Chapter 186: The Sun of Mount Tai (4)

When the old man heard the news that Tian Qing's army was not moving, he sighed: "Qingzi led the army in the past years, bravely and diligently, and was not afraid of the head and tail. Now, why hasn't Yingyi been captured yet? If you can't win, you will be in a dilemma...... That's a ......."

He shook his head, sighed, unspeakably helpless, and said for a while: "Don't forget to be in Ju, don't forget to be in Ju!" The brave decisions of the past, do you have to cringe when you are old? ”

This fashion has no Le Yi to break the story of Yu Ju and Jimo in the seventy-two cities, which is difficult to understand in Ju, it is said that Guan Zhong advised Qi Huan Gong to be as brave and enterprising as when he was young in Ju as an exiled son.

The retainer understood this time, and he didn't understand military strategy, but he felt that since the head of the family said so, it was even right.

In the past, the head of the family was also a retainer of Xiang Ziniu, and he was promoted from sergeant to sergeant in several battles of invasion of Lu, and he was the head of the four wells of the field.

After Xiang Ziniu failed in the struggle for power, the old man asked his son to attack and punish the position of sergeant, and made his son a vassal of the Tian family, and he showed his loyalty and did not become a vassal of Tian He.

Liang's father was originally from Ludi, and the people here were not the basic plate of the Qi State, so the peasants and soldiers in the fiefdom were called contemptuous masters.

According to the Zhou system, the sergeant is the commander of a brigade, and when King Wu is cutting down, the sergeant has to seal a well, and the field of this well is a fief, and the peasants on the fief are bound to the land, which can be slaves or serfs.

In addition to the fiefdom, they also had jurisdiction over the farmers of the land of about Jiujing, who were required to provide one chariot, three baggage carts, and the accompanying apprentices to form a brigade of Zhou in wartime, with the sergeant being the brigade commander in wartime and the local governor in peacetime.

After Guan Zhong's reform, the military system of Qi State changed, but after the centralization of power, it was the Rebellion of the Five Princes, and the places where the centralized military system was changed at that time were also near Linzi, and Liang's father did not implement it.

The people in these fiefdoms outside Liang's father's city, with the disappearance of the difference between the country and the wilderness, also need to join the army. Not only did he have to join the army, but because he was originally a Lu person, he not only had to join the army, but also had to pay tithes to the monarch in addition to the feudal obligation rent to the feudal lord.

The Qi people near Linzi had little tax and had to fulfill their military obligations, and the conquered people in Lu, Song, Zheng and other places had to fulfill their military obligations when necessary.

The nominal Sijing fiefdom is actually more numerous, and the people outside their own fiefdom also need to fulfill the feudal public land obligations to him. A fief is akin to a private property, while a fief is vested in the king, at least in theory.

The fiefdoms of the nobles were always increasing, and the nobles could be rewarded for each battle.

At the time of the war, the local people went out on the expedition, and it was more difficult to pay all kinds of Qiu Jia Tax, 12 taxes, feudal rent, usury, etc., with the gradual emergence of private ownership, the land grant system was no longer so strict, and a large amount of private land was also concentrated in the hands of the aristocracy.

In addition, the nobles still have their subordinates to take refuge, and the nobles' fiefdoms are no longer within the feudal obligations of the monarch, and the fiefs are for the purpose of recruiting private soldiers and sacrificing ancestors, and the territories outside the fiefs are the ones that need to fulfill the feudal obligations for the monarch.

In this way, the land and labor of the nobles continued to increase, and the original four-well sealing field had already been broken.

In fact, the sealing of the four wells has also violated the etiquette, and the sergeant granted only one well, but that was the regulation of the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, and now the population wealth and land are increasing, and few people abide by this regulation.

The retainers who bowed down had roughly calculated that the fiefdom, Lutian, private land, etc. of the head of the family were added together, and after adding the later rewards, the actual land he actually owned was about 12 wells, that is, about more than 10,000 mu.

In the book territory of about 30 wells other than the feudal and private fields, not all of the public land that was nominally cultivated by the common people of the territory and not by the serfs was paid to the king.

These people who "dare to do things for personal gain" are not the farmers in the fields of the nobles, but the farmers in the fields under their jurisdiction.

This time, the son-in-law went out with Liang's father, and as the commander of the brigade, according to the rank obligation, he carried four chariots and about 300 apprentices, and also carried about 20 private soldiers in his own fiefdom, which was the real main force of the battle.

No one thought that the situation of the Qi and Mo War would develop like this, and now the Mo family's army has broken through Qi City with lightning speed, and there are not many private soldiers in the fiefdom, even if they are all there, how can they resist the Mo family's righteous teachers?

Besides, he is only a sergeant after all, and his strength is not good, and those superiors and doctors have all failed, and they are not good at the sergeant?

Now there are rumors that the Mo family wants to divide the land, which is intensifying.

It's better here, after all, there is no situation in the first battle of Nanjishui, and a large number of farmers in the army have been "bewitched" and returned to their hometowns, after all, the army is a natural organization, and being captured is far better than the scattered organization of farmers, and it is the easiest to publicize.

Now that the city has begun to be chaotic, the farmers in these rural places outside the city may have the opportunity to leave hundreds of miles away only after following the feudal lord for the rest of their lives, and the Mo family does not have so much manpower to take root in the countryside of various countries, and can only have enough influence in the cities of various countries, after all, the cities at this time are also dominated by agriculture.

Now the nobles of Qi have fled north, or into Linzi, or crossed the Great Wall, and few of them remain in their own fields.

The retainers were worried, they had been persuaded once a few days ago, and today the Mo family has begun to release rumors that they are going to divide the land, so he has to persuade again.

So he said, "The head of the house...... I'm afraid it will be a little difficult for the Mo family to come this time. In Liang's father city, most of the gentlemen have retreated north, don't you leave? ”

"Zongzi is in the army, and there is no danger. If you stay here, I'm afraid Zongzi will be worried......"

"Why don't you pack up your carriage and leave immediately. Now that Shang Ke can still go, I heard that the Mo family is not strictly investigated......"

"Zongziyi is in the army and participated in the massacre of Wucheng, but I am afraid that the Mo family will take advantage of this to make trouble."

This is what the retainers are most worried about, and the boiling edict worn by the Mo family has already spread throughout the Qi country.

The Mo family expressed it very clearly, this is not the hatred between the Qi country and the Mo family, nor the hatred between the Qi people and the Fei people, but the hatred between the princes and gentlemen and the common people, and those who participated in the Wucheng massacre must be judged.

In particular, the Mo family made it clear that Tian Qing and Gongziwu must die, and the law of the Mo family is that those who kill people and injure people will be punished, and the prince will not be able to avoid it.

Mo said that the rules of the Mo family at this time were more stringent, and it was true that the son of the Qin Mo giant in the original history killed someone, and Qin Jun personally asked, and the Qin Mo giant still killed the son to correct the Mo family's law.

After repeated persuasion by the retainers, the old man snorted and said, "I won't go." ”

"Isn't the Mo family a handout? When they have given a handout, I will give them a handout. ”

"If the Mo family kills me unreasonably, I can let the world know that the Mo family is unrighteous and ignore, this is exactly seeking benevolence and benevolence, what is the pity of dying? Didn't Bo Yi Shuqi know that he would starve to death? They chose to starve to death, because they asked for it themselves, and the ancient sages could do this, couldn't I do it? ”

"What sin am I? Why did you run away? The husband stood up to the sky, innocent and did not escape, and if he escaped, he felt guilty. ”

"The Mohists talk about righteousness and the will of heaven, not the mandate of heaven. But no matter what you talk about, the good or bad in this world can't be changed, right? Can't you say that talking about the Mandate of Heaven is good, and talking about the Mandate of Heaven is bad? Virtue is eternal. ”

As soon as the retainers heard the words "seeking benevolence and benevolence", they were already shocked into a cold sweat, and the head of the heart Taoist family was afraid that he had already sprouted the will to die! This is to use his life to let the world know that the Mo family is unrighteous and unkind, not only to seek benevolence, but also to spare his life?

But the retainers didn't want to die, and they didn't want the head of the family to die, so they persuaded: "Zongzi participates in the affairs of Wucheng, and the Mo family ......"

When the old man heard this, he shouted angrily: "Silence! Guilty or not, why should it be judged by the righteousness of the Mohists? ”

This involves some irreconcilable things, and the retainers didn't dare to speak, so they had to change their angles and say: "Zongzi is in the army and in the palace, and he is the enemy of the Mo family, and he is afraid that the Mo family will use this to punish the crime." With the rules of the world, there is also the punishment of the Yi tribe......"

For example, of course there are rules for killing the whole family today, the old man is not unaware of it, nor does he know the policies of the Mo family, but when he heard the retainers say this, he raised his head and laughed: "Well said! There is a punishment from the Yi tribe. Punishment is punished, and business punishment is also punishment. Punishment is not necessarily a sin. ”

"I can be attacked by the Yi people, but I don't admit the charges given to me by the Mo family. What is my son's sin? ”

The retainer said in his heart, "Master, why are you so stubborn?" But he said: "I am afraid that the son will be punished by the father." ”

The old man asked again, "I can accept the punishment of the Son and the Father." But what is my son's sin? ”

"The food of the king, the matter of loyalty. Since he is a minister and obeys the king's orders, what is the crime? ”

Not only is he not guilty, but he deserves praise. This is a loyal person, and he will not surrender and flee directly because his father is trapped. ”

"Even if the righteousness of the Mo family is passed on to the world, then will disloyalty become good? Could it be that the two armies should be rewarded for surrendering directly at war? ”

"If this is really the case, the Mo family can be described as immoral. The world knows it, how can it win the heart of the world? ”

"Compared to Bo Yi Shuqi, don't they eat Zhou Su, and they have to be praised as sages? Did the warrior king punish them for this? If King Wu is punished for not eating Zhou Su, he is afraid that there will be no more loyal people in the world and will deviate from morality. ”

"If I don't leave today, I will sacrifice the virtues of the world with my blood."

"If the Mo family wants to kill me because my son is loyal to the Qi State, then the Mo family is unkind."

"In the past, Uncle Boyi saw King Wu cut down, stopped and persuaded him, and after setting the world, he didn't eat Zhou Su and starved to death in Shouyang Mountain, loyal to one virtue, no matter when, whether it is the Mandate of Heaven or the Mandate of Heaven, I don't believe that it can become bad! If the good or the bad are reversed, the Mo family will perish. ”

"In this way, I exchange my red blood and head for the world to know that the Mo family is unkind. I seek kindness and benevolence, which is exactly what I want. ”

"If the Mo family divides my fiefdom, it will be immoral."

"The whole world is not the king's land. The Son of Heaven seals the princes as the country, the princes as the doctor as the family, and the doctor as the scholar, which is the great righteousness of the world. ”

"The land in the world belongs to the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven gave it to the princes, the princes gave it to the doctor, and the doctor gave it to me, why did the Mo family snatch it? What is the difference between this and a robber who robs someone else in the market? ”

"Will the people of the world choose to believe in robbers and thieves?"

"If the Mo family divides my land, it will also let the world know that the Mo family has no virtue, and I exchange my fief for the world to know that the Mo family has no virtue, and it is also to seek benevolence and benevolence, what is the pity to die?"
