The secret envoy of the nobles of Fei has passed the news of Fei to Tian He, the Marquis of Qi, and Tian He has gathered a group of cronies and ministers, and most of them are surnamed Tian.

The matter of Fei Guo finally can't get around the Mo family in Sishang.

A minister said: "The matter of the country is not determined by the fee. In the past year, in the first battle of the water, the Fei National Alliance swore not to attack and entered the African Alliance. Defend the righteousness of not attacking, and its oath: Whoever attacks the alliance because of injustice, all the countries in the alliance will strike at it together. To love allies is to love oneself. ”

"There are a lot of sages in the Mo family, such as poultry slippery, smelting, public smelting, etc., all of whom are outstanding people in the world. In the battle of the most war, Haozi lost 30,000 soldiers in vain, and the strength of the Mo family's army must be observed. ”

Tian He was about to speak, but his son Tian Wu stepped forward and said: "No." Don't you hear the righteousness of the Mo family's non-attack? In the past, Xiang Ziniu Valu, Mo Zhai went to Linzi in person, and gave lectures with the ancestors, Xiang Ziniu and his father, how did he say? ”

When Xiang Ziniu invaded Lu, Tian Wu had not yet been born, but Wu Qi's debut caused by the invasion of Lu, the Mo family's Shoulu, and the expulsion of the Mo family, etc., gradually increased the power of the Mo family over the years.

Qi will Valu, Zi Mozi said Xiang Ziniu said: "Valu, Qi is too big." In the past, King Wu went east to conquer Yue, and lived in Zhuhuiji; Western Expedition to Chu, King Baozhao Yu Sui; Northern Expedition Qi, take the son of the country to return to Wu. The princes repay their suffering, the people work hard, and the Buddha is used. It is a country as a void, and it is a torture and killing. In the past, the Zhibo Fan clan and the Zhongxing clan were also the land of the Three Jin Dynasty. The princes repay their suffering, the people work hard, and the Buddha is used. It is a void for the country, and as a torture, it is also used. Therefore, if a big country attacks a small country, it is a thief to each other, and it will be against the country. ”

Mozi's remarks started from the fact that it was a big mistake for a big country to attack a small country, and gave many examples of warlike and dead countries to prove the righteousness of non-attack.

Tian Wu didn't need to go into details, and said: "Now the doctors of the Fei State are willing to take refuge in the Qi State. So this matter is the business of Qi State, what does it have to do with the Mo family? ”

"Fei Guo only has the capital left, they have participated in the non-offensive alliance, as long as we do not invade the capital of Fei Guo, it is the internal affairs of Qi State. The Mohists once said that it is their duty not to interfere in the internal affairs of various countries, will they themselves violate it? ”

Tian Wu's meaning is that now it is the doctor of the Fei State who has taken refuge in the Qi State, so cities such as Wucheng and Zhuhu are all the territory of the Qi State.

The territory of the Fei country is only a little bit of the capital of the Fei country, and the people there are willing to join the non-offensive alliance and let them go. As long as you don't attack the capital of Fei at that time, then it is a non-attack.

If it is said that the people of the capital of Fei attacked the cities of Qi State, this is an invasion, how can the morality of the Mo family explain the rationality of this matter?

Tian Yan, who was supported by the ministers and Tian Hao's faction to become the crown prince, spoke out: "If everything is prepared, it will be established, and if it is not prepared, it will be abolished." The pre-word rule is not to stumble, the pre-rule is not sleepy, the pre-action rule is not guilty, and the pre-road rule is not poor. ”

"The Mo family acts, although there are rules...... But after all, it is determined by people. If the Mo family sends troops, it will be difficult for the Qi family to resist with the will of the righteous teacher. ”

The battle of the most is the last defeat of Tian Yan's father in this life, Lu asked the Mo family to send troops to attack the righteousness of the whole thing, and the six divisions of the Mo family defeated the 50,000 army of the Qi State.

After the war, he released the resurrected Qi soldiers and returned the corpses of the Qi soldiers, and made a wave of propaganda by the way: this time it was not the righteous teacher of the Mo family who killed them, but the Qi Marquis who launched the unjust war.

This has to be said to be a painful lesson for the Tian family, who has just solved the problem of the Tian family's generation of Qi.

Tian Yan said again: "The Mo family, the tiger, don't provoke." ”

Tian Wu sneered: "The Mo family has nothing more than the advantage of firearms and the strength of copper cannons. Now there are cannons in the Qi country, and there are scholars who have learned from Si and scholars who understand the nine numbers of geometry, why is the elder brother afraid of the Mo family like a tiger? ”

"Besides, the matter of Fei Guo is not as simple as rebellion and murder of the king, you have all heard the things that happened in Fei country, those so-called declarations...... Every sentence can be punished. ”

"Fei and Qi are close to each other, if Fei Guo succeeds, I am afraid that Qi will not be stable for thousands of miles, and this matter must be resolved."

In recent years, Qi has also carried out some military changes, the arquebus with very low technical content basically appeared at the same time as the crossbow, and the collapse of the well field system made the projection force urgently need to be expanded, and the archers relied on the original village shooting, raising soldiers and other methods were completely insufficient.

The arquebus replaced the newly appeared crossbow as a more convenient weapon, which could quickly expand the crossbow troops, just in time for a country to begin to develop crossbowmen, and spread extremely quickly.

The casting of bronze cannons is not a difficult point under the developed bronze manufacturing process and bell casting technology. Although the formula of gunpowder is still unclear in each country, it is difficult to match it, but there is enough gunpowder from Sishang, and there is a gunpowder trade in large transactions every year.

Qi is also a mercantile country, and a lot of gunpowder is secretly transported to Qi every year, and the army of Qi is gradually changing.

In the battle of the last battle, the Mo family's city defense skills and artillery bombardment left a deep impression on the Qi State, and they have woken up suddenly over the years and kept catching up.

Although Tian He is the Marquis of Qi, but under the family politics, just like Xiang Ziniu's invasion of Lu back then, they are all Tian family, and Xiang Ziniu's invasion of Lu is just to say hello to Qi Hou, and the feudal lords in various places have a certain right to start a war.

Tian Hao was originally preparing to invade a wave of Lu and take the rich Sanqiu, Heze and the land around Dayozawa, so that the Qi State could open up the situation in the Central Plains and also strive for more fiefs for his own family.

I don't want that defeat to cause Tian Hao's prestige and power to suffer a great loss, and the southwest region of Lu is still in the hands of Lu State.

This battle also has a topographical factor, if you want to annex Lu to open up the situation in the Central Plains, you must march from the southwest plain of Lu, otherwise Lu has mountains to defend, it is really difficult.

The power of the Yue Kingdom has declined badly in recent years, but the Mo family supports it there, and it is difficult to expand along the East China Sea from Judi.

In the Central Plains, the defense of the country is another powder keg. The three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, and Qi surrounded the country, and it was really a matter of moving the whole body.

In recent years, the Song State has promised to be non-offensive, and the relationship between the Mo family and the Song State has been severed, and the Yan State in the north can be fought, but the situation on the side of the Lu State is not open, and it is best not to provoke.

It's not that considering the Mo family's non-offensive righteousness, but considering that if the Yan State is attacked, Wei, Zhao, Yue, Han and other countries will never give up the opportunity to stab Qi in the back.

With the advent of iron ox farming, the most fertile land today is the land of Song, Wei and other Sishang.

Wei wants it, Korea wants it, and Qi wants it.

Because the Mo family is in Sishang, all parties are balanced, and they can't say that they can't have a chance to do it.

The contradictions of various countries are unlikely to be reconciled, for example, several companies work together to carve up this kind of thing, twenty years ago there was a chance, but they were busy with infighting and did not have time to make a move, but now there is no infighting, but the Mo family is too good to operate in Sishang, and no one is willing to go all out.

Originally, the Song Kingdom in history was also a short rise after the Pingqi Zhenchu, and finally the countries of the world carved up the land of Sishang. But at that time, the Mo family had already died out, and now the Mo family not only exists, but has also become one of the seven heroes in the world, and the dispute between Chu and Wei behind it has not ended.

The eastern line of Qi went south, and there was Yimeng Mountain to obstruct it; There is Mount Tai in the middle. If you want to get involved in Sishang, you can either talk about the East China Sea, attack Langya, and break the Yue Kingdom; Either bypass the mountains and get the vast plains of Onozawa, Heze and other places.

Southwest Lu is the road to Xuzhou, Sishang, Central Plains, Daliang and other places.

Obtaining the State of Fei is equivalent to the State of Qi gaining a foothold in Si, surrounding the State of Lu on all sides, making the State of Lu a vassal of the State of Qi; You can also expand your influence in Sishang, and once the time comes, if the world divides Sishang, you can also eat the most fragrant bite.

Qi Hou Tianhe waved his hand to stop the argument between his son and nephew, and said slowly: "The affairs of the Fei country, the widow must be in charge. ”

"Doctor Fei Guo has nothing to rely on, he asks for help from the widow, and the widow doesn't care, if there is such a thing in the world again, who can ask for help in Linzi?"

"Besides, I am the Son of Heaven, and I should uphold the etiquette system. Fei Guo Zheyangzi killed his king, this should be killed, if such a person is not killed, the world will be rude, isn't everyone wanting to kill his king? ”

He has already sat firmly in his position and has obtained Zhou Tianzi's permission, if he said this ten years ago, he would be slapping himself in the face.

But even so, he can only say that Zheyangzi killed the king, but he can't say that the rebellion of the people in Feiguo is wrong, after all, he also came to power like this.

Those nobles of the Fei State wanted to take refuge in the Qi State, and at the same time hoped that the Wei State could do justice for them, because the Wei State was considered the overlord of the world at this time.

This is something that Tian He can't bear.

The Wei state had already begun to expand in Daliang and other places, and Chen Caifu was the prince of Chu, which was a vassal of the Wei state; In recent years, Wei Guo's weak Yang Wei State has become a Wei State ban; Zheng Guo had three points after the death of Si Ziyang, and now two of them belong to Wei Han.

got the big beam, and there was the Qiuqiu that Gongsun Hui had defected to bring to the past, and the Chengyang that he got later......

The former site of Chengyang is in Huji Town of Heze, which is only forty miles away from Heze. The south of Heze is the richest Taoyi in the world, and the distance between Chengyang and Taoyi is only 100 miles.

Now that the Wei State has begun to get involved in Sishang, as long as there is an opportunity, once something happens in Sishang, it can immediately wave its troops down.

In other words, the cities of Wei were only seventy or eighty miles away from the camp where the Third Division of the Mo family was stationed, and they could be reached in two or three days.

And the State of Qi was scolded back because of the Battle of the Worst, and now wants to attack the southwest of Lu, the State of Wei is immediately alert. The Qi State was in the direction of Jucheng on the front line of the East China Sea, and it was simply unable to break the Mojia and the Yue allied forces. If you want to get involved in Sishang and not be opposed by Wei, then the matter of Fei Guo is the best opportunity.

It seems that in order to guard against the radical ideas of the Mo family, Wei Qi should be an ally.

But if you really want to expand, the first thing you need to watch out for is your allies.

The stab in the back...... Spring and Autumn did too much. Don't say this kind of thing, when Zhibo besieged Jinyang, Zhi, Han, and Wei were cooperating, and they were really allies, and as soon as they turned around, Han and Wei stabbed Zhibo on the battlefield.

This year...... No one can trust anyone.

The matter of Fei Guo provided an excellent opportunity for Qi State: an opportunity not to be interfered with by Wei Han to get involved in Sishang, and to avoid the sensitive powder keg-like southwest Lu region.
