In 409 BC, Wei Wenhou Weisi appointed Wu Qi, a guard general, to be fully responsible for Wei's strategy for Qin's land west of Hexi.

Wu Qi lived up to Wei Wenhou's trust in him and took all the land west of Qin from Qin in just two years.

In order to deal with the defense line built by the Qin State along the Luoshui River, Wei Wenhou specially established Xihe County in Hexi.

Recommended by Zhai Huang, an important minister under Wei Wenhou, Wu Qi, who made great contributions in the Battle of Hexi, eventually became the first governor of Xihe County in Wei State.

After Wu Qi arrived in Hexi, he vigorously promoted enlightenment and won the hearts of the people in Hexi.

On the other hand, they trained their soldiers diligently, built cities and walls, and actively responded to the threat of Qin in the west.

As a "military sage" recognized by later generations, Wu Qi not only had great attainments in military strategy, but his talent in military training was even more astonishing.

Among the Wei soldiers stationed in Hexi, Wu Qi selected the best with extremely high standards.

After a series of rigorous and effective training, heavy and sophisticated armor, and generous rewards, the sharpest blade in Wu Qi's hand was forged.

This is the world-famous strong soldier, Wei Wuzu.

When the sharp blade of Wei Wuzu was unsheathed for the first time, it showed its unrivaled power to the world.

In 389 BC, Qin Huigong Ying Ren led the entire Qin army to attack the important town of Yin and Jin in Hexi in order to regain the land in Hexi.

At this time, the whole state of Wei was in panic. Even Wei Wuhou, Wei Jing, thought that Wei might not be able to withstand Qin's attack.

When all the countries in the world were watching how Qin could avenge its previous humiliation, Wu Qi, as the governor of Xihe County, stood up.

He used 50,000 Wei soldiers as the spearhead, supplemented by 500 chariots and 3,000 cavalry, completing a classic battle in which a small number defeated a large number.

In the battle between Yin and Jin, hundreds of thousands of Qin soldiers suffered a disastrous defeat. From then on, Qin did not move eastward for more than 20 years.

As soon as Wei Wuzu's sharp sword was unsheathed, it showed its edge. Unfortunately, not many people can use it.

Since Wu Qi was jealous of Wei Wuhou and fled to Chu, Wei Wu's soldiers were still the same elite troops, but their achievements were very few.

It was not until today that Wei Hou Wei Feng succeeded to the throne, and the Wei State continued to use troops against powerful surrounding enemies such as Han, Zhao, and Qin. Under the command of good generals such as Gongshu Cuo and Pang Juan, the Wei soldiers finally showed their edge.

As he raised the wine cup in his hand and lowered it, after listening to Gongsun Yang's detailed introduction to the soldiers of Wei, Shen Buhui's curiosity was aroused.

"In the past, Brother Yang once said that although Wei's soldiers were powerful in combat, they could not last long. Now that Brother Yang is in the high position of Situ, do you still agree with what he said back then?"

Gongsun Yang listened to Shen Buhai's inquiry and gently put down the wine jue he raised in his hand, with a faint smile on his face.

"As for the evaluation back then, I have a somewhat different view today."

Gongsun Yang stood up in front of Shen Buhai and walked step by step to the window after a few cases.

Watching the people coming and going on the street outside the window, the smile on Gongsun Yang's face gradually disappeared, and a long silence appeared between the two.

After an unknown amount of time passed, Gongsun Yang turned around and looked back at Shen Buhai. An extremely sharp light burst out from his eyes.

"Brother, I think the combat power of Wei soldiers at this moment is even worse than what I estimated back then."

"When it comes to strengthening the army today, the first thing that comes to mind is the soldiers of the Wei army. If the soldiers of the Wei army are selected to be elite, the first thing that comes to mind is the soldiers of Wei Wu."

"To this day, the soldiers of Wei have become a symbol of the strong army of Wei State, but are the soldiers of Wei really that powerful?"

The question Gongsun Yang asked made Shen Buhai fall into silence immediately after a few cases.

There is no doubt about the strength of Wei's soldiers, because they are almost an elite force supported by the whole country of Wei.

Apart from his excellent armor, generous treatment, and only based on his current actual combat power, is Wei Wushu really that invincible?

The answer to this question is somewhat guessed by Gongsun Yang, Shen Buhai and even a large number of people in Wei State.

Let’s not talk about those far away, but let’s talk about the elites of the Hexi and Qin Dong armies who went to Yiqu this time. Their performance on the battlefield may not be much worse than that of the Wei soldiers.

After being silent for a long time, Shen Buhu looked at Gongsun Yang in front of him with a complicated expression, "According to Brother Yang's wishes, should the elite Wei Wuzu be abolished?"

"Of course not. Wei Wuzu should be the sharpest long sword in the hands of our country Wei. However, after decades of formation, Wei Wuzu has lost its original edge."

Something seemed to appear in front of his eyes, something seemed to come to his mind, and Gongsun Yang's face gradually became dignified.

"The elites of the past have faded with age, and the fighting spirit of the past has faded with the generous treatment. The long sword of Wei Wuzu is now inevitably stained with rust."

Gongsun Yang's voice lingered between the two for a long time, and a sigh directed at Wei Wuzu lingered between them.

Not long after this conversation took place, a memorial appeared in the hands of Wei Marquis Wei Feng.

Looking at the seal characters of Gongsun Yang and Shen Buha written on the memorial, a solemn expression also appeared on Wei Feng's face.

As Gongsun Yang said, Wei Wuzu is indeed the sharpest long sword in the hands of Wei State.

After experiencing the disastrous defeats in the battles of Guiling and Maling, and losing the sharpest long sword, Wei Feng could clearly feel the gradual decline of the Wei state.

Now, from the memorials of Gongsun Yang and Shen Buhai, we have seen the shortcomings of Wei Wu's soldiers. How could Wei Feng not pay attention to them?

However, the solemn expression did not remain on Wei Feng's face for too long, and soon his eyes gradually returned to calm.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Since the sword is already rusty, why not recast it and let the sharpest sword in the hands of Wei regain its own edge.

At least today's Wei State is still the most powerful country in the world, and at least there is still plenty of time left for Wei State to recast this sharp sword.

He gently rolled up the memorial and put it aside solemnly with both hands. Wei Feng slowly raised his head.

"Here comes someone."

"Your Majesty."

As soon as Wei Feng's voice fell, the eunuch order serving at the side had already appeared in front of him.

"I have given my order to summon Situ Gongsun Yang, the chief minister Shen Buhai, and Sima Sun Boling to come to the palace tomorrow to see you."

"Oh, by the way, tomorrow the venue for the three people's meeting will be arranged at the palace campus."

"Follow orders."

…

The next day, three carriages stopped in front of the palace gate of Wei State Palace in Anyi. Gongsun Yang, Shen Buhe and Sun Boling finally stood together.

"Don't harm brother, Brother Yang."

Sun Boling looked at the familiar figure appearing in front of him and hurriedly greeted them and came to their side.

His eyes lightly swept around, and seeing that there was no one else here, Sun Boling asked curiously: "Brother Buhao, Brother Yang, I wonder if you two know what happened when your Majesty summoned three of us to the palace today?"

What's the matter?"

At this moment, Sun Boling was confused. Gongsun Yang and Shen Buhu looked at each other, and a knowing smile appeared on their faces at the same time.

If they guessed correctly, the reason why Wei Feng summoned them here today was probably because of the memorial he submitted yesterday.

Before Gongsun Yang could wait for Shen Buhe to explain to Sun Bolingduo, the eunuch ordered a dozen people to come to the three of them.

"I've seen Situ and Sima, please go to the doctor."

With obvious humility, he bowed to the three people in front of him, and the eunuch took a step back slightly, making an invitation gesture.

"Your Majesty is already waiting for three of you at the palace grounds. Please come with me, three of you."

Under the leadership of the eunuch, Gongsun Yang and the others passed through the many palaces in front of them and arrived at the school grounds in the palace.

What made Gongsun Yang and the others somewhat unexpected was that the person who appeared in front of them a moment later was not Wei Feng who had been on the throne in the past.

At this moment, Wei Feng had already put on sophisticated armor, and the most eye-catching thing was that he was holding a crossbow in his hand.

The powerful crossbow string, the exquisitely shaped launching mechanism, and the crossbow arrows shining with cold light were aimed straight at the target a hundred steps ahead.

As Wei Feng's fingers pulled the crossbow's hanging knife, the powerful crossbow string vibrated for a while, and then the crossbow arrow shot straight out under the impetus of huge force.

The sharp crossbow arrow cut through a distance of a hundred steps, and a dull sound immediately sounded. The next moment, the target a hundred steps away was deeply submerged.

"color!"

Wei Feng's performance immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the audience, and the cheers couldn't help but burst out.

Looking in the direction from which the sound came, the eunuch Ling and Gongsun Yang, who were standing behind him, appeared in Wei Feng's field of vision.

"Your Majesty, Situ, Sima, and the senior officials have arrived."

"I know, you can go down first."

By the time the eunuch ordered to accept Wei Feng's order and retreat, Gongsun Yang and his three men had already arrived in front of Wei Feng.

"I will pay my respects to you, Your Majesty."

"The three nobles please get up quickly."

He gently helped the three of them with his right hand to get up. Wei Feng immediately showed a kind smile on his face, "What do you think of my shooting skills?"

"It's absolutely superb."

Among the three, Shen Buhe was the first to respond, and after he finished speaking, his eyes were attracted by the crossbow in Wei Feng's hand.

After looking at it for several times, Shen Buhe immediately said with some speculation: "Your Majesty knows that I once served as a minor official in Korea, and I have also heard about the power of Korean crossbows. Could it be that..."

After Wei Feng listened to Shen Buhai's words, the smile on his face became brighter.

"My doctor's guess is right. This crossbow is indeed from South Korea."

"Three noble families..."

Looking across the faces of the three people in front of him, Wei Feng changed the subject and said, "If this powerful crossbow can be used by our Wei State, will our Wei army's combat power be much stronger?"
