Chapter 44

Although Han Xin bowed along with the others, his face showed none of the excitement that Xiao He and the rest displayed; instead, he knelt there expressionless, unknown what he was thinking.

Facing Ying Su felt no anger at this; rather, he stepped forward, took hold of Han Xin's arm first, helped him to his feet, and asked, "Han Xin, is it?"

As Facing Ying Su spoke, those words startled Li Chen beside him!

It was not fear of anything else, but fear that Han Xin might commit an act of disrespect.

One must know that along this journey, Han Xin had been like a silent gourd, hardly speaking a word!

The only thing he seemed interested in was watching ants fight.

If he were to commit an act of disrespect before Facing Ying Su, would that not cause a major incident?

Fortunately, Han Xin was no fool; he knew how to address the Emperor!

At this moment, despite his profound indifference, before the true Emperor, he still respectfully performed the bow:

"Replying to Your Majesty, it is indeed Han Xin!"

Seeing this scene, Li Chen let out a long sigh of relief.

No matter what, as long as he did not commit an act of disrespect, that was all that mattered!

Whether he was polite before him was irrelevant, but before the Emperor, he could not commit an act of disrespect!

Although Li Chen was sighing with relief, he did not notice that even after Han Xin bowed and knelt, his gaze remained vacant.

Still no light shone within!

Even when looking at Facing Ying Su, it was exactly the same!

It seemed Facing Ying Su held no essential difference from anyone else he had ever seen!

It appeared his mind was still occupied with other matters!

However, a single sentence from Facing Ying Su caused Han Xin's eyes to burst forth with an incomparably fierce light!

"Han Xin, do you wish to fight?"

PS: Begging for flowers, begging for evaluation votes!!!

037. A scholar dies for one who knows him! Han Xin is willing to die for the Emperor!

"What?"

"Do you wish to fight?"

The moment those words left his lips, everyone was stunned!

Fight?

Let Han Xin fight?

Everyone's scalp prickled!

Li Si was even more overwhelmingly shocked; although he knew Facing Ying Su was bold in employing people, he never expected Facing Ying Su's boldness in employing people could reach such a degree!

To let someone he had just met, whose background was unknown, go to war?

What kind of boldness was this!

But no matter how shocked everyone was.

Han Xin's eyes lit up at this very moment.

Those bright, spirited eyes simply made Li Chen's entire body go numb with shock!

One must know, along this journey, he had been with Han Xin the entire time!

Along this journey, Han Xin had always been without spirit in his eyes; aside from a slight interest in ants fighting, when had Li Chen ever seen him perk up?

Those spirited eyes, the very brightness of those eyes, Li Chen had never seen before!

At this moment, he was simply stunned into silence.

So, a person's eyes could be this bright, this spirited!

And similarly, seeing Han Xin's eyes suddenly flash with light, Facing Ying Su smiled!

And the moment he heard the system prompt that Han Xin's loyalty had reached sixty percent, and that he had gained six thousand points from Han Xin, Facing Ying Su smiled again!

He knew his words had struck directly at Han Xin's heart!

Han Xin!

He truly was a military fanatic!

You think he is foolish, but actually, he was simply uninterested in those things!

You think he is dull, but actually, he simply found those things boring!

What joy is there in fighting for fame and profit?

What does it matter if one is honored or humiliated, noble or base!

Fighting!

If there is one joyful thing in this world, it is leading troops into battle!

Similarly!

He was only interested in leading troops into battle!

He only found leading troops into battle interesting.

Therefore, he spent his whole day watching ants fight.

He was so obsessed with leading troops into battle that even when faced with the humiliation of crawling between someone's legs, he did not hesitate to crawl through!

It was meaningless!

What was the point of contending for bravery and fighting with them?

Rather than striving for superiority over them in such trivial matters, it was better to crawl through early to settle the matter, so as not to delay his own watching of ants fighting!

Facing Ying Su understood Han Xin, so at this moment, he spoke words that made Han Xin's entire body surge with blood and excitement, to increase Han Xin's loyalty!

"You like fighting, do you?"

"From now on, all the wars of our Great Qin will be fought by you!"

"Tuan awaits your destruction!"

"The Hundred Yue also await your assault!"

"The Xiongnu to the north, the various nations overseas—your battlefield is vast, your places to wield your martial arts are plentiful!"

"But before that, you must train the troops!"

"Though our Great Qin currently lacks no army, yet, because I am the new Emperor, my foundation is not steady enough, and my power is far from that great!"

"Therefore, the troops I can mobilize are few and far between!"

"And your primary task is to train troops for me!"

"Are you not one who says 'the more the better'? Then I grant you the right of 'the more the better'!"

"From this day forth, you shall recruit soldiers for me, you shall train soldiers for me!"

"I fear not that you train too many soldiers, I fear not that you spend money training soldiers!"

"I fear only that the soldiers you train are not numerous enough, I fear only that your soldiers are not refined enough!"

"Go, go train the troops!"

"Tuan, the Hundred Yue, the Xiongnu, the overseas Pancha Kingdom, the Roman Empire across the great ocean—all await your attack!"

"Li Si, allocate funds and grain to him; let him recruit an army now, let him train an army now!"

"Hereafter, whenever Han Xin asks you for money, no matter how much, you must give it to him; if you do not give enough, I will hold you personally accountable!"

At that moment, Ying Su spoke these words!

And upon hearing these words, Han Xin began to tremble all over.

Those eyes seemed ready to spew fire!

At that moment, though he remained silent, in Ying Su's mind, the System voice rang wildly.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for obtaining seventy percent loyalty from Han Xin; points increased by one thousand!"

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for obtaining eighty percent loyalty from Han Xin; points increased by one thousand!"

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for obtaining ninety percent loyalty from Han Xin; points increased by one thousand!"

The System voice rang continuously; however, upon reaching ninety percent, everything stopped abruptly, unable to rise further.

Though this was already high enough—even Li Si's loyalty to himself was only ninety percent.

But... Ying Su still had a way to make it higher!

Ying Su still had a way to make Han Xin even more loyal to him!
