Chapter 174: Conformism (6)
Among the twelve siege methods summarized by the Mohists at this time, there is the "sheep mound" method, that is, when there are many soldiers, wood and soil are piled up to form a mountain of earth, so that the archers and crossbowmen are condescending.
Then after piling up into a sheep's mound, relying on the cover of archers and crossbowmen, the city walls were suppressed remotely. Then get closer to the second sheep mound, and let the elite sword and shield soldiers rely on the big shield and the wooden bridge to condescendingly and directly attack the city wall.
Since there is such a method as a sheep mound, then siege equipment such as wooden towers that condescendingly spy on the situation in the city will also be built, even if it is not built alone, even if it is just a sheep mound, it is enough to see the situation in the city clearly.
But Mozi commented that Yangkun, a means of attacking the city, is the most stupid, and I have dozens of ways to crack it.
Since the sheep are not afraid, then building a watchtower for the Chu army does not care at all.
The appropriate method is exactly what Mozi meant, this belongs to some detailed tactics, but now there are only a few hundred Moshi plus righteous teachers, and if they want to attack through the formation and force the King of Chu to sign a retreat alliance, they can only use all the details well.
Mozi really didn't expect Shi to think of this similar method as he thought, he thought of using Shangqiu's manpower to artificially help the Chu army build a "sheep mound" before the arrival of the Chu army, as a beacon for the elite soldiers to attack the city at that time.
A plain, it is easy to get lost when attacking, and it is precisely for this reason that Cao Di commanded the battle of the long spoon and needed to stand on the chariot and look out.
Now that Shi has mentioned it, Mozi feels that this matter can really be prepared in advance, and said: "Since you said it today, just let everyone come over, and everyone will discuss it and decide on this method." ”
Mozi said that when he convened everyone to discuss, he naturally did not mean that all the ink masters were gathered, or that the radicals, the seven enlightenment harms, and others among the ink masters.
These people who were summoned were more like members of the military council of the Ink Scholars.
This kind of system was not conceived, and during the reorganization a few years ago, the Moshi adopted a similar system of staff or military councils in accordance with ancient law.
In "Liutao and Wang Yi", it was pointed out that the staff department, logistics department, engineering department, combat and other departments must be complete.
So-called:
The heart is alone, the main plot responds, the sky disappears, the overall plan, and saves the lives of the people.
There are five strategists, the main plan is safety, worrying about the budding, talking about ability, rewarding and punishing, awarding official positions, and deciding suspicions, whether it is possible or not.
There are three astronomical people, the main division of the ephemeris, waiting for the wind, pushing the time and the day, testing the symbols, correcting the disaster, and knowing the opportunity to go to the heavens.
The location is advantageous, the situation of the main three armies, the news of interests, the danger and danger from far and near, the water is dry and the mountains are blocked, and the geographical advantage is not lost.
There are nine people in the art of war, who mainly talk about similarities and differences, succeed or fail in action, concise weapons, and illegal assassination.
Four people were given food, and the main food and drink were prepared, and the grain roads were used to produce grain, so that the three armies would not be tired.
Fenwei four, the main choice of material strength, on the military revolution, galloping, I don't know why; There are three people in the drum flag, the main drum flag, clear ears and eyes, tricks, false orders, dark exchanges, and in and out like gods.
There are four people, and the director is difficult, repairing trenches and curing barriers. to prepare for the guard; There are three people, the main person picks up the missing and makes up for it, and the guests should be even, discuss and talk, and eliminate troubles.
There are three powerful people, and the main line is strange and different. is not known to people, and there are seven people who have infinite changes in their ears and eyes, the Lord comes and goes, listens to words and sees changes, sees the things of the Quartet, and the feelings in the army; Five minions, the main exaltation, motivate the three armies, so that the courage to attack sharp, without doubt.
Four winged people, the main reputation, shaking the distance, shaking the four realms, with a weak enemy: eight wanderers, the main service treacherous change, open and close the favor, watch the enemy's intentions, think of spies.
two warlocks, the Lord is deceitful, relying on ghosts and gods to confuse the hearts of the people; The two Fangshi, the main hundred medicines, to cure gold sores and cure all diseases; The law counts two people, and the compriser will be in and out of the three army camp walls, food, and money.
This is a general military core concept, including staff, command, operations, logistics, supply, engineering, reconnaissance, and so on.
Since the ink man is good at defending the city, and the first thing to explain in the city defense chapter is that the best defense is the field battle outside the city, so he is extremely familiar with the overall war organization.
In "Liutao", it refers to the royal system, so it needs to be assisted by seventy-two people.
The total number of ink scholars is only three or five hundred, and it is impossible for so many people to be core members, and the number is much smaller, but there is still a clear division of labor.
At the time of the reorganization, it was clearly pointed out that the Mo family's armed forces must be in the hands of the giants, but the internal auxiliary staff members could not be less.
The identity of the suitable ink is the secretary of the book and the radical of the Xuanyi department.
However, in the military power of the ink people, they are not core members because they do not understand the art of defending the city and their martial arts are scarce.
According to "Liutao", his status in the Ink Army is similar to that of a warlock and a magic calculation, and he is in charge of logistics and propaganda.
However, he didn't want to be just a warlock.
The core members of the Ink Scholar's military force are determined by the Giant Son and the Seven Enlightenment Harms, and the number is not fixed for the time being, and it is also parallel to the regular organization of the Ink Scholar.
According to the rules of the reshuffle a few years ago, it is appropriate not to participate in core meetings with military content.
But this time there are many problems involved in defending the city, not only in battle, but also in propaganda, forcing the Song Dynasty nobles to swear an oath, logistics, and so on, so it is still possible to participate in the audit as the head of the Xuanyi department, but there is no right to vote, only the right to propose specific issues.
Soon, the Mo Shi who ordered the order gathered more than ten people who were busy in Shangqiu City here, and there were only seven core members of the real military force for the time being, and the rest belonged to those who attended, and a few people stayed in Pei County.
Just as in Pei County, Shi participated in a high-level meeting within the Moshi for the first time as the head of the Xuanyi Department, which meant something different to him.
The significance of this high-level meeting of military forces is also very different.
With the awkward and eccentric identity of a secretary, he can basically participate in all kinds of meetings of the core of the inkman, but after all, he is only a secretary, and some things are not right.
This time he was not yet a member of the "Military Power Council", but this time Mozi was clearly ready to let him speak his mind.
After the people gathered, Mozi said first: "Before, I said something about the military defense of the city this time, I think there is some truth, how about you listen to it?" ”
These words are not qualified to be mentioned, and can only be relayed by Mozi, which is the internal rule of Mozi.
But since Mozi mentioned the idea that he came up with, the meaning is different: it is meaningless for Mozi to take responsibility or not, and his position is unshakable.
And if this matter can be successful, Shi can have a say in military issues, can convince the public, and can officially enter the inner circle of the military power of the Mo, even if it is the last.
If this fails, Shi will also have to take some responsibility. Although he did not have the right to vote, and it was the rest of the people who made the decisions, it had a great impact on the reputation of the military forces suitable for the future of the Moxi.
Shi was still happy about this, and he was not ready to let Mozi help take responsibility at all, because if Mozi took all the responsibility, he would not have a chance.
As Mozi commented before, if Gong Shang did not die young, he would elect Gong Shang Guo as the next giant.
The technique of defending the city has learned the essence, but in some general issues, in Mozi's opinion, it is slightly insufficient.
The appropriate general strategy and general trend are the best among the people Mozi has seen, and they are also one of the few who can figure out the direction of the situation in the world, and every time he says something, Mozi is shocked - the direction of history is this kind of thing, and Shi can indeed do it now, because many of them are inevitable in his memory.
Moreover, Shi's age is young, and he is considered the best of the younger generation of Mozi, and Mozi hopes that Shishi can participate more in the internal affairs of Moshi, and in a legitimate capacity.
In addition to "knowing the will of heaven", the Xuanyi Department showed the ability to be specifically responsible for certain things.
However, even if there is no distinction between the old and the young, the noble and the low, and the capable and the incompetent, the status of the suitable ink is a little embarrassing in the military force.
There are many brave warriors among the Mozi, although Mozi is "non-fighting", but in the context of the early years of the Warring States Period, if you want to convince these Mozi who are combative and capable of fighting people from various countries to convince their military ability, they must show a certain level.
This has always been the case.
Jiang Ziya is not a weak military advisor, but an old warrior who can still drive at the age of seventy.
Guan Zhong sounded like he was just a look, but he could pull his bow and shoot Qi Huan Gong's hook, and then retreat leisurely.
Wu Qi seems to only be able to train soldiers, but when he was young, he was also a soldier who insulted him and killed his whole family, killing more than ten people who fled.
Cao Di is even more able to hold a sword to "splash blood in five steps", forcing Qi Hou to be a ruthless character in the alliance.
It's not good.
When I was a child, I learned Jiao Tai from the butcher's apprentice, and it may be okay to put it on the street, but among the ink people, he may not even be able to beat the six fingers of the ink person he brought in.
To make a joke about Luo Qianli, Luo Qianli thinks that he can wrestle with a pair of hands tied and win easily.
It's just that I've never seen Mozi do it, but Luo Qianli has been beaten with a stick by Gongzaoye for several months, and Mozi inadvertently mentioned it when he was old and powerless......
In addition, Shi Shi's mind was all about running a school, fighting with Liezi Yang Zhu and others on paper, Pei County's system construction and agricultural magic array, etc., and he had not carefully learned the Mo's city defense techniques and field tactics at all.
When compiling and training the righteous teacher, he also thought about making a splash and proposing some "constructive" means, but what he didn't think of was the queue, formation, turning, military music, flags, etc., as early as a hundred years ago, someone proposed that he had also trained an elite army that could destroy Wu, and the training of those who guarded the city gate inside the ink was extremely strict.
Therefore, when he was training the righteous master, Shi did not have any chance to make a blockbuster, and he could not be distracted, so he could only linger outside the inner circle of the ink man's military power all the time.
Someone once joked, saying that if the next time the ink masters gathered, they would not be surprised to be selected as the Seven Enlightenments, but when defending the city, they were afraid that there would be swordsmen to follow and protect them......
This is a question that Shi has always been concerned about, and today he suggested to Mozi that he wanted to take a few steps forward in this circle.
Now the ink has not developed greatly, the number is three or five hundred, belonging to the start-up stage, this is the easiest opportunity to enter the highest level, how to say that it is suitable to be regarded as a person who has participated in the first reorganization of the ink people, this day is only three or four hundred.
Even if the ink artist always says that the characters are old and young, the noble and the lowly are only virtuous, but in fact, the rules of seniority and seniority are still followed.
If you want to get it, you have to bear the consequences of possible failure.
Mozi slowly finished talking about the "purpose", "tactics", and "feasibility" that Shi said, which meant that Shi would either succeed or have no chance of interfering with Mo's military power in the short term.
