    In the winter in Lingnan, it rains continuously, and warm and humid air flows south of Wuling all year round. Even in the cold winter, it is still as warm as spring. It is very comfortable to go out in a long gown. The sea breeze blows in the summer in the south, which makes it cooler than in the north.  ¡ô In the Nanyue Palace, Zhao Tuo opened his eyes. The biological clock he had cultivated for decades made him wake up on time at sunrise. The servant pushed the four-wheeled cart to the huge terrace. The four-story civil building was ten feet tall.  This is the highest altitude in South Vietnam.  Appreciating the beautiful sunrise, he likes to watch the sunrise very much. It was a habit developed in the pre-Qin era and has been maintained to this day.  Cao Shi accompanied the old man to appreciate the morning sun. In the past month, he often came to accompany him. The chamberlain had stopped him several times. Zhao Tuo didn't like to be disturbed when he was looking at the morning sun, even his own son and grandson. But Zhao Tuo  Unexpectedly, he was allowed to watch the scenery together.  "I remember that it was the twenty-eighth year of the First Emperor (219 BC). I was a 22-year-old young man in the prime of life. I had accumulated merits in the battle to destroy Qin and reached the rank of Fifth Grand Duke. As the deputy general of Tu Sui, I led the Qin army of 300,000 to pacify it.  In South Vietnam, we Qin people are not used to the hot and humid climate of South Vietnam. Tens of thousands of people were poisoned by the poisonous miasma when we reached the Five Ridges. After the Five Ridges, tens of thousands of people lost their fighting ability because of the acclimatization. The native people of South Vietnam were like cunning poisonous snakes, crawling into the woods.  They attacked us with poisoned spears and blow darts, poisoned our water, and lured us into the dense forest for a sneak attack. We suffered a big loss in that battle. 300,000 people died and nearly 200,000 people died, including Tu Sui.  "Zhao Tuo's mouth is the standard Guanzhong Qin opera, which has not changed at all in a hundred years.  Like Zhao Gao, he has the same surname as Zhao. More than ten years before Qin Sao unified the world, he followed his father and joined the Qin State as a doctor early.  And he received special treatment as a member of the same clan. He accumulated merits from a private soldier and gradually climbed up to the rank of fifth doctor.  Another famous general at the same time was the grandson of Wang Jian.  Wang Li, who commanded the Great Wall Army, was also the fifth noble prince.  The clan status brought him more than these great conveniences. At the age of twenty-two, he could become the deputy general of hundreds of thousands of Qin troops. Throughout the ages, Zhao Kuo, who commanded 400,000 Zhao troops, and Cao Shi, who commanded 200,000 Han troops, had  spell.  Zhao Tuo¡¯s beard and hair are all white and he is very old. He can barely walk with the help of crutches. The 100-year-old man¡¯s speech is slightly slurred. His tall body is like a clothes rack, and his once strong body has become as skinny as a stick.  The waning old man is enjoying the few good years in his old age.  "Tu Sui died miserably. He was hit by a poisonous arrow from the South Vietnamese. After drinking the poison administered by the South Vietnamese, his belly swelled like a pregnant woman. It happened to be a sunny dawn before he died, just like today.  The weather was like the sun today. He held my hand and told me to remember my mission, my mission as a Qin person. I will never forget those words. He shook my heart. " "What words.  ?¡± ¡°We are not expanding the territory for the First Emperor, but looking for a place for the Qin people to live in. The land in Guanzhong is rich and beautiful, but we Qin people will have to leave Guanzhong sooner or later, just like the prosperity of the three Jin Dynasties comes from the mountains and rivers inside and outside.  Hegemony comes from going out. No matter how good our hometown is, we still have to survive outside. The opportunities left to us in our hometown are never enough. South Vietnam is our Qin people¡¯s biggest attempt to go south of Bashu, and we are the pioneers of the Qin people.  I laid the foundation for going south. Even if I die, I will have no regrets! I buried Tu Sui with my own hands. There were too many bugs in his body. He breathed his last that morning. I burned his body with pure fire.  Lit it, watching those hateful insects twist and struggle to death in the flames, I will never forget that morning. "Zhao Tuo held his chin in one hand and meditated quietly, sometimes frowning, sometimes raising memories buried in it.  The eventful years deep in the memory.  Cao Shi was silent.  Every word of an old man who is over a hundred years old will have a huge impact on everyone. Perhaps only at his age can he realize the profound wisdom of seeing through the world of mortals and life and death.  "Ren Xiao, he was the second general sent by the First Emperor. He brought 200,000 new troops to support South Vietnam. Under our guidance, he successfully bypassed the Jedi in Wuling. He learned the lessons of the last failure and avoided fighting in the woods with the barbaric Vietnamese.  We conquered Panyu with unstoppable force and killed the whole family of King Zuo of South Vietnam. We occupied the best farmland in the South Vietnam plain. We forced the Yue people into the mountains and could not come out. It only took 4 years for the Yue people to finally be unable to bear the mountains.  I lived a hard life, walked out of the dense forest in rags and surrendered. It was the happiest time in my life. It was far happier than the destruction of Wei, Zhao, Chu and Qi. The Yue people healed our wounds and taught us to avoid poisonous miasma.  Killing, and the planting habits of South Vietnam. I am the magistrate of Longchuan County. I have recruited the Western Ouyue people in Longchuan and spent a few years of a peaceful life" Zhao Tuo's tone changed from passionate to calm, and he spoke slowly.  His process of pacifying Xiou transformed Longchuan from the most barbaric area on the South Vietnamese border to an important pillar next to Panyu that was closest to the Qin army. His Qin wife died of illness, so he married a Yue woman there.??That woman gave birth to three sons and two daughters for him. The eldest son and the second son did not live past the age of 10. Only the youngest son grew up. Unexpectedly, he died of illness just after he turned thirty, leaving only his grandson Zhao Juan to raise.  grow up.  Cao Shi did not interrupt the old man's chatter until the old man realized that he had digressed in the topic.  "I'm sorry! People talk nonsense like this when they are old. Where did I just talk? Ren Xiao was seriously ill and asked me to go back to Panyu. In fact, I know he will not live long. He is more than twenty years older than me and has no physical condition.  He was treated promptly by the Yue people, and he was lucky to have lived in South Vietnam for ten years. It was also morning before he died. Maybe I and the morning sun are destined to be together. It has been two years since the death of the First Emperor. He told me that the Qin government has no power.  The Central Plains were disturbed, and Panyu was burdened with dangerous mountains and blocked the South China Sea. It was thousands of miles from east to west, and there were quite a few Chinese people to help it. This was also the leader of a state, and he could establish a country. He appointed me as the captain of the South China Sea, commanding more than 200,000 Qin people.  Two million Yue people were ordered to attack with stolen troops and gather troops to defend themselves. When the Chu-Han war was at its most intense, I proclaimed myself king. " Cao Shi remained silent, as Zhao Tuo did when he proclaimed himself king.  It was as calm as if the next door neighbor gave birth to a big fat boy. Compared with the magnificent Chu-Han War, Zhao Tuo becoming king was just a small footnote of that era, and there is really no need to be too surprised.  "Isn't my story very boring? I think so too! The ups and downs in the first half of my life. The ordinary life in the second half. I have lived in South Vietnam for too long. It has been so long that I have forgotten my mission and Tu Sui Lin.  A message before my death. I thought my life would end in South Vietnam until you appeared. "Zhao Tuo sighed: "Chu people! I have never met Liu Bang, but I know a lot about his life. He was a rebel.  The bandit leader of the Qin Dynasty, he was the king of Han who conquered the Three Qin Dynasties, he was the Taizu of the Han Dynasty who destroyed Chu and became emperor. I watched him grow from an ordinary bandit leader to the founding monarch of a great empire. Liu Bang was the first emperor who passed away.  The first emperor worthy of the name, I hate the Chu people and the Han people, but I have to accept the reality. The Qin people have become Han people. What do I have to struggle with? I am surprised by your arrival, and even more surprised by your youth.  "You are only eighteen years old this year, right?" Cao Shi said, "Zhuan Xu is the beginning of the new year, and he will be nineteen after ten months." Zhao Tuo nodded and said, "You are much younger than I was then."  You were appointed as the deputy general of the Qin army at the age of 18, and you became the general of the Han army at the age of eighteen. I am not as good as you." Cao Shi disagreed: "You are walking on thin ice every day under the orders of the emperor. It is not worthy of envy." "You can think that way.  By the way, I have been the king of South Vietnam for more than sixty years, and the queen attacked South Vietnam. I once engraved the emperor's seal privately, and then destroyed it after consensus. I have been the emperor of the country for decades, and no one knows the emperor better than me.  You have a superior background and a noble status. The emperor is very close to you and likes you very much. But one day he will hate you, be afraid of you, and guard against you until he kills you. Wu Zixu, whose literary style is Lao Huangli in the Spring and Autumn Period, Li Mu, Lian  Po and Mengtian happened within a hundred years. Their yesterday is your tomorrow. " "No way." "How can I lie to a young man like you when I am a hundred years old?  My son still needs your care. I don't have the physical strength to return to Guanzhong. I will be satisfied if I stay in Panyu for a few years and take my ashes back to Xianyang for burial." Cao Shi was silent. He didn't know.  How to answer Zhao Tuo.  Zhao Tuo knew that he was in trouble, and his snow-white eyebrows trembled. The young man in front of him was Cao Shen's great-grandson. According to his age, he was more than enough to be his great-grandson. His great-grandson Zhao Yingqi was slightly older than Cao Shi.  At the age of 16, he became a famous official in the Shaofu. At the age of 18, he became a general in charge of chariots and cavalry. He first destroyed Yelang and then destroyed Nanyue. At the time of the Qin Empire, the First Emperor also wanted to make great use of such talents. Isn¡¯t it just that Li Xin was young?  The Qin general who was more than 20 years younger led the Qin army of 200,000 to attack Chu and was defeated and returned to Xianyang. The advantage of being young is that he has a bright future. However, being young is not perfect, and a sudden rise to power at a young age requires paying a huge price.  "You must understand. 74 years ago, I, like you, faced a major decision. How to deal with the First Emperor in South Vietnam. My choice was to take root in South Vietnam and work hard facing the sea. Even though the Qin Empire was powerful  If my fortune is prosperous, I will not return to Xianyang again. I was too young when I performed my meritorious service and was tabooed by my colleagues. When I am older and have been away from the center for too long, I will be tabooed by the emperor. It is better to stay in the wilderness and become a frontier.  Official, if time allows, I will be a prince like I am today." Good man, please be crowned king!  Cao Shi was alert and found himself standing in the middle of the corridor, with guards standing on both sides motionless to protect him.  Zhao Tuo was old, had bad legs and legs, and his weak body was not suitable for sitting for a long time. Not long after watching the sunrise, the chamberlain pushed the cart for a walk.  He was a great hero in the first half of his life, at least in the eyes of the Qin people, he was the hero who destroyed the six kingdomsIn the second half of his life, he evolved into a tyrant who split the land and divided the borders and watched with cold eyes, watching the Qin Dynasty's demise and the creation of the Han Dynasty.  Zhao Tuo¡¯s life is extraordinarily complicated. In other words, every person who lives over one hundred years old is a living dictionary, the crystallization of civilization of an era, and a treasure of inherited culture.  This month I heard Zhao Tuo talk about a lot of old Qin stories. The old man himself was like a walking dictionary, telling stories from the Qin Empire to the era of Qin Xiaogong and since Shang Yang's reform. It was completely different from the fragmentary records in history books.  More detailed and tortuous, Cao Shi would record his words with pen and paper every day.  When winter entered in November, the Han army stationed in Nanyue did not move.  Besides, regardless of the inconveniences of traveling over mountains and ridges in the freezing cold weather in the north, if we just find a way to solve the problem of acclimatization, we might start traveling over mountains and ridges immediately and make a lot of people sick, so it would be better to stay in the Panyu Plain.  It is better to spend a long winter than walking on wet and cold ground and being soaked in cold rain.  Breathing poisonous miasma, he rolled and crawled back to Chang'an.  It is neither convenient nor possible to walk.  It was only in South Vietnam that we had time to pacify the territory, but if we withdraw our troops now, all our previous efforts will be in vain.  There are many arrogant Yue people who are lawless and even lawless.  In particular, some people who live in the mountains all year round are unwilling to farm and refuse to be Chinese. They maintain the primitive tribal life without wearing clothes. They smear strange oil paint on their bodies and use blowguns, javelins and inferior bows as weapons. They are good at tempering poison and nourishing animals.  Insects, even Shuyue who lives in Panyu are not willing to deal with them.  This group of people is the king of South Vietnam and has no choice but to maintain a cooperative relationship.  Shengyue occasionally went down the mountain to purchase daily necessities from Shuyue, and used the animal skins, rhino horns, and ivory hunted in the mountains to trade for rice, salt, coarse cloth, hemp rope and other items.  The King of Nanyue was captured, and the highly vigilant Shengyue refused to surrender. They went into the mountains and forests to remain on guard for more than a month. Most of the Shengyue were scattered in the mountainous areas of the southwest. Some were related to the Gouting Barbarians, and some were  Close relations with Luoc Viet (Vietnam) further south.  ?According to the Han system.  Cao Shi appointed Zhao Sui as the southern captain, and led 10,000 South Vietnamese barbarians and 10,000 Yelang barbarians to garrison in Xiou, especially in Longbian (Hanoi, Vietnam) area to control Fushengyue, where the plain area was not weak at all.  Panyu.  He compiled the battle report of the destruction of South Vietnam into a more than 1,000-page report on the Vietnam War and submitted it to the emperor.  Its contents include almost all the details of the conquest of South Vietnam. Considering the confidentiality, only the emperor has the authority to access it. The envoy has just left for half a month.  It is expected that the dry season in winter will take some time, and we will wait for the emperor's reply in three months.  The emperor gave a reply.  Established counties and counties in South Vietnam, dispatched bureaucrats, and relocated Han people.  Guide and educate the Yue people into sinicization, teach the Yue people more advanced techniques for growing crops, and more importantly, organize the people into households, and integrate the lvli system with the basic system of the three elders, jifu, youjiao, pavilion chief, rank, and lizheng in the township.  In order to do this, we must find ways to get out of the mountains.  "The method is not difficult to come up with. Let Shu Yue take the lead in capturing Sheng Yue. The captured Sheng Yue will be demoted to slaves. Those who capture more Sheng Yue with meritorious service can be promoted to untouchables. If they perform meritorious service again, they will be promoted to Luzuo City. Continue to perform meritorious service.  But for the common people, the more people we capture, the fewer people we will live in the mountains." Chen Wushang stood up and said, "Master, sir, you are wrong. Our Han army is an upright army. Such actions will harm the Han family.  Face! We should attack Shengyue with a large army. The soldiers will be afraid of Shengyue. "You are wrong! You only know one thing but not the other. How to use virtue to influence the barbaric tribes who are illiterate and unwilling to be Chinese."  It's useless. The barbarians are very united. They can play hide and seek by hiding in the mountains and forests under the protection of the poisonous miasma. Zhao Sui, the southern captain, fought in Luoyue for almost a month without any achievements. Another year of fighting will probably have little effect.  , How long can we get better? If we don't pull it out for a day, nothing will be achieved in the reorganization of Qi people in the south of Wuling. Sooner or later, the hidden dangers on the border will become a sore that threatens South Vietnam's security. Does Chen Duwei have a way to solve it?  : "What are you afraid of if there are hidden dangers? There are hidden dangers on all sides of our Han family. What's the harm in leaving some to live in Vietnam?" "Li Duwei's statement is wrong. General Chariot and Cavalry has repeatedly issued orders to completely take back South Vietnam. It must not become an outlaw."  Moreover, the hidden dangers on all sides of the Han family will be eliminated sooner or later. Sheng Yue, led by Luo Yue, is the first step. Dealing with Sheng Yue will be of great help to us in solving more barbarian tribes. " Cao Shi personally held the battle for him.  , Zhu Fuyan can speak confidently and boldly, expounding the strategy of controlling the barbarians in tens of thousands of words. The strategies mentioned in the words are aimed at cultivating the leading party. Just like the Huns conquered the Yuezhi people, some weak Yuezhi people changed their appearance and became  He became the little kings such as King Xiutu, King Hunxie, King Luhou, and King Zhelan. They were willing to serve as lackeys for the Huns to massacre the Yue clan. Traitors are often the most ruthless in killing their own clansmen because they need to use the blood of their clansmen to prove it.  It is extremely correct for you to be a lackey by yourself.  Although it is a bit sad, the traitor¡¯sThe real meaning lies in this. If they don't prove themselves right, their rebellion will not only be worthless, but will also be nailed to the pillar of shame in history and become a stain that can never be washed away.  "We only need some of them to survive, and the bait will achieve our goal step by step. This is an experiment. If the experiment is successful, South Vietnam will always maintain peace, and maybe we can continue to expand its territory southward. You will have the opportunity to be remembered in history."  Yan threw out a bait.  The bait is sweet and delicious and has an endless aftertaste. A man may not care about gold and silver wealth because it is an external possession, or he may not care about the tenderness of a beautiful woman because it is a pink skull, but there are a few people who don¡¯t care about their posthumous reputation.  In his later years, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, in order to pursue his posthumous reputation, took the initiative to break the shackles that had suppressed the princes for forty years, and supported the renovation of New Chang'an and the temple project. It was for the sake of the name of Emperor Gao Zongjing. This was not a meaningless act, at least according to the records of historians  There will be more positive comments on the life of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, so he won't have to worry too much about killing Chao Cuo, killing the deposed prince, and killing Zhou Yafu.  Facing the temptation of posthumous fame, Cao Shi acted very calmly. As long as he maintained his momentum and made no mistakes, his life would be remembered in history. The generals of the Han army were not so calm and calm, and they did not have such a big reputation. Maybe this  Conquering South Vietnam in one lifetime will be recorded in the history books. If you do well, you will be a famous official and general of the emperor. If you fall short, you will be unknown and submerged in the tide of history.  When the Qin Dynasty destroyed the Six Kingdoms, how many famous ministers and generals contributed to it? In the end, only a few people were qualified to record it. Among them, it was difficult to record on bamboo slips. More importantly, the contributions of other people were inconspicuous and could not attract attention.  Historians who are illiterate in military matters pay close attention to this.  Zhao Junyu's eyes lit up: "Maybe it's worth a try." "That's right, it's not just Sheng Yue, why don't we want to part with it." "Just do it!" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster  ! ps: Zhao Tuo is a legendary figure. He was a general when Qin Shihuang founded the country and became emperor. He experienced Hu Hai, the second emperor of Qin, and became king after the death of his son Ying, the third emperor of Qin. In the era of princes and kings, he experienced Han Gaozu, Han Hui, Han Wen, and Han Jing.  Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty can be described as a living fossil of the Qin and Han Dynasties.
