Chapter 358: News from the North, Agreeing to the Expedition

"Your Majesty, why not give it a try?"

"What if the Crown Prince truly has a way to resolve this matter?"

"If the Xiongnu can truly be resolved, then the Great Wall won't need to be built either!"

"If this action succeeds, it would be a permanent solution to the problem!"

General Zhang Han received Ying Ying Zi Ye's look and also voiced a suggestion.

He felt this plan was quite good.

But the premise was that the Crown Prince truly had a plan.

Otherwise, this action might harm the Crown Prince.

Qin Shi Huang's brows were tightly furrowed.

He lowered his head, deep in thought.

This boy had great strength; if he truly had a plan.

Perhaps he could really solve the problem once and for all.

As long as he instructed General Meng Tian to protect him well, it didn't seem impossible.

Qin Shi Huang was somewhat tempted.

After all, the Xiongnu were also a thorn in his side.

If this thorn could be removed, the territory of Great Qin could expand quite a bit more.

He could plant the black flags of Great Qin all over the entire Xiongnu territory!

Most importantly, the Great Wall would not need to be built anymore, saving wealth and effort.

"Report—!"

Outside the main entrance, an urgent voice came.

A soldier ran in quickly.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

"Urgent report from the north!"

The soldier knelt before Qin Shi Huang and presented a bamboo tube with both hands.

Upon hearing it was an urgent report, Qin Shi Huang hurriedly took the bamboo tube.

Ying Ying Zi Ye smiled silently; this was truly a divine assist.

He guessed it must be the plundering incident.

Otherwise, if there were no major event, General Meng Tian would not have sent someone to deliver an urgent report.

The content was nothing more than wanting Brother Zheng to order an attack or pursuit of the Xiongnu.

After Qin Shi Huang saw the content on the paper.

His expression changed abruptly.

"Your Majesty, has something happened?"

General Zhang Han felt that something was amiss upon seeing His Majesty's expression.

"See for yourself!"

"Deceiving people too much!"

A cold, murderous aura radiated from Qin Shi Huang.

His eyes also turned cold.

General Zhang Han took the paper, and after seeing the content on it.

He was trembling with rage.

"Your Majesty, this general requests to go to battle!"

"This general will definitely slaughter all the Xiongnu!"

Seeing General Zhang Han's reaction, Ying Ying Zi Ye also curiously took the paper.

The content on the paper was very simple.

Two days ago, the Xiongnu bypassed the Great Wall and plundered nearly two thousand people.

The villages along the route the Xiongnu passed were all slaughtered, burned, and looted!

Even the rats were not spared.

This was truly excessive.

"The Three-All Policy?"

"Very well, you bunch of dogs, you have thoroughly angered me."

Ying Ying Zi Ye gripped the paper tightly with both hands.

These Xiongnu were bullying them too much; if they couldn't be crippled in advance.

A Xiongnu Empire would appear in the future.

The reason the Xiongnu were able to become strong was because Great Qin had been at war for years.

The Xiongnu hid in the vast grasslands, developing stealthily, and slowly became strong.

He held a fire of rage in his heart.

How could the people of Great Qin be bullied by the Xiongnu like this?

The National Destiny System had reminded him that the Xiongnu had plundered thousands of Great Qin people.

Originally, he thought it was just thousands of people being captured as slaves.

If they were in time, perhaps they could still be saved.

But now General Meng Tian's letter said it was nearly two thousand people!

And everywhere they passed, everything was burned, looted, and slaughtered.

These dogs, they even slaughtered those they couldn't take away.

One could imagine what kind of fate the people of Great Qin would face once they fell into their hands.

"Father Emperor, I request to go to battle!"

"I will definitely capture these Xiongnu!"

"Let them be slaves for eternity, building various projects for Great Qin!"

Ying Ying Zi Ye's voice was resonant and powerful, with a hint of anger.

Qin Shi Huang looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye with some surprise.

"What are your chances of success?"

Qin Shi Huang thought for a moment, and some decisions were made in his heart.

Ying Ying Zi Ye was shocked upon hearing this; it seemed Brother Zheng was prepared to let him go to battle.

"Father Emperor, if you let me go to battle, I don't have ten out of ten certainty."

"But I have at least seven out of ten certainty!"

Qin Shi Huang looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye in surprise.

Seven out of ten certainty?

Was he that confident?

"Are these words true?"

"A gentleman does not speak in jest!"

"Good! Then this time I will let you lead the expedition and properly dampen the arrogance of the Xiongnu!" ===== CHAPTER 360 =====
