According to what the old man said, after nearly a thousand years of protection, he and the others have now begun to have no successors. At the beginning, there were more than 1,300 people here, but now with the passage of time, only less than one person is left. One hundred and fifty people.
So I have been secretly observing outsiders like Wang Yu. In fact, they were discovered when the members of the archaeological team came here on the first night.
It's just that the ancient warriors in the village listened to the language spoken by the other party and did not take action. They recently confirmed that these people were not fake, so they were ready to hand over Zhao Tuo's tomb to the country. Then the responsibility on yourself and others will be gone.
Although they have not left here, they are fully aware of the changes in the outside world.
Wang Yu also told a few people about what happened, and they all looked shocked, especially Li Yang. This was Zhao Tuo's tomb.
According to ancient records: Zhao Tuo was 103 years old when he died. He knew that the Nanyue Kingdom would not last long and would be wiped out by the Han Dynasty sooner or later. He was also worried that his tomb would be robbed and dumped in the wilderness after his death, so he made careful arrangements for his tomb during his lifetime. Therefore, Zhao Tuo’s tomb has not been found so far. I didn’t expect it to be here, and there was a special person guarding it. Li Yang said excitedly.
Speaking of "Zhao Tuo", Li Yang added: "Zhao Tuo" was the King of Wu of South Vietnam. The specific time of his birth is unknown, but he died in 137 BC. He was a native of Zhending County, Hengshan County, and the founder of the South Vietnam Kingdom. He reigned from the third year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (204 BC) to the fourth year of Jianyuan (137 BC).
Li Yang saw the three people listening in fascination and said: "Zhao Tuo" was originally a general of the Qin Dynasty. After Emperor Qin unified the six kingdoms, he began to advance into the lands of Lingnan and Baiyue. "Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao" went south to attack Baiyue.
During the chaos at the end of the Qin Dynasty, in the first year of the Han Dynasty (206 BC), Ren Xiao died of illness during the march. Zhao Tuo conveyed instructions to the troops at various passes in Lingnan to defend themselves in danger, and took the opportunity to kill the Qin Dynasty and place them in the South China Sea. County officials.
After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, in the third year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (204 BC), Zhao Tuo raised troops to annex Guilin County and Xiang County, and established the Nanyue Kingdom in Lingnan, known as the "King of Nanyue Martial Arts".
At the beginning of the establishment of the South Vietnam Kingdom, Zhao Tuo implemented the policy of "harmonizing Baiyue" and introduced the farming technology and advanced culture of the Central Plains at that time. At the same time, he also introduced exotic culture and maritime culture to Lingnan.
In the summer of the eleventh year of Emperor Gaozu (196 BC), Liu Bang sent his official Lu Jia as envoy to South Vietnam to persuade Zhao Tuo to return to the Han Dynasty. Under Lu Jia's persuasion, Zhao Tuo accepted the seal of the King of Nanyue given by Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, surrendered to the Han Dynasty, and became a vassal state of the Han Dynasty.
In the twelfth year of Emperor Gaozu (195 BC), Emperor Gaozu died and Empress Lu came to the throne, and she slowly began to become enemies with Zhao Tuo.
In the seventh year of Empress Lu (181 BC), Empress Lu issued a ban on South Vietnam, after which Zhao Tuo proclaimed himself emperor.
After the first year of Emperor Wen (179 BC), Empress Lu died and Zhao Tuo lost his imperial title. As for why, there are many speculations, but there is no specific explanation.
In the fourth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (137 BC), "Zhao Tuo" passed away, [23] when he was over a hundred years old.
Buried in Panyu (now Guangzhou). During his time in power, he was able to respect Vietnamese customs, implement the policy of harmonizing Baiyue, promote advanced culture and production technology in the Central Plains, basically maintain the stability of the Lingnan region, enhance national integration, and promote the economic and cultural development of South Vietnam.
From the twenty-eighth year of the First Emperor (219 BC), Zhao Tuo served as the deputy commander of Qin Shi Huang's 500,000-strong army that attacked South Vietnam until his death in the fourth year of Jianyuan (137 BC). He ruled Lingnan for a total of 81 years.
As for some of the later records, they cannot be verified, so I will not talk about them. But now that the tomb of "Zhao Tuo" appears here, it means that all the tombs in Guangzhou are also tombs. At this time, Li Yang also introduced the general situation of "King Zhao Tuo Wu" to several people. After all, this is what he depends on for a living, so he will definitely know something about it.
At this point, even Wang Yu had to admire Li Yang's memory. Even if he had clairvoyance, he didn't have such a good brain.
The few people walked and talked and soon arrived at He Feng and others. Wang Yu told the general story again. When they heard that it was the tomb of "King Zhao Tuo Wu", it was the same as He Ya just now. , Li Yang and Xiao Long had exactly the same expressions after hearing this, and they were even stronger.
Especially the captain of the archaeological team is also an old man. However, before Wang Yu had time to recognize him, this person even shed tears of excitement. If the tomb in front of him was really Zhao Tuo's tomb, then everything in his life would be worth it. This can be said to be a historic moment.
Not only will there be a clearer direction for historical research, but one's own honor will also be greatly deepened.
Afterwards, Wang Yu also talked about the idea of several elderly people in the village who wanted to hand over the tomb to the state, and then took He Feng, Mr. Xiao, Mr. Li and the leader of the archaeological team to the place where several elderly people in the village lived. Then he came out by himself.
The four people who went in were all beings who could make the decision, and there was no need for him to stay inside. He had already understood everything he needed to know, and the rest was probably about talking about survival issues.
After all, the people in this village have been guarding Zhao Tuo's tomb for generations. Now that it is about to be opened, some of their problems will also need help.
But this discovery also made Wang Yu particularly happy. This is a complete tomb, and there are countless good things in it. If I look at each one, then I can directly upgrade my eyes.
Then Wang Yu took He Ya, Li Yang and Xiao Long to find some corn, potatoes and sweet potatoes in the village. They went outside to find some firewood and lit it. After the fire burned out, in the eyes of the three of them, He threw all three things into the small fire after the fire.
What are you doing? At this time, Xiao Long asked puzzledly. The remaining two people also had this problem, but Xiao Long took the lead.
Let me make something delicious for you. When I was a child, my family was poor, so I would often eat potatoes, corn and other common crops like this with some friends.
Now that I think about it, I really miss it. Wang Yu said with a smile.
As soon as they talked about food, a few people sat down around the small fire and began to wait for the delicious food Wang Yu mentioned.
About half an hour later, Wang Yu checked that the time was almost up, so he took a stick and started to pull out the corn, potatoes and sweet potatoes that had been thrown in from the sparks that had not yet burned out.
When the three of them saw Wang Yude's actions, they immediately surrounded him, but none of them took action.
Are you sure this dark thing is edible? Li Yang also asked at this time, pointing to the things that Wang Yu took out from the Mars pile.
Then don't eat it, you two. Come on, Xiaoya, eat some corn first, Wang Yu said, and neatly peeled off a corn and handed it to He Ya.
He Ya also opened her mouth and bit into the corn without saying anything.
