From external military considerations, once the counterattack on the eastern front is won, the Qi State will actually have no resistance force, and the Mo family has already prepared for the worst, that is, to use the sacrifices of Southern Zheng and Gao Liuyunzhong in exchange for holding Jianghan and expanding in the east.

Although the military strength of Qi is acceptable, they are all disposable armies, and the main force will be eliminated in the first battle, and the rest can only be conscripted peasant soldiers, and the combat effectiveness is negligible.

Moreover, the most pro-Mo region of southwestern Qi may even directly revolt and refuse the conscription of the Marquis of Qi.

If the Eastern Front wins, there are actually many directions to choose first, each with its own advantages.

The remaining cities of Chu can directly stabilize the front line of the Central Plains of Huaibei, and they can directly attack Zhengdi, where the popular base is also good.

After the defeat of Wei on the Eastern Front, it may not even be able to organize a little force, and the intelligence says that Wei is seriously ill and is estimated to die, which is actually the best fight.

However, the meaning of suitability is very clear, once the Eastern Front wins, regardless of anything else, fight Qi first.

Because after defeating the Qi State, the remaining cities of the Chu State could be slowly swallowed, so that almost half of the entire North China Plain was in the hands of the Mo family.

At that time, if Gao Liu Yunzhong and Nan Zheng are really lost, then don't worry.

The Mo family sits on most of the North China Plain east of the Taihang Mountain, northern Jiangsu, the Jianghuai Plain, the land of Wuyue, and the Jianghan Plain, and almost the most essential land of Kyushu has been held in their hands.

Moreover, Shi Shi is also planning for the future.

With the advent of the Firearms and Iron Age, and in terms of the current level of technology in Sishang, at most a hundred years, everything will be different.

Even if it doesn't take a hundred years, it's just that now, in fact, the foreign enemies to worry about no longer need to consider nomads, but the northeast region and Hetao and other places.

As long as the land suitable for cultivation is in their hands, and the nomads and fishermen are not given the opportunity to convert to a mixed agricultural and nomadic pastoralism, they have no chance of winning under iron and firearms.

Maybe even three to five thousand people would be enough to sweep the steppe and establish colonial rule.

The Silk Road communicates the east and the west, once accompanied by the progress of shipbuilding and astronomical navigation, the Silk Road on the road is bound to be abandoned before the emergence of the railway, and the center of gravity of Zhuxia should be to the southeast, control the northeast, stabilize Yongzhou, and not leave the Western Regions for the time being.

After sufficient wealth, after technological advancement, the threat in the west can be easily solved at the lowest cost, and the longer the time, the greater the technological gap between the western desert steppe and the here.

If it is particularly difficult to fight in the future, then what the Mo family has to do is to fight steadily, go north along the coast and then solve the Yan State, bypass the Taihang Mountain, form a three-sided encirclement of the Sanjin, crush the past little by little, and at the same time take the east as the center of gravity to improve a new "nation" consciousness.

Of course, this particularly difficult situation is a very extreme consideration, once the Qi State is destroyed, the remaining Wei Han will not last long at all.

In addition to this rational consideration, the high-level Mohists are not purely rational machines after all, they also have their own perceptual considerations.

Qi State made it like this, and the mainstream of the whole world was "giving land to the people, opening up the field and breaking the well field", and the Qi State actually went in the opposite direction to start strengthening personal bondage and fiefdom rule, which is not accidental, but has a great relationship with the development of industry and commerce in Sishang.

The standard of living in Sishang is far better than elsewhere, and the high-level members of the Mo family know in their hearts that they are sucking the blood around them.

The people in the central and eastern parts of the Qi state were trapped in the land and worked for the fiefdom owners without compensation, the root cause of which was the great demand for food and raw materials, and the need to buy a large number of handicrafts after the industrial and commercial enterprises of the Qi state were crushed by the Sishang.

The result is an extremely deformed economic system.

What the Mo family has always done is the means of "returning the real profit to oneself and the black pot to the people", which is to really want to return to the world as one, completely give up the idea of establishing a country without attacking, and to make Kyushu a country, then the suffering of these farmers in Qi must be solved after all.

Compared with other places, they live too hard, which is due to the sensibility of "aspiring to the world".

It is also an attitude, an attitude that means that Sishang will not attack the country, but will treat Kyushu as the intention of treating everyone equally.

The matter of counterattacking first and attacking Qi was decided in this way.

At the subsequent meeting, Shili overrode the public opinion and personally led the troops to open up the communication lines between Shangcai, Xianghe, and Fuli.

One is to meet the Chu Army, and the other is to familiarize yourself with the front-line combat activities and prepare for the decisive battle later.

After the vote was passed at the meeting, Shi smiled and said: "That being the case, I think we should also arrange the aftermath in case of contingencies." It is not a matter of the next ten or twenty years, but of the next 100 years. In a hundred years, the youngest of you and me probably doesn't know what will happen, and within a hundred years, maybe someone will be able to know who will be in charge of the general direction of Kyushu in a hundred years. ”

Everyone present in the troubled times is a generation of people who value righteousness and neglect life, and the Mo family does not shy away from life and death, and some things must always be decided in advance.

In the next three days, the high-level leaders of the Mo family held a three-day meeting.

In addition to some future arrangements, the most important things at the meeting were two things.

First, negotiate with the Song State, on the basis of ceding a part of the wealth, let the Song Duke announce the abdication and let the Song State be incorporated into the Mo family, the Song land as a county, the Mo family has the right to garrison troops and collect national taxes, and the remaining continuation of the previous policy allows the various counties and the rest of the schools to govern.

This is not difficult, the military power is in the hands of the Mo family, and the economy has long been unified, in fact, it is to go through the motions, make concessions to each other, and unify on the premise of retaining the special status of those schools, anyway, the feudal system of the Song State is actually basically gone, and it is still the road to be taken in the future, and there is no need to carry out a major change to sweep away the old ideas and old systems like the Chu Dynasty.

Second, after the unification of Kyushu in the future, the founding name of the country will be Han, the Han of the splendid stars and the Han of the Milky Way in the sky.

This is the same as the Han of later generations, and the meaning is similar, but closer to the origin.

The Han of later generations is because it is sealed in the Han River, and the reason why the Han Water is called the Han Water is because its trend is the same as that of the Milky Way Star Han in the sky, so the essence of the Han remains unchanged, and it is still the Milky Way in the sky.

The Mo family said that Tianzhi and had a telescope, so they naturally wanted to look up at the sky, and they once said with a smile that they knew that Tianzhi would one day be the sea of stars, and the sea was too close, so they gave such a Han name, and everyone didn't think there was anything wrong.

…………

More than ten days later, Song Kingdom, Mulberry Forest Society.

It took less than three years to trust Song Chengcheng to make the final sacrifice in the name of Song Gong in the Sanglin Society.

This time, the sacrifice did not mention the Mandate of Heaven and other mysterious things, but used the Heavenly Will.

The gist is that Shang Tang, the ancestor of the Song Kingdom, destroyed Xia in the past, not because he had a personal enmity with Xia, but because Xia Wei brutalized the people and could not make the world profitable.

Now the Mo family inherits the will of Dayu, and wants to end the troubled times, so that the world is stable, and everyone loves each other, which is exactly the wish of the ancestor Shang Tang.

The descendants of Shang Tang are incompetent, unable to know the Heavenly Will, and incapable of making the people of the world benefit and peace.

Now that the wisdom of the people has been opened, the people can understand how to benefit themselves, and there is no longer a need for a hereditary ruler, so the descendants of Shang Tang must give up power, which is the will of the true inheritance of the ancestor Shang Tang, and the ancestors will definitely protect the descendants of the practice.

After Shang Tang destroyed the summer, agricultural tools were no more than stones, and weapons were no more than bronze tools, so Shang Tang's policy was in line with the world at that time. The Mohists affirmed Shang Tang's policy at that time.

But the problem is that the Mohists have a special evaluation, which is called "in".

Even if it was Yao Shun, the policy at that time was good governance, but now it can not be regarded as good governance, because it is no longer in line with today's situation, but it cannot be said that Yao Shun's policy at that time was not beneficial to the world.

The same is true for SenseTime.

Therefore, affirming the beginning does not mean affirming the present, nor does it mean separating the past.

Therefore, the Duke of Song said that if today is no longer what it was at the beginning, the descendants of Yin Shang could not continue to rule, and were willing to return to the people to pay tribute to their ancestors.

After the sacrifice, the Duke of Song abdicated, declaring that all hereditary rights were null and void, and all descendants would be equal people.

He let out a long sigh of relief as he read it from the book.

The world is already like this, even if it is as strong as Chu, it is still the same ending, let alone the Song Kingdom?

The general trend of the world is mighty and unstoppable, and Song Gong feels that abdicating like this is the best choice.

His father chose him to succeed to the throne precisely because he was mediocre and unambitious, so that after the change of the Song Kingdom, he threw his ambitious younger brother to Sishang as a proton to "study".

The military power of the entire Song State was in the hands of the "instructors" sent by the Mo family, and the Song State used the coins issued by Sishang, bought the goods of Sishang, spoke a language that was almost universally used with Sishang, and used the morality of Sishang, which was indeed the best ending.

Otherwise, what can be done? A division of the Song Guoyi Division was stationed in Shangqiu, and the Song State Princes could not control it at all from top to bottom, so what was the use of opposing it?

Coupled with the administration of the hundred schools of thought in the Song State, the Duke of Song has actually become a mascot for a long time.

After he succeeded to the throne as the Duke of Song, he worried all day long that the Mo family would "sweep away all silverfish" and deprive him of everything. Once that's the case, he doesn't actually have the strength to resist.

Fortunately, after the transformation of the Mo family, the economic foundation of the Song family has been completely changed.

First of all, the Song Duke allocated the land to the people for cultivation, recognized the people's right to use the Lu land of the Song Dynasty, and most of it had been forcibly redeemed by the people and returned to private ownership.

The Gong clan also drove out the people of some land outside Shangqiu City, took back the right to use it, and let them go to other places to reclaim it, and the Mo family paid this money, and the concentrated land Song Gong hired special people to manage it.

In addition, there are also some trades, workshops and other shares in the Sishang industry, which is also the livelihood of Song Gong in the future.

The change of the economic base allows the Mo family not to worry about the Song Dynasty, you have been actively or passively forced to transform, and there is no selfish grudge between you and me, then you can let you go, which is not the same thing as the monarch and ministers of the Chu State.

As for the consultation of the political Yuan Dayin, that is a fart, Song Gong still has the value of use, the consultation of the political Yuan Yin is useless, because the consultation of the political Yuan Yin can be elected, and after the election, the Inquiry Yuan decided that the Song State was merged into the Mo family and a part of the Kyushu world in the future, and the Song Kingdom was needed to go to the Sanglin Society to sacrifice but did not need the old Inquiry Yuan Yin.

There was not much to be done in the Song Dynasty, and although the situation was different from place to place, after all, the old ruling class had been smashed and the relations of production had been changed after the war, and in the end they would always end up in the same place.

The abdication of the Duke of Song meant that the Mo family could bypass the non-offensive alliance and officially send troops from the Song State to attack the remnants of the Chu State.
