The old man from Zhenguo nodded, "Yes! But don't worry, this time our Zhou Dynasty won a complete victory, and the Heichi Kingdom in the north dared not act rashly! After all, they still have many nobles and prisoners in our hands!"

Hearing this, Sun Yingying asked curiously: "Grandfather, how can we deal with these Blackchi Kingdom captives?"

The Duke of Zhenguo replied proudly with contempt and said, "Of course they have to write a letter to surrender, and they must also receive annual monies and send hostages to them!"

Hearing this, Sun Yingying asked slightly, "That's all? Are the prisoners and the nobles of the Heichi Kingdom put back?"

The old man from Zhenguo nodded, "Of course! Otherwise, the prisoners of nearly 100,000 people consume a large amount of our food every day. The longer we stay, the less we are worth it!"

Hearing this, Sun Yingying looked dissatisfied, "Grandfather, why do I think you and the court have different ideas! And I think it's a bit stupid! Think about how did the people who captured our Great Zhou in the Heichi Kingdom?"

Hearing this, Duke Zhenguo was slightly stunned, "If the army was captured, the people of Heichi Kingdom would not show mercy at all and would slaughter them directly to avoid wasting their food! As for the civilians, they all became slaves in Heichi Kingdom!"

Sun Yingying felt a little sad when she heard this, "Why didn't you attack the soldiers of Heichi Kingdom at that time?"

The old man from Zhenguo shook his head, "Don't chase the poor enemy, the dog is desperate! If the leader who killed them forced them to surrender, we can win earlier!"

Although Sun Yingying understands it, she thinks that the subsequent treatment is not advisable.

Sun Yingying continued: "If these strong troops are put back, they will become an important force in the Blackchi Kingdom! One has increased and the other has decreased, then compared with our Great Zhou, there will be a lot of hostile troops.

Since he had eaten so much food in our Great Zhou Dynasty, he should be conscious of captives! Let them use money to redeem them, so that the people in Heichi Country can be hurt!

There was this reason why Blackchi Kingdom launched wars so easily in the past! Because they failed, they did not pay much; if they succeeded, they would be able to earn a lot!"

Hearing Sun Yingying's words, the old man from Zhenguo thought about it carefully and found that what his granddaughter said was somewhat reasonable.

The old man from Zhenguo asked again: "Yingying, you are a very smart child and have a flexible mind. Think about how to deal with it, which can help our Great Zhou get enough benefits and weaken the Black Chi Kingdom?"

Sun Yingying smiled and said in a deep voice: "Actually it's very simple. The war between the two countries is nothing more than a benefit! Even if our Great Zhou won, it would not have much benefit, so the more we attacked the treasury, the empty it became.

As a result, many ministers opposed the war and advocated peace. This further encouraged the arrogance of the Heichi Kingdom. In order to stabilize the court, the court often accepted such suggestions.

This time we will do the opposite and will never let these prisoners go easily! If we want their noble generals and soldiers to go back and use money to redeem them! They are prisoners, and they are not here to visit. How can they come whenever they want and leave whenever they want!"
