Chapter 328: Leveraging the Power to Restore the Country (7)
On top of this plan, there is also a simple map he drew after going to Tengdi.
The thickness of the city gate, the soil outside the city gate, and the hydrology of the Jing River and the Xiaojing River are all clearly written.
This is beyond the reach of the rest of the Mo scholars, and it is considered the knowledge of later generations, and at this time, it is rare to use this kind of advance planning similar to the art of staff in war.
After this plan was circulated, Mozi said: "Everything is complete, if nothing else, it is excellent to fight like this." ”
He looked at the rest of the people, and said, "It is indeed excellent." Even if there is a change in the battle, I think he is also a person who is good at change. In this battle of Litten, I think it is most suitable to lead the three brigades. ”
Mozi bowed slightly, said what he thought was the right reason, and said: "After capturing Tengdi, we must guard against the counterattack of the Yue people, and we must also build the city wall." That's just right. Can you calculate how much food, grass and money need to be consumed in the follow-up? Are there enough farming tools for the people in Tengdi to start production immediately? Will Tengdi be able to feel the benefits of change as soon as possible? ”
Shijia Dolphin hurriedly said: "Shi has looked for me before, and he has already counted it." He said that I, the person in charge of money and food, should make a good calculation in advance. We can hold on, and we can fully support Tengdi's rapid change. Whether it is grain, seeds, or farm tools, it can basically be satisfied. It's just that the number of cattle and horses is temporarily insufficient, and this should be made up for after the Wei people trade with us. ”
Mozi looked at the rest of the people again, and the rest of them also felt that it was appropriate to do this, so they agreed that this time Shi would be the commander-in-chief, Meng Sheng would be the second deputy, and the other three brigade commanders and the officers of the artillery cavalry would be the front commander in accordance with the rules of the Mo family.
…………
Approaching the end of the year, several ink scholars who followed Hu Feizi to Linzi in Langya rushed back on horseback, reporting that Hu Feizi had seen Yue Wang Peng a month ago and was on his way to Linzi at this time.
The Mo family and the Yue country have had many contacts, and the prince once lobbied the king of Yue to seek a fief of 500 miles for Mozi, of course, because the pressure on the Yue country was too great, and the king of Yue always knew the ability of the Mo family.
Although the current King of Yue is not Zhu Gou, but his son Peng, when he heard that Hu Feizi of the Mo family was going, he immediately set up a banquet to entertain him.
During the banquet, he inquired about Mozi's body, reviewed the demeanor he had seen when he was a prince, sighed at the major events of the Mo family in the past few years, and asked Hu Feizi what he was doing in Qi State.
Hu Feizi only said that he wanted to persuade the Tian family to treat the people well, follow the will of heaven, and give Ming Zheng, etc., and said that he brought thousands of iron tools to Qi to sell.
During this period, Hu Feizi hyped up the two battles of Shangqiu and Niuqiyi, and showed the firearms he carried with him, and Yue Wangpin panicked when he saw it.
He had already heard about the situation in Wu, and some of the ink writers went deep into the hinterland of Wuyue, and at first they only spread some memories to improve people's livelihood, and the local people thought it was good.
Later, there was continuous news that the old nobles of the Wu Kingdom were frequently walking with the ink people there, and it was very convenient for the ink people to reclaim and cultivate the iron tools that the ink people transported along the ditch, and it was also said that some of the nobles of Wu had built ditches in the fiefdom with the help of the Mo family, and there was no danger of flooding and drought.
This has already shocked Yue Wang a little, and now although Yue Guo seems to be beautiful, he also enjoys the glory of Qi Hou and Lu Hou driving together, but he understands that Yue Guo is already at the end of the strong crossbow, and it is impossible to make any big progress.
Moreover, after the first battle of Niu Yi, the whole world knew that the Mo family went to the Chu State, and Yue Wang Fei was also worried about what the Chu State would do in the east at this time.
Now that Hu Feizi is still in Qi, although he doesn't know what he is going to do, Yue Wang still vaguely feels uneasy.
He also deliberately asked Hu Feizi what the Mo family was going to do when they entered Wu, and Hu Feizi only said that he would spread morality and righteousness to benefit the people.
After Hu Feizi stayed in Langya for a few days, before going to Linzi, he sent these people back to Pei County to report the news according to the previous agreement.
Hearing this news, he said: "In my opinion, the New Year has passed, spring plowing in February, summer harvest in May, and I think it will start in March." ”
"The weather is warm and there is little rain, which is just the right time to play. The second is to avoid the summer harvest, Tengdi Su wheat planting less, after being busy, you can repair the city wall, issue a decree, divide the land, just in time to plant winter wheat. ”
"With the reaction of the Yue Kingdom, if they send a small number of troops, we are not afraid. If more troops are dispatched, and grain and grass must be prepared in advance to recruit, and Hu Feizi enters Qi, King Yue must think that the affairs of Teng State are controlled by Qi State, and he also needs to guard against Qi people. ”
"The more brilliant our victory is here, the more the king of Yue will not dare to send only a small number of troops to counterattack and affect Tengdi's production. The more brilliant our victory is, the more worried he is that Qi can capture Langya with our help. ”
"So in this matter, Tian doesn't want to carry it for us, so he has to carry it for us. And if we can defeat the Yue Kingdom, the Tian clan will take the initiative to stand up and cheer for us. ”
Tengdi is too close to Pei County, but it is only more than 100 miles, and it can really be regarded as a morning and evening. If it is said that it is March, then it will not be early or late.
After some analysis, everyone agreed, there was no one in the Mo family who opposed it for the sake of opposition, and it was obvious that it was most appropriate to send troops at the end of March.
Mozi pondered for a moment and said: "Yes, you are leading the army this time, although you are in charge of the military and travel, you must not forget your own duty." The Xuanyi Department must make it clear why it is fighting and why it is beneficial to the world. But...... Also pay attention to the wording, don't make the princes of the world angry, for the time being we are just chicken eggs, they are stones. ”
Shi Dao: "I know that. You can use the mouth of Kitt to preach, he invited us to send troops to do righteousness, which is enough to prevent the princes of the world from being criticized. ”
"After all, the Xuanyi Department is only talking, and it still needs a large number of ink writers or travelers who can divide the land and teach the crops. The grain and iron tools of the city and the public casting must not be delayed. ”
Both of them expressed the problem of enlightenment, and Mozi also said that about 200 Mozi and Youshi could be sent to Tengdi to fill the vacuum of officials and spread the law and knowledge and technology.
After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Teng Shuyu and the other Teng Di nobles should also inform them and let them prepare." ”
"But we people over there have to withdraw as soon as possible. Once the news leaks out, the mills and food shops on our bright side will be captured and killed by the Yue people. ”
"I suggest that Luo Qianli and Qu General go to Tengdi first, inform Teng Shuyu, and then take our people to withdraw."
This rhetoric is extremely reasonable, but in fact, it is suitable for harboring evil intentions, and he is sure that a character like Teng Shuyu will definitely not be too tightly organized.
Teng Shuyu is a gangster, not a nobleman who is immersed in conspiracy all day long, and it is not suitable for such a person to engage in conspiracy activities at all.
Once everyone is gathered to take the oath, there will inevitably be people who are worried that the Vietnamese army will come and go to tell the truth, which is an inevitable situation and it is easy to make mistakes.
And he also asked Teng Shuyu to draw up a list of oaths, with the organizational ability of those people, once they are detected, it will be a catastrophe.
Borrowing the hands of the Yue people to get rid of the old nobles in Tengdi, there is only one bare-roded Jite left, which is the most perfect situation.
Since Pei County already has enough bureaucrats to fill the small Tengdi, and has the iron tools to break the sub-seal system of the well field, Shi really can't understand what role the so-called aristocracy has in addition to being "silverfish".
…………
Half a month later, Pei County had begun to mobilize, the Xuanyi Department began to publicize and agitate, and Ji Te, who was "studying" in Pei County, also began to appear frequently, but did not make a final request for the time being.
Tengcheng.
Qu Jiang and some ink artists sent Teng Shuyu some gunpowder thunder and short swords, and then in the name of possible danger, the Mo family's property in Tengdi was temporarily handed over to Teng Shuyu and his market partners to take over, and all the ink artists in Tengdi withdrew overnight.
Teng Shuyu now has a sword in his hand, a gunpowder mine, and the news that the ink artist will send troops this spring and summer at the request of "Tenghou Hou Gongzi" to "Liteng and all the people", and he is very excited.
He had already contacted many descendants of the old nobles in Tengdi, and the Mo family had provided him with some funds for him to associate with these nobles, without stating what he really wanted to do.
Now that the plans have been decided, Teng Shuyu is ready to do something big, thinking that he will be able to have an official position in the restored Teng State in the future.
The people are not very concerned about the restoration of the country, and the people who care about this kind of thing are not the descendants of the old aristocracy, or some wanderers who are ready to do something big in the market.
Teng Shuyu knew that the people didn't care about the restoration of the country, and it was impossible to contact the people.
One day in February, Teng Shuyu prepared wine and food in the restaurant that the Mo family had evacuated, and invited those guests who often walked around on weekdays.
There are local high-rollers, there are now down-and-out aristocrats, there are nobles who temporarily hold official positions in the Yue people, and some figures in the market.
These people gathered together, and Teng Shuyu ordered his companions to stand guard outside, and ordered a few people to stand at the door with swords.
Everyone was stunned and asked, "Teng Shuyu, what is this going to do?" ”
Teng Shuyu said sharply: "Since King Wu fell, Zhou Gong went east, and sealed the wrong uncle embroidered in Teng, it has been twenty-six. ”
"The Yue people are arrogant, the Teng country is innocent and destroyed, and the Sheji Sect and Temple are destroyed, can such hatred be put down?"
Although his righteous words are reasonable, and they are also in line with the morality of the world at this time, but the people present are silent.
"Although Teng is not guilty, the Yue people have broken their hair and tattoos, and they are barbarians." How can the barbarians talk about China's politics? ”
"Although we hate it, but the country of Yue Jia is 100,000, and the country of Teng is only a country of a hundred miles, how can we block it? Not to mention Teng, Qilu is a big country, don't you also give the king of Yue a ride as a royal seat? ”
"Gongzi fled to Lu State, Lu Hou himself can't protect it, even if we have hatred, what can we do?"
The son of this person is naturally not Ji Te, who has already gone to Pei, but the son of the legitimate inheritance, who has fled fifteen years ago and has never returned to the country of Lu.
Qilu really doesn't dare to provoke Yue Guo now, let alone help Teng Guo restore the country.
When Teng Shuyu heard this person say this, he laughed and said, "Don't forget, the grandson of Kao Gong is still alive and has gone to Peidi to study at Mo Zhai. I'll tell you today that Gongzite has already said that the Mo family will expel the Yue people for the sake of Liteng and restore Teng Guosheji! ”
