The black cloth was lifted, revealing a weapon that the Baiyue people had never seen.

"What is this?" The general of the Minyue army asked, looking at a weapon with a tiger head below.

The Minyue soldier looked at the Qin army's weapon below, it was a weapon like a lying tiger, the iron bracket supported the black round body, the iron tiger head emitted a cold light in the sun, and a circle of red bamboo tubes was tied to the three huge crossbow arrows above the tiger's head.

Ren Huan looked at the condescending Minyue general above and raised his hand.

"Ready!"

The operator of the Huzun ballista immediately aimed the tiger's mouth at the Minyue camp above.

"Put!"

After Ren Huan's hand fell, the gunner who was in charge of controlling the Huzun ballista immediately adjusted the angle and pulled the trigger after aiming at the Minyue military village above, and suddenly hundreds of serial arrows headed towards the Minyue military village.

"Enemy arrows are hidden!" The general of the Minyue army shouted.

The Minyue soldiers standing on the wall of the military fortress raised their shields made of rattan and wooden planks to resist falling bows and arrows.

Ren Huan looked at the wooden shield raised by the military village above, and puzzlement flashed in his eyes.

"The Minyue army underestimated us too much, and even used wooden shields to resist us." Ren Huan said dissatisfiedly.

Ren Huan's lieutenant also nodded, but what they didn't know was that the Baiyue people lived in such a living environment, and it was a luxury to have enough to eat, let alone let them smelt weapons and shields. At the beginning, Bai Yifei was able to break through Baiyue like a bamboo, and South Korea's strong bow and crossbow also had a huge contribution.

As he spoke, the crossbow arrows shot by the Qin army had fallen into the sky above the Minyue military village, and the sharp crossbow arrows pierced through the moment they touched the wooden shield, and the sound of explosions sounded casually, and the Minyue soldiers did not react and dodge at all, and they all died in this explosion.

The walls of the military fortress made of stones were also blown apart, and the Minyue soldiers in the camp looked at the city wall shrouded in smoke in horror, and some people close to the wall couldn't help but vomit when they looked at the stumps and broken arms that fell from the sky.

Ren Huan looked at the collapsed wall and ordered the artillery to fire another volley, this time the letter chain of crossbow arrows fell into the military village, and the soldiers of Minyue were sent away by a new round of explosions before they had time to dodge.

When the fog cleared, Ren Huan looked at the collapsed wall and let the army start to advance, and when he entered the military village, he saw the military village that had become ruins, and Ren Huan's eyes flashed with surprise.

Although Ren Huan had long known that the damage of the Tiger Venerable ballista was extremely high, he did not expect that just hundreds of ballistas would turn a military village into a ruin.

"Search carefully to see if there is any living or useful information." Ren Huan said.

"No!"

After some searching, only a few lucky Minyue soldiers were left in the entire military village who were not affected by the explosion. The first time these Minyue soldiers saw the Qin army, they knelt down and began to pray, hoping that the Qin army would not punish them with the divine punishment just now.

The worship of ghosts and gods by the Baiyue people even exceeds that of the Chu people, who regarded it as a heavenly thunder in the face of earth mines, believing that the Qin army was the master of the royal road and had the blessing of God. And although Baiyue did not recognize the division of the royal road, they regarded the Qin army as the army of Thor.

Ren Huan looked at them without any resistance, and even looked at their Minyue soldiers with some awe, thinking that there was an unexpected gain this time.

Later, Ren Huan wrote the idea that gunpowder might be able to deter the Baiyue people into a military newspaper and sent someone to report it back quickly, and then after Ren Huan sent people to garrison here, he began to continue to advance with the army.

However, in seven days, Ren Huan has taken the Minyue King City, and the same Ren Huan is also in trouble, although he is the first to complete the task among the three road army, but because during the siege, Ren Huan wanted to use the Huzun ballista to deter the Minyue people again, but he didn't expect that one of the ballistas directly exploded in the sacrificial place of the Minyue King City, and blew up the idol of the Minyue sacrifice.

The people in the Minyue King City, who had already planned to give up resistance, saw that the statue was bombed, and the half-dead Great Witch who was blown up immediately called on the Minyue people in the Minyue King City to start resisting the Qin army. Although the Qin army took the Minyue royal city, the Minyue people continued to resist, and once the Qin army left the royal city to attack other tribes, the Minyue people would immediately attack the military camp.

Although the behavior of these Minyue people is no different from sending them to death, if this continues, the more Minyue people die at the hands of the Qin army, the more fierce the resistance of the Minyue people will be, and even cause the entire Minyue people to resist.

Ren Huan, who was located in the big tent, was no longer as high-spirited as he had just entered the Minyue Royal City, but was in a hurry.

"What should I do? I'm just talkative. Ren Huan slapped himself in the face and said.

"General, can we ask Master Wang for help? At the beginning, Master Wang was one step ahead of us, and now it should be on the territory of Dongyue. The adjutant said.

"By the way, there is also Master Wang!" Ren Huan patted his thigh and said happily.

"Master Wang knows astronomy and geography, he must have a way to calm the anger of the Minyue people." Said the adjutant general.

"Yes, that's right. Master Wang must have a way, let me write a letter. Ren Huan anxiously took out a pen and paper and began to write down the situation in the Minyue Royal City now.

In addition to Ren Huan, the other two-way army marching was not slow. The second army led by Zhao Tuo descended from Changsha and went directly in the direction of Yangyue, with the secret help of Tianze, the army led by Zhao Tuo easily defeated the army of Ouyue, and the king of Xiou, who was trying to split Ouyue, was beheaded by Zhao Tuo on the spot.

Tu Sui of the Third Route Army also came out of Changsha, but his goal was Cangwu. Cangwu is not the original Wu Yue descendants, the existence of the ancient country of Cangwu can be traced back to the Yao Shun period, but after the formation of Baiyue, the ancient country of Cangwu and Baiyue directly and continuously intermarried, fighting, with the passage of time, the two sides formed a situation where you have me, I have you, and slowly the two began to merge.

Since the throne of the ancient country of Cangwu was obtained by a Baiyue person, Cangwu has also become a part of Baiyue.

Compared with Zhao Tuo and Ren Huan's rapid march, Tu Sui's speed was much slower, not that Tu Sui's ability was not good, but that there were many mountains in Cangwu, claiming to have 100,000 mountains. Moreover, in addition to attacking Cangwu, Tu Sui must also be on guard against possible attacks from the Xiou tribe at any time. This led to a slow progress in Tu Sui. But after getting Ren Huan's statement that the Huzun ballista might have a miraculous effect, Tu Sui had to put two cannons on every attack to deter the Cangwu people and the Xiou people.

With the deterrence of the Tiger Venerable ballista, Tu Sui's resistance has also become smaller, but the situation is still not optimistic.

East Vietnam.

Ziyou had already gotten the letter sent by Ren Huan, and after reading the contents, Ziyou also rubbed his head.

"Ren Huan, this kid really doesn't make people worry, even if you blow up the Minyue Palace, it's better than blowing up their temple." Ziyou said.

"Ren Huan blew up the temple in Minyue?" Flame Spirit Ji asked in amazement.

"Well, during the siege of the city, Ren Huan didn't know which string was wrong, and he actually blew up the temple in Minyue." Ziyou handed over the information to Flame Spirit Ji.

Flame Spirit Ji also had a big head after reading the content.

"It's nothing that he blew up the temple, the big witch in charge of the temple was blown up half dead, and before he died, he gave the order to fight back and then died, which in the eyes of the people of Minyue Wangcheng, this is the great witch conveying the will of the gods, and they will definitely resist to the end." Flame Spirit Ji shook her head and said.

"Is there any way to fix it?" Concubine Yan asked.

"It's hard, but it's not impossible." Flame Spirit Ji said.

"What's the solution?" Ziyou asked curiously.

"I'll go to Minyue and let the people of Minyue start to believe in the Holy Mother of Flame in the name of Our Lady of Flame. It's just that the process won't be fast, and it needs the support of the great witches in the hands of the exorcists. Flame Spirit Ji said.

The best way to change the minds of fanatical believers is to find a way to change their beliefs and make them lose their spiritual support, so as to cut off the resistance of the Minyue people at the root.

"I'll go with you." Ziyou said.

"Okay."

After explaining to the Zhu family and others, Ziyou took the three of them to the Minyue Royal City, and the places captured by the Qin army along the way have been entered by hundreds of families one after another, and began to help these tribes reclaim farmland and abolish some bad habits.

"Along the way, we passed through 36 tribes, large and small, with more than 1,000 people as a tribe and as few as a dozen people called a tribe. Such a situation is not conducive to future development. Ziyou said.

"This is the situation of Baiyue. The entire Baiyue land is sparsely populated, far surpassing the Chu State. Although the state of Chu was large, its population was also five million. But Baiyue is not more than a million people, and the territory of Baiyue is not much less than that of Chu, starting from the southern end of Wu State, the land of Dongyue, the land of Minyue, the land of Ouyue, the land of Yangyue, and the land of Xiou, Cangwu, and even south of Ouyue. Flame Spirit Ji said.

"Let's join the village." Ziyou said helplessly.

"If you want to merge villages, the Baiyue people will not agree." Flame Spirit Ji said.

"It's not that the people of Baiyue won't agree, it's that the leaders of each tribe won't agree." Ziyou said.

These places in Baiyue are also different from later generations, jackals, tigers and leopards are clustered, and there are all kinds of miasma poisonous insects. Therefore, the Baiyue people are also facing each other across the mountains, living together against the beasts, but in the same way, a relatively good place suitable for survival can accommodate a limited number of people, once the population of this tribe is too large, they will expel some people, let them form a tribe in a new place.

Letting a small number of people face jackals, tigers, leopards, miasma, and poisonous insects is cruel, but it can ensure that more people survive. The purpose of what the Baiyue people do is to survive, and in the eyes of these people, the best way is to huddle together to keep warm, but for various reasons they can't huddle.

One of the biggest reasons is that the leaders of the various tribes, once the village is merged, their power is lost, so they will not agree.

"At the beginning, Tianze wanted to merge villages in Baiyue to restore the prosperity of the original Wuyue period, but in the end it failed. In addition to those tribal leaders, it is more that Baiyue's current place really does not have a rich enough place for them to gather. Flame Spirit Ji said.

"Places can be found, and if there are none, they can be created. The Central Plains has come step by step from slash-and-burn cultivation to the present, and with the experience of the Central Plains, the speed of Baiyue will be faster. Dongyue is the best example of this," Ziyou said.

"Hopefully." Flame Spirit Ji looked at the surrounding mountains and forests and said.

Flame Lingji sincerely hopes that Ziyou's idea can come true, which will not only allow the Qin State to stabilize Baiyue, but also improve the lives of Baiyue people.

Soon Ziyou and his party came to the Minyue Royal City, and as soon as Ziyou entered the Minyue Royal City, he was discovered by the scouts of the Qin army, and then the scouts took Ziyou to find Ren Huan.

"Master Wang, you can be regarded as here." Ren Huan said happily when he saw Ziyou.

"I'm here, I've already figured it out." Ziyou motioned for Ren Huan to sit down and speak.

"I knew you had a way, I don't know what you came up with?" Ren Huan asked.

"Change what they believe in what they can do." Ziyou said.

"Huh!?" Ren Huan looked at Ziyou in surprise.

"I know it's hard, but I have a way." Ziyou took out the Pixiu stone ball hidden in his chest and said.

"What is this?" Ren Huan asked curiously.

"Something that solves a problem." Ziyou said mysteriously, "Okay, leave this matter to us, you just need to send someone to maintain order in Minyue Royal City." ”

"Okay."

After seeing Ziyou take over this matter, Ren Huan didn't think much about it, he is a martial artist, although he doesn't have much knowledge, but he knows one thing very well, that is, he will do whatever Ziyou says, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

The next day, there were some Dongyue people in the Minyue King City, these Dongyue people were like medieval missionaries, and after coming to the Minyue King City, they began to try their best to spread the faith of Flame Lingji.

Before, the belief of Flame Lingji had spread from Dongyue, and naturally there were people in Minyue Wangcheng who knew that after Flame Lingji "appeared" in Minyue Wangcheng, many Minyue people began to believe in Flame Lingji.

And Ziyou has been preparing for his own actions.

"It's up to you whether you can make it or not." Ziyou looked at Pixiu Shiqiu and said.

After Ziyou put the Pixiu stone ball into a formation, that night, many great witches of Minyue dreamed of Baiyue's ancestors in their dreams, and some even directly dreamed of Baiyue's roots, the original leader of the Jiuli tribe, Chi You.

Chi You in the dream told them not to rebel against the Qin army, and that the Qin State would bring them a better life in the future.

The next day, these great witches thought it was a dream, but after hearing that many people had the same dream, they felt that this was the manifestation of their ancestors.

And many of the Minyue people in the Minyue Royal City also had these dreams, these people thought that they were the chosen ones, so they began to take the initiative to publicize this matter, so that the originally restless Minyue Royal City gradually stabilized.
