The thirty-first year of Qin Shi Huang, Changsha County, Lingling.

Part of Qin's army to conquer Baiyue is gathering here, waiting for the order to attack.

On the flat ground on the edge of a mountain forest, the black tents of the Qin army were endless.

"His mother's, it's all hot. Just sitting still, the clothes can wring out the water, no wonder they all say that Baiyue is not a place for us Central Plains people to stay. ”

A Qin pawn with a Wei Di accent took off his clothes and twisted his sweat, complaining.

"Yes, I heard that during the march yesterday, someone in the next door fainted and foamed at the mouth!"

"Hey, this is still in Changsha County. If you go further south to Xiou and Nanyue, you will have to do it. ”

"There are too many bugs in this place. I only slept one night, and my body was full of bags. ”

The surrounding soldiers echoed each other.

They do not dare to speak ill of this war and of those who started it, and can only vent their complaints and fears on the ground under their feet.

It's September now, and it's already cool in the Central Plains.

Yuedi is extremely hot, not only high temperature, but also high humidity, making it difficult for these Qin soldiers from the Central Plains to adapt to the water, soil and climate here, and they complain one by one.

While everyone was complaining, there was a man lying on a straw mat in the corner, his hands behind his head, and his eyes closed and napping.

Someone saw it and said in surprise: "Peng Zhong, you really have a big heart, you can sleep in this kind of ghost place." ”

Peng Yue opened his eyes, glanced at the resentful robes around him, and said with a smile: "I don't want to find a way to rest, what's the use of just complaining, can you still abandon the army and run home?" ”

Everyone's faces froze.

Beat the gun?

As a deserter?

Even if he knew that there was a poor mountain and bad water in front of Baiyue, there were few people in the Qin army who dared to be deserters.

They die here, at most alone.

If you dare to be a deserter, not only will you be caught and beheaded, but even your parents, wives and children who are far away from home will have to be implicated, and the price will be very heavy.

It is only some people who are selfish, or who feed the whole family without starving, who may have such dangerous thoughts.

"So, complaining is just a waste of effort, it's better to take care of your spirit and go back after the battle as soon as possible."

Peng Yue shook his head and closed his eyes and took a nap again.

As a Wei man, he was also unaccustomed to the climate here, and was afraid of the treacherous environment of the southern Yuedi.

But Peng Yue has a strong belief in his heart.

Ten years ago, under the city of Sanyang.

He saw with his own eyes Wei Qi, the Ningling Jun of Wei, kneeling on the ground, begging for surrender to a young Qin general.

Since then, that scene has been lingering in Peng Yue's mind.

"Big husband, be such a person!"

This was Peng Yue's bold words at that time, and the blood buried deep in his body was ignited by that scene, which was difficult to calm.

In the following time, he was recruited by the Qin army to participate in the Battle of Vaqi, promoted to the rank of duke, and enjoyed a series of treatments different from ordinary Qianshou after returning to his hometown.

The more Peng eats the marrow and knows the taste, the more he wants to climb up.

Later, he was conscripted to participate in the Northern Expedition, but unfortunately he only existed as a civilian man in charge of logistics and transportation, and he was a small transparent person in the war. After a big war, even the title was not mixed to the first level.

This made Peng Yue feel sorry, and the desire to climb up in his heart not only did not disappear, but became stronger and stronger.

This battle of conquering Baiyue was a tribulation for ordinary Qin soldiers, but thinking about it from another angle, isn't this an opportunity to climb up?

"The martial arts marquis was also a prince when he was a prince, but now he has become a high-ranking prince, and even the emperor and princess."

"I, Peng Yue, don't dare to compare with the Marquis of Wugong, but I also have to earn the title of a doctor. Walking on the street in the future, I can be called Dr. Peng by others. ”

Peng Yue set a small goal for himself in his heart.

Kill a few of his Yue people, upgrade his title, and become a human being.

"I've analyzed it. As long as the entire Qin State is not led by the captain of Shuqi County, and others come to lead the troops, it will be a sure win! ”

This time, the commander of the Qin army was Feng Wuxuan, the chief of the Qin army, who had abundant experience in attacking Vietnam, and had won the two great Yue countries of Ganyue and Donou.

As for the commander of their Qin army, it was the Changsha County Guard.

Tu Sui has been here for five years, and he knows himself and his opponent for the Yue people, and he has rich experience.

In Peng Yue's view, this battle is one word.

Steady!

……

"General, the advance ship of our army has entered Lishui (Li River) through the Zero Canal (Ling Canal), and the navigation is smooth, and there is no obstacle along the way."

"Okay, there are zero canals to transport grain and ordnance, this battle will definitely be easier!"

When the deputy general Wang Bao reported the latest news to Tu Sui, Tu Sui, as the deputy general of Fa Yue, happened to receive an official attack order from the coach Feng Wuxue.

This time, the 200,000 troops of the Qin State conquered Baiyue, so they naturally had a corresponding battle plan.

According to the Qin army's understanding of Baiyue in the past few years, the people of Baiyue have few armor and primitive and dilapidated blades, and they are definitely not fully armed opponents of the Qin army in frontal combat.

The Yue people also have their advantages, and they rarely have a city and a capital, and they live between mountains, rivers and valleys. Once they avoided fighting and started a guerrilla war in the mountains and forests with the Qin army, taking advantage of the local geographical and climatic advantages, it was very unfavorable for the Qin army.

In order to avoid falling into a guerrilla war in the mountains and forests with the Yueren, Feng Wuxue and Tu Sui planned to fight fast and take advantage of the intelligence advantage brought by the blockade of news in the early stage to launch a surprise attack and catch the Yuens off guard.

When the Yue people did not react and fled into the mountains and forests, the Qin army broke through its monarch and several powerful Yue tribes in one fell swoop, eliminating the main force of the Yue people.

It would be better if he could capture the Yue people in battle. The Qin army could use its name to carry the prestige of a great victory, and use both appeasement and encirclement and suppression of the Yue people, just like Zhao Tuo's submission to the Yue before.

The first wave of the Qin army's offensive was very important and the most advantageous.

In order to expand the advantage, the 200,000 Qin army was divided into two routes.

The commander Feng Wuxue led an army of 100,000 troops, united with the 5,000 Yue vassals provided by the Dongou Ministry, and the Lou Boat Division from the coast of Jiangdong to attack Minyue.

The deputy general Tu Sui led 100,000 Qin troops from the Lingling and Cangwu areas of Changsha County to the south and stormed Xiou.

Among the Baiyue tribes, the original big countries were Yangyue, Ganyue, Yuyue, Donou, Xiou, Minyue, Nanyue, Luoyue and so on. There are countless large and small Yue tribes left, estimated to have hundreds or thousands, but they are not as powerful as these.

Among them, Yangyue had already been conquered by the Chu State, and after the Qin army destroyed Chu, Feng Wuxuan captured these places, and then destroyed Ganyue.

The Qin general Zhao Tuo took down Yu Yue while chasing the traitor Xiong Qi.

As for Dongou City, two years ago, under Feng Wuxue's management, the whole country was annexed to Daqin.

Therefore, today's Baiyue countries are only Minyue, Xiou, Nanyue and Luoyue.

This time, if the Qin army conquered Baiyue, if it could take Xiou and Minyue in the first time, it would not only be a great shock, but also scare the courage of the remaining Yue people. After that, the Qin army could also attack South Vietnam, the most ferocious of the hundred Yue, from the east and west.

As soon as South Vietnam is broken, the remaining Luo Yue will be lonely and will be captured by the Qin army, which will be a matter of time before it is a matter of time.

For this day, Tu Sui has been preparing for many years.

When he was serving as the county guard of Changsha, he asked the first emperor to mobilize the people to build an artificial ditch between Xiangshui and Lishui. In order to facilitate the Qin army to attack Baiyue in the south, it can better guarantee logistics.

The First Emperor agreed, and after several years of struggle, the Zero Canal was completed last year.

This artificial ditch connecting the two rivers is where Tu Sui's confidence lies in attacking Baiyue.

The heart of the Qin State has been around for a long time!

Now is the time to put it into practice.

Tu Sui looked at the rough map in front of the case.

In his mind, five years ago, at the Great Dynasty Meeting, Zhao Tuo talked in public about the fact that it was more difficult to attack, and it was not as good as the Northern Expedition.

"Hundreds of difficult to attack? Look at me and knock him down! ”

Tu Sui snorted in his nose, turned his head to the generals and said, "Order the whole army to rest for five days, so that the soldiers can adapt to the local climate." After that, train for half a month, so that the soldiers can cooperate properly. ”

"On the fifth day of October, launch a general attack!"
