Answer:
I agree and disagree with his choice. I agree because it proved to be an incredibly effective manner of ensuring that his men would be motivated to conquer the territory, mainly because they did not have an alternative choice. They had to become rulers there or be lost in the middle of unknown lands. In the end, his choice justified his goal and means. I also disagree because it can also be argued on how unethical it was that he prevented his men from deciding if they wanted to participate or not on the mission. He eliminated their choice and rights, which is exactly why the renaissance happened, so people can be knowledgeable and make their own decisions rather than it being imposed on them.
I hope it helps :)
