Chapter 298 Fifteen town princes!(1/2)

"At my disciples, there are currently 235 Mohist disciples, including 24 senior craftsmen and 72 intermediate craftsmen. These people can be divided into two parts, some of which serve the king, and some continue to study under my disciples. Then, they will be rotated every year."

In order to enhance the influence of the Mohist school, Qin Huali chose to cooperate with Zhang Hua. At the cost, Mohist disciples needed to serve Zhang Hua.

When Zhang Hua heard that Qin Huali had recruited more than 200 disciples in Chang'an City, he couldn't help but look at it. It seemed that the Mohist school was very popular among the craftsmen.

If Qin Huali had not had strict requirements for his disciples, maybe there might be thousands of disciples in the Mo family.

After all, the Mohist school was once a prominent scholar with Confucianism. As the chief disciple of Mozi, Qin Huali was the second person in the Mohist school and had a prominent reputation. Many people wanted to join the disciple of Qin Huali.

Disciples who have been trained by the birds and slimes can at least become intermediate craftsmen after studying for a period of time.

"These people went to Yubi and Chencang to serve in the two cities, strengthening these two cities, and some of the disciples followed me to Kanto."

Zhang Hua divided the Mohist disciples who worked hard into three groups, each with appointments.

"I need to stay in Chang'an City and teach my disciples, so I will not go to war with the king."

The role of Qin Huali is more like a teacher, cultivating Mohist disciples in batches.

Qin Huali creates siege equipment by one person. No matter how skilled he is, his efficiency is not as good as a group of people to create siege equipment at the same time.

"What can Mr. Mohist arts create?"

Zhang Hua tests the ability of birds to slip.

One of the talents of Qin Huali is the Mohist arts, but only Qin Huali himself knows what he does.

Qin Huali replied: "This is the skill of making some exquisite equipment. Some ideas that I could not realize in the past have been realized in this world."

"If sir makes something interesting, please let me see it."

Zhang Hua was deeply interested in the Mohist arts mentioned by Qin Huali. If Qin Huali creates something amazing, it may also be helpful for fighting all directions.

"That's natural. Speaking of which, it takes a lot of materials to make these devices, especially good wood, which costs a lot of money."

The high cost of studying Mohist mechanisms is also one of the reasons why the birds have to rely on Zhang Hua.

If you don’t have money, you can’t afford to buy better wood, let alone the official business of salt and iron. The Mohist family also had to buy iron from the government.

"Every month, the Chang'an City government will provide the Mohist family with a batch of excellent wood and iron."

Zhang Hua increased his control over the Mohist school by providing raw materials to the Mohist school.

The Mohist school relies on the materials provided by Zhang Hua, and once it loses Zhang Hua's support, it will soon decline.

"The number of excellent craftsmen is far from enough. If you recruit 800 disciples in Guanzhong, if not enough, the government will help you catch strong men."

The more craftsmen, the better. Zhang Hua pressed the poultry and slid them, and quickly cultivated intermediate and advanced craftsmen.

“…”

Qin Huali found that no wonder Confucianism is so popular and has gained the support of the rulers. It is impossible not to be popular without it.

Zhang Hua came back to visit Mulan, and casually grabbed two figures from various schools of thought, including Qin Huali and Gongsun Long, and then led his troops out of Chang'an City.

Zhang Hua just returned to Chang'an City to understand the siege of Jade Bi.

Xie An's mansion, Xie Daoyun came out of the palace and came specifically to ask his uncle Xie An to come forward.

"You are late for this matter. The lord has led his troops out of the city."

Xie An knew that Xie Daoyuan was a generous female, but Zhang Hua led his troops to attack Guandong, so Xie An could not mention this matter to Zhang Hua.

Xie Daoyuan sighed: "When the young master returns from Guanzhong, I will ask my uncle to come forward to speak with the matchmaker."

"This matter is left to me. If there are people in our Xie family in the palace, it is naturally the best. Of course, the premise is that you are really willing to be your niece. Otherwise, what's the difficulty of finding a prince, prince, general, and minister? Those who want to cling to our Xie family can line up from Zhuque Street to the other end."

Xie An did not intend to be too wronged by his niece.

The Xie family in Jiangzuo is a famous family and many people cannot afford it.

...

In Shangdang City, the Taihang Mountains all over the towns gathered, and the soldiers were strong and the horses were strong.

In the middle of the camp, the lords here sat in the upper throne, summoned the princes of the towns and entrusted blood to form an alliance.

Outside the camp, a new recruit who joined the Wei army asked the narrator: "Brother Ding, who are the princes of the Eighteen Towns of Taihang Mountain?"

The veteran said proudly: "If you want to talk about the first throne, of course, it is our monarch Wei Wenhou! The seven heroes of the Warring States Period, the first overlord was not Qin, but Wei during the Wei Wenhou period. The monarch had 80,000 Wei troops, and the prince Xinlingjun was the main general. In this area, it was Xinlingjun who led the eighteen throne to defend against Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu in Changshan, and the battle of Changshan broke out. My finger was broken in Changshan."

Another veteran interrupted: "I heard that three of the eighteen towns of princes have been destroyed, and only fifteen towns of princes are left. The visitors are not good."

"If General Wu Qi was here, our king might have wiped out other princes long ago, so why would he be afraid of these people?"

"Oh, Wei Wenhou regards Wu Qi as his guest of honor. Unfortunately, Wei Wenhou's son, Wei Wuhou, is ashamed of Wu Qi, otherwise Wu Qi would... "

"Silence! Since you are my soldiers, you must enforce orders, otherwise military law will be dealt with! No noise!"

A general of the Wei State patrolled the camp with his Wei soldiers.

The first town of Wei Wenhou Weis, the prince of Weis, summoned other towns of princes into the camp, so no accident could occur.

Zhang Hua may send assassins to assassinate the princes of each town.

"Don't provoke the general, this is a cruel person who even dares to eat his own son."

"Really or not?"

"real."

After the general passed by, the veteran advised the new recruits.

The new recruits remembered that their military general was named Leyang. He heard that he attacked Zhongshan Kingdom under the order of Wei Wenhou. The king of Zhongshan killed Leyang's son and cooked it into meat soup to give it to Leyang. In order to show his loyalty, Leyang sat in the military tent and ate all the meat soup, and finally destroyed Zhongshan Kingdom.

Leyang is a tough guy who dares to eat even his son, and no soldier in the army dares to disobey Leyang's orders.

This person is also the ancestor of Le Yi, a famous general of Yan State.

Wei Si, the Marquis of Wen of Wei, sat in the main seat. Xinlingjun, one of the four princes of the Warring States Period, and dozens of civil and military officials of the Wei State attended the meeting, waiting for the arrival of all the princes.

"The second princes are in charge of Qi's king Tian Heng!"

"The third prince is the Han King Liu Zhiyuan!"

"The fourth princes, King Yan Murong Lin!"

"The fifth princes, Fan Chong, leader of the Red Eyebrow Army!"

"The sixth battles the princes and rebels against the Han general Wei Yan!"

"The seventh princes are in charge of the Liao king Yelu Deguang!"

...

"The 14th princes, the great general Huang Chao of the sky!"

The princes of all walks of life led their guards into Wei Wenhou's camp, with all the wicked men and murderous intent.

These people are powerful figures in their respective eras. It can be said that everyone has the ability to change history, from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Liao and Song Dynasties!

Their troops were around the Wei army camp. If Wei Wenhou, the leader of the alliance, dared to attack them, their troops would be besieged the Wei army camp from all directions.

Therefore, these princes were fearless.

The fourteen princes of the towns sat down, and the Wei Wenhou arranged the order according to their respective strengths.

The stronger the princes, the higher the position.

With his position as the overlord of the Warring States Period, Wei Wenhou had appeal among all the princes of Taihang Mountains.

During the Warring States Period, the first reform to strengthen was not Qin, but Wei.

Li Ju and Wu Qi reformed the Wei Dynasty earlier than Shang Yang's reforms.

Even Shang Yang's reforms came from the neighboring Wei Kingdom.

The reason why Wei failed to unify the six kings is that the six generations of Qin did not appear in Wei, and the third generation of kings was no longer possible.

As long as one or two generations of monarchs are bad, it will be difficult to sweep the six countries.

The Qin State was also extremely lucky to accumulate the national strength of the six generations of wise kings, and then the Qin King swept the Liuhe River.

But during the reign of Wei Wenhou, the Wei State was unprecedentedly powerful, no less than the Qin State behind it.

Therefore, the princes in each of them were quite convinced by Wei Wenhou.

If it were other princes, they might not be happy to let the other party be the leader.

Among all the princes, Wei Yan sat in the upper position with a scar on his face.

When Wei Yan heard that he was later killed by Yang Yi, Ma Dai and others, he thought he had not done anything to be sorry for Liu Bei, so he was very angry and used his sword to mark a knife on his face, then turned black, claiming to be a general against the Han Dynasty, and simply establishing his own power and becoming one of the eighteen princes of the Taihang Mountains.

Wei Yan was aggressive, and other princes in the town were also afraid of Wei Yan.

Wei Yan was angry and embarrassed because he learned his original fate. He showed signs of being possessed by evil spirits and became even more irritable. The other princes in the town were not very willing to provoke Wei Yan.

Wei Yan's ability is here, and he is also a powerful general.

The princes such as Tian Heng, Murong Lin, Fan Chong, Yelu Deguang, and Huang Chao were also fierce men or kings.

"I believe you already know that Zhang Xutuo, Sima Yue and Zhang Liang were also present, but they had been defeated by the troops sent by Zhang Hua, and they either fled or surrendered. If you don't want to repeat the same mistake, you should join the alliance and form a coalition force just like resisting Liu Xiu in Changshan to eliminate this army."

Wei Wenhou glanced at the princes below. These princes were rebellious and might not be convinced, but Wei Wenhou didn't care.
