Just as the prosperous scenes in various places in the Guanzhong of the Great Qin were rapidly spreading towards Hanzhong, Bashu, and Hedong counties outside the Guan, the distant southernmost part of the Great Qin and several counties in South Vietnam were also in full swing.
However, one is a scene of production in full swing, and the other is a scene of searches, conscription, food, and husbands in full swing.
Nanhai County governs Panyu.
In the twenty-seventh year of the First Emperor (219 BC), the First Emperor sent Tu Sui as the chief general and Zhao Tuo as the deputy general to lead an army of 500,000 to pacify Lingnan. Tu Sui was killed by the locals because of his indiscriminate killing of innocent people, which aroused stubborn resistance from the locals. Qin Shihuang
He re-appointed Ren Xiao as the general and led the army together with Zhao Tuo. After four years of hard work, he completed the great cause of pacifying Lingnan in the 32nd year of the First Emperor (214 BC).
After the First Emperor basically pacified South Vietnam, he immediately established the three counties of Nanhai, Guilin and Xiangjun. Nanhai County was the former Guangzhou, Shaozhou, Chaozhou, Huizhou, Zhaoqing, Nanxiong Prefecture and the northern border of Gaozhou Prefecture in Guangdong in later generations, Guangxi
The eastern border of the old Pinyue Prefecture and the southeastern border of Wuzhou Prefecture were its territory, and the land under the jurisdiction of the three counties of Nanyue continued to Vietnam in later generations. A large part of the land in Myanmar had been incorporated into the territory of Daqin at that time and became the territory of Daqin.
In the 500,000-strong army that conquered South Vietnam, except for the more than 200,000 old Qin people who moved to South Vietnam with their families to guard, the remaining more than 300,000 were the sons of slaves from various places in Guanzhong and the elite soldiers of Chu captured after the fall of Chu.
After pacifying South Vietnam, the First Emperor once again ordered the migration of nearly 100,000 households of the Qin people and nearly 300,000 Chu people into South Vietnam in order to dilute the Baiyue barbarians who had an absolute advantage in numbers in several counties in South Vietnam.
Migrating again and again. Every time, it was the Old Qin people who charged forward. They took their families and their families away from their hometown in Guanzhong and entered the land of South Vietnam where the weather was hot and humid. Along the way, tens of thousands of old Qin, old, weak, women and children fell.
On the way to the south.
However, they always resolutely carried out the edict of the First Emperor. They went south, and then went south again to guard the vast southwestern frontier.
Because the Chu people had already adapted to the hot and humid climate in the south, they felt like a fish in water after entering several counties in South Vietnam. They moved all the way south with almost negligible casualties.
From the 32nd year of the First Emperor to the first year of the Second Emperor, it has been five or six years.
The old Qin people who migrated from the south gradually adapted to the hot and humid climate in the south, developed production, built cities, and rested at sunrise and sunset. Earth-shaking changes were taking place in several counties in South Vietnam every day.
Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo faithfully implemented the First Emperor's policy of pacifying the South with gentleness and appeasement. After five or six years of exchanges and integration, the indigenous barbarians in several counties in South Vietnam gradually began to accept the rule of the Qin Dynasty, and were no longer as aggressive as before.
Generally repulsive.
Time is like running water, and time is not forgiving.
Long before he went south to lead the troops, Ren Xiao was already in his sixties. By the time South Vietnam was pacified, he had reached the threshold of ancient times. The hot and humid climate in South Vietnam had always troubled Ren Xiao, the general who led the army to pacify South Vietnam.
Zhao Tuo was a well-known young man in Guanzhong. At the age of nineteen, Zhao Tuo was given the gift of a sword to accompany the First Emperor on his eastern tour. In the twenty-seventh year of the First Emperor (219 BC), Zhao Tuo, who was just twenty-two years old,
He was made deputy commander-in-chief and led an army of 500,000 men to Lingnan with his coach Ren Xiao.
While the First Emperor was still alive, Ren Xiao had been recuperating in the governor's mansion of Panyu City. He rarely participated in the daily affairs of several counties in South Vietnam. All military and political power in several counties in South Vietnam was entrusted to young and promising people by Ren Xiao.
In the hands of his deputy Zhao Tuo.
In the thirty-fourth year of the First Emperor (212 BC), after seven years of campaigning in South Vietnam, the 29-year-old Zhao Tuo returned to Xianyang to report on his duties. The First Emperor agreed to Ren Xiao's request and formally appointed Zhao Tuo as the governor of Nanhai County and the general of Nanhai.
As a result, he entrusted the military and political power of the three counties of South Vietnam to Zhao Tuo, who was highly appreciated.
But Ren Xiao only retained the position of general and stayed in Panyu to rest!
Up to now, Zhao Tuo has been in South Vietnam for ten years!
Zhao Tuo's wife and son are now in Xianyang, and his wife is Hu Hai's twelfth sister, Ying Shu. Ying Shu married Zhao Tuo, a young handsome man who won the trust of the First Emperor. The same First Emperor issued an edict to marry them.
They got married in the twenty-sixth year of the First Emperor (218 BC).
One year after Ying Shu married Zhao Tuo, she gave birth to Zhao Tuo's eldest son, Zhao Mo. In the same year, shortly after Zhao Mo was born, Zhao Tuo was ordered to follow the army to conquer Lingnan.
According to common practice, when the leading general goes on an expedition, all children are not allowed to leave Xianyang. This is not only to ensure that the frontline generals will not rebel, but also to allow the frontline generals to feel at ease in the war.
After the pacification of South Vietnam, Zhao Tuo returned to Xianyang after seven years. At this time, Zhao Mo was already seven years old.
Zhao Tuo had been away on expeditions for many years. When he returned to Xianyang, it was the second time that the First Emperor drove Fusu to the Jiuyuan Army to serve as a supervisor. Zhao Tuo tactfully proposed to the First Emperor that Ying Shu, mother and son, should be sent to him.
They were taken to the South China Sea together, but were rejected by the First Emperor.
Although the First Emperor trusted Zhao Tuo very much, and even everything Zhao Tuo had today was given by the First Emperor, the First Emperor did not make an exception for Zhao Tuo on this issue, even Ren Xiao's family had always been in Xianyang City.
After Zhao Tuo stayed in Xianyang for two months, he returned to South Vietnam again to guard. Although the First Emperor did not allow Zhao Tuo to take away Ying Shu and her son, he did allow Zhao Tuo to take his younger brother Zhao Guang to the South China Sea in order to appease Zhao Tuo.
This year, Zhao Guang has just turned fifteen!
Historically, Zhao Tuo's trip to Xianyang in the thirty-fourth year of the First Emperor's reign was the last time Zhao Tuo returned to Guanzhong in his life. In less than three years, with the sudden death of the First Emperor during his eastern tour, the Great Qin Dynasty
The situation took a turn for the worse like a river.
With the succession of the second emperor Hu Hai, Fusu committed suicide. Two brothers, Meng Tian and Meng Yi, died unjustly in prison. Feng Quji and Feng Jie were forced to commit suicide in unbearable humiliation. Immediately afterwards, the powerful Li Si clan was executed.
Tragic. In less than three years, the great empire that the First Emperor had spent his whole life building fell apart. With the death of Ziying, the Great Qin Empire fell to pieces.
At that time, Ren Xiao was already old, and Zhao Tuo had actually become the supreme commander of hundreds of thousands of Qin soldiers in several counties in South Vietnam. Zhao Tuo remained unmoved when the huge empire building that had brought him endless glory was about to collapse.
.With Xiang Yu's fire in Xianyang, the Qin Empire collapsed. Ying Shu, mother and son, were also missing in the turbulent Xianyang.
After Ren Xiao's death, Zhao Tuo always guarded a corner of the southwest, and a few years later (204 BC) he established himself as King Wu of South Vietnam. Ten years later, Zhao Tuo surrendered to Liu Bang and was named King of South Vietnam by Liu Bang. Until Liu Bang's death
Later calling himself Emperor Wu, Zhao Tuo didn't know if he ever felt guilty for the Great Qin who was buried in the sea of fire.
Today, Zhao Tuo is still the general of Nanhai, and Ren Xiao is still retiring in Panyu City. Zhao Guang is already eighteen years old!
As the most beloved younger brother of Zhao Tuo, the actual helmsman of several counties in the South China Sea, Zhao Guang has a very special status in Panyu City. He does not have any actual official position, because everyone's official position must be conferred by the court. However, as Zhao Guang
Tuo's most beloved younger brother, no one in the entire Nanhai counties could ignore this young man who had no title or name and fawned over him.
The situation changed one rainy night two months ago.
Mengchong, who had disappeared for several months and returned to Nanhai County, brought back news that made more than 200,000 old Qin soldiers in Nanhai ecstatic. The second emperor was awakened by a dream from the first emperor, and Meng Tian and Meng Yi both
He was released by the second emperor, and the traitor Zhao Gao was executed. The second emperor issued three edicts to punish himself, and at the same time stopped the construction of roads and palaces everywhere, released countless civilians in Guanzhong, reduced taxes all over the world, and a series of other things that left everyone dumbfounded.
News that cannot be believed.
The sense of depression and helplessness that had arisen among the old Qin people in several counties in the South China Sea due to the wave of restoration by the survivors of the Six Kingdoms was swept away in an instant. A large number of old Qin people, including the generals of the Meng clan, wrote to the general to request him.
Ren Xiao and South China Sea General Zhao Tuo presented themselves to the emperor and led the army north to quell the rebellion.
Various undercurrents are surging in several counties in the South China Sea that have just entered a period of calm within a few years.
On the fifth day of the sixth lunar month in the first year of the Second Qin Dynasty, General Ren Xiao suddenly vomited blood and died, and then General Zhao Tuo of the South China Sea vomited blood to recuperate due to excessive sadness. Just when several counties in the South China Sea fell into a leaderless place due to this sudden change, General Zhao Tuo of the South China Sea
Zhao Guang, Tuo's younger brother, took out an order written by Zhao Tuo himself. Then with the support of dozens of Baiyue elders and following Zhao Tuo's order, Zhao Guang, who was only 18 years old, traveled to the South China Sea on Zhao Tuo's behalf.
The post of general.
Things changed overnight. Not long after Zhao Guang took over the post of General of the South China Sea, a large number of generals at all levels of the Meng clan were replaced and left idle. They were replaced by many Baiyue barbarians who could not read a single word. Zhao Guang appointed these people to various positions one after another.
Senior generals deployed hundreds of thousands of troops into several counties in the South China Sea.
On June 20, the first year of the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, under the leadership of Meng Chong, more than 100,000 old Qin infantry stationed in Panyu suddenly broke out of camp, intending to go north from Lujiang County and return to Xianyang in Guanzhong. Meng Chong and others
His actions immediately shocked the entire Panyu.
After receiving the news, Zhao Guang led nearly 200,000 troops stationed in Panyu, mostly composed of Chu soldiers and Baiyue barbarians, and met Mengchong's 100,000 troops fifty miles outside Panyu City. The war was about to break out.
At this time, Ziying, the legitimate son of the old master Fusu who disappeared in Xianyang, suddenly appeared in front of the two armies.
Perhaps few of the more than 200,000 troops on Zhao Guang's side, mostly composed of Chu soldiers and Baiyue barbarians, could recognize Ziying, but the more than 100,000 old Qin people on Mengchong's side were no strangers to Ziying.
.
As the only legitimate son of Fusu who is recognized as the successor to the Great Qin throne, Ziying has received a lot of attention in Guanzhong, Xianyang, the Lao Qin people, and the Meng clan. After all, after Fusu succeeded to the throne, as Fusu's only
If nothing unexpected happens, the heir's son, Zi Ying, will definitely be the third emperor of Qin. (To be continued)
