Chapter 247: Zhao Tuo, the 100-year-old South Vietnamese king, attacks the tortoiseshell
In the afternoon on the island, the wind blows from the sea from time to time, rustling the countless coconut leaves in the coconut forest outside Tortoiseshell City, but the past sounds of birds and cicadas in the forest have disappeared without a trace.
, the silence in the coconut grove was a bit abnormal, Zhuge Ke's troops were already ambushing in the forest,
We only wait until the afternoon when the Li soldiers on the city head are drowsy before launching a surprise attack. After all, the gates of Tortoiseshell are now closed and they are not left open as usual. People can come and go at will. Although Zhuge Ke still let Wu Jun
Blocked the news as much as possible,
However, in this remote island, Wu Jun has not yet achieved complete control over the surrounding areas of Tandu City, so many Li tribes in the nearby mountains have discovered the news. It is not surprising that the nearby Tortoiseshell turtles have also received the news.
,
Hawksbill County is named after the hawksbill turtle, one of the four unique species in Hainan. The hawksbill turtle belongs to the genus Hawksbill of the family Turtleidae. The number of scales on its carapace is thirteen, so it is also called thirteen-scaled turtle, Wenjia turtle, and longevity turtle.
There are two pairs of forehead scales on the head; the snout is long and flat on the sides, and the front end of the palate is curved like an olecranon. The carapace is heart-shaped, and the scutes of juveniles and adults are arranged like imbricates, while those of older individuals tend to be arranged in a mosaic.
The carapace is brown with dark and light annular spots and small radial light yellow spots; the plastron is yellow; the throat and the ends of the limbs are dark brown.
The limbs are paddle-shaped. The forelimbs are longer and larger, each with two claws; the hind limbs are shorter and smaller, each with one claw. The tail is short and small, and usually does not show outside the armor.
It is a kind of reptile that lives in the deep seabed of the tropics. It has a lifespan of 1,500 years and can be regarded as a kind of divine turtle. Therefore, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also liked this kind of good thing presented by the South Vietnam Kingdom. At that time, the South Vietnam Kingdom used the hawksbill turtle as a tribute.
, pay tribute to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
In 111 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty established Zhuya and Dan'er counties in Hainan Island, and established Tortoiseshell County in the Qionghai area, which is rich in hawksbill turtles.
Speaking of which, this island had been included in the territory of the Qin Dynasty as early as the Qin Dynasty when the First Emperor pacified Baiyue and established Nanhai County. However, this island was not given a name.
After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, he began to pacify the Baiyue Land in the Lingnan region. In the 28th year of the First Emperor's reign, Qin Shihuang sent Tu Sui as the chief general and Zhao Tuo as the deputy general to lead an army of fifty to pacify Lingnan.
At the beginning of the Southern Expedition, the Qin people occupied the Guangdong area around Panyu and left troops to garrison it. Another 300,000 Qin troops went west to the Guangxi area to fight the local Yue people. Although they killed the leader of the Xiou tribe "Yiyu Song", the Qin army continued for three
The battle failed in 1998, and even the general Tu Sui was killed in the war.
After the death of his coach Tu Sui, Ren Xiao succeeded Tu Sui and Zhao Tuo and led the army into Lingnan, and unified Lingnan in the 33rd year of Qin Shihuang.
Immediately afterwards, the Qin Dynasty established Nanhai County in Panyu (now Guangzhou), with Ren Xiao as the commander-in-chief to oversee the politics, military, and supervision of the county. He had jurisdiction over Panyu, Longchuan (now Longchuan County, Heyuan, Guangdong), and Boluo (now Huizhou, Guangdong).
Boluo County), Sihui (now Sihui County, Zhaoqing, Guangdong), four counties,
Longchuan's geographical location and military value were extremely important, so Zhao Tuo, the deputy commander, was appointed as the magistrate of Longchuan County. Zhao Tuo built a city in Longchuan and established a land for his administration.
At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Tuo, the magistrate of Longchuan County in the south of Lingnan, echoed the peasant uprising led by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, and took advantage of the opportunity to rise.
In the second year of Qin II, Ren Xiao, the captain of Nanhai County, was seriously ill. Before his death, he summoned Zhao Tuo, who was the magistrate of Longchuan County at the time, and explained to him that he relied on the favorable terrain of Nanhai County, which was close to the mountains and the sea, and had dangers and dangers.
He planned to establish a country to resist the invasion of the uprising armies in the Central Plains; and immediately issued an appointment document to Zhao Tuo, asking Zhao Tuo to act as the Nanhai County Lieutenant, and told him that "Qin's government is unethical, the Central Plains is in chaos, and Panyu is facing dangerous mountains and obstacles.
The South China Sea is thousands of miles from east to west, and there are quite a few Chinese people to help it. This is also the lord of a state, and he can establish a country."
After succeeding Ren Xiao as Nanhai County Lieutenant, he sent troops to blockade the northern entrance to Lingnan, cut off traffic between the north and the south, and used force to merge the three separate counties of Nanhai, Guilin, and Xiangjun.
Shou."
In the same year that Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, he established a "Nanyue Kingdom" with Panyu (today's Guangzhou) as its royal capital and a vast area of thousands of miles in the three southern counties under his control. He called himself King Wu of Nanyue, and he easily got a name.
country,
Although the Nanyue Kingdom was in a semi-independent state, it still obeyed the orders of the Han Dynasty. In the eleventh year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Tuo accepted the title of King of Nanyue given by the emperor. During his 70 years in power (it is said that Zhao Tuo lived for more than a hundred years)
,
He lived until the fourth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He maintained a subordinate relationship with the central dynasty, took measures to promote friendly relations with the Han Dynasty, opened up border trade, and maintained the unity of the country.
After Zhao Tuo's death, the Nanyue regime experienced an internal crisis. The military and political officials headed by Lu Jia, the Prime Minister of South Vietnam, formed the "Lu Group" and waited for opportunities to rebel and split, and break away from the rule of the Han Dynasty.
By the time of the fourth generation of Nanyue King, Nanyue King Zhao Xing and Queen Mother Shishi, in compliance with the wishes of most of the South Vietnam nobles to achieve national unification, formally made a request for "internal vassalage" to the Han Dynasty.
In the fourth year of Yuanding reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Han court sent envoys to Panyu to handle domestic affairs in South Vietnam.
In order to stop their subordinates, the "Lu Group" overestimated their capabilities and killed Zhao Xing's mother and son and the Han court envoys. They launched an army to rebel, established a new king of Nanyue, announced their separation from the central power, and openly resisted the Han court.
Tortoiseshell County,
Then it was forced to be abolished. Today, hundreds of years have passed since Zhuge Ke led his army outside the city. Although the city is somewhat dilapidated, the powerful Chinese character "tortoiseshell" written in Chinese seal above the city gate can still be faintly legible.
,
Xiaozhuan was still one of the popular scripts in the Western Han Dynasty and was used in high-level official documents and important ceremonies.
With the great popularity of official script and gradually becoming the main calligraphy style popular in the Han Dynasty, the seal script of the Han Dynasty was impacted by the official script of the same period. Pure small seal works have become very rare. Official changes and corrupted seal scripts have replaced the serious six script principles.
,
Later generations called the seal script of the Han Dynasty, which incorporated many official changes, "Han Seal". Therefore, most of the official fonts during the reign of Emperor Wu used "Han Seal". It is not surprising that characters written in "Han Seal" appear here.
.
Zhuge Ke squatted in a hidden place in the coconut forest like other soldiers. When he saw that the time had come, he drew his sword and rushed out of the coconut forest and shouted: "Come with me and attack the city!"
The soldiers behind Zhuge Ke also shouted loudly: "Charge!" In an instant, the forward soldiers of the Wu army rushed to the Tortoiseshell City with shields, and began to use the wooden rams and ladders that had not been used the day before to hit the doors and ladders.
Ascend the city,
Amidst the chants of "Hey yo - Hey yo - Hey yo" by the soldiers of the Wu army, the Li soldiers resisted desperately behind the city gate, as if the city gate might be broken down at the next moment. Yang Yizu also began to command the soldiers not far from the city wall.
Ascend the city,
Although there is no gold juice on the top of the city, the falling rocks will inevitably hit some unlucky Wu Jun soldiers, causing Wu Jun to fall from the ladder and suffer casualties...
