General Qin

Outside Dongye City, thousands of Qin troops stood in a neat square formation under the command of Qin generals at all levels.

The Qin soldiers held their heads high and their chests high, hoping to show their most energetic side in front of the general.

As for the hundreds of Fujian and Yue mercenaries in the field song, they were not as orderly as the Qin army, but they were also standing in order at this moment.

In addition to being afraid of military law and discipline, today they will also receive material rewards for their expedition to South Vietnam. These Minyue people are naturally happy and will do whatever General Qin asks them to do.

Amid the expectations of these thousands of people, within a short time, well-equipped generals came with short troops, occupied various key roads, and cleared the perimeter to prevent others from approaching.

The territory of Fujian was initially determined, and most of the Fujian and Yue people were conquered by Zhao Tuo. However, it is conceivable that there must be people in the Fujian and Yue people who hate the Qin army. It is impossible to say that there will be passionate young people who do extreme things out of hatred.

Zhao Tuo had heard many cases of conquerors being assassinated by local natives, so he would naturally be prepared for protection.

During his trip this time, he was not only guarded by short soldiers, but also had the brave and fierce Fan Kuai following him, so his safety was guaranteed.

If you want to assassinate him, there is no way!

As all the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were looking forward to it, the general Zhao Tuo was wearing exquisite armor and a gorgeous and majestic crown on his head. His whole body was majestic and he was walking forward, full of heroic spirit.

Especially when accompanied by the generals behind him, he showed his aura as a superior.

"The general is here, so majestic!"

Some Qin soldiers whispered quietly, looking very excited.

Liu Bang, who was standing at the back, couldn't help but raise his head and look at the general Zhao Tuo who was leading the generals.

His eyes were shining with envy.

Becoming a person like Zhao Tuo has been his dream since he was a child.

"Hey, this is what a man should do!"

Liu Bang sighed.

He is a person who refuses to be ordinary. When he was young, he was fond of chivalrous things. After reaching his thirties, he even wanted to make a name for himself. Therefore, he left Fengfei and went to Wei to prepare to be a disciple of the hero Zhang Er. He wanted to have a chance to get ahead and become a superior person in the future.

Little did he know that he made one wrong step at that time, and then the next.

When he arrived in Wei, Liu Bang didn't have a few meals before he was besieged by the Qin army. He had to kick his ears in order to survive, and then his life went downhill.

But Liu Bang was a man who could not be defeated by difficulties. When faced with adversity, his desire to fight remained unquenchable.

I chose the wrong person to seek refuge with back then, but I won’t be wrong now.

"The Qin State unified the whole country. Even the barbarians from all directions were defeated by the Qin army, and there were fierce generals like Zhao Tuo who controlled the country. Previously, the Xiang family rebelled and their entire clan was killed. It seems that the Qin people have settled down in this world. Nai Gong thought If you want to develop, you must work hard and make contributions to Qin!"

"I, Liu Bang, also want to be a Qin general like Zhao Tuo! No, Zhao Tuo is too legendary. I'm afraid I won't be able to achieve his level of success. Then I'll settle for the second best and achieve the status of Cao Shen. , I will be content in this life.”

Cao Shen, whose original title was Wu Da Fu, has returned from South Vietnam. Based on his contribution to defeating the Yellow Dog Tribe, he should be promoted to Zuo Shu Zhang.

Just when Liu Bang secretly set a goal for his future life.

Xiang Ji on the other side opened his eyes wide and stared at Zhao Tuo who was walking onto the military platform surrounded by generals.

He was very young, less than thirty years old, and not very tall. Xiang Ji felt that as long as he got close, he could kill him with a few punches.

But this man, who was not strong, was forced to kill his father and ancestors, and also wiped out the entire Xiang family.

"He can kill him!"

Xiang Ji growled in his heart, holding the sword at his waist.

The hatred of annihilating the nation and destroying the country is irreconcilable.

He imagined himself yelling, then charging up to the Dianjun platform under the eyes of countless people, breaking Zhao Tuo's neck on the spot, and yelling at the astonished Qin soldiers: "The person who killed Tuo is Xiang Yu." also!"

Just thinking about such a scene makes Xiang Ji's blood boil.

He finally endured it.

"I am too far away from Zhao Tuo. There are at least hundreds of people in front of me, and there are thousands of Qin troops around me. Even if I am extremely brave, if I want to rush to the stage to kill Zhao Tuo in this situation, I will never do it." It's possible."

Xiang Ji glanced at the many Qin generals and short soldiers following Zhao Tuo, especially Fan Kuai, who was very strong and was known as the most powerful general in Qin.

He knew he had no chance this time.

Before the rewards were distributed, he was just a commander of the Qin army who had not changed his title. He was not even qualified to stand in the front row, let alone be next to Zhao Tuo.

Unless he is like the Yue Mei Yuan, who was brought to the stage to receive personal commendation from Zhao Tuo for his contribution to killing the leader of the Yellow Dog Tribe.

An idea came to Xiang Ji's head.

"If I can also kill the leader of the South Vietnamese army, will I be personally rewarded by Zhao Tuo? If I can personally kill the King of South Vietnam, I will definitely be able to see Zhao Tuo!"

Xiang Ji suddenly became excited. The higher the Qin army's title, the harder it became to be promoted. He didn't know how long it would take to be promoted to the fifth noble title.

But if he just charged into the battlefield and beheaded enemy generals, he felt he could do it.

In order to have a chance to kill Zhao Tuo, Xiang Ji set a small goal for the upcoming battle in South Vietnam.

"I want to kill the King of Nanyue!"

…

Zhao Tuo praised the thousands of soldiers who fought in the field, and publicly rewarded the young Mei Yuan with precious items such as gold and brown sugar, and also accepted him as a personal guard. This series of actions inspired the Qin soldiers to fight. Everyone longs to have the kind of treatment that Mei Rong has.

After the speech was over, Zhao Tuo left, and Li Shiqi and Cao Shen would then host the subsequent awards and honors.

"Tsk, tsk, I didn't expect that Mei Yi would also come under my command. There are so many talents."

Zhao Tuo valued the Yue boy around him because he had heard his name.

Mei Yuan is not an unknown person, but a famous "one hundred thousand household princes" in the war of the late Qin Dynasty.

Probably he is also the only two 100,000-household princes in Chinese history besides Lu Buwei. You don't need to think about it to know that Mei Rong is a capable person who has passed the test of history.

Mei Wei is still young, which is just right for him to be brainwashed with Qin culture. When he grows up in the future, Zhao Tuo can use Mei Wei's identity as a Yue to guard the southern Yue region. I think it will be better than sending Qin officials from Guanzhong. Much.

The reason why Mei Yuan was brought back to Fujian by Cao Shen was because he came as a proton.

The Mei clan defected to the Qin army. Although they attacked the Yellow Dog Tribe to show their sincerity, sending protons to Zhao Tuo would make both parties feel at ease. This is a normal political method.

Correspondingly, the Qin army also had generals retreating to Hengpu Pass with the Mei family.

"Han Xin led 500 people and retreated to Lingbei with the Mei family, preparing to wait until the battle between our army and the main force of South Vietnam was in full swing to send troops from there, following the same pattern as when we attacked Minyue. This guy is not afraid either. The South Vietnamese saw through it, after all, they had only been fooled once."

Zhao Tuo shook his head.

However, it is not bad for Han Xin and Mei to act as a surprise force. According to the art of war, all warriors must use the right combination to win by surprise. The presence of one more surprise force can add more variables to this war.

With the return of the field song, Zhao Tuo began to work on the upcoming battle against South Vietnam after issuing corresponding rewards.

Recruit soldiers, transfer grain and military supplies for this battle, and dispatch boat divisions to go south.

Wait until time flies into the new year.

In October, the thirty-fourth year of Qin Shihuang.

Outside Dongye City, the Qin army formally swore an oath of surrender.

The war started again.
