Chapter 164 The Unknown Person
Qin State, the imperial palace, this place is expensive as an imperial palace, but it is much simpler than imagined.

Qin is now one of the largest countries among the six countries, and its wealth is the highest among the six countries. However, such a Qin country can only barely maintain the livelihood of the people. How many people are on board.

The grain and grass used in this war were squeezed out by the people desperately, all pointing to defeating Zhao Guo and grabbing a few pieces of fertile land, so that everyone's life would be easier, but at this critical juncture there was still an accident.

The palace hall, the hall here is different from that of later generations, at best it can only be regarded as a larger conference room. At this time, King Qin Zhao sat cross-legged beside an antique table, his brows were furrowed, his face was full of worry, and then As if he had made up his mind, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Hundreds of officials below knelt and sat next to the smaller cases, discussing something in a low voice. Judging from their anxious faces, the situation was not good.

King Qin Zhao sat upright and asked, "Do all my lovers have a way to deal with it?"

Everyone dared not speak, for fear that they would lose their heads if they said a wrong word. Seeing that no one answered, King Qin Zhao sighed to himself: "Oh, what should we do now? Do we have to go to that step?"

King Qin Zhao's self-talk made the officials feel chills. It seems that there is only one way at present. King Qin has made up his mind a long time ago. These people are like mirrors in their hearts, knowing why King Qin Zhao has been reluctant to give orders , it's nothing more than not wanting to bear this eternal infamy, and waiting for one person to come back and take the blame.

King Qin didn't want to take the blame, and neither did the officials, so the room was quiet for a while, until a notification came.

"Report-"

"Your Majesty, General Bai Qi is back."

King Qin Zhao stood up abruptly, and said pleasantly, "The widow's love is finally back?"

The surprise on his face was not fake at all, it was pure joy from the heart, but the more this happened, the colder the officials' hearts became.

General Bai Qi has the best relationship with King Qin, but at the critical moment, King Qin still pushed Bai Qi out without hesitation.

Since ancient times, companions are like companions to tigers. This sentence is indeed true. If they get too close to King Qin Zhao, maybe one day King Qin Zhao will push them out like he did to Bai Qi.

King Qin Zhao walked out of the hall quickly, and saw Bai Qi in a white general robe.

Bai Qi, who has lost his battle armor, is more like a literati who has read poetry and books, making people unable to think of the famous killing god Bai Qi who is famous in the six countries.

There is also a reason for Bai Qi's attire. At first, he came to see him wearing the blood-stained dark red armor. Accident.

The ridge beast standing on the top of the hall actually cracked every inch of it the first time it saw him, and he was therefore regarded as an unknown person, even the ridge beast in the palace could not restrain it.

That year, it was the battle of the Iraqi clan, and he led people to wipe out 24 Korean and Wei coalition forces.

Since then, Bai Qi has to take a bath and change clothes every time he goes up to face, to wash off his blood, and put on a white general robe.

"Love General, I have been waiting for you." King Qin Zhao went up to greet him, and first he asked for warmth, which was enough to show that he attached great importance to Bai Qi.

It is not an exaggeration at all, the reason why Qin is able to live well now, and has become one of the best big countries among the six countries, most of the credit for this is attributed to Bai Qi.

"Your Majesty's words are serious." Bai Qi bowed and was quickly lifted up by King Qin Zhao, and invited him to the main hall.

Bai Qi was away all the year round, some newly promoted officials had only heard of Bai Qi's reputation, and had never seen the real person. When they saw him now, their jaws almost dropped in shock. They couldn't believe that the murderous demon king was actually the person in front of him. A young man with no trace of evil blood in his body.

Several generals were amazed when they saw Bai Qi, Bai Qi had reached the point of returning to basics, which was far beyond what they could compare.

All the officials in the hall sat down again. King Qin Zhao first praised Qi Qi's achievements, and then his face sank for a while, and he talked about the handling of 40 captives.

"Now, General Ai, you led the Daqin Iron Cavalry to defeat the Zhao army and captured 40 enemy troops. What will General Ai do with these prisoners?"

Bai Qi didn't know why, he was just a general, although he had a sense of the overall situation, but this question shouldn't be on his head, but since King Qin Zhao asked, he had to answer, otherwise he would not give King Qin Zhao face.

Therefore, Bai Qi replied: "My lord, according to my opinion, we only need to kill the main generals, and the remaining soldiers are nothing to worry about. They can be used to exchange resources with Zhao Guo. Although we won this time, we also lost a lot. , so far, the only way is the best way.”

King Qin Zhao clapped his hands and smiled: "You are worthy of being my favorite general, and he pointed out the key points with one word."

Bai Qi was even more puzzled, King Qin clearly understood what he was doing, so why did he ask him to come here?
It was obvious that King Qin Zhao hadn't finished his words, but his expression changed, and he lamented: "Love General, I have thought about this before, but I can't realize it."

"Why is this?" Bai Qi asked subconsciously. This is probably the real reason why King Qin Zhao called him back.

"Because Zhao Guo gave up these captives!"

"What?!" This sentence struck Bai Qi's mind like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. There are a total of 40 people here. How dare King Zhao do this?
As soon as this news gets out, King Zhao will definitely be cast aside by the world, and even be infamous for thousands of years.

Hundreds of officials followed suit, all of them were so angry that they wanted to point at King Zhao's nose and yell at him. As for what they were thinking, no one knew.

King Qin Zhao continued: "The state of Zhao is also short of resources at the moment. King Zhao would rather bear a bad name than exchange food, grass and weapons for these captives. The widow is also very helpless."

Bai Qi lamented in his heart, sometimes war is not the wish of the two countries, despite the superficial prosperity of these big countries, in fact life is just make do, in winter, almost every household has to count food and tighten their pants belt life.

There is no doubt that there is no suspicion of consuming the excess population in the war, which is also an important reason why King Zhao is unwilling to exchange.

As long as there is food to eat, there are as many people who sign up as soldiers, but there is only so much food and grass savings. Once these food and grass reserves are lost, Zhao will lose the ability to fight for a long time. At the same time, this also means that they have left The country is not far away
It is impossible for Zhao Guo to send people to exchange prisoners, and Qin Guo himself is living a tight life, and has never considered the plan to take these prisoners of war from the beginning to the end.

At this moment, Bai Qi finally knew the reason why King Qin Zhao sent someone to call him back.

The officials watched with cold eyes one by one, waiting for Bai Qi to make a decision.

After a long time, Bai Qi stood up and said bitterly, "I understand what to do!"
