The discussion on the new mourning of the King of Qin was settled, and this court meeting came to an end.

If anyone's performance in this court meeting was the most amazing, it would probably be the senior doctor Shen Buhai.

When everyone in the court was rejoicing at the passing of Qin Gong Ying Shixi, Shen Buhe took the initiative to stand up.

He not only analyzed the shortcomings of Wei's sending troops to attack Qin from the perspectives of Wei and Qin, but also completely dispelled the intention to attack Qin in the Wei court.

He even proposed to Wei Marquis Wei Feng to send an envoy to Qin, which would not only show Wei's hegemony, but also make Qin's wariness less wary of Wei.

It can be said that Shen Buyu's words in the court made all the courtiers refresh their understanding of him again.

On top of that reputation for strict enforcement of the law, there is also the wonderful feature of having the courage to speak out and being well-founded.

And just after the court meeting ended, Shen Buhe, who had accepted the order from the Marquis of Wei, was about to return to his mansion and make preparations for his mission to Qin, when a palace official stopped him directly.

Afterwards, Shen Buhe, who was a little doubtful, followed the palace man's footsteps to the front of a main hall.

"Doctor, please."

"It's time to work."

When he stepped into the main hall in front of him, the first thing that caught Shen Bushi's eyes was a series of familiar faces.

Prime Minister Gongsun Qi, imperial censor Wang Cuo, general Pang Juan...

Without exception, these are all important figures in the Wei court. They gathered in this hall after the court meeting, and there must be important matters to discuss.

That is to say, when Shen Buhe was thinking in his mind, a call from Prime Minister Gongsun Qi came to his ears.

"Come on, doctor, come to my side."

"Follow orders."

Facing Shangguan Gongsun Qi's order, Shen Buhai suddenly felt a little solemn in his heart, but he quickly came up behind him.

He stood firm in his own place and calmed his mind slightly. Then Shen Buhai carefully continued to look at the situation around him.

As his eyes continued to shift around, a sand table in front of him came directly into Shen Buhai's eyes.

After carefully observing the sand table, Shen Buhe could already see from the iconic river, the Wei River, where the Xihe River was currently occupied by the Wei State.

To the west of Hexi is Qindong County, which was newly acquired by Wei State. Qindong then crosses the river to the west and becomes the territory of Qin State.

Could it be that Wei is preparing to take action against Qin?

The moment this thought appeared in his mind, Shen Buyai dismissed it directly.

Judging from his performance over the years, the current Wei Hou Wei Feng is definitely not a person who insists on having his own way, but a wise master who can listen to opinions.

Through the words he just said in the court, Shen Buhai understood that Wei Feng already understood the shortcomings of Wei's attack on Qin at this time.

Since it was a thankless task, Wei Feng had no reason to do it.

If it's not for the Qin State, why are so many important ministers summoned here today?

His eyes slowly moved from the west back to the Xihe River at the angle between the Wei River and the river. This time, Shen Buhai moved his eyes to the north.

"Could it be..."

Just as a bright light appeared in Shen Buhai's eyes, and mutterings to himself followed, a loud trumpet sounded from outside the hall.

"Your Majesty has arrived..."

The voice interrupted Shen Buhe's thoughts. When he looked at the door of the palace, he saw Wei Feng, who had already changed his robes, slowly walking into the palace.

Under the gaze of all the officials present, Wei Feng came to his seat and stood still.

"My lord, please pay homage to your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, please excuse me."

After another exchange of greetings between the monarch and his ministers, Wei Feng looked at the important ministers in front with a somewhat solemn expression.

"All the ministers are important ministers of our Wei State. We have summoned all your ministers here today for a major event of our Wei State."

"I have stated in advance that this matter is of great importance. I do not want to hear the slightest leakage after today. I also ask you to keep it a secret as much as possible."

"If I accidentally hear something later..."

At the end of the conversation, Wei Feng's voice became quieter and quieter, and in the end, no words could be heard at all.

Although Wei Feng did not continue his words, this did not prevent those words from arousing the vigilance in the hearts of all the important officials present.

What were the consequences after Wei Feng heard the news? I'm afraid not many people want to know the answer to this question.

His thoughts flowed here, and after making eye contact with colleagues who were familiar with him in daily life, a group of important officials immediately bowed to Wei Feng.

"I respectfully obey your Majesty's orders."

There was a sound in his ears. Wei Feng looked at a group of important ministers and nodded slightly, then his eyes turned to the Prime Minister Gongsun Qi on the side.

After receiving the order from the Marquis of Wei, Gongsun Qi directly picked up a wooden stick and stood in front of everyone without making any unnecessary movements.

"Everyone, what we are discussing today actually had preliminary plans five years ago."

"In the past five years, our Wei army, Hexi, Qindong and Shangjun have been working secretly. Now all preparations are basically completed."

After briefly describing the origin of what was discussed today, Gongsun Qi quickly swung the wooden stick in his hand and landed directly on a certain spot on the sand table in front of him.

To the west of Shangjun and to the north of Qindong, the place pointed by the wooden stick in Gongsun Qi's hand was clearly the location of the Yiqu and other tribes entrenched in the north of Qin.

Although he knew in his heart that the opportunity of the death of the new king of the Qin State, the Wei State would never miss it in vain, and there would definitely be some action;

But when Gongsun Qi pointed the finger at Yiqu, everyone still showed an unexpected surprise on their faces.

Looking at the important ministers in front of him, Gongsun Qi looked at the surprised expressions on most of their faces, but a smile appeared on Gongsun Qi's face.

But that smile soon disappeared, replaced by the calmness and sharpness that an important minister should possess.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "You don't have to be surprised, this time the Wei State is going to send troops to attack Yiqu."

"Everyone, please see, the land of Yiqu reaches Diaoyin in the east and the land of Xirong in the west. It has a long border with the Qin State."

"Since the Xia and Shang Dynasties, Yiqu has been living in the north of Guanzhong..."

Next, as the wooden stick in Gongsun Qi's hand continued to be waved in the vast area west of Shangjun and north of the Qin State, everything about Yiqu began to be revealed in front of the important officials of the Wei State present.

From the origin of Yiqu to the northward march of the Yiqu tribe, from getting along well with the Zhou family to several rounds of confrontations with Qin...

Gradually, the mysterious veil shrouding the Yiqu tribe was slowly lifted, and the courtiers present also understood why the Wei State wanted to attack Yiqu this time.

If the Wei State can take advantage of the new death of the Qin State monarch and have no time to consider external opportunities, launch a large army to destroy the Yiqu tribe with a long history, then the vast land to the north of the Qin State will be directly included in the territory of the Wei State.

In this way, the Wei State could not only eliminate the possible threat of Yiqu to Shangjun, but also suppress the Qin State from the north, east, and west.

When all the assumptions really come true, and when the land of Yiqu becomes the territory of Wei, Wei's original advantage over Qin will become even greater.

As for the next step, it is to turn this advantage into real gains until the final victory over Qin is completed...

Just when a group of important ministers of the Wei State understood the huge strategic value contained in Yi Canal and imagined the benefits that the Wei State might obtain in the future, Wei Feng once again came in front of everyone.

"My lords, I believe that you all know the target of the Wei Kingdom's attack this time. I wonder what you think of this matter?"

Facing the question raised by Wei Feng at this moment, all the important ministers looked at each other and saw their respective attitudes in each other's eyes.

Everyone has just understood the value contained in the land of Yiqu. Taking it is undoubtedly a good thing for Wei. What reason do they have to oppose Wei's sending troops this time?

Furthermore, from the words of Prime Minister Gongsun Qigang, everyone also understood that this matter had been secretly planned for five years.

This shows that Wei Feng, the monarch of the Wei State, supports this matter. With Wei Feng's authority that no one can shake in the Wei court, what confidence do they have to raise objections?

After asking himself, Wang Cuo, the imperial censor who was standing in front of the ministers, was the first to stand up and said, "I would like to inform you, Your Majesty, I believe that the land of Yiqu is very important to the future strategy of Wei State. This time it must be done."

Seize the opportunity to seize it."

"Your Majesty, I think what the imperial censor said is reasonable."

"Your Majesty, I second your proposal."

…

Soon after Wang Cuo took the lead in expressing his attitude, all the important ministers of the Wei State in the entire hall quickly reached a consensus, that is, the Wei State must take advantage of this opportunity to seize the land of Yiqu.

"Since all the ministers agree, then..."

With a slight nod, Wei Feng looked at the young and capable figure among the important ministers, "Where is General Pang Juan?"

Almost as soon as Wei Feng finished speaking, Pang Juan responded with a salute, "The general will be here."

"Come, let me tell you about our Wei army's marching strategy for this big battle."

"Follow orders."

After accepting Wei Feng's order, Pang Juan strode to the side of Prime Minister Gongsun Qi.

After taking the wooden stick from the opponent's hand and nodding slightly, Pang Juan's tall and straight figure caught the eyes of all the important ministers.

"Everyone..."

After Gongsun Qi handed over the stage to Pang Juan, he slowly returned to where he was just now and began to listen to the battle strategy that he participated in planning.

In this battle strategy jointly formulated by Gongsun Qi, Sun Boling, Pang Juan and others, the Wei State sent a total of 110,000 troops to attack Yiqu.

This 110,000-strong army is composed of two forces. One is the Hexi camp stationed in Xihe, which has been expanded to 60,000 people, and the other is the Hexi camp stationed in Qindong, which has been expanded to 50,000 people.
