzi encouraged him to continue speaking kindly and wisely: "What are your thoughts?"

"The virtuous and dishonest of people are just like rats, it depends on where they come from!" Li Si's answer was resolute.

The other students frowned, and some showed disdain.

Because what Li Si means is: if a person wants to get ahead in society, he should be like a rat stealing food in a granary, so that he can do whatever he wants and enjoy himself.

This point of view is too straightforward and naked.

Even though some people agree in their hearts, they firmly refuse to admit it with their mouths.

Xunzi did not express his position, but continued to ask Han Feizi.

"I, I..." Han Feizi became nervous and his stuttering problem showed up.

Xunzi smiled and waited patiently for Han Feizi to tell himself.

Han Feizi, who was only twenty years old, blushed and stumbled and said: "I, this Korean clan, have seen that Korea survives in the cracks and is constantly weakening. I have written to the King of Han several times, but the King of Han cannot use it."

Han Feizi observed that Xunzi was not displeased, and continued: "The state does not seek to appoint talents, but instead uses frivolous behavior and adds merit to it!"

Xunzi nodded slightly: "You want to save the country after you finish your studies."

Han Feizi nodded heavily.

Xunzi did not decide on the spot whether to accept disciples, but asked many fish to arrange accommodation for everyone.

Many fish are happy to live there for a long time, and they become their own people, right?

-

Wang Lu's army marched eastward along the Weishui River, using both water and land. After reaching the meander of the Yellow River, there were two water routes to follow.

One is to go north from the bend of the river to Fenyin, then go eastward along the Fen River, enter the Huishui River in Xintian, and reach the important town of Pilao.

The other one is to cross the Pubang Pass in the east bend of the Yellow River, go up the Sushui River, and arrive at Pilao.

"Chief Zuo, which waterway should we take?"

Wang Hao looked at the turbulent river and chose the second option.

After arriving at Pi Lao, the Qin army continued eastward and crossed the natural dangers of Huangfu.

Huangfu is located to the north of the Yellow River and south of the Taihang Mountains. There is Wuling Pass on the ridge. After passing Wuling Pass, you enter the hinterland of Shangdang.

This also means that Chu Mo can observe the Qin army's movements in time.

Wang Hao had no idea about his marching news. He was remembered by a group of insignificant people, who confirmed and analyzed each other, and finally spread it to many fish through carrier pigeons.

These people may be woodcutters in the mountains, peasants transporting luggage, hunters selling prey, or wandering doctors traveling around the world...

A person who was as humble as an ant and didn't even have his own name, at the moment Juzi was born, once again condensed into a force like a torrent of steel, willing to turn into the sharpest knife in the world and be held in Juzi's hands.

Many fish took apart the bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg, and inside was a small sheepskin roll.

　I drew a topographic map, but I couldn’t find a place to upload the image.
