Chapter 146 We Must Teach the King of Qin, Make Him Realize His Mistakes

At this time, Ying Zheng was very young, only in his thirties.

His heart was still filled with ambition and decisiveness.

Therefore, anyone who dared to obstruct him, he did not mind killing them all at once.

His explanations for his three policies were filled with killing intent.

Many Qin officials felt a strong sense of warning.

Those officials understood that their petty thoughts had been seen through by Ying Zheng.

It was no longer possible for them to try to seize the benefits that had not yet been obtained. If they were to forcefully do so, they would likely become souls under Ying Zheng's sword.

Therefore, after Ying Zheng finished explaining, everyone fell silent.

Even the most foolish officials sensed that the atmosphere was not right.

"Does anyone among you still object to these three policies?"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Without any hesitation, Li Si prostrated himself.

These three policies affected the interests of many, but not Li Si.

He more so wished to be enfeoffed and appointed as a minister, to realize his ambitions and promote governance by law.

And to select talent to manage Qin, one needed to rely on Qin law.

Therefore, he was the first to approve Ying Zheng's policies.

After Li Si stepped forward, many ministers and generals immediately followed.

They knew that the situation was set and their opposition would change nothing.

If they continued to oppose forcefully, they might even risk their lives.

Thinking of this, more people praised Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty is wise!!"

"Your Majesty is wise!!"

"Your Majesty is wise!!"

In the end, Ying Zheng's policies were unopposed and smoothly implemented.

And the one tasked with this was none other than Wang Wu.

It was Lin Tian who had instructed Wang Wu to do it.

When Wang Wu heard the order, he was greatly surprised.

He was no longer the young man he once was, and he knew the impact of this policy.

If things went wrong, it could truly lead to chaos.

Therefore, Wang Wu felt that he could not handle this task well.

However, Lin Tian smiled faintly.

"You don't need to do anything complicated, you just need to kill!"

"Anyone who resists, you suppress them directly, kill them!"

"If enough people are killed, naturally no one will dare to resist!"

"As for the chaos you are worried about, there is even less to worry about. This time, you will lead the soldiers under our command. Wherever there is chaos, quell it, and kill until no one dares to cause trouble!"

"However, there is one point to note: while we can ruthlessly deal with the old nobles, we must cherish the common people and not kill them wantonly!"

"After all, those common people are already the people of Qin!!"

Lin Tian knew that Wang Wu's nature was very kind, and he would not kill commoners indiscriminately.

However, he still had to explain this matter to Wang Wu.

After all, even if he could control himself, it did not mean that some of the soldiers under him would not do so.

Therefore, he needed Wang Wu to have this awareness, only then could the common people under him be restrained.

Wang Wu's eyes widened when he heard that the task was so simple.

"Do I really just need to kill people?"

"Of course! This is also an opportunity for you to be tempered!"

"If you lead the troops well this time, you will have the opportunity to stand on your own and become a general in the future!!"

For this childhood companion, Lin Tian naturally wanted to cultivate him further.

On the one hand, he was his absolute confidant, and on the other hand, he wanted Wang Wu to truly grow.

When Wang Wu heard these words, he felt even more incredulous.

"I, I can become a general?"

It was known that before, Wang Wu was just an ordinary military brat, his father only held the title of Bugeng.

Becoming a general was as distant as the stars.

Although Wang Wu had no worries about food and clothing, he had never imagined that he would become a general before.

It was only after he followed Lin Tian that he realized that his life had undergone earth-shattering changes.

Although he was not a Qin general at this moment, his power within the army was no less than that of any general.

It was just that often, he felt that his intelligence was insufficient and he could not help Lin Tian.

Therefore, he had never thought that he could become a true general.

But now, with Lin Tian's intention to cultivate him and make him a true general, the situation was completely different.

At this moment, Wang Wu's eyes were filled with tears, and he felt Lin Tian's affection.

"Brother Tian, don't worry, I will definitely do this well!!"

Wang Wu had already decided to kill anyone who dared to resist, without mercy.

And he did as he said when he carried out the task.

Qin wanted to confiscate the wealth and land of the old nobles of the three kingdoms, and those old nobles would never agree.

After all, that land and wealth were the accumulation of their many years.

They had long been accustomed to a life of affluence, and they had long been accustomed to enjoying power.

Under such circumstances, how could they abandon their land and wealth?

"When the state of Zhao was established, our family was already here. Zhao perished, and our family is still here!"

"Even the war of annihilation did not have much impact on our family, and we still lived by our own abilities!"

"Now Qin actually wants us to hand over our land and wealth. This is utterly unreasonable and goes against human ethics. We will never hand over our wealth and land!"

"Yes! We must not hand over our money and land, and we should gather the masses to jointly criticize Ying Zheng's barbaric actions!"

"Such barbaric decrees, what difference is there from beasts? How can such beasts control the court? We must teach the King of Qin, let him realize his mistake!"

"Fellow clansmen, it is time for us to resist and let them know that we are not ordinary soldiers to be conquered by them!"

Under the call of the old nobles, many scholars stepped forward.

Among them were many young talents, as well as many talented and famous great scholars.

These people stepped forward, one after another, accusing Qin's policies of being barbaric, and the entire country was like a barbaric nation, lacking all etiquette.

Many of them also mentioned how King Zhou of Zhou ruled the world with propriety, and advised Qin to govern the country with propriety.

They should treat the old nobles of the three kingdoms with propriety, rather than wantonly killing nobles and confiscating their land and wealth.

Such actions would inevitably arouse the dissatisfaction of the world.

Therefore, when Wang Wu led a large army to confiscate the land and wealth of the old nobles of the three kingdoms, many scholars directly appeared before him, blocking his path and the path of the army behind him.
