Chapter 1122

A general spoke up, curious.

Everyone wanted to know whom His Highness would choose as commander.

After all, the commander would be the one leading them into battle in the future.

This choice of candidate could be described as crucial.

Someone without ability truly couldn't sit in this position.

They wouldn't dare let a mediocre person lead them.

They were afraid of the entire army being wiped out!

Someone glanced at Han Xin out of the corner of their eye.

They felt his chances were quite high.

Under the expectant gazes of the crowd.

Ying Ying Zi Ye extended a finger and pointed at someone in the crowd.

"Let Li Xin be this commander."

"Whether in terms of official rank or nobility, Li Xin is stronger than all of you."

"He is also a general who has experienced large-scale campaigns."

"Letting Li Xin serve as the commander this time is most appropriate."

As soon as Ying Ying Zi Ye finished speaking, everyone looked at Li Xin.

Originally, they had thought His Highness would let Han Xin be the commander.

After all, Han Xin's current abilities were also very outstanding.

Although he was a bit young, he was quite strong in all aspects.

Moreover, many people knew that His Highness thought highly of Han Xin.

They believed this commander position belonged to Han Xin alone.

But who would have thought that things were not as they had imagined.

It seems His Highness is quite fair in his dealings.

Generals like Zhao Tuo were not very familiar with His Highness.

This decision by Ying Ying Zi Ye also made them look at him with new eyes.

Fair, just, and open; he did not abuse the power in his hands.

He knew who was the most suitable person to be commander.

If there was anyone here capable of being commander, then Li Xin was worthy of the title.

Although Zhao Tuo had also participated in the Nanyue war, he was only Ren Xiao's deputy general.

Neither his official rank nor his prestige matched Li Xin's.

Although Li Xin had not led troops into battle for a long time due to some failed matters in the past.

But his experience remained; as long as he led, it likely wouldn't be too bad.

The reason for his failure in the past was simply because he had clashed head-on with the enemy and underestimated them.

The others had no objections to Li Xin taking the commander position.

After all, they felt they were inferior to Li Xin.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your great kindness!"

"But this general cannot shoulder this heavy responsibility."

"Please, Your Highness, choose someone else."

Li Xin stepped out of the ranks and bowed.

He truly had not expected His Highness to let him be this commander.

This trust was not insignificant.

Ever since he failed in the war to destroy Chu after leading two hundred thousand soldiers last time.

He had never led a large army into battle again, only engaging in minor skirmishes.

More than a decade had passed since then.

Time really flies; in the blink of an eye, over a decade has passed.

The generals were stunned upon hearing this.

What is Li Xin doing?

This is such a great honor!

And he's just giving it up like that?

They couldn't understand what Li Xin was trying to do.

This opportunity was too rare.

Others couldn't get such an opportunity even if they wanted it.

Yet here it was with Li Xin, and he had directly abandoned it.

Only a few people knew why Li Xin refused this opportunity.

Wang Li knew the reason, and he could only shake his head and sigh.

"Still haven't walked out of it?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye sighed inwardly, what a pity.

Li Xin did not refute His Highness's words, nor did he offer much explanation.

Ying Ying Zi Ye also knew the reason why Li Xin did not want to be commander.

That war to destroy the state over a decade ago had a huge impact on Li Xin.

At the time, Li Xin was young and vigorous, leading the Qin Army in a wishful attempt to engage the Chu Army in a decisive battle.

Yet he was unable to locate the specific position of the Chu Army's main force.

The Qin Army only had 200,000 men to begin with; the number of troops was already small, yet he had divided his forces prematurely before annihilating the Chu main force.

After dividing the forces, they could not respond to each other from afar.

After dividing the forces, they could not support or assist each other, and could not concentrate their strength for a decisive battle with the Chu Army.

This was the biggest reason for his failure.

It was unexpected that even after so long, he still hadn't walked out of that shadow.

"Then who do you think is suitable to be commander besides yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xin raised his head and scanned the bodies of Han Xin and the other generals.

After pondering for a while, just as he was about to say something.

He was interrupted by Wang Li.

"Hey, hey, hey, General Li, don't count me in."

"I abstain; I have to go back with His Highness."

"You can't just leave me here alone."

"I am His Highness's guard; wherever His Highness is, I must be there too."

Wang Li didn't want to get involved in things here.

Following by His Highness's side was much better than staying in Nanyue.

Unless His Highness also stayed, it was impossible for him to stay.

"However, I do have a candidate I can recommend."

"Hehehe..."

Wang Li cast his gaze toward Han Xin.

It wouldn't be bad to let this kid do it.

This was someone he had brought into the military camp, and also someone His Highness had taken a liking to.

But he couldn't just shout it out directly.

Seeing Wang Li's look, Han Xin understood in an instant.

His heart suddenly began to pound wildly.

Just as Wang Li was thinking about how to introduce Han Xin tactfully.

A voice interrupted Wang Li's train of thought.

"Your Highness, this general also abstains."

"This general only needs to provide assistance." ===== CHAPTER 1124 =====
