Zhao Feng naturally understood that the strategy of employing the Penal Battalion would inevitably become a trend in Qin. By proposing it first, he would be the pioneer once the Penal Battalion made achievements!
Seeing how earnest Zhao Feng was, Meng Yi and Li Teng were both very surprised. The other generals in the great hall felt the same way, finding Zhao Feng's declaration astonishing and shocking. It was common knowledge that reorganizing surrendered troops was extremely tricky, and it was considered impossible to forge them into a fighting force.
"General Zhao, are you serious?" Meng Yi asked in surprise.
"I am serious, Prefectural Governor," Zhao Feng assured. "If the reorganization of the surrendered troops is feasible, Qin can obtain a continuous stream of fresh forces for future conquests. This matter is worth exploring."
