After all, Wei Yuancheng and the Underworld Master had the entire aristocratic family backing them.
Therefore, their decision was related to the future of the entire family.
Naturally, he had to consider it carefully and not make a decision easily.
"How do you plan to raise an army?"
After a while, the Underworld Master asked.
"We have decided to take down Fufeng Prefecture first. This way, we can attack Guanzhong and Hexi Corridor at any time.”
Zhangsun Wuji knew that the plan to raise an army was especially important. He only chose to talk about the main points and did not mention the other advantages of Fufeng County.
The main point of his choice was to make Wei Yuancheng and Wei Yuancheng's hearts flutter.
"Windfall County?"
The Underworld Master frowned.
In his opinion, this place was not rich. It was just closer to the Guanzhong area.
It seemed that Cao Feng and the others planned to use this place as a base before plotting against other places. This choice was still somewhat cautious.
"That's a good idea, but how can it be so easy to plot against Guanzhong and the Hexi Corridor?。”
Wei Yuancheng's expression was somewhat serious.
Based on what Fearless said, if they wanted to expand their forces, they would have to face the Sui army in Guanzhong.
It was extremely difficult to conquer Guanzhong under heavy defense. Their second choice was the Hexi Corridor.
The situation here was even more complicated. With the Sui army and the uprising army, they still had to face Tuyuhun. It would not be easy to take down the entire Hexi Corridor.
For a moment, Wei Yuancheng hesitated.
"Even so, with the help of a few uncles, Guanzhong will not be difficult.”
Zhangsun Wuji laughed.
He knew what the other party was worried about, and he spoke with the intention of solving the problem.
"It's not difficult…"
The Underworld Master narrowed his eyes slightly and took another glance at Zhangsun Wuji.
"What should we do?"
After a long silence, Wei Yuancheng glanced at Gao Shilian. This good friend of his seemed to be inclined to support Cao Feng. Should he reconsider?
"Do the two of you have an answer?"
"Phew…"
Wei Yuancheng retracted his gaze and took a sip of tea.
"It's not impossible for us to join, but we need a reason that we can't refuse.”
The Underworld Master crossed his arms and raised his head.
"That's right. At least let us see the Cao family's strength.”
Wei Yuancheng thought for a moment and added.
"It's alright."
Upon hearing this, Zhangsun Wuji heaved a sigh of relief. This meant that there was still a possibility of negotiation. It was better than the other party rejecting him directly.
"Uncles, how should we show our strength so that you can be completely at ease?”
Zhangsun Wuji asked.
"Simple. Don't you want to take down Windfall County first?”
Then, Wei Yuancheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Could it be that Uncle means that we can just take down Fufeng County?”
Gao Xing, who was sitting next to him, said subconsciously.
"How can it be so easy?"
Zhangsun Wuji shook his head and thought to himself.
"No, after you take down Fufeng Prefecture, you can attack Guanzhong and Hexi Corridor.”
Wei Yuancheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
"We won't make things difficult for you. As long as you take down the Hexi Corridor, or the surrounding areas of Guanzhong, you can prove your strength.”
Wei Yuancheng didn't care about the entire pass.
This was the core area, heavily guarded by the Sui army. It would be difficult for Cao Feng to occupy Guanzhong.
"I agree."
the Underworld Master said.
"That's good."
Gao Shilian had no objections to this. Since he wanted the support of these families, he had to take out some chips to let them see hope.
Otherwise, why would these families take the lives of their entire families to gamble with you?
Thus, Wei Yuancheng's conditions were more reasonable.
If he didn't act as the middleman, the two of them would have rejected him directly. After experiencing so much, they generally wouldn't bet their treasures on a force that had just started to raise an army.
Moreover, Feng 'er was indeed a little young.
"Deal."
At this point, Zhangsun Wuji stopped wasting time.
"Alright."
Wei Yuancheng and the Underworld Master replied in unison.
"Alright, it's getting late. It's time for us to leave.”
Then, the two of them stood up.
"Wuji, Xing Dong, go send your two uncles off.”
Gao Shilian also stood up and said.
"Yes."
Zhangsun Wuji and Gao Xing sent Wei Yuancheng and the others to the side door.
"I look forward to good news from you.”
Wei Yuancheng said before he left.
After that, the Crown Prince boarded the carriage and left the Gao Manor.
As for Zhangsun Wuji, he returned and hurriedly said a few words to his uncle. Then, he hurriedly left the Gao Manor. He wanted to bring the news back as soon as possible.
They could save as much time as possible to launch the attack faster. They could take down Fufeng Prefecture first and formulate the next strategy to target the Hexi Corridor and other places.
After all, the speed at which they took down the enemy was also related to their strength.
The faster they moved, the higher the possibility of Wei Yuancheng and the other families joining them.
“......”
On this day, the originally peaceful Li Residence suddenly became lively.
There were many carriages parked in front of the mansion, and many Li family servants carried boxes out of the mansion.
In the end, he placed these boxes into the carriage. From the looks of it, the Li family was planning to leave Guanzhong.
Earlier, he was supposed to take up his post in Taiyuan, but because of Li Xiu Ning and Cao Feng's engagement banquet, it was delayed until now.
Now that everything had been settled, he could not delay his appointment in Taiyuan any longer. When he was packing up, the Li family walked out.
"Although we are going to Taiyuan this time, Daxing City cannot be empty.”
Looking at the busy crowd, Li Yuan said with his hands behind his back.
The Li family had a part of their business here. In addition, the news here would be more well-informed. The people left here were equivalent to the Li family's eyes and ears.
This would be of great benefit to the Li family in the future.
"I know."
All three of them responded.
"Jiancheng, follow me to Taiyuan.”
Li Yuan turned around and looked at his eldest son.
"No, I can't just stay in Guanzhong like this.”
Li Shi Min frowned.
Since his father had brought his elder brother along, he and his third brother, Li Yuanji, would most likely stay in Daxing City.
Actually, it wasn't that there were no benefits to staying here.
The people who stayed behind could be in charge of the Li family's affairs in Daxing City. It could be considered a kind of experience, but he did not want to do so.
"Father, I want to go with you too. I don't want to stay in this sad place.”
Li Shi Min immediately stepped forward and said.
"I see…"
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment. The Cao family was in Daxing City, and so was the Gao family.
If his son Shi Min stayed, he would inevitably see Cao Feng and the others in the future. It might not be a bad thing to bring him away.
"Alright, you follow me to Taiyuan."
Thinking of this, Li Yuan agreed to the second son's request.
"Father, since Second Brother is going to Taiyuan, I can't do anything here alone.”
Li Yuanji hurriedly said.
Since his sworn enemy did not want to stay, there was definitely no point for him to stay. He might as well go against his second brother with his eldest brother.
