Section 458 Zhao Tuo!


Nanyue country, Panyu city Guangzhou.

At this moment, there was a scene of jubilation.

Today is the ninety-first birthday of King Zhao Tuo, the founder of the Kingdom of Nanyue.

There was an endless stream of South Vietnamese nobles, ministers, local officials, and clan leaders who came to He.

Among the congratulatory gifts, dozens of beautiful girls were impressively listed.

Zhao Tuo casually dialed these bamboo slips that recorded the origin and information of these beautiful girls at this moment, his eyes were burning, and under the cover of the beads, no one knew what he thought in his heart, only he was sincerely afraid, and bowed his head and bowed.

After a long time, Zhao Tuo said tremblingly: "It's over, it's over."

"The widow is old, these maids are all sent to Wang Shisun" "Nuo" Prime Minister Lu Jia bowed his head.

Zhao Tuo's gaze crossed Lu Jia and stayed at the gate of the dormitory, which had been decades old, but was still brand new.

Seeing this chariot, Zhao Tuo seemed to travel back in time and return to that morning more than 60 years ago.

"The First Emperor has died" An angel from China brought this news, which was equivalent to bad news, to Nanhai County.

In the entire Nanhai County, hundreds of thousands of troops were in tears.

Almost all people, at that moment, seem to have lost their reason for existence.

Especially for Zhao Tuo, the death of the First Emperor is equivalent to the fall of the sky.

At that time, hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Nanhai County were thinking in their hearts: Without the First Emperor, who should we listen to?

This kind of life of losing the backbone and goal of struggle is indeed very difficult.

Soon, Zhao Tuo discovered that in fact, things were far from being as bad as he imagined.

The First Emperor died, and Nanhai County became an orphan of the Great Qin Empire.

The nobles of Xianyang were busy with political disputes, Zhao Gao Lisi, acting recklessly, and supplies and support from China were gradually cut off, even.

None of the envoys of Xianyang appeared in Nanhai County.

The Qin army, immigrants and dependents of this Nanhai County can only rely on him and the county lieutenant at that time.

Having lost the support of the motherland, the expeditionary force began to move forward in Nanhai County, where Baiyue was mixed and scattered.

The Yue people are unruly.

It is difficult to tame and often attacks areas where Chinese immigrants gather.

At that time, Zhao Tuo was the county magistrate of Longchuan County, Nanhai County.

Longchuan is located between Baiyue and the main gathering place of Chinese immigrants, and its strategic location is very important.

Relative.

The attacks and resistance of the Vietnamese people were also very strong.

All year round, Zhao Tuo is taking his own army, killing and killing.

Those who dare to attack the Han people will be killed, those who do not obey their orders will be killed, and even those who have the wrong eyes will be killed The elite Qin army of China, crushing the resistance of the Baiyue tribes, of course, was easy.

However, in the depths of the jungle, the Baiyue tribe in the swamp is inexhaustible.

Extinguished.

This year, 10,000 heads were cut off, and next year, another 30,000 Vietnamese people rushed over with a scream.

At that time, Zhao Tuo often rode that chariot to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress the Baiyue tribe that rebelled against the rule and attacked the Han people.

The ruts of the chariot were stained with the flesh and blood of the Baiyue people, and in the swamps, mountains and forests, corpses were everywhere, and stumps and broken bodies could be seen everywhere.

Finally one day, Zhao Tuo found out.

Killing people alone will not solve the problem.

The Yue people are not afraid of death at all, so why should they be afraid of death If the First Emperor was still there, it would be nothing With the unwavering support of the First Emperor.

Chinese supplies, immigrants, supplementary troops and civilian officials poured into the South China Sea in a steady stream, and the elite and ruthless Qin army could clear the resistance of the Baiyue people inch by inch of land.

It's a pity that the brilliant First Emperor died and fell on the road to the south in search of immortality.

Sitting in Xianyang City is a group of flies.

A mediocre aristocrat with a small eye in the eyes of a rat.

No one cared about the hundreds of thousands of troops and immigrants in Nanhai County, and the envoy sent to Xianyang for help came back to report that the nobles in the court only cared about the money, taxes, and grain sent by Nanhai County, and no one cared about the life and difficulties of Nanhai County at all, and Xianyang didn't even want to send a single soldier to Nanhai anymore.

They are ready to use these resources and wealth for their own extravagant life, the enjoyment of drunkenness.

Nanhai County became an orphan and was abandoned by Xianyang Rewarded by the messenger, everyone fell silent.

Some people did not believe it, so another group of messengers set out.

But the result was very cruel, several waves of messengers in a row, and the news brought back was the same: Xianyang only ordered and urged Nanhai County to pay taxes, as for resources and reinforcements Zhao Gao was busy pointing to the deer as a horse, and Li Si was seeking to break the net, who cared about the problem of Nanhai County The county lieutenant was arrogant, and the anger of leaving, the soldiers of Nanhai County were also dead set on Xianyang.

The glory of the Great Qin Empire, with the death of the First Emperor and the struggle of Zhao Gaolisi, disappeared like a sunset.

The Age of Darkness of Boundlessness has come.

In the darkness, no one knows what awaits hundreds of thousands of soldiers and immigrants who have been ordered to come to Baiyue and expand the territory for future generations Everyone was panicked and overwhelmed.

And the resistance of the Baiyue people is still fierce.

At that time, Zhao Tuo knew that the policy had to be changed.

Without China's support, no more than half a million immigrants and troops would have been enough to gain a foothold in this civilized wilderness.

But, at that time, Zhao Tuo didn't know what to do Baiyue people are unruly, do not understand Chinese and Chinese, and have difficulties in communicating.

Some people can't hold on anymore and numb themselves with alcohol all day long, and some people are extremely decadent, like the walking dead.

Even, there are desperate officers who can't bear the pressure and choose to commit suicide.

Ren Huan and Zhao Tuo had to start looking for a path for the hundreds of thousands of comrades under their command.

They have that responsibility and that obligation, because these hundreds of thousands of comrades and immigrants were brought to this wild Nanhai County from their prosperous hometown in China.

The fox died, and the first hill was not to mention the people Ren Huan decided to abandon the colony of Nanhai County, and the whole army escorted the immigrants and their families back to China, even if it cost them their lives Soon, however, another piece of news came from China, and the world was in turmoil Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled in Daze Township, and the rebel army was like a prairie fire, and the Great Qin Empire lost control of the world.

Then, heroes rose all over the world, and beacons spread all over the world.

Every day, countless refugees flee to the South China Sea.

Tell the soldiers of Nanhai County about the horror and horror of the war in China.

The official army and the rebel army fought each other, and countless prosperous cities were turned into ruins, and how many cities with prosperous populations were destroyed.

It became an empty dead city.

The empire is gone Faith collapsed What's more, there is no hometown anymore Almost all of their hometowns are already under fire Countless people are asking: what should we do?

In order to prevent Nanhai County from being affected by the war, the county lieutenant ordered the burning of bridges and roads leading to China and the closure of Wuguan.

For the belligerents of the Chinese Civil War.

None of the soldiers in Nanhai County have a good impression.

The arrogance of the Qin court and the misdeeds of the nobles, ministers, and princes broke their hearts, and they refused to die for a regime that had changed color and lost the spirit of Qin's statehood.

As for the rebellious Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Xiang Yu, Liu Bang, King Chu Huai or something Hehe, in the eyes of the soldiers of Nanhai County, if a group of rebellious first emperors are there, a piece of edict, 500,000 soldiers and civilians in Nanhai County.

It's time to go out of the customs to quell the rebellion Moreover, at this time, the resistance and attacks of the Baiyue people became more and more frequent, and Nanhai County had no time to pay attention to China's rights and wrongs.

It was also at that time that Zhao Tuo caught a person in the process of leading the army to encircle and suppress the Baiyue tribe.

His current prime minister, Lu Jia, is a nobleman among the Baiyue people.

Zhao Tuo finally discovered that it turned out that Baiyue people were not unable to communicate, and they could not only rely on iron and blood.

Death and killing to conquer.

The nobles who control Baiyue can control the tribes of Baiyue, and the nobles of Baiyue surrender, that.

Those Baiyue barbarians, who were not afraid of death and succeeded one after another, will suddenly become subjects who cannot fight back or scold, and are more docile than the Chinese peasants.

So, Zhao Tuo put forward the slogan of harmony with Baiyue.

Give Baiyue aristocratic official positions, fortunes and rewards.

Scribes were sent to teach the Baiyue nobles to read and write, and to teach them etiquette, morality, and culture.

So, Baiyue people are honest.

No more people have attacked the Chinese agglomeration.

No one is hostile to the Chinese anymore.

The Chinese and the Vietnamese can finally live in peace.

Of course, in this process, some disobedient thorns will naturally disappear in the process of national integration.

Today, Zhao Tuo can proudly say that in the territory of South Vietnam, the tribes of Baiyue are in essence no different from the Chinese.

The vast majority of them, with Chinese surnames, get along with each other with Chinese etiquette, and are based on Chinese characters.

Although everyone is not very interested in the current Chinese Son of Heaven, they regard him, the king of Nanyue, as if he were a god.

After that, things went very smoothly.

When China was still tormented by war, the soldiers of Nanhai County were busy marrying wives and having children.

Their wives and concubines came from the heads of the various tribes of Baiyue and the daughters of noble families.

In order to encourage the soldiers from China to marry the daughters of the Baiyue tribe, Zhao Tuo and Ren Huan took the lead in marrying the daughters of the Baiyue nobles.

This tradition has continued to this day, and Zhao Tuo will marry dozens of Baiyue women every year, filling his harem.

And after the Baiyue people married the rulers from China, they also felt at ease and submitted to the rule of the Chinese colonists.

Then, Zhao Tuo's closest comrade-in-arms, together with him, was ordered by the First Emperor to command the army to conquer Baiyue, the county lieutenant Ren Huan died of illness, and Ren Huan passed the power of the county lieutenant to Zhao Tuo before his death.

Then, Zhao Tuo sent troops to annex the other two neighboring counties, Xiangjun and Guilin.

The world is in turmoil, the Qin court has collapsed, and faith has been shattered.

Unconsciously, Zhao Tuo became a big hero in the hearts of soldiers and immigrants in the three counties of Nanhai, Guilin and Xiangjun.

Countless people adored him and worshipped him.

Zhao Tuo's ambition also slowly swelled.

He first set himself up as king in Panyu City, waited for a while, and found that no one cared about him, and there was no opposition.

So he called himself the martial king of Nanyue, called the police in and out, called the system in writing, and also used the honor guard and system of the Son of Heaven.

Unfortunately, the good days are not far away.

The war in China quickly subsided.

Liu Bang from Peijun miraculously defeated all the competitors, ascended the throne in Luoyang, and established the Han Dynasty.

Soon, Liu Bang moved the capital to Guanzhong, built Weiyang and Changle palaces on the ruins of the Qin Palace, and established Chang'an City on the basis of these two palaces.

The son of Han after dominating the world.

Finally, it was discovered that in the South China Sea, a place with pimples in the horns, there was also a regime established by the remnants of Qin.

In the fifth year of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang moved Wu Qi, the king of Hengshan, to the king of Changsha.

In the edict of canonization.

The territory of Changsha included Nanhai, Guilin, and Xiangjun.

This is a naked expression of the threat to his Zhao Tuo.

Since then, Changsha and Nanyue have become mortal enemies.

For decades, it has not been once or twice that the blades have met each other.

In the beginning, China was tired.

Changsha is a small country, and the South Vietnamese soldiers can naturally beat Changsha without pressure.

It's a pity that someone pulled the shelf After the defeat of Changsha, the elite soldiers and horses from the Chinese Son of Heaven accepted the defense of Changsha, and the army gathered, and the horses were fierce and murderous.

At that time, the first generation of elite Qin soldiers who came here with Zhao Tuo to pioneer in the early days were either old, or had died on the battlefield and buried their bones in a foreign land.

A new generation of warriors who grew up in the wild region of Baiyue.

Whether it is equipment, technology or tactics, they were thrown out of eighteen streets by the Han army, which had experienced the Chinese hegemony.

Fortunately, the Chinese Son of Heaven also has internal and external troubles.

The princes inside were ready to move, and the Huns outside the Great Wall were also eyeing each other.

It is unlikely that the rat will enter the South Vietnamese country.

In this way, after countless negotiations and compromises, Zhao Tuo surrendered to Chang'an and accepted the canonization and seal of the Son of Heaven of China.

This is for Zhao Tuo.

It's a good thing.

He was finally able to justify his name and swagger to claim the throne.

Moreover, with the recognition and canonization of the Son of Heaven from China, both those thorns inside. is still the nobles of Baiyue, and they are all honest.

If, like this, Zhao Tuo would be happy to maintain it forever.

Unfortunately, this is not possible For decades, Thian never gave up its ambitions for South Vietnam.

Whether it was Changsha at the beginning.

It was still the later state of Wu and Chu, and never stopped coveting and ambition for South Vietnam.

In the past few decades, friction and even large-scale conflicts on the border have never stopped.

In the middle, there are countless swords, swords, and arrows.

From Zhao Tuo's point of view, the South Vietnamese regime has survived until now that it has gone through 9981 difficulties Recalling these past events, Zhao Tuo felt that his spirit was reinvigorated.

"A widow can't die," Zhao Tuo told himself in his heart.

He has lived for ninety-one years Outlived the vast majority of people in this world He survived Han Taizu, Empress Lu, Changsha King Wu Qi, Han Taizong Xiaowen Emperor, Wu King Liu Wei, these heroes and heroes, but he still had to survive.

Because of the news from Chang'an, he was very uneasy.

The newly enthroned emperor of the Han family has only been in power for half a year, and all kinds of measures and measures have made Zhao Tuo, an old fox who has experienced countless ups and downs and struggles, smell something unusual.

The demise of North Korea confirmed his speculation.

Since the First Emperor, the concept and idea of great unification have been deeply rooted in the soul of every Chinese.

Even Zhao Tuo himself could hardly resist this desire from the depths of his soul.

Every normal Chinese ruler will not give up reunification, and every normal Chinese will not sit idly by and watch the country split.

Zhao Tuo even felt that it was not that he was already ninety years old, and he had been the king for more than 50 years, and he was afraid that he would be like his grandson, who would fantasize and long.

But it's a pity that after living to his age and experiencing his ups and downs for so many years, Zhao Tuo no longer believes in any ideals and beliefs.

Although he worked hard to implement the Sinicization reform in the South Vietnamese Kingdom, integrating the Baiyue tribes into the Chinese system.

But for Chang'an, he owes no loyalty at all.

Want him to surrender Yes, let the First Emperor come back to life and personally issue an edict As for the Liu Son of Heaven in Chang'an, who is that In Zhao Tuo's eyes, even Liu Bang is just a mere leader, a rebel who pretends to be a rebellion in the country, does rebellious things, is crowned by a monkey, and is a traitor to Si Chen.

It's just that Zhao Tuo is also very sober to see the danger in the future.

The sinicization of the country is deepening.

From the royal family to the common people, they all recognized Chang'an as the suzerain.

Even his eldest grandson, Zhao Hu, was even more obsessed with the prosperity and richness of Chang'an, and talked about returning to Chang'an every day for the Hajj.

The second and third generations of Qin soldiers and the descendants of immigrants have forgotten how the Chinese regime abandoned their ancestors.

They all miss returning to their hometowns to worship their ancestors.

The Confucian scholars from Wu Chu Qilu were pervasive among these people who propagated the concept of Zhuxia.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that after he breathes, no one in this South Vietnam country will be able to fight against the coercion and temptation from Chang'an.

"State affairs are difficult.

Only a few people can know the prime minister," Zhao Tuo inexplicably sighed to Prime Minister Lu Jia who knelt in front of him.

In the past two decades, Zhao Tuo has begun to support Lü Jia and other Baiyue aristocratic leaders to balance the pro-Han forces in the country.

It's just that it's Baiyue people, after decades of sinicization.

He actually began to look forward to China and regarded himself as a Chinese, which made Zhao Tuo really happy and sad The only one who can have a common language with Zhao Tuo and can understand his policies is probably the only prisoner who is kneeling in front of him now.

Now the patriarch of the Lu clan, the most prestigious among the Baiyue people, is Lu Jia, the prime minister of South Vietnam.

Lu Jia kowtowed and said: "The king is hard, and the minister also knows it, the Chinese Son of Heaven, Xiang Zhuang dances the sword, and the minister also sees it, and dares to ask the king to show it."

For Lu Jia, everything he has now is given by Zhao Tuo, if it weren't for Zhao Tuo, he would have been a pile of white bones.

Where did it come to be today It's just that Lu Jia himself is already dying.

The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

"The widow is ninety-one years old, and he can't live for a few years" Zhao Tuo sighed: "The widow's eldest son died early, and many sons died.

If one day, the widow follows Ren Gong away, this Nanyue Sheji Zong Temple will have to rely on the prime minister to take care of him.

Remember, if the grandson wants to go to Chang'an, he must be discouraged" Zhao Tuo knew very well in his heart that in case he died, Zhao Hu's unfilial grandson went to Chang'an, this South Vietnam.

It's about to lose its autonomy completely.

If you are lucky, the Zhao family may still be able to be an Anlehou, but if you are unlucky, a glass of poisonous wine will be slashed all over the house After experiencing Xianyang's betrayal, Zhao Tuo really had a hard time believing in the discipline of a ruler in a high position.

Besides, he is now a hegemon, so why should he be subservient to others The only thing to worry about is future generations.

It's just that he has said these words countless times, although every time Zhao Hu nodded yes and swore to abide by them, Zhao Tuo could see that his grandson didn't take his warning to heart at all.

That naïve young man was full of thought that the Son of Heaven in Chang'an was extremely kind to him and would not harm him There was no way, Zhao Tuo could only continue to strengthen Lü Jia's power, and if one day, he died, Lü Jia could continue to support the independence of South Vietnam.

"It's just that after Lu Jia's death, who else can this Nanyue country rely on" Zhao Tuo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

There is no need for Lu Jia to die.

As long as the Son of Heaven of Chang'an has firm beliefs and is willing to sacrifice, this Nanyue country, even if he is still alive, will not be able to support it As a member of the Qin Empire's once rigorous and vast military system, Zhao Tuo knew how powerful the Chinese regime would be once mobilized In that year, he and Ren Huan were ordered to command 500,000 troops to open up territory for the first emperor, and came to this barren land where hundreds of Yue people lived.

In order to be able to take root here, the first emperor ordered to dig a canal with manpower to deliver supplies to the army and replenish the supply of soldiers.

Now, if Chang'an decides to use force.

Then, many of the facilities built by the First Emperor in order to attack the South China Sea region were ready-made and could be used.

What is even more troublesome is that in the past 50 years, Zhao Tuo has developed the counties of Nanyue, built many roads, water conservancy facilities and bridges, cleared many blocked rivers, swamps and jungles that obstructed traffic.

In other words, the current Han army no longer needs to be like the Qin army sixty years ago, in these Nanyue counties, every step is extremely difficult.

They only need to knock on the five passes of defense arranged by the South Vietnamese State on the border, and they can drive straight in, along the roads and rivers built by Zhao Tuo, to Panyu.

Moreover, the Han army did not even need to face the unruly Baiyue tribe anymore.

Those Baiyue tribes that caused huge casualties and difficulties to the Qin army back then have basically been more or less sinicized today.

Especially in the core area ruled by Zhao Tuo, there is almost no difference between the Baiyue people and the Han people.

These people are not disgusted with Han people, on the contrary, there may be people who will welcome Han people.

Zhao Tuo ruled South Vietnam for decades, although he had his own basic plate, but on the other hand, there were also enemies and tribes who did not like his rule.

These people are probably dreaming of overthrowing Zhao Tuo's rule.

As soon as the Han army arrived, these people would immediately become the leading party And last year's Wu Chu rebellion.

It also shows the combat effectiveness of the Han army.

Hundreds of thousands of Wu Chu's army were wiped out in three months More than 100,000 Sanyue troops who accompanied Liu Bi, the king of Wu, to the north, only fled back a few thousand.

All the survivors told others about the strength and invincibility of the Han army without fear.

Now.

After destroying Wu Chu and accepting Wu Chu's Chang'an, as long as he was willing to pay the price, he could destroy South Vietnam Zhao Tuo is convinced of this.

There is no doubt either And the Korean battle that just happened proves Zhao Tuo's worries The Han Dynasty's Lou Ship General Xu Han, commanding a huge fleet that crossed the long coastline and landed in the soft belly of North Korea, dealing a fatal blow to Wei and leading to the collapse of Wei's regime Therefore, Zhao Tuo knew that the only way to maintain the independence of South Vietnam was to maintain it.

It is to let the Han court know that the destruction of South Vietnam will cost a huge price, and this price is not willing to be paid by Chang'an.

Of course, on the other hand, we can't die like North Korea The son of Chang'an was young and vigorous, and he was annoyed by him, regardless of the price, and he would destroy South Vietnam.

That's dead.

Therefore, Zhao Tuo was very clear, obedient and subservient, to him and the South Yue Kingdom.

Very important.

Calling himself emperor as casually as he did back then, such a foolish thing, you can't do it anymore Not only that, but I have to do everything I can to satisfy the Son of Chang'an.

Therefore, this time the envoy to Chang'an has to be a mission.

He ordered many South Vietnamese treasures to be brought with him.

From the specialty lychee to the treasures from overseas, everything is included, and even the national letter is written euphemistically, the dignified king of Nanyue, in the national book, not only calls himself the great elder of the Nanyue barbarians, Fu Chentuo, but also calls the Son of Heaven of Chang'an the king of heaven, and the words are even more humble, full of national letters, are emphasizing, how he Zhao Tuo is how to be obedient, how to be loyal to the Han family, willing to be a Han vassal forever, pay tribute every year, and invite the court every year.

On the other hand, Zhao Tuo began to rebuild the seafaring fleet, and appointed several close generals to lead ships to the sea to explore the way to small overseas countries.

If you really can't resist the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, you can simply let your children and grandchildren run away with wealth and armies, go to those Yidi places, and then establish a new country.

The Son of Heaven of Chang'an can't cross the sea and go to hunt down Chang'an, Weiyang Palace, Xuanshu Palace.

After the envoy of the king of Dongou, the envoy of the king of Nanyue also asked to see Liu Che and presented the letter and gift of Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue.

The gifts were plentiful.

Liu Che just casually looked at the gift list, and found that there were lychees and luxury goods such as glass beads, ivory, and frankincense from overseas.

It's just that there is no rice, which makes Liu Che quite dissatisfied.

You must know that the South Vietnamese State at this time was part of the ruler of Vietnam.

Therefore, in later generations, the Vietnamese monkey climbed the ancestors and presented Zhao Tuojin with the so-called honorific title of Emperor Shengwu Shenzhe of the Open Celestial Body Dao.

It's just that the monkeys probably don't know that Zhao Tuo has nothing to do with them Even the Baiyue tribes at this time had little to do with the monkeys.

Probably the same as the Italian in later generations, although it was a country in the core territory of Rome, the Italian and the ancient Romans were two completely different races Liu Che is too lazy to care about this broken matter in the future.

He was now only concerned about whether the South Vietnamese would have access to the Champa rice of later generations Liu Che is not familiar with the history of the development of rice, and he is not very clear whether there is already Zhancheng rice in this era However, one thing Liu Che can be sure of is that rice is generally the main crop in South Vietnam.

In other words, even if there is no Champa rice, the South Vietnamese country should have its own special rice.

So, Liu Che put down the gift list and said: "After the envoy returns to China, please tell the king of Nanyue, I, and order him to donate rice seeds, and be sure to send 50 stone to all rice seeds in Nanyue."

As a vassal of the Han Dynasty, Nanyue had a natural and unshirkable obligation to pay tribute to the Han Emperor.

Where did the South Vietnamese envoys dare to say half a word Hearing this, he immediately kowtowed: "No" t1706231537:
