From Andy Lau's "Ink Attack" to MoZi's Stop Chu Attack Song

I believe that many friends are impressed by Andy Lau's film "Ink Attack", which is about human nature in a chaotic world, ink Ge Li (Played by Andy Lau) is confident that he can save the world, but in the face of fear, different groups of people and corpses, life and death are no longer pawns on the sand table, he also began to panic, and finally all parties are powerless to save their lives, in the almost insurmountable ending, there is no victor, the ink man finally just walks with some orphans in the gaps of the nations, that is, history. Although the film reflects the preciousness of life, for a film that shows the mojia thought, "Ink Attack" does not make people identify with the Mojia thought from the film itself, even when Ge Li (Andy Lau) persuaded General Zhao Guo to retire from the army, it did not make people really understand the meaning of "both love and non-attack". Although the film performance is not perfect, in the real history, we can still feel the Mojia mystery of the founder of the Mo family, Mozi, who stopped Chu Chu and attacked the Song Dynasty.

During the Warring States period, the various princely states fought wars for many years, and the common people had to bear heavy military service and taxes, and they were miserable. In particular, the powerful countries invade weak and small countries at will, causing huge losses to the lives and property of weak countries. It was at this time that the Mo family advocates stepped forward to oppose these unjust wars.

It is said that the State of Chu wanted to attack the State of Song. The King of Chu asked Lu Ban, a famous craftsman at that time, to create a cloud ladder that could siege the city. This ladder is fixed to the car, can be pushed under the city wall, the soldiers can climb the high city wall by relying on the ladder, the siege is much easier, the king of Chu was very happy after seeing the ladder, and decided to use it to attack the Song Kingdom. The State of Chu was a large country in the south, while the State of Song was located in Henan and was weak, and if Chu attacked the Song, the Song would be in danger. At that time, Mozi, the founder of the Mo family, was lecturing in his hometown of Lushan County (present-day Xuancheng, Hubei Province), and when he learned the news, he was very anxious, so he asked his eldest disciple to lead 300 disciples to the Song Kingdom to help the Song Kingdom prepare for defense. He personally rushed to the State of Chu to persuade the King of Chu to stop attacking the Song. Mozi trekked all the way through the mountains and waters day and night, from Lushan County (present-day Xuancheng, Hubei Province) to the Chu state of Yingdu (present-day Jingzhou, Hubei) to find Luban. Lu Ban asked, "Sir, he came in such a hurry, did he have any advice?" Mozi said, "There is a man in the north who insults me, and I want to use your strength to kill him." Lu Ban was very unhappy after hearing this. Mozi said, "I am willing to pay thousands of dollars as a reward." Lu Ban said: "I am a righteous person, and I will never kill people for money." Hearing this, Mozi stood up and laughed and said, "I heard in the north that you are building a cloud ladder, and you will use it to attack the Song Kingdom." You are willing to help me kill a person, but you are willing to help the Chu state attack the Song kingdom and kill many people? According to what you just said, you are a person who insists on justice and is not willing to kill innocents indiscriminately. Now, you want to attack a country for no reason, I don't know how many people to kill, please ask, is this the justice you insist on? A series of questions Lu Ban was dumbfounded by the question, and finally had to say: "What the gentleman said is reasonable, but the King of Chu has already made a decision, it is not good to change!" Mozi asked, "Can you introduce me to the King of Chu?" Lu Ban agreed and accompanied Mozi to see the King of Chu.

Mozi met with the King of Chu and said, "Now there is a man here who abandons his own beautifully decorated car, but wants to steal the neighbor's broken car; abandons his gorgeous clothes but wants to steal the neighbor's coarse cloth and short clothes; abandons his own good food and good dishes, but wants to steal the neighbor's poor food." What kind of person is this? The King of Chu replied, "This must be someone who suffers from the disease of theft." Mozi said: "The land of the Chu Kingdom is five thousand miles in circumference; the land of the Song Kingdom is five hundred miles in circumference, which is like a beautifully decorated car compared with a broken car." The Chu kingdom has Yun Mengze, which has herds of rhinoceros elk, and countless fish, turtles, and crocodiles in the Yangtze River and Han Water; the Song Kingdom does not even have pheasants, rabbits, and small fish, which is like comparing the taste of the mountains and the sea with coarse tea and rice. The forests of the Chu kingdom were dense, with precious woods such as giant pines, catalpa trees, yellow stem trees, nan, and camphor; the Song kingdom did not even have excess wood, which was like gorgeous clothes compared to torn clothes. I think that sending troops to attack the Song Kingdom didn't he commit the same mistake as that person? By doing so, the great king can only provoke the shame and laughter of the people of the world, and such an unjust battle will certainly not have any good results. The King of Chu woke up like a dream and said in a loud voice, "Sir, you are right!" However, despite this, the King of Chu was still unwilling to stop attacking the Song Kingdom, and found an excuse to say: "Although it is not right to attack the Song Kingdom, Lu Ban has built me a ladder and has not yet been used." I still plan to try this advanced weapon, and I will definitely be able to capture the Song Kingdom. Mozi said, "With the ladder, you may not be able to win, right?" Mozi smiled and said, "Because this cloud ladder can't even deal with me, let alone a Song Kingdom?" If I don't believe it, I will use something instead of the equipment with LuBan, and compete on the spot! The King of Chu thought it was quite interesting and agreed to let them try it. Mozi untied the garment belt and used the garment belt as a city wall and a piece of wood as a defensive instrument. Lu Ban used clever siege tactics many times, and Mozi resisted him many times. In the end, Lu Ban's siege method was exhausted, and Mozi's defense measures were still unused. Lu Ban was ashamed and angry, suddenly stood up, and said angrily, "I know it is used against you."
