Ying Zheng's words stunned everyone. Letting Li Xin follow Mu Wu, which meant that he had tacitly agreed to let Li Xin become Mu Wu's general. This was simply too unbelievable for Ying Zheng, who had always held the power in his hands!
Because of this, Mu Wu's position in Ying Zheng's heart once again shocked Zhao Gao, Li Si, and the others. What kind of ability did this Second Prince have to make Ying Zheng value him so highly?
They, and even Mu Wu, did not know that the fact that Mu Wu had subdued Han Yue had truly established Mu Wu's position in Ying Zheng's heart. After all, the fact that Mu Wu had subdued Han Yue showed that Mu Wu was similar to Ying Zheng in some aspects!
Not to mention all these, after hearing Ying Zheng's words, not only Zhao Gao and the others, even Mu Wu was stunned for a moment. How could his father, a madman who craved for power, openly appoint a general to follow him?
However, he was relieved. Although Li Xin had some ability, he was still far from being able to compete with Meng Tian, Meng Yi, and Wang Ben, let alone Wang Jian and Meng Wu.
The key is that the military power of the Great Qin has always been in the hands of Ying Zheng. There is no military general at all. Is it good to use it?
"Your son thanks your father."
"Yes." Ying Zheng nodded.
Li Xin also retreated to Mu Wu's side in a prisoner's uniform. The splints on his hands had been removed. Li Xin secretly looked at the Second Young Master who had saved his life, the once useless Young Master.
He had a thin body, a well-defined face, and a pair of eyes that looked ordinary. No matter what, he was not a good-for-nothing. He did not know how the rumors in the past had spread.
In Li Xin's heart, those words about Mu Wu being a waste were just rumors. It had to be said that saving his life was indeed a great kindness in this era. Li Xin had already started to have a sense of recognition for Mu Wu from the bottom of his heart.
"This failure to attack the Chu is a humiliation to the empire. The empire must return this humiliation! Therefore, I plan to launch a second war against Chu after this season's grain collection!”
"However, as the saying goes, the army is a matter of national importance. As for how we should attack Chu this time, you all have to come up with a plan.”
Ying Zheng cast a cold glance at them. Destroying the Chu Country would greatly shorten the time it would take for Great Qin to unify the world, so this was also a top priority. He looked at Li Si and the others who remained silent, and a trace of patience gradually disappeared from his eyes.
He knew very well that it was not that Li Si and the others did not have a strategy. It was just that they had not been able to defeat Chu for long, and now they were coming for a second time. They had some objections in their hearts, but they could not say it out loud, so they remained silent.
Gradually, Ying Zheng became a little dissatisfied. At this time, he saw Mu Wu standing at the back of the troop, with his head lowered, as if he was in a daze. He became even more dissatisfied. Could it be that this guy was a little complacent?
"Muwu, do you have any objections?" he asked. Tell me."
"Ah?" Mu Wu was stunned.
Li Xin, who was standing at the side, saw Ying Zheng's face turn completely dark, and he immediately felt a little anxious. Meanwhile, Zhao Gao was also a little excited, but he was still keeping an eye out for Mu Wu. This Mu Wu had turned danger into safety time and time again, and he could not let his guard down.
Li Xin hurriedly repeated Ying Zheng's words softly into Mu Wu's ears.
Mu Wu finally understood. He was not really distracted, but was thinking about how to make Ying Zheng agree to let him participate in this war. At this moment, he saw that Ying Zheng was a little dissatisfied, so he hurriedly stood up.
"Father, I'm not distracted. I'm just thinking about how to deal with the Chu army."”
"Oh? Tell me, if you speak nonsense, I will punish you!”Ying Zheng's words carried a hint of knowledge. He only said that Mu Wu would be punished, but he did not say what kind of crime he would be punished for. Even if Mu Wu's words were really not up to the mark, he could still lift him up high and put him down gently.
Although he was very angry about Mu Wu's absent-mindedness, he could not help but feel that Mu Wu had been pleasing to Ying Zheng's eyes recently, so he was no longer angry. Moreover, in the bottom of Ying Zheng's heart, there was indeed a glimmer of hope that Mu Wu could say something that would allow his great cause of conquering Chu to proceed smoothly.
"Father, Xiang Yan has led the Chu army to defeat the Empire. The morale of the Chu army must be high, so it is not wise to send troops now.”
Before Mu Wu could finish his words, Ying Zheng's face had turned gloomy again.
This time, when he heard that it was unwise to send troops, his anger did rise.
"However, if the strategy is correct, the Empire will definitely be able to destroy the Chu Country!”However, Mu Wu did not care about Ying Zheng's expression and continued to speak. Ying Zheng's expression also changed.
Li Xin, who was secretly watching Ying Zheng from behind, also let out a sigh of relief. This Second Young Master was really scary.
"Continue." Ying Zheng said.
"Yes." Mu Wu sorted out his thoughts and continued,"The Chu army is fundamentally inferior to the Empire's army. This can be seen from General Li Xin's overwhelming momentum in the early stages. The reason why they were able to defeat General Li Xin under Xiang Yan's leadership was partly because General Li Xin underestimated his enemy, and partly because they were waiting for fatigue. Therefore, this time, they had to mobilize an army of at least 600,000. On the other hand, as long as the morale of the Chu army was gone, the victory would be theirs!”
"In short, there are eight words: We should avoid his sharp spirit and attack him when he returns!"
"Good!" Ying Zheng stood up and said in a clear voice, his words did not hide his admiration for Mu Wu.
On the other hand, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, and Li Si looked as if they had seen a ghost. Was this really that useless Second Young Master? If you can't write, can't you write? This was clearly nonsense.
"Mu Wu, stay behind. You can all leave first.”
Ying Zheng's following words were like a sledgehammer smashing into everyone's hearts!
