With Jie Jun's death, the war in the southwest lost its suspense. This Yue people's hero eventually died in the hands of his own people and in his own hands. From the perspective of the unified rule, he was a sinner, which seriously hindered the national unification. However, from the perspective of the Yue people, he was an absolute hero, a hero who fought to the end for the independence and independence of the Yue people.

After Jie Jun's death, Zhao Kang was always thinking about his original answer. Jie Jun once asked him why he attacked Baiyue, but Zhao Kang just gave him an answer without any basis. The beginning of this war was when Yue people robbed and killed the tribute envoys. However, there were many types of Yue people. The Western Yue where Jie Jun was located did not border with Qin. The act of the robbery people of the East Yue people was the act of the West Yue people and had nothing to do with the Western Yue.

The Yue people massacre and attacked Qin's land, which was also the lie that Zhao Kang deceived Zhao Kuo in order to successfully start the war... The Qin State's goal has always been great unification, but now, great unification has been completed, and Baiyue is not within the concept of great unification, so it seems that it is not suitable to declare war with the interface of great unification. Zhao Kang thought for a long time, but did not come up with a positive answer. Why did Qin State attack Baiyue?

In fact, it is very simple. For the sake of land, resources, and military merits, the emperor wanted to make his territory bigger, while Zhao Kang hoped that his title would be higher, and the soldiers wanted to fight for a future through war. On the original historical line, Qin State expanded everywhere and never hid his own ideas. Qin State attacked various places for land and for profit. Who dared not to accept it?

When the Han Dynasty was established and the Chinese culture moved closer to the direction of moral etiquette, the Han Dynasty realized that it could not be the same as the Qin Dynasty. We are a moral country, so how could we mobilize troops without reason? The mainstream idea of ​​the Han Dynasty was Confucianism, which was the most polite and moral. Of course, it would not be a nameless army. If the army became famous, it was not just a talk. Therefore, most foreign wars during the Han Dynasty were defense wars, and it was a counterattack war launched because the enemy took the lead in attacking.

Confucianism quickly realized that this was wrong, and we could not watch the enemy attack and then counterattack? So, Confucianism of the Han Dynasty proposed a mission theory, that is, the Han Dynasty had the obligation to enlighten all over the country, so the Han Dynasty's foreign war was not conquest, but a process of spreading civilization. Is this a bit familiar? However, these are all problems that thinkers need to solve, and Zhao Kang only needs to solve the enemy.

Zhao Kang was not a sentimental person. He was a pure general. After killing Jie Jun, he quickly changed his original deployment and began to try to use intimidation to make the other tribes surrender. Baiyue's most virtuous king and the most powerful general died one after another, which minimized Baiyue's will to resist. When Zhao Kang began to persuade the tribes to surrender with both kindness and power, the results were very good.

In just two months, more than twenty small Baiyue tribes led people to surrender, and the other large tribes began to shake.

The good news of the war in the southwest was soon passed back to Xianyang. The war in the southwest was not mentioned by everyone because it was a bit embarrassing. It took three years for the Northern Army to collectively attack a barbarian, which made the First Emperor very angry. He thought that he could solve his opponent in three months. After all, the opponent was just a tribal alliance with a population of less than 500,000, and South Korea's paper strength was stronger than Baiyue.

Fortunately, Zhao Kang played an important position in Qin State, so the emperor did not punish him. Until General Tu Sui died, the emperor wrote a letter to scold Zhao Kang, but did not lower his title. However, this really cannot be blamed for Zhao Kang. Baiyue is different from South Korea. The most difficult thing for Baiyue to deal with is that it is not easy to find them. They drilled into the mountains and forests and then launched sneak attacks based on the advantages of terrain and climate. It is already very good that Zhao Kang can gain the upper hand.

Taiwei Liao therefore told the emperor several times, asking the emperor not to be impatient. If a general was replaced by Zhao Kang, unless Wu Chenghou went there personally, he would definitely be defeated. The emperor had never thought of replacing Zhao Kang... However, the war in the southwest was not dared to mention it again. They just thought that nothing had happened, and even the officials who recorded history books did not record the detailed content of the war, and just thought that nothing had happened.

Well, this is the case with the Qin State on the original historical line. They like to record the great victory wars, and they write endlessly. As for the lost wars, well, is there such a thing? Oh, yes, then just write it down and say that the Qin State's army has retreated. This situation continued until the news of Jie Jun's death came, and the emperor was overjoyed and summoned all the ministers to discuss the war.

Only then did everyone realize that it seemed that the war in the southwest would end soon.

......

The wind gently brushed across the ground, and the weeds fluttered with the wind. The weeds here did not grow tall, only to their ankles. Many livestock could be seen in the distance. Cattle and sheep were looking at the endless grassland with their heads down, while the herdsmen waved their whips in their hands and looked around from a high place. This is the camp of the Huns. Since the Huns were defeated by Li Mu, they have completely lost their former arrogance and tyranny.

Now they live a life of living under the protection of the Yuezhi King. They survived with difficulty under the protection of the Yuezhi King. They became affiliated with the Yuezhi and provided a lot of tributes to the Yuezhi every year, which made the Huns miserable. As the former new overlord, they have now fallen to such a level, which is something the Huns never thought of and are difficult to accept. Of course, the Huns' Khan Yu Touman are even more so.

Touman never forgot to take revenge in his heart. Over the years, he has been secretly accumulating strength and waiting for the opportunity. He has won over talents from all over the world and formulated a series of new systems. As long as there is a chance, he believes that he will be able to bring the Huns back to the position of overlord again. Today, for Touman, it is a happy day. A general who defected from Qin State brought dozens of his confidants to the grassland.

The talent-loving Shanyu Touman tried his best to finally invite the general to his side. Sitting in the camp, Touman looked at the burly general beside him, his eyes full of excitement and joy. He really wanted talents from the Central Plains too much. He believed that only those talents from the Central Plains could bring new changes to the Huns. This defected general was called Shun, tall and rough.

The two of them didn't understand each other, so they needed a translator. However, when Shanyu learned that the general in front of him understood Zhao Yu, he happily asked in the skilled Zhao Yu: "You actually understand Zhao Yu?"

When he heard this extremely experienced Zhao Yu with a Handan accent, Shun was suddenly confused. He should ask the other party himself, why can you, the Huns, say Zhao Yu, who is more like a Handan person than a Handan person?

Shun was stunned for a moment before saying, "I was originally from Zhao, but later I surrendered to Qin... Of course I understand Zhao Yu... But how could you... know?"

Touman Shanyu laughed. On weekdays, he had never found an opportunity to show his language talent. Finally, there was a way to understand. How could he miss such a good opportunity? He shook his head and said, "I learned the words of Zhao before, but I didn't learn them very well... It's too difficult and I can't learn them." Shun took a deep breath and said, "You said this very well... very well."

Touman could not suppress his joy in his heart. He asked about some of Shun's situations. Shun talked about the story made by Gan Luo for them. A Zhao man who loved Zhao deeply was forced to become a general of Qin. He was always rejected by the Qin people, unwilling to be humiliated, and unwilling to live a life of living under others... Sure enough, this resonated with Touman. Touman also missed the Zhao country at that time, of course, the Zhao country without Li Mu.

The two chatted for a long time, and the more they chatted, the happier he became. He couldn't find anyone to chat with him on the grassland. These people didn't know what he was saying. He told Shun all the words he had hidden in his heart over the years and those allusions he had learned, regardless of whether the allusions were used properly. Shun was frightened anyway. If he hadn't known that the real Xiongnu Khan in front of him, he would have thought that the person in front of him was also a spy sent by Gan Luo!

"You have come to the grassland now, and no one here knows any etiquette... If you can stay in my tribe, I am willing to let you be the general..." Touman began to recruit Shun. Shun frowned and seemed a little hesitant. As an old spy who has been active in various countries for many years, he is still very skilled in playing hard to get. He said embarrassedly: "I am just a rebel general, I am afraid..."

"I am willing to ced the land and give you ten thousand people..." Touman is still trying to use the benefits to convince.

Shun just felt that the spy journey was too smooth. As soon as he arrived at the grassland, the Huns Chanyu invited him to go and sent people several times. He couldn't agree. Now this is even more so. He was still trying to contact the enemy, but he didn't expect that the enemy would just come. Shun hesitated for a long time and chatted for a whole day. Shun finally reluctantly agreed to Touman's request.

Both of them were very happy, and Touman hurriedly held a banquet to celebrate.

Shun settled in the Xiongnu tribe and became the general whom Touman relied on. He proposed to understand the Xiongnu tribe. Touman did not hide his own personal information, so he asked someone to take him to inspect the Xiongnu tribe, which was also considered to increase his understanding of the grassland... Following his young Xiongnu people, Shun rode a horse, which was considered to have an accurate understanding of the current Xiongnu. During this period, he became familiar with the young Xiongnu.

The young Huns could speak some Zhao Yu and Qin Yu, and they were not very skilled. They could express their meaning when they pointed and were also learning Huns. The two were teaching each other, riding a horse, and they ran on the grassland together. On a high slope, the two stopped and looked at the grassland in the distance. In the quiet sunshine, the endless grassland always brought people a different kind of peace.

"There are all the territory of the sons of the Shanyu?"

"Yes...there are all here, but it is all governed by the Shanyu, after all, the prince is too young."

"How many children does Shanyu have?"

"There are three sons. This is Chen'a's territory. We just passed by Qi Chenye's territory."

"It seems...one one is missing."

"Yes, Maodun, the eldest son of Shanyu, we don't know where he was. He left when he was very young..."

Shun narrowed his eyes, nodded, and did not ask any more questions... This was the first task assigned by Gan Luo, and Shun can now relate many things, but more of it is his guess, and he needs to confirm it himself. Shun went to many places and finally returned to his tent. After returning to the tent, he began to record the situation about the Huns he had seen over the days.

At this moment, he heard the noise from outside the door, hurriedly hid the paper. After a while, he walked out of the tent with some displeasure. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong here?" When he questioned, the Hun knights who were assigned to him by the Shanyu in the distance put away the anger on their faces and hurried to him. They explained in the Hun language and pointed at a woman in the distance.

Shun frowned and looked at the woman in the distance. The woman looked older. She bent over, her hair was gray and her whole body was dirty... Shun listened to the samurai's explanation and barely understood some of the meaning. This woman could not get close to her, otherwise she would be targeted by the nobles... Shun pushed away the several samurai who were blocking her and walked directly to her. He lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

The woman suddenly became excited and asked in the Xiongnu language. She asked a lot, but Shun couldn't understand. Seeing the confused Shun in front of her, the woman slowed down her speech and said a few more times. Shun gradually understood, "Are you from Qin? Have you ever seen a Lin Hu proton?" At that moment, Shun lit up, and nodded and said, "I have heard of him, but I don't know who he is?"

The woman hesitated for a moment and said, "He is... a relative of mine. Do you really know him? How is he doing? How did he live?"

"I heard that he was not doing well..." Shun squinted his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him seriously. Sure enough, at that moment, the woman's face became a little dark. She couldn't speak for a long time. She just wiped her tears, but said nothing. She lowered her head and left here in a daze. Shun sent her away, and hurriedly asked her warriors, who was this?

From the words, Shun understood that the woman was the wife of Shanyu, equivalent to the queen, but she was not favored, and Shanyu refused to see her again. After Shanyu's new wife gave birth to two sons for Shanyu, she began to target her everywhere, and even no one allowed to help her. She grazed everywhere every day... Anyway, she had a hard life. Shun narrowed her eyes, waited for a moment, and then prepared to rush to Shanyu.

When he arrived at the Chanyu, he happened to see the woman lying on the ground with a bloody head. The woman was still begging hard. Shun could barely understand a few words like "Please let him come back". Touman seemed to be about to take action, but when he saw Shun, he stopped. He did not want Shun to see his barbaric side. In front of Shun, he was a wise and polite king. He waved his hand and asked the warriors to drag the woman out.

At this time, Shun Fang said: "Shanyu, this woman came to me just now and asked about the situation of Prince Linhu. I think something is wrong, so I came to find you..."

Touman narrowed his eyes, hesitated for a long time, and said, "That Prince Linhu, he is my wife's distant relative. She wants me to help pick him up, but I don't want to."
