Guiyang, the weather in the north has turned cold at this moment, but it is still relatively hot here.
If he had known that this place was so hot, Liu Chang would never have summoned the kings of the south to formulate a covenant here.
After the founding of the Han Dynasty, Guiyang was a disputed area between Changsha and Nanyue. Of course, it is now owned by Changsha. The people of Nanyue have no objection to this. Anyway, Liu Chang didn't hear them say anything.
OK.
Now that the basic strategies of South Vietnam have been negotiated, Liu Chang is preparing to formulate a grand strategy for the entire South.
Therefore, he specially chose Guiyang as the middle point and asked Changsha, Chu, Wu, Nanyue, Minyue, Dongyue and other countries and ministries to send people to him. He wanted to completely solve the problem in the south, and he was unwilling to spend too much time
The sun is in the south, because the enemy he wants to enter is in the north.
From Minyue to the south, there were basically endless mountains and forests. Liu Changji was sitting and standing in a car. He had no idea where his shirt was thrown, and he was just stumbled. There were all kinds of fruits on the eucalyptus in front of him.
The juice dripped with the corners of his mouth, and two maids knelt on both sides to serve him. If this scene alone could be left with a picture, future generations would not need any research. At first glance, they would be the unforgivable monarch.
Liu Xiang, who was following behind, looked at Zhongfu enviously. This is the demeanor of being a king!
Lu Lu, who was driving, would look back at Liu Chang from time to time.
"Stop watching, you can't cultivate such a strong flesh as much as me!"
Liu Chang signaled the high and bulging muscles, scars spread all over his body, with canine teeth intertwined, and his strong and powerful body made the two maids serving him look straight. From time to time, he thought the king was wiping his mouth and stretched out his hand.
, accidentally touched the king's shoulders and arms...
Liu Chang was extremely proud.
Lu Lu wanted to speak but stopped, "Master, why don't you better change your seating position?"
"Why do I sit on you for your business?"
"No, king, it's revealed..."
"What's your business if you reveal it?"
"No, king, that's right in front of me..."
"oh..."
Liu Chang then restrained a little, and Lu Lu calmed down and asked, "King, have you confirmed the candidate for this Prime Minister of Nanyue?"
“I haven’t confirmed yet.”
"Master, I have someone to recommend."
Lu Lu said very seriously.
"Tell me."
"Your Majesty, how do you think of me?"
"It's great, driving is becoming more and more stable. Who do you want to recommend?"
"Oh...it's all right."
The frame of the King of Nanyue was behind Liu Chang and the others. Zhao Tuo sat in the car, but his face was very calm. The reason why the Nanyue Kingdom could establish a country was mainly because of the weakness of the Han Dynasty and the strength of the Huns. Once the Han Dynasty became strong,
The territory and population of South Vietnam are simply unable to resist.
In the confrontation with the Han Dynasty, Zhao Tuo tried to leave room for room for relief, so that both sides could have a chance to ease. His son was not good, but his grandson was weak and sick all year round, not as good as Zhao Tuo.
He was strong, and Zhao Tuo didn't know how long he could live. He was sure that once he was gone, Nanyue would not be able to stand it. The development speed of the Han Dynasty was getting faster and faster. Even the Wu Kingdom surpassed Nanyue, and there was no hope.
He just wants to preserve the Zhao clan and wants the Zhao clan to continue his influence in Nanyue, and he has no other ideas.
If he was twenty years younger, he might still have the idea of competing for power with the Han in the south, but now, let it go.
When everyone arrived in Guiyang, Chang Liu left everyone behind and went to inspect the people's situation.
Zhao Tuo lived in the county magistrate's house with the support of others. Zhao Tuo was very familiar with this place. After all, he was his own territory and Zhao Tuo was also a fierce man. Over the years, he has caused countless internal problems.
Nanyue formed a group, and even expanded its territory and fought the barbarians in the south with their heads and fled in a panic. Until now, the barbarians in the south still recognized Zhao Tuo as their previous king.
Thousands of years later, they wanted to change the country's name and specially asked the emperor at that time to use Nanyue as the country's name and Zhao Tuo as the previous king.
Although the emperor at that time was also a barbarian, he was still very disdainful of these guys. Are you worthy of being a match for Nanyue? Zhao Tuo?
The hinterland of the Nanyue capital is in Guangdong and Guangxi. You are just defeated by him. What does a Zhao man who occupied land in Guangdong and Guangxi have to do with you? The emperor who did not want to reveal his name asked them for Nanyue.
The name changed the order and became the name of the present.
But neither Zhao Tuo nor the barbarians under Zhao Tuo's current command have anything to do with the group of people further south... Nanyue was in Guangdong and Guangxi, but just went out to conquer and seize some areas in the north and south.
Although the emperor who did not want to be named did not achieve much, he still had a good vision in this matter. Sure enough, these self-deprecated "Nanyue" later shouted to return to the territory of the South Vietnamese.
When President Liu finished his day patrol of the people and returned to the prefect's mansion, Guan Hou was waiting for him.
"Hahaha, Zhongfu!!!"
Liu Chang held Guan Ying's hand enthusiastically, but Guan Ying was frightened by the call of Zhongfu. The Han elders were suffering from Zhongfu phobia at this moment. They were afraid when they heard others calling Zhongfu, and they even ordered
The sons at home will change their names in the future and simply call them uncle and not Zhongfu anymore.
Liu Chang is also the number one person who can complete the innovation of symmetrical qualities with one person's strength.
Guan Ying's performance in this battle was very impressive. After all, Fu Kuan only beats Zhao Shi, while Guan Ying faces Zhao Tuo. Zhao Tuo fought against Guan Ying with the advantage of the terrain.
There are back and forth, and Guan Ying fought against Zhao Tuo in an unfamiliar place, and was not at all inferior. She personally killed several generals, showing the people of Nanyue well what it means to find a ruthless man in the founding of the Han Dynasty and what it means to find a country.
Ranked ninth in meritorious service!
Before Liu Chang came back, the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Zhao Tuo and Guan Ying had just fought and met again at this moment.
Liu Chang saw this and pulled Guan Ying to sit next to Zhao Tuo.
"Hahaha, I thought it was Brother Six who was going to come in person, but I didn't expect it was you who came."
Guan Ying looked helpless, "The king... a minister was seriously ill, so he could not come."
Guan Ying didn't say it clearly, but Liu Chang almost understood it and asked, "I'm afraid it's a minister like the Shizhong?"
"These dogs are all dirty goods!"
Guan Ying cursed unhappily.
Lu Lu's face turned dark and decided to go out for a walk.
"Don't blame him, I apologize to you for him... You have made great contributions this time, and it is not possible to not add a fief."
Liu Chang said a few words, pointed at Zhao Tuo and asked, "Father Zhong, what is this person's talent?"
"It's not bad... I'm very strict in the military management, and I don't see the barbarians' trend, and it's far more like the Fujian and Yue East."
Facing Guan Ying's praise, Zhao Tuo smiled and said, "Guan Hou led the way, led the way with his armored soldiers, charged left and right, and fought for an hour without retreating. He really scared me and was almost captured by you!"
"Hahaha, what's the matter? The generals of the Han Dynasty, I am just a mean person. If Cao Shen, Zhou Bo, Fan Hui, Xiahou Ying, Li Shang are there... you have been beheaded long ago!"
Neither of them like to be serious about their personalities, and with the help of Liu Chang, the chat started soon.
Guan Ying asked about Chang'an, but she didn't ask Guan A.
But Liu Chang didn't understand what he meant and said seriously: "Guan A held an important position under Liu Gong's command. Liu Gong praised him endlessly. Now he can handle major events alone. I heard that he was doing major events in Hexi."
"Mr. Liu? Who is Mr. Liu?"
"Liu Jing."
"oh..."
Guan Ying nodded, "This is not a good person, please don't worry, the king can discipline me."
"Please rest assured, he is not like before. Now he is following Liu Gong Zhufu and a powerful family, and is deeply loved by the rich families in the world..."
They waited here for a few days before people from other countries arrived slowly.
The State of Chu sent the Prime Minister Wang Yu, who was also a ruthless man. He used to be Liu Bang's close servant. Later, he made contributions to attack Xiang Yu and was granted the title of Marquis. Liu Bang sent him to assist his younger brother, while Wu came in person.
As for Xiao Wang, who is from each other, he naturally has to come in person.
But when all these people got together, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Before Chang Liu came, these people could no longer sit still.
"Zhao Tuo!!!"
The prince of Minyue widened his eyes angrily. Minyue was the first to join Wu. In the battle with Nanyue, he became a servant of Wu. Minyue and Nanyue have always had great conflicts. In Zhao
Before Tuo arrived in Nanyue, the two sides were in a long-term battle. The Nanyue people often caught the Minyue people cooking, and the two sides fought hard.
Zhao Tuo often suppressed Minyue in the future, trying to turn Minyue into his first line of defense against the Han Dynasty. If Liu Heng had not come in time, Zhao Tuo would have almost done it.
The father of the Prince of Minyue advanced in the process of attacking Nanyue, and was shot in an arrow and died without any treatment.
At this moment, I suddenly met the enemy who killed my father. The prince of Minyue's eyes were red, and he roared, drew out his long sword and rushed over.
Guan Ying was shocked, but before he could react, the man had already rushed to Zhao Tuo.
At that moment, Zhao Tuo retreated flexibly, avoided the opponent's stabbing, swung the crutch in his hand, and smashed it into the opponent's temple. The Prince of Minyue fell to the ground immediately. This operation was smooth and smooth. It was completely clear.
This is an old man who needs to use a crutch. Seeing the prince of Minyue fall to the ground, several close servants who followed him rushed up screaming. Everyone was still shocked by Zhao Tuo's actions. Zhao Tuo came on.
In front, he waved his cane and immediately knocked down four people.
The four of them fell to the ground, and Zhao Tuo wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in fear: "It's really dangerous... I almost died at the hands of these sluts."
Guan Ying's mouth twitched.
Just now, there was a moment when he felt that he could not beat the old man. His move was really fast and ruthless. He could not tell that he was an old man at all.
The King of Wu hurriedly got up and asked to call a doctor. Zhao Tuo looked at the Yue people with bad faces, suddenly changed his face, and asked unhappily: "Why did this happen?"
"The king summoned us to discuss major events, but these people were in trouble because of private matters!"
"I know that most of the people here have a grudge against me!"
"Ha, although I show my country, I am not easy to deceive."
"If there is still someone who has an enemy with me, you can take action now, and it will be enough for me alone..."
Zhao Tuo glanced at the barbarians of various tribes, and these people were shocked. Zhao Tuo knew the personalities of these people. Most of them were the helpers of Nanyue at the time. At this moment, his situation was hopeless. These people must have other ideas, such as stepping on themselves.
It just so happened that Liu Chang was not here, so I could use this incident to shock these thieves.
"I have experienced many battles... Although I am old, I am not afraid of anyone...you guys here..."
Just as Zhao Tuo secretly threatened these barbarians, Liu Chang walked in and looked at Zhao Tuo in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Oh, it's okay."
"King, the people of Minyue have just attacked me and wanted to kill me."
Guan Ying stepped forward and whispered to Liu Chang to tell him what happened just now. Liu Chang nodded, and Zhao Tuo was still a little reluctant, "King, you have to make the decision for the people of Nanyue."
"Okay, okay, I will make the decision!"
Chang Liu waved his hand and sat in the upper position. The rest of them stood up to pay homage.
The musicians began to sing, and Liu Chang signaled everyone to sit down.
"Since I came to power, I went north, and then I would be given the title of head. When I went west, I would open the land of Hexi and to the east, and I would destroy the countries of Korea. No one could stop me. My army had a million people, and the flags were erected like dense forests.
Likewise, there is no end to see after the chariots are lined up! If you throw a horse whip into the river, you can cut off the water flow! When you beat the drums, you will be like thunder! When you charge, you will be like earth moving!"
"I am in the south now, can there be anyone who refuses to follow?"
Liu Chang came with a fierce look on his face and asked loudly, but he scared the king of Zhu Yue so much that his legs were weak. They immediately bowed: "Don't dare to refuse to follow the king."
Liu Chang said again: "I went out of Chang'an, and officials along the way went out of the city to pay homage. As the king, he dared not hold a high position. Now the southern part surrenders, even if a bird and a beast meet me, he will have to bow down and surrender. Those who do not follow me will be punished!"
After making a few tyrant remarks, Liu Changfang looked at Zhao Tuo.
"The King of Nanyue made contributions to the country and refused to take his throne, so that he could be a good minister of the Zuo Kingdom."
Hearing this sentence, the people from Yue were a little anxious. There were many barbarians living south of the Wu Kingdom. These people were different from tribes. Some had already established a country, and some were still hunting, but Liu Bang
No matter how big or small they are, as long as they are willing to surrender, they will be recognized and let them compete with them to the fullest.
Nanyue has always been suppressing them, wanting to integrate them, and make them like the barbarians in Nanyue, and educate them. Nanyue is powerful and they dare not refuse to follow, but now Zhao Tuo has been defeated, why
The big man still needs to support him? Why can’t he change to a better person, such as himself?
They wanted to refute Liu Chang and persuade Liu Chang, but looking at Liu Chang's expression and remembering his words just now, no one dared to muster up the courage to object.
Zhao Tuo immediately received the order.
"The King of Tang, now the King of Nanyue is old and is afraid that he is unable to govern the country. It is better to send a capable prime minister to assist him."
The only one who dares to speak is naturally King Liu Heng of Wu.
When doing business, Liu Heng was also called the King of Tang. Liu Chang asked, "Can you recommend it?"
Liu Heng nodded and said seriously: "I recommend the governor of Huaiyang County Shen Tu Jia! This person can be the prime minister of Nanyue. In addition, I am willing to send the Censor Chao Cuo to Nanyue to assist the King of Nanyue."
"Shen Tu Jia?"
"Where is your origin?"
Liu Chang asked slowly.
"This man is from Liang, he is not very old. He once served as an ordinary soldier to follow Emperor Gao and attack Xiang Yu. He was promoted to one of them for military merits. Later, he followed General Xiahou to attack the Yingbu rebels and was promoted to the commander-in-chief, and then followed the Marquis of Huaiyin to attack the attack.
The Huns were granted marquis and are now the county magistrate."
The two brothers sang together here, and Liu Chang also showed a surprised expression appropriately, "Those who are promoted to the county magistrate by a soldier must be extraordinary."
"Okay, let's use this person as the prime minister."
Liu Chang made a decision and looked at everyone again, "My great man has always been rewarded for merit. No matter what his origin, as long as he can make military achievements for the great man, he can be promoted. I treat everyone equally, and the people of Baiyue are all
in this way!"
"Thank you, the king!"
Liu Chang decided to enthrone several more, rewarded a large number of ministers from South Vietnam to appease them, and then talked about the whole south with Wang Nai of Chu.
"The King of Chu is my elder, and the State of Chu is the leader of the southern countries. In the future, you can ask the King of Chu first and then make a decision... This time I went from north to south, saw the road south and cultivated the land
There are few, there are many fierce beasts, far less than the north, and there are no strong enemies like the Huns in the south. I decided to reduce taxes from the southern country and govern the southern country. You should focus on governance, and you don’t have to worry too much about war!”
"The King of Wu is my brother, and I admire his talent very much. The King of Chu is old and can check it on his behalf, and the decision-making of the King of Wu still needs to be decided!"
Liu Heng was stunned. Why is this different from what we had previously discussed?
But in front of so many people, Liu Heng could not refute Liu Chang, so he had to pinch his nose and admit it.
Liu Chang immediately announced several orders. Compared with the complex situation in the north, the strategy of the south is very simple. Before connecting the north and south, the south should be integrated first, so that they can connect each other first.
The king is the core, and the king of Chu is the supervisor, and we unite the countries to develop together to let them gather together as soon as possible.
After reading all the orders, Liu Chang asked him to slaughter the livestock and divide the meat with everyone, asking them to make a vow to fulfill Liu Chang's many commands.
After the banquet, everyone returned to rest, but the King of Wu stayed.
Liu Heng was very helpless about Liu Chang, a thing that always cheated on his brother.
"Grown... Do you think I am the leader of the southern country... do you think you have too many brothers?"
"Hahaha, what's the fourth brother saying? Looking at Jiangnan, who else can manage me well except the fourth brother?"
"Didn't you agree to be the King of Chu as your leader?"
"Father Zhong is old, Fourth Brother, do you have the heart to see that Zhong Father is so tired?"
"Fourth Brother! How can you bear it!"
Liu Chang questioned with heartache.
Liu Heng frowned and pondered for a long time, "Okay, since you trust me so much... Then let me govern it... However, all countries may not obey me. If you want me to govern, then give it to the authorities.
I will report the power of ministers from all countries and allow me to go to other countries, so that I cannot leave my fiefs and fiefs... Otherwise, I will still be the king of Chu as the chief."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I agree!"
Liu Chang grinned and asked in a low voice: "Fourth brother, what did I say just now? Is it domineering enough? I just held this banquet for what I said today!"
"That's why you asked me to come with Shi Ling?"
"Yes, yes, my own great Shi Ling is not reliable. Later generations will definitely collect historical materials everywhere for me. Just as I am so domineering, I will record the historical books. After reading it, I will admire me so much.
!”
Liu Chang said proudly.
