Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Wang Ben was shocked.
However, the doubts in his heart remained.
It wasn't that he didn't trust the First Emperor, but it was a military matter that couldn't be careless. Moreover, this concerned the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, so he couldn't be careless.
In his position, he planned his politics.
As a general.
Naturally, he had to fully understand the situation.
Wang Ben hesitated.
He said,"
"I understand Your Majesty's ambitions, but isn't it a bit rash to appoint Zhang Han as the general?”
"I am not doubting Your Majesty's decision.”
"But…"
"I recently went to ask about Zhang Han's situation.”
"Back then, he followed me to participate in the war to destroy Chu and made many contributions. However, in my opinion, his achievements were not very outstanding.”
"And…"
"He doesn't have the experience of commanding ten thousand men in battle.”
"After Great Qin unified, it left the army and entered the internal history.”
"I admit that Zhang Han is very capable."
"But to appoint a man who has already left the army as a general.”
"I'm still a little worried."
Wang Ben was a frank person, so he voiced his doubts directly.
Ying Zheng knew Wang Ben's character very well.
He wasn't angry.
"Do you know where Zhang Han is now?" asked Ying Zheng.”
"He's an army supervisor at Mount Li."
"Commanding tens of thousands of troops and hundreds of thousands of prisoners.”
"Zhen will tell you something else."
"Ever since Zhang Han became the supervisor of Mount Li, there hasn't been a single rebellion or riot in the past five years.”
Hearing this.
Wang Ben's expression changed.
He knew about the situation at Mount Li.
That was the imperial tomb appointed by the First Emperor.
In order to complete the construction of the Emperor's Mausoleum as soon as possible, they recruited strong men.
These people were unruly and could fight at the slightest disagreement. Moreover, the workload at Lishan was very heavy. Many people could not bear it and would choose to escape.
There are even worse cases.
They would directly instigate the people to rebel.
Mount Li had never been stable.
And in the early years, the number of people fleeing from Mount Li every year was as high as several hundred.
Zhang Han was actually able to tame these hundreds of thousands of prisoners, it was indeed very capable.
Ying Zheng continued,"
"It's not difficult to take down the Bai Yue."
"What's difficult is the governance. Very few of Great Qin's Generals are proficient in internal affairs.”
"To deal with the Yue, a general who is proficient in internal affairs and good at planning and resource allocation is far more important than a general who only knows how to fight.”
"Zhen does not care about the gains and losses of a city or a pond.”
"What We care about is whether or not we can keep the Yue in Great Qin's territory forever.”
"If we were to conquer a land of endless strife, then what was the point of me spending years and mobilizing nearly a million troops?”
"Just to add a bloodstained achievement?”
"Zhen is not that vain!"
"And…"
"The war this time is secondary.”
"Spreading Great Qin's righteous actions and the legitimacy of Great Qin's army to let the people of the Yue Kingdom understand Great Qin and feel a sense of belonging to Great Qin is the most important thing.”
"This kind of internal affairs ability is not something that ordinary people can do.”
"The current Great Qin."
"Only Zhang Han can do it!"
Ying Zheng was not exaggerating.
Zhang Han was able to tame hundreds of thousands of vicious prisoners. It was really a show of ability. This wasn't something that ordinary people could suppress. It required extremely strong ability and tactics.
Right now, Great Qin did not send out any Generals, and only Zhang Han could do so!
Wang Ben remained silent.
He thought about it carefully in his mind.
The current generals in the royal court, Ren Xiao, Zhao Tuo, Feng Jie, and the other middle-aged generals, indeed couldn't do it.
Wang Ben's mind wavered.
He didn't want the First Emperor to appoint Li Xin as the main general.
He was mainly worried that Zhang Han was too young, inexperienced, and lacked the experience to command a large scale battle. He was afraid that Zhang Han wouldn't be able to suppress the 300,000 strong army.
If he used people like Li Xin, Ren Xiao, and Zhao Tuo who had prestige in the army, he wouldn't have this worry.
Wang Ben hesitated.
He gritted his teeth and said,"
"I still think that we should consider the choice of the general.”
"Zhang Han doesn't have enough prestige in the army!”
"I'm afraid that he won't be able to convince the masses."
Ying Zheng looked at Wang Ben and shook his head with a smile.
He knew that Wang Ben was thinking for Great Qin, but he didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Wang Ben's serious attitude.
He said,
"Since you're really worried about Zhang Han.”
"Then I will give you a chance to do a field trip.”
"There is still half a month before the army leaves. Zhang Han is currently at Mount Li. I allow you to go to Mount Li and inspect Zhang Han.”
"If he really can't be put in an important position, I'll listen to your suggestion and change the general. How about it?”
Before his voice faded, Ying Zheng seemed to have thought of something.
He continued,
"Forget it."
"I think it's better for me to go to Mount Li to investigate this mission that concerns the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers.”
Wang Ben was about to accept it, but he was stunned when he heard the last part.
？？？
Qin Shi Huang also wanted to go to Mount Li to inspect Zhang Han?
But that was Mount Li?
The burial ground you built for yourself!
Wang Ben hesitated for a moment and asked,"Your Majesty…"
"I've made up my mind!" Ying Zheng glared at Wang Ben fiercely, then said impatiently,""This matter is settled. Zhen still has memorials to review.”
"You can leave first."
Wang Ben hesitated.
However, when he saw the First Emperor looking at him with a fierce gaze, he was shocked.
He could only swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"I will take my leave!"
Watching Wang Ben walk away, Ying Zheng smiled and said,"
"I didn't ask to go to Mount Li, but I was worried that Wang Ben might not be able to take it.”
"I was actually passive and had no choice.”
"Yes."
"That's it."
