General Qin

When Zhao Tuo arrived in Lujiang, autumn had already entered.

The vegetation beside Pengli Lake is golden.

When the lake water ripples in the wind, countless migratory birds flap their wings and fly, and bursts of bird song echo in the sky, underground and water. Especially as the time gets later and dusk approaches. There is already a ray of light emerging from the sky, which contrasts with the waves of the water, making the scenery even more magnificent and moving.

This kind of beautiful scenery is very different from that of the Central Plains, making a group of people crossing the river look at it sideways.

"This place was originally inhabited by the Qianyue people, and it also belongs to the land of Baiyue. I thought that when I arrived here, I would see a barren mountain and harsh water, but I didn't expect that the scenery was actually quite beautiful. It makes people feel comfortable watching it."

Li Shiqi rode on horseback, looked at the surrounding lake scenery, and expressed his admiration.

Hearing this, Zhao Tuo also felt open-minded. As the horse's hooves moved, he couldn't help but get excited and spoke loudly.

"The setting clouds and solitary swans fly together, and the autumn water is the same color as the sky. The fishing boats sing late, ringing on the poor Pengli shore; the formation of wild geese is frightened by the cold, and the sound breaks the Hengyang Pu."

Zhao Tuo originally just wanted to say the two sentences mentioned earlier to cultivate his sentiments. As a result, he didn't stop the car and read out the rest.

Looking up now, I can see that what I see on Penglize's side is all primitive scenery. No one has developed it at all. There is no scene of fishing boats singing late.

It is not beautiful to add superfluous things to others.

While Zhao Tuo was annoyed, Li Shiqi had already raised his palm and praised: "Okay!"

He smiled and said: "The Lord is really good at writing. He can vividly describe the beautiful scenery of Pengli Lake in autumn in just two sentences. The line about the fishing boat singing in the evening also outlines the future of this place under the emperor's governance. The country will be prosperous and the people are safe, and Guizhou will be prosperous The scene of settling down. Just thinking about it makes me feel so beautiful, so wonderful, so wonderful!"

"Sir, that's a ridiculous compliment. It's just a vulgar comment."

Zhao Tuo shook his head modestly, with a smile on his lips.

At this moment, Han Xin, who had been following on horseback, said curiously: "The late fishing boats that the king said are the scene here in the future. What does Hengyang Pu mean? It seems to be Fanxian further ahead, not called Hengyang. Bar?"

Zhao Tuo's smile froze and he turned back to glare at Han Xin.

"The foreigners are foreigners."

"After the people of Chu brought them to Qianyue, they named the city in front of them Fanyi, which means a foreign city, and the Qianyue people governed themselves here. Now the emperor rules over the world, and all the four seas are the land of Qin, and they are named Fanyi. It is extremely unbeautiful. So I decided to report to the emperor and change the name of this place to Hengyang and the water in the south to Hengshui!"

In response to Han Xin's question, Zhao Tuo took advantage of the situation and stripped the name of Hengyang, Hunan, to Jiangxi for future generations.

Han Xin blinked and felt that what Junhou said seemed to make sense. The word Heng was indeed better than the word Fan.

Li Shiqi next to him laughed and said to Zhao Tuo: "The prince is not only proficient in the art of war, but also talented in literature. I heard Li Shangyan said that in the past, when he crossed the river with the prince to conquer Yue, the military prince was once there. It is quite majestic and powerful to recite the words on the boat to go to the east of the Yangtze River to catch up with the waves. I think that after the world is peaceful, the kings and princes can also write books and show their literary talent."

Li Shiqi's original intention was to relieve the embarrassment, but when he said these words, Zhao Tuo's heart skipped a beat.

An idea popped into his head.

Because of his participation, the world line of this time and space has undergone tremendous changes.

If Qin had not been destroyed, the Han Dynasty would have ceased to exist, and the original series of dynasties in history would also have ceased to exist.

Even if there is a change of dynasty in the future, it will not be the same people.

Such a big change not only had a political impact, it was also a devastating blow to the original Chinese literature.

Li Bai, Du Fu, Su Shi...

These people are gone, and naturally those popular literary masterpieces in history are gone.

Even if another great writer appears, they will not be able to write the famous articles that Zhao Tuo has read. What they will write will be other things.

"no!"

"Chinese cultural heritage cannot be cut off because of my participation, Zhao Tuo, and the world cannot be short of those literary treasures. It seems that I can only rely on myself to promote literature."

Zhao Tuo suddenly felt responsible and made a decision in his heart.

When this battle is over and all wars are settled, he can live leisurely in Xianyang. Just write out all the beautiful literature he still remembers.

Zhao Tuo not only wanted to reform the politics and science and technology of this era, but also lead the trend of literature!

"You don't wake up to the dawn when you sleep in spring, you can hear the singing of birds everywhere..."

"There will be times when strong winds break through the waves, and sails can be hung directly across the sea..."

"Wine and song, life geometry……"

Author: Zhao Tuo.

In addition to poems and songs, there are also many famous novels, and Zhao Tuo feels that they cannot be lost just now.

When he has free time in the future, he will compile a collection of essays and write down all of them.

"Oh, the responsibility of a time traveler is really heavy."

Zhao Tuo, who deeply felt that he shouldered the important responsibility of leading Chinese literature, paid more attention to this war of conquest of Vietnam.

After this battle, he still had a lot to do.

With this idea in mind, the next day, the team arrived at Fan County where the Qin Army was located.

Outside Fan County, there are endless camps of Qin troops.

It's just that the appearance of this camp is very different from usual.

I saw many wooden shelves set up on the ground to form a wooden table, about half a meter high.

The Qin army's camp was built on this wooden platform, not directly on the ground.

"The ground was hot and humid, and there were insects and ants everywhere. Even if the soldiers cleaned the ground, it was still very damp and uncomfortable to sleep on. So General Feng imitated the buildings of the Yue people and built wooden boards on the ground for isolation."

It was Meng Tian who spoke.

Before Zhao Tuo went south, he and Ren Xiao were named two deputy generals and went to Changsha and Lujiang counties respectively to take over military affairs and stabilize the morale of the army.

Among them, Ren Xiao asked for orders to go to Changsha because of the massacre of Sui, to deal with the local rebellion of Yangyue and Xiou in the south.

Meng Tian came to Lujiang County to take over from Feng Wuze.

Because he arrived some time early, Meng Tian had basically grasped the situation of the Qin army here, and was leading and reporting to Zhao Tuo.

After listening to Meng Tian's explanation, Zhao Tuo nodded slightly.

From this stilt-style camp, it can be seen that Feng Wuze does have his own tricks.

He has been in Vietnam for several years and is very familiar with this place. He truly knows himself and his enemy. Therefore, under his planning, the Qin army achieved great results in the early stages of the war and captured Fujian and Vietnam in one fell swoop.

If Feng Wuze was given time, it would be possible for him to defeat Baiyue by himself.

Unfortunately……

Zhao Tuo felt nervous and asked Meng Tian, ​​"Can the orders for hot water and cooked food be carried out?"

Meng Tian responded: "Don't worry, sir, I have issued military orders since I got here. All drinking water for the soldiers must be heated before consumption, and soldiers are never allowed to drink raw water. In terms of food, soldiers are not allowed to eat raw food. Local wild animals, fish and shrimps. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed immediately."

"That's good."

Zhao Tuo breathed a sigh of relief.

Parasites in the South mainly come from local water, as well as fish, shrimps, snails, frogs and other things.

Once you drink raw water or eat raw animals, the probability of infection is very high.

Solving these two problems is equivalent to cutting off two major sources.

If it were in a place like the northern grasslands, Zhao Tuo's order to only drink hot water and eat cooked food might not be easy to implement. After all, the amount of fuel consumed by an army of tens of thousands in one day is very large.

There is no such trouble in Yue. There are trees everywhere in the mountains and plains. No matter how the Qin army boils water, it is enough. This is why the order to drink hot water can be carried out smoothly.

However, in Zhao Tuo's view, it is not enough to cut off the source of parasites from water and food sources.

After all, there are so many ways to get infected by parasites. For example, mosquitoes can spread malaria, making it inevitable for people to avoid it.

With the example of Feng Wuze in front of us, water poisonous parasites and diseases are the first issues that the army considers when setting out for an expedition.

Only by solving this problem can the Qin army dare to attack Baiyue with confidence.

When Zhao Tuo went south this time, he not only figured out how to prevent parasitic infections. He also invented some methods to treat parasitic diseases.

"Bring those in the army who are infected with water poison and try my medicine."
