"I was tired and tired of fighting with people on the battlefield back then, and finally got to the doctor's title, and now my kid became a doctor at the age of six, and I don't know what title the emperor will give him after fighting Baiyue. Sure enough, in life, a good baby is the most important thing. ”

When Zhao Tuo received the news from Xianyang, he sighed at the reward of the first emperor.

He envied Li You back then that he had a good father, and he could have a senior title as soon as he came out.

Unexpectedly, he himself has now become a good father for the descendants of Enyin.

Zhao Tuo shook his head, and then shifted his focus to the letters from his wife and Chen Ping's subordinates.

In addition to caring for him in the letter, Yingyin Yan also babbled a lot about her son and daughter.

Zhao Che is six years old.

According to the concept of this era, it is generally "at the age of eight to go out and learn small arts". When children reach the age of eight, they begin to formally study.

Zhao Tuo felt that this age was a little late, and the six-year-old doll in the future would be able to go to the first grade, and by the time he was eight years old, he would be able to read the third grade.

With Zhao Che's talent and naughty character, it is better to find someone to control and impart knowledge earlier.

Otherwise, Zhao Tuo is not around, and I don't know what this kid will be used to in a few years.

Zhao Tuo was also afraid that he would be away from home for too long, and the emperor or Yingyin Yan would find some Legalist disciples for Zhao Che, or people from other schools to be teachers, and what his son would learn in the future would be even more uncontrollable.

Education is a very important thing.

Instead of letting the future uncontrollable, it is better to set the direction yourself.

Zhao Tuo had already discussed with his wife before he set out on the expedition, and when Zhao Che was six years old, he let him learn from his teacher.

As for the candidate for the teacher, Zhao Tuo has already decided for Zhao Che.

Zhang Cang.

Although this fat man is a little lascivious, he is a close disciple of Xunzi and a junior disciple of Li Si, and he is really knowledgeable.

Zhang Cang is famous, and he has a friendship with Zhao Tuo, so Zhao Che worships him as a teacher, and he can't find fault at all levels.

And Zhang Cang is not only proficient in Confucianism, but also good at mathematics, and is the top mathematician of this era. Under the guidance of Zhao Tuo, he taught himself physics, and he was an ideal teacher because he was knowledgeable and flexible.

"Let Zhang Cang teach, my kid can probably have more scientific literacy, and in this way, my kid can also be said to be Xunzi's apprentice."

Thinking of this, Zhao Tuo was quite relieved.

turned to look at the news sent secretly by Chen Ping, Shima and others.

Xianyang's court is now very stable, compared to the history of the first emperor to tour the east for a while, to build a palace, and to build the Great Wall for a while, all kinds of construction to toss the people.

In this time and space, the First Emperor suffered a spine in Pengcheng on his first eastern tour, and promised Zhao Tuo that he had no intention of going out now, and only stayed quietly in Xianyang Qin Palace to cultivate immortals.

The palace is not repaired, and the Great Wall is even more because all the ethnic groups in the north of the country have been subdued by the Qin army, and there is no sign of construction, so everything can be said to be fine.

"Cultivating immortals can really calm people's hearts, and the emperor's desire is much smaller than in history."

Zhao Tuo praised it, and thought of another thing that Chen Ping said in the letter.

Li Si's second son Li Yu often walked around the Prince's Mansion and found fault with Chen Ping, although Chen Ping was witty and resolved the past, he showed hostility after all.

Zhao Tuo frowned.

Li Si is Fusu's father-in-law, Li is Fusu's second brother-in-law, and now Fusu is made the crown prince, and the Li family supports him clearly, and it is normal for them to go back and forth with each other. It's just that Li Yu is hostile to Chen Ping, so it's a little troublesome.

Is this what Li Yu personally means?

Or is it that Li Si can't get used to my people by Fusu's side, and wants Li Yu to drive Chen Ping away, so that Li can influence Fusu alone?

Zhao Tuo thought for a while, shook his head again, and said: "It's good to endure it, Li Si is already sixty-six years old, and he will retire long ago in the next generation." Calculating the time, he doesn't have a few years to live, let him Li Shi sigh again, in a few years, Li Si will die, and Li Yu will not worry about this kind of character. ”

Thinking about it like this, Zhao Tuo was relieved in his heart, aside from the Li family's factors, the entire Xianyang, whether it was his family or the country, reassured him.

Without worries, Zhao Tuo's eyes were once again on the war in front of him.

When Cao Shen led the field song to fight in South Vietnam, Zhao Tuo was not idle.

Throughout the rainy season in Vietnam, he has been careful to prevent the occurrence of epidemics.

Unfortunately, no matter how careful you are, you can't be foolproof.

There were more than 100,000 soldiers of the Qin army plus people, and it was inevitable that there would be some illness and unaccustomed conditions during the rainy season in Yuedi.

Fortunately, Zhao Tuo was prepared, and once someone was found to be infected, he would immediately isolate and dispose of it to avoid infecting others in the barracks. Those who are infected can drink wormwood and artemisia water brought by Qin Jun, as well as some disease-prevention earthworks of the local Yue people for treatment.

Under the guarantee of the perfect system, during the rainy season in the entire Yuedi, there were about three or four thousand people in the Qin army who had epidemics and were not adapted to the soil and water.

In the end, the number of people who died was around 100.

This number sounds like a lot, compared to the huge number of troops, and the number of infected deaths in the previous Tu Sui army, it can be regarded as very well controlled.

And this is the first rainy season that most Qin people have spent in Yuedi, and these symptoms are inevitable. By the time the Qin people become accustomed to the climate in the south next year, the situation will be much better.

In addition to carrying the epidemic, the Qin army did not stop the pace of infrastructure construction throughout the rainy season, and the road leading to Lujiang County and Dongou was repaired again, and a road from Dongye City (where the former Minyue royal city was located) to Nanyue was also excavated, so that the Qin army could have corresponding logistics support when it went westward.

In addition to building roads, Zhao Tuo also handled the occupation of Minyue well.

For most of the year, he used various luxury goods unique to the Qin State to win over and corrupt the nobles of the Minyue tribes.

In some cases, sugar-coated cannonballs can be more lethal than spears and halberds, and in the face of Zhao Tuo's money offensive, almost ninety percent of the Minyue nobles quickly became spiritual Great Qin people.

They like the soft and silky satin cloth produced in Qin, they like to eat brown sugar, which is regarded as a luxury food, and some even like the unique game from Qin, Qin brand.

Speaking the Qin language, wearing Qin clothes, and even sending the clan neutrons to the Qin army to serve the generals became a fashion for the nobles of the Minyue tribes.

Muqiang psychology is an innate thing for human beings.

Except for the upper-class nobles, because of Zhao Tuo's deliberate restraints, the Qin army did not infringe on the ordinary Yue people.

Those who dared to kill the Vietnamese indiscriminately were beheaded on the spot according to military law.

Zhao Tuo's restraint policy and Huairou measures made the entire Minyue region up to the nobles of all tribes and down to the ordinary Yue people of all ethnic groups quickly adapt to the rule of the Qin people in most of the half a year, and there was no hidden danger of rebellion.

Even after seeing all kinds of good things brought by the Qin people, many Minyue people were already riveted and ready to sign up for the Qin army's expedition to South Vietnam, so that they could use the heads of the South Vietnamese people in exchange for rewards.

"The general's gentle strategy, Gao!"

Deputy General Yin Tong sincerely admired that the Minyue people, who were originally hostile to the Qin army, became die-hard fans of the Qin State in less than a year, and he was amazed by such means.

Zhao Tuo just said with a little meaning: "War does not have to be waged by force. ”

In his opinion, this is only the beginning, and the conquest of backward civilizations by advanced civilizations, in addition to the productive forces, also has cultural erosion.

In the future, a group of Confucian scholars from the Kanto region can also be transferred to the south to spread the Central Plains culture to these Yue barbarians, so that the Yue can accelerate their integration into the Qin State. It is also good to realize the great ideals of the Confucian scholars who are under the world, whether it is the king's land, the shore of the land, and the king's ministers.

Now that Minyue has been stabilized, the war against South Vietnam is on the agenda.

Soon news came from South Vietnam.

"The Mei clan Yue people joined our Great Qin, and together with our army, they raided the Yellow Dog Department of South Vietnam, killing more than 2,000 of its leaders and clansmen, and South Vietnam was shaken."

"What a Cao ginseng, things are well done."

Zhao Tuo expressed satisfaction with this and approved Cao Shen's next action.

"The South Vietnamese Yellow Dog Department has been defeated, and the South Vietnamese tribes will definitely not be able to sit still, and they will gather a large army to counterattack next. Let Cao Shen retreat, the Mei clan can retreat to the direction of Lujiang County to avoid the sharp edge of the South Vietnamese. ”

"If the South Vietnamese can't help it and chase him to Minyue's side, they will just beat him to wait for work. If they don't come, it will also make them tired for a while. ”

"It's almost September now, and our army only needs to wait for more than a month to get into the army when the climate cools down, and then it's time for the Vietnamese people to harvest rice. Our army went out at this time, and it could still eat on the spot, eat the rice of the South Vietnamese people, and go straight to Panyu! ”

Zhao Tuo slapped his palm on the map of the case in front of him, and the location of his palm was exactly where Panyu, the royal city of Nanyue, was located.

During this period of more than half a year, based on the information provided by the Minyue people and captured South Vietnamese captives, the Qin army had drawn a rough map of South Vietnam, including the direction of the rivers and mountains of South Vietnam, as well as the location of some important cities and villages.

After consulting with Li Shiqi, Yin Tong and other staff generals, Zhao Tuo decided on the next battle plan.

Panyu (Panyu District, Guangzhou City), the royal city of Nanyue, is the same as the Minyue royal city by the sea.

Qin Jun, there just happened to be a huge building boat division!
