warring states careerist

Chapter 389
Seven of the 25 high-ranking Mohists were here. Except for the four who officially participated in the battle, the remaining three had been sticking to the city wall during the daytime battle and were responsible for logistics and other things.

Before drafting this suggestion letter, I had already discussed it with everyone, but it was mainly his idea.

Everyone thought about it for a while, but they didn't object. They just felt that if they thought about it themselves, they might not be able to think so far.

These few suggestions are, as usual, interlocking, for the sake of "more time" that Shi has been talking about before.

According to Shi's statement, if the Mohist masters the will of heaven, then time is on the side of the Mohist.The longer the time, the more Mohists, and the more people who can govern morally according to the rules of Mohism, the more wealth will be accumulated in the Surabaya Basin.

Starting from Wei, Han, Qiyue and the five-party alliance of the Mohists, these proposals made full use of the contradictions among the nobles and monarchs of various countries, and bought time for the Mohists who survived in the cracks.

The conflict between Jin and Chu can be fought for three to five years.The relationship between Qi Yue and the three Jins can ensure that the three Jins are unable to enter Sishang, and at the same time prevent the Qi people from entering Si, and at the same time make the Yue people a threat to Qi.

Zheng Guo can delay Wei and Han for several years. If Zheng is uncertain, he cannot take Song, and Song cannot get involved in Sishang. Song Guo will soon face the expiration of the ten-year agreement, and there will be another chaos.

The current situation in Surabaya is very beneficial to the Mohist family. If the Song Dynasty can calm down the conflict, then the Mohisthism can really stand shoulder to shoulder with the world's most powerful countries.

But how long it will take, no one can be sure.In the current situation, everyone in the Mohists believes that the longer the time, the better, so they have to think of ways to turn the three Jins against each other.

If this incident had happened in the past, it would have violated the morality of Mohist non-gong.But now, the Mohist line has been determined. As the Mohist gradually became independent and no longer placed their hopes on the princes, at least in the eyes of these seven people, there was nothing wrong with this matter.

Perhaps other factions within the Mohist family will question this matter, but the use of the succession issue between Zhao Ji's younger brother and Zhao Ji's son to make Wei Guo focus on the north can only be limited to a small area after all. Discussion will not cause a large-scale sensation.

Gong Zaoye thought about the friends he had made in Zhao State in the past, and said: "In the past, Zhao Ji liked music, and Mohists didn't enjoy music, so it was difficult for Mohist people to be active in Zhao."

"At that time, there were two well-known musicians in Zhengdi, named Gun and Shi. They knew that Zhao Ji liked music, so they went to Zhaodi. Zhao Ji wanted to give these two musicians [-] mu of land. persuade."

"Three Jins have the same origin, Zhao people now appoint Gong Zhonglian, Niu Hu, Xun Xin, Xu Yue, etc. .Some methods of our Mo family can really be used.”

"Now Zhao Ji's younger brother is Zhao Hou, and his son Zhang is young. Do you mean that there will always be problems between Zhao Ji's younger brother and his son in the future?"

Zhao Guo's name, can not help but think of the dynasty that later generations took Zhao as their surname, and the situation is similar, and the relationship between elder brothers and younger brothers is probably the same.

This kind of thing, taking history as a mirror, will inevitably cause big problems in the future.

Zhao Ji's younger brother is not the Duke of Zhou, and I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. If Zhao Ji really wanted his younger brother to do the job of assisting the Duke of Zhou to become king, his younger brother would not be able to take the throne.

Moreover, according to the news from Zhaodi, Zhao Ji's younger brother's position itself was a kind of compromise, supported by some nobles in the country, and Wei Guo's figure was naturally indispensable.

Zhao Ji's younger brother could not be counted as being in a wrong position, and finally had the support of the nobles, but when son Zhang came of age, there would always be problems between son Zhang and his uncle, son Chao.

According to the age of Zhao Ji's younger brother, it is estimated that this matter will be within a dozen years, or even earlier. This needs to be planned in advance, otherwise it will be difficult to have enough influence if this method is used temporarily. It is difficult to develop according to the established plan.

If Mr. Zhao doesn't fight for the throne, Wei Guo has no reason to fully intervene in Zhao's internal affairs, and it needs a certain reason to turn against him.

Hearing what Gongzaoye said, he said with a smile, "Actually, since the Zhao State has honored the virtuous and practiced benevolence and righteousness, some methods of the Mohists can naturally be implemented in the Zhao State."

"But in fact, it's not just a question that can be practiced in Zhao State, but some skills of Mohism are most suitable for development in Zhao State."

Shi said again: "Don't forget the stirrups and ironware! Zhao's land is close to Loufan and Linhu in the north, and there are many fine horses. The Wei people block the way to the south. What they need most now is to go north, from Loufan and Linhu. Hu these barbarians seized the land and population, supplemented by the Chinese education of benevolence and righteousness."

"In the past, my two masters once said that if the Zhao people went north to get Jiuyuan and Hetao, they could go south to attack Qin. However, the Zhao people used to use chariots, and Lin Hulou mostly used riding and shooting skills, so it was difficult to attack. "

"Nowadays, our Mo family has stirrups and iron tools. The soldiers of Zhu Xia will fight against Lin Hu Loufan. I'm afraid we can fight five against one."

"As the saying goes, if a country is weak, it will be close to its neighbors, and if a country is strong, it will make friends from far away and attack it from close. From the perspective of the Wei people in the next 20 years, it is the biggest obstacle to my Mohism's righteousness in the world. We need a country that cannot touch Surabaya, but can restrain Wei. The strong support of the people. I think the Chu people will lose in this battle. They used to rely on Chu to control the Wei people, but now they need to think in advance about a helper who can restrain the Wei people."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gongzaoye immediately understood the key point.

The people of Zhao will not be in conflict with the Mohists for the time being, and the area around Sishang has always been a battlefield for the four kingdoms of Qi, Yue, Wei, and Chu to contend for hegemony.

The Yue people were beaten and disabled by the Mohists, replacing the power of the Yue people in Sishang, so a strong Zhao country is just the help that the Mohists urgently need, to give the Mohists more time, and to train more people who "practice the righteousness of the Mohists and benefit the world." "Taxi talent.

Zhao has many horses, and the tactics of stirrups and stirrup cavalry are exactly what the Zhao people need urgently.Expanding to the north, Lin Hulou is troubled by the new tactics of stirrup cavalry, firearms, and chariot defense. I am afraid that he will not need a unparalleled general like Wu Qi. Exploit thousands of miles.

This is exactly a point where the Mohists can cut in, and this can be clearly stated.And those secret Mohists will naturally have other ways to infiltrate into Zhao Guo, and participate in the future succession battle between Gongzizhang and Gongzichao.

In terms of the mastery of firearms and stirrup cavalry, no one in the world can surpass the Mohist school, and Shi entrusted the Zhao people's strategy of going north as mentioned by the two masters, which can be regarded as finding a way out for the Zhao country.

And in a short time, it will not threaten the Mo family.One day when the state of Wei is doomed, the Mo family need not be afraid of a powerful state of Zhao who has learned new tactics, the world will still be unified after all.

I know that the later King Zhao Wuling will ride and shoot in Hufu, and he is going to go a step further and directly get the stirrups, firearms and the like.It would take at least a hundred years for the nomads to master these skills and complete the transformation. If they were still afraid of things like random chaos in a hundred years, it would be unfounded to worry about it.

I feel that during the decades when the Mohists have been tossing in the Central Plains, those feudal states close to the northern border like Yanzhao can't let them idle, they have to make some contributions to the future "world", why not go and fight the nomads Got it.

With Wei, Qi, and Han as buffers, it would be difficult for the northern countries to have a direct conflict with the Mohists.

The alliance between Wei, Qi, Han, Yue and the Mohists can basically be regarded as a certainty. Wei Guo will not refuse to suppress Qi Guo. This is basically for the next ten years.

As for Zhao Guo's development to the north, it may be for the sake of ten years later, and it is for the sake of the world.

Nomads are now just tribes using bone arrows. If they do not occupy land suitable for farming, it will be difficult to have the potential of a semi-nomadic and semi-farming empire. Solving it early will save trouble in the future.

From Yi Shi's point of view, the countries of Xia are now in a "belligerent" period. If things like stirrups, ironware, muskets, and wagon camps help Zhao Guo to reform, he wants to come to a Zhao country to clean up forests and hulou troubles until the grasslands are wiped out. no problem.There is no reason why national strength is crushed, and technology is crushed even more.

Even without Li Mulianpo, as long as the strength is strong enough to break through tricks with strength, Zhao people can still open up thousands of miles.

This will not only prevent the Zhao people from participating in the Central Plains dispute in a short period of time, but also arouse the panic and suspicion of the Wei people. At the same time, once the strength is reached, even if there is no civil strife over the succession rights of Gongzi Chao and Gongzi Zhang, it is inevitable that Wei and Zhao will turn against each other.

After thinking for a while, he said again: "I think this time, taking advantage of the opportunity of inviting all countries to join the alliance, we should send one of us who can speak eloquently to take advantage of the shocking situation of the Lushui War to go to Zhao Guo On the bright side, we will cooperate with the Zhao people to obtain more horses, which will also benefit us in the short term.”

"I think this matter should be written more in the suggestion letter. I think everyone can understand the meaning of the alliance, but if the matter of Zhao Guo is not explained clearly, some people may think it is too fashionable. It's early, don't worry."

"I still say that, those who don't plan for the world are not enough for a moment. Those who don't plan for the world are not enough for a corner."

Gong Zaoye nodded in conviction, and worriedly said: "This matter is written clearly, and everyone can understand it. It's just that now... there is a shortage of manpower. [-]% of the non-aggressive alliance of the fifteen countries is short of people everywhere. There are fewer people going to Zhao State. , I’m afraid it won’t be effective. If there are too many people going there, there may not be enough people here.”

"However, this matter still needs to be discussed by everyone. How many people to send, how to implement it, and even whether it is possible to send some non-Mohist people who are studying in Peiyi, all need to be discussed..."

He glanced at Shi, and said solemnly: "When it's time to discuss, I support this opinion."

He made a statement in advance, indicating that he would support Shi's idea when it came to the fellowship.After he took the lead, the rest of the people also nodded one after another, and took up their pens again. After carefully writing down the importance of Zhao Di's affairs, everyone signed their names one after another.

After sealing it with wax, ask the rider to send it back to Pei County overnight.
