"Brother Hao, we meet again!"
"Yes, Brother Hao, we miss you so much!"
"Brother Hao."
Seeing Gong Ziliang and others greeting him enthusiastically, Zhao Hao stepped forward to give them a hug one by one, then looked around them with a smile and said: "The military situation is urgent, I won't be polite to you, come in first to discuss business matters. !”
"good!"
"no problem!"
"Let's go."
Gong Ziliang and others also knew the situation in the South China Sea, so they were sensible and did not object, and followed Zhao Hao directly into the Chinese army's tent.
At this time, the Chinese army's tent was already filled with Nanhai generals.
These Nanhai generals were all Wang Jian's former subordinates, and now they are loyal to Zhao Hao.
"Master!"
Seeing Zhao Hao come in, all the Nanhai generals stood up and saluted Zhao Hao one after another.
Seeing such a scene, the four brothers Gongziliang looked at each other.
Although they had been in prison before, they had not missed every issue of Daqin Daily, Weekly, and Military News.
He is even more aware of the changes outside.
All these changes are inseparable from Zhao Hao, so they admire Zhao Hao extremely.
Even they were able to come to the South China Sea this time because of Zhao Hao.
As for the rumors of rebellion spread outside, they would not believe it under any circumstances.
Zhao Hao walked straight to the main seat, raised his hand to signal the generals and Gong Ziliang and others to sit down, then turned to look at Wu Nian and said:
"Wu Nian, you know the best about Minyue here, please tell me about Minyue's situation!"
"promise."
Wu Nian raised his hands and made a promise, then looked around the crowd and said:
“Minyue, like Xiou, was founded by the Yue people who fled to the south after Chu destroyed Yue and the local indigenous tribes;
It also adopts the method of tribal alliance and self-governing country;
It's just that Minyue is more powerful than Xiou. Its headquarters has a population of 300,000 and a strength of 50,000. Plus the annexed tribes, the population exceeds 100,000.
There are nearly 100,000 troops that can be mobilized in wartime, so we must not underestimate the enemy! "
Although Wu Nian is the person in charge of the grain and grass camp, he has lived in South Vietnam for more than 20 years and is very familiar with various countries in Baiyue.
After hearing what he said, Young Master Gao was immediately interested: "Before I came here, I read a lot of information about Ouyue and found that the customs of Ouyue are not much different from those of the Central Plains!"
After saying that, he cast his eyes on Wu Nian again and asked curiously: "General Wu, what is the difference between Minyue and Xiou?"
"Back to Third Young Master, there are many different places. For example, Xiou is relatively close to Kuaiji, and it has the greatest influence from Chu Feng and the Central Plains!"
Wu Nian patiently explained:
“As for the people in the Fujian and Yue areas, because they are far away from the Central Plains and have more intermarriages with the Baiyue natives, they are shorter in stature than the people in the Central Plains, and they are used to living close to mountains and rivers;
Not only can they fight over mountains and ridges, but they can also fight with water and drive boats and rafts. They also have tattoo customs that are different from Xiou;
Although Minyue and Xiou are only separated by a few mountains and rivers, their languages are also different and very difficult to understand;
I have lived here for more than 20 years and have been dealing with Yue people since Chu State. It is still difficult to communicate with Fujian and Yue people.
Moreover, the writing among their officials and nobles is also the ancient Yue language, which is difficult for ordinary people to recognize;
Therefore, it is more difficult for us to fight against Minyue than against Xiou. We must recruit a large number of people who understand the official language of Minyue and the surrounding geography, otherwise it will be difficult to unify Baiyue! "
After hearing this, Young Master Gao nodded: "General Wu is right. We should really think more about these difficulties."
At this time, Zhao Hao added: "According to the information from Chen Ping, the Minyue Kingdom has stepped up its alert since we destroyed Xiou. Its main force of 60,000 Yue troops has been gathered near the capital and is ready at any time. to fight; to fight;
If this is the case, it will be a good thing for us. I had planned to face them head-on. As for the mountain forest battle and the water battle, I have ways to deal with it. I am afraid that they will not come out by then! "
"Young Master, it's not that I'm going to throw cold water on you. I'm afraid it won't be easy to face them head-on."
Wu Nian smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "The current king of Minyue is named Wu Zhu. This man is very different from Zou Che. Not only is he wise and brave, but he is also able to conquer battles at the same speed as our Qin Dynasty destroyed Xi'ou;
I'm afraid if there is a slight disadvantage, the defense line will shrink and be unable to retreat, making it even more difficult to capture the Minyue Kingdom."
"hehe!"
Zhao Hao smiled noncommittally, waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about this. I have a way for them to confront us head-on. Send my order to the general, and the army will prepare for three days, and then march towards Fujian and Yue to defeat this country!" "
"promise!"
The generals agreed and then left the tent one after another.
When only the 'four good-for-nothing brothers' were left in the tent, Zhao Hao smiled and said: "Brothers, have you ever thought about engaging in military affairs in that area?"
"Brother Hao, I thought about it before I came here. I plan to form a medical team with General Lu, which will help the soldiers treat their wounds and rescue the wounded!"
Gong Ziliang was the first to speak.
"Okay, then I will appoint the ninth brother as the medical captain and the sixth brother as the deputy captain!"
Zhao Hao readily agreed.
"Thank you, Brother Hao!"
"You're still called Brother Hao, you're called the Supervisor!"
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter what you call it!"
Zhao Hao laughed and waved his hands, then looked at them seriously: "The battlefield is no joke, remember to protect yourself!"
"Don't worry, Brother Hao. While you were away in Xianyang, Guo Wei came to see us and taught us a lot of self-defense skills. It's no problem to deal with a few Vietnamese soldiers!" Gongzi Liang said confidently.
Young Master Jiang Lu also echoed: "Yes, Brother Hao, don't worry, we will never embarrass you!"
"No, you said that my master came to see you and taught you skills?"
Zhao Hao was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Yes, Captain Guo not only taught us, but also taught it to you."
"Cough cough cough"
Before Gong Ziliang could finish what he said, Gongzi Gao on the side coughed twice and interrupted what he wanted to say: "Well, Brother Hao, Rong Lu and I want to serve as grain and grass officers and be responsible for the army's grain and grass supply. Do you think we can do it?" ?”
"this"
Zhao Hao hesitated for a moment, looked at Gongzi Liang and then Gongzi Gao strangely, frowned and said: "Grain and grass are the lifeline of the army, are you sure, third brother? This is no joke!"
"Third brother read a lot of military books in prison. He even read Wang Li's research on military rations several times. There will definitely be no problem if third brother is responsible for the food and grass supplies!"
Young Master Ronglu, who had always been silent, wiped his mouth in a rare move.
Zhao Hao glanced at him, thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, I will appoint the third brother as the food and grass officer of the army, and the twelfth brother as the adjutant to supply the army with food and grass!"
"Thank you, Supervisor!"
Young Master Gao and Young Master Ronglu looked at each other, and then they both raised their hands to Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao waved his hand, then suddenly thought of something, and asked curiously: "Did you have any new news before you left Xianyang? What is happening now with Xianyang City, which I presided over the transformation?"
"Brother Hao, let me tell you. Today's Xianyang City was something we couldn't even imagine before. It's so majestic and majestic. I've never seen such a gorgeous capital city!"
Gong Ziliang danced excitedly and explained to Zhao Hao one by one what he had seen and heard after coming out.
From time to time, the three young masters also added something, which made Zhao Hao nod his head, as happy as a child.
"So, the old Prime Minister and Mr. Zhang did not disappoint me!"
Zhao Hao said with emotion.
Young Master Gao on the side said with some embarrassment: "They are very happy when they look at the rapidly changing capital. They don't try their best. It's just Li Tingwei."
"What's wrong with Li Tingwei?"
Hearing this, Zhao Hao's brows suddenly frowned.
I saw Gong Ziliang sighing and saying: "Li Tingwei seems to have some misunderstandings about Hao Di. In front of the old prime minister and Zhang Shaofu in the court, he scolded Hao Di for his lawlessness and misbehavior. They wantonly condoned it, but the scolding was unpleasant anyway." That’s it”
"Ah!"
Zhao Hao snorted and sneered: "Just scold him, I will argue with him after I return to Xianyang!"
"But."
"What's wrong, third brother?"
Young Master Gao smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest, Brother Hao, we heard on the way here that you rebelled in the South China Sea. It is estimated that this news has spread to Xianyang. With Li Si's character, I am afraid that a group of courtiers will be summoned to impeach you. .”
"It's just impeachment, don't worry about him!"
Zhao Hao flicked his sleeves and said domineeringly: "Anyway, our father is in our hands, and we are 'holding the First Emperor hostage to order the princes.' Who dares to touch us?"
Damn it!
How dare you say this to hold the First Emperor hostage to order the princes!
When the four young masters heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned.
At the same time, the capital of Fujian and Yue.
This is a very unique city. Although it also looks like a village in the city, it is obviously more prosperous than the capital city like the village in Xiou.
Since the founding of the Minyue Kingdom, except for the very beginning, they have settled in the cave for decades. In the following decades, this became an important city-state of the Minyue Kingdom.
Since Wu Zhu took over the throne of Minyue, Minyue has become more and more prosperous, and there is a faint shadow of the rise of ancient Yue.
In particular, his planning of the city is a perfect reflection of his wisdom.
The original capital of Fujian and Yue had low earthen walls on the outside, and houses of all classes inside were criss-crossed. It could not be described as dirty and messy.
Later, Wu Zhu took over the throne and directly mobilized the existing manpower and material resources of Minyue to demolish the capital and rebuild it.
Eventually a large-scale urban village was formed.
The outer walls alone are almost comparable to the Central Plains City Wall. It is nearly ten meters high and stretches for nearly twenty miles. It can accommodate 50,000 core Minyue people.
The streets in the city are also very wide, reasonably laid out, and have a complete drainage system. It is the leading city in the land of Baiyue.
Moreover, there are many shops in the city and trade is frequent. It is the commercial center between Minyue and neighboring countries. Not only the people of Minyue often trade along the coast, but also people from Xiou, Baiyue, and even Daqin people come here to trade.
As for the Minyue Royal Palace, it is not inferior to the Central Plains Palace at all. Not only does it cover a large area, but it is also very luxuriously decorated. The main political hall alone has more than 800 giant white jade-like pillars. As the main beams, its level of luxury is, Even far beyond the Central Plains Palace.
Also because Wu Zhu liked military affairs, a military camp and a training ground were set up on the left and right sides of the palace for Wu Zhu to train his troops and horses in his spare time.
From all the above, it can be seen that Minyue is very different from the South Vietnamese barbarians known in the Central Plains, and that there is no such wise and powerful king.
Qin wanted to unify Baiyue, and Minyue was an obstacle that could not be bypassed. Therefore, the war between Qin and Minyue was undoubtedly a fierce battle.
At this time, in the Minyue Council Hall, Wu Zhu was sitting on a large throne. He glanced at the officials below and said calmly: "According to reports from Ma Lai, the Qin State has the intention to unify Baiyue. Now that Xi'ou has been destroyed, I'm afraid it will Fujian and Vietnam are eyeing me, what do you think? Why don't you tell me?"
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. The national strength of Fujian and Yue is far beyond that of Xi'ou. In addition, the military strength over the years is not much worse than that of the Qin army. Moreover, there are several natural barriers between this place and Qin. They want to cross the mountains to come to Fujian." It’s even more difficult, let alone fighting against Fujian and Yue, which I occupy a favorable location, is simply wishful thinking!”
Prime Minister Ji Su sneered disdainfully.
General Hu Ye went out without fear: "Although the time for the Qin people to destroy Xi'ou was short, the Qin people spent a lot of energy on Xi'ou. As far as I know, when Wang Jian was here, he began to follow Xi'ou. It was not until Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao succeeded Wang Jian that they destroyed Xi'ou. From this, it can be seen that the Qin people have reached their limit in destroying Xi'ou; any attempt to conquer us again is nothing more than a dream!"
Hearing this, Wu Zhu nodded with a calm expression, then looked at a fair-skinned and handsome general and said, "I wonder what General Mu Yang thinks?"
"Your Majesty, as far as I know, it was not Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao who destroyed Xiou, but the Great Qin Master, Zhao Hao!"
The general named Mu Yang saluted calmly.
Wu Zhu and the ministers were stunned for a moment, and then asked with some confusion: "Zhao Hao? Why haven't I heard of this person?"
"Back to the king, Zhao Hao is the son of King Qin Yingzheng. He currently serves as the supervisor of the Nanhai Army. Moreover, he did not destroy Xiou on the basis of Wang Jian, but he destroyed Xiou within a few days on his own. Ou!"
"What!?"
The ministers of Fujian and Yue were all shocked when they heard this.
Xiou was destroyed in a few days. When did Great Qin have such a powerful person?
Finally, there was a slight change on Wu Zhu's face, and he said in a deep voice: "General Mu, can you tell me the details?"
"nature."
Mu Yang readily agreed to Wu Zhu, then took two steps forward and said in front of all the ministers: "Zhao Hao has been in Nanhai for less than two months. In these two months, many things have happened in Nanhai. First of all, Wang Jian's illness, because of his arrival, and Gradual improvement;
Secondly, Wang Jian was assassinated on his way to Shouying, which seemed to be related to him;
Finally, I heard that he also held the King of Qin hostage and forced Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao to rebel."
"This, this, this."
Every word Mu Yang said was like thunder exploding in the political hall, which made Wu Zhu and all the ministers' scalps numb, and they didn't recover for a long time.
"General Muyang, is everything you said true?"
The local tiger was so confident just now that he couldn't help but stand up and question Mu Yang.
Mu Yang glanced at him lightly and said with a smile: "General Fang Hu has lived in the capital for a long time and is unaware of the changes outside. Your news is already out of date."
"Hahaha, God helps me, God helps me, Minyue!"
Before Fang Hu could respond, Prime Minister Ji Su suddenly laughed loudly, shocking all the ministers.
