The fear of the Ouluo Kingdom was not for nothing, but of course it was not because he was afraid of being beaten in the Battle of Lishui, but because Lu Zhe was the second king of the Chinese ethnic group to see the precious land in the south, the first being the First Emperor.

The south is rich in production, and the mineral resources have been well preserved because they have not been developed, but this land is occupied by some Stone Age barbarians, for the organized and organized Chinese army, as long as it can adapt to the climate and natural environment of the south, it can be described as effortless to capture.

The nascent Han Kingdom clearly discovered the value of the land in the south, and knew better than anyone that there was no one in the land of the south who could stop their progress, only nature.

From the time of the rise of Lu Zhe, the army under the command of Lu Zhe has continued to fight with the Baiyue tribes, the location of the battle extends from Nanjun to the coast, and finally makes Lingnan a war zone, almost five years have passed, it can be said that the army under the command of Lu Zhe is the only army in the Chinese ethnic group that is constantly fighting in the primeval jungle, so much time is enough for the army under the command of Lu Zhe to adapt to the climate and environment.

Kaimingpan is not an indigenous, he is a descendant of the royal family of the ancient Shu Kingdom, and he knows very well what the Qianshou of China has for land, and the kings of China have an endless desire for land.

The Ou Kingdom is indeed doing everything possible to understand what is happening in the land of China, and the continuous information from the intelligence feedback shows that the land of China has reached the era of great power competition, Qin and Qi, Yan, and Zhao are at war endlessly, Wei and Han have become the protectorate of Lu Zhe, and the state of Chu has perished because of the rise of Lu Zhe, and a country with a vast territory has appeared in the hands of Lu Zhe.

The relationship between the new Han state and the Chinese countries is very strange, this newly rising state is standing on the corpse of the Chu state, but the old countries do not seem to show any decent hostility, or they are hostile but do not dare to offend lightly, and most of them maintain a friendly relationship with the new Han state.

What makes Kaimingpan feel strange the most? It was the process of the demise of the Chu State that can only be described as incredible. The state of Chu became the Duke of Anle, and the princess of the state of Chu became Lu Zhe's woman. And it seems that almost all the Chu people accepted the fact that they were ruled by Lü Zhe? Although it was not entirely devoid of Chu uprisings, it soon disappeared under the suppression of the Chu and Lü Zhe's armies, who were happy to accept Lü Zhe's rule.

Some limitations make it impossible for Enlightened Pan to imagine why the country perished, but the king can offer his daughter with a smile and become a prince of peace, and almost all Chu people can quickly forget the existence of the Chu state and become a Han Chinese.

Enlightened Pan is incomprehensible, when they can live in peace and happiness, most people will not have the will to resist, and the new rulers are constantly creating interests for Qian, which makes people happy to be ruled. In addition, the state of Chu likes to be the prince of Anle, and some of the courtiers of the Chu state who were originally in power basically preserved their interests after the disappearance of the state of Chu, they not only kept their own interests, but also had a more brilliant future in the new Han state, especially they would have a consolation prize. That is, a prince with Xiong's bloodline will become the king of Chu in the future, why should he not get along with Lu Zhe?

There are so many things that Kai Mingpan can't understand, the nations try to maintain friendly relations with the new Han kingdom, and the people of Chu are happy to be ruled, how can there be such a strange situation in the world?

There are those who can't be understood, and of course there are those who can be understood, and Enlightened Pan knows very well that the Han State established by Lu Zhe will have more strength to fight in the south because it does not participate in the wars of other countries, and the internal stability of the Han State means that nothing will happen to this country to stop Lu Zhe from continuing to go south. Wei and Han acted as a buffer zone between Han and the Central Plains, and the Han State had greater courage to send more troops south. After all, even if the Central Plains changes, Wei and South Korea will support it for a while.

It didn't take much trouble for Kaimingpan to find out the fact that Lü Zhe could only mobilize 1.4 million troops, and at that time the population under Lü Zhe's rule was only about 5 million, and the total population under Lü Zhe's rule had exceeded 8 million after the complete annexation of Chu.

A population of 5 million can mobilize an army of 1.4 million, but how much can a population of 8 million mobilize? Ou Yu country even counts some savage monkeys. The total population is only less than 800,000, and there is no need to calculate how many troops Lu Zhe can mobilize with a population of 8 million, even if it is only 1.4 million troops that have been mobilized, it is 600,000 more than the total population of Ou Yu Country!

What a behemoth. The new Han Kingdom was a vast and populous behemoth, but it was also a nascent state that knew the value of land in the south.

Judging from the course of the Battle of Lingnan, the Han army has discovered the secret of marching quickly in the dense forest. That is, to borrow the water system for transportation and raiding, and the huge Lingnan was occupied by the Han army under the use of the water system for more than a year.

How long has it been? How long has it been since Lu Zhe fought south to today? If you count from the beginning of the Battle of Changsha County, it will be three years. The army is a fairly adaptable collective, and Lu Zhe has so many soldiers, and the Han army has continuously had troops moving south to adapt to the climate and environment within three years, so how many troops should be able to fight in the jungle environment?

There are at least 200,000 troops in this country who are adapted to fighting in the primeval forest, and they can fight against such a behemoth, and they can win the first, second, and third times, and this behemoth can also organize the fourth, fifth, and sixth times...... The war until the destruction of the Ou Kingdom was not something that the Ou Kingdom could provoke at all.

Don't be an enemy, this is the idea that the whole Ou Kingdom reached a consensus after understanding what kind of country the Han State ruled by Lu Zhe was.

When the Ou Kingdom found out that the Han army began to move towards the border, it immediately came up with a decision, that is, to send envoys to the commander of the Han army to communicate, but the first batch of Ou Yu envoys disappeared after they set off, and the result was that when the Han army crossed Shanglong River, he repeatedly hesitated but did not send troops to intercept it.

Of course, Kaimingpan did not know that the first batch of envoys sent was missing, he only knew that the envoys did not give back any information, so he sent a second and third groups...... As more and more envoys were sent, the tension between the top and bottom of the Ou Kingdom became more and more intense, and they went crazy to gather young men and build a defensive line, until the Han army advanced about 20 miles from the border, and the Ou Kingdom had already armed 200,000 people, which was also the limit of the 200,000 troops that the Ou Kingdom could bear.

It was at this time that the eighth batch of envoys sent out finally had information to give back, and the Han army had never encountered even a single envoy from the Ouluo Kingdom, and the eighth batch of envoys from the Ouluo Kingdom was the first one they encountered.

This news is too important to Kaimingpan, no matter how the first seven groups of envoys disappeared, since the Han army replied that they had not seen it, according to the diplomatic policy and concept of the Chinese, Kaimingpan was convinced that the Han side had indeed not seen it, and the first seven batches could be killed by the hostile savages of the Ou Yu country, but what Kai Mingpan cared about was that the Han State did not close the door of communication, which was more important than anything else for the Ou Yu State.

The vanguard Han army did not have enough authority to reply to the diplomatic relations of the Ou country, and the pioneer lieutenant did not stop the pace of the march on the one hand, but on the other hand, he sent people to protect the envoy group of the Ou country to meet Luo Shao.

Hey! Is there an envoy from the Ou Kingdom coming? Luo Shao thought a lot before starting the military operation, including being constantly harassed on the way to the army, and being hit halfway when crossing the river, and even before he got close to the border of the Ouluo country, he began to kill in the dark, but he didn't think that the Ouluo Congress would send an envoy.

It is an envoy group, not a messenger, not a servant, it is a very formal envoy group, in this era the envoy is a very special existence, representing the respect for each other's royal power, but also on behalf of building a bridge of communication with each other, so when the army approached the Ou Yu State, the Kai Ming Pan sent the envoy to only explain one problem, the Ou Yu State has not really fought with the Han army before it intends to soften.

Luo Shao met with the envoys of the Ou Yu Kingdom, and it was Gaotong who came on behalf of Kai Mingpan.

Gao Tong's very humble attitude showed that no matter what happened before, it was a misunderstanding, and repeatedly explained the fact that the Ou Kingdom was not an enemy of the Han State, and if it could calm the anger of the Han State and let the imminent war be stopped, the Ou Kingdom was willing to pay the price.

To be honest, Luo Shao was a little confused, he couldn't understand whether the Ou Kingdom was doing a delaying strategy or what it was doing, but once he handed over this kind of diplomatic relations, it was not something that he could handle as an acting commander of the Southern Expeditionary Corps, and he had to report what happened here to the Nanling Center.

Gao Tong was very happy when he learned that Luo Shao would report the attitude of Ou Yu Guo to the Nanling Center, and he asked: "Then can your army stop marching?" ”

Luo Shao is also in the midst of contradictions, he has never encountered such a situation, according to the established rules of diplomatic relations of the Chinese people, in the enemy country...... Well, the Ouluo country is indeed an enemy country. Even when the enemy country sends an envoy, the commander of the Chinese army will generally temporarily stop military operations before receiving a further order from the king, and the army will only move again when the king sends further instructions, which is one of the reasons why China is called the "state of etiquette".

Luo Shao was conflicted for a while, and suddenly remembered that Ou Yu Guo did not seem to be a part of the Chinese countries, and the Southern Expeditionary Army did not seem to have to abide by the "etiquette" between the Chinese countries, and answered Gao Tong's question very frankly.

As soon as Gao Tong heard that the Han army would not stop marching, he immediately became anxious: "Why not? My king's surname is enlightened, and he is the king of Zhou Tianzi's feudal Shu Kingdom! Why aren't you part of Huaxia! (To be continued......)
