As for today, the only one who is qualified to dominate is Wei and Chu.

The Chu people kept trying to open up the situation in the Central Plains. Even if they could not fully attack the Intermediate Court and maintain the Song, Zheng and other countries' pro-Chu policies were always established.

Weiss is not unaware that Wu Qi and others' opinions are correct, but he is still shaken in the face of huge temptation.

All countries except Chu now seem to be no match for Wei, and the only obstacle to Wei's domination is Chu.

The remnants of the Spring and Autumn Period and the joy of just being appointed as a marquis made Weiss' thinking tend to dominate.

Qi State was defeated, the Three Jins were harmonious, Yan State was weak, Qin lost the Xihe River, and the only one that Wei State has not officially defeated is the Chu people.

When the Mohists such as Qin Huali came here, they had the Mohists' performance in Shangqiu as support, and the opinions of ministers such as Wu Qi as the pillars. Weiss's opinions were originally inclined to stop the war.

Whether to stop the war determines the expansion direction of Wei State.

Do you want to digest Zhongshan Kingdom and continue to oppress Qin Kingdom?

Or start to guide the Central Plains and point your sword at the ridge?

Weiss was originally a wise man. Tian Zifang, Duan Ganmu and others were friends with Qin Huali. The Mohist school sent Qin Huali to come. Weiss knew that this person was talented as soon as he saw it.

After talking for a few days, Weiss realized that what Qin Huali said was quite reasonable.

The Mohist school was utilitarian and never taboo, so it was also talked about the benefits of Wei State's participation in the fight.

However, in the eyes of the monarch, it ultimately depends on interests.

The prince decided to flee to Zheng, which was really a rare opportunity for Wei State, because Qin State was a weakling in the eyes of Wei State at this time.

The State of Chu was the only obstacle to the dominance of Wei. From the end of the Spring and Autumn Period to the beginning of the Warring States Period, the main theme of the world dispute was the struggle for hegemony between Jin and Chu.

All countries are still at the beginning of reform, and many other countries still maintain the thinking of the Spring and Autumn Period. The Chu people are now in a state of decline, but because of their previous strength, no country thinks that the Chu State has become so decayed that it has lost its ability to compete for hegemony.

Wang Ziding gave enough favorable conditions, and many nobles in Chu also supported Wang Ziding.

This internal instability will continue to intensify with the changes in the external situation.

Weis knew that the State of Chu was still stable, and there was no such thing as Gongsun Hui of Qi's establishment in Linqiu.

It was just because the power of the King of Chu seemed to be enough to suppress those nobles. If the Three Jins work together, even if they defeat the Chu people in a decisive battle, the nobles who were ready to move in Chu immediately would not recognize the status of the King of Chu at this time.

If the Chu State could be weakened, it would completely clear the obstacles to Wei State's dominance, because the rest of the countries did not stop the Wei people from dominating, at least now.

Weiss was not unhinged by the Mohist proposals, especially after he proposed to strengthen centralization, valuing virtuous as his responsibility, and farming iron tools.

Originally, the Maharaja was good at eloquence, and the Mohist debate technique was at its peak at this time. It added a lot of novel and effective knowledge, which made it easier to impress the king.

Mozi's original theory of saving and multiplying population is already attractive enough.

But this is roughly.

The various technological changes brought about by appropriateness are the "tactics" under this general strategy, and they are very closely coordinated.

Twenty years of peace have led to a doubling of civilians and abundance of national investment. Originally, it was just a general idea. After the various technological changes brought about by appropriately popularized, this general idea is a perfect plan.

The plan for the Wei State's strategy for the next 20 years is also consistent with the various changes proposed by the Mohist school.

The wise man was the responsibility, and the land reform broke the backbone of the nobles of Zhongshan Kingdom and made Zhongshan Kingdom become the land of Wei from then on.

The Xihe Reform officially recognized the private ownership of the land and could even provide iron tools to accelerate the reclaiming, so that the Qin people would forget their identity within a few years.

Accumulating strength allows Chu to continue to bring endless pressure to South Korea, forcing South Korea to pro-Wei, thereby maintaining its deterrence against the Zhao people.

Maintain the independence of Zheng State to instigate the conflict between Zheng and Han, ensure that Zheng and Han are always in a hostile state, and at the same time, the Zheng people will not be destroyed by Han: even if the Mo family does not promote the suspension of war, Wei State will try its best to mediate the independence of Zheng State, so as to prevent South Korea from becoming bigger and taking the lead in expanding in the Central Plains.

In Wu Qi's last letter, this is the general idea of ​​Wei State.

And the basis of everything is the Jiarong Revolution and the popularity of iron tools doubled the number of military soldiers.

In a letter, Wu Qi told the Marquis of Wei that the Mo family had hundreds of elite troops in the city of Shangqiu to break through Chu. Even if the martial soldiers could not possess the elite power of the Mo family, they could have the good combat of the Yishi of Pei County.

The world's military revolution system, the peasant soldiers and fighting chariots are outdated, the era of infantry has arrived, and the Wushu can adapt to the technological changes of the Mohist school.

As long as Wei State can continue to maintain rest and recuperate, the reform will be successful within twenty years, and the alliance will end in twenty years, and no one will be able to stop the world.

Weiss thought all this made sense.

However...it will take twenty years.

Weiss knew that he was already seventy years old, and he was not Lao Peng or the like, so he could not live for another twenty years.

After several generations of ancestors, they worked hard and finally became a marquis.

And he hopes to be Qi Huan and Jin Wen once before his death!

Moreover, if the Chu people were defeated, there would be no more that the world could stop Wei State. At that time, there would be time to change, and what they left for their son would be a better surrounding environment.

The envoy sent by Prince Ding had already informed Weiss of Prince Ding's trump card.

Xiong Ding promised that as long as the Three Jins and Zheng work together to defeat the Chu people once, many places in the Chu State will recognize that Xiong Ding is the legal heir.

The vassals of the Chen Kingdom, the Cai Kingdom, Zhongmu, Qifeng, Xia Cai, Yangxia and other places, as long as the Wei people sent troops to defeat the King of Chu at this time, they could respond to the prince's call for inheritance.

This is the trump card set by the prince, but it is also the crisis of Chu.

What Weis needs is the civil strife of the Chu people.

What is the military strength of Chu? Weiss cannot accurately judge if he has not fought for decades, but the Mo family in Shangqiu City captured the King of Chu in the end, Weiss finally felt a little contemptuous.

If the Three Jins work together to join Prince Ding, the Three Jins can be defeated, but the Chu people cannot be defeated. As long as they lose once, the Chu State will be divided into two.

Chu is weaker than the public clan, which is a consensus in the world.

All vassals and county lords all have the ability to abolish monarchs and seize power in a coup.

Weiss believed in the prince's words.

Even if the Three Jins failed several times, as long as they won once, the State of Chu would be in danger.

The dreams and ambitions of being Qi Huan and Jin Wen during their lifetime impacted Weiss' judgment.

When people get old, they will have obsessions.

So Weis rejected Qin Huali's request for advice today, but summoned Li Kui and others to discuss the matter of entering the prince's decree.

After analyzing all the things, Li Kui said, "Wu Qi's book a few months ago is contrary to what you are discussing today."

Prince Jiduo heard the rumors about Wu Qi in Anyi, and had a slight slight dilemma on whether to send troops to rescue Song, and snorted: "A month ago, the King of Chu was still there, but now he is not there."

"I heard that picking meadows in spring and picking berry in summer, the seasons change, and what you do in spring is wrong in summer. Isn't that the reason?"

Li Kui glanced at Gongziji, but did not refute, but said, "This is not right or wrong."

"The King of Chu is newly established and the prince is determined to run away, and the situation will inevitably be unstable. At this time, he will definitely bribe all countries to be a backup."

"The Qi people were newly defeated, let alone the Tian family's internal struggle, and there is no worries. The one who is worried is Qin."

"The Qin people must support Chu and want to seize the Xihe River. The Chu people must also send good generals to the north to defend Fangcheng Daliang."

"Since this is the case, Wu Qi's plan to strengthen the West River and erode Qin's territory and break Guanzhong will not be used."

"If you enter Prince Ding, Xihe can only defend but not attack. If you can enter in one battle, it's okay."

"If you cannot win in one battle, you will be forced to summon Wu Qi as a general and defeat the Chu people."

Speaking of this, Li Kui knew that his words were not very nice, so he had to add: "Young master attacked him as his son, and you should not take any risk easily. Therefore, I said that I would summon Wu Qi as a general."

Gongzi Ji was originally a little dissatisfied. For him, if Li Kui didn't add the following sentence, he felt insulted.

Li Kui's meaning is very clear.

Weiss also understands.

If one battle can be won, it will naturally be of great benefit to the Wei State.

However, in Yuguan, Daliang, Chu, there is still Yangchengjun; in Lushan, there is still Luyanggong.

Both of these two people are good at fighting, and the square city is strong and the Great Wall is winding. If you cannot win quickly, the entire strategy of Wei State will be rearranged.

As the craftsman of the Wei State's reform, Li Kui knew how adapted to the new laws and regulations of all the Mohist techniques. He also understood that if he could develop the Central Plains with peace of mind, the Wei State would have as long as he digested Zhongshan Kingdom and Xihe, there would be no other way to compete with Wei in the world.

But if we cannot win quickly and re-election into the 100-year battle for hegemony in Jin and Chu, the strategic center must be transferred from Xihe and Zhongshan to the Central Plains generation.

Xihe, originally a strategic prominent unit, had to change from offense to defense, and even mobilized Xihe martial soldiers to go south to the Central Plains.

Both strategies seem to be right. Qin is bitter and cold, and the Central Plains is rich. However, the Qin people are brave and always threatened Wei to attack the Central Plains.

This time, if Qin did not send troops, it would be impossible.

Li Kui understood Wu Qi's ability in his heart, and the so-called Sima Rangju could not match.

If Wu Qi can be transferred to the general of Prince Ding and the military soldiers of Xihe will be called, this matter will be accomplished. However, if Wu Qi is transferred, it is unknown whether Xihe can defend the Qin people and take this opportunity to counterattack.

Everyone present knows this that the Xihe River cannot be thrown away.

If Wu Qi does not leave, then he will have to send someone else to the prince to settle down, which will increase the variable: others are not Wu Qi.

After Li Kui finished speaking, he said for a long time: "Since you want to enter Prince Ding, I thought you could send your son to attack Xihe, and summon Wu Qi to enter Prince Ding."

"If he is the commander, he cannot defeat the Chu people. Once the Chu people are defeated, many cities will be destroyed, and he will respond to the prince's decision."

"This way, these matters can be resolved as soon as possible."

"If the Chu people can be decayed within two years, then Wu Qi's general idea is still available, and we can still stop fighting with the Mo family."
