"General Feng was infected by the water poisonous disease in Yue. It was difficult to eat and drink, and his body was getting thinner and thinner. By the time our army captured Minyue, he could no longer stand up and could only lie on the bed and send orders. General Feng told Xianyang
Report the news of the capture of Minyue and request the emperor to change the generals, and on the other hand, send someone to inform General Tu and ask him not to rush into South Vietnam."
In the residence of Marquis Wugong, Shejian, who served as the commander-in-chief of the Taiwei, was telling Zhao Tuo and many of his friends present the specific details of the defeat of the Southern Expedition.
"It's a pity that there is a long distance between Minyue and Xiou, and the road conditions in Yue are difficult. General Tu's side has entered the depths of Yue before the envoy has conveyed General Feng's order. It coincides with the arrival of the rainy season, and encounters epidemics and South Vietnam.
Our army was attacked by Vietnamese soldiers and retreated in defeat. On the way back, we were ambushed by Yue soldiers and General Tu was killed."
"The South Vietnamese and the Xiou Yue who hid in the mountains and forests launched a counterattack together. Our army lost its leader and its morale collapsed. We had no choice but to flee to Changsha County in a hurry. Many people were killed and captured by the Yue along the way. According to Deputy General Wang Bao
According to statistics, there are only about 10,000 soldiers who can escape back to Lingling, and only about 20,000 civilians."
There were only 30,000 Qin troops left out of one hundred thousand.
Everyone exclaimed when they heard this number.
Black Hips even jumped up and said, "Doesn't that mean that 70,000 soldiers died in Yue? That's 70,000 people! I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"
Li Shiqi shook his head and sighed: "Since the first battle against Chu, our army was defeated due to the rebel rebellion. After so many years, this is the first time we have suffered such a disastrous defeat."
Li Shang echoed his brother: "That's right. Even if Shuqi Commandery was defeated by the Southwest Yi, so few people would die. That would be too tragic."
"It is really rare for a general and his deputy to die together in Vietnam."
Bu Lu silently listened to everyone's sighs and resentments.
Two thousand years ago, no one ate sashimi.
"Baiyue, it's hard to fight!"
It is unreasonable for a mere Yue barbarian to kill Qin generals and defeat Sui.
"I already know Zhao Tuo's crime."
"The land has less water and the climate is cold and humid. People at that time did not have the habit of eating meat. Eating raw meat was commonplace, let alone drinking hot water. It is very abnormal to be infected with parasites or something."
The infection rate of parasites in that era was very low, and a few people could escape.
Just like when Li Xin was defeated by 700,000 soldiers in Chu, in the seventh year, Qin sent 800,000 soldiers to destroy Chu.
A small court meeting to decide the future direction of Qin was held very quickly.
"Of course, Zhao Tuo is to blame for the defeat in this battle!"
All the spearheads were pointed at Zhao Tuo.
The capable general brought down the emperor's empire.
"But what I want to know more is that among the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, no one is willing to lead the army southward and defeat Baiyue for me!"
"Water Gu... there are no parasites in the year!"
The crime is betraying my trust.
Zhao Tuo's Western Route Army alone suffered a total of 10,000 deaths.
Yes.
That time, Zhao Tuo and Feng Wuze both died in Yue, and Tu Sui suffered a minor defeat.
In fact, when I chased Xiong Qi and retreated into Yue territory after the Southern Expedition, I was not prepared for this. I asked the soldiers to boil water to drink, and they ate raw food, so they were not afraid of being infected with parasites and diseases.
Everyone acted with their heads high at that time, and they never dared to talk nonsense. They were afraid of being noticed by the emperor and being angered.
Eighth, the death of Feng Wuze in the Southern Expedition is even more heartbreaking.
There are a few generals who would be willing to waste manpower and material resources on something like that.
And Zhao Tuo is a reasonable person who cannot bear any responsibilities.
"Old Feng, Old Feng, did you ever think that after we said goodbye to each other in Huai River four years later, we would never see each other again? You still thought about waiting for him to return to Xianyang, so that you could talk and laugh over wine!"
Just like Nan Zheng knows me.
With the character of the First Emperor, it was absolutely impossible for him to tolerate that small defeat.
Qi Ze regretted Zhao Tuo's death.
Compared with the subsequent scenes of boasting about Bu Luxia and Zhao Tuo's achievements, the Qin ministers now turned their attention and accused them with indignation.
The emperor was very angry.
In history, before the disastrous defeat of Zhao Tuo and Bu Lu, Qin Shihuang sent Qin generals to conduct the seventh divination of Zhao Tuo.
…
"Although Lao Feng died of being defeated by the West Route Army, the key point is that I was poisoned by the Yue ground water poison and my body was cured."
Thinking of that, Nan Zheng shuddered.
Although it is possible to hide such a small thing, at most it can be hidden for a while, even for a while.
And my southern expedition.
Facing that rare small defeat before conquering Chu, the First Emperor had only one thought in his mind.
Even though Bu Lu bore a small share of the responsibility for that defeat, in the personal aspect, I have no gratitude towards Nan Zheng after all. The two of us get along like brothers.
Seeing the indignation of the ministers, the First Emperor had an expression on his face, and the anger in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.
Nanzheng was secretly vigilant.
Feng Wuze destroyed Minyue and died of illness. What kind of responsibility does he have? Naturally, Shaoyan is bad.
Nan Zheng bit his lip, a look of youth flashed in his eyes.
A painful massacre led to a disastrous defeat.
I was also heartbroken about that small defeat.
revenge!
Killing more people and occupying more land, only in this way can I wash away the shame I have suffered.
As for eating raw food, this is even more abnormal. It is eaten by everyone from the emperor and nobles to the common people in Guizhou.
When Wang Jian destroyed Chu, he led his troops in the Southern Expedition to Huaiyin and joined forces with Feng Wuze to fight against Xiang Yan.
Others like Chen Ping, Zhong Limei, Lu Wan and others also sighed.
Ten thousand people, that’s a whole ten thousand young people, what an exciting number!
The news of Tu Sui's minor defeat in Yue region only existed in the court for the time being, and was not publicized to the people at the bottom of Guizhou Province.
The First Emperor sat under the imperial couch, scanning the ministers in the palace with indifferent eyes.
After all, because of the destruction of Minyue, the emperor had just announced that Xiaoyou would be in heaven for eight days, which was a bad way of publicizing my great achievements.
Not Ren Xiao.
Nan Zheng knew what kind of parasite Feng Wuze was infected with, but just hearing that I could spit out bugs from my mouth made my whole body numb and hard.
Drinking hot water was a common thing in that era.
As for Ren Xiao, who had the least affection for Zhao Tuo, his eyes were red at the moment and he kept drinking.
The emperor wants to fight back!
Compared with the calm situation among the people, the entire Qin Dynasty's court seemed to be pressed down by a heavy mountain, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it made people breathless.
"Although Zhao Tuo killed the king of Xi'ou, he did not pacify Xi'ou. Since the Yue people were not completely wiped out, I retreated rashly, fell into a treacherous plot, and was ambushed by the Yue people. This defeat was all due to
my responsibility!"
There is always no one to take responsibility for a defeat.
But for the current First Emperor, who will bear the responsibility for that war is not what I think.
However, there are only two months left before the general and deputy generals are all dead. Ten thousand people died in Tu Sui in Yue.
"You should always be vigilant about Lao Feng's matter. You will definitely drink hot water and eat raw food again these days. And you have to find a way to persuade the emperor to publicize the matter. If you still know that many people died there,
.The Qin army could not avoid it last time..."
But in the cool southern swamps and lakes, there are not a few terrible parasites.
It's just that a small number of people may not be infected with roundworms, and the damage and fatality are generally low.
It's just that the rule has not been widely spread.
When word spread about this incident, my emperor still became a joke.
Zhao Tuo is not guilty.
In addition, Feng Wuze previously pacified the southern border of the Chu Kingdom, destroyed Qianyue, and conquered Dongou, showing his extraordinary military capabilities. It made Bu Lu think that I was the pillar of the Qin State. Who knew that in the battle against Yue, Feng Wuze
Zhao actually died together with Zhao Tuo.
I will definitely send Xiaojun Bu Lu again.
Regardless of whether we were from Wei or Chu, ever since we surrendered to Tu Sui and were promoted to a noble title and enjoyed the treatment of low-ranking officials and generous salaries. We already regard ourselves as a member of the Qin State, so we will naturally feel sorry for that small defeat.
Deplore.
Even Confucius said: "Eating is aversion to essence, and eating food is aversion to fineness."
Ten thousand soldiers died in Vietnam.
For example, schistosomiasis only exists in the swamps of the south, and is almost non-existent in the north, so many people are unprepared for it.
After all, a small army of tens of thousands needs to drink cold water. How much wood and manpower will be consumed this time?
At that time, Bu Luxia was bullying her because of her age, but instead tried her best to cooperate with Nanzheng. Finally, she defeated Xiong Qi by the Huaihe River and defeated Xiang Yan. This made Nanzheng have a very bad impression of Feng Wuze.
