Ying Zheng wants to successfully ascend the throne at the age of retirement, so he is now starting to plan to clean up the surrounding countries. When Ying Feiyu comes to power, Great Qin will have a vast territory and will not be bullied by foreign enemies.
However, Ying Feiyu pouted the whole time, looking dissatisfied.
This will make all the generals and old guys happy.
Leading the army to annihilate the Qiang people, what a great military achievement it is!
Future generations will benefit from it!
"You really don't want to be the commander-in-chief and lead the army to conquer the Qiang?"
Ying Zheng deliberately made a fierce face and turned to ask the young lady.
"Father, don't worry, I will definitely not go!"
Ying Feiyu still had the same attitude of indifference.
He had made all the excuses he could find, but even if this old guy was determined to conquer the Qiang, there was nothing he could do.
But if he wants to take the lead, there is no way!
With the current strength of Da Qin, the Qiang people are not a problem at all.
If he leads his troops in triumph, won't it give Ying Zheng an excuse to pass the throne?
Therefore, he is going to lower his sense of existence, do less things that stand out in the future, and save more money.
Throughout the ages, money in hand has been the most important thing.
Even if this old guy has to ask him to take over the throne in the future, he can still be more casual if he has money in hand, and does not have to spend a penny to ask the Ministry of Household Affairs for a penny.
"Okay! You have all heard it. His Royal Highness is the one who doesn't want to go. It's not because I don't allow it, haha...!"
However, after it was confirmed that Ying Feiyu would not go on the expedition, Ying Zheng not only did not have any worries, but actually laughed happily.
"Yes, yes, we all heard it!"
"Yes! As the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness is indeed not suitable for an expedition, so let us go!"
"Well! The state affairs are busy, and His Royal Highness has to stay in Xianyang to help His Majesty handle government affairs. Leave the expedition to us...!"
The ministers were very cooperative and nodded repeatedly.
Ying Feiyu immediately rolled his eyes at several people.
These guys really know how to pick up nice things to say.
Although he didn't go on an expedition, he didn't say he would stay in Xianyang to handle government affairs?
Wouldn't it be nice to have that time to lie down? Doesn't he smell good?
"Haha! Conquering the Qiang is a big deal. Who do you think...is the most suitable person to choose?"
Ying Zheng glanced at the ministers, and finally his eyes fell on Xiao Zhengtai.
During the past three years, many of the ministers present had become very close to Ying Feiyu, and Ying Feiyu knew them well.
The reason why he is allowed to choose generals is to test him and see how he sees people!
When you become an emperor in the future, you must have a unique vision and place the right candidates in the right positions. Only in this way can they realize their greatest potential!
"Let me choose?"
Ying Feiyu pointed to his nose in surprise.
Good guy, are you starting to train yourself now?
"I, I, choose me...!"
The veterans all pointed at themselves and winked crazily at Ying Feiyu.
Ying Feiyu glanced back and forth among them but said nothing. The anxious old guys' palms were all sweaty and their necks were almost stretched out!
After a few back and forth, Ying Feiyu smiled calmly and bowed his hand to Ying Zheng, "Father, I think that the ministers and generals have worked hard and made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty...!"
Before Ying Feiyu could finish speaking, the veterans puffed up their chests proudly and smiled like flowers.
"Now that our country, Qin, is strong and its people are prosperous, and several of its ministers and generals are getting older, they should stay in Xianyang to enjoy their blessings. It is not appropriate to go outside the Qiang Great Wall and endure the sun and wind! Therefore, I suggested that this opportunity should be given to young people. People, let young people go outside the Great Wall to experience and gain experience!”
The more Ying Feiyu spoke, the more the smiles on the faces of the veterans faded, and finally their brows knitted together and their facial features became tangled together.
His Royal Highness is so cruel! Didn't they just say a few words for His Majesty? Are you not going to let them go to war?
"Um... Your Highness, I think you are quite strong now. Not to mention the Qiang people, you can fight all the way to the Mauryan Dynasty without any problem!"
"Yes, yes, me too. I get up early every day to practice martial arts, and I never stop. Although it is not as strong as His Highness the Prince's strength of 10,000 kilograms, a few hundred kilograms is still no problem!"
"Although I am about to retire, my mind is clear and my body is healthy. I will have no problem being the commander-in-chief...!"
As soon as they heard that young people would be admitted, several old guys quickly explained, patting their chests to prove that there was nothing wrong with their health. Some even asked the imperial doctor to come over and prove it.
"Several ministers and generals, you may have misunderstood. What I mean is not that you are not in good health, but that you should stay in Xianyang to enjoy your life and let young people experience it, such as my future brother-in-law Wang Li. , as well as the two brothers Meng Yun and Meng Yu, Zhang Tiancheng, the son of Zhang Shangshu, and the grandson of Feng Shangshu...!"
Ying Feiyu counted in detail the young masters who came to see him a while ago.
There is no way, who has already agreed to them!
If there is a war, let them go!
"Um?"
After hearing these names, the veterans suddenly raised their brows.
Isn't this your own child?
It turns out that His Highness the Crown Prince said he wanted to leave opportunities to young people, was he trying to give opportunities to his own children?
What a great feeling!
They compete for military honors in order to protect their wives and children and make life easier for their descendants.
Otherwise, when they are young and have gray hair, why would they sit here and argue with their faces red and thick necks?
But even so, the benefits for future generations are indirect, which is not worth the direct military merits?
"Ahem... Um... Your Majesty, although I get up early every day to practice martial arts, the weather has been cold recently and I have contracted the wind and cold. I am afraid that I will not be able to recover for a while. We should let the young people conquer the Qiang on our behalf!"
"Yes, yes, I'm old and my thinking is clear, but this long journey is enough for an old minister to drink a pot of wine. Let's let X's grandson be loyal to the country!"
"The general has a thousand pounds of power in his hands, but my wife is already six months pregnant, so I have to stay at home. Let my incompetent son go to the battlefield to train...!"
After learning that the young people Ying Feiyu mentioned were his descendants, the veterans immediately changed their minds without waiting for a moment.
When they first learned that the Qiang were about to be conquered, they told their descendants all night that even if they were to be the leading soldiers, they would still have to squeeze into the military camp.
But looking at the current situation, it is necessary to reuse these children, which is a huge good thing!
How can they, the old ones, compete with their own children for military glory?
Of course, you can retreat as far as you can!
Seeing how quickly these old guys changed their tune, Ying Feiyu couldn't help but laugh!
"Well! It's okay for Wang Li. I've been practicing by your side and can indeed be appointed as a general. But the others still have little experience on the battlefield. I'm afraid there will be some mistakes on the battlefield!"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng thought for a moment and shook his head.
"Father, Meng Yun, Meng Yu and others have all followed my sons on expeditions before. Moreover, with the existence of thermal weapons, it is absolutely no problem to be a vanguard! As for the commander... you can choose someone else!"
The commander of an army must not only be brave and resourceful, but also be thoughtful and considerate of the entire army.
In this regard, Meng Yun and others are indeed a little behind.
But among young people, there is indeed one person who can take on this important task!
