Chapter 421: Pursue the victory
That is to say, just when the game of chess between Wei Wang Wei Feng and Prime Minister Gong Sun Qi was finished, a burst of footsteps came from outside the palace.
"Great victory..."
When the two of them looked in the direction of the sound, they saw Sima Sunboling walking into the hall in three steps and two steps at a time.
Seeing this scene, Wei Feng and Gongsun Qi looked at each other and smiled, "Prime Minister, it seems that our general, Wei, has brought good news to us."
"Old minister, congratulations to the king!"
Within a few breaths, Sun Boling had arrived beside the two of them, his face full of uncontrollable smiles.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, a great victory on the front line."
At the same time as reporting, Sun Boling handed the silk book in his hand to Wei Feng.
Taking the silk book from the opponent's hand, Wei Feng's eyes began to move between the seal characters one by one.
When he saw that Gongsun Cuo led the elite Wei army to break through Fangcheng Pass and cut off the Chu army's interconnection channels, and that the 20,000 Chu army forwards had become a lone army, Wei Feng was extremely excited.
A loud "bang" sound resounded in the hall, and the chess pieces on the chessboard were shaken up.
Wei Feng stood up directly from his seat, his heroic voice resounding throughout the hall.
"color!"
"My general is mighty, and my Wei army officers are mighty!"
Faced with such exciting news, Prime Minister Gongsun Qi and Sima Sun Boling stood behind Wei Feng at the same time and bowed to the front.
"I would like to congratulate the king and congratulate the state of Wei."
The excitement and joy lasted for a long time in the main hall, and it was not until Wei Feng and the other three sat down again that they finally dissipated.
He raised his eyes and looked at Wei Feng, who was still smiling. As Sima, Sun Boling, who was in charge of military affairs, slowly spoke out.
"Your Majesty, since our army has broken through Fangcheng, should we pursue the victory while the Chu army has not yet reacted to the setback on the front line?"
"That's the way it is!"
At this time, Wei Feng could be said to be very ambitious. In this war against Chu, Wei could be said to have a complete upper hand.
Not only that, the Wei State under his rule also accomplished the goals that neither Duke Huan of Qi's Qi State nor Jin Wengong's Jin State could accomplish.
That is to defeat Fangcheng, which is the most important place of Chu State, and invade the hinterland of Wancheng of Chu State.
This battle against Chu is not over, on the contrary, it has just begun. Wei Feng is looking forward to the day when the Wei army arrives at the capital city of Ying.
With a face full of expectation, Wei Feng looked at Prime Minister Gongsun Qi across from him for advice.
"What does the Prime Minister think?"
"After several years of operation, half of Guanzhong has initially accepted the rule of our country Wei, and the people of Guanzhong have gradually regarded themselves as Wei people."
"Now that the land of Guanzhong has been initially pacified, and the Chu army has turned its attention to the general's headquarters in the east, I think it's time for the army in the land of Guanzhong to make a move!"
After the previous Battle of Guanzhong ended, the Wei State once left an army of 50,000 in Guanzhong.
The original purpose of leaving this army behind was to deal with unexpected events that might happen in the Guanzhong land.
Now, the Wei State has ruled this land for several years, and the entire Guanzhong land is becoming increasingly stable, and these 50,000 troops can be mobilized.
In fact, before the war started, the top leaders of Wei State had a plan.
Once the offensive led by General Pang Juan is frustrated, the 50,000 troops in Guanzhong can move out of Wuguan to distract the Chu army.
After the battle at Fangchengguan, the Wei army's advantage had been completely established, and the 50,000-strong army in Guanzhong immediately changed.
The same troops were sent out of Wuguan, but the goal was changed from distracting the Chu army to capturing Danxi, seizing Rangcheng, and forming a pincer attack from the east and west with the 100,000 troops led by General Pang Juan.
Once 50,000 Wei troops leave Wuguan, Wan County of Chu State will be completely under the attack of the Wei army. As for the next goal...
Go all the way south to Yingdu!
"good!"
After receiving Gongsun Qi's support, Wei Feng's face was full of majesty.
"Inherited by the king's order, Situ Gongsun Yangma was ordered to lead the 50,000-strong army from Guanzhong out of Wuguan."
"I will obey the king's orders."
After bowing to accept the order, Sun Boling, as Sima, temporarily stepped down and went to arrange and convey the military orders for the army to go out.
As for Wei Wang Wei Feng who gave the order, his eyes returned to Gongsun Qi opposite him, "Prime Minister, how are things going in Korea?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. With Xu Yan and Shen Buhai as envoys, and with the news of our army's success, I expect that the King of Han will be able to weigh the pros and cons and make the right decision."
"In this way, I will listen to the good news from the Prime Minister."
…
South Korea, Xinzheng.
"No harm brother, please!"
"Brother Yan, please!"
In a prosperous wine shop in Xinzheng City, Shen Buhai and Wang Cuo, who were envoys of the Wei State to South Korea, raised their wine glasses and bowed to each other.
When the two wines were in their stomachs and they felt the fragrance coming from their mouths, both of them had a look of joy on their faces.
"As expected, as Brother Buhao said, this Korean wine has a different taste than our Wei wine."
"I don't dare to praise Brother Yan. It's just that I drank a lot when I was young in Korea. Over the years, I drank more of the fine wines of our country Wei."
As soon as he finished speaking, his interest seemed to rise, and the two of them immediately became one again.
When the prince fell into his belly, he heard Xu Yan ask in a deep voice: "Brother Buhao, do you think South Korea is willing to send troops to attack Chu with our Wei State?"
"I am willing." Facing Xu Yan's question, Shen Buye put on a confident look. "To be honest, I think so for three reasons."
"Oh, I would like to hear the details."
Xu Yan immediately put on a posture of interest, his scorching gaze always fixed on Shen Buhai opposite him.
"First, our country Wei and South Korea have always been allies who help each other in offense and defense. Although South Korea has followed our country Wei over the years, although it cannot be said to have expanded its territory, it has gained a lot. This has also made the relationship between the two countries quite harmonious."
"Secondly, our Wei State has sent General Pang Juan and 100,000 elite troops this time. Even if our army cannot win this battle, it will be difficult for us to suffer a big defeat. If South Korea participates in this battle, there will definitely be nothing
Big loss.”
"Third, if we look at South Korea's surrounding areas, the biggest threat to South Korea is the Chu State. Once South Korea can defeat the Chu army together with our Wei State, it will not only be able to solve the hidden dangers of Chu State in the south, but also have the opportunity to turn its defense into an attack."
After saying these words, Shen Buhai looked at Xu Yan opposite.
"Brother Yan, if you were the king of Han, facing the prospect of not being defeated but possibly expanding the territory, would you send troops?"
"certainly."
As the two looked at each other, another smile appeared on the corners of their mouths.
That day, while the two Wei envoys were talking in a wine shop, King Han Wu of Han, who was in the Xinzheng Palace, finally made his choice.
Chapter completed!
