Zou Ji's words made Qi Gong Tian Yinqi realize the slightly subtle relationship between the three Jins.

As I said before, the current situation among the three Jins depends on the strong national power of the Wei State and the sufficient benefits.

It is precisely because Wei State relied on its strong national power to defeat South Korea and Zhao State on the battlefield thirteen years ago that these two countries willingly stood behind Wei State.

In the last war between princes, although Wei State gained huge benefits from Qin State, Han and Zhao also gained considerable gains from Qi State.

This kind of harvest made Han and Zhao still willing to follow Wei and seek greater interests in the name of the Three Jins.

However, the situation of this war was obviously very different from the last time.

On the surface, Wei State organized a large army to attack Qi State, but secretly it mobilized heavy troops towards Qin State.

While most of the princes in the world still thought that Wei's goal was Qi, the battle that broke out by the Jing River caught them by surprise.

The battle between Wei and Qin can almost be said to have ended with Wei's complete victory.

Except for Longxi, the hometown of the Qin State, and Nanzheng, the land captured by the Shu State, the original Qin State territory was almost completely included in the territory of the Wei State.

In this battle, the Wei State did gain enough profits, but the balance between the three Jin Dynasties also had a vague trend of instability.

Faced with the fact that Wei had almost captured most of Qin's territory, how could the other two states among the Three Jins not be dissatisfied secretly even if they didn't say anything on the surface?

This situation became more and more uncontrollable because the Zhao army captured Gaotang and then won consecutive battles on the battlefield of Qi.

If the strength is insufficient, then Zhao State's dissatisfaction with Wei State is just dissatisfaction; but if it has sufficient strength, then Zhao State's dissatisfaction will be transformed into real action.

Just like decades ago, Zhao State will challenge Wei State for its position as the leader of the three Jin Dynasties.

As the leader of the Three Jins, how could Wei, the leader of the Three Jin Dynasties, sit back and watch Zhao have the strength to challenge itself?

This is why Zou Ji, knowing that Wei and Qi were in a hostile situation, still suggested that Tian Yinqi seek peace from Wei.

Understanding what Zou Ji meant, Tian Yinqi's thoughts couldn't help but flow.

After a while, looking at the close minister who had been following him, Tian Yinqi asked with some temptation: "Military advisor, will our country of Qi have good relations with the country of Wei in the future?"

When Zou Ji heard Tian Yinqi ask this, he knew that Tian Yinqi had agreed to his suggestion and had even set his sights on what would happen after the war.

After thinking about it again and again, Zou Ji gently shook his head as he met Tian Yinqi's gaze.

"Why?" Seeing Zou Ji acting like this, Tian Yinqi couldn't help but ask.

In fact, it is not that Qi has never done anything to make good friends with Wei.

During the reign of Marquis Wen of Wei, the Tian family, which was not yet a duke of Qi at that time, maintained a harmonious relationship with Wei.

If the State of Wei had not presented a memorial to the Emperor of Zhou, the Tian family would have been delayed a little longer if they wanted to replace the Jiang family as the real master of the State of Qi.

It was not until Qi's national strength gradually recovered that Qi, who aspired to the world, gradually drifted away from Wei.

Therefore, there was indeed a friendship between Qi and Wei in the past, and Qi did not mind picking up this friendship again for Qi Guotian.

But what Tian Yinqi didn't expect was that Zou Ji gave him a negative answer.

In response to Tian Yinqi's question, Zou Ji directly stated the reason, "Because the current Wei State is too strong."

"Is Wei State too powerful?"

"Exactly."

Zou Ji's face was serious, his eyes full of solemnity, "Since the current Wei Hou succeeded to the throne, he has successively defeated Han, Zhao, Qin and other powerful countries externally, and carried out drastic changes internally. The strength of Wei has surpassed that of Wei Wenhou.

.”

"After this battle against Qin, Wei State has captured most of Qin State. It is conceivable that Wei State's national power will become stronger."

"It can be said that when it comes to national strength, today's Wei State is by no means weaker than the former Jin State."

Just after listening to Zou Ji's words, Tian Yinqi couldn't help but feel a little solemn in his heart.

Tian Yinqi knew how powerful the Jin State was back then through the ancient books preserved in the palace.

It was a country that suppressed Qi in the east, conquered Qin in the west, resisted Rong and Di in the north, and fought against Chu in the south. It was a country that had dominated the world for more than a hundred years. It was a powerful country that could still overwhelm the world despite internal melee.

.

It can be said that if the Jin Kingdom had not been divided, there would not have been much suspense about who would win.

The Wei State, which now controls Guanzhong and most of the Central Plains, may not be as rich as the Jin State in terms of deep foundation, but in terms of paper strength, it is probably not as generous as the Jin State.

Strength, especially strong strength, will always make people feel awe from deep inside.

A young tiger may be petted because of its cuteness, but how many people will dare to get close to this tiger when it becomes an adult?

Tigers may not have a craving for humans, but people are full of fear of tigers. What's more, does this tiger in Wei State, which shows its fangs, really not have a craving for humans?

The strength of Wei State prevented Qi State from sincerely making good friends with him. On the contrary, in order to guard against his threats, Qi State had to choose to stand on the opposite side of him.

After pondering for a moment, Tian Yinqi asked Zou Ji softly: "Commander, after this battle is over, should I send another envoy to Yingdu to restore the good relationship between Chu and Qi?"

Not only was Zou Ji not at all uncomfortable with Tian Yinqi's rapid transformation, but he also had an optimistic look on his face.

"Your Majesty is wise."

…

After completing this long journey from western Guanzhong to Hedong Plain, Wei Feng finally returned to the capital Anyi.

As the war between Wei and Qin came to an end, Wei's strategic focus began to shift to the east, and the army and the accompanying grain, grass and baggage began to be mobilized from Guanzhong to the front line.

That is to say, when the army was in full swing and everyone in the court continued to be busy with the upcoming battle, a carriage slowly drove into Anyi, the capital of Wei State.

Sitting on the slowly moving carriage, Zou Ji gently opened the side curtains of the carriage and looked outside the carriage along with the light coming in.

As a native of Linzi, Zou Ji is used to seeing the bustling streets and the crowded streets.

But compared to Linzi due to its prosperous business, Zou Ji saw a touch more confidence on the faces of people outside the car.

It is a confidence in a bright future, and it is also a confidence belonging to the people of the most powerful country in the world.

After looking at it for a long time, Zou Ji slowly put down the side curtain in his hand and said secretly, "This Wei State is indeed unique."
