14. Decision
Su Che was surprised by this.
"Senior guessed what I think?" he asked.
Fang Bin just nodded with a smile, "Why did he choose Yan State? After all..."
He didn't say it, but Su Che knew what he meant.
Liang State was destroyed by Yan Chang'an, and Su Dingyuan was also unclear about life and death. For the sake of reason, he should hate Yan State, which launched this war. Then, he should not recommend the Mo family to cooperate with Yan State, as this is undoubtedly helping the enemy.
"You have also said that if you put yourself in your shoes, I made a choice from the perspective of the Mo family. Later Zhou had the skill of casting "Xuan" armor, so the method of smelting of the Mo family was not as important as that of the Yan State. What they wanted more was the Mo family's mechanism. In this way, the military can be placed in the army to restrain the cavalry of the Northern Yan."
Su Che said: "When today, when the Later Zhou and Yan Kingdom compete, the national strength of the two countries is equally matched, but the Northern Yan Wolf Cavalry cannot be avoided. I heard from my father that my grandfather attacked Hou Zhou and destroyed the cavalry of Hou Zhou in one fell swoop.
Because generals and reserve officers who knew cavalry training died in the war, they were not in charge. Even today, the cavalry of the Later Zhou Dynasty had not recovered their vitality, but the navy became the best in the world.
Therefore, if the two countries are fighting, even if Chen Guanli's Black Wind Army is not able to fight against the Northern Yan Wolf Cavalry.
Yan State has lost its general Yan Kang, and the Yan family in the court has lost its backbone. Even with Yan Chang'an, it has many constraints due to age. If the Mohist family cooperated with the Later Zhou Dynasty, even if the mechanism can only slightly restrain the cavalry and cooperate with the Later Zhou Navy, it will be like a tiger with wings."
Fang Bian smiled and said, "Isn't this good?"
"This is very good. The Mohist school can be valued in a short period of time and be remarkable for a while." Su Che said.
Fang Bien took over the conversation, "Once the war is over, the powerful court will not continue to let the Mo family go, because there will be too many people who want to get close to the Mo family after victory, and the court will not tolerate this."
Su Che nodded, "That's true."
"But cooperation with Yan State seems to be no different." Fang Dun said: "If Yan State obtains the complete smelting method of Xuanbing Iron and casts out the "Xuan" armor, wouldn't the Northern Yan Wolf Cavalry even go straight in?"
Su Che said: "The State of Yan relies on cavalry. As far as I know, although the "Xuan" armor is amazingly defended, it looks bulky. If the cavalry is wearing it, and with guns, spears, swords and crossbows, even if people can bear it, the war horses cannot carry the load and run for a long distance.
So either improve your skills or only wear half armor. But no matter which one is, it requires the participation of the Mohist school, especially the former, which is the most time-consuming.
Later Zhou and Yan State faced each other north and south for many years. Even though they were separated by Liang State in the past, they never stopped competing. Even if Yan State overcomes the difficulty of wearing armor, they may not be able to win, because in addition to the "Xuan" armor, there were also navy soldiers."
Fang Duo shook his head and said, "It can be delayed for a while, but not for a lifetime. There must be a war between the two countries. How many years can the peace won by this alone be achieved?"
"That's why we have to choose Yan State." Su Che said: "This way we have time. Whether it is the development of the Mo family, the final separation, or even the people of the world, it takes time. Of course, it is best not to fight the war."
Fang Bian looked at him for a long time and sighed.
"You are exactly the same as your father," he said.
Su Che lowered his eyes and chuckled, "It is precisely because of his father that I am now."
Fang Ban nodded, "If he could hear these words you today, he would definitely be relieved."
Su Che smiled in his heart. He thought of the Martial Arts Examination. At that time, he was in the Imperial Garden Art Examination. He knew that his father would always be proud of himself. And he would definitely do it.
"Then I should ask others whether I agree to cooperate with Yan State." Fang Dun said.
Since Zhou and Yan State were all in the Mo family, I believe that someone in the Mo family must have had contact with them, so some people secretly chose Later Zhou and some people secretly chose Yan State.
What he has to do now is to unify his opinions. As for those that are contrary, they either follow or find another way out. It is just that it is difficult to make this decision, especially when it really needs to let go.
"Will you want to stay in the Mo family all the time?" Fang Duan asked.
After hearing this, Su Che couldn't help but look directly at him.
Previously, including before today's conversation, he would have said decisively, "No". But now, or his true thoughts are actually that he himself doesn't know whether it will be possible.
It’s not that I think the Mo family needs it. In fact, unless it is a great practice for a thousand years, individuals can do not have much, especially an outsider. Su Che is just not sure when his strange injuries will recover.
He knew the magic of the nameless breathing method and could feel the change between breathing, but he also knew that this was not something that could be accomplished overnight, and he also needed time.
So before that, what he needed most was a quiet place.
"Actually, I hope you will stay in the Mo family." Fang Duan said: "You are very outstanding. Even before that, I was afraid that they would cause trouble because of your identity and want you to leave the city of the government. But this does not prevent me from now on, wanting you to stay or even become a member of the Mo family."
At this time, what Su Che saw from Fang Duan's eyes was sincerity.
"Why?" he asked.
He didn't think it was what he said just now, because the other party understood what was in the words. In the final analysis, all the other party wanted was to say what he thought of in his heart and then firmly up to his choice.
It has nothing to do with whom the person who said this today, and Fang Bi will make a decision.
"You may think that it's not important for me to make a decision today." Fang Bian could see what he was thinking from Su Che's expression, "But it is indeed because of you that I did this."
Su Che was a little confused.
"The people from Hou Zhou stopped you and mentioned me." Fang Bian said directly.
Su Che thought about it and then realized that there were already people from the Later Zhou Dynasty within the Memorial City or the Mo family. I guess the Yan State was the same for this.
"What if I choose Yan State, what if the Later Zhou Dynasty takes revenge?" Su Che asked.
"They will definitely do it, but since they have to make a choice, just as soon as possible." Fang Bian said: "I believe that the Yan State will not let it go."
Su Che knew that if things really developed like this, then the undercurrent that had been waiting for in the city of the government would probably become more and more turbulent, and perhaps it would completely explode.
And he was in this vortex at this time.
"Okay, you should go back too." Fang Bian smiled as relieved, and then said, "After so long, your two friends should be anxious."
Upon hearing this, Su Che stood up and said goodbye with his fists.
