Xiang Lige looked at Heifu and found that this was a man as swarthy as him, with this complexion, most of the results of years of outdoor labor, Qianshou Qiantou, and his head was also dark.

Therefore, this Qin official may also be from a humble background, but he is not very old now, but he can sit under the head of Du Wei Li, which shows that he must be a close confidant and a cadre, and he should not be underestimated......

So Xiang Lige said: "I don't know what this captain means? ”

Heifu said: "Xianglizi also said that the two armies will fight for the pool, and the number of people killed will be tens of thousands, and the number of people will be thousands. In this case, wouldn't it be beautiful to go back and let the defenders in the city surrender and avoid unnecessary killings? If you can, please also ask the Mo of the South to go to Shouchun again, let the king of Chu confer the head, and let the lieutenant take him back to Xianyang to confess the crime, then we don't have to attack, and the people of Chu have returned to the Qin State, so naturally they don't have to be affected, but can live and work in peace and contentment under the new order......"

Xiang Lige's face sank: "Is this leader joking?" ”

Heifu smiled: "Isn't Xiang Lizi also joking? You also know that it is impossible for the Chu State to surrender because of a few words. The commander and commander here are ordered by the king and the general to attack the city and pull out the land, and they only act according to orders, how can they abandon their duties because of your words? Therefore you puff out your tongue here, and no matter what you say, it will not help! ”

Xiang Lige's face froze, and he sighed: "When I left the city, the master and the others also persuaded me to do the same, but I just wanted to try...... Let's see if we can be like Zi Mozi back then, control Chu and attack the Song Dynasty, and avoid a military disaster. Now it seems that it is impossible to change the meaning of the captain? ”

Li You glanced at Heifu appreciatively, and at the same time said with a straight face: "Destroying Chu is the heart of the king, and it is the heart of tens of millions of people in the Qin Kingdom, and it is impossible to change it!" There is no need to say more! ”

"In that case......

Xiang Lige glanced at everyone and arched his hand: "We can only accompany us to the end, and greet each other with the method of guarding the city of the ink man!" Fight for the city and kill people, but in this battle, most of the people who die will inevitably be Qin people! ”

It is impossible to convince people with a simple mouth cannon, and the biggest reliance of the Mo of the South to lobby the princes in the past was the Mo family's method of defending the city, which made the attackers suspicious of the possible losses.

"This is not necessarily true, Xiang Lizi thinks that the Qin army of the Qin State is the Chu army of the Chu State."

Heifu said: "You just said that the army of the Qin State fought and abandoned the people in the country to plough and plant, harvest and gather, so that the people were hungry and cold, and they died of cold and starvation? Xiang Lizi did not go to the Qin State, did not know the customs of Qin, its people Pu, and the officials of the Duyi government were solemn, until the autumn harvest Dafeng did not send troops, in Nanjun, this year's harvest, the county public land more than 600,000 stones! It can provide food and clothing for the whole army for one month. ”

And the Qin law was strict, strictly ordering that brothers who lived together were not allowed to be recruited together, so every household had labor left behind, and there were officials and Tiandian to organize farming and labor, and there were good craftsmen to make instruments, saving the labor of the people. This is true of the southern counties, and so are the counties of the Qin State. Therefore, Qin's hundreds of thousands of troops went out to fight, the soldiers did not have to be three times, the grain did not have to be three years, and domestic production was not greatly affected. ”

"On the other hand, the Chu army, holding each other for several months, has a vegetable face, and can't even hold on for a few months, so it can only lead the troops to retreat east and protect it, and the people along the way run with it, abandoning the green seedlings in the fields, and the city of Sheli Lu is not counted......"

"Therefore, it is true that this war will cause more harm to the military and people of Chu State. As for the battle for the city and land, in addition to us, there will be a tenfold army arriving later, a division of 100,000, surrounding a small city of three miles, which can be broken overnight! Not to mention, there is ink in the city, and there are ink people in our army. ”

Xiang Lige glanced at Cheng Shang and said regretfully: "Qin Mo really no longer believes in the way of Zi Mozi?" ”

Although Cheng Shang was embarrassed by Xiang Lige's words, he listened and thought about it for a long time, and he finally mustered up the courage again and said to Xiang Lige: "Xiang Lizi is wrong, Qin Mo is also fulfilling Zi Mozi's way of being the same in his own way!" ”

Zi Mozi said: When the ancients were born and the people were born, there was no criminal government, and the opinions expressed by the people of the world in words also differed from person to person. It is based on one person for one righteousness, two for two people, and ten people for ten righteousness, and the more people, the more different opinions there are. Everyone thinks that their own opinion is right and the opinion of others is wrong, so they attack each other, and this is the origin of the fight. ”

"In modern times, the princes of the world, because of disagreement, have all killed each other with water, fire and poison, so that the world is chaotic, like birds and beasts fighting each other."

"Therefore, Mozi said, only more mouths are good and prosperous. If you want to fight the army, you can only let the righteousness of the world come out of one mouthful! All the nations of Kyushu belong to one country! Then we can continue to promote the way of love and mutual benefit! Realize the unity of the world! ”

As soon as he said this, Cheng Shang felt much happier.

Although all ink writers recite the Ink Sutra, the emphasis of different schools is different.

Qin Mo's criterion is "the official is impermanent, and the people are not endurally low", as well as "the righteousness of the same world". Mozi believed that inconsistent government decrees could only lead to social chaos, so when top-down management was implemented, everything should be unified at the top. This kind of highly centralized ideology coincides with the Qin Legalists, which is also the reason why the Qin kings of the past dynasties were able to allow Qin Mo to exist, and it is also the way for Qin Mo to realize his ideals.

However, the ink of the south is biased towards "love and non-attack", and "words must be believed, deeds must be fruitful, so that words and deeds are combined, and they are still in line with the moderation", which still follows the Mohist code of conduct two hundred years ago.

Therefore, the two cannot be said to go together, and they regard each other as revisionist heretics.

Therefore, Qin Mo chose Qin ......, which is known as the country of tigers and wolves Want to wipe out all the extra sounds one by one? In the end, the king of Qin was served alone in the world? ”

Xiang Lige disagreed, he didn't think that a brutal country with strict punishment and strict laws could entrust Zi Mozi's way.

Cheng Shang was also worried in his heart, but after he groaned for a while, he still insisted: "Because only in the Qin State can we realize the ambition of the ink man who is impermanent and noble, and the people who are not endurally cheap!" ”

Heifu is the most qualified to say this, and he also said: "However, in the Qin State, the prime minister must start from the state department, and the fierce general must be sent from the army." The clan must not have a military merit theory, and must not have a fief or a subordinate title. Those who have military merits, regardless of their background, can enjoy Juelu. For example, my black husband, who has no surname and no name, but because of his military exploits, he is now ranked among the doctors. ”

"However, the state of Chu is the opposite of Qin, and I have heard that the king of Chu placed the favored courtiers, clan relatives and brothers on the left and right, regardless of their talents, and made them official officials, allowing them to form parties for personal gain, and conceal good ways. If I were in the Chu State, I'm afraid I'm still just a disciple of the Sect, right? ”

For this, Xiang Lige cannot deny it.

"Therefore, in the past hundred years, Qin Yi is strong, and Chu Yi is weak, the war has not started, and the victory and defeat have been divided! In this battle, Chu will die and Qin will win! ”

Five hundred years of chaos among the princes has caused too much pain and must be ended, although the Qin who ended it cannot escape the fate of collapse. Although Qin Shi Huang, although he would implement the same book and the same text of the car and the same track, and wanted to make the world unified, he couldn't stop the desire to conquer, and he was in a hurry to fight the army, and he couldn't pin his hopes on Qin Mo and love non-aggression and eliminate the war.

But this whole process, like the labor pains of childbirth, cannot be stillborn in order to avoid pain.

Heifu finally said: "There is a saying in the Qin State, which is called 'The world changes time, and it is appropriate to change the law'. This is like a doctor who treats a disease, the disease is ever-changing, the medicine is also ever-changing, the disease is the same as the medicine, and the prescription that worked in the past can only exacerbate the patient's suffering! ”

"Now that Qin is destroying Chu, it is the general trend in one day, and the ink of the south blindly prevents the war, which is no longer helpful. Long pain is not as good as short pain, like Qin Mo, to help Qin speed up the pace of unification of the world, it is in line with the times! Xianglizi, that's what I said, you still lived two hundred years ago, and you don't know the changes in cold, summer, autumn and winter! ”

There was some sadness in Xiang Lige's eyes: "What this leader said doesn't seem to be bad, but Qin Mo wants to abide by his own morality, and Southern Mo must also abide by his own morality!" Even if it goes against the so-called general trend, we can't change our will and say goodbye! ”

After that, he was about to turn around and leave, but Meng Jia, the leader who had been listening for a long time, stopped Xiang Lige with his sword, and said coldly: "You still want to go back?" ”

The short guards at the door, also with a halberd in front, blocked Xiang Lige's way.

Xiang Lige turned around and looked at Heifu, Cheng Shang, and Li You, his eyes were full of death.

"My master and more than 30 people from the south have been holding the vessels of the palace and waiting on the city of Ruyin. The southern ink man helps the weak to resist the strong, and loves the ambition of non-attack, although he kills me, he can't stop it! ”

……

Li You finally waved his hand and let Xiang Lige leave.

On the way back to Ruyin, Xiang Lige remembered the words arguing in the tent, and not only sighed.

When Li You asked him to come out of the account, he told him that even if the Southern Mo could stay in Ruyin for a day or two longer, he would not be able to escape the fate of falling when the Qin army arrived.

Moreover, even if they block the Qin army a little along this way, the main force of the Qin army north of Yingshui will continue to attack the city and conquer the territory, and fight brutally with the Chu army that resists step by step.

Therefore, everything that Southern Ink has done is just the middle of the road, and in the face of thousands of chariots rushing wildly, the praying mantis that raises its arms high and wants to stop them from moving forward will not stir up the slightest wave except that it is crushed by itself......

Why don't they know these things?

"Words must be believed, deeds must be fruitful, so that words and deeds are combined, as if in line with the festival, this is something that the ink must follow, Meng Sheng because of the difficulty of dying with one hundred and eighty ink people. Even though it is difficult for us to reverse the general trend, we have promised Ruyin that even if the Qin army really attacks it with a division of 100,000, the ink of the south will know that it cannot be done, and live and die with it! ”

The rich and noble cannot be lewd, the poor and the lowly cannot be moved, and the mighty cannot be bent, although this is the words of Meng Ru, it can be placed on the ink people, and it is also the criterion for their behavior!

Thinking of this, Xiang Lige clenched his fists and quickened the pace of his feet, everything he saw in the Qin army camp today, and the information he learned, was also of great help to defend the city! You have to go back quickly and tell the Master and your companions.

However, just as he was halfway there, he heard a dense sound of horses' hooves and wheels behind him!

In the dust, two chariots and ten riders came from behind and stopped in front of him!

Xiang Lige took a look, and the one standing on the car was the blackface who spoke extraordinarily in the tent......

"Heff is the leader."

Xiang Lige looked at the rider who was approaching him, and said coldly: "Didn't Captain Li let me go?" Could it be that he has repented? ”

"The lieutenant only promised to let you leave the camp, but he didn't promise to let you go back to Ruyin."

Xiang Lige's face froze, he still thought that he could retreat like Zi Mozi went to Chu! Who would have thought that a black man who didn't speak of faith would come halfway!

"Faithfulness?"

Heifu smiled disapprerovingly: "This is not the Spring and Autumn Period, and I am not an ink man, the two armies are fighting, they are all trying to force each other to death, what kind of faith do you talk about?" You also said that if there is ink to defend the city, it will definitely cause most of the Qin people to be killed and injured. I thought about it for a while, and I felt that after you go back, inform the guards in the city of our army's truth, and then arrange clever equipment at the head of the city and command the army and people of Chu to garrison, you may kill ten more of my soldiers, or even a hundred of my subordinate soldiers! If I bring out my soldiers like my brothers and sisters, I will bring them back, and will I let them die in vain for the sake of so-called faith? ”

After speaking, Heifu waved his hand and said: "Second and third sons, tie up this person and escort him back to the camp, and if you don't break it, you will always be locked up!" ”
