Chapter Seventy-Five: Zhu Yue
When Xiong Jing arrived at Xiangcheng, the boat division had rested for two days, and after the military discussed and determined the strategy of taking Ao Cang directly, the boat division would start early on the morning of the fourth day and go to the chasm blockage south of Daliang. The soldiers will land on the east bank of the chasm from a suitable place and drive away the 50,000 Qin troops. This was followed by a civil engineering operation to dig up the embankment and connect the chasm waterway to the waterway.
The soldiers who participated in this battle included elite soldiers who had been trained for this purpose and used them to surprise Ao Cang. The elite soldiers were led by Deng Sui, and although they had fought two wars, fortunately there was not much loss in numbers. In addition to the elite pawns, it is the Chen division led by Chen Bu, and the Xiang division led by Xiang Zhi. The soldiers of both divisions were very good at fighting, and although the rowing was not as good as the elite soldiers, the battle seemed to be stronger than the elite soldiers.
In addition to these three troops, there is also the Zhuyue army that came to King Qin at the beginning of the year. Ouyue, Minyue, Nanyue, Luoyue, and Xi'ou all have boats, but the difference is that Ouyue and Minyue come from the sea, while Nanyue, Luoyue, and Xi'ou come by boat from the Xiangjiang River. Although it was intended to unite with the southern Zhuyue and tribes, this was after the victory in the war, and it was too early to talk about it. Since they met, they naturally want to meet each other and get acquainted with each other first. So on the afternoon of this day, under the guidance and introduction of the Yue doctors Lu Zhuo and Gao Zi, the leaders of the Yue Dynasty entered the accounts one after another to meet Xiong Jing.
"Zhu An, the king of Ouyue, has met the king of Chu." A strong tattooed man with no crown bun came in to salute Xiong Jing, he wore a treasure knife at his waist, and was dressed in huge armor, but his clothes were a little strange, not left or right, he was simply unscrupulous. This is a piece of cloth, only a hole is dug in the middle, and then the head and neck are put into it, which is the unique head coat of the Yue people.
"No courtesy." Xiong Jing looked at the headcoat on Zhu An's body, isn't this a T-shirt.
"The king of Minyue has no choice but to see the king of Chu." Another Yue man stepped forward, he had no armor on his body, and he was not wearing a tunic shirt, but clothes similar to those of the Central Plains, but if you look closely, it is not a dress, at least there is only an apron tied underneath. It was also crownless, and he was tied with a piece of black cloth, but his expression was much more energetic than Zhu An's, and he looked at Xiong Jing several times with a rude gaze.
"No courtesy." Xiong Jing could see the suspicion in Wu Zhu's eyes, and he simply asked, "Are you dissatisfied with the widow?" ”
As the descendant of King Yue, of course Wu Zhu can speak elegant words, seeing Xiong Jing asking bluntly, he hurriedly shook it again and said, "The minister doesn't dare." ”
The Qin State is a powerful country in the world, and when he thinks of the Qin army that was burned by the flames, he didn't dare to say that he was unconvinced in his heart. Xiong Jing seemed to know his thoughts, and said: "The widow is not a man, if you say that your personal courage is not as good as you; But if you speak of the power of kings, the few will prevail against you. In the country of Minyue, there are less than 50,000 households, less than 8,000 elite soldiers, and Ding Shao; The boat is also the big wing of the past, and the hand is only fifty; The armor was also lost to the outnumbered, and the Chu army no longer used bronze soldiers, only huge iron. ”
Xiong Jing's words are very unpleasant, but these are all facts, especially the three-oared and large-wing war boat makes the Yue people who are proud of the boat ashamed. The development of the Chu State Boat Division to this point today has become more and more people look at the boat and sigh.
"Only the fighting spirit of the Yue pawn does not lose to the Chu army." Xiong Jing's words said that Zhu An and Wu Zhu were extremely uncomfortable, but fortunately, after Xiong Jing was suppressed, they raised the Yue people. "Therefore, the widow is the king of the Yue."
After Xiong Jing finished speaking, he saluted Zhu An and Wu Wuzhu, and the two hurriedly avoided returning the salute. After that, it was the prince of Nanyue who entered the account.
Nanhai is South Vietnam, but the real Chu language name of South Vietnam should be Nanwu. After the defeat of the king of Yue, the prince of the Yue Kingdom increased the city of the domain (Panyu) to establish the country, which was for the southern martial arts. Gongshiyu originally wanted to join forces with Wei to control Chu, but Wei was already weakened and could only be a vassal to Chu.
"The gentleman of Yue is good at meeting the king of Chu." Finally saw a Yue person dressed in a top and a bottom, this is the king of Yue.
After the four Yue monarchs met, two of them not only had tattoos on their bodies, but also scars, and the short-haired and stamped Yue people came up to meet again, "The Great Elder Song of Xiou met the King of Chu." The great elder of the Tai tribe, the son-in-law Zhu, met the king of Chu. ”
Song is just that, there is still a human head hanging on Zhu's body, which is faintly stinky, and the two of them speak in Yue.
"That's ......" The human head has begun to rot, so it can't be seen, Xiong Jing is a little curious.
Zhu saw Xiong Jing asking, picked up the head and said a word in Vietnamese, very proud. Gao Zi hurriedly said: "Tell the king, he said that this is the head of Zhao Shanzhi, the general of the Qin army. Someone wants to buy it for hundreds of dollars, but he doesn't sell it. He would like to offer this head to the king. ”
"Oh. Is it Zhao Shan, who he led three hundred pawns to intercept and kill? Xiong Jing glanced at the bamboo a few more times. For the Yue people, the tattoo is the crowning of the adult, this bamboo may have just become an adult, showing dark muscles under the head coat, and the face is full of smiles.
"Yes, yes." Gao Zi nodded. Among the many tribes in the south, the Tai tribe is just a small tribe with a little name, and it is more than ten tusks a year, if he hadn't killed Zhao Shan, he would not be qualified to fight with the king of Zhuyue at all.
"The widow doesn't want the head of the general of the Qin army, the widow only needs the head of the Qin king Zhao Zheng." Xiong Jing was not angry and arrogant, "One day, the widow will cut off his head with his own hands." ”
Headhunting is a custom of the Yue people, and it is also a coming-of-age ceremony for the Yue people. In addition to the coming-of-age ceremony, headhunting is also a manifestation of bravery, whoever hunts the most heads, who is the warrior of the tribe. Each clan has similar customs, and without the consciousness of killing and being killed, it is destined to not survive in this world. Hearing that the king of Chu refused his gift, Zhu was a little discouraged, there is Ouyue in the south of Xiou, and there is Ouyue in the south of Luoyue, these three are big countries, outside the big country, there are many tribes, and the survival of the Tai people is extremely difficult.
"King, please enter the Yingdu Military Academy for study." After Zhu learned of the rejection, he spoke another passage in Vietnamese, which Gao Zi translated.
"Can he hear Chu language?" It was an established strategy for the concubines of the great elders of the tribe to enroll in Yingdu, and Xiong Jing was only worried that they could not understand the Chu language.
"King, he said he could understand the Chu language." Gao Zi saw that Zhu nodded vigorously and said so.
"Since you can understand the Chu language, and you are so brave, and you also cut off the head of Zhao Shan, the general of the Qin army, why can't you be a military academy?" Xiong Jing smiled. "After this battle, you will stay in Yingdu and enroll in the military academy after it opens."
Xiong Jing said Zhu Yixi, when the king of Zhuyue wanted to speak, he said again: "Your sisters-in-law and courtiers, if you can understand the Chu language, you will naturally be able to enter the Yingdu Military Academy." The widows had no intention of the south, but the widows would never allow the Qin people to occupy the south, so the military academy was open to all tribes in Zhuyue and the south, and recruited the children of Zhuyue and various tribes to enroll. ”
Entering school to learn the art of war and combat skills is what the king of Zhuyue desires, but the trouble is that if he learns it himself, others also learn it, and he can't form an advantage, so he can't expand his territory, which is also a trouble. Wu Zhuyi said: "The minister asks the king to allow the children of Zhuyue to enter the school of Haizhou." ”
"The School of the Sea Boat?" The school of Haizhou is the aviation school, and now the Yue students in the aviation school are all people who know how to Ji Yue Junkai, Ouyue and Minyue did not send people to the school, and they are very red-eyed.
"King, the aviation school has nothing to do with military affairs, and it is all my children of Chu State, and the children of Zhuyue can enter the military academy." Doctor Lu Zhuo is a person who is opened by Yue Jun, so he naturally doesn't want the children of Ouyue and Minyue to also enter the aviation school.
"The king, the minister leads the army and the king, and the king of Yue does not allow the ministers to cross the border." The Yue Junkai of Huiji is equivalent to attaching the Chu State, so Lu Zhuo said that the aviation school is all the children of the Chu State. Zhu An and Zhu Wu were angry, but they talked about the old things again.
"The king......" When Lu Zhuo was about to speak to help Yue Jun speak, Xiong Jing stopped him with a wave of his sleeve.
"The widow knows that the widow has ordered him to rush to Yingdu to present this matter to the widow in front of him, and he will go to Yingdu this month." Xiong Jing said: "The widow thinks that there is no harmony between the Yue, and there is no harmony between the tribes in the south. How so? The ground is narrow! Inferior too! Tricks too! The population breeds, they want food and clothing, and they have to attack each other and forcibly seize the land.
Why bother? After this battle, the widow is willing to ally with you and others, provide armor and food, and help you and others to go on expeditions. ”
The people who didn't know what the alliance meant were overjoyed for a while, but Lu Zhuo was suspicious in his heart, not understanding whether the king really wanted to help the Zhuyue tribe or wanted to annex Zhuyue. At this time, the banquet had already begun, and Xiang Yan, Peng Zong, Li Ji and others, who had finished handling military affairs, were coming over to the banquet, and he couldn't mention this matter again.
