With well-founded words and a smile that always appears, Yiping is a smooth businessman.

Thinking of the role played by the wealthy Yi family in digging the chasm over the past two years, Wei Feng showed a somewhat interested smile on his face.

Gently taking the chopsticks placed aside, he picked up a piece of mutton and put it into his mouth. Wei Feng's eyes immediately lit up.

"As expected of lamb from the North, it is indeed plump."

After hearing Wei Feng's praise, Yiping, as the host, did not come forward to talk, but just stood aside silently with a smile on his face.

After finishing the whole piece of mutton, Wei Feng turned his eyes to Yiping and said, "I ate such a plump piece of mutton here today. I also have a good thing to tell the head of the Yi family."

Wei Feng's words immediately shocked Yiping on the side.

Although there is no proverb at this time that showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing, but as a businessman, Yiping knows that while gaining benefits, he must also pay a corresponding price.

With a bit of hesitation on his face, Yiping asked softly: "I wonder what the benefits are that the king mentioned?"

Seeing the vigilance in Yi Ping's heart, Wei Feng quickly waved his hand gently to comfort him: "The head of the Yi family doesn't have to be like this."

"I heard that the Yi family's businesses are spread all over the world, including the Zhongshan Kingdom between Yan and Zhao. I intend to use the power of the Yi family..."

Wei Feng did not continue what he said next, but Yiping already understood what he meant.

From the bottom of his heart, Yiping wanted to move closer to Wei.

Although the Yi family's trade network spreads all over the world and seems to make a lot of money, only their own family members know the pain involved.

Wei is the place where the Yi family started, and it is also the most powerful country in the world today.

If there is such a powerful backing as the Wei State, the Yi family will inevitably have to pay a certain price, and the princes will inevitably weigh their concerns if they want to touch the Yi family.

Choosing the lesser of two evils, after deliberation in his mind, Yiping immediately bowed to Wei Feng.

"The Yi family is willing to help the king and the Kingdom of Wei."

After reaching an agreement with Yi Ping, the head of the Yi family, Wei Feng led Prince Wei Shen back to the palace.

After asking someone to get a red pen and lightly click on the Zhongshan State between Yan State and Zhao State on the map, Wei Feng looked at his son Wei Shen.

"how?"

Taking note of Wei Feng's actions just now, Wei Shen just thought for a moment and understood the other party's intention today.

"Father, this is your intention to use the power of the Yi family to make friends with the Zhongshan Kingdom in order to deal with the increasingly powerful Zhao Kingdom."

"good."

Putting the ink pen on the tray and folding his hands into his long sleeves, Wei Feng stared at the map in front of him.

"Although the Zhongshan State is not very large, it occupies several arteries connecting the east and west of the Taihang Mountains. Its position is very important. This is why the State of Zhao has always regarded it as a serious problem."

"Since the last war, the State of Zhao took the territory north of Jishui of the State of Qi into its pocket. In the past two years, it has not stopped and has continued to send more troops to the border between Zhao State and Zhongshan."

"The State of Zhao and our State of Wei are allies. Naturally, our State of Wei cannot embarrass the State of Zhao openly, but secretly..."

Since resurrecting his life, Wei Feng has restrained his pride and arrogance from his previous life, and his diplomatic relations have become more trustworthy.

But using more upright methods does not mean that Wei Feng will not use those shady and underhanded tricks.

At this moment, Wei and Zhao are still superficial allies. Wei Feng cannot take the initiative to go to war with Zhao, but he can still secretly support Zhao's enemies.

Zhongshan State is located in the hinterland of Zhao State and has very strong combat power. Naturally, it became Wei Feng's best choice to create obstacles for Zhao State.

Wei Feng did not forget how many times Zhao State attacked Zhongshan State in his previous life, but was defeated one after another.

While Wei Feng and Wei Shen were discussing the situation in the north of Wei State, a set of footsteps appeared outside the main hall.

The two of them looked in the direction where the footsteps came from, and Sima Sunboling quickly stepped into the hall.

"Greetings to the King, Prince."

"Sima doesn't need to be polite."

His eyes glanced at the silk book in Sun Boling's hand, and then thinking about the news he had received in recent days, Wei Feng's eyes flashed.

"But the situation in the south has changed."

"The King's clear vision."

While handing the silk book in his hand to Wei Feng, Sun Boling quickly walked to the map.

His right hand moved quickly on the map, and Sun Boling's voice rang out in the hall, "Your Majesty, according to the news sent back from the previous detailed report, the Chu State has stationed more than 100,000 troops in Zhaoguan, with food, grass and baggage.

It is also transported to the location via river water.”

"Just the day before yesterday, the King of Chu had selected the leader of this army, and it was none other than Sima Jingshe, the veteran general of the Chu State."

"It is conceivable that as soon as King Chu gives an order, the war between Chu and Yue will begin."

After reading the silk book in his hand, Prince Wei Shen looked at Wei Feng next to him with some dignity.

"Father, the war is about to begin, and we, the State of Wei, should prepare early."

"Um."

Looking at the map in front of him, listening to the voice in his ears, and thinking about the current situation in his mind, Wei Feng nodded lightly.

"Where is the army of Wei warriors led by the general?"

As the elite of the Wei army, Wei Wuzu was the sharpest long sword in Wei's hands. Now that the war was about to break out, Wei Feng naturally thought of this army immediately.

As the Sima in charge of Wei's national military affairs, Sun Boling immediately responded: "Your Majesty, in order to respond to Chu's actions a few days ago, the general led his army south to Daliang on the king's order, and has now arrived in Xingyang."

Following Sun Boling's introduction, Wei Feng's eyes fell on the city where the gap began on the map, and a touch of calm appeared in his eyes.

"Order the general to continue to lead the army to Daliang, and to send 50,000 reinforcements from Hedong and Hexi to the general."

"Once the Chu State goes to war with the Yue State, our Wei State must have enough strength in the direction of Daliang to deter the Chu State."

"Follow orders."

After bowing and accepting the order, Sun Boling left quickly and went to arrange various matters for the mobilization of the army.

When Sun Boling's figure disappeared into the hall, Wei Feng looked at the prince Wei Shen beside him and said, "Prince, I will go to see the Yue envoy in Anyi City on my behalf. I think he will be interested in this news.

"

There are some matters where Wei Feng, the king of Wei, is not suitable to intervene, nor is Xu Yan, the official in charge of diplomatic relations in Wei, but Prince Wei Shen is very suitable.

"Here." After the same bow, Wei Shen quickly walked out of the hall.

At this moment, Wei Feng was the only one left in the huge palace.

After staring at the map in front of him for a long time, he heard Wei Feng muttering to himself: "The war is about to begin."
