"King, Prime Minister..."

Situ Gongsun Yang's footsteps came hurriedly and soon appeared in front of Wei Hu and Gongsun Qi.

Gradually awakened from the excitement of the frontline good news, Wei Hu's eyes fell on Gongsun Yang who had entered the hall.

"Situ, can you tell me what happened when I called you into the palace today?"

Wei Hu's question made Gongsun Yang a little confused for a moment. He received Wei Hu's order while raising food and supplies for the frontline soldiers.

Under the guidance of the waiter, he came to Wei and the others.

Is it because of the war on the front line that happened?

Noting that Gongsun Yang had a puzzled expression on his face, a smile appeared on Gongsun Qi's face beside him.

"Situ, General, sent back the good news from the front line. King Zhao has decided to agree to the conditions proposed by our Great Wei. The war in Zhao is about to end."

"really?"

First, there was a burst of surprise, then a ecstasy appeared in Gongsun Yang's heart.

"My minister Gongsun Yang congratulates the king and congratulates the Great Wei."

"Situ doesn't have to be too polite."

"This battle against Zhao was entirely due to Situ's efforts to raise funds for our army and transport food, grass and supplies, which can be said to be an indelible contribution."

"When the war is completely concluded and the merits are rewarded, I and Wei will definitely not forget Situ's merits."

With a gentle smile on his face, Wei Ju helped Gongsun Yang up, "Today I summon Situ to the palace. In addition to the battle between Zhao State, there is another thing."

"As Situ saw, how long can our Great Wei last for this unprecedented war?"

If you want to say which one knows the most about the current Wei State’s family background, it must be the current Wei State’s Situ Gongsun Yang.

After following the old prime minister Gongshu Zhu for a long time, he was in the local area for several years, and with the position of Situ, who was in charge of civil affairs in the Wei State, these experiences have long carved Gongsun Yang into a piece of beautiful jade.

During this war, the continuous supply of food and supplies to the front line allowed the Wei Kingdom to see the bright light blooming from this beautiful jade.

It can be said that Gongsun Yang was the best successor to the position of Prime Minister of Wei. It all depends on when Gongsun Qi, the current prime minister, chose to give way.

He had almost no thoughts, and Gongsun Yang had a clear answer to this question in his mind.

Over the past year, in order to deal with the three attacks from the Chu State from the south, Qi State from the east and Zhao State from the north, the Wei State has used nearly 200,000 troops.

And the manpower and material resources used to provide food, grass and supplies to these 200,000 troops are countless.

Such a massive amount of material consumption is a huge burden for any country today, even if Wei's national strength is far superior to other countries.

The accumulation of the two generations of Wenhou and Wuhou, coupled with the territory obtained over the past decade, made the Wei Kingdom dare to face the three powerful countries of Chu, Zhao and Qi at the same time.

"Report to the king, according to my estimate, if the war continues on this scale, our Great Wei can still last for one year."

“One year…”

After getting such a result from Gongsun Yang, Wei Yu felt a little urgency in his heart.

"The Prime Minister, now that Zhao State is about to settle down, we are only two powerful enemies that we face."

"One is the wealthy Qi State in the east, and the other is the vast Chu State in the south. I wonder if the Prime Minister thinks that our Great Wei should attack Qi in the east or attack Chu in the south?"

Gongsun Qi, who was standing beside him, heard Wei Hu's inquiry and slowly returned to the map, and his eyes began to constantly surf the seal characters representing Chu and Qi.

It was not until a long time later that Gongsun Qi gave his own answer, "Report to the king, I think our Great Wei should go east instead of south next."

“Why?”

"Please look, the king." While speaking, Gongsun Qi moved his fingers lightly and outlined the vast territory of Chu on the map. "In the previous battle, although Chu lost his city and land, and lost his troops, he still had a vast territory and numerous troops."

"If our great Wei wants to go south to conquer Chu, we must do our best to organize a large army."

"And once this army is delayed within the territory of Chu State for a long time, it will inevitably affect the established purpose of our Great Wei."

"So..."

The sound suddenly stopped at this moment, and a cold light flashed in Gongsun Qi's gaze.

"In the battle against Chu, if you don't move, you will be thunderous."

Gongsun Qi's loud and vocal words immediately hit Wei Hu and Gongsun Yang on the side.

"Then the prime minister advocates the eastward advance, but how many pros and cons are there?" He nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Gongsun Qi's analysis. Gongsun Yang immediately asked.

"King, Situ, look at it again."

Gongsun Qi's fingers shifted again and landed in the east of the map behind him.

"Qi State is located on the coast of the East China Sea, bordering our Wei State, Zhao State and other countries to the west."

"The war in Zhao State is about to end. The general led 60,000 elite Wei Wu soldiers to station in Handan. He can take advantage of the situation to advance eastward and seize the territory north of the Ji River in Qi State in one fell swoop."

"This is a great advantage for the East to attack Qi."

The finger slowly moved downward, shifting from the northern part of Qi to the south, and Gongsun Qi continued to analyze.

"After capturing the north of the Ji River in Qi, our Great Wei cut off the contact between Qi and the northern princes. At that time, our Great Wei will help the Song, Lu and Yue to take over the southern part of Qi, and Qi will completely lose the channel for foreign aid."

"At that time, our Great Wei is the sword and Qi is the fish, or we will launch a large army to destroy Qi alone or combine the four countries of Wei, Song, Lu and Yue to divide Qi, and it will be decided by the king's words."

"This is the two great powers of the East attacking Qi."

After saying the Second Liberty, Gongsun Qi's fingers moved quickly on the map again, but this time they pointed from Qi to Chu.

"Qi and Chu formed an offensive and defensive alliance with each other because of the threat from our Great Wei. The two countries formed a juncture, and they restrained our Great Wei from the east and south."

"If our army attacks Qi in the east, it will not only severely damage Qi, which has been defeated by our army repeatedly, but also weaken the power of Chu."

"After cutting off the connection with Qi, the ally, Chu will be adjacent to Yue, Lu, Song, Han, Ba and our Great Wei, and it can be said that outside the territory, it is all enemy countries."

"With the power of our Great Wei, it may be a bit difficult to destroy the Chu State in one fell swoop. But the king can imitate the strong Jin Dynasty of the past and unite the princes of the Central Plains to go south, either by whale or by erosion, or by erosion, and the land of Chu will one day become the territory of our Great Wei."

"These three major benefits that advance eastward."

After saying everything, Gongsun Qi's eyes fell from the map behind him on Wei Hu's body.

"I'll ask the king to decide everything."

"I have benefited a lot from the Prime Minister's words. Since that's the case..."

After strode to the gate of the main hall and looking at the vastness above the sky, Wei Fu suddenly turned around.

"The command of General Long Jia to lead his army to the north to guard the Zhao capital Handan; after the rest of the army, General Pang Juan, was immediately advanced eastward and sent troops to Qi."

"As for me, it's time to go north and meet the future of Zhao Hou of the Great Wei."

After a solemnity, a little nostalgia gradually emerged in Wei Hu's eyes, and his thoughts became distant.

"I just don't know how many changes have occurred in the scenery on the banks of Zhang River?"
