The Truth (4)

One day in 208 B.C., Ren Huan, the commander of the Nanhai Prefecture of the Great Qin Empire, was so ill that it was difficult for him to leave his bed, and he immediately thought of a lot.

"Ren Qing, do you know why I chose you alone, instead of Meng Tian, Wang Ben, Zhang Han, Li Xin, etc.; and once again appoint you as the commander of nearly 500,000 soldiers of the Southern Expeditionary Army of my empire?"

Ren Huan, who bowed forward, cautiously carried a reverent mood, and said to the king in front of him, whose heart was like a giant sun: "Your Majesty, the minister has neither the ability of General Meng Tian's Northern Huns, nor the ability to advance or retreat, nor the merit of the Marquis of Tongwu to conquer the Six Kingdoms; Only the horse leather shroud can repay His Majesty's kindness. ”

"Hahaha, no wonder the generals have such expressions on you being appointed as the commander of the Southern Expedition, but I have made up my mind------ I remember when I was the Great Qin Wu King, the Wu King said to Xiang Gan Mao: "The widow wants to allow the car to pass through the three rivers to peep into the Zhou room, and the widow is immortal", and then he asked Zhou Tianzi for Jiuding. According to the records of the historians at the time, whether it was the former ministers of the Western Zhou Dynasty or the generals of the Qin Dynasty at the scene, they all watched King Wu raise the throne with a wait-and-see and shocked expression. But there is only one person, who does not hesitate to lose the favor of King Wu, and he also has to bitterly admonish King Qin to raise the crown, he seems to have the same surname as you. Qin Shi Huang stopped at a rockery, looking at the various rockeries weighing 10,000 catties, and couldn't help but think of the one who had the greatest strength among the previous kings of the Great Qin, and was bent on destroying the monarch of the Zhou Dynasty and replacing him, and being the martial king who dared not dare to do what the former vassal states dared to do.

"It is the ancestor of the family who is contemptible, appreciated by King Wu, and is reused together with Wu Shu and Meng Shuo, who are also strong men, and is also a high-ranking official. Ren Huan bent down and replied cautiously.

"Zhao Gao, you stand down, you are not allowed to approach within ten zhang, and the offender will be killed!" Qin Shi Huang paused, and suddenly turned to Zhao Gao, the attendant who was always around him, and said in a deep voice.

"No!" Zhao Gao stepped back cautiously, and the order was quickly conveyed to the surrounding guards, maids, and eunuchs, and the crowd dispersed at once.

"I am the Great Qin, the ministers are like clouds and the generals are like rain, and there is no shortage of talents among them, but I love you------- you led the troops to attack Lingnan for the first time, and the reason is not you, but the water and soil of the soldiers. After you, I appointed Wei Tu Sui and Zhao Tuo to lead an army of 500,000 to march to the Yue people in five directions, but I didn't want the three-year campaign to end in failure, wasting national strength in vain, and even losing one of the main generals. Just imagine, if the nearly 600,000 troops before and after were replaced by the Central Plains, countless countries would have been destroyed. Qin Law is in front, I believe that all the soldiers must have done their best------- this time your strategy, I want to use it, and even more so: to raze the raze, and to use both grace and power. South Vietnam is no better than other places, and the whole of Lingnan is a place that will be annexed by the Great Qin. When you pacify Lingnan, it is the time when you are in the rank of Jiuqing, and the king of Wu will give you the glory of your ancestors, and you can also obtain it with military industry and obtain a higher status. Qin Shi Huang said quietly.

The memory of Ah Fang Gong reappeared in Ren Huan's mind on the hospital bed, and the next scene immediately made him feel a hundred times more emotional.

"Ren Huan, two more copies of my secret order are hidden in the custody of the children of the deputy attendant Ying, and they cannot be opened in person unless they have to. I have ordered the warlock to choose a feng shui treasure to be buried in the land: the tripod is put into the ground, and the stele sees the sun! Remember, it is about the fate of the descendants of China, and it is also about the eternal survival of Great Qin. "I had just been appointed by the First Emperor as the lieutenant of Nanhai County, the "First Lieutenant of the Southeast", and immediately read a secret edict given by the edict.

"If the county lieutenant is okay, after the delivery of the army's belongings, we will set off for Xianyang to resume our lives, while the guards will stay. The edict envoy said respectfully.

Ren Huan raised his head and first looked at the deputy envoy, and what he saw from his eyes was a look that only a dead soldier could have, and then looked at the edict envoy, and said politely: "Fortunately, the edict envoy has come thousands of miles to this southern barbarian land-------"

"Zhao Tuo takes the order!" Ren Huan shouted with one hand supporting his body and holding a Qin edict high in the other. The voice is high, but the middle qi is insufficient.

Zhao Tuo was stunned for a moment, he knew that since the First Emperor died of illness on the fifth eastern tour, Qin II Hu Hai succeeded to the throne, and the eldest son Fusu and General Meng were given to death and other events were reported to Lingnan, as a firm supporter of the eldest son of Fusu, Ren Huan immediately secretly sent people to Xianyang to learn the truth. It turned out that the death of the eldest son Fusu and General Meng was a conspiracy, and Li Si, the former prime minister who finally participated in the conspiracy, could not escape the calculation of the eunuch Zhao Gao, and died at his hands, and Xianyang had fallen into the hands of Zhao Gao's villain. At that time, all the soldiers in the army were extremely indignant, and they all voluntarily asked Ying to go north, vowing to kill the traitorous villain Zhao Gao and the usurper Hu Hai, to avenge the eldest son Fusu and General Meng, and then set foot on the rebels and reshape the Great Qin Empire. But such a thing disappeared under a secret decree, although the first emperor collapsed, the residual power still existed------- Lingnan should not be chaotic, let alone gained and lost.

At the same time, when the princes were fighting, they sent the dead soldiers in the army to the land of the former Qin, and tried their best to move the people of Great Qin into Lingnan, so as to avoid disasters and supplement the national policy of "harmony and Baiyue".

Now that the general is critically ill, taking out the land is another secret decree, could it be that this is also the handwriting of the First Emperor? Zhao Tuo's mind couldn't help but flash many thoughts.

"Zhao Tuo takes the order!" Seeing that Zhao Tuo was still in a daze, the county lieutenant Ren Huan did not kneel down to accept the order, so he raised his voice, and his body couldn't help shaking.

"Xiaochen, Ren Longchuan County Order, Zhao Tuo takes the order!" Zhao Tuo saw that the county lieutenant was not joking, and then observed the surroundings, recalling that as soon as he entered the county lieutenant's private bedroom, the slaves and maids around him all withdrew from the door, and stayed away from the door and window a few steps, indicating that the content of the secret edict was very secret.

"This is the secret edict of the First Emperor, my emperor, my emperor------ the emperor of the ages! Hate the heavens and not bless my emperor and Great Qin!" After Ren Huan finished speaking, he kept silent and motioned for Zhao Tuo to come up and check it himself.

Zhao Tuo carefully took the secret edict on the black background and the yellow edge, first bowed respectfully to the north, and then got up and opened it: Fengtian Carrier------ Zhao Tuo's eyes suddenly widened like the eyes of two goldfish, round and about to come out, and his big mouth couldn't make a sound, and after a while, his body began to tremble, and tears slid down his face like a fountain, and muttered: "Heaven does not favor my Great Qin, I do not respect my emperor!"

"In the Jiuding boundary monument, all of them are my Huaxia solid soil, and those who enter my Huaxia should be regarded as the people of Huaxia, otherwise they are enemies!" Zhao Tuo said loudly.
