The following is the text of the novel (author: Huaxia Jiuzhou) provided for you, please enjoy!

Xiangjun hangs alone outside the two counties of Nanhai and Guilin, and is the southwesternmost county of Daqin. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Han's 150,000 tiger army would definitely not be able to make a detour to pacify Xiang County first, and then turn around and kill Nanhai County. Therefore, Zhang Han sent 50,000 tigers from Ba County to Yan Dao, where Meng Kuo was stationed in Shu County.

Meng Kuo will lead the 50,000 tiger army to set off from the strict road and go straight to Linchen.

In the pre-Qin era, in the entire southwestern part of Great Qin, including Vietnam, except for some indigenous tribes, which are commonly known as Baiyue barbarians, few Central Plains entered. Most of the indigenous tribes are still in the era of Ru Mao drinking blood, and the South China Sea has gradually come out of the state of ignorance because of a large number of Qin into teaching farming and smelting techniques, but Xiangjun, because it is too far away from the center of civilization in the Central Plains, so except for Linchen, where the officials stationed in Linchen by the initial emperor were stationed, most of the rest of the places are endless primeval jungles.

Conquering such an outland, separated by vast primeval jungles and lofty mountains, can be imagined as difficult as you can imagine. And from the strict road to Linchen, it can be said that there is no road left by the front to go, and it is completely necessary to wait for Meng Kuo to open up a road by himself.

This is also why, for the sake of a small Linchen, Hu Hai will ask Zhang Han to give Mengkuo 50,000 tiger troops, and even recruit nearly 30,000 Shu from several counties to follow into Xiang County.

The 30,000 Shu into the labor service is mainly responsible for transporting a large amount of food and medicinal supplies for the army, and at the same time, there are more than 10,000 into the Tiger Ben Army, which has changed from elite soldiers to baggage soldiers, of course, they also serve as engineers.

The most important task given to him by Hu Hai was to find and open up a clear passage connecting Shu County to Xiang County and even the Indochina Peninsula.

The road is not the main thing, the important thing is between Shu County and Xiang County, which is actually Yunnan in later generations. After Yunnan, it was the Indochina Peninsula, Vietnam and other places in later generations. Indochina Peninsula, even if it costs a lot, Hu Hai will include it in the territory of Great Qin. Of course, this time may be five years later, maybe ten years later, but now the wild Vietnamese rice seed is desperately needed by Hu Hai.

This is very important for Great Qin. In the same way, only by occupying the Indochina Peninsula can Daqin open up a long corridor to the west, otherwise it can only cross the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau into the Indian Peninsula. And crossing the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, in this era, is basically equivalent to sending people to death. Many of the crops in the Indian Peninsula are vital to the land of China, especially cotton, which is also a must-have for Huhai.

Now what Meng Kuo has to do is to lead the 50,000 tiger army as an advance army to open up the road and go deep into the Indochina Peninsula to explore the terrain to the greatest extent. In order to make preliminary preparations for the future of Great Qin's dispatch of troops to the Indochina Peninsula. This preparation could not be completed by relying solely on the Black Ice Platform and the Dead Soldiers of the Dragon Guard Mansion.

Because this is the pre-Qin era, there are no thermal weapons, no machine guns, no artillery, and no aircraft and satellites. Dozens and hundreds of dragon guards entered the vast primeval jungle, and they could only be sent to death.

Of course, among Meng Kuo's 50,000 tiger army, there were still two hundred dead soldiers of the Dragon Guard Mansion to follow. These dead soldiers are equipped with simple compasses made of magnets by Hu Hai, and the 50,000 tiger army is their white spoon to rely on, and they are also the eyes and tentacles of the army.

Hu Hai gave Meng Kuo enough time to complete this matter, the battle of the South China Sea did not need him at all, and rushed to Nanhai County from the Yan Road, under the current conditions, it would take at least three months if not half a year. More importantly, crossing the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, where there are few traces, poisonous miasma, and fierce beasts and poisonous insects are rampant, the 50,000 army is not even enough to plug the gaps.

Even if he explored the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, Hu Hai still didn't know how many of the elite of the 50,000 Tiger Ben Army could survive. It wasn't something he could control, and he could only do his best to prepare them logistically enough and foolproof.

But no matter what, even if there are only 10,000 people who can survive, then Hu Hai is worth it. Because of these 10,000 people, they will all be masters of survival in this primeval jungle, and with them as tinder, Hu Hai will be able to train 100,000 or 200,000 elite troops who can adapt to the primeval jungle operations.

When the county guard of Shu County entered the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in Mengkuo, he would be the logistics manager of Mengkuo's army for a long time in the future. Because, if Mengkuo's army disappears in the vast forest, his head will fall to the ground, this is the original words that Hu Hai gave him.

In this era, for the unknown, any step will inevitably require countless heads to spill blood.

It can be expected that this explored road, like the Baqianyue Ancient Road that Zhang Han is walking now, will be paved with blood and white bones.

And, Lao Qin Jin never lacked the courage to face death.

…… In the vast jungle road, Zhang Han's 150,000 tiger army spent a different festival. Two years later, on the second day of October, Zhang Han's army finally arrived at the location of the Ling Canal dug by the First Emperor for three years (near Xing'an County, Guilin in later generations).

Here, the Tiger Ben Army, who had been holding back in the vast jungle for a month, only took less than a stick of incense to annihilate the more than 1,000 soldiers stationed on both sides of the Lingqu, and by the way, captured several ships docked on the side of the Lingqu.

Naturally, a few ships could not be used by Zhang Han's 150,000 troops, not to mention that Zhang Han's subordinates were far more than 150,000. There are also tens of thousands of servitudes. Plenty of grain, grass and baggage.

Seeing Lingqu seeing these buildings, Zhang Han would have too many sighs in his heart, and at the same time, his resentment towards Zhao Tuo and Ziying couldn't stop soaring.

The excavation of the Ling Canal plays an extremely important role in the pacification of the Lingnan region of Daqin. Because through the Ling Canal, the Lou ship can reach the South China Sea relatively quickly, whether from the two counties of Bashu or from Xianyang.

Let's take a look at the march route of the Great Qin Naval Division to the South China Sea after the construction of the Ling Canal.

The Daqinlou boat departs from Xianyang, along the Han River (Han River), goes south downstream, to Xiakou (the place where the Han River flows into the Yangtze River in the later Wuhan), from Xiakou, along the Yangtze River to the southwest, to Dongting Lake in Changsha County, from Dongting Lake (where the Xiangjiang River enters the lake), along the Xiangjiang River to the south, along the Xiangjiang River, to the Lingqu.

From the Ling Canal, it flows westward and enters the Darong River (flowing from north to south); Downstream to the south, into the Lijiang River section, straight into the Guijiang River section, to Guilin County Zhibu Mountain (later Guiping, Guangxi) and Zhongliu County (later Guangxi Wuxuan County). From Bushan, if to the east, it enters the Xijiang section of the South China Sea, to the Pearl River (1ri called the Yuejiang River), and the estuary is in Nanhai County to govern Panyu; If you trace the stream, you can go west, enter the hinterland of Xiang County and reach the county to Linchen.

Not only is the time greatly shortened, but it is basically downstream except for some specific sections of the river. If it weren't for the fact that the construction of the building ship would be difficult to complete for a while and a half, and the building ship required to quell the chaos in the south was naturally not a small number, plus the Chu Di Xiangliang was lying in Zhongyāng, Hu Hai would not have let hundreds of thousands of troops trek through mountains and rivers to travel thousands of miles by land.

Of course, there is also a little advantage to going overland, that is, you can sweep away a thousand rebellions like a bulldozer. By the way, do a good job of the geographical map of the southern territory of Great Qin. This is also a unique opportunity.

With this detailed map, Huhai was able to identify those places that were once large cities in later generations, and could be exploited and resettled in a targeted manner.

interrogating the captives and learning that Ziying and Zhao Tuo do not seem to have received a single bit of news about the arrival of the Qin army so far, this is undoubtedly good news for Zhang Han.

After nearly a month of torture, he was finally able to take a breath, and Zhang Han's army rested by the Lingqu for three years. On the sixth day of October, the 150,000 Tiger Ben army, whose morale and soldiers' mental state had reached their peak, left Lingqu and continued southward. More than 1,000 soldiers were left near the Lingqu to garrison. Bi Jing, if Ziying Dog jumps over the wall in a hurry and destroys the Spirit Canal, then the loss to Daqin cannot be calculated in terms of money and food.

As for the two cities in Guilin County, Zhang Han didn't pay attention to it. As long as Bi Jing cuts off the foundation and pacifies the South China Sea, these two cities are just a piece of cake. Maybe you don't even need a large army to go, you have already surrendered on your own initiative.

…… On October 25 of the first year of Daqin II, Zhao Gang, who had been wandering on the sea for nearly a month, finally returned from Huiji to the fishing port of Panyu in Nanhai County.

Looking at the hazy dark land in the distance, dozens of buildings suddenly let out a cheer, even Zhao Gang, who has always had a cold face, had a smile on his face at this moment.

"Zhao Dajin, but it's here?" In the open cabin, a weak male voice suddenly sounded, and with this, several footsteps sounded. In a moment, three shadows appeared at the door of the cabin.

Two domestic servants in soap clothes dressed up to support a skinny young man in a green robe.

Who is this young man, who is Zhang Liang who gave up Xiang Yu and ran away alone?

It's just that Zhang Liang at this moment, I'm afraid that even if Xiang Liang is there, he won't be able to recognize it if he doesn't look carefully.

The handsome face, which was originally full and round, had completely collapsed at the moment, making the two cheekbones high and protruding, and yes, the two eye sockets that were already puffy and somewhat sunken were even more obvious, like skeletons in shape. The straight back that has always been straight is rickety at the moment, and he is about to gasp for a few steps, thinking that if it weren't for the support of the two servants around him, Zhang Liang couldn't even stand up at this moment.

Zhang Liang looked like he was seriously ill.

But it can indeed be called a serious illness. From the moment Zhang Liang boarded Zhao Ganglou's ship in Huiji, Zhang Liang, who had been living in the Central Plains since he was a child, tasted the taste of taking a boat for the first time.

Seasickness, vomiting, seafood, vomiting again, vomiting without vomiting, vomiting again, Zhang Liang even wondered if he had vomited out all his internal organs. And this torture is more than a month. If he hadn't jumped off, he would definitely have died, he was too unwilling, Zhang Liang was afraid that he would have preferred to jump into the sea to understand himself.

Therefore, Zhang Liang, who was recuperating in the cabin at the moment, heard the movement of the surrounding buildings, and immediately rushed out. He really didn't want to stay on this ship for a moment, if he could do it all over again, Zhang Liang would definitely not choose to follow Zhao Gang to the South China Sea, but chose to wait for death in Huiji, or find a place to hide for so many lives.
