It's business as usual these days.

Although it is clear from top to bottom that countries will definitely choose to intervene, because this time the Mo family has done something too "excessive", clearly expressing the attitude of uprooting the aristocratic rule of the Chu State, and there is no room for maneuver at all.

The princes and nobles know very well that if they don't interfere and the Mo family occupies the great plains of Jianghuai, Jianghan, Sishang, and Jiangkou, if they give the Mo family another three years, the Mo family can really look down on the princes, and there is no longer a need for vertical and horizontal techniques.

However, the response of countries is swift, but the mobilization is extremely slow due to many problems.

The Battle of Yicheng ended in an extremely comical way, Sishang expected the enemy to be too wide, and the state of Chu after the coup was really vulnerable.

In terms of the attitude towards the nobles of the Chu State, it can be regarded as completely angering the nobles of various countries.

Sishang has developed for 30 years, and a large amount of money income has been invested in education every year, and the ideology and theory of equality and love are synonymous with a self-contained system; the theory of self-harmony and altruistic social development; the basic corollary of the creation of wealth by the effective labor of power; Later generations perfected the grammar of the script borrowed today......

All this has made a large number of Chu nobles have no meaning for the Mo family and the world.

There are even many people who believe that the only meaning of the existence of those people is that they may plot rebellion and counterattack in the future with ill intentions, so that it is better to make the concept of the world out of a separatist force of the Chu State, and it is better to execute them all after trial.

The reason for the killing is the original sin of "sealing the field" and appropriating the fruits of others' labor without compensation, which is derived from "labor creates wealth".

The reason why the Mohists have such confidence is also due to the large number of literate people and bureaucratic system accumulated after the prelude to the unification war dragged on for too long.

If there is no these, even if the Chu State is defeated, it is estimated that it will be the same as Qin's destruction of Chu, so that the one-county policy of "the rule of the county is all from the Liang" actually relies on the terrible situation of the nobles of the former country.

And now, the Mo family does not need to invite the nobles of the Chu State to be officials, and even the large number of reserve officials cultivated in Sishang wish that these nobles were dead, and the pit was not enough, so could it be that they should be invited to occupy the pit again?

He knew his own level, and did not have the ambition to contribute to the benefit of the world after curing the sick and saving people, and after educating the aristocracy, this was different from the revolutions of later generations, and the later generations were literate and equal to the old ruling class and had to make a slight compromise; Now, in fact, it is similar to the concept of the redefinition of the nation-state after external aggression, so the attitude towards the old aristocracy can be imagined.

But considering that it was not good to kill too many at once, the decision was finally made.

Those below the rank of the fiefdom were allowed to support themselves, deprived of their aristocratic status and became equal people, deprived of the land and means of production and wealth they had accumulated before, and started from scratch all equal.

In view of the fact that returning to the village community may gradually monopolize the power of the village community by virtue of its basic and traditional consciousness, they are not allowed to return home, and all of them are sent to the coal mine for labor reform.

After five years, it can be released, and those who are willing to cultivate it will be allocated a piece of land to work with the immigrants, and they will be newly granted the status of equal citizens; Those who do not want to be able to obtain "freedom", the freedom to starve to death: either to work in the workshop, or to go down to the mine to carry the mine, or without the unpaid occupation of the farmer to work and can only starve to death or beg, starvation is also a kind of freedom, which cannot be taken away.

The true nobles and feudal lords above the doctor, along with their families, were all sent to the barren lands overseas.

If their ancestors were able to overcome obstacles and establish a state, then if they had the ability, they would continue to continue their state overseas and establish Xinchu; If you don't have the ability, you will starve to death and die of illness, it can only prove that they are too wasteful, it turns out that they can lay down a territory with a little bronze, and Taber and his party can become the founding king of the country by running from the west to Wu Land, and now they have iron tools and muskets, and if they can't do it, then there is no way.

For this reason, it is also specially told to the world that if there are loyal people who are willing to serve the king of Chu for the rest of their lives, adhere to the etiquette of respect and humility, and do not believe in equality, they can sign up to come to Sishang as soon as possible, and the Mo family will send a number of seeds and a number of muskets and an iron weapon each, and send them away with the king of Chu for free.

In this way, the world could not help but shake, and the nobles understood that the fangs of the Mo family had been opened, and their enemies were not only the Mo family, but also those who were born inferior to them.

This war was no longer a war between princes for power, but a decisive battle between the new rules and the old system. Either there is an order of dignity and inferiority, or everyone is equal and contradictory to each other, and there can be no other possibility.

It can be said that the Mo family's treatment of the nobles of Chu is a bit terrifying, even if it was the enmity of Wu Yue back then, the interests of some nobles of Wu were not encroached upon, but they were only loyal to a different master. There is no such scale of a complete blood purge, but this time the Mo family did not even abide by the traditional virtue of destroying the country and not ceasing to worship the country, and the nobles were completely furious.

However, although the power of anger is strong, it cannot resist the crushing of productive forces, and it is even more difficult to resist the various layouts planned before.

The war instigated by the Mo family in order to conquer the Chu State and the previous situation bought the Mo family a lot of time.

A few years ago, he first angrily denounced Zhongshan for not implementing more profound changes after the restoration of the country, which was unjust, which was equivalent to releasing a signal to Zhao Guo to let Zhao State attack Zhongshan and the Mo family would not interfere.

Righteousness and injustice all depend on the mouth of the Mo family.

In itself, the follow-up policy of Zhongshan's restoration of the country is impossible. Zhongshan's restoration relied on the support of the Mohist family's weapons, and the joint investment of profit-seeking businessmen to demand returns, and these businessmen did not do charity, but to pursue more profits.

The main nobles of the restoration of the country are not to seek the happiness of the people to be the public servants of the people, they want to be the nobles who really rule the country of Zhongshan.

Merchants have been given a lot of franchises, and if they can resist the desire for profit and not go too far to exploit it, then they will really see the hell.

The nobility received a large number of fiefs, and if they could give up their own interests and take the initiative to change in favor of the people, then these nobles would no longer be nobles.

Since the Mohists began to open up the South China Sea, most of the merchants of the various vassal states have set their sights on foreign trade and opening workshops or buying land in the South China Sea for long-term work, and the profits on the side of Zhongshan have gradually been monopolized by a few big merchants in the north.

Those with a long-term vision know that they should withdraw early, because they know that the policy of the Mo family does not allow Zhongshan to do business like that.

Now, when the Mo family finally angrily denounced Zhongshan's injustice, many merchants who sold their shares early and switched to South China Sea trade breathed a sigh of relief.

They chose the right path.

After the Battle of Yinyang, Zhao finally determined the strategic direction of expansion to Zhongshan, because Zhao knew that this place in the Central Plains looked rich but was actually a powder keg, and if he was not careful, he would be burned.

After the prince of Wei canceled his false name of Zhongshan Jun, the Mo family almost profited in the battle of Yinyang, and the Qin state rose, and the relationship between the three Jin and Jin Dynasty eased in this situation.

The three families worked together to destroy the Jin Kingdom, divided the last bit of land in the Jin Kingdom, and degraded the Jin Marquis to a concubine, but still retained a certain amount of fiefdom for the Jin Marquis to continue the sacrifice.

Then the Qin State began to attack the West River every once in a while, and the Mo family tacitly carried out the strategy of east-west advance, and the Mo family bleeded the Wei State, and the Qin State would not wait until the Wei State rested, but would continue to bleed through the weakness of the Wei State.

The easing of relations between the Three Jin Dynasty and the Mohists' declaration of injustice in Zhongshan gave Zhao the confidence to invade Zhongshan.

Zhao and Zhongshan fight.

At the same time, Qin gathered 50,000 troops, crossed Weishui, and fought with Wei in Yin and Jin, 30,000 Wei soldiers were destroyed, Qin won a great victory, and Wei's most powerful field army in Xihe was destroyed.

Since then, Wei has no strategic offensive capability in Xihe, and even no effective defense ability, and can only rely on the steep strangulation of some mountains and rivers.

Wei Wushu is not a peasant soldier, it is a professional soldier similar to the government soldiers, 30,000 Wei soldiers are comparable to 100,000 conscripted feudal peasant soldiers, the fall of these 30,000 Wei soldiers means that the field force of Wei is completely gone.

Qin took the opportunity to advance eastward, capturing Huashan and Linhan Valley, Zhao and Han were shocked and sent troops to support, while the Wei people defended Hangu Pass, and confronted Qin with Quwo as a backup and waited for reinforcements.

When Wei Hou heard of this great change, he couldn't afford to get sick, so he called his two favorite sons to his side during his illness, and told Gongzi to slow down and make peace with Gongzi, but in the end he couldn't bear to get rid of one.

South Korea sent 30,000 troops, and Zhao sent 20,000 troops to help Wei defend the West River and confront Qin.

The number of troops sent by various countries is getting smaller and smaller, but the combat effectiveness is actually getting stronger and stronger, and the 30,000 standing army can beat 100,000 peasant soldiers. And the cost of raising a standing army of 30,000 may be several times that of 100,000 peasant soldiers.

After this battle, no matter whether it was won or lost, it was impossible for Wei to come up with enough strength to interfere with Sishang.

South Korea has also worked hard in recent years, and it is not like Wei to make enemies on all sides, and it still has some strength, but it is not a strong country that can interfere in the battle of Mochu by relying on the strength of one country.

Zhao was fighting against Zhongshan, and because there was still a loop in the north in the hands of the Mo family, even if he sent troops, he couldn't send too much.

The Qin State in the west has to worry about it, because of the battle of Xihe, there is no need to worry too much. The way that the Qin State can take is to attack Nanzheng from Longyou or over the Qinling Mountains, and once it can't be attacked for a long time, it will face a big defeat, which is closely related to the smoothness of the Mo family's operations in the Chu State.

After quickly disintegrating the main force of Chu and gaining Jianghan, the potential crisis of Nanzheng was lifted.

Wu Qi is also old, and what he is worried about is that Wu Qi runs the land of Longxi, and finds the opportunity to take advantage of the Mochu War to suddenly send troops, enter Hanzhong from Longxi, and take Nanzheng, so as to prepare for the capture of Bashu in the future.

But Wu Qi returned to the capital of Qin due to illness, Mo Chu was not in Longxi when he started the war, and the Mo family did not dare to be careless, Nanzheng strengthened the defense, and while holding the Qinling Road, he only sent part of the troops down the Han River.

Now that the situation in Jianghan has stabilized, Qin has missed the best time to send troops, and at this time, if Qin wants to make a move, it must first solve the Xihe problem and solve the diplomatic relations with Wei, Han and Zhao.

Yanguo's nest is in Yandi, which has been the least affected by the changes in the Central Plains, and the whole living fossil in line with Zhou rites has not yet experienced the change of destroying the country and being reborn, and its ability to interfere with Sishang is minimal.

In the vast Central Plains, the only one who has the ability to interfere in Sishang is actually a Qi country.
