"Thank you for your generous reward, Your Majesty."
Hearing Ying Zheng's reward, Li Xin immediately stood up and bowed to thank him along with Meng Ao and the other three.
In general.
They were all very satisfied with Ying Zheng's reward.
Especially Li Xin and Wang Jian. They were both young before this, and because they did not have many battle merits, they were directly promoted three ranks this time, raising their ranks by a large margin.
Although Wang He didn't get promoted, he knew about it.
His title had almost reached the peak of his life. With his previous achievements, he was still a little far from becoming a marquis.
"No need for formalities. You fought for the country, so these rewards are what you deserve.”
Ying Zheng smiled and said.
"Your Majesty, if the generals bring him back to Xianyang, how will the royal families of Yan, Han, and Zhao deal with him?”
At this moment, Prime Minister Wang Wan stood out and said.
"You don't need to ask me about these things. We should follow the old rules. Kill the males who are close to the king of Yan, Han, and Zhao, and pick one or two beautiful ones to fill the harem. The rest of the people should be settled in a village near Xianyang. Let them earn their own living and abide by the laws of Qin. They can't provoke others for no reason. Send someone to secretly monitor them for a few years.”
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
In the eyes of the monarch, the population was also a resource for the country's development. It could not be easily killed.
"I understand."
Wang Wan nodded.
"Alright, so many things have happened today. Let's end the morning court session like this.”
After that, Ying Zheng started to chase them away.
Thus, the reward for Qin destroying Yan, Han, and Zhao, and annihilating the Qi and Chu allied forces, ended just like that.
A few days later.
Because the net and the Black Ice Platform had both released the blockade of information in this area.
In less than a month, the news of the State of Qin destroying Yan, Han, and Zhao, as well as the Qi and Chu allied forces, spread throughout the world.
The world was shocked.
No one had expected that after confronting the Qin country for hundreds of years, the Yan, Han, and Zhao, who were also part of the Seven Heroes in the past, would be defeated.
It was easily destroyed by the Qin country.
At this point, the number of countries that had been destroyed by the Qin Country had already reached four.
They were Wei, Yan, Han, and Zhao.
Only the Qi and Chu countries were left, struggling to survive.
However, those with discerning eyes could see that the 500,000 Qi and Chu allied army had been surrounded and wiped out by the Qin army at the bank of the Black River, and had already suffered great losses.
With Qin Country's national strength and the combat strength that the army had displayed in these few Country Wars, it was impossible for Qin Country's army to be strong.
It was only a matter of time before they destroyed the Qi and Chu kingdoms.
The King of Qin, Ying Zheng, had the power to unify the world.
No one could stop him.
And Shi Huang spent a year in the destruction of Yan, Han and Zhao, surrounding and annihilating the 500,000 strong Qi and Chu allied army.
This year.
It was the most important milestone for Ying Zheng to conquer the six dynasties and unify the world.
After the Spring Festival.
Two years after the First Emperor.
The Qin country encountered an unfortunate thing.
"What? General Wang He was seriously ill and passed away last night?”
When Ying Zheng, who was in the palace, learned of this, he could not help but feel shocked. He turned his gaze to Zhao Gao, who was reporting to him.
"Yes, Your Majesty, that is indeed the case."
Zhao Gao nodded.
"I heard that General Wang He caught a cold a few days ago. Who knew that he would fall ill and die last night?”
Zhao Gao explained in detail.
Who would have thought that the old General Wang He, who had made great contributions to the Qin Kingdom and helped Ying Zheng destroy Wei and Han, would suddenly pass away?
Ying Zheng thought about it carefully. Wang He was already close to seventy years old.
To be able to live to this age in the pre-Qin period was already extremely difficult.
Although this world was not an ordinary historical world.
There was also the existence of martial arts.
Old General Wang He was a veteran of the Qin Country, and his martial arts skills were not weak.
However, after years of fighting, some of the hidden injuries and chronic illnesses that he usually suffered would probably erupt all of a sudden with this cold, which took the old general's life in an instant.
"Pass on my decree. Old General Wang He has worked hard and made great contributions. Not only did he destroy the two countries for the Qin country, but he also gained the trust of the former king when I ascended the throne. He was appointed as the minister of the country and assisted in supervising the country. He was upright and did not let the power of the country fall into the hands of the country thieves.”
Then, Ying Zheng issued an order.
"Yes."
Zhao Gao's eyes flashed with shock.
A funeral like Marquis Che's was rare even in the entire history of Qin.
Zhao Gao didn't know.
It was just a funeral. It was almost like a blank check. At most, it would cost some money.
In this way, he could win over the hearts of his subjects without having to pay any real price, so why wouldn't Ying Zheng be happy to do it?
A few days later, on the day of General Wang He's burial, he personally appeared to preside over the funeral.
This made countless Qin Country soldiers who served Qin Country even more moved.
He hoped that one day, he would also have such an honor.
And the sudden death of General Wang He.
It was also the beginning of the collective end of a generation of veterans during the era of the former king.
During the reign of the former king, the old general, Duke Zhuang, who was appointed as the minister in charge of the country by the former king, had been sick for the past two years.
Other than entering the palace to attend court meetings once every one or two months, he would usually recuperate in the residence.
It looked like he didn't have much time left.
As for the only old general who was still healthy, Meng Ao.
He was not much younger than Duke Hun and Wang He.
His sideburns were also white. The last time he destroyed Zhao and the Qi and Chu allied forces, it might be the last battle he participated in in this life.
Fortunately, during the first two great wars, Ying Zheng had started to train the younger generation of generals of Qin State, intentionally or unintentionally.
When the entire Qin country heard the news of the old general Wang He dying of illness, they were naturally in mourning and the entire country was in grief.
When the Qi and Chu countries learned of the news of the Qin country's general Wang He's death.
He could not help but secretly heave a sigh of relief.
They thought that after losing such a great general, the State of Qin would not attack them for the time being.
They could still live for a few more years.
They didn't know.
Wang He's life and death.
To the State of Qin, this colossus that had already grown into a terrifying giant beast, it could not have any effect at all.
