Fang Ling sat quietly on the wooden chair, looking at the map with a calm expression, and his heart was also full of ups and downs, mixed joys and sorrows.

His second brother Fang Ce was already the crown prince, and after the wedding, the power of Empress Song and the power of Prime Minister Cui Yixuan were combined, and its position was very consolidated in the imperial city, and it was not easy to seek the position of emperor in the future.

Although war is the best way, Fang Ling is sympathetic to the people and can't bear to let the people be displaced by the war, so he has been thinking of other ways.

However, now that the vassal states are in turmoil, and as soon as the war breaks out, they can't help but get involved in the war, and this is really a good opportunity to seize imperial power. However, just as the Eight Kings needed a proper reason to rebel, so the King of Qin needed a proper timing, and if the timing was not handled well, or the situation was not clearly analyzed, such an opportunity would be wasted.

And the most important thing is that the forces of the fiefdom are too small, so the only way to do now is to stand still and wait and see what happens.

After thinking about it, Fang Ling said to everyone: "The rebellion of the vassal states is handled by His Majesty, so we can't worry about it, but the fief also has its own crisis, if the Cai State is in turmoil, our fief will bear the brunt! Lord Chen, what do you think is the most appropriate time and opportunity for the Cai State to make a move?"

Chen Mou thought for a moment, and then replied: "Your Highness, according to the current situation, Cai Guo should not act rashly, because the greater our internal friction, it is also the most beneficial for them. However, if the army of the Eight Kings has always gained the upper hand, His Majesty orders the soldiers and horses in the north and the west to be kings, and when the northern land is empty, Cai Guo is likely to take advantage of the weakness. When the time comes, Your Majesty will be busy dealing with the war, and you will have no time to take care of the north, and Cai Guo will be able to take the opportunity to occupy a large number of territories!"

Fang Ling bowed slightly: "The current strength of the fiefdom is only 50,000, if the Cai State breaks through and merges with the states and the hundred states, I am afraid that we will be in the bag." Moreover, judging from the map, we still have another strong enemy, and that is the King of Yizhou!"

Chen Mou pointed to the cities that were currently captured by the Eight Kings and said: "From the current offensive of the Eight Kings, they are obviously divided into three routes, coming with a siege momentum, and they are not in a hurry to attack the central province, but to encroach on other states and counties to expand their strength. Our most direct enemy is the king of Yizhou, the king of Yizhou is currently connecting the three cities of Xuzhou, it seems that he is going to annex Xuzhou, beyond Xuzhou is Dingzhou, and the state, if his offensive goes well, I am afraid that in less than two or three months, our fiefdom will face a big war. ”

Everyone couldn't help frowning, whether it was the foreign enemy Cai Guo or the mighty King of Yizhou, it was a disaster for the newborn fiefdom.

And Fang Ling knew better in his heart that the King of Yizhou would never give up the opportunity to attack the fiefdom, this guy probably wanted to eat his own flesh, and on the Cai side, the border of Cai on the other side of the fief seemed to be under the banner of Tianji Hou Wei An, and he and he also had a blood feud.

He tapped his fingers slightly, frowned, and said: "If the enemy is only the king of Yizhou, then the king is confident that he can defeat him, but this foreign enemy is really a problem." ”

Chen Mou said suddenly at this time: "Your Highness, the minister has a strategy, but Cai Guo does not dare to act rashly outside the fief. ”
