Chapter 1034: Southern Expedition to Baiyue [Subscription*Monthly Ticket Request]

If they really go to Bingzhou and fight face to face, even if Emperor Xuanwu is merciful and doesn't kill them, they won't be able to leave Bingzhou alive.

They all knew how high the prestige of Emperor Xuanwu was in Bingzhou.

There is no need for those people in the court to take action, the wanderers among the people of Bingzhou can prevent them from leaving Bingzhou alive.

"Forget about such things as taunting each other in public, it may lead to a war between the two countries!"

The Qin Foreign Minister felt tired.

It would be fine if you called yourself the First Emperor, Bingzhou could at most pretend not to see it and ignore it. But you are so close to me and attack me so powerfully that Bingzhou can't even pretend not to see it.

If it really doesn't work, you can wait until the unification ceremony is over and the dust has settled. Bingzhou will have no choice but to recognize it.

If we go for it now and attack Bingzhou, in case Bingzhou disagrees, it is very likely that Qin and Bingzhou will go to war just because of the title of emperor.

This is no joke.

"Hehe~ Then take it easy and let him be happy for a few more days!" Ying Zheng also found that he seemed to be really anxious.

Before the dust settles, just start a big battle like this. The scholars will line up from Xianyang to Beiyewangcheng to die for their advice. By then, Bingzhou will have no choice but to fight.

"Your Majesty, I am pleased!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"I told you, don't call me the King, call me Your Majesty the First Emperor!" Ying Zheng frowned.

"Okay, Your Majesty the First Emperor!"

Everyone can only accept it. Sooner or later, they will have to change their ways. Just get used to it first.

As for the history books…never mind, it would be less work to revise them now than to wait until the unification ceremony to revise them uniformly.

"So, how is the discussion on the southern expedition to Baiyue going?" Ying Zheng put away his playful intention.

After Qin conquered the six kingdoms, it took in too many surrendered soldiers from the six kingdoms, many of whom were elite soldiers. If they were released like this, it would cause a huge problem for local stability, so these armies were almost all gathered in one place and guarded by two generals, Yang Duanhe and Wang Ben.

"Old General Wang and Young General Wang declined to lead the troops due to poor health, and Old General Yang Duanhe also declined due to his old age." Guo Wei Liao replied.

As for whether he is ill or not, who knows?

But Wang Jian and Yang Duanhe were really old. As for Wang Ben, he didn't want to go to Baiyue at all. He was getting along well with the Bingzhou Chiyan Cavalry at the border of Yan State, and was tinkering with the armored soldiers who were good at fighting to try to restrain the cavalry.

"Where is Li Xin?" Ying Zheng frowned.

"Digging wild ginseng in Gojoseon." Li Yao held his forehead helplessly.

I don't know who said that hundred-year-old wild ginseng can increase one's strength, and then this unfilial son plunged into Changbai Mountain in Jizi Korea to dig ginseng.

"..." The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth twitched. Are they all so idle now?
It's just that he also ate a lot of wild ginseng that Li Xin ordered people to send back, and since he had eaten the food, it's hard to say anything else.

"Is there any suitable candidate in the National Guard's Office?" Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at the traitor Wei Liaozi, the National Guard who had always been disloyal.

"General Tu Ju, Marquis Buqi and Hanzhong Prefect Ren Xiong are all good candidates." Wei Liaozi replied calmly.

"What does the Prince's Mansion think about this matter?" Ying Zheng did not directly appoint anyone, but suddenly asked about Fusu.

Wei Liaozi and others understood instantly that this meant that Fusu was to lead the troops into battle in order to build momentum for his succession to the throne.

Without great achievements, how would Fusu suppress the Qin soldiers with outstanding military achievements in the future?

"The prince has expressed his willingness to lead the troops to war, but the military headquarters will also be formed by the prince's mansion itself!" Wei Liaozi looked at Ying Zheng hesitantly.

This is not an ordinary army, but an elite army of nearly 500,000 left over from the six countries.

To put it bluntly, if Fusu had a little ambition and followed the example of King Huiwen of Zhao, he might have trapped Ying Zheng in the palace and starved him to death, especially since Xianyang was a capital without city walls. The most frightening thing was that the prince's tutor Zhao Jia was once the prince of Zhao, and he was very skilled in this.

Ying Zheng also thought of this and felt a little scared.

If Fusu really led the troops to the south to conquer the Baiyue, what if Fusu learned bad things from Zhao Jia and became like King Huiwen of Zhao? It seems that Xianyang may not be able to resist.

"Then let Tu Ju lead the troops, Zhao Tuo as the deputy general, and Crown Prince Fusu as the military supervisor, and lead the Crown Prince's personal guards alone as a support." Ying Zheng thought about it. Wouldn't it be easy to conquer Baiyue with an army of 500,000 going south?

Just give it to Fusu to get some military merit.

Of course, one cannot just force it, but also give Fusu a certain degree of autonomy and make known his reputation as the crown prince, so as to win the support of the people.

"Also, let Prince Gao and Prince Jianglu go with them as well!" Ying Zheng thought for a moment and continued.

He was still somewhat worried about letting Fusu go alone, and with the two princes following them, nothing could possibly go wrong!
Li Yao, Wei Liaozi, Dun Ruo and others were silent.

Is there any difference between sending this and not sending it?
All the princes in Xianyang were completely subdued by Crown Prince Fusu.

Even the families behind the princes have been visited by the prince himself. Who would dare to instigate the princes to compete with Fusu for the throne now?

The last person who refused to submit and confronted Crown Prince Fusu had his entire family and livestock killed, except for the person himself who was unharmed.

But is it difficult to kill your entire family and livestock quietly?

"Let's leave it at that for now!" Ying Zheng thought about it and decided that the troops had to be mobilized, but they had to wait until after the unification ceremony.

The heroes who destroyed the six kingdoms will also be rewarded.

This is the most troublesome problem.

There are quite a few people who will be granted the title of marquis. Wang Jian and Wang Ben will definitely be granted the title of marquis, and then Li Xin, Yang Duan and others will not be left behind.

Then my money was gone again!
When Ying Zheng thought of this, he felt extremely painful.

When can the construction of our own Mount Li Mausoleum start normally?

Li Yao saw Ying Zheng's expression change rapidly, and then he looked at her. She immediately knew what Ying Zheng was worried about, and decisively lowered her head and pretended not to see it.

Want money? Impossible.

In the Prince's Mansion, Fusu also received the news, and was asked to lead the Prince's personal guards as a military supervisor to form a separate army to march south to conquer the Baiyue.

"An army of five hundred thousand, are you really not afraid, Your Majesty?" Zhao Jia was a little shocked.

Fusu himself had Chu blood. Not to mention imitating his ancestors and starving the king to death, he could just divide the land and appoint the kings, occupy the State of Chu, and rule it along the Huai River with Xianyang.

"You are stupid. The prince is so young. There is no need to rush for success. As long as the prince proceeds steadily, the entire Qin State will be handed over to him sooner or later." Meng Yi rolled his eyes.

"I'm worried that when the prince returns with a great victory, the King of Qin will be wary of him." Zhao Jia expressed his concerns.

Everything is fine before going to war, but what about coming back?
The 500,000-man army returned victorious. Not to mention the Qin State, even Bingzhou would be panicked.

"If someone else spreads slander..." Zhao Jia continued.

After all, Fusu has to lead the troops to war. Who knows whether the families behind the other princes will think that they are powerful again and rise up to cause trouble.

Meng Yi also hesitated, this was something that had to be guarded against.

As long as Fusu is around, no one dares to move, but who knows if these people are really convinced.
