In the third year of the first emperor, at the beginning of September, the Jun attacked Tu Sui at night, Tu Sui died, the Nanye army was in turmoil, and the Yue people occupied the Nanye. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In mid-September, Zhao Tuo led 70,000 troops out of Yugan to the south, and Feng Qujian stationed in Yugan and supervised Zhao Tuo's army of grain, grass and ordnance.

On September 16, the Panyu army abandoned Panyu and marched westward; On the 18th, it was invaded by the Minyue tribes.

On the 19th, Zhao Tuo's army and the Jijun army fought on a mountain road southwest of Yugan, and the Jijun cut down trees to block the road, and attacked with a small group of Yue people, and the Zhao Tuo army was tired of coping, and the army was blocked.

On the 20th, Zhao Tuo turned his army to the east, and sent 5,000 light cavalry to the west, killing 3,000 rebels.

On the 23rd, Zhao Tuo met the Junjun army brigade, and the two armies faced each other at the west foot of Zhengping Mountain. On that day, the two armies tested each other, and each other suffered casualties.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Tuo's army stormed the mountain road, the two armies faced each other, the crossbow arrows covered the sky and the sun, the rolling wood and stones shook the sky and the earth, the two armies came and went, the flesh and blood were blurred, the limbs flew sideways, and the battle lasted until dusk. At night, Zhao Tuo set fire to the mountain, and the Yue people retreated.

On the night of the 24th, heavy rain fell in Lingnan, and the marches of the various armies were difficult, and the fighting continued.

"Tell Your Majesty, the Fourteenth Prince, Lang Zhong ordered Wang Xin to meet you." Zhao Gao saw that the First Emperor put down the battle report, and the bamboo slip hurriedly said.

Yingxu went all the way south from Surabaya Pavilion, wearing stars and moons, day and night. In the end, it took more than ten days to arrive at Huiji City, but after arriving at Huiji City, he was told that Feng Quji had gone north to Yugan. Ying Xu could only bite the bullet and go to meet his father: the First Emperor.

"Let them in!" The First Emperor glanced at the empty hall and said.

"Son, Yingxu knocks to see His Majesty the Emperor, minister, Wang Xin knocks to see His Majesty the Emperor!" Ying Xu and Wang Xin bowed their heads and saluted the first emperor who was on the case, and said loudly.

"Your teacher went to Yugan, what are you doing here?" Ying Xu, who was swept away by the First Emperor, asked.

"When the child entered the city, he learned that the teacher had gone to Yugan, and he wanted to go to the city to ask his father for peace, and then go to Yugan to meet the teacher."

"Why don't you stay in Huiji for the time being, and then go to Yugan in a few days!" The First Emperor waved his hand to Yingxu and said.

"The child obeys!" Yingxu saluted and withdrew.

After Ying Xu left, the First Emperor said to Wang Xin:

"The Panyu army is alone in the west, it is very dangerous, Ji Jun and Zhao Tuo are fighting in Zhengping Shanxi, and they are temporarily unable to stop the Panyu army, but the barbarians of Minyue have to be guarded, so you can lead three thousand guards, seven thousand Huiji soldiers, enter Fujian and Yue to contain the Fujian people, do you dare to go?"

"The last general, never give up!" Wang Xin clenched his fists and knelt down on one leg and said.

"Okay, the Qin people are all good men, go down and prepare!"

After Wang Xin exited the hall, the First Emperor asked Zhao Gao:

"Ren Huan, how many days are there left?"

"Your Majesty will be able to come to the meeting in about these two days?"

"Okay, let him come to see me as soon as he arrives!"

In the evening, Yingxu and others were arranged in the post station in Huiji City, the post station was not very large, but there were a total of thirty or forty houses in total, which was just enough for everyone to live.

After meeting the First Emperor, Ying Xu felt that his whole body was very comfortable, and he took Zhang Hu and more than a dozen other people to buy some food such as meat and wine in the city, and rushed back to the post station with leisurely steps.

"Small, toe, see Childe, Childe has something to do though, small!" At the door of the post station, I met a middle-aged man in his thirties with a short stature and a dark complexion, and said to Yingxu who came back with his head bowed.

"You're called Toe"

"Exactly the small"

"Are you from Yue?" Yingxu asked casually.

"The small ancestor is a Yue person, and the first father is a former Chu person, during the battle of Qin and Chu, the small one has a meritorious service in surrendering to Qin, and the county guard will arrange for the small deacon to serve here."

"There are a few injuries in my camp, can you please ask Yicheng to find a good doctor in the city?" Ying Xu arched his hand to his toes and said.

"The little one will go and ask for it immediately, and the son will wait in the camp for a while.

"Okay, you can go and please!"

Looking at the toe after a while, he turned around to ask for a doctor, Yingxu also walked into the post station, and hurried in the rain in the next few days, several people in the guards were unwell, vomiting and diarrhea, and the boy who was saved by himself also began to have a fever this morning, Yingxu didn't dare to be sloppy, there is a shortage of medicine in this era, and a minor illness may kill people.

"Ji, meet you, Childe!"

"Hurry up! How many times have I said it, you don't need to kneel! Ying Xu hurriedly helped Yu Ji up.

Since Yingxu rescued the two siblings that night, everyone was also busy along the way, and he and Yu Ji had just spoken a few words. Once Yingxu overheard Xian Xuan chatting with Yu Ji without disagreeing, and then he realized that the girl who was brought down by himself actually had a famous name "Yu Ji". Ying Xu tossed and turned that night and didn't sleep well, is this Yu Ji the other Yu Ji? If it was, it would be too much of a coincidence, but if not, she is good at sword dancing, and her appearance is even more like a sinking fish and a goose, and she looks like a shy flower. Among the girls that Ying Xu has seen, only Feng Mengqi and Wu Feng and a few others can be compared with her, maybe it's just a coincidence, haha!

"I have already sent someone to ask for a doctor, relax, go and rest for the time being, and when the doctor arrives, I will go over to treat your brother," Ying Xu comforted Yu Ji.

"Childe bother, slave concubine--"

"Don't say that anymore, we are all equal, but we have different responsibilities! You've been kneeling around all day, and it's very troublesome," Ying Xu interrupted Yu Ji and said.

"Go and take care of your brother! I'll be over in a moment. Ying Xu hurriedly sent Yu Ji away. Helping others by yourself is out of your heart, you will not care much about whether you are grateful or not, being worthy of your conscience is your life criterion in your previous life, and it will also be your creed in this life.

In the evening, as soon as Yingxu finished sending the doctor, he informed General Wang Xin to ask for a meeting.

"His Majesty the Emperor ordered me to lead 10,000 troops south into Minyue tomorrow, Son, you have to help me, Lao Wang, I am really unfamiliar with that place, maybe we will burp together" Wang Xin saw Yingxu in the hall and shouted.

"It's the first time I've been here!" Ying Xu said with a crooked mouth.

"If Childe doesn't teach me today, I'll hehe......" Wang Xin said, leaning back in his chair.

Since Wang Xin and Yingxu had reconciled since Jiujiang County, Yingxu had been discussing with him some strategic ideas for Baiyue, a complex tribe that was not closely connected and had a relatively single production structure. Yingxu combined many examples of battles in the past and present lives to talk about a lot of tactical thinking of fighting behind enemy lines, which is to win over a group of friendly people, give benefits, eliminate a group of people who resist to the end, look for the enemy's enemies, and let him become our friends, the main purpose is to make us have more people with common interests and fewer people who are hostile to us. Wang Xindu praised it as the truth. Ying Xu himself felt that he was just talking on paper, but he didn't really want Wang Xin to lead the troops south, so wouldn't he be happy to experiment with his own ideas.

Ying Xu really didn't expect Wang Xin to become like this, when he first met Wang Xinde in Xianyang Palace, this guy was cautious and cautious, and he spoke even more squarely, but he didn't expect to be such a scoundrel after getting acquainted with each other during this time.

So Yingxu and Wang Xin chatted in the hall at night, and Zhang Hu, Han Sui, Zhang Feng, Heihan and others were also called in to listen.

The next day, Ying Xu also talked with Toe Shen for a morning, and then resigned from the post of Yi Cheng in the afternoon, and went down to Ying Xu to lie in the bed, while Zhang Hu, Han Sui, Toe and others began to get busy, and on the third day, Zhang Hu, Han Sui, Toe and Qin Wei pretended to be more than a dozen people were gone, and only Xian Xuan asked Ying Xu.

Press Yingxu to be a big boss behind the scenes in Huiji City, and said that Wang Xin led 10,000 troops out of Huiji into southern Fujian, and arrived in Lingnan Minyue on September 27. Wang Xin interspersed four teams of cavalry with 2,000 cavalry into the Lingnan area, each team should not be separated by more than 10 miles, and the front and rear should not exceed 10 miles from the large camp. The remaining 8,000 were divided into four divisions, with 2,000 in the front, 5,000 in the middle, and more than 100 merchants in various costumes in addition to the 1,000 troops in the rear, as well as hundreds of wagons of all sizes. Wang Xin ordered all parts to set up camp, each other as horns, and the whole army drank boiled water and ate cooked food along the way.

All the way south, until the fifth day of October, the first four teams successively killed more than 5,000 small groups of Yue people, cooperated with the main camp to annihilate 20,000 Yue people who tried to ambush, subdued and bought seven Yue camps, exchanged cotton cloth, pottery, iron and other goods with more than 30 Yue camps, and recruited 6,000 Yue soldiers as the forerunner, promising to break all the women and treasures in the enemy camp All belong to them, and they can use these and the merchants behind them to exchange for Si Jin, pottery and other goods. The Qin army only needs food. Under such a strategy, Wang Xinzhen can be said to have gone all the way, the gods blocked and killed the gods, the Buddha blocked and killed the Buddhas, and the hostile camps in Fujian and Vietnam were frightened, abandoning their homes and fleeing from the villages.
