"Since we are not strong enough, we will simply start from the simplest place. What does Uncle Zong think of Qindong's land?"

After pondering for a moment, Wang Cuo looked at Wei Zhi who was sitting upright above him and gave his advice in a deep voice.

But what he didn't expect was that this proposal not only failed to arouse the other party's interest, but instead caused a trace of hesitation to flash across Wei Zhi's face.

With the sudden doubt in his heart, Wang Cuo immediately asked: "Does Uncle Zong have any concerns in his heart?"

"well……"

After a long sigh, Wei Zhi said to Wang Cuo in a deep voice: "It's not anything else. I just heard from the old Prime Minister that one of his disciples, Gongsun Yang, was favored by the king a few days ago.

Sent to the land of Qindong."

"If we choose the land of Qin Dong to attack, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to the old prime minister?"

In fact, it is not without reason that Wei Zhi has such worries in his heart.

As mentioned before, if divided according to their origin, the courtiers in the Wei Dynasty can be divided into two parts: noble children and scholars;

However, if we look at the distance between individuals, the current Wei court can also be divided into three factions.

The first faction among them is naturally the faction to which the current Prime Minister Gongsun Qi belongs.

The members of this faction mainly come from the Qin military. They were promoted due to merit due to Gongsun Qi's favor in the past two wars, so they support Gongsun Qi from the bottom of their hearts.

Likewise, the support of these people undoubtedly played a big role in why Gongsun Qi became the Prime Minister of Wei this time.

Naturally, this second faction secretly opposed Gongsun Qi's important officials, including his uncle Wei Zhi, Shang Qing Wang Cuo, and Xia Qing Duan Qianjie.

They may have had previous disagreements with Gongsun Qi, or they may have secretly dissatisfied with Gongsun Qi's appointment as prime minister. In short, they are the main force opposing Gongsun Qi.

Of course, in addition to the above two factions that support or oppose Gongsun Qi, there is also a faction that remains neutral.

The former leader of this faction was Gong Shucuo, who had resigned from the position of prime minister at this time, or in other words, this was the faction led by Gongshu Cuo when he was in power.

Although with the resignation of Prime Minister Gongshu Cuo, the power of this faction was greatly weakened, and many members chose to join the other two factions;

But after all, Gongshu Cuo has been in the position for decades, and the strength of his faction cannot be ignored by anyone.

As a disciple of Gongshu Cuo, Gongsun Yang was undoubtedly a member of Gongshu Cuo's faction.

In addition, since he is now appreciated by Wei Feng, he may become the leader of that faction in the future.

Offending the old Prime Minister Guo Gongshu Cuo who still has great influence in the court, offending a young man who is destined to shine brightly in the Wei court, offending a faction that is gradually declining but has a rich heritage.

This is something that Zongbo Wei Zhi, who deeply understands the current situation in the Wei court, absolutely does not want to see.

What's more, if the strength of the attack is not well controlled, and the opponent is completely pushed from the original neutrality to Gongsun Qi's faction, I am afraid that the situation will be even more unfavorable for our own side.

Wang Cuo also understood Wei Zhi's worries at this moment. He also knew clearly what the consequences would be if he touched this young man named Gongsun Yang.

But with their current strength, facing the huge Wei State, there is probably no better place to start than the land of Qindong.

There are 50,000 elite troops stationed in Hexi, and each fortress is firmly controlled by the Wei military. It is really difficult to attack here.

Hanoi is mainly centered on Yecheng, which was guarded by Ximen Bao at that time. A certain system for the transmission of government orders has already been formed, and it is not a place they can easily touch.

The land of Henan, with Daliang as its core, is mainly responsible for defending against the two powerful enemies of Qi and Chu. With so much attention being paid to them, they don't have many opportunities to attack.

As for Anyi, where the capital of the Wei State is located, it is the foundation of the Wei family. As a Marquis of Wei, Wei Feng will never let anyone get involved.

It can be said that after considering various factors, the best choice they can get is the Qindong land that Wei just acquired.

"Uncle Zong, if my strength allows, I am willing to change my place. But..."

With some deep helplessness, Wang Cuo continued: "It's just that the difficulty of attacking in other places is too great compared to Qindong's land."

"The top priority is to make your Majesty lose trust in Gongsun Qi as soon as possible. As for other things, I'm afraid I can't care about that much."

"well……"

After Wei Zhi heard Wang Cuo's words, he let out a deep sigh, and then a look of determination appeared on his face.

"In this case, we will take action first. As for Gongsun Yang, I will personally go to the old prime minister to apologize in the future."

"Also, this matter must be done carefully. We cannot let others see that we are doing it secretly, especially if you don't let your Majesty know about it."

As soon as Wei Zhi said these words, Wang Cuo and Duan Qianjie below looked at each other, with a bit of solemnity in their eyes.

"Uncle Zong, don't worry, I'll understand later."

…

"Ouch, ouch, ouch..."

In the early morning, a loud crowing of cocks woke up the city of Anyi, which had been sleeping all night.

When the still half-asleep sun shed its first ray of sunlight on the earth, the heavy city gate to the west of Anyi was slowly opened with a squeezing sound of wood.

Seeing the scenery inside and outside the city appear in front of him, the merchants and pedestrians who had been waiting to enter or leave the city quickly took their steps.

Among the teams leaving the city, Gongsun Yang and Shen Buhu were slowly walking out of the city gate. Behind them was a carriage with a somewhat simple shape.

After walking for a while, Gongsun Yang among them first looked back at the Anyi city wall not far away, and then turned his eyes to the friend who came to see him off.

"No harm, brother, we have to say goodbye today, but I don't know when we can see each other again?"

Listening to the words spoken by Gongsun Yang in front of him, which seemed to be asking himself and others, and feeling the deep feeling of farewell contained in them, Shen Buhai also felt a little emotional in his heart.

However, he was not as sad as others were saying goodbye, but looked at Gongsun Yang opposite with expectation.

"The land of Qindong is the newly acquired land of our Wei State, and Yueyang County is the original capital of the Qin State. Brother Yang will definitely be able to show his talents here."

"Brother, I am waiting quietly in Anyi City, waiting for the day when Brother Yang will become famous and be recalled to Anyi by the king."

After finishing his words, Shen Buhu gave a solemn salute to Gongsun Yang in front of him, "Brother Yang, take care of yourself all the way here."

"No harm to my brother, Yang Yang also wishes you a bright future and take care of yourself." After saying this, Gongsun Yang also bowed.

At this moment, along with the sound of horse hooves, a somewhat loud voice appeared in the ears of the two of them.

"Brother no harm, brother Yang, wait for me."

After a while, a majestic war horse appeared in front of the two of them, and then a heroic young man wearing red armor appeared in their field of vision.

This person is not Gongzi Yan, but who is he?
