Ying Zheng frowned slightly.
He had never thought about this before.
In his heart.
The Bai Yue was once a subsidiary of the Chu Country. After the Qin Dynasty destroyed the Chu Country, the Bai Yue naturally belonged to Great Qin, and the people of the Bai Yue were naturally Great Qin's subjects.
Now that the Hundred Yue did not submit, they would conquer.
To wipe out those who do not submit.
However, Ying Che's inner thoughts made Ying Zheng hesitate.
What exactly did he want to do with the Bai Yue?
Was he dissatisfied with the Hundred Yue's disloyal heart and wanted to make the Hundred Yue bow down to Qin?
Or did they want to completely bring the Yue into Great Qin's territory and make the people of the Yue become Great Qin's subjects?
But this hesitation only lasted for less than a breath in Ying Zheng's mind.
What he wanted was the four seas, the land of the king, the shores of the land, and the subjects of the king.
He wanted them all!
The land was important, and so were the people.
Everything in the Baiyue Land should belong to Qin.
Ying Che looked at Great Qin's soldiers who were chatting fervently and muttered to himself.
With Qin Shi Huang's personality, there was a high chance that it would be 'uh',' uh','uh'.
However, conquering was easy, but it was easier said than done to make the Yue completely submit. This was not something that could be achieved overnight.
Conquering the Hundred Yue is to fight with heaven, earth and man.
Heaven and earth were the main cause.
There was this kind of miasma, poisonous gas, and all kinds of malaria over there. If one was not careful, they would die. In this unfamiliar environment, it was not something that could be fought with just bravery.
Great Qin's soldiers were mostly northerners.
They were not used to the hot climate of the south at all and could easily contract diseases. If they caused a plague, then the gains would not make up for the losses.
Moreover, the Yue soldiers were familiar with their surroundings, and they fought as they ran. Great Qin's soldiers were like headless flies, unable to touch the enemy at all. In such a situation, how could the Qin army suffer few casualties?
Even if the First Emperor was willing to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of soldiers to take down the Yue, how would he govern the Yue afterward?
After many years of war, the Bai Yue Tribe had a deep enmity with Great Qin.
It was difficult to calm down in a short period of time.
In order to maintain the stability of the Bai Yue, they were destined to continue to station the army in the Bai Yue.
The daily rations of these hundreds of thousands of soldiers were a huge expenditure, and they still had to guard against the Bai Yue tribe's rebellion from time to time.
Was it really worth it to pay such a high price to occupy a land that had a deep grudge against Great Qin?
Ying Che shook his head.
He felt that it was not worth it.
Of course.
He didn't mean that expanding his territory wasn't worth it.
It was just that this method was not desirable.
The price was too high.
Using hundreds of thousands of casualties and millions of rations to conquer a place that was filled with hatred towards Great Qin was simply too much of a loss, and it was quite troublesome to govern.
Moreover, in history, Zhao Tuo was independent in the south.
He looked down horizontally.
It was not a good idea to force the Yue to return to Qin.
It even seemed to be a mistake.
Ren Xiao said,"
"Your Majesty, only by subduing the Yue will they completely return to Qin.”
"This subject is willing to lead 300,000 troops to pacify the Bai Yue.”
"A single battle will determine the Yue!"
"Completely recapture the Bai Yue."
Zhao Tuo added,
"Great Qin's soldiers have been recuperating for a few years and have been reborn. With the experience of the last defeat, they will definitely be able to take back the Yue rebels in one fell swoop.”
"I am willing to be the vanguard!"
“……”
Hearing the high-spirited requests from the generals, Ying Che couldn't help but snort coldly.
He was speechless.
What do you generals know?
Please fight, please fight.
You sit high in the middle every day, how would you know the difficulty of conquering the Yue?
If he wanted to completely deal with the Yue, he had to implement the King's Enlightenment!
Let the Yue be loyal to Qin!
'The King's Enlightenment.'
Hearing this, Qin Shi Huang frowned.
Although he was very curious about this solution, Ying Zheng did not ask about it. Instead, he just swept his eyes across the hall, trying to find out who had spoken the truth.
Based on his tone and tone, he quickly shifted his gaze to the dozen or so princes in the hall.
If the generals in the hall knew the truth, they would definitely say it out loud. As for Li Si and the others, they did not know so much and would not hide anything.
Right now, the imperial court was still very open about what they wanted to say.
The only ones who didn't dare to speak the truth and only dared to complain in their hearts were these princes.
Most of them only had the right to participate in politics and not the right to discuss politics.
Therefore, it was most likely.
Ying Zheng first looked at Fu Su.
But then, he shook his head slightly.
It couldn't be Fu Su.
Ying Zheng was very sure.
Fu Su might have the heart to do so, but he did not have the guts. Even in his heart, he would never dare to disrespect himself.
He knew Fu Su very well. Fu Su was too afraid of him!
Ying Zheng then looked at Huhai.
He also shook his head.
It couldn't be Huhai.
Huhai did not have such a benevolent heart. He had always been studying the law, and his way of doing things was also inclined towards the Legalism. He was cold-blooded and heartless, so it was impossible for him to think so far ahead.
If it wasn't Fu Su or Huhai, then who was it?
Gongzi Gao, Gongzi Jianglu, Gongzi Ronglu, or Gongzi Che…
Ying Zheng shifted his gaze to the other princes.
After a fruitless search, Ying Zheng closed his eyes and said,"
"It's imperative to take the Bai Yue in the south."
"However, Great Qin had already paid a heavy price for the defeat last time.”
"Now that Great Qin has a strong army and abundant rations, we can't make the same mistake again. However, after we conquer it, how should we govern it?”
"Also,"
"Fusu, as princes, you should also share your thoughts on conquering South Yue.”
"Fusu, you go first!"
Fu Su stepped forward.
Ying Zheng nodded slightly.
He wanted the princes to speak, partly to test them, and partly to find out who had secretly spoken.
