The arrival of Lu Tai.

Fearing the tribes of Indochina after a long period of peace, over the years, Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, has sent troops south several times in an attempt to forcibly incorporate the tribes of the peninsula into his territory. And now, although Lü Tai is only the leader of a remnant army, it is still much stronger than the Annan tribe, which has a population of only tens of thousands.

"Father, elders, this guy in Lutai is a sinister little white face, and after pit the king of Nanyue, he still wants to come to Annan to make trouble. You've got to think about it. An Chongguo snorted and got off the wooden building, for Lu Tai's heels, he had already understood clearly from the defeated soldiers of South Vietnam, how could such a sinister villain who took advantage of the chaos marry his precious sister.

An Jiuzhen has two sons and a daughter.

The eldest son An Chongguo, the second son An Zaihe, are all adults, among which An Chongguo is the strong man who proposed to join Qin to resist Lu, a daughter named Meizhu, it is said that when Princess An was pregnant, she felt that the mother of the mussel gave birth to pearls, so she was named Meizhu. For this daughter who was born in his forties, King Annan has always been very pampered, not only him, but even the two brothers An Chongguo and An Zaihe are also very fond of this little sister who is more than ten years younger than him.

"Chongguo, you can't calm down." An Jiuzhen shouted, shaking his head helplessly and sighing. An Chongguo's temper is upright to say, but it is still immature to say it ugly.

The Annan tribes are implementing a loose alliance system, except for the king of Annan, the representatives of the other ministries are the elders here, although An Jiuzhen does not agree with these people's words, but on the surface, it is still necessary to give these tribes a face, otherwise, everyone will not be able to pull their faces, and the alliance will no longer exist.

"Elders, hehe, what Chongguo was worried about just now. In fact, this king is also worried, Lu Tai these days, its food and clothing are provided by my Annan departments, but if the Qin people really call, whether they will be willing to block the Qin people for us, this is still unknown, in case he is like the South Yue country--! An Jiuzhen patted Sandalwood's desk heavily, and said helplessly to the elders.

In terms of acting for people to see, An Jiuzhen is undoubtedly better than his son, and his worries are expressed. Immediately, most of the Annan elders felt a kinship in their hearts. After some deliberation, except for the few tribes who had ambitions to unite with Lütai to steal the throne of Annam, all the other tribes said that they would follow the orders of the king of Annam.

Annam Palace.

Located on the bank of the Red River Valley, this river originating from the high mountains and valleys of Yunnan and flowing through more than 1,500 miles is gradually returning from mania to calm, from rapid to gentle, and it is her existence that makes Annan, a small tribe of only more than 1,000 people. It developed into the first shili on the Indochina Peninsula.

Of course, this kind of "powerful" is only relatively strong, and Annam is powerful compared to other tribes. However, compared with the Nanyue State, which has three counties and more than 200,000 armor, it is weak, and in the same way, the Nanyue State is a local tyrant in Lingnan. And looking at the whole world, it is just a chicken, a dog.

Princess Annan An Meizhu has just passed the year of bamboo shoots, and the girl's body is opening like a flower. She had just gotten up, and she was wearing a brocade trafficked from Shudi, and on her slightly protruding chest, a pair of Beilei were growing upright.

Annam is prolific with sandalwood.

This wood, which is produced in the primeval jungle, is called sandalwood because it gives off a refreshing aroma, and it is said that making utensils from this wood will make people feel good and healthy. An Meizhu is the pearl of the palm of King Annan, and the pampering is naturally extraordinary, and even this sandalwood building is extraordinarily exquisite, so that people can know at first sight that the people who live in it are either rich or expensive.

"Chu'er hasn't come back yet, and my father and the elders don't know what happened to the discussion?" After a night of silence, An Meizhu, who was standing in front of the wooden stairs, frowned slightly, and a pair of hazel eyes flashed with melancholy. No matter how strong this sandalwood building is, it can't make her feel at ease.

Lu Tai is coerced.

This is something that Annan can't resist, and if her father really agrees to the marriage, then she can't marry it.

"Princess, princess, slave maid just heard that the patriarch has decided not to agree to Lu Tai's marriage proposal for the time being, and we can rest easy." A little palace maid ran into the wooden building from the outside and shouted happily.

"Chu'er, what you said is true?" An Meizhu was taken aback and hurriedly asked. Chu'er is her personal maid, and what she likes most is to inquire about gossip.

"It's true, this is what the little maid heard under the king's wooden building after pleasing the mother-in-law in front of her." Chu'er blushed and argued urgently.

Mother-in-law, is the title of the person headed by the attendant in charge of food and drink in Annanluo, Chu'er said this, which made An Meizhu's uneasy heart finally relax temporarily. In fact, in terms of appearance, Lu Tai looks really good, and as a husband, An Meizhu is also satisfied, but what made her resolutely refuse this time was what Lu Tai did all the way from Sihui to Annan.

Probably because he had not been in power for a long time, and because of the huge pressure in his heart, Lu Tai could no longer control his desires, and along the way, he snatched women and forcibly committed adultery, and his notoriety was almost proportional to his marching route.

"It's only temporary, if the Qin people come slowly, I don't know if the eldest brother and second brother can stop Lu Tai." An Meizhu's heart flickered with joy and sorrow.

With the strength of the Qin State, when dealing with a small tribe like Annan, its requirements will definitely be much more tolerant than that of Lu Tai, at least, the Qin State will not forcibly ask the southern tribes of Annan to risk the destruction of the clan and do some impossible things, of course, these primitive tribes on the Indochina Peninsula are not worth the Qin army's big move.

An Meizhu was worried that An Nan's tribe would not be able to compete with Lu Tai.

However, there is no need for her to worry about this, and the Qin army has never stopped chasing and killing Lu Tai.

Wang Shang ordered a partial division to pursue Lütai. It was none other than Yang Yu and Wang Changgong who had suffered in the hands of Lu Tai, a few months ago, Lu Tai chased and killed the Qin State Mission all the way from Nanhai County, and almost forced Yang Yu to fight to the death, if it weren't for Wang Changgong's battle, Yang Yu and Lu Jia's two lives would have been confessed.

Now, the situation has turned, and it has been replaced by Yang Yu and Wang Changgong to chase and kill Lu Tai, of course the two of them will not be merciful, not to mention, after Zhao Tuo's death, the Lingnan war is basically coming to an end, and Lu Tai, the opponent, is also the second largest target after Minyue Wang Wuzhu from the current point of view, and even from the perspective of the threat to the Qin State, Lu Tai is more destructive than Wuzhu.

Elephant County.

The governance of Linchen, which is close to the jurisdiction of the southern tribe of An, the Qin army Yang Yu and Wang Changgong only took five days to occupy Linchen all the way from Sihui.

The Luo Yue people guarding here had been defeated by Yelang's army before this, and Yelang King Zo Luo Ze sent his right-hand man, and Yelang people descended from the Dongjiang River and occupied a large area of land in Xiangjun. Taking the opportunity of the Qin army's crusade against South Vietnam and waiting for an opportunity to expand his strength, Zo Luoze's abacus was extremely shrewd.

――。

Northern.

The road extends in all directions, passing between the prefectures of the Kanto region, and in winter, you can see local officials directing the people to repair the roads and dredge the water conservancy.

The road is easy to navigate, making bartering easier. Water conservancy projects can help people sow the seeds of hope in the coming spring and usher in a good harvest in the new year.

Li Yuan's car left Jiujiang County in early November and headed north, passing through Donghai County, Dang County, and Hedong County all the way back to Guanzhong Chang'an.

The war in the south is going well.

The nervous mood of Li Yuan, the king of Shenwu, was finally relaxed, one south and one north, Zhao Tuo Maodu, the two biggest enemies no longer existed, and the next priority of the Qin State was to continue to pursue the remnants of the anti-Qin Liliang such as Wuzhu, Lütai, and Helianbi, and at the same time, to step up the consolidation of the governance of the newly occupied areas to prevent the recurrence of civil strife such as the Hanzhong riots.

Of course, Li Yuan no longer needs to be personally responsible for these matters, and there are officials like Chen Ping, Li Zheng, and Xiao He to deal with them.

Xiao He has been appointed as the governor of the Qin State, and in this task of being responsible for the supply of grain and straw for Wang Shang's expeditionary army, his performance is quite outstanding, with his ability and the Bashu granary as the basis, it is not difficult to supply an army of no more than 20,000 or 30,000 people.
