Hearing Lu Buwei's question.
Meng Ao said in a serious tone," Since ancient times, surrendered soldiers have been the hardest to deal with. Now that Great Qin has captured so many surrendered soldiers, if we take them in and there is a mutiny on the battlefield, they will pose a threat to Great Qin's elite soldiers. If we treat them as Great Qin's citizens, they are not ordinary citizens but soldiers. If something happens in Great Qin's territory, it will definitely bring disaster to Great Qin.”
"The reason why Lord Wu 'an killed hundreds of thousands of Zhao soldiers in the past was that they could not completely submit to Great Qin.”
"What do you think of this matter, Prime Minister?"
Meng Ao said as he turned to Lu Buwei.
"The method to deal with the surrendered soldiers is actually not difficult.”
"If we let them become elites of Great Qin and fight for Great Qin, there's a risk of mutiny, but if we send them to work within Great Qin and send troops to guard them, it might be possible.”Lu Buwei thought for a moment and said.
"If Great Qin was still the same as before, perhaps this method would work.”
"But the times are different now."
"The ancestor has appeared."
"In the past, when our ancestors appeared, it was often when our Great Qin was in danger of being destroyed that we turned the tide.”
"But now…"
Meng Ao said with a deeper meaning.
"The ancestors came into being, sweeping the world and unifying the world?”
Lu Buwei immediately understood.
"Not bad."
"Great Qin has always been in seclusion in the forbidden area and will not appear for no reason. In the legends of Great Qin, it has always been said that if the ancestor suddenly stopped seclusion, it would be the time for Great Qin to sweep through the world. Of course, this was only spread in Great Qin, and no one knows who spread it.”
"However, I firmly believe in this legend.”
"The birth of our ancestor must be the opportunity for Great Qin to wipe out the various countries and unify the world.”
"Destroying a small country in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and capturing tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers can still disperse the labor of Great Qin and send soldiers to guard it. However, in the future, when Great Qin annihilates all the countries in the world, how many surrendered soldiers will there be? If they were all slaves, would Great Qin still have an army that could fight?”
"This matter has to be resolved, or it will affect the foundation of Great Qin's unification of the world.”
Meng Ao said in a deep voice.
If they continued the strategy of Lord Wu 'an and the God of Slaughter Baiqi, not only would they harm the heavens, but they would also cause the countries of the world to become hostile towards them, causing Great Qin to become even more resistant to unifying the world.
"This matter is indeed a little difficult to handle."
"It's easier said than done to make the surrendered soldiers surrender.”
"However, it's still important to treat them.”
This time, Lu Buwei was stumped. How to deal with the surrendered soldiers? The hatred of destroying a country was not so easy to appease.
"Leave this matter to Zheng 'er."
Just as the two of them were feeling a little worried.
Outside the hall, a figure walked in and said slowly.
Hearing that.
Meng Ao and Lu Buwei came back to their senses, and their expressions became respectful. They immediately bowed respectfully,""Greetings, ancestor."
"Leave the matter of the surrendered soldiers to Zheng 'er. I believe he won't disappoint me.”
"This can be considered a test for him. If he can't even do this well, then he will disappoint me.”Ying Qi said slowly.
"Yes."
Meng Ao and Lu Buwei looked at each other and replied respectfully.
"The Eastern Zhou Empire has been taken, but the Eastern Zhou Empire still has dozens of cities. Once we scare off Han and Wei, we'll immediately take the other cities and make them part of the Great Qin Empire.”
"This matter shouldn't be difficult for the two of you.”
Ying Qi spoke again. Although his tone was calm, there was an unquestionable tone in his words.
"Yes."
The two of them immediately replied.
"Yes."
After saying that.
Ying Qi slowly walked out of the hall and disappeared from their sight.
"Phew."
Ying Qiyi left.
Meng Ao and Lu Buwei both let out a sigh of relief.
Facing Ying Qi.
This gave them an unprecedented pressure. Even though one of them was Great Qin's Great General, who commanded hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and the other was Great Qin's Prime Minister, who was in charge of Great Qin's political affairs, they were all below Great Qin.
But against Ying Qi, this was nothing.
"Facing the ancestors of Great Qin, even the former King Zhaoxiang couldn't compare to this pressure.”Meng Ao sighed.
"The ancestors of Great Qin are really elusive, as if they can come and go as they please.”Lu Buwei said slowly.
"Oh right, are you alright, General? You seemed to have been injured in the battle with Lord Dongzhou.”Lu Buwei asked.
"Fortunately, ancestor took action. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have lost my life.”
Thinking back to how Dong Zhoujun had almost killed him, Meng Ao felt a lingering fear. The taste of death was too unbearable.
"Ancestor must be worried about the Crown Prince. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come personally to conquer a mere Eastern Zhou.”Lu Buwei said.
"After all, he's a junior that the ancestor values. Although it's said to be an experiential learning, his every move must be under the ancestor's eyes. Otherwise, how could the ancestor be at ease when attacking a city and looting a stronghold is so dangerous?”Meng Ao nodded in agreement.
"Alright."
"Since Ancestor has handed the matter of dealing with the surrendered soldiers to the Crown Prince, then there is no need for us to report to the King.”
"En, alright."
"I'll immediately send someone to call the Crown Prince over.”
