Qin Yuedang Kong

Chapter 64 The final arrangement before the destruction of South Vietnam

A few days after Wu Jian's death, news about Nanyue spread throughout Daqin one after another. First, Zhao Shi, the prince of Nanyue, returned to Daqin, then the [-] troops of Nanyue were annihilated near Sihui County by Fusu, and then Nanyue State Prime Minister Wu Jian was bestowed to death by Zhao Tuo, and in the end, Nanyue King Zhao Tuo moved to Minzhong County. These news spread wildly to all parts of Daqin like wings.

When these news spread to all parts of Jiangdong under Xiang's rule, the whole land of Jiangdong was covered with a layer of melancholy, whether it was the officials or ordinary people in all parts of Jiangdong, there was a little more sadness on their faces.

Officials worry that Jiangdong will be the next South Vietnam, and their official career will end with Jiangdong's collapse, while ordinary people worry that the Qin army will endanger their lives when the Qin army invades Jiangdong, especially those who have many children. , They were even more worried that their descendants would be forcibly conscripted into the army by the Xiang family when the Qin army attacked and killed Jiangdong.

With the fermentation of these news, many rumors began to be mixed in these news. The most outrageous rumor was that Xiang Yu was going to surrender to Fusu. The rumor said that Xiang Yu had already negotiated with Fusu and wanted to learn from Zhao. Beginning to lead the people to surrender to Qin.

Fortunately Jiangdong Xiang Bo was wiser than Zhao Tuo, he didn't believe these baseless rumors at all, but the Jiangdong people were different, they couldn't tell the truth of these rumors for a while, which only added to the worries of many people.

When the people in Jiangdong were in distress, the situation of Xiang Bo, the lord of Jiangdong, was not much better. Since Meng Tian and Wang Li's army invaded Jiangdong, he has been desperately leading his army to resist the Qin army that invaded Lujiang County. Meng Tian's offensive was blocked, but half of Lujiang County had already fallen into Qin's hands.

It is normal for large armies to conquest and lose cities and land, but the fact that half of Lujiang County in the east of Jiangdong was occupied by Meng Tian is obviously no longer measured by normality.

If Lujiang County is completely in hand, Jiangdong can rely on the natural danger of the Yangtze River to stop the Qin army, but after half of Lujiang County is occupied by Meng Tian, ​​the Yangtze River to the west of Lujiang County has become an inland river of Qin State, and Jiangdong has no danger to defend.

What made Xiang Bo most uncomfortable was that the Qin army had already established a foothold in Jiangdong relying on half of Lujiang County. From then on, the land of Jiangdong was like Qin in Fusu's eyes. Attack from any direction and attack from any direction.

Xiang Bo also tried to compete with Meng Tian, ​​but Meng Tian chose a steady and steady strategy. Every time he occupied a city, he immediately built up city defenses, so as not to give Xiang Zhuang a chance to regain the lost land in Lujiang County.

Looking at Xiang Yu and Xiang Zhuang who faced off against Wang Li and Yingbo in Changsha County, the situation is slightly better than that of Xiang Bo. Ever since they withstood the strength of Wang Li's army, Wang Li and Yingbo have not been around. The two brothers of their own family have been begging for too much money, and the two sides have been in a state of confrontation.

The reason why Wang Li and Ying Bu did not choose to continue to attack Xiang Yu and Xiang Zhuang's army was because they received the order of Fusu.

When Fusu heard the news that Xiang Yu and Xiang Zhuang had returned to Changsha County with their troops, he immediately sent someone to convey an order to Wang Li: Just hold back the army of Xiang Yu and Xiang Zhuang, and don't act rashly. storm.

The reason why Fusu wanted to stop Wangli and Yingbo from attacking was because Fusu knew that Xiang Yu's combat effectiveness was not weak, and he didn't want to increase the casualties of the Qin army.After Nanyue is completely wiped out, Fusu will let Peng Yue lead an army from South Vietnam to attack Changsha County and assist Wang Li in retaking the entire territory of Changsha County.

……

When all parts of Daqin were discussing Fusu's deeds in South Vietnam, Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue who triggered this series of incidents, left 3 troops to garrison Nanhai County, and led his people to move to Minzhong County.

Hearing Tanqi's report of the Nanyue King's news, Fusu nodded with satisfaction, and then watched all civil and military officials make final arrangements for the complete extermination of Nanyue.

"Everyone, now that the king of Nanyue has moved to Minzhong County, it is clear that he will rely on Minzhong County for the final struggle, and this Minzhong County is adjacent to Jiangdong. It seems that Zhao Tuo is ready to join forces with Jiangdong again. , It depends on whether the Jiangdong Xiang family dares to help Nanyue, if he Jiangdong does not send troops to assist Zhao Tuo, then I will only take his Changsha County, if he Jiangdong dares to send troops, then I have no choice but to take back Jiangdong." Fusu Looking at the crowd of civil and military officials, he said.

"Young Master, now that Great Qin conquers Nanyue soon, it will not be difficult to destroy Jiangdong with the power of Nanyue's victory. Why do you still delay, and only want to go to Changsha County in Jiangdong?" Peng Yue asked a little puzzled. .

"My lord, I also think that what General Peng Yue said is true." Li Yan followed suit.

"Two generals, Daqin does have the military power to wipe out Jiangdong's Xiang family, but after Jiangdong is wiped out, how can we appease the more than 300 million people in Jiangdong? After the war, the people will be on the verge of poverty. The clothing, food and shelter of millions of people have to be transferred from our Daqin treasury. How can I have the national power? Although there is still money and food accumulated in the treasury from the issuance of Daqin bonds, it cannot withstand such a toss. The conquest of Nanyue is already a huge loss, and Jiangdong is about to bottom out, and it is really not worthwhile to recover Jiangdong at this time." Fusu looked at Peng Yue and Li Yan and said.

"My lord, I understand the humble position." Peng Yue said.

Seeing Peng Yue and Li Yan's half-understanding expressions, Fu Su shook his head helplessly.

The reason why Fusu wanted to temporarily put aside the matter of continuing to conquer Jiangdong was because he was worried that the conquest of Jiangdong would exhaust the financial resources accumulated from issuing the bonds of the Great Qin State, which would only increase the burden on the Great Qin's finances.

The operation of the Hexi land has just begun, and huge investment will be needed in the later stage, and the millions of South Vietnamese people will also need to be appeased after the recovery of South Vietnam. Even with the financial means of issuing bonds of the Great Qin State, it cannot withstand the consumption of more than 300 million Jiangdong people.

Once Daqin's finances collapse and the due Daqin national debt cannot be redeemed, then Daqin's national credit will be completely exhausted. At that time, Fusu's plan to build Hexi into Daqin's commercial center facing Central Asia may be impossible. Became a bubble.

Compared with the Maurya Dynasty, which was to be destroyed in the Fusu plan, Jiangdong is just a disease of scabies. If the rapid rise of Daqin is delayed because of the land of Jiangdong, it will be a bit of a waste.

For the recovery of Jiangdong and Hu Hai's counties and counties, Fusu already has an idea, that is, to fight an economic war in advance, which can not only exhaust the strength of Jiangdong and Huhai's counties and counties, but also build a good land for Hexi. Afterwards, it used its economic advantages to completely block the Maurya Dynasty to accumulate experience in economic warfare.

Fusu knows that to conquer the world's most powerful country like the Maurya Dynasty, which has a population of 500 million and a territory that is two counties larger than that of the Great Qin, it is impossible to rely solely on conquest. Economic warfare is the best auxiliary option. .

For Peng Yue and Li Yan, not to mention the Maurya Dynasty on the other side of the Himalayas, even the theory of economic warfare is only heard by Fusu. The huge gap caused by knowledge cannot be made up in a while.

After a while, Fusu recovered from his thoughts, and saw Peng Yue and Li Yanzheng waiting expectantly for him to make arrangements for the next complete destruction of Nanyue King Zhao Tuo.

"General Li Yan, apart from the tens of thousands of troops in Minzhong County, the strength of troops in all parts of South Vietnam is already insignificant. You should lead an army of [-] to go south and take back all parts of Xiang County!" Fusu looked at Li Yan and ordered.

"Promise, I will take back all parts of Xiang County within one month." Li Yan promised with a serious face.

"General Peng Yue, you can clean up the mess here in Nanhai County."

"My lord, why don't you let Xiaozhi go with you to the Minzhong Army to deal with Zhao Tuo." Peng Yue pleaded to Fusu, licking his face.

Peng Yue was really unwilling to let himself clean up the mess in Nanhai County. After all, killing Zhao Tuo was more interesting than cleaning up the mess. Even following Li Yan to clean up the remnants of Xiang County was more interesting than cleaning up the mess in Nanhai County.

"Don't even think about going to Minyue, don't you still have Zhao Shi, Han Chuan and these brothers from Qingzhang Mountain?" Fu Su pointed to Zhao Shi, Han Chuan and the guards standing behind him standing under the hall. A Qingzhangshan brother said.

Hearing Fusu mention him, Han Chuan and the guards behind Fusu couldn't help but straighten their waists, while Zhao Shi looked blank.

Seeing that Fusu didn't change his mind, Peng Yue had no choice but to accept Fusu's arrangement without love.

Three days later, Fusu left 5 troops for Peng Yue, and then led an army of 17 to march towards Minzhong County.
