Li Si organized his words and said,""Now, in the entire world, there is only one country left. However, after this minister's investigation, the strength of Qi has gradually become clear.”
"How many troops does the Qi Kingdom have? How long can the rations support these troops?”Ying Zheng's eyes lit up as he immediately asked.
"The Qi Kingdom has at most five hundred thousand soldiers, and hoarding rations can only consume them for a year!”Li Si replied.
Ying Zheng was overjoyed." In that case, Qi is far inferior to our Great Qin."”
Ever since the Great Qin left Hangu and wanted to destroy the six countries, the task of gathering intelligence from the other countries fell to Li Si.
Naturally, Ying Zheng believed Li Si's information without a doubt.
"You're really the chief justice of the Supreme Court. You could investigate the overall strength of Qi Country in such a short period!”Zhao Gao took the opportunity to suck up to Li Si.
As an internal minister of Ying Zheng, Zhao Gao was able to sit on the position of the Chief Minister of the Central Carriage Prefecture, so he knew the effect of having a good relationship with both sides.
The fact that Li Si, who was originally a disciple of Lu Buwei, could be promoted to the position of the Chief Justice of the Great Qin Dynasty undoubtedly showed how highly Ying Zheng valued him.
Adding on the fact that Li Si had made many contributions in the process of Qin destroying the six countries, Zhao Gao knew that once Great Qin truly unified the world, Li Si's status would be even higher!
The current Prime Minister Kui Zhuang was already old and would definitely retire in a few years.
It was time to vacate the position of Prime Minister.
Li Si was the most suitable candidate in Zhao Gao's mind to take the position of Prime Minister.
It had to be said that serving by Ying Zheng's side had allowed Zhao Gao to figure out Ying Zheng's thoughts very clearly.
Li Si's official position was just as Zhao Gao had expected. After unifying the world, he successfully became the Prime Minister.
Therefore, Zhao Gao wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to build a relationship with Li Si so that he could take care of Li Si when he ascended the throne.
"Not bad!" Li Si ignored Zhao Gao and nodded at Ying Zheng, confirming his words.
Ying Zheng was in a great mood. Li Si's news made him even happier, as if he could see that Great Qin was one step closer to unifying the world.
"In that case, after Li Xin returns to the court, I will directly send an army to attack Qi?”
"Your Majesty, I just said that I thought of a way to take down the Qi Kingdom without bloodshed..." Li Si reminded.
He was already a little jealous, as Ying Zheng kept mentioning Li Xin.
He wanted Li Xin to return to Xianyang immediately and then order him to send troops to Qi.
Wasn't it just destroying the Chu Country?
It was just the bravery of a boorish man, but it actually occupied such a place in Ying Zheng's heart.
Furthermore, the king had sent Wang Ben to reinforce them, so what was the big deal?
At this moment, Li Si selectively forgot the time Li Xin had spent to destroy Chu…
He was also secretly glad that Li Xin was only a general of the unified army and could not threaten his position as a civil official.
Otherwise, he would be a terrifying competitor.
Li Si was an extremely selfish person.
Back then, Han Feizi had come to Qin alone in order to fight for the Han Country's survival.
It was all because Li Si felt that he was a Legalist like him and that staying in Great Qin would threaten his future career, so he killed him…
Ying Zheng smiled awkwardly." I have interrupted you. Please continue, Chief Justice. What is the plan to destroy Qi without bloodshed?"”
"If you can really take down Qi without wasting a single soldier, I will remember your great merit!”
Li Si was delighted. He temporarily put down his jealousy and said,""In my opinion, Your Majesty can make use of Young Master Qi, Tian Chong, who has come to Qin!”
Ying Zheng frowned slightly, feeling a little puzzled.""How is it related to that Tian Chong? Could it be that I can use the son of Qi to destroy Qi?”
" That's right." Li Si chuckled." It's precisely because Tian Chong is the son of the Qi Kingdom that his words have great influence on King Qi.”
"If we can let Tian Chong know the difference between the Qi Kingdom and Great Qin, then directly tell him that Great Qin will attack Qi next and let him go back to Qi Kingdom to persuade King Qi to surrender, Tian Chong will most likely agree!”
After carefully considering it, Ying Zheng said,""Mhm, if Tian Chong can persuade King Qi to surrender, that would naturally be for the best.”
"However, to be safe, I will still send an army to the borders of Qi State to pressure King Qi. If King Qi does not listen to my advice and still wants to resist, I will have the army directly attack the interior of Qi State!”
"If King Qi surrenders, we can also send our army north to deal with King Xi of Yan who is hiding in Liaodong!”
Li Si praised,"My king's move is brilliant!”
" Then it's decided." Ying Zheng clapped his hands and said," Since this matter was proposed by you, then I'll leave it to you. We must do as you said, and let Tian Chong know the difference between Qin and Qi!”
"Yes! I will not disappoint Your Majesty!"
Li Si cupped his hands and accepted Ying Zheng's advice, then turned around and left.
At that moment, a servant walked in and said respectfully to Ying Zheng,""Your Majesty, General Li Xin sent a letter.”
Li Si stopped in his tracks when he heard the servant's words. He also wanted to know what Li Xin would say in the letter.
Ying Zheng's interest was instantly piqued, and he hurriedly asked Zhao Gao to bring the letter to him, and began to read it eagerly.
After a long time.
After reading Li Xin's letter, Ying Zheng's eyes sparkled as he laughed and scolded,""What a good Li Xin. Now that the Qi Kingdom has not been destroyed and the Great Qin has not unified the world, you want to expand the territory for me?”
"Your Majesty, may I ask what General Li Xin's letter is about?”Li Si asked curiously.
"This kid has just finished destroying Chu and is already targeting the Bai Yue!”
"He said that he wanted to help me take down half of the Baiyue and send me a congratulatory gift in advance for unifying the world.”
