When it comes to gangsters, I think everyone is not impressed. In the eyes of the vast majority of people, gang members are unlearned people, wandering the streets all day, killing people and setting fires, and doing no evil. In fact, today's gangsters are indeed in this state. But China's earliest gangsters, at the beginning of their founding, were not this purpose. Their leader is also familiar to everyone, that is, the famous Mozi. Some people may feel strange, mozi is not a philosopher, how can he be a gangster boss? Are you mistaken? Here Xiaobian can say to everyone with certainty: "There is no mistake!" unbelief? Let's move on.
Mo Zishang was a descendant of the Yin Shang royal family, Muyi, and once served as the Grand Sima of the Duke of Song. Later, muyi's descendants were demoted to commoners for making mistakes and changed to mo surname. When he arrived at Mozi, there was no trace of nobility on his body, and when he was a child, he was a shepherd boy and a carpenter. However, after all, his ancestors had been aristocrats, so Mozi also received cultural education. Mozi first studied Confucianism, but later felt that Confucianism's attitude towards the Emperor of Heaven, ghosts and gods, and fate was too hypocritical, and the long-term funeral and extravagant liturgy were not grounded, so he abandoned Confucianism and created his own "Mojia Theory".
Because Mozi was born a commoner, he came into contact with many low-level people, and he gathered these people under his own door and established a group with strict organizational discipline, the Mo family. The supreme leader of the Mo family is the "Matrix" (Giant Son), and the members are called "Ink People", which are passed down from generation to generation. All inkers must obey the command of the giant, obey the leader of the giant, and even need to "go to the soup and the fire, and die without heeling." Mozi is the first "giant" of the Mo family, and the inkers are also called "short clothes gangs" because most of them wear short clothes shoes.
The Shorts come from the bottom of society and take pleasure in suffering. Under the leadership of Mozi, they smelled the chicken dancing and engaged in martial arts training. They advocate "both love and non-aggression", and once the weak are violated, they will unite to help the weak fight back the strong enemy. Like the Rangers recorded in the Chronicles of the Rangers, although their actions may not be righteous, they speak for people and are extremely trustworthy. This is the source of the "lecture gas" of the gangsters in later generations.
However, the Mo family is extremely disciplined, and the law of the Mo people stipulates: "Those who kill people die, and those who hurt people are punished." One of the "giant sons" of the Mo family, his son killed people, according to the laws of the Qin State, should have been beheaded. However, King Hui of Qin was poor and old, and he was an only son, so he ordered not to be killed. However, he adhered to the law of the ink and insisted on executing his son. It is precisely because of this that the combat effectiveness of the inker is very high.
Of course, it would take a huge fee to feed these thousands of disciples. But Mozi did not extend his hand to ordinary people, but let his men become skilled craftsmen. They make money by selling furniture, farm tools, siege equipment, and institutions. Therefore, the Mo family is also very clever in terms of organ techniques, and is the main competitor with the Gongru family of the Lu Kingdom. When Lu Ban built a siege tool for the King of Chu, the "Cloud Ladder", the King of Chu planned to use the Cloud Ladder to attack the Song. When Mozi heard this, he immediately led his disciples to the Chu state and forcefully stopped the Chu king from cutting down the Song Dynasty. Unfortunately, after Mozi's death, the Mo family was divided into three, and during the Qin and Han dynasties, it was completely declined. The later gangsters completely deviated from the original intention of Mozi when he was founded.
