Chapter 122: Imminent

After arriving at Liang's father, the vendor went to a shop selling food in the city. After a few conversations, he handed the note he had written in the dark room to a person.

When they left, like the other vendors, they were still driving ox carts, filled with goods, and followed behind the Qi army.

Either this or that, various ways and channels, from Linzi to Pingyin to Chengyang, are like a huge spider web, and the center of this spider web is Tengdi.

The situation is very clear now.

Outside Qi, the army on the southern front of Wei State came out of Daliang and attacked Yangxia of Chu. The King of Chu immediately returned to his army and chose to confront the Wei people. Wei State and Chu army faced against Yangxia, and no one attacked first.

South Korea hoarded heavy troops in the Yingshui River and made an attempt to threaten the border of Chu Fenxing. At the same time, it concentrated some of its main forces in Yangdi, preparing to take the opportunity to attack Zheng State. Taking advantage of Wei State's opportunity to seek Han this time, it intends to take the opportunity to swallow part of Zheng State's land.

The battle to restore the country in Zhongshan was in full swing, and Gongzizhi just concentrated his troops to guard some cities. With the help of the power of those merchants and the conflict between Wei and Zhao, Zhongshan had already gained a foothold in some cities in the tributaries of the Yellow River and was recruiting large troops.

Zhao State was besieged by Handan, Wei Xihe Army went north to Zhao State, Zhao Prince Chao and rebels were also gathering and threatening Zhongmu.

All kinds of external information are analyzed and summarized and presented one by one to the right person.

From the external environment, in this war of interference, Wei no longer had the power to provide more troops, and news came from Pengcheng that Wei had secretly sent envoys to talk about "reasons" with the Mo family. In fact, this is a signal: I hope the Mo family will not participate in the dispute between Wei and Chu.

External conditions have been ripe, and internal opportunities have also come.

In February, the Marquis of Lu voted with the Ministry of Health, which was the domestic affairs of Qi and agreed to the State of Qi to borrow the road.

The Mo family immediately sent an envoy to express their anger. The Duke of Lu, Ji Xian, avoided the situation on the grounds of illness, and only asked the young master to come forward to meet the envoy of the Mo family.

When Ji Xian, the Marquis of Lu, was a prince, Mozi suggested that they carefully examine and see their character clearly. Ji Xian’s ability to be a Marquis of Lu is also related to what Mozi said back then.

Young Master Fen said that his father really could not understand the meaning of non-aggression, but he understood the anger of the Mo family, but he was a minister or a son after all, and he could only persuade but not let his father change his mind. Moreover, his father was sick, so no one would disturb him.

In fact, the Duke of Lu also sent people to contact Qi in secret, saying that Lu did not agree with the riots of Fei and was worried that it would endanger Lu.

Ji Xian is old, so if Qi wins, then Lu can still choose to be a semi-vassal state of Qi; and if the Mo family wins, Gongzi Fen can be supported by the Mo family and will not turn against him.

On the day when the 20,000 troops led by the father of Qi Liang entered the territory of Lu, the Mo family announced in a high-profile manner that Qi had entered the border of the non-aggressive alliance and strongly demanded that the Qi people retreat.

After repeated recurring, the Qi people only thought they could not hear it and still "fight with reason". It is said that the doctors from Fei State voted for Qi, so this is the land of Qi State. When the Qi people passed through Lu State, they were borrowing a way, not invading.

Then Qi kicked the ball to the Mo family, and the Qi people's envoys made a big splash from the cities and towns along the Lu State, saying only: Is the doctors the government of Fei State or the government of Qi State a dispute between the Mo family and Qi State. However, Lu State is innocent, and now it is the spring season. If the innocent people of Lu State suffer from military disasters, they will not bear it.

Therefore, I hope that if the Mohist family believes that it is a matter for the country of Fei, they will not be wary of the country of Fei and will not let the innocent Lu people be implicated.

This news spread all the way and everyone knows it along the way.

The Mohist family was initially silent, and a few days later, they finally sent envoys to declare along the way: Although Qi invaded Fei State unreasonable and selfish, Lu State's innocent words were still correct.

Since the Mohist school took it as its mission to benefit the world, it could not ignore the pain of fighting in the spring season for the people of Lu, so it announced that it would not send troops to fight against Qi within the territory of Lu.

At the same time, the ultimatum is that I hope the Duke of Qi can reflect on this as an unjust war. If he can retreat at the border, it will be considered a sudden awakening. Otherwise, the Mohist school would have to fulfill its obligation to attack the alliance, which is not to say that he would not make any mistakes.

At that time, everyone in Qi, Lu and Si praised the Mo family's benevolence and righteousness, and cursed the Qi people as hypocritical. Many people said that the Mo family had achieved the ultimate, but the Tian family's greed was endless, and they were afraid that the Qi people would definitely cross the border.

Some scholars sighed when they heard this: "The Mo family is the kindness of women, not the great benevolence, but they are bound by their own righteousness. Now the hearts of the Qi people are known to the world, but the Mo family still strictly adheres to the righteousness of non-attack. They do not gather large troops to destroy the Qi army led by Liang's father in the territory of Lu. When the Qi people enter Wucheng and meet with the nobles of Fei, they will suffer greater casualties..."

By early March, the Mohist family announced that they would not send troops to Lu and Qi to fight with Qi, and the news that they hoped that Qi would stop the horse spread across Qi and Lu, and kicked the ball back to Qi.

However, Qi State did not end up "stopped the horse", or the Mohist school never expected that Qi State could stop the horse by just reasoning. In early March, the reinforcements of the Liangfu Doctor of Qi State entered Wucheng.

On the same day, Ji Sunluan, the new king of Fei State, invited the Mohist family to fulfill his obligation to attack the alliance and expel the Qi people, hoping that the Mohist family would not forget their original promises.

At the same time, it was announced that in order to facilitate the non-aggressive alliance to better defend against the capture of the unrighteous king, Fei Guo handed over the military power to the Mo family, and the Mo family led the army, and in the future, part of each other.

Almost at the same time, the Mohist school announced that it would fulfill its obligation to attack the alliance and counted several major crimes of Qi's unjust crimes.

It seemed that the Mo family gave up the opportunity to annihilate Liang's father's father in Lu, which made the reconciliation between Liang's father's reinforcements and the nobles of Fei in Wucheng, but they were trusted and respected by scholars all over the world. They believed that the Mo family kept their promises and were very kind and righteous, and there was no stain on this matter.

The Mohist propaganda machine was also fully activated, and in a heart-wrenching manner, he said that the Qi State said something innocent at the beginning of Lu. In fact, he did not have the people of Lu in his heart, but used the Mohist heart to escape the fate of Liang's father being annihilated by the righteous army.

Such heart-killing words are too easy to be believed: just a few years ago, Qi had just attacked the most part of Lu, and the Duke of Qi who had never seen at that time had any unbearable feelings for the people of Lu.

On the surface, both sides of this confrontation got what they wanted and made a choice after weighing the gains and losses.

Qi lost its credibility as a great country and became the target of criticism by many people in the market, confirming the reputation of an unrighteous king under the Mohist view.

However, the most precious opportunity was obtained, which allowed the Mohist charity army to gather into Lu State, and the defeat of Liang's father and doctor in Lu State was gone. Successfully, the nobles of Fei State in Wu City were reconciled, making the defense of Wu City seem to be able to block the Mohist charity army's three months of siege.

On the other hand, the Mo family seemed to have lost the possibility of defeating Qi's interference in the territory of Lu, and won the trust and praise of the world, making the people in the world believe that the Mo family gave up this rare opportunity for the sake of the innocent Lu people, and would rather die and suffer more than hurt the innocent.

Although some women lamented the kindness of the people and some emotions in the army, they were still quite stable overall.

In fact, the Mo family actually had no intention of annihilating the 20,000 reinforcements from Liang's father in the territory of Lu, or they had too much appetite. Given the opportunity of the Vietnamese withdrawing from the south of the three Jin Dynasties to completely solve the issue of Huaibei's ownership, they deliberately gave up this opportunity and made a big fuss.

Just after this confrontation, while the Mohist family announced the declaration of war against Qi, the Wei State's State's Ministry of Justice Chengyang said that he must take care of Fei State's affairs and that the land of Wei State could not be reduced to the hands of others.

In the case of "not receiving the permission of the Marquis of Wei and being based on righteous indignation", part of Wei Han's troops gathered in Chengyang, with about 20,000.

Almost at the same time, more than 500 grassroots officials from the Mohist family quickly entered the southern part of the country of Fei and began to investigate the fiefs, property, manors, etc. of the fugitive nobles, count the population, distribute oxen iron tools, carry out land reforms, and organize spring plowing.

After the 7th Division of the Yishi Division stationed in Tan, it quickly entered Feiguo and joined forces with the Yishi Division people of the Feiguo capital. It defeated a small number of Qi and noble coalition forces near Wucheng, causing them to retreat to Wucheng to defend. The 7th Division began to eliminate various small towns arranged by those who learned the art of defending the city from the Mo family.

After attacking for several days, he could not break the city, so he stationed outside the city to siege, dig trenches and build camps. He made a long-term siege.

In early April, the main force of the Mo family began to frequently send scouts to the Fei Kingdom. A large number of civilians transported food and fodder to the Fei Kingdom along the land of Teng. The main force of the Yi Division prepared to assist the Fei Kingdom in the east to capture Wucheng. The Third Division stationed in Taoqiu returned to the side and seemed to want to reconcile with the main force, but did not want to face the Wei and Han alliance in the direction of Chengyang.

At the same time, the main force in the Linzi direction of Qi State had crossed Mount Tai and Wenshui, and marched towards the Qilu border, just to support Wucheng.

The Qi army in the Pingyin direction was also assembled and marched along the Ji River towards Chengyang, hoping to meet with the Wei and Han alliance forces in the Chengyang direction.

At this point, the world is in chaos.

The eyes of the people in the world are focused on the current Wei Zhao turn against each other and the battle between Si Shang. Many people have made judgments about the situation in Si Shang.

After retreating from the Third Division to Fangyu along Taoqiu, those who could know this made a judgment: the Seventh Division of the Mohist family and the righteous army of the Fei Kingdom could not conquer the Wucheng. The Mohist family regarded the secret of not passing on the city as the result of the heavenly will spread to the world, which was to seek trouble.

The third division retreated from Taoqiu, in order to meet with the main force of the Mo family in Teng land, and prepare to siege Wucheng with all its strength, give up its left wing Sishui direction, and strive to capture Wucheng before Chengyang's army attacked Sishui.

Because the Mohist family is proud of it, and everyone knows it is their city defense technique, based on the most normal judgment, the Mohist family is preparing to rely on their main force to break through Wucheng, and then quickly repair it, leaving a small number of troops in Wucheng, and blocking the Linzi army of Qi.

After breaking through Wucheng, the main force retreated to Teng land and prepared to fight the Qi, Wei and Han alliance in the direction of Pingyin of Chengyang, so as to rely on the defense of Wucheng and the victory of Sishui, which led to the withdrawal of Qi's troops.

For a time, Feiguo Wucheng became the focus of the Battle of Si Shang. Those who are concerned about this matter want to know: Can Wucheng support the arrival of the Linzi army of Qi under the attack of the main force of the Mohist Yishi?

If it can be supported, the situation of the Mo family will be completely dangerous. At that time, the main force of the Qi army is in Wucheng, and the Yi army is exhausted due to the defense of Wucheng. Once the war is defeated, the Three Kingdoms coalition forces in Chengyang can drive straight into Heshui and Sishui, threatening the hinterland of the Mo family.

Even if we cannot be defeated, but draw and withdraw our troops, the situation of the Mo family will be equally dangerous.

At that time, the Mohist family must divide their troops to defend themselves in the direction of Chengyang; once the troops are divided, the main force of the Qi army in the direction of Wucheng can gain an advantage, and the Mohist family can only retreat step by step. At that time, the troops equivalent to the Mohist family will be divided into two.

The Mo family wanted to win: that is, before the Linzi Legion of Qi State arrived at Wucheng, they would break through Wucheng and organize the defense of Wucheng. At the same time, they would retreat the main force to the intersection of Heshui and Sishui to find an opportunity to defeat the Three Kingdoms coalition in Chengyang, and also ensure that a small number of troops left in Wucheng could withstand the siege of the main force of Qi State.
