General Qin

South of Guilin County, newly established by the Qin State, is a vast jungle. Compared with places like Xiou and Nanyue, the climate is hotter. There are towering ancient trees everywhere, giving off a wild and primitive atmosphere.

Several elephants were lying lazily on the ground, shouting incessantly.

Not far from them, there is a vast flat dam. The weeds and trees on the dam have been cut down and cleared, and there is a wooden stilt-style building.

In one of the wooden houses with a huge beast skull hanging at the door, several people were sitting across from each other.

"Will the Qin army really accept our surrender?"

The speaker was a middle-aged man wearing a yellow feather robe and ivory ornaments on his head.

When he opened his mouth, a stream of hot air came out of his mouth.

King Luo, the leader of the Baiyue Xiang tribe, is also the king who rules over all the Luo Yue tribes.

He held out his fat belly, and while rubbing his belly with his hands, he looked nervously at the man opposite.

A Tu Gu grinned, showing his fangs.

He responded: "The people of Qin will do it."

"I have been observing the Qin people for a long time. They like to recruit and surrender. When the Qin army attacked the Fujian people before, they sent envoys to recruit the tribes of the Fujian people to surrender. They also seduced the king of Fujian and made the Fujian people fall out with us. Later, the Qin army The army marched into our South Vietnam again. They also used tricks to lure the fish tribe, buffalo tribe and other tribes to rebel, and then they united to kill Argus. You see, this time they attacked Xiou and killed Alamo, and then immediately sent people in Recruiting people from Ou to surrender in the mountains is an example."

"So as long as we surrender to the Qin army, they will definitely accept it. This is our opportunity!"

When he said the word "opportunity", Atu Gu couldn't help but lick his lips, and a bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes.

Before King Luo could answer, someone next to him clapped his hands.

"Okay! It's a pity that you Tu Gu didn't become the king of Nanyue. If we Ou people had learned your trick of pretending to surrender to the Qin army and then suddenly launching an attack, then our warriors wouldn't have died in vain like this! Dealing with cunning The cruel Qin people just use tricks!"

Lao Kuda, the leader of the Xiou Frog Division, had a face full of hatred when he spoke.

Since the battle of Heituba six months ago, King Alamo of Xiou was killed by the Qin army. After losing their leader, the remaining Xiou tribe split into three parts.

Some Ou tribes surrendered to the Qin army, begging to continue living on their ancestral land.

Other Ou people migrated deeper into the mountains, hoping to find a new home.

The last group of Ou people who had great hatred for the Qin army, led by Kuda, came to the south and defected to Luo Yue to help the Luo people fight the Qin army.

But this time Luo Yue sent an envoy to the Qin army, pretending to surrender, and secretly preparing an attack plan. It was Atu Gu, the leader of the Tiger tribe, who proposed it. On behalf of the people of Ou, Kuda gave their full support, and finally they jointly persuaded King Luo.

Seeing A Tu's confident look, King Luo went through the plan again in his mind and felt that there was really no problem. Even if the Qin people saw through their plan, the Yue people would actually have nothing to lose.

If the plan succeeds, then he will be able to defeat the Qin army in one fell swoop and win the war between Qin and Yue.

"I hope the people of Qin will be fooled."

King Luo muttered.

He didn't want to fight the Qin army head-on. The scene of his last defeat was still unforgettable to him.

Just as King Luo, Atu Gu, Kuda and others were waiting with great anticipation for the success of the plan, half a month later, the envoy finally returned from his hometown in Xiou.

King Luo brought the elders of his clan, as well as A Tu Gu, Ku Da and other friendly army leaders to listen to the envoy's report.

When the envoy saw Atu Gu, Kuda and others present at first, he hesitated and refused to speak, which made King Luo a little angry.

He patted his belly and scolded: "If the Qin people have anything to say, just say it. I, the men in the Xiang Department, don't need to hide their words. Is it because the Qin people don't agree with our surrender?"

A Tu Gu and Ku Da stared at the messenger intently.

The envoy was helpless and whispered: "Back to your Majesty, the Qin people agreed to our surrender and agreed to let us continue to live on the land of our ancestors. But we must be like the tribes they conquered before. What kind of counties will the Qin people set up here?" , sent officials to manage it, and also requested that the king should no longer be called king, but should be reduced to the title of emperor. From now on, we must contribute local products to the emperor of Qin every year."

Establish counties and counties, lower the title of king, and contribute special products.

The requirements of the Qin people were actually not too much for the Yue people.

When there was civil war between their tribes, one tribe conquered another tribe, either by killing all the men of the other tribe and using the women and children as slaves, or by making the other tribe a vassal for various large-scale exploitations, just like what Argus did to his tribes before. .

King Luo couldn't help but feel moved. As a strong party, the conditions proposed by the Qin army were very good, much better than what he had imagined before.

Unfortunately, the envoy's next words made King Luo's hair suddenly stand on end.

The envoy said in a trembling voice: "The people of Qin have one more condition, which is...that the king give them the heads of the leaders of the Tiger Tribe and their capital elders, so that they can accept the surrender of the king."

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

The eyes of everyone in the room fell on King Luo and A Tu Gu.

A Tu Gu's face was ashen and he clenched his hands into fists.

These Qin people actually wanted his life.

He turned his head and looked at King Luo suddenly.

King Luo's eyes flickered a little.

A Tu Gu laughed loudly: "Hahaha, King Luo, our plan has worked! You agree to this request of the Qin people, but you have to offer my A Tu Gu's head to the Qin State in person during the surrender ceremony. This can actually reduce the people of Qin's defensiveness. When the time comes, we launch a sudden attack during the ceremony and kill them unexpectedly. If we capture or kill their general, we will win the battle. Got it!"

Kuda's eyes lit up and he responded: "Okay, this is to follow the Qin people's request to implement the strategy, and our chances of winning will be greatly increased."

King Luo was stunned for a moment and thought that this seemed to be a good idea.

A Tu Gu's next words made King Luo tremble even more.

"King Luo, don't be fooled by the lies of the Qin people. They say that if the Luo people surrender, your status and wealth will be preserved, but in reality? The king of the Fujian people, the king of Nanyue, the king of the Ou people, Which one will survive in the end?"

"The Qin people want to rule the tribes in Yue. They will never spare the life of any king. Now their condition is just to stabilize you. When you really surrender, it only takes a few Qin warriors to kill your head. Cut it off. So don’t take chances. You are just like me, A Tu Gu. You have no other choice than to fight against the Qin people to the end!"

King Luo swallowed.

Atu Gu was right. King Zou Wuzhu of Minyue, King Agus of Nanyue, King Yiyusong of Xiou and Alamo were all dead.

Except for the earliest small country Dongou, no king of the Yue people could survive.

If he surrenders and falls into the hands of the brutal Qin people, he may not end well in the end.

At this moment, King Luo's heart, which was wavering because of the good conditions of the Qin army, became firmer.

He roared: "A Tu Gu, you are right. The Qin people and I have no choice but to fight to the death, so I will do as you say and send people to tell the Qin people that I agree to their request! Wait until they relax Be alert, and then we will take the opportunity to attack and kill all these intruders!"

"King Luo is really wise."

A Tu Gu smiled.

Want his A Tu Gu’s head?

He wants the Qin army to bleed like a river here!
