Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

When the time comes, Ying Zheng says that Zhao Che is a saint of Great Qin, who else would dare to object?

"On behalf of those soldiers who died in battle, thank you, Father!"

Zhao Che got up and gave Ying Zheng a deep salute.

At this moment, he is not the emperor of Great Qin, nor is he the most holy, he is just a general who simply wants to find a resting place for his soldiers.

"What you have done to my Daqin soldiers, they will definitely support you even more after they know."

Ying Zheng smiled and praised Zhao Che, but glanced at Fusu who was aside.

After all, Fusu is now the heir apparent of Great Qin, and military power is very important to a country.

No emperor wants to see his subjects support themselves, because this will pose a threat to their imperial power.

Even Yingzheng, who is confident that he can suppress all rebellions, will not easily allow people to gain huge military power.

Otherwise, Wang Jian, the God of the Great Qin Army, would not have retreated so decisively at his peak, and even took various measures to stigmatize his reputation. Isn't it just to make Ying Zheng feel at ease?

And Zhao Che's prestige in the army now is not much better than that of Wang Jian back then.

If the news about the construction of the Heroic Tomb is spread again, I am afraid that the prestige in the Great Qin Army will have to be raised by more than one level.

It doesn't matter to Ying Zheng, it mainly depends on whether Fusu will develop a grudge in his heart. If this causes the brothers to fight against each other, it will not be good news for Ying Zheng and Da Qin.

"Father, in fact, the idea of ​​building the Tomb of the Heroic Spirits was proposed by Brother Fusu. Last night, I just lamented that the soldiers who died in battle had no place to bury, so Brother Fusu came up with this idea, and then asked me to bring it up to my father." come out."

"Oh? It really was Fusu who proposed it?"

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, and turned to look at Fu Su.

"This...was indeed proposed by the son-in-law."

Fusu blushed a little, but still nodded in agreement.

Because this idea was really proposed by him, but it was a concept proposed under Zhao Che's deliberate guidance, and the follow-up was also Zhao Che's perfected specific implementation process.

Fusu also guessed what Zhao Che was thinking. He didn't want to cause suspicion and jealousy among brothers because of military power, so he took the initiative to give this great credit to himself.

After all, Zhao Che's reputation in Daqin is already very high, especially in the army.

In this grassland battle, Zhao Che's achievements in the first battle have surpassed Fusu's achievements in stationing Shangjun for so many years.

"Hahaha, that's right, you are indeed my sons, you will be appreciated by the generals of Daqin for everything you do, go down, Fusu will take the lead in this matter!"

Ying Zheng smiled and asked Fu Su to take the lead, which meant that Ying Zheng also agreed with Zhao Che's idea and gave Fu Su the credit.

"My son, thank you father!"

Fusu saluted Ying Zheng, and then gave Zhao Che a grateful look, and then walked out of Xianyang Palace side by side with Zhao Che.

……

Soon, the news spread that Fusu, son of the Prince of Qin, proposed to build a tomb of heroes for the soldiers who died in the battle of Qin.

After hearing the news, many different opinions quickly appeared in the court.

Some people think that Fusu's move is a bit too aggressive and waste people's money, and express their disapproval.

And there are some people who think that Fusu's move is a model of a benevolent and righteous king. Those soldiers who died in the battle of Daqin died to defend Daqin, and they cannot be left without a place to live after death.

It is indeed a subversive idea to build martyrs' tombs in ancient times, mainly because there were too many wars in ancient times, and the number of casualties was also a lot.

However, according to the previous treatment methods, most ancient soldiers had only four outcomes after they died on the battlefield.

The first one is to let them go and let those birds and beasts eat up the bones of these soldiers.

The second is burning on the spot. This method is generally used in large-scale and long-term wars, because too many corpses accumulate and it is easy to cause plague if it takes too long.

As for the third option, it is considered the most humane one, which is to dig a big pit on the spot and bury all the bones, so as to give a safe ending in the ground.

The last method is the cruelest method, and it is usually the method used by the winning side to dispose of the corpses of the enemy, that is, to pile them up to show their achievements. This kind of thing was actually not uncommon in ancient times.

As for why these corpses were not brought back, there were naturally many reasons.

Because the situation on the battlefield is relatively chaotic, many dead bodies may not even be found in the end, and each large-scale war has at least tens of thousands of casualties. The accumulation of so many corpses will definitely cause a plague.

Therefore, when Zhao Che was cleaning the battlefield, he had people use the second method of incineration to pile up the bones of the soldiers and bring their ashes back.

Although cremation is also a very subversive method for the ancients, but at least they can still lose their souls to their homeland. Relatively speaking, it is already a relatively good ending.

Unlike the endless debates among the civil servants of the Great Qin Dynasty, among the military generals of the Great Qin Dynasty, Fusu was overwhelmingly praised.

"Young Master Fusu is really my Great Qin Renjun. If you treat ordinary soldiers with such high righteousness, you will naturally treat me as well."

"It's very true, Mr. Fusu may increase his prestige in the Great Qin Army a lot this time."

"However, I always feel that something is wrong. Building a mausoleum for the Great Qin Yingling is indeed in line with Mr. Fusu's style, but this kind of idea is not something he can bring up."

……

No matter what other people think, anyway, the construction of the Tomb of the Heroes has settled down like this.

"Brother Che, it was clearly your idea to build the Tomb of the Heroic Spirits, but you gave me the credit for it, you..."

At this time, in Ganquan Palace, Fu Suzheng and Zhao Che were sitting opposite each other, and on the table in front of them were the items that needed to be prepared and paid attention to for the construction of the Heroic Tomb.

"Brother, are you separated from me again at this time? Didn't you say that we are all one family, how can we be divided? What's more, the matter of the Tomb of the Heroes was originally brought up by you, I just Just some suggestions."

"You."

Fusu couldn't help laughing, and didn't say anything more.

"By the way, brother, there is actually one more thing. The soldiers of my Great Qin died in battle. With the Tomb of Heroes, the generals of the Great Qin should naturally have a place to sacrifice and mourn. What do you think?"

"That's right, how can I forget the outstanding generals of my Daqin, as it should be!"

As soon as Fu Su clapped his hands, Zhao Che was really thoughtful.

"Now that the soldiers have the tombs of heroic spirits, it is better to build a martial temple dedicated to the generals who have made great achievements over the years, so that the world can worship and mourn for them, and engrave their achievements and military exploits for future generations to look up to."

"Wu Temple? Alright, let's report to father!"

Hearing this, Fusu stood up and dragged Zhao Che to Xianyang Palace without saying a word.

"Why are you here again? Has the matter of the Tomb of the Heroes been settled?"
