Destiny Only Han

Chapter 499 The World Returns 1

The sound of violent explosions and the sound of rumbling war drums intertwined into a magnificent symphony, sweeping across the plains and hills above the battlefield like thunder and lightning.

At this moment in the battle, even an ordinary soldier in the Han army who could only see a few comrades in front, back, left, and right knew that the victory was within his grasp, and shouted loudly.

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

And above the central shogunate of the Han army, a huge feather flag slowly rose, which was a signal to order those sword and shield soldiers to come forward for a decisive battle.

Among the three combat forces of Nanyue Kingdom, the Qin soldiers had completely lost their will to fight. Even if Guan Ying led the cavalry to leave, they still kept their heads crouching and had no intention of picking up weapons to continue fighting.

And the war elephant, which Zhao Tuo had given high hopes to, was scared out of his wits and fled blindly...

As for those Yue warriors who were sticking together with the Han army's spear phalanx, it was the reason why Han Xin raised the feather flag.

Now, it is the stage of harvesting corn!
Accompanied by the movement of the former army to answer the flag, those sword-shield soldiers in single clothes with long knives and round shields rushed forward like a tide.

Many of them did not hesitate to bribe the village men who were in charge of conscription, and the purpose of coming here from thousands of miles to fight is for these Yue people who have not yet reacted and are still staying in place.

In order to buy people's hearts, Liu Bang rewarded those soldiers who participated in the Chu-Han War, pacified the turmoil in Yan, and resisted the Huns' invasion. Therefore, he created a pseudo-middle class with more than 70 million doctor titles.

The reason why they are said to be pseudo-middle class is because the [-]th-class military meritorious title is a set of meritorious service award system, and they need to have the corresponding title before they can legally occupy the land corresponding to the title.

Although the current Han Empire is vast and sparsely populated, and there are no owners of land everywhere, people with corresponding titles only need to report to the government, and they can directly enclose the land.

But the crux of the problem is that those lands that are easy to develop and close to water conservancy facilities have long been owned. Even if such land has no owners, these pseudo-middle class people are not qualified to get involved in such land.

After all, this is a feudal dynasty. As long as the society stabilizes, the good places will be quickly divided up by the rich and powerful.

Therefore, the only land that the pseudo-middle class can occupy is the dry land or hillside land that has been abandoned for a long time.

Such land cannot become a good farm within three to five years, or even ten years, and during this period, countless manpower is required.

Therefore, in the eyes of those sword and shield soldiers rushing forward, the Yue warriors who had already begun to scurry away were no longer human beings, but cows and horses, in human form!
Those spearmen at the forefront of the army also put down their spears, drew out their short knives and began to charge.

Almost all of these people are soldiers drawn from Yuzhang County. After all, the southern border is extremely hot. Those soldiers who have been here for a long time can still adapt to fighting in armor. If they are replaced by those soldiers drawn from the north, I'm afraid I've already passed out from the heat...

The reason for their charge was actually the same as those sword and shield soldiers.

Take prisoners!
The biggest difference between the soldiers of Yuzhang County and the pioneers who migrated to Yuzhang County is that most of these soldiers came from small landlord families, and their families had certain financial resources to support them in purchasing land in Yuzhang County. , opened a sub-mine...

Therefore, whether you can let yourself get on the fast-growing train of the Han Empire depends on how many prisoners they can capture today!

According to the law of the Han Dynasty, decapitation is counted as merit, and prisoners are also counted as credit, and whoever captures the captive can give priority to appointing the captive as his own minister!
Looking at the messy scene in front of him, Zhao Tuo remained silent. Surrounded by the palace guards, he got off the cloud chariot and rode his horse towards Panyu City behind him.

Now, he has only one last way left.

Fortunately, the torrential rain in Lingnan came and went quickly. In such a short time, the stormy sea, lightning and thunder disappeared without a trace. The sea surface returned to its former tranquility, and even a huge rainbow appeared.

Zhao Tuo glanced at Zhao Zhong who was following behind him, the latter immediately understood, nodded slightly, and rode away quickly.

Before the news of the defeat reached Panyu, he wanted to transfer the glazed wares that had already been packed to the sea ships moored at the pier as soon as possible!
These treasures will be their hope of returning to the country!
................................................

"Sunshine always comes after the storm, please believe that there is a rainbow..."

Liu Ying hummed a ditty incompletely, and trotted down from the cloud car.

It is advisable to have the remaining courage to chase the poor bandits!
Today's battlefield can be handed over to the infantry to clean up. He, Han Xin and others will join Guan Ying's cavalry and strive to take Panyu City in one go.

For Liu Ying, the household registration in Panyu City is the most important thing.

After all, the main purpose of his trip was to dig people's mines. With the statistics of the Qin Dynasty and Zhao Tuo's statistics on the immigration of Qin people, and the number of people, land and wealth of the subjugated Yue tribe, it would be more effective to formulate policies later.

But when Liu Ying rode slowly on the edge of the battlefield, a Yueren prisoner with feathers on his head and dressed as a wizard suddenly looked at him with his hands raised high, and shouted loudly:

"Thunder King! Thunder King..."

Are you calling me?What was he talking about... Liu Ying frowned and looked around. To be honest, he couldn't understand what the Yue man was saying.

The soldiers of the Han army who were in charge of guarding the prisoners rushed over immediately, holding the scabbard upside down, and slapped the Yueren wizard to the ground, and then bent over to face Liu Ying and clasped his fists:
"Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

"It's okay, it's not your fault." Liu Ying waved her hand at him, and then asked, "What did he say?"

The Han soldier shook his head, Wu Chen stepped forward slowly, leaned into Liu Ying's ear and whispered, "He seems to be calling the name of a god of the Yue people, what is it called Thunder King..."

Liu Ying nodded in silence for a moment. He knew something about King Lei, but he didn't take it to heart before.

After all, people at this time were very superstitious. They believed that all things had spirits. Mountains had mountain gods, wells had water gods, trees had tree gods, and worms had worm gods... It can be called a plant, a tree, a stone, a hill, and a mountain. There is a god in every water.

But looking at the appearance of the wizard at this moment, Liu Ying's heart flashed, as if some mysterious things flashed by, but she couldn't catch it all at once.

So he looked at the Han soldier standing in front of him: "I pass on my commander's order that all captured Yueren wizards will be sent to the tent of the Chinese army, and they must not be beaten, scolded, neglected or insulted at will!"

Well, Liu Ying is the head coach of the Southern Expedition, and the banners of "General Tiance" and "General Southern Expedition" were hung in front of the big tent...

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Han Xin curled his lips in disdain, and said with a bit of sarcasm: "The battle is not over yet, so I'm going to compile the myths and stories of South Vietnam? It seems that His Royal Highness is better at making money than at leading troops in battle." Woolen cloth!"

Some people are jealous of me being the coach, I won't say who it is...Liu Ying looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, just pretending that she didn't hear Han Xin's voice.

....................................

Panyu city.

Although Zhao Tuo had made preparations early, the news of the defeat ahead still spread in the city.

On the streets and alleys, there are people running blindly everywhere, including Central Plains people and Yue people, but more of them are Nanyang businessmen who came along the coastline.

In the past few years, Zhao Tuo has made Panyu County a trade node connecting Han and Southeast Asian countries by virtue of his trade with Han.

Princes and nobles from foreign lands dispatched their royal merchants one after another, carrying local specialties such as spices, gemstones, and fragrant wood, to trade those glazed wares that Zhao Tuo was tired of playing with, as well as other commodities such as silk.

So this is why Zhao Tuo tried to cover up the news of the defeat.

Without him, most of these caravans came by boat. As long as there was a time difference, Zhao Tuo could forcibly confiscate these ships before they left the port, and then use them to transport his wealth!
Just as the people in Panyu were panicking, another cry came from the southern city wall, dissipating Zhao Tuo's last glimmer of hope.

Under the clear sky, standing on the city wall or the pier near the sea, people can clearly see that a black fleet is sailing over the sparkling sea, and at the forefront are four huge giant ships. The black sails of the ship were full of wind, and a large flag with white characters on a black background was waving in the wind.

汉!
This is the ship of the Han army!

And behind these four big ships, there are hundreds of sea ships with hard sails, and a big flag with the word "Zou" waving on the mast in the wind.

This is the fleet of King Minyue.

Nanyue Kingdom borders Minyue Kingdom, and the two sides often have small-scale frictions, so most soldiers of Nanyue Kingdom know the flag of Minyue Kingdom.

The terrible thing is that these ships don't need to fight them at sea, they only need to block the harbor and cut off their way of leaving.

Next, it's time for those shattered Han infantry to catch a turtle in their urn.

At the highest point of the Nanyue Palace, Zhao Tuo also saw this scene.

The Han army advanced by land and water, making it clear that there was no way for him to survive!

However, he no longer has the means to kill him...

But is it really gone?
Zhao Tuo stared at the big boxes hastily brought out from the treasury, and thought of the envoys he had sent to Han to ask for peace, but never returned like a bull in mud.

Since the Han people are sure to be able to break through Nanyue and take all the exquisite glassware he has accumulated for half his life, then he must be prepared to get nothing!

"If I don't want it, no one else, no one else..."

Zhao Tuo ran down the long steps like a madman, and forced the palace people to move the big boxes one by one into the hall with his long sword.

After a while, the flames shot up into the sky, and the thick smoke billowed straight up into the blue clouds. In the raging flames, one could vaguely see a dancing figure, as well as Qin Yin who was somewhat deliberate.

"Sisi Kongfu, with six bridles in hand. Gongzi Meizi, from Gongyushou... Teacher, here I come..."
