That being said, to reassure everyone, in fact, I was a little nervous.

Now that the Sishang Tianxia faction is the mainstream, he used the Tianxia faction to suppress the non-offensive faction and instigated the fanaticism of benefiting the world.

This matter is good in the long run, but in the short term, there must be backlash, that is, it must be done no matter what.

Otherwise, if public opinion boils and is suppressed again, it will be a chaotic trend of thought, and the public opinion of the previous years will be meaningless; Future wars of unification will also be affected.

Even in order to completely suppress the non-offensive faction, this battle must be fought.

The situation of the Song State is a very embarrassing existence for Sishang, if the Song State can ensure complete neutrality and not be controlled by the rest of the princes, it is actually the most favorable situation for Sishang.

In that case, the Song State is nominally independent, but in fact it is a market, a raw material base, and a reserve population replenishment place in Sishang, as well as a very perfect buffer state.

Five years ago, Shi gave up the southwest region of Qi and returned all the occupied land and the rich Wenping original area of Qi against public opinion, in order not to want the Mo family to be involved in the chaos of the Central Plains prematurely.

The topography of the Song State was more sensitive than that of the southwest of Qi.

The various policies and covenants after the coup d'état of the Song State twenty years ago were actually for one purpose: to make the Song State separate and make itself a nominal state, but in fact it was one independent fief and city after another.

It could have taken advantage of the contradiction between the imperial father and the rest of the nobles about centralization or decentralization, but now the two sides have abandoned their previous suspicions and at least cooperated in front of the enemy, which makes it difficult for the Mo family to do it.

The Song Kingdom was too close to Sishang, and suffered from the fact that industry and commerce were not developed enough, and that industry and commerce had developed.

The pain of the old era has not been erased, and the pain of the new era has come, and the peasant families are much more radical than the Mohists in the matter of equality, and they call themselves true egalitarians, both against the old aristocracy and against the new aristocracy who have transformed into business landlords.

The large number of landless peasants in the Song State made the influence of more radical farmers in the Song State soar in recent years.

The Mo family has been controlling the situation in Sishang, but what those nobles have done has made the Mo family unable to control it.

Under the raging anger, if the peasant family rises up, it will be much more radical than the Mo family, and the nobles are still dying, and in this current situation, if no troops are sent to quickly pacify the situation of the Song Kingdom, then the world will be shaken.

Hatred can be accumulated, and it goes both ways, the nobles can kill the common people, and the common people can kill the nobles in turn.

It's naturally okay to kill, but now it's not good if you kill too much and Song Guo is too chaotic, at least it's not good for Sishang.

After saying those words that reassured everyone, Shi said: "If we can control the situation in the Song Kingdom within a month, the situation can be said to be completely favorable to us. ”

"After Gongzi Bao took the Song Dynasty, all countries also wanted to send troops to intervene, but as soon as the political situation in the Song State was stable, all countries had to hesitate to give up."

"Now we are still standing behind the Song State, and in a month's time, it is impossible for Wei, Chuhan, and all countries to be ready for war."

"If the emperor's father Yue Ling dares to shout anti-ink, we will let him die as soon as he finishes shouting. After controlling the situation of the Song State, he relied on the envoys to solve the follow-up problems. ”

Gong Zaoye, who was already old, said: "The imperial father's family plus the rest of the nobles of the Song Kingdom, if the army is combined, there will be about 50,000, and it is impossible to have more." ”

"But they are scattered all over the place, we can defeat them individually, in fact, what we have to face, that is, the private soldiers of the imperial father's family and some nobles in the western part of the Song Kingdom in his fiefdom, 30,000 at most."

"Six Fingers has been waiting in the Song Realm, three infantry divisions plus a cavalry division, should be enough to quickly defeat them."

"But a general mobilization is still necessary."

"Our current standing righteous division has no problem dealing with Song, Qi, and Yue, but it is not enough to quickly make the countries give up the idea of going to war against us."

"Whether to fight or not, it is not up to us, we can only reason according to the art of saying and knowing, Wei Chuhan may not send troops, but people's hearts are unpredictable, and we must also be prepared for them in case they send troops."

Everyone agrees that it is better to be prepared than not to be prepared.

Shi Jia Dolphin smiled bitterly: "This is equivalent to spending money to buy soldiers." A general mobilization costs a lot, and even if it is not fought, the mobilization must be maintained at least until the situation in the Song State is stable, all countries are sure that they cannot send troops, and the diplomatic mediation is over. ”

"To say the least, it's three months. Grain, munitions, horses, summer harvest...... All of these things have to be affected. ”

"However, if we start fighting and mobilize, we may lose even more, and I agree to mobilize to scare Wei Chuhan."

Shi looked at the others again, and everyone nodded in agreement, and everyone voted for a while, and all of them passed the opinion of immediately sending troops to the Song State and Sishang General Mobilization.

Everyone present understands that war is in the service of politics.

To fight or not to fight, you have to think about how to end it before you start.

If countries send troops regardless of it, there is no need to think that a protracted war may continue until either the countries are tired of fighting or the world is one.

But if the countries do not send troops, the future situation of the Song State is something that everyone must think clearly.

The vassal states under the Zhou rites were the means of ruling based on the patriarchal system, ritual law, blood relationship, and feudal system.

But the old means of domination have become ineffective, and the new ones are not yet mature.

For example, the Han Dynasty and the Qin system in later generations, in fact, there are still a lot of differences, the Western Han Dynasty is regarded as a civilian emperor, relying on the self-cultivation of agriculture to maintain the system, for the heroes, the rich, the big clan has always been suppressed, the Yellow Emperor with the help of the power of the common people to suppress the strong, until the end of the Han Dynasty Haoqiang can not be suppressed completely.

This is the first choice of most monarchies after the collapse of the patriarchal feudal system, otherwise it is impossible to completely suppress the aristocracy, and the bulk of yeoman farmers is the solid foundation of the imperial system, and it can also be regarded as a means of greasing and whitewashing.

With the rise of Sishang and the spread of new technologies, most of the changes in various countries have this tendency, to be the monarch of the people, rather than the princes of the Son of Heaven and the king of doctors.

This kind of change is exactly what Shisuo has been vigilant about.

Because in this way, it is easy to appear such a trend of thought as the Qi and Zhao people.

As for the Song State, it is even more impossible to allow them to succeed in centralizing power, so they can only find a way to continue to mix sand and muddy the waters.

Sishang needs a powerful Song State as a neighbor, and it doesn't want a centralized Song State as a neighbor, but only a loose, chaotic, fragmented Song State that can only protect itself and cannot attack.

The emperor's father, Yue Ling, was ambitious, but he was too wary of the people's riots and the power of Sishang, so he could only choose to make peace with the nobles.

Dai Cong is ambitious, he is not the biggest nobleman in the first place, it is better to give up his own things, and instead be a "spokesman for the common people", so as to seize power.

Sishang has long had a consensus on this point, and he has already scolded Dai Cong for dressing up his camp prostitute according to what Sishang likes, and he can please Sishang today, and he can also please Wei Chuhan tomorrow.

However, the Mo family started as a spokesperson for the common people, so they can't explicitly oppose Dai Cong's changes, and they must support it.

Once the army is dispatched, it will definitely sweep away the old nobles of the Song Kingdom.

Either choose to give up the fiefdom and buy it in an almost robbing way, and redeem the new big mu with the yield of the small mu in the old era for 20 years, which is actually similar to robbery, but it sounds a little better; Either flee to another country, confiscate the fief and divide it again.

Because it was impossible for Dai Cong to seize power under the internal rules of the aristocracy, since he couldn't get it, he had to destroy what others might get.

Therefore, he borrowed the equality of the Mohists and advocated in the Song State that the people elected the sages as the Da Yin of the Inquiry Yuan, that is, he jumped out of the constraints of the Junzi Yuan and borrowed the power of the common people to come to power.

He also saw that the Mo family did not have the intention of annexing the Song State for the time being, so he could use the power of the yeoman farmers to become the Great Yin of the Inquiry Yuan, reorganize the original Junzi Yuan and the Common People's Court, and then slowly regain power.

The Mo family needs a Dai Cong to stabilize the situation of the Song State and turn the Song State into an aristocratic coup, at least a noble coup d'état that covers his ears and steals the bell: if he doesn't even hide his ears, even if Chu Wei doesn't want to care, it's hard to find a reason; Dai Cong also knew that the Mo family needed him, so he did his best to promote the righteousness of his heart in the common people.

Once the matter succeeds, a large number of nobles will either die or flee, and a large amount of land will be vacant, and the internal contradictions of the Song State will be resolved immediately, and it is also a sure thing that Dai Cong will become the first real elected Da Yin of the Song State.

The strange system after the coup d'état of the Song State twenty years ago can be said to be a matter of course.

Etiquette collapsed, the patriarchal system collapsed, and a feudal vassal state needed a new political system to bridge and integrate a country.

The whole world is not the king's land, and the Son of Heaven seals the princes to guard his land, so the princes have a country and a doctor has a family. Now that the patriarchal system has collapsed and rituals have collapsed, what is the legal principle for the existence of the country?

Before the collapse of etiquette, the nobles belonged to the nobility and the monarch belonged to the monarch, and the monarch had no right to manage the nobles' fiefs or levy taxes on the nobles' lands, except for tribute and feudal military obligations.

is like the coup d'état of the Lu State, and the reaction of the various nobles and noble retainers in the Sandu incident: the nobles' retainers are not the vassals of the monarch.

However, with the collapse of etiquette and the disintegration of the patriarchal system, the vassal states were in an embarrassing situation.

The royal power has not yet been centralized, and the power of the nobility is still great, and it is said that this is a country, but in fact it is divided; It is said that it is not a country, but it is seen as a country externally.

Originally, under the patriarchal system, the monarch only needed to govern the nobles directly under the nobility, and the nobles governed the retainers, and the country could effectively exist as a whole.

The disintegration of the patriarchal system created a situation in which the three families were divided into Jin, the Tian family and the Qi dynasty, the seven Mu Chao Zheng, and the Song family were jointly governed.

In particular, the Song State changed from the original patriarchal feudal system to a republican situation of monarchs and nobles with large surnames, restricting each other and sharing powers.

The monarch is not easy to speak, there are contradictions within the nobility, and the existence of a monarch needs to be maintained.

Before the Spring and Autumn Period, the clan system, the difference between the country and the wilderness, and the tradition of the people of the country interfering in politics made the people of the national capital have a say in political affairs.

For example, in the Zheng-Chu War twenty years ago, the people of Zheng opposed the war against Chu, and fled in battle and were all captured; For example, because of foreign policy, the people of the country opposed the expulsion of the monarch.

So twenty years ago, on the basis of "Xiao Situ has the responsibility of asking all the people to move the capital, establish a monarch, and meet the alliance", on the basis of the original aristocratic and oligarchic republic of the three surnames in the Song Kingdom, the Junziyuan and the Commoners' Court were created.

At that time, it was for the sake of a fight between the Junziyuan and the Commoners' Court in the future, because the power of the nobles was still very strong at that time, and the people did not know what kind of power they should have.

Now that the mission has ended, Keshi will never allow a cohesive political system to emerge in the Song State, and must continue to maintain the situation that the Song State can only defend itself and cannot centralize power in line with the current situation.
