Originally, when Meng Sheng was loyal to Xiaoyi and decided to die, it was Xu Wan who was the first to object, but after being persuaded by Meng Sheng, Xu Miao committed suicide to preserve the authority of the giant.

At the time of the change of Feidi, Xu Miao also made a lot of contributions, and Shi already knew this person, so he valued it very much.

After reading the letter, he picked up the pen and wrote a letter in reply in the name of the giant.

One is to solemnly praise the local organizations in Xinzheng for their ability to comprehend the spirit of connecting their superiors and to maintain the correct line in the event of an emergency.

Neither radical enough to oppose both Wei Han and Zheng nobles; did not do without a bottom line to cooperate with the nobles of Zheng Guo, and used all kinds of coercive means to let the people defend the city.

Rather, it is important for the people to know the power they possess and learn to use the contradictions to "take advantage of the fire".

The second is to put forward some of his own views, isolated cities are difficult to defend, few rely on defense to win the entire battle, and in the end they have to rely on external troops to rescue.

Xu weak's method, he believed that if he made reasonable use of the dead soldiers of the nobles in the city, as well as the few bronze cannons in Xinzheng City, it would be no problem to hold on for a period of time.

But holding on for too long is unlikely.

One is that the incident happened suddenly, if it was known a month in advance, then Xinzheng could have deployed a real line of defense inside the city wall.

But now there is not enough time, so I can only repair it one by one, once Wei Han increases his troops, he will definitely not be able to hold it at that time.

The second is that Wei Han has been prepared for a long time, and once he chooses to increase his troops, he will soon send troops, but the Mo family is slow to send troops now, and the Chu State does not know what the situation is.

Therefore, he hoped that the local Ink Scholar Organization would be ready to break the city, and once the city was broken, he would not die with the city.

After experiencing it once, the people have already awakened partially, and the Wei-Han coalition is strong, and it is difficult for the rebellion to succeed, and Sishang has no way to support it for the time being.

But even if the city is broken, the Wei and Han coalition forces will not dare to easily hurt the ink on the surface, and the ink people who are now moving everywhere are a bit like foreign missionaries in the saddest era of Zhuxia, unless they are preparing to start a complete war Wei Han does not dare to move - since Wei and Han dare not send troops to interfere with the Song State, it can prove that they have no courage to start a war, so don't die in the city, and wait for rescue and negotiation here.

Finally, the people who are active must find a way to protect them, if there is great danger, you can directly give them the identity of an ink person, and the formalities will be handled here, so that the Wei and Han coalition forces and Zheng Guo are not qualified to deal with them. If there is not much danger, let them continue to live in the local area, record their names, and in the future, Sishang will pay for them to sponsor them.

Thinking of the words that Meng Sheng said in history that Xu Wan moved Xu Wan to commit suicide, he solemnly expressed his opinion, which can be regarded as a rainy day.

Originally, in history, after Xu Wan expressed his opposition, Meng Sheng, who was a giant, thought that the Mo family must rely on the trust of the ruler if it wants to develop and grow, so it is necessary to do what it says and what it does.

In addition to the elite, there are also a series of ink people such as Tian Xiangzi who did not participate in the defense of the city, as long as the reputation of the Mo family is left, it will definitely be carried forward in the future.

In fact, this is exactly the case, but the part of the Mo people who have developed it has relied on the organization and technology of the Mo family to carry it forward in the Qin State, but it has gone away.

Shi wrote in his heart that now that the times have changed, the Mo family does not need to rely on the trust of the nobles, but to mobilize the people and have their own arms, so there is no need for the nobles to see that the Mo family is loyal like a dog, as long as they agree, they will not regret it, and they must tell the world: We defend the city for the righteousness, and we oppose the nobles for the righteousness.

To survive, to accumulate strength, not to beg for death easily.

In addition, since the people who only relied on Xinzheng could not hold it, and it was impossible for Sishang to send troops for the time being, it was necessary to repeatedly advise not to have illusions about the nobles of Zheng State.

If Xinzheng City can be defended, then it must be the Chu State that sent troops, and once the Chu State sent troops, the nobles of the Zheng State found another father, and they were no longer facing the threat of being killed by the Wei and Han coalition forces, so they would definitely not recognize the contracts signed with the people at that time.

At that time, it was a mistake to easily launch a popular revolt, which would deal a great blow to the strength and confidence of the people, and it would be impossible for Sishang to send troops immediately, which would cause unpredictable consequences.

If they can't keep it, then those contracts will be meaningless, and Wei Han will definitely not allow this kind of righteous and bright non-governmental association activities, and when the time comes, some people who are active in defending the city will be transferred to underground activities as soon as possible.

In short, it is a sentence: the spontaneous uprising of the people who relied on Xinzheng was definitely going to fail under the suppression of Wei, Chu and Han.

The success of Sishang stems from the special environment of the princes competing for hegemony in those years, which cannot be replicated, so the correct line is to preserve strength, awaken the people, strengthen the power of Sishang, rely on secession and finally seize power violently, and do not try to learn from Sishang to launch uprisings everywhere or directly seize power.

After writing it, Shi handed over the letter to the communications department, and they carried out a simple encryption, and Xinzheng's ink writers had several books, and the people from the communications intelligence department could decipher them as long as they were there.

He sent a few men who were absolutely loyal and skillful, and told them to find an opportunity to enter the city and deliver the letter to the people of the city.

As for the means of entering the city, that was not his business.

After getting the new situation of the Xinzheng defensive battle, Shi immediately sent someone to pass the news back to Pengcheng, and at the same time sent someone to tell the king of Chu the news day and night.

The Song Kingdom is not only in the world, but also in the Song Kingdom, and the location of Shangqiu is very close to Xuzhou and Zhengzhou. It is not far from Zhoukou, where the king of Chu is staying now.

The Mo family always has its own rules, and some things cannot be decided by one person, and he knows very well that the reason for the development and growth of the Mo family is not because of the prosperity of talents, but because of the powerful and cumbersome and strict rules at this time.

Two days later, news came from Pengcheng, and after discussion, he recognized Shi's views on Zheng Guoshi, clarified the route, and the remaining details had to be operated from here.

After receiving the news from Pengcheng's side of the starry night, he asked the person in charge of intelligence here to preside over the negotiations with Chu, and sent someone who was considered important within the Mo family to go to Chendi, at least at a level sufficient to talk directly with the king of Chu.

…………

Chen Di, the king of Chu can be said to have experienced the four emotions of surprise, anger, joy and worry these days.

Hearing that Wei Han suddenly sent troops to Zheng Guo, he was shocked.

Knowing that Wei Han carved up the weak chicken Zheng Guo did not call him, he wanted to confront the Mo family with hard stubble, but he hurriedly asked the Chu people to join the alliance, and he was angry.

Hearing that the people of the Mo family organized a defense in Xinzheng, Wei Han could not break the city for the time being, making it more likely that the Chu State would interfere and benefit, Xi.

More than 100 ink scholars can make the chaotic, frightened, and war-minded Xinzheng quickly stable, and be able to think of a way to defend the city in a desperate situation, which makes it difficult for Wei Han's 100,000 troops and 30,000 soldiers to break the city.

Wei Han was the enemy of Chu, as was the Sishang Mo family.

What the king of Chu saw was the death of Wei Han, the heart of Chu and the immortality of Chu; I also saw the terrifying power of the rising Mo family mobilizing the people.

In the past few days, the envoys of the Mo people have often come and proposed several solutions, which are impossible for the Chu State to accept, and some of them are obviously proposed by the Mo family knowing that the Chu State is impossible to accept.

These days, there are frequent contacts between the two sides, but after all, the level is not enough, so I can only talk about general issues.

On this day, the Mo family finally sent a person of sufficient level, and it can be seen that the Mo family really wants to solve this problem.

Time was pressing, and the king of Chu understood that once Xinzheng was breached, it would not be easy for the state of Chu to intervene again.

The bottom line of the king of Chu is that Zheng can destroy the country, but several cities in the south have to be given to Chu.

Relying on Chu's own strength will definitely not work, so the king of Chu urgently needs the Mo family's statement: what he wants is only the Mo family's statement, as a way to deter Wei Han, so that Wei Han will spit out a few cities that are vital to the defense of Chu State, instead of really going to war with Wei Han.

The first unofficial envoy sent to Shangqiu deliberately used words such as morality to stimulate Shi, that is, to interfere with Zheng Guo in order to use morality to force him to express his attitude.

The king of Chu understands the truth of the snipe and the clam competing for the benefit of the fisherman, and he also understands that the Mo family is not looking forward to the war of Wei, Chu and Han?

The more so, the less he wanted to go to war; But the more you don't want to go to war, the more you have to show that you want to go to war. Otherwise, it is impossible to obtain benefits from Wei Han's mouth by means of negotiation; Otherwise, there would be no way to deter Wei Han.

Deceiving each other, taking advantage of each other, deceiving each other, and taking what they need, this is the world after the collapse of etiquette. It wasn't for nothing when the ceremony didn't collapse before, but it still needed to do superficial work before, and now it doesn't need to be done at all.

Now that the city of Xinzheng is temporarily defended, and the news that the siege of the Wei and Han coalition forces is not going well, the king of Chu has no way to accuse the Mo family of occupying the moral high ground, at least the people of the Mo family have organized and defended the city over there, and it has been very effective.

At this time, if you want to accuse the Mo family of starting to correct after the death of the bird, just shouting non-offensive but not doing non-offensive things, you can't use the words.

Now that the Mo family has sent people of sufficient rank to negotiate, the King of Chu must also set the bottom line and how to deal with his own negotiations.

That is, to shout slogans loudly, to make an attitude of sending troops, to talk with the Mo family with great fanfare, to make a posture of intervention, but it is absolutely impossible to fight with Wei Han and let the Mo family watch the excitement from the side.

To use the pretense of pretending to start a war with Wei Han and gaining the support of the Mo family and the Qin State, he forced Wei Han to spit out the meeting place of Yingshui and Weishui that the Chu State must hold in his hands.

As for the jurisprudence, it is also very simple. After the prince decided to make a war against Chu, some pro-Chu nobles were liquidated and fled to Chu, so it was okay to establish a Chu county whose name was still Zheng.

The state of Chu has always done this, the state of Chu was to be a small Xizhou before, and after the destruction of the country, it was not a county, but a county and a feudal country in parallel, and the titles of some countries still retain sacrifices and inheritance, but at the same time, there are counties where Chu people are county dukes.

In this way, showing favor to the old nobles of Zheng State, some Zheng nobles and scholars will choose to side with Chu State, after all, Chu State retains Zheng State's sacrifices, and it will also make Zheng Di the most resolute front line to resist Wei and Han in the future.
