This concept of unity actually doesn’t make much sense when you first hear it.But when the villagers, including those from the Youpai, went back to study it carefully, they felt that it made more sense the more they thought about it.

The chaos in the world is basically due to the decline of the royal family and the rise of the princes after the feudal princes were divided.

No one is convinced by anyone, so they fight back and forth.If there was a wise master who could unify the world, then everyone in the world would be one family, so there would be no need to fight.

As for that, does anyone want the Zhou royal family to continue to dominate the world?No way!The Zhou royal family is over a long time ago. Everyone in the world knows that the Zhou royal family has declined. Who would want them to come out again and harm the people of the world!
Sometimes, it's not that people don't know how to think, it's that after life is oppressive, they don't have time to think. It's like there is a fog. If no one clears it, it will always be chaos.Everything Jiang Anrao and Xinmo brought was like the wind blowing away the clouds and seeing the sun, slowly blowing away the fog that blocked people's eyes.

Everyone slowly began to yearn for that unified country that they didn't know where it was yet!

The Mo family's morning class was not long, only about half an hour. No matter how busy the villagers were with their livelihood, they finally found time to come out and just wanted to listen.

At first they pretended to be passing by secretly, but after the Mo family said they could listen and listen casually, the villagers finally no longer had to be secretive. When the time came, they all came out and walked nearby, waiting to listen to the Mo family's morning and evening classes.

During the day, when the Mo family is doing things, some children from the village will come over curiously. As long as there is no danger, the Mo family will not care. If the children want to learn, they will teach them patiently and even scratch the ground with branches. , teach children to read!
This really excited the villagers!
Literacy is the privilege of the nobility!Ordinary people, there are many who have been unable to read a single Chinese character for three lifetimes!What a great opportunity children have nowadays to learn to read and arithmetic!
Soon, the ink merchant brought by Jiang Anrao became the most popular person in several nearby villages!
They make things by themselves, and teach the villagers to make things together, and then sell them together. The Mohists naturally blend in with ordinary people and mingle together.After cleaning their minds with thoughts, it only took a short time for the people in Youjiacun and the original Yousect to become completely different. There was an earth-shaking change from life to mental state.

To use ordinary people's words, the spirit is completely different!

At this time, this area also became unstable.

After Sima Cuo captured Fuling, he did not go down the river as people thought, but unexpectedly went up the Wu River, then moved upstream to the Yuan River and captured Qianzhong County.

Zhijiang is quite close to Qianzhong County. At this time, the people of Chu were a little worried, fearing that after the Qin army occupied Qianzhong County, they would continue to attack the city and seize territory, and even go to the people of Chu to loot and massacre.

But the Qin army did not.After occupying Qianzhong County, Qin and Chu began negotiations.

Central Guizhou belongs to the hinterland of Chu State, and Chu State naturally wants to take it back, but Qin State's original intention is not to capture and occupy it.

What King Qin Zhao wanted more was actually Shangyong and the northern Han Dynasty.Those two places are closer to the mainland of Qin, and there are waterway connections to Bashu and Qin.What Qin wanted most was control of this waterway.

As long as those two places were returned to the Qin State, it would actually be of great benefit to the Qin Dynasty, both in terms of being easier to guard and in terms of future troop movements.With the waterway of the Han River, it will be more convenient for the Qin army to attack Chu in the future. Then they can attack whenever they want!

Of course, the Chu State did not want to give anything, so while they were talking, the Chu army was trying to take back Qianzhong County. Sima Cuo stopped sending troops and guarded Qianzhong County.When the Chu army came, they retreated and waited for the outcome of the negotiations between the two countries.

As a result, the people in the surrounding Chu region suffered.The Qin army really did not do anything to the residents of Chu, but reinforcements from the Chu army continued to come.

The original Chu army in Qianzhong County was defeated and dispersed. Some deserters were added to the Chu army who wanted to take back Qianzhong. However, there were also some Chu army deserters. They were afraid when they heard that it was the Qin army and did not want to fight with Qin. The soldiers were attacking him, so he sneaked away completely.

Many of these Chu troops had insufficient training time and insufficient equipment. As soon as they turned around and ran away, they were just like ordinary refugees!
Then these people went to the battlefield and saw blood. They became deserters. They did not dare to return home and had no way out. In order to survive, they all became desperadoes.These people simply gathered in groups and robbed others.

Of course they would not dare to go to cities that were defended by city walls or even garrisoned by troops. Their targets were traveling merchants and villagers in various villages.

Originally, Youjia Village was only twenty or thirty miles away from Zhijiang. It was very convenient for Mo merchants to follow the villagers to buy and sell things. However, after encountering robbers on the way twice in a row, Jiang Anrao knew that there was no such thing here now. It's safe.

The villagers are panic-stricken, but the crops they planted have not yielded any harvest, and they have only saved a few money these days. If they really leave the village, they will have nowhere to go. How will they survive in the future?
They can't leave!Then we can only pray that the bandits composed of deserters will not come to attack their village.

Will the bandits come?This is a question that everyone is concerned about, but in Jiang Anrao's view, no matter whether they will come or not, they must prepare in advance.

Jiang Anrao called Zhang Quan and asked him to convene a meeting with all the principals of Youjia Village to discuss the issue of village defense.

"As you all know, those rogue bandits were formerly soldiers of the Chu State. They had received some training, had been on the battlefield, and had seen life and death. Ordinary villagers would definitely suffer if they faced them.

Now that a nearby village has been looted by them, I think that after they have squandered what they grabbed, they will soon loot the next village, just like locusts.

At this time, there will be no army coming out to help exterminate these bandits, so everything will have to be done by ourselves.

Everyone present is from Youjia Village. I have called you here to discuss how to defend against these rogue bandits.

But before I tell you the specific countermeasures, I still want to hear if anyone is familiar with the villages that were poisoned?Is it possible to know the number of these bandits and their hiding places from the villagers? "

These people who burned, killed and looted were not good people. They would not feel guilty even if they killed!Knowing how many of these bandits there are and where they are hiding, you can better formulate a response strategy and find ways to deal with them!

In fact, there are nearly a thousand people in Chu Mo in this area!If there was such unity as Xinmo, these bandits would have been wiped out long ago!However, Chu and Mo are not united, and each of them sweeps the door without saying anything, and it is easy for them to add insult to injury at critical moments!
