Qin had 200,000 troops and Yan had 50,000. Their combat power was already out of proportion, let alone this number. Moreover, the Qin army was led by the famous Wang Jian of the Seven Kingdoms, while the Yan Country's was led by the incompetent Yan Yi who only knew how to oppress the good people.
Before Jing Yu came to the drill ground, he had already received the news from Tianji. The information that had been sent over was only the intelligence of the Chu Country's spies. After he subdued the four lieutenants, he did not force Lieutenant Xu to take over their command. Commandant Xu continued to lead the thousand men he had trained for two years. One of the remaining four would be chosen to lead the four thousand men.
After that, he stayed in the military camp for three days before returning to Shouchun, the capital of Chu. He learned from Xiang Liang that he had asked Xiang Liang to report it to the King of Chu in his own name. The King of Chu did not pay attention to the memorial to strengthen the border defense.
Knowing that Jing Yu would not shoot without thinking, Xiang Liang was very anxious about this. After learning of King Chu's intentions, he was worried and secretly sent people to contact the guards of the border towns to tell them to be careful. However, it was unknown how effective this would be.
At this time, the Qin country had already secretly mobilized the supplies of four hundred thousand troops. Jing Yu knew this, but the Chu spies did not. If he made this news public, the world would know that he had a secret intelligence organization. Therefore, Jing Yu hid it from them.
On this day, Jing Yu brought the snow maidens and Qing 'er to a restaurant with private rooms. That was the seat he had already reserved. When the shopkeeper saw him, he hurriedly led him upstairs and said,
"Young Master, your guest has arrived.”
"Yes." Jing Yu nodded." Don't be in a hurry to serve the food and wine. I'll call you if I need anything."”
"Yes." The shop owner responded and made an inviting gesture before pushing open the door of the private room.
Jing Yu walked in and saw a tall man wearing a bamboo hat and a black and white cloak. He was facing the open window, apparently looking calmly at the street. Even when the door opened, he did not turn around.
"It's you?" Jing Yu was a little surprised. He said at the door," I see."”Then, he walked in.
Qinger and the snow maidens exchanged glances. Why did it seem as if they didn't know the guest he had called? The shop owner had already left. The two women followed Jing Yu in and closed the door behind him.
"You still remember me?" The man seemed surprised. Although he turned around after Jing Yu spoke, the bamboo hat he was wearing was too low, so Jing Yu couldn't see his face even with his current height. However, Jing Yu could feel that he seemed to be smiling.
"You're the strongest person I've ever met, so I naturally have some impression of you.”Jing Yu chuckled and pointed to the other side of the long table." Please sit."”
"Oh? You knew my strength when you were six years old?”That person also made an inviting gesture towards Jing Yu, but it was completely different from what the shop owner did just now. The shop owner's was servile, but his was equal. Moreover, his voice was not fawning at all. It was slightly low and steady, which was very consistent with his status as the leader of a sect.
In addition, Jing Yu didn't know if it was his misconception, but this person seemed to be treating him like an elder to a junior.
The two of them sat on both sides of the long table like nobles. Qinger poured a cup of tea for each of them. The two of them raised their cups to signal for them to drink together.
After putting down the teacup, Jing Yu did not answer his question. Instead, he asked,""Are you the giant of the Mo family?"
"Did you sense this as well?”The man did not answer and asked with interest.
"Not really…If you really aren't, then how high is the martial arts level of the Mo Family's giant?”Jing Yu shook his head and sneered.”
"Is it because you can't imagine it that you don't want to believe it?”"You're being a little arrogant," the man probed.”
Jing Yu's lips curled into a cold smile." Arrogant? That's because I have the ability to be arrogant in front of you.”
The strongest power in One Piece's world was enough to destroy the world. And he stood at the peak of that power. He was used to seeing powerful forces. When he looked at the power of this world, how could it attract his true attention? If he had to say it, he just felt that part of it was 'interesting'.
That person's bamboo hat was obviously a little more upstage. She probably didn't expect Jing Yu to say that, right? The reason he said that about Jing Yu was because he wanted to give him some pointers. Jing Yu was talented, and he felt that Jing Yu's talent was rare. However, Jing Yu's 'age' was too young. He was truly afraid that Jing Yu would take a wrong path. Not only would that be a loss to the world, but it would also very likely cause immeasurable harm to the world.
However, when he carefully sized up Jing Yu's face, he discovered that there wasn't the slightest arrogance on it. This made him frown. Could it be that what Jing Yu said was true?
After some thought, he glanced at Qinger and the snow maidens, then said to Jing Yu,"Do you think so in front of them?”
"Qinger's cooking is indeed delicious. The snow maidens 'dance and flute…I can't learn them either.”Jing Yu spread his hands." Looks like there's no other way…You really know how to find my flaws."”
"Young master, how can Qinger be that good?”Qinger, who was behind him, could not help but lower her head and blush when she heard his praise. The snow maidens, on the other hand, were very calm. They found Jing Yu's words very interesting.
That person also laughed." I'm confident that I won't be wrong about you. You won't become a heartless person.”He said," That's right. I'm indeed a giant of the Mo Family.”
"So, you came here today for the ore?”Jing Yu asked," The Mo Family should have an answer, right? I hope it will satisfy me."
"You're just like what they described you to be, a tyrannical brat.”The tone of the Mo family's giant did not change." Although the State of Qin attacked the State of Yan with the excuse that it was being played by the King of Yan, we all know that it was just an excuse. There was really no need to waste time and influence the birth of a peerless divine weapon for a dispensable excuse. We agree. You can give the ore to Teacher Xu to forge a sword.”
According to Master Xu's speculation, the ore could be used to forge a famous sword. In other words, even ordinary swordsmiths could use the ore to forge famous swords. And if he were to forge it, the finished product should be able to rank among the top three and have the possibility of competing with the "Heaven Asking".
"In that case, I'll thank Master Xu in advance.”Jing Yu raised his teacup and gestured to the Mo family giant.
"You're welcome." The giant also raised his teacup, and the two of them drank another cup.
"I still have one more thing that I would like to trouble the Mo family for.”When Qinger was pouring tea for the two of them, Jing Yu said in a low voice,"Right now, it is only a matter of time before the Qin Country takes down the Yan Country. It is most likely that it will be difficult for them to advance and will directly attack the Chu Country. With the presence of General Wang Jian, Chu Country's military strength, combat power, and supplies were all weaker than Qin Country's. In this battle, Chu Country would probably be destroyed.”
"Does Young Master want my Mo Family to help with this battle?”The giant frowned.
"No." Jing Yu smiled faintly." The Mo Family's disciples are all over the world. They must have their own ways. Not long after, I plan to send the non-combat members of the Xiang clan away in batches. At that time, he would ask the Mo family to make arrangements for him. If we win, they can come back, and if we lose, we won't have to worry.”
He had also sent thousands of people to infiltrate the various countries. This could not be exposed now. Even the manor where Teacher Xu studied the ore was disguised as a spy arranged by the Xiang clan for the Chu country.
Is this what you said earlier,'the country is a person, not a land'?”" Why didn't you move the others as well?" asked the Mo Family's giant. Or rather, he told them about this judgment.”
"Is this the Mo Family's 'Universal Love for Life'?"”"If you were the leader of a sect, how could you not imagine what the consequences would be if you told the others?" Jing Yu sneered. Firstly, no one would believe me, and only people would treat me as a fool. Secondly, the entire Chu State is in chaos. Before the Qin army arrives, the people here have already lost the courage to resist…No matter which one it is, the King of Chu will probably be very happy and execute me as a spy of the Qin State who spread rumors.”
"You don't seem to have any respect for King Chu.”The giant stared into Jing Yu's eyes." Could it be that you want to replace him?”
Jing Yu smiled and took a sip of tea before slowly saying,
"The Mohist school of thought has the concept of 'non-fate' which means that people can control their own fate through hard work. If he were to submit to King Chu, he would be like this and be suspected by him. When I could control my own fate, why didn't I work hard to achieve it and leave my fate in his hands? Moreover, he isn't a king that can make me happy.
In the Mohist school of thought, there was also the saying of " Heavenly Will ", which followed the laws of nature. The winner is king and the loser is the enemy.
In Mohism, there was also a saying of "Shang Tong", which said that the upper and lower levels served the people wholeheartedly. The world belonged to the people of the world, not to one person. Although I was born in Chu, the person I need to be loyal to is not the King of Chu.”
" You..." The Mo family's giant laughed." Very few rulers like the Mo family's way of thinking. If you become the king of the world, you can still follow the Mo family's way of thinking..." He glanced at Jing Yu. The latter part of his sentence was self-evident.
"Don't expect so much from me." Jing Yu shook his head at him and raised a finger.""The only thing I can promise you is that I won't let the Mohist school of thought disappear. If I were to rule the world, I would only choose the beneficial parts of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy.”
Then, they would use their contradictions to restrict each other. For example, Confucianism was good for governing and educating, but there were too many unnecessary etiquette. At this time, he could use the thoughts of the Mohists to get rid of unnecessary etiquette. The Mohist school's mechanism was helpful to society, but its idea of equality could be implemented hundreds or thousands of years later.
