Chapter 054 The Painful Fugitive
Qin Mo sat in his mansion in Yuecheng, Hetao, crying moaned, whimpering like a child, because last night he dreamed of a young widow who pulled his mother's kind face and calling out her with one hand.
As for Shang Yang's reforms, the law became increasingly strict. He was just a small mistake, but he implicated his mother and his wife and children. If it weren't for his friend's dog slaughter, he would have lost his life if he hadn't been to his friend's dog slaughter.
When he escaped, he knew clearly that Shang Yang's reforms had made Qin powerful enough. Looking at the princes of the Central Plains, no country could compete with him, even the Wei State at its peak.
He knew his ability. If he defected to those vassal states dominated by nobles, he could only be an insignificant little man. As a loser, he lived under someone's disciple and became a despicable diner. He could not change anything at all, nor could he drive a vain state to destroy Qin for himself.
Therefore, Qin Mo chose to defect to Lin Hu, who was in the wilderness. Because in his opinion, Lin Hu, who had the fertile land of Hetao, could quickly become stronger with his own assistance and become the most powerful country in the north. Then, with the help of the northern highlands, he went south and swept across the entire Qin State, and his great revenge was avenged.
But reality completely defeated his fantasy, because after 10 years of hard work, he finally knew a truth, and suddenly turned a barbaric nation into an empire that abides by the rules, understands the truth, and thus becomes stronger. It is really like a fool.
Because if you want to become a powerful country that can at least destroy Qin, the most fundamental thing is not whether the land is rich, but whether it depends on people and the accumulation of human qualities.
As a result, he was busy here for 10 years, but achieved nothing.
Regardless of his wife and children, his mother died innocently. This heart-wrenching pain bit his heart anytime and anywhere. At only 40 years old, Qin Mo is now as white as snow.
"Qin State, I will never be a human being if I don't destroy you." Qin Mo grabbed his hair again and again, crying and roaring in depression.
But as time passed, these roars became less and less confident and became more and more subdued.
Shang Yang died, 10 years ago, and died very miserably. When he heard this news, Qin Mo yelled in a carnival because one of his big enemies died. So is the second one far away?
Qin Mo did not think that the one who killed his mother was Shang Yang like an ordinary person.
He clearly knew that the one who killed his mother was indeed the law organized by Shang Yang, but the one who really implemented this law was the damn King of Qin and the damn Qin. His enemy was Qin and the one who owned the Qin State.
But he cheered for Shang Yang's affairs. Because Shang Yang died, his reform that made Qin powerful would be extinguished, and Qin would decline again.
But he was disappointed again because the Qin State was not as he imagined. As other reformed countries had lost their power, they were declining again due to the demise of their own country. The King of Qin wisely chose to kill Shang Yang to calm internal political differences. However, he still implemented Shang Yang's reform rules and regulations, and still made Qin State stronger step by step.
Qin Moyou hoped to transform Lin Hu, and implemented reforms in Lin Hu, and then led the powerful Lin Hu to destroy Qin State to take revenge, but now he has to use all his energy to fight against the powerful Qin that has been constantly moving northward to erode Lin Hu Hetao. The Qin State cannot struggle as expected.
As Qiang Qin advanced northward step by step, his hope for revenge became increasingly slim, and he was approaching despair.
If your mother cannot be revenged, what reason can you have to survive in this world?
Pulling out the sword again and putting him on his neck has become a subconscious action of him. I believe that people have souls after death. If they die, they can go downstairs and reunite with their wives and children, and the family will live a carefree life under their mother's knees.
But after every trial, he threw the sword to the ground dejectedly. Although he firmly believed that the soul would not die after death, the tombs of his mother and family were in Qin State, and he did not know the exact location. When he died, his soul wandered between heaven and earth, but could not find his mother's home, and he became a lonely ghost.
"We must make Lin Hu powerful, even if it is so powerful that only one army can enter Qin State, then fight to the hometown, find my mother's tomb, and hang myself in front of my mother's tomb. From then on, Lin Hu's life and death have nothing to do with me." This is already a second-rate wish.
The wife quietly walked to him, handed a silk handkerchief, and sighed gently: "Honey, have you dreamed of your mother again? Unfortunately, I have never seen my mother, but I have already felt my mother's kindness." When she woke up in her dreams countless times, she saw her husband disappearing, and then heard the depressing voice in the inner room, which would cry until dawn.
Qin Mo lowered his head, sighed silently, and then gently grabbed his wife's hand because he felt ashamed of this wife. It has been 10 years since he gave birth to a son and a daughter for himself, but he thought about his original wife and children in his heart. This is actually a sin.
The wife gently pulled out her hand: "I'll cook a bowl of porridge for you. It's already dawn, and you still have to work hard on state affairs." Then she stood up, blew out the lights in the house, and quietly prepared to go to the kitchen to make a bowl of porridge for this husband who looks strong but feels poor.
Thinking of facing the mountain of bamboo slips, Qin Mo could only sigh helplessly.
King Hu of Lin, Hu Yong, is also among the best among the kings of all dynasties. The one who can be strong is King Hu of Lin, Hu Yong, and the one who will never become strong is the people of Lin Hu.
The reason for this is to make such a conclusion is because of the natural terrain of Lin Hu.
The Yellow River Hetao divides the vast territory of Linhu into two. Outside the Hetao, there are grasslands and deserts. The Linhu people growing there are barbaric and tenacious, brave and savage, and are born warriors.
But the Linhu people in Hetao have fertile land and better pastures, which has developed their complacent and docile character.
A country has two personalities, which is a paradox, but it is indeed so strange. This is caused by the terrain and climate.
Therefore, even though Qin Mo tried every means to unite them, let the militants become natural warriors, and he took them to destroy Qin himself, while the meeks worked with peace of mind and provided the warriors with a steady stream of war logistics. This was originally a perfect match, but it became a sharp contradiction. The contradiction was that militants were in the north, while the meeks isolated them from behind Qin.
The waiter carried a wooden support, which was piled up with mountains of bamboo slips, and gently put them down. The head waiter said softly: "Tianmu, the king said that after reviewing these, please ask the adults to have a good sleep. Then, at sunset, please ask the doctor to meet the king. Do not work hard."
Qin Mo looked at the bamboo slips that were obviously half less than usual: "I know the king's grace, but I'd better take the remaining half over, otherwise it will be even more difficult tomorrow."
The waiter quickly shook his hand: "That's really all, it's really only these." But his expression told Qin Mo that this was the lie that the king ordered.
Qin Mo sighed: "Even if he cannot realize his ambition to destroy Qin and take revenge, for this king, he must resist the encroachment of the powerful Qin and protect Lin Hu's fundamental land, Hetao."
At this time, the door hurried in and reported in a low voice: "Sir, Zhao State is false prime minister, and Zhao Xing, the king of the county, will pay a visit to Zhao Xing."
Qin Mo was stunned. He had never had any contact with Zhao State, and had many attacks in the past. Suddenly, Zhao State sent a heavyweight figure to see him. What is the reason?
But after thinking for a moment, he immediately reached out and said, "Change me, open the middle door, and I will greet you in person."
