To the south of Zhejiang, it will be in the territory of Ji.

"The land of Jiangdong is the homeland of Wu Yue."

"Wu in the north, with Gusu as the core. The south is Vietnam, and Huiji is the main place. ”

The Qin army set up camp in a vast area of mountains and forests to rest.

The soldiers boiled water to make food, while Zhao Tuo sat in the camp tent, thinking about the situation in Yue Di and considering the next plan.

The so-called more.

According to the bloodline of its monarch, it is a descendant of Dayu Miao, the concubine of Shaokang after Xia, who was sealed in the Huiji area and guarded the worship of Dayu.

Like the ancestors of the Wu Kingdom, the ancestors of Yue Jun were sealed in Huiji, followed the customs, abandoned the Chinese etiquette and clothing, chose tattoos and broken hair, integrated into the local aborigines faster, successfully ruled the local natives, and established the Yue Kingdom.

But later, because Wu Yue was too close, they attacked each other from time to time, resulting in generational grudges.

The feud between the two countries reached its peak when Goujian, the king of Yue, first King Lu of Wu took advantage of the succession of Goujian, the king of Yue, and wanted to take the opportunity to attack Yue.

As a result, he didn't expect Gou Jian to be a powerful character, and when the two armies of Wu and Yue confronted each other, he sent the dead soldiers to line up in three rows, rushed to the front of the Wu army's position, and wiped his neck with the blade in his hand while shouting.

In the gushing of blood, Wu Jun was dumbfounded.

The Vietnamese army took the opportunity to attack the Wu army, defeated it, and wounded the king of Wu.

Before his death, King Wu Lu warned his son-in-law: "Don't forget Yue." ”

In order to avenge his father, the husband is fierce and makes great efforts.

When Gou Jian heard about this, he wanted to strike first, regardless of Fan Li's dissuasion, he took the initiative to attack Wu, but was defeated by the husband, and Gou Jian could only lead 5,000 people to retreat to Huiji, and then he was surrounded by the Wu army.

After that, Gou Jian begged for mercy, and after returning to China, he tried his courage on his salary, and finally staged the drama of "three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu".

The Vietnamese army surrounded Wu Wangfu on Gusu Mountain, and Gou Jian took pity on him as a victor: "I can settle you in Yongdong and let you rule over a hundred families." ”

Wu Wangfu said tragically: "I am old, I can't be a king!" ”

Then he wiped his neck, and the state of Wu perished.

The Yue State annexed the land of the Wu State, and went north to Huaisi, allied with the princes in Xuzhou, accepted the gift of Zhou Tianzi, and ordered him to be the uncle, and the Yue Kingdom reached its peak from then on.

Until a hundred years ago, when the Yue Kingdom passed into the hands of the sixth Sun Yue King Wuyi of Goujian, the Yue King had the heart to fight for hegemony again and went north to attack the Qi State.

Qi Guo took a look, why did this southern barbarian come to beat me?

King Qi Wei didn't want to entangle with the barbarians, so he had a plan and sent an envoy to the king of Yue, Wuyi: "The more you don't cut down Chu, the big king is not the king, and the little is not the uncle." ”

Only by defeating the Chu State can you become the king and hegemon.

Yue Wang Wuyi's mind was a little simple, and when he heard it, he felt that what Qi Guo said made sense, so he turned his head to attack Chu State.

As a result, the Yue Kingdom was held down by the King of Chu Wei and beaten violently, and the Chu people broke the Yue army, killed the Yue King Wuyi, and took all the Wu land until Zhejiang, and the Yue Kingdom perished.

After the destruction of the Yue Kingdom, the descendants of the Yue King scattered and fled, they occupied the south of Zhejiang until Fujian and other places, some called the king, some called the king, each did not admit defeat, the famous ones were Minyue, Ouyue and other Yue countries.

The goal of the Qin army's southward movement this time was to occupy the Yue people in Huiji, the ancestral land of the Yue Kingdom.

According to the information provided by the nobles of Wudi, when Xiong Qi was ordered to pacify Jiangdong last year, he had dealt with this Yue people, and if nothing else, Xiong Qi must have defected to the other party when he went south this time.

"The king of Yue has no friends."

Zhao Tuo muttered the name of the King of Yue, feeling a little strange.

However, the Yue people often take the name of "Wu Mou", but they can't find anything wrong.

Huiji is adjacent to Wudi, the distance is not far, the climate and terrain are much better than Minyue, Dongou and other places in the south, and the difficulties encountered by the Qin army in the south are not great.

However, because he was in the land of the Yue people and the logistics were difficult to support, Zhao Tuo finally only led 20,000 Qin troops south.

Among them, 5,000 soldiers had to be responsible for guarding the people in the rear and escorting grain and grass, so he only had 15,000 troops at his disposal that could be used for battle.

"It is said that there are nearly 100,000 Yue people under the command of King Yue Wuyou, and the number of soldiers who can fight is estimated to reach 30,000 or 40,000, and the Yue people occupy a favorable location, which should not be underestimated. It would be great if Xiong Qi's matter could be resolved peacefully. Once the fight starts, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome. ”

Zhao Tuo frowned, thinking about the next way to deal with it, he was going to send an envoy to negotiate with the Yue King Wuyou first, to see if he could find a way to get the Yue people to take the initiative to hand over Xiong Qi.

If you can not fight, it is naturally best not to fight.

Just as Zhao Tuo was thinking, Li Shang walked into the account to report.

"General, there are traces of those Yue people in the nearby mountains and forests."

Zhao Tuo raised his eyebrows, walked out of the tent, raised his eyes and looked around, and really could see a figure running in the nearby mountains and forests.

These people were tattooed, naked in this summer, running through the mountains and forests, making sounds similar to ape-like roars, like humanoid beasts.

The Qin soldiers in the surrounding camps all looked at those mountain Yue people, either with fear on their faces or with disdain, and some even spat on the ground and scolded: "Barbarians." ”

"The former Yue King Goujian was also the overlord recognized by Zhou Tianzi, and he had allied with the princes, and the Yue people at that time should know the etiquette rules. Why is it that this is only a hundred years after the destruction of the country, and the descendants have all degenerated into barbarians? ”

Zhao Tuo wondered in his heart.

He heard that the Yue people near Huiji were quite good, after all, they were close to the civilized zone. Further south, there are even cannibalistic tribes.

At this time, the black buttocks came over depressedly and shouted, "General, these Yue people are really disgusting. You said that we can't take the initiative to attack, so why don't you let them follow us all the time and monitor us? ”

"I sent a guide to communicate with them before, but it didn't work out yet?"

Zhao Tuo furrowed his eyebrows.

There were many Yue people in their army who had been brought from Wu, and Zhao Tuo hired them with money to take the Qin army to the Yue royal city near Huiji, and at the same time intended to communicate with the Yue king Wuyou through these people.

On the way, the Qin army asked these hired Yue people to shout several times to those compatriots who were following in the mountains and forests, but they never received a reply.

The black buttocks pouted and said: "Those people don't pay attention to it at all, I see, they are just a group of barbarians, even more barbaric than the Chu people." ”

Just as a few people were talking, Shima who followed Zhao Tuo south strode over and reported: "General, the Yue people have sent a messenger." ”

A moment later, Zhao Tuo sat in his tent and received the envoys of the Yue people.

"Vertebral bun."

The first time Zhao Tuo saw the Yue envoy, he noticed the bun on his head.

Compared with those running in the mountains and forests, the naked Yue people. Although the messenger had a sallow face, he was dressed in a bun and decorated with gold and jade, and had a civilized atmosphere.

Although Zhao Tuo always felt that the other party was like an ape in clothes, no matter how funny he looked, the other party's dress was indeed different from those ordinary Yue people outside.

This is a Yue nobleman.

It seems that the upper echelons of the Yue people still maintain some of the civilized customs.

"The envoy of the king of Yue, I have not made an appointment to see General Zhao."

The envoy of the Yue people bowed his hand in a similar manner.

Zhao Tuo's eyes lit up.

This person actually spoke Chu with an accent, looking at his movements, he thought that this person had been to Wu to "study", so he was quite polite.

Zhao Tuo stretched out his hand to return the salute and replied in Chu.

Without too much politeness, this Su Wuyu asked directly: "I don't know what you Qin people are doing with your troops to come to my land, don't you want to start a war with my king?" ”

Zhao Tuo smiled and said: "We are here to capture the rebellious Xiong Qi of my Qin State, and there are still thousands of soldiers under this person's command, so we can only lead troops to take precautions, and there is no malice towards the King of Yue." May I ask the messenger, do you know the whereabouts of the traitor Xiong Qi? ”

"Xiong Qi?"

He laughed and said, "I naturally know that this person has already been captured by my king. It's not impossible for the general to want this person, but I don't know how much money the general is willing to give? ”

Zhao Tuo was stunned.

Xiong Qi, was arrested by these Yue people?

And then they come to themselves and ask for money to change people?

……

The Yue Ren Wang City in the center of Huiji.

"Xiong Bugu, come and have this cup with this king."

The fat King of Yue Wuyou, raised the big wine glass in his hand to toast to Chu Wangqi.

"Bugu is already drunk, and there is no power to drink again, please have mercy on the king."

Chu Wang Qi's face was flushed, and he raised his hand to push the toast of King Yue Wuyou.

King Yue's face darkened, and he said, "Okay, you bear Bugu, do you look down on this king?" This king has the best friends in his life, and he is the fastest to drink and have fun with people. But if you do not drink, you will not be a friend of this king. ”

"King, King Yue's kindness, you can't refuse, please have another drink."

On his side, the man whispered to the king of Chu.

Chu Wang Qi's face was full of shame.

Compared with the ordinary Yue people outside who have broken hair and tattoos, this Yue Wang Wuyou is dressed in clothes, and even wears special royal clothes made by the Yue people, living in a special palace, which is quite noble.

But his gesture of holding a wine glass in one hand and picking his feet with the other has ruined his image as a king.

Especially this Yue Wang Wuyou, who is glaring at him viciously at the moment, that look is extremely fierce.

King Qi of Chu wanted to cry without tears.

He grew up in Xianyang City since he was a child, and the people he came into contact with were all princes and nobles, and the people he interacted with were all great Confucian celebrities.

Even if he defected to the state of Chu, because of his identity, the people he saw by Wang Qi of Chu were all polite to him, and he had never acted so barbarously and bullying.

"I, Xiong Qi, the dignified right prime minister of the Qin State, Changping Jun, the king of the Chu State, will one day be forced to drink by these barbarians."

Chu Wangqi's heart was extremely sad and indignant.

But at this moment, even if he has the power of strategy, there is nothing he can do in the face of the persecution of these savages.

Thinking that he also needed to use these Yue people to evade the pursuit of the Qin people, as well as to prepare for the restoration of the country in the future.

Chu Wangqi could only pick up the wine glass in humiliation, and drank the sour wine that he didn't know what was made of it into his stomach.

"Big ...... The king, the valley is not ...... Drink ......"

After Chu Wangqi drank the first glass of wine tonight, he finally couldn't support it, rolled his eyes, and fell to the ground drunk.

"Hehe, this Xiong Bugu drinks really badly, this king doesn't want to be friends with this kind of person who can't drink."

King Yue Wuyou muttered and drank the wine in his hand in one gulp.

The wine flowed down his beard, wetting his dirty royal robe.

Yue Wang Wuyou simply reached out and pulled up his clothes, revealing his long-haired chest and fat belly, and then he burped comfortably, and turned his head to look at the fuqi who was drinking by himself in the house.

"Pi, you said that Qin is stronger than Chu, does this king want to hand over this Xiong Bugu to those Qin people?"

Su Pi smiled slightly, and said: "As far as I know, the Qin State has already occupied all the Chu land, there is no need for our Yue people to make enemies with them, give this Xiong Qi to the Qin people, we can also take the opportunity to swallow the property he carried, and then arrest those Chu people as slaves, how beautiful." ”

Hearing this, Yue Wang Wuyou remembered the dozens of carts of property that Xiong Qi carried, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

This Xiong Bugu is too stingy, and he brought so many good things, and he was only willing to give him half of it, which is unreasonable.

It's really a friend of the king of Yue and no friends. If you're genuine, you should give it all.

Since you Xiong Bugu don't treat me as a friend, then I, Yue Wang Wuyou, will naturally not treat you as a friend.

"You're right, I've sent someone to find those Qin people, now it's up to them to see what price they can offer."

"Historical Records: The Yue King Goujian Family": King Chuwei raised troops and cut it down, defeated Yue, killed Wang Wuyi, took his hometown Wu to Zhejiang, and broke Qi in Xuzhou in the north. And the more this is scattered, the sons of all clans contend, or for the king, or for the king, on the south of the Yangtze Sea, and subject to Chu.
