Chapter 514
There are actually three problems with Wei's southern line.

But because the current state of Wei cannot support a four-front war, a trade-off must be made.

Zheng people in Suanzao and other places want to return to Zheng. I feel that it is better to belong to Wei than to belong to Han.

This question is not counted, so the remaining three questions are worth pondering.

Jiasi on the Central Plains, this is the strategic focus after Wei Guo gave up Wu Qi's use of Mohist non-aggressive soldiers to destroy Qin first and then take the Central Plains.

The Chen-Cai issue involves Wei State's central plains strategy centered on Daliang. Chu State is the number one enemy of Wei State. The king of Chu attacked Wang Ziding, which is something Wei State will inevitably interfere with.

This matter is the top priority.

Wei and Han have always worked together, but Wei's food was a bit domineering before, and South Korea is not working hard now.

And now I want to use this matter to remind Wei Guo: It is okay for me to contribute, but you have to let me eat Zheng Guo.It can't be said that I will be your pawn in the front and work hard for you. In the end, I will swallow Zheng Guo and you will still be chattering and mediating in various ways.

Now that South Korea has moved its capital to a place across the river from the remaining one-third of Zheng State's land, Wei and Han sent troops together, Wei State must pay the price and acquiesce in South Korea's embezzlement of Zheng State.

South Korea can destroy Zheng without the help of Wei Guo, but Wei Guo needs the consent of Wei Guo, because Wei Guo does not want South Korea to annex the remaining third of Zheng Guo, and wants to keep it for himself in the future.

But now, the Koreans chose a good time. Wei and Han joined forces to interfere with Chen Cai, fought against Chu again, and raised the matter of rebellion. The meaning behind it is very clear.

Wei Guo not only interferes with Zhao State, but also fights against Chu State. It is difficult for South Korea to do nothing: Chu State has been changing in recent years, and the Mohists have a lot of activities in Chu State. With the training of the new army, the combat effectiveness of the Chu State is no longer the same as it was back then.

Now there is another news from Wang Ziding that the king of Chu attacked the city very quickly and skillfully, and was good at digging tunnels and shelling. It is obvious that people from the Mo family were involved.

But the Mohists in the capital of Wei vetoed it, saying that the Mohists did not send troops, and that the Mohism would not interfere in the internal affairs of Chu at that time, and the Mohism only helped the Chu State train a new army for the purpose of attacking and defending Chu. None of the Mohists joined the army as generals.

As for the gunners and engineers digging tunnels in the King of Chu's army, they were probably hired by the King of Chu after they retired from serving in the volunteer army.

Or, some people think that this event is beneficial to the world, and they participated voluntarily and voluntarily, which is also uncertain.

Too far away and no proof.

However, it doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not, whether the Mohists participated or not, what the Mohist’s emissary here conveys an attitude: Mohist will not participate in this Wei-Chu hegemony, just like last time .

Attitude is very important. Even if troops are actually sent, saying that no troops have been sent means that there is still room for manipulation in this matter.

Wei Jian asked Uncle Cuo about this: "Then the prince affirms that Mohists will participate in the matter of Chen Cai, what do you think of this matter?"

Uncle Cuo asked back, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Wei Jian shook his head and said, "I don't know. In the battle of Shangqiu, the Mohist army beheaded the great Sima of Chu, and had enmity with the Chu clan. The prince insisted that the assassination of King Chu Sheng was the work of the Mohist or the Song people, and he opposed the Mohism. Chen Cai is adjacent to the Song Dynasty and close to Mo, and the Mo family must not like Xiong Ding."

"But they said they didn't participate, or that some people participated voluntarily. Is this because the Mohists don't want to be our enemy?"

Uncle Gong smiled and said: "That's exactly what I mean. If not, Chu and Mo will join forces to attack Chen Cai. What news do you think we will get now?"

Wei Jian laughed and said: "If that's the case, Xiong Ding may have fled to the front of the widow."

Uncle Gong also smiled and said: "That's right. Chen Cai is so stable, even if we want to send troops, we may not have time to react. It can be seen that the Mo family does not want to be an enemy of us. As for Chen Cai's artillery and hand soldiers who attacked the city, it is Whether it was voluntary or sent by the Mohists is not important."

"Yes, we pretend not to know. No, we really don't know. Then, the matter of Chen Cai is the matter between Wei Han and Chu. If we question it, or if we know it and tell it, then Chen Cai is Wei Han. The matter between Han and Mo Chu."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid you don't want me, a soldier from Wei, to face Che Guang from Chu and the righteous teacher of the Mohist school?"

Wei Jian nodded and said: "I don't want to. It's hard to fight. Then, what about Fei Guo's affairs? They are relying on the widow, and the widow wants to be killed. I'm afraid this matter will hurt the Mo family, and they will join forces with the Chu people..."

"If you give up the affairs of Feiguo, it's like having fat on your lips, but you insist on throwing it away and not eating it, and everyone will feel unwilling."

The fattest meat in the world is on Sishang, and Taoqiu to the north of Sishang is the fattest meat in the world.Uncle Cuo naturally also hoped that he would be able to take Taoqiu as his fief during the years he was prime minister. It is said that the industrial and commercial tax Tao Qiu collects every year can make Taoqiu equal to [-] other fiefdoms.

Sishang, Central Plains, and Huaibei, these are what the Wei State must acquire in its struggle for hegemony.The premise is to complete the strategy for Zhao and Zhongshan, occupy the main beam, and continue to expand.

Wei Jian said it was a piece of fat on his lips, so why didn't Gongshu Cuo think so?
But Gong Shucuo did not directly talk about his own thoughts, but said: "A few days ago, I was bored and read a book in the middle of the night. I looked at the Mongolian children's textbook in the township school in Mojiasi. There is a very interesting story. Please help me Your Majesty will tell."

Wei Jian laughed loudly and said, "Qing also read the books of the Mohists?"

Uncle Gong worshiped: "The "Poetry" says: The crane roars in Jiugao, and the sound is heard in the sky. The fish lie in the Zhu, or the hidden deep. , can attack jade."

Wei Jian nodded, and asked Uncle Cuo to explain.

Uncle Gong smiled and said: "Then the textbooks of the Mohist school mostly use rural dialects, not elegant accents, and they are all spoken languages, which are things children learn. Please translate them into texts."

"Said: The clam comes out to expose, but the snipe pecks its flesh, and the clam closes and pinches its beak. The snipe said: 'If it doesn't rain today, if it doesn't rain tomorrow, there will be dead clams. If it doesn't come out tomorrow, there will be a dead snipe'. The two refuse to give up, and the fisherman will catch them together."

"In the textbooks of the Mohists, it is said that the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman wins. It also says that the mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind. It is the same story."

"Qi State is also involved in Fei State's matter now, and the Mohists may not be able to tolerate Qi State's occupation, so this is an opportunity."

"Your Majesty wants to win Sishang, don't the people of Qi want to have it?"

Wei Jian sighed and said, "I still ask the Son of Heaven to ask the emperor about the field and the title of Marquis, but he may not be willing to obey me even though he is a Marquis."

Gong Shucuo said: "That is bound to not be obeyed. In the past, Jin Wen fled, married Qin Ji, and relied on Mu Gong's power to take the throne. Is there no struggle between Qin and Jin? Qi State wants to win Sishang, just as The hungry and the needy desire food."

"Now that the Qi State is going to send troops, it is the snipe and the clam fighting, and the king can take advantage of the fisherman."

"If you want to benefit, you have to participate in this matter, otherwise you will have no name. But if you want to participate, you can't make the Mohists and Chu work together to ruin the Chen Cai thing. When participating, you need to find a way to let Qi State do its best. Weaken the state of Qi and prepare for the king to occupy Sishang in the future by occupying Chengyang and Linqiu."

"If Qi fights with the Mohists and is exhausted, the king has Chengyang and Linqiu in his hands, the affairs of Chen and Cai are settled, the chaos of Zhao is subsided, and Sishang will not fly away. Isn't it the king's gain after all? At that time There is no reason, so what? I am strong and strong, and I want to take it, who dares not accept it?"

Wei Jian rejoiced and said: "I heard that the snipe and the clam are fighting each other, and I have the same meaning. You know my heart well. It's just that I am afraid that although the snipe and the clam are fighting, they will not do their best... How can the Qi State do its best?"

Gong Shucuo said: "Sishang, the Qi people want to win, and the king also wants to get it. The people of Qi know that the king wants to win, and the king also knows that the people of Qi want to win. However, because the people of Qi were cutting down the most in the past, I am afraid that they will not be able to control the Mohist army. I have some fears, so I have to find a way to make the people of Qi dare to send troops. I also have to find a way to make the people of Qi dare to send troops, and then go to war with the Mohists and do my best."

"The Mo family's actions are difficult to figure out, and the Qi State's actions are also tempting."

"How can the people of Qi not be afraid of the military power of the Mohists? This requires the emperor to repair the book Tianhe, saying that the affairs of the Fei country must be taken care of, and indicating that Wei Han and Qi will work together to divide the land between Fei. The book of the emperor must let Tian He have So confident, I will not hesitate to start a war with the Mohists."

Wei Jian sighed and said, "It's just that we have to worry about Zhao, the Zhongshan Rebellion, and the Chen-Cai Alliance...I'm afraid we can't send too many troops. Moreover, if we send too many troops, how can we consume Qi? What about national power?"

Uncle Gong smiled and said: "Your Majesty edited the book on Tianhe, it was to make Tian He dare to go to war. However, Your Majesty wrote the book later, saying that it would take time to mobilize soldiers and fodder, and that Xihe soldiers moved to Donghe at least half a year. Time. Marquis Qi please wait for half a year, when the time comes, join forces to attack together, and then one half will be half."

Speaking of this, Wei Jian has come to his senses.It is impossible for the Xihe soldier to be used in Zhao's land, at least not at this time, so to say that is actually defrauding Tian He.

If not, Uncle Zuo said: "The strength of Xihe soldiers is known all over the world. If you say so, Tian He must have already put your energy on Sishang. Once the soldiers arrive, each of them will be half of them. Unwilling."

"Your Majesty said this, and Marquis Qi is even more convinced that Your Majesty will definitely send troops, so Tian He will think that if the battle with the Mohists is unfavorable, we Wei Guo will also help, so this will further encourage his determination to send troops."

"However, Marquis Qi will think that it will be difficult for Qi to gain an advantage over Fei when it is ready in half a year. They will definitely use various reasons to say that this matter is urgent, and then quickly gather troops to go out to fight against us. Front."

"Your Majesty, in order to make Qihou more convinced that we are going to seize Sishang, and also make him believe that we can be his allies in attacking Sishang Mohism, and can send thousands of people nearby. First, we will continue to write books to let Tian He wait for a while. And once the troops are sent out, these ten thousand people will also go out immediately, as if they can't wait and don't want Qi to take the lead, they would rather send ten thousand people to fight before the soldiers arrive."

"In this way, Tian He is convinced that we have the same heart, and Tian He is in a league with Tian He, letting Tian He do it. At the same time, it also makes Tian He dispatch troops more urgently and more, and strive to get ahead of us. But we will wait and see what happens. If The decisive battle between the Mohists and the Qi State was extremely exhausting. Thinking about it, at that time Zhao and Zhongshan were at peace, Chen and Cai were settled, the Mohist family and the Qi State were feuding, and the Qi State was in decline. At that time, wouldn’t Tian He only be able to look north and look at Wei?"

"The most difficult thing in forming an alliance is that it is better to guard against allies than against enemies. This is the truth in a world of great contention. Wei defends against Qi, how can Qi not guard against Wei? However, with the prosperity of Marquis Wen, Qi does not know Wei We still think that Wei can go to war on all sides without losing, and this is exactly what we can take advantage of."

"The more you say that you want to join forces to send troops, the more anxious the Qi State will be after half a year's delay. The more you say you want to mobilize soldiers to act together, the more Qi State will think about acting alone. But if you directly say that you don't intervene, Qi State will be afraid that we will see him and The Mohists fight for profit, but they may not move."
