Chapter 178. The Moon in Qin Dynasty

Bai Qi?

The king’s meaning is to entrust this little guy with important tasks in the battlefield in front of Hangu Pass and let him take charge of his troops.

Is this a bit sloppy?

Mei Changsu and Zhang Yi looked at each other suspiciously. Their impression of Bai Qi was that there were almost no other words except bloodthirsty.

In all the battles that Bai Qi participated in, the enemy suffered heavy casualties, and even Bai Qi never showed mercy to the enemy's wounded soldiers.

Naturally, Bai Qi has his own considerations.

In the Warring States Period, when the theme of "farming and stationing" was mainly used, sometimes people had to kill people to maintain their livelihood and national destiny.

There are no more than tens of thousands of wounded soldiers in each battle. Could it be that Qin State needs to help?

After receiving the support, a large amount of food is needed, and it is not guaranteed that all these surrendered troops will be used by the Qin State. What if they rebel?

It seems that under such a situation, killing them is the only option.

Bai Qi is not a mistake! Mei Changsu and Zhang Yi don’t know Bai Qi’s life, so they show more doubts. After all, Bai Qi has never been the main general before.

But whenever Ying Si mentioned these two words, his heart beat faster and even stood there in a daze.

Bai Qi, that is the god of killing! In Chinese history, the general with the highest military attainments, even after his generation, Ying Si thought he was even more awesome than Zhuge Liang and Huo Qubing.

"The king has thought about it?"

Looking at Ying Si's firm eyes, Mei Changsu and Zhang Yi knew that Ying Si had already made a conclusion on this matter.

Regardless of whether they agree or not, Bai Qi is a sure thing.

"Can the king tell me the reason?"

Zhang Yi really wanted to know what Ying Si thought.

Ying Si stood up, held his hands behind his back, chuckled a few times, and then he slowly said: "Two prime ministers, you are all wise people, and you have the wise and exquisite heart of being born to know people, but do you know what I am thinking?"

"Your Majesty is thinking--" Mei Changsu tried to guess Ying Si's thoughts, but Ying Si waved his hand to stop him.

"I am the king of Qin. As a king, it is naturally different from you ministers. You just need to think about how to share my worries."

"But I, I must understand right and wrong, be polite, plan for Qin for generations, and let my subjects praise them to the world."

"So, I have to think about much more than you, such as the dilemma faced by Qin this time."

"I thought it was already difficult for Qin to attack Qin for the five countries, but I didn't expect that this time, Qin would start a war on the third line."

"You can ignore the affairs of Bashu, put them aside and let them die on their own, so the Qin State will not have to bear too much pressure."

"But if I missed this opportunity, is there another chance?

If the country of Bashu Tianfu was a grain silo in Qin, it would inevitably make Qin prosperous."

"Although Chu is a big country, I have always looked down on him. As the largest country in the Warring States Period, I dare not fight for the world. I am not as good as those small countries."

"As for South Korea, I have always thought about which country should be destroyed after Qin goes east, Wei or Han?"

"South Korea was originally very peaceful, because the prince died this time, so it took the national strength to fight me."

"So, Qin must win this battle, so that the nations must know that South Korea has no capital to compete with Qin."

"As for why Bai Qi was chosen as a general, it was because Bai Qi killed him. I wanted Bai Qi to kill all these ignorant Korean bastards."

What Ying Si said made Mei Changsu and Zhang Yi shudder.

The king chose the former army chief not because of his outstanding sergeant talent, but because of Bai Qi's bloodthirsty nature?

"King, killing like this may make all nations afraid of Qin. When the time comes, Qin will be jointly boycotted by the six countries."

While talking, Mei Changsu took another sip of herbal tea, and his mood couldn't calm down for a long time.

After saying that, he was silent for a long time.

Ying Si smiled and asked slowly, "Changsu, do you know how many people will die in each war?"

That's an astronomical figure.

Mei Changsu did not answer because whenever she thought of the scenes of the soldiers tragically dying on the battlefield, Mei Changsu felt sorry for these people.

Ying Si knew that the two of them had not reacted, so he said directly: "As long as the Central Plains fall apart and as long as all the nations are present, the war will never stop, and only the six kingdoms will be destroyed!"

"The six kings are gone, and one in all the world!"

"That was then that I could truly unify the world, and that would be the only way to end this troubled world forever."

Ying Si asked again: "Then do you know how many people died in battle since the Warring States Period?

How much is displacement?

How many families are destroyed?”

Mei Changsu still chose to remain silent. He did count, although it was inaccurate, but he also knew the general numbers.

"If you don't say it, I will tell you."

Ying Si smiled lightly and raised his head slightly, his voice trembling: "There are no less than one million people who died in battle, their families are destroyed, and countless people are displaced. Even in this chaotic world, Yi Zi eats each other and burns himself because of the cold and self-immolation. Therefore, sometimes, sometimes death on the battlefield is not very bad. I kill Koreans more to save them!"

Killing to save people?

Kill one person to save another, then obviously this kind of killing has no reason. After all, who has no right to survive.

But what if one person is killed, one saves a hundred, one kills a hundred and tens of millions of people?

Then killing really becomes meaningful! Ying Si's voice has always been dull, but every sentence is a fact that cannot be debated in this era.

Mei Changsu and Zhang Yi looked at him deeply. At this moment, they knew Ying Si’s ambitions.

"I understand."

Mei Changsu and Zhang Yi stood up, and they felt that the purpose of this trip had been achieved because they had learned about Ying Si's true thoughts.

Destroy the six kingdoms! Qin will destroy the six kingdoms sooner or later. Since there will be a war sooner or later, why should you still care about your reputation among the six kingdoms?

As long as the six countries do not match the rules and they do not have the power to destroy Qin in one battle, then Qin can be arrogant unscrupulously.

"You go down and prepare. The war on the third line will start. Qin will consume a lot of money and raise more food and grass. These will require the hard work of the two prime ministers."

"The front-line battlefield requires generals to lead the troops to kill the enemy. I will hand over the government affairs in Xianyang City to the two prime ministers."

"The day after tomorrow, I will hold a vow to the Lantian Camp. My soldiers of Daqin will make achievements and glorify their ancestors."

The two of them bowed together: "God of Old Qin, let's go to the national crisis together!"

Mei Changsu waved his hand and signaled the two of them to go down.

It was already midnight at this time, which was a bit too late, but Ying Si was not sleepy at all.

He looked at the new palace and there was a full moon.

It seemed like Qin State, and under the dazzling light of Qin State, all the countries seemed dull.
