Faced with the current situation in the world, especially since Wei Prime Minister Gongsun Qi had already stated Wei's intention to send troops to attack Qin, Han Yue, the Prime Minister of Han, did not think hard for a long time.

"Since the Zhangshui Alliance twelve years ago, South Korea and Wei have been allies assisting each other in offense and defense."

"If Wei intends to send troops to attack Qin, then although our country, South Korea, is not as powerful as Wei, we are willing to send troops to help."

"Okay, South Korea is worthy of being our ally of Wei."

It was obvious that Han Yue's clear statement immediately won Gongsun Qi's admiration.

If we talk about Handan and his party, what Gongsun Qi felt was that with the growth of national power, the distance between Zhao and Wei had gradually drifted away;

So at this moment, Gongsun Qi, who was in Xinzheng City, felt that South Korea was still willing to follow Wei.

Although South Korea's strength is not as good as that of Wei, as one of the most powerful countries in the world, South Korea's choice is also extremely important.

The smile on Gongsun Qi's lips at this moment showed that he and even the Wei State behind him were satisfied with South Korea's choice.

"Since the founding of the country by the late Lord Wenhou, our country Wei has always put integrity first. Since South Korea can support our country Wei in this way, we country Wei cannot help but reciprocate."

"Before coming to Xinzheng, Your Majesty told me that if South Korea intends to expand its territory, Wei will definitely help."

Gongsun Qi's voice sounded faintly in the carriage, but it evoked the emotion in Han Yue's heart.

From the map, South Korea borders Qin to the west, Chu to the south, and Wei and Zhao from the same lineage to the east and north.

In such a situation, South Korea can really be called a place of four wars.

What makes the Korean monarchs and ministers even more helpless is that although they belong to the same place of the Four War as Wei, Korea's national strength cannot be compared with those of the above countries.

If there is no external help, if South Korea wants to expand its territory, it may only have to attack the Zhou Dynasty in the territory.

But the promise from Wei Prime Minister Gong Sun Qi immediately gave Han Prime Minister Han Yue new hope.

With a bit of expectation in his eyes, Han Yue asked Gongsun Qi: "Is this what Prime Minister Wei is serious about?"

"This is what my Lord said personally. If South Korea wants to expand its territory, we, the State of Wei, will definitely help us." Facing Han Yue's inquiry, Gongsun Qi replied solemnly.

…

"color!"

In Xinzheng City and the Han Palace, after listening to the narration of Prime Minister Han Yue, Han Hou Han Wu immediately cheered.

Although Han Hou Han Wu is still very young, he has a rough understanding of the current situation in the world.

Looking at the strength of all countries in the world, the overlord Wei State and the Chu State in the south are the first echelon. Compared with the above two countries, the strength of other princes is still far behind.

If it can get help from Wei and its own national strength, South Korea may not be unable to expand its territory.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Han Wu's eyes fell on Han Yue in front of him.

"Prime Minister, if our country, South Korea, really gets help from Wei, in which direction should we expand our territory?"

Han Yue had a solemn expression on his face, and as he slowly opened his mouth, he gave an answer that was somewhat unexpected by Han Wu.

"south."

"What!"

The moment Han Yue's voice fell, Han Wu's face immediately showed an expression of disbelief.

"Xiang Guo knows that south of our territory of South Korea is the territory of Chu State. Chu State is a powerful country that can compete with Wei State."

"We, South Korea, can definitely fight steadily and proceed step by step. How can we make an enemy of the powerful Chu State in the south?"

If Han Yue hadn't always shown his superb talents and the huge reputation he had, Han Wu might have had the idea of ​​​​changing his appearance at this moment.

In the eyes of Han Wu, Han Yue's actions just now were clearly pushing South Korea into the fire pit.

However, facing the scrutinizing gaze of Han Hou Han Wu, Han Yue's face was still full of calmness.

"I am reporting to you, it is not that I want to choose Chu, but the situation in the world has decreed that if we, Korea, want to expand our territory, we must go south."

"Your Majesty, you may wish to take a look around South Korea. To the north and east are the countries Wei and Zhao that are of the same lineage as our country, South Korea, and are allies of each other."

"Although the Qin State in the West does not have a close relationship with South Korea, it is a suitable target for attack. However, Wei State's plan to attack Qin is clearly preparing to include Qin State in its territory."

"The three roads of advancing eastward, advancing westward, and going north are not feasible at this moment. Our only choice in Korea is to go south to the Chu Kingdom."

Han Yue's in-depth analysis reduced most of Han Hou Han Wu's worries.

Seeing that the expression on Han Wu's face changed due to his words, Han Yue immediately took advantage of the victory and pursued it: "I am reporting this to you, your Majesty. I thought that only by going south to the Chu Kingdom can we, South Korea, gain the most generous benefits."

"Everyone in the world knows that Chu State is famous for its vast territory. If South Korea can defeat Chu State with the help of Wei State, then South Korea will be able to harvest a large amount of territory on the border between Han and Chu."

"This matter is really of great benefit to me, South Korea."

High risks must be accompanied by high returns, which Han Yue, as the Prime Minister of South Korea, also knows very well.

If South Korea can seize a large area of ​​land from Chu, then South Korea can quickly increase its national power.

Even if it can rely on its convenient strategic location to incorporate Chu's elite territory into its own territory, South Korea may not be able to become strong.

When he thought that in his own hands, South Korea would most likely increase its national power, Han Hou Han Wu felt a throb in his heart.

"What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true. I and South Korea will give full support to the army going south to Chu State. I hope that our national strength in South Korea will grow stronger."

After a dialogue between the monarch and his ministers, South Korea determined its next strategic direction.

It was also because of Gongsun Qi's promise from Wei Feng that Wei State placed a new opponent in front of Chu State, its future enemy.

In addition to Wei's intention to support South Korea's outward expansion, Han Yue also reported to Han Hou Han Wu that Wei's intention was to exchange the land west of Ru River for the Hangu Pass land in South Korea's hands.

If it were the case that South Korea was still interested in expanding in the direction of Qin, Han Hou Han Wu would naturally not agree to this land exchange proposal.

After all, everyone in the world knows the importance of Hangu Pass, which is a must-pass point between the pass and the Heluo land.

Once this place is firmly in hand, South Korea can advance to capture Guanzhong, and retreat to defend Heluo and defend its original territory.

However, with the shift in South Korea's strategic direction, the strategic value of Hangu Pass has been greatly reduced.

If the Hangu Pass land can be used to exchange the fertile land west of Ru River from the Wei State, it will lay a solid foundation for the future exploration of the Chu State.

Naturally, this is something that is enjoyable to do.

In the end, Han Hou Han Wu decided to send 40,000 troops to help Wei in exchange for Wei's future support for South Korea's management of Chu.

In addition, Wei and Han relocated again. South Korea obtained the fertile territory west of Ru River, while Wei obtained the logistical points for attacking Qin.
