Although Uncle Acne is selfish, this plan is also a plan to seek the country.

If Wei gets Handan, then the east of Taihang Mountain will have nothing to do with Zhao at all; The enclave of Zhongshan can also become the core territory of Wei, and Ximen Leopard itself also has the talent for governance, if Handan can be governed like Yedi, then Handan will become the bridgehead of Wei in the east of Taihang Mountain and Zhongshan Kingdom, and it is useless to let Zhongshan State jump.

Handan is the fief of Gongzizhang, and now it is not the capital of Zhao, Gongzi Dynasty used this in exchange for the support of Wei, because the old nobles who supported him, and without changing the law, there was no obstacle in Zhongmu as the capital of the nobles.

If you can take this opportunity to get Handan, the situation of Wei can be completely opened.

At that time, Handan will be the axis, linking Zhongshan with the Central Plains of Wei.

If you go north, you can attack Yan; Eastward, can be attacked; Going south, it is itself competing with the Chu State for hegemony; The western expedition can also attack Qin through the West River.

For a country that seeks hegemony and unification and the world, it is actually an expansion choice during the offensive period.

It cannot be said that this is an enemy from all sides, because if the Wei State maintains the momentum of twenty years ago, it can be called a flowering on all sides, and the key lies in the strength of the Wei State itself.

Wei itself is a place of four wars, and there is no situation where I don't attack and I defend it. Shu can do this, Chu can do this, Yan can do this, Qin can do this, but Wei can't.

If Wei does not attack, it is not defending, but dying.

It's just that Uncle Gong didn't understand the situation in the world, and the strength of Wei came from the earliest changes and the foundation left by Wenhou; Originated from the cultural advantages and cultural penetration of the Xihe School.

And now, all countries are seeking to change the law, and the cultural advantage of the Xihe School has been completely suppressed by the Sishang Mohist School, in fact, the advantage of the Wei State is no longer so great.

For example, during the time of Wenhou, you can draw the Qin Dexi River in the west, attack Chu in the south and capture the Great Liang, destroy Qi in the east and tear down the Great Wall, and destroy the country in the north to take Zhongshan...... Wei, Zheng and other small countries trembled and were loyal, but in fact, they followed the same strategy as Uncle Gong's expansion at this time. The question is whether Wei has the strength to fight on all sides now?

Uncle Gong can also perceive that the strength of Wei is not enough to support a war on all sides, in fact, Wei is not weak, but other countries are stronger, and the difference between strength and weakness has changed.

Therefore, on the northern front, Gong Shuxuan hoped to give up Zhongshan first and go all out to seek Zhao, because on the northern front, Wei could no longer withstand a two-front war, so he could only take one and seek the other again.

If it was Wenhou's time, maybe he didn't have to be so troublesome at all, he might interfere in Zhao's internal affairs while letting Ximen Leopard and Le Yang put down Zhongshan's rebellion, and maybe even Zhongshan would not think about rebellion.

Wei Zhen itself also supports the policy of interfering in Zhao, which was set by Wenhou when he was a marquis, from the day of Zhao's death, Weiss began to plan for Zhao's younger brother to ascend to the throne, and it has been more than ten years, which Wei cannot give up.

Wei Zhen didn't want to give up Zhongshan, but Uncle Gong still persuaded Wei Zhen not to start a war on two fronts on the northern front, and to try to solve the affairs of Zhao State first, and Zhongshan State was at your fingertips; If Zhao's affairs are not resolved, Zhongshan cannot be solved.

Wei Zhen asked again: "Then, what about the Chu State attacking Chen Cai and the Fei State inviting the widow to be the king?" ”

Uncle Gong said: "In terms of Wei, the north is Zhao and Zhongshan; East is Qi; Qin in the west; The south is Chu and Mo. ”

"Zhao and Zhongshan have already made up their minds. The Qi Tian clan respected the monarch and did not dare to move lightly. The Qin people's civil strife was imminent, and there was no need to guard against it. Then you need to consider the affairs of the Chu State and the Mo family. ”

"Your Majesty, if you win the world, you must go south. Jin and Chu competed for hegemony, throughout the Spring and Autumn Period. In terms of the state of Chu, the state of Chu can be divided into two lines: east and west. the eastern line is Chencai, Sishang, and Huaibei; The west line is south of Yang, Fangcheng and Kunyang. ”

"Now that the strength of the Wei State is not enough to attack on all fronts, and the east and west will advance and destroy the Chu State, then we can't help but plan."

Wei Zhen smiled: "I know about this. The first monarch seized Daliang and Yuguan and restored Chen Cai to the country, which was seeking the eastern front of the Chu State. The land of Nanyang Luguan...... Well, not easy to attack. ”

In the rebellion of Wang Ziding that year, Wei Zhen was the commander and defeated Luyang, which bankrupted the plan to break Nanyang and enter Wang Ziding, and also made Wei Zheng reluctant to mention his defeat.

After Wei gave up Wu's strategy of destroying Qin first and then seeking the Central Plains due to various factors, the Central Plains, Sishang, and Huaibei became the best direction for Wei to expand.

Including the affairs of Zhao and Zhongshan that Uncle Acne just talked about, they were all formulated for this strategy.

Let Zhao weaken, instead of attacking Zhao with all its might, is for the stability of Wei's "rear".

Since the direction of Zhao is regarded as the rear, then it is convenient to have a front line, the front line of Wei is Chu State, and the direction of Wei State wants to expand is Sishang.

Gong Shuxuan divided the Chu State into the Eastern Front and the Western Front, and said that the current national strength of the Wei State was not enough to support a two-front battle on the southern front, so it could only choose one from the Eastern Front and the Western Front.

Originally, it was a good choice.

Before the emergence of the Mo family, it was an academic organization and a ranger organization, and its strength was not very strong.

Before the Mo family occupied Sishang, Sishang was a concentration of weak chickens.

The Song Kingdom, the Wei Kingdom, and the Lu Kingdom, these are all plain areas, extremely rich, even if it is a thousand years later, the future generations, regardless of the factors of population increase, without considering the Yellow River flooding and diversion, southwest Lu, Henan, and northern Jiangsu, which are all rich places in the agricultural era.

If there was no Mo family, Sishang would be the place of competition for Qi, Wei, Chu and other countries, a standard Zhuxia powder keg.

The Nanyang region of the Western Front was the foundation of the Chu State. Once Nanyang is breached, then from Luyang to Xiangyang, which is named Yanying at this time, it is a great plain, and there is no danger to defend.

The direction of Nanyang is the foundation of the Chu State, and the advantage of the Wei State in the direction of Daliang and Yuguan is still tolerable to the Chu State, but once it breaks through Luyang and enters the Great Wall of Zhumadian, it is equivalent to directly threatening the core of the Chu State, which is the inevitable desperate counterattack of the Chu State.

The reverse is the same for the Wei State, either from Nanyang to Yanying, with Xiangyang as the boundary to separate the north and south. Otherwise, a plain, after a few years of capture, the Chu people will fight back, which is meaningless. Now Wei did not have the ability to fight all the way from Luyang to Xiangyang, which made Wei completely abandon the Western Front and instead devote its energy to the Eastern Front.

The issue of the Eastern Front became quite complicated after the Mo family began to divide the country by armed secession.

The country of the Song Kingdom, whether it is strong or not, whether it is weak or not, has a foundation and a foundation, and occasionally rises up, that can level the town of Chu; Once it is too strong, it will be besieged from all sides. The two military meetings in the Spring and Autumn Period were concluded in the Song Kingdom, and the doctors of the Song Kingdom left a lot of stories as ministers of small countries in the troubled times of the Spring and Autumn Period.

In addition to the Song State, the Lu State is not strong, and the small countries of Fei, Xue, Teng, Pi, Zou, and Ni are all surviving in the cracks of the big countries. The forces of Chu, Yue, Qi, and Sanjin converged here, and they were all the farthest points of each country's sphere of influence, just like the Balkans in Europe in later generations.

It is rich here, especially after the emergence of iron oxen ploughing and ridge farming, coal and iron Xuzhou, southwest Lu without the flooding and salinization of the Yellow River, and Huaibei where the Yellow River does not take Huai into the sea, this is simply the most suitable land for iron age farming.

When he entered the Mo family, he was just in time for the Jin and Chu struggles, the Qi civil strife, the Chu civil strife, and the collapse of the Three Jin Dynasty, and no one had the energy to put all their strength into Sishang.

By the time the countries woke up with a sigh of relief, the Mo family was already like those alfalfa brought back from the West, which had taken root in Sishang, and it was unlikely that they would be removed in the short term.

As soon as the Yue State left, the Qi State coveted Sishang, the Wei State coveted Sishang, and the Chu State actually coveted it.

However, it is suitable to take advantage of the contradiction between Wei and Chu to split the Chu State, resulting in the king of Chu not even recovering Chen Cai now, let alone Sishang.

The Vietnamese country is strong and the middle is dry, and the battle of the water shows its original form, and the people of the world know that the original Yue country is no longer the tiger of the Goujian era, but it is too late, and the Mo family takes the first step.

It was easy for Wei to get Liqiu and Chengyang, which were a hundred miles away from Taoqiu in Sishang, but they tried to make Wei face the pressure of Zhao, Zhongshan, and Qin, so that Wei could only be greedy and could not really seek it.

Uncle Gong talked about the east and west lines of the Chu State, and Wei Zhen also had plans in his heart.

On the western front of Nanyang, the state of Chu can take the direction of Yi and Que and attack the essence of Luoyang and Korea.

Chu Guoqiang, then Korea will be attached to Wei, Liang Yu is in hand, Chu State's passage from Henan to the Central Plains is locked, and if you want to go north, you can only pass through the territory of Korea and the Zhou royal family. In the end, it was still South Korea that was most defensive against Chu, and South Korea had to rely on Wei to fight against Chu. The western line of Nanyang between Wei and Chu did not border, but there was Korea as a buffer, which was a favorable situation for Wei.

If Wei and South Korea join forces to attack Nanyang, it will be South Korea that will get the benefits, after all, Wei will go through the land of South Korea to fight Nanyang, and if it really opens up the situation in Nanyang, it will be to make wedding clothes for South Korea. If Chu's power in Nanyang weakened, the alliance between Korea and Wei would collapse in an instant.

The strength of the state of Chu was the most reliable cornerstone of the Wei-Han alliance. In addition, even if Wei and Han connected with their in-laws, it was not as effective as the threat of Chu.

Although there is a Mo family on the Eastern Front, based on the understanding of the organizational form of the princes of various countries, they all think that there is something wrong with the Mo family.

The giant is selected among the seven evils, so who is chosen? Who not to choose? Isn't it who has the biggest fist? Now that Mozi has died, the prestige of the bird slippery is high, once the bird slippery dies, maybe the right can still be stable, and then there will be civil strife?

The current strange situation in Sishang stems from the fact that the Mo family has mainly infiltrated and spread morality in recent years. In terms of strength, tying Song, Lu, Fei and other countries together may not be the opponent of the Mo family, but the Mo family doesn't seem to care about the size of the land at all, and really formed a non-offensive alliance with them, which makes these princes quite puzzled, but it also ensures the stability of Sishang.

The strongest one, normally it is to be annexed everywhere, and the Mo family can destroy Xue, Zou and other countries with even one finger in the past few years, but they have not done it at all, which has led to the stability of the situation in Sishang.

This is like the Wei State in the time of Wenhou, when he suddenly decided that the world would not attack, and the world would be stable. This is the same situation when it is put on Si.

In this situation, no one in Qi, Chu, Wei, Han and other countries can take the lead. Whoever strikes first suffers.

However, the greed of various countries for Sishang and Huaibei has always been conspiring. Qi attacked the most, Chu attacked Chen Cai, and Wei captured Chengyang in exchange for Xiaqiu from Zhao, all of which were preparing for Sishang.

All the countries in the world, except for Qin, Zhao, and Yan, whoever wins Sishang is the overlord of the world.

Now in the matter of Fei Guo, since Uncle Gong and Wei Zheng are both looking at it from the perspective of fighting for world domination, the problem is far less minor than what the Mo family's top leaders are worried about.

The matter of the Fei country, if it is a holy war between the old rules and the new culture, then it will be very troublesome for the Mo family.

If it is only from the perspective of fighting for hegemony in the world, then the Mo family can continue to take advantage of the contradictions between the princes.

Uncle Gong talked about the eastern front of Chu State, in fact, he was talking about what is happening in Fei State now, and it was from the perspective of fighting for hegemony in the world.

What Wei Zhen wants to hear is also how Wei can get the most benefit from this Fei State Rebellion, instead of wanting to use the entire Wei State as a sacrifice to be a martyr of the old rules and culture.
