Chapter 414

~6 min read 1,059 words

He was still here, and they were asking His Highness to fight.

This kind of thing is definitely best handled by the border defense army.

"Do you two think this general doesn't exist?"

Meng Tian looked at the two with an unfriendly face.

Even grabbing this matter, they were really being disrespectful.

Wang Li and Han Xin stood there bowing.

They only felt that they couldn't hold their faces up; it was too damn embarrassing.

Just now, they were so excited that they forgot Meng Tian was still here.

Grabbing credit in front of a Grand General seemed to be a bit wrong.

But the words had already been spoken.

And couldn't be taken back, so they could only stand there awkwardly without speaking.

"Grand General, how do you think we should do this?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye spoke up to break the awkward atmosphere.

Meng Tian withdrew his gaze from Han Xin and the other.

He saluted Ying Ying Zi Ye and said: "Your Highness, with the immortal artifact telescope, we have seized the initiative."

"We can set a trap and wait for the Xiongnu to come; we will definitely be able to surround and annihilate them all!"

Meng Tian's killing intent was awe-inspiring, his voice cold!

Everyone in the tent felt Meng Tian's cold killing intent.

They didn't know what was wrong with Grand General Meng Tian.

This hatred for the Xiongnu seemed to have already exceeded the normal range.

Looking at the confused crowd, Ying Ying Zi Ye didn't point it out.

Others didn't know, but he knew some things.

The Xiongnu were cruel and lawless; the Great Qin subjects who fell into their hands lived lives worse than death.

Only those who had seen with their own eyes the inhumane things the Xiongnu had done.

Would understand why Grand General Meng Tian hated the Xiongnu so much.

Ying Ying Zi Ye hadn't seen it, only heard of it.

For the time being, he wouldn't comment.

"In that case, Grand General, you lead the main attack, and Han Xin and the others intercept."

"Use the advantage of the telescope to lure the enemy into the encirclement."

Ying Ying Zi Ye thought for a while and issued such an order.

Meng Tian as the main force, Han Xin and the others as support, striving to catch the invading Xiongnu in one fell swoop!

"Understood!"

Several people bowed and saluted.

"Your Highness..."

Seeing Xiao He glanced at Meng Tian, wanting to speak but stopping.

"What is it? Speak."

Ying Ying Zi Ye also noticed Seeing Xiao He's abnormality.

He thought to himself that he was worthy of being Seeing Xiao He; he was truly a good civil official and strategist.

Seeing Xiao He saw that Meng Tian's killing intent toward the Xiongnu was too heavy.

He had heard from Wang Li that His Highness's original intention was to capture the Xiongnu if possible.

"Should those Xiongnu be killed or captured?"

"That, of course, is to kill them all!"

As soon as Seeing Xiao He finished speaking, Meng Tian's cold words came out.

He didn't want to keep these disgusting Xiongnu.

"They cannot all be killed."

Ying Ying Zi Ye shook his head, rejecting Meng Tian's proposal.

"Your Highness... why can't they all be killed?"

Meng Tian looked directly at Ying Ying Zi Ye, looking like he would disobey orders if they didn't agree.

Ying Ying Zi Ye didn't flinch at all, and also stared at Meng Tian like this.

"I will only say this once, I hope the Grand General can keep it in mind."

"Great Qin has already disbanded all corvée laborers and convicts, and they have all returned home."

"The four major projects of Great Qin have all stopped."

"Now is the time when we are short of people; if we can capture the Xiongnu, then try to capture them."

"If you really can't capture them, then consider killing them all!"

"Capturing them is not for them to enjoy blessings, but to restart the construction of the four major projects!"

"The four major projects were only temporarily stopped; it will be fine to change to a group of people to build them."

"You hate them, I can understand this, but is it better to kill them or let them build the four major projects for Great Qin for the rest of their lives?"

"You must consider it carefully, don't let this young master be disappointed."

Ying Ying Zi Ye had already said what needed to be said.

He no longer paid attention to Meng Tian, but gave him time to consider.

The Xiongnu were still dozens of li away.

It would take some time for them to reach the Great Wall, so the time was still sufficient.

As for what Meng Tian would do, it depended on his choice.

If he still insisted on slaughtering the Xiongnu.

Then Ying Ying Zi Ye wouldn't be so easy to talk to.

Then he would also advise Brother Zheng to let someone else sit in this Grand General's position.

He dared to say such things, which proved he had the certainty.

He could easily make Meng Tian unable to be this Grand General.

Han Xin, Wang Li, and the others also realized the seriousness of this matter.

They all stood on the side without a word.

Watching their noses and hearts, not daring to speak more.

Shangqing Meng Yi looked at Meng Tian anxiously.

At this time, he must not offend His Highness.

"Brother, be cautious!"

Shangqing Meng Yi reminded him.

Hoping his brother wouldn't be impulsive and ruin his future.

Meng Tian ignored Shangqing Meng Yi.

His face was blue and white.

Standing there for a long time without a word.

He finally understood.

If he didn't execute the order.

The Crown Prince would replace him as Grand General.

Although it wasn't explicitly stated.

But the meaning was revealed between the lines.

He had never thought about letting the Xiongnu go.

It was because their evil deeds had completely enraged him.

This was something every soldier who had been to the vast grassland knew.

The Great Qin subjects plundered by the Xiongnu were not treated as humans at all.

The Great Qin subjects who were plundered were made to do hard labor, working day and night.

Sleeping in sheep pens, treating people like sheep. ===== CHAPTER 416 =====
