同地 / Tong

同地 / Tong appears in 《资治通鉴·周纪》17丨韩昭侯和申不害 as the site of a 350 BCE meeting between 秦国 and 魏国. The episode infers that the meeting probably produced some temporary accommodation, because Qin had been pressuring Wei but may not have wanted an endless war.

The source also uses Tong as foreshadowing: twelve years later, 公孙鞅 / 商鞅 dies there. That makes Tong both a diplomatic location in this episode and a future endpoint marker for the 商鞅变法 branch.
