The rescue scene on the Five-Football Road made the whereabouts of the Qin delegation clear in front of the world.

The merchants were shocked by Yang Yu's eight hundred elite soldiers and were cowardly, while the unfortunate goods were thrown to the bottom of the cliff and became the party involved in this famous incident.

In the strong contrast between losing property and gaining "support" by everyone, this businessman of the same place embarked on the road to turning back his hometown. For him, his dream of getting rich has been temporarily shattered, and if he wants to make a comeback, he must first accumulate basic capital.

The Qin delegation traveled south.

The mighty Qin army soldiers were wearing black clothes and black armor, holding long halberds and sharp swords in their hands, and Yang Yu and other generals rode high-headed and strong horses produced in Hetao, just like a god of war in Shi, to the south, the Ou people, Yelang people, and the Dian people showed the great military achievements of the powerful northern countries.

Sweep the six worlds and one in all directions.

Let me ask that the world today is when the Qin Dynasty is in the sky.

The Yelang people, who have always been arrogant, were sincerely impressed this time. The land of Guizhou, where Yelang Kingdom is located, is only separated from Ba County in Qin. In recent years, the Yelang people have truly witnessed that the capital of Ba County has gradually developed from a barren land to the most important water dock and important town in the upper reaches of the river. Yelang Kingdom, as a transit station connecting Lingnan and Qin, has also benefited indirectly a lot.

Lu Jia and Yang Yujun crossed the five-foot road. After being warmly entertained by King Yelang, they went east along the Xijiang River and came to Guilin County. Here, Zhao Guang, the King of Cangwu, represented Zhao Tuo, welcomed the Qin delegation from afar.

Zhao Guang is 36 years old this year.

It was the time when a man was the most powerful and powerful. Although he, the King of Cangwu, had to admit that Zhao Guang himself was still quite capable. In Cangwu, there were many unknown people from Yue and Ou. There were many conflicts with each other. Zhao Guang was able to control the situation in Cangwu and not be in chaos.

Three counties in Nanyue.

Among Nanhai, Guilin and Xiangjun, Nanhai County is the only one in the world, with four large counties, namely Panyu, Sihui, Boluo and Longchuan, with a population of more than 300,000. Xiangjun is deeply involved in the barren land of the Indochina Peninsula. It is sparsely populated and has a weak strength, so it cannot compete with the other two counties.

Guilin County was originally just in the middle and its strength was not very strong, but a little change caused Guilin County to undergo a different change.

The connection of Lingqu canal has benefited people in Guilin and Cangwu. As a key node connecting the river and the Pearl River water system, Lingqu not only communicates with the north and south, but more importantly, it has opened its arms to the people of the Central Plains, which have always been closed, for the first time.

When the spiritual channel was open, Zhao Guang lived a proud life. Just this important waterway channel gave him endless money.

However, things change.

More than ten years have passed since Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rose up in Daze Township, and the traffic in Lingqu has been stagnant for more than ten years. The only thing that can bring some income to Zhao Guang is the Mei Yue people. The people of Xiou occasionally bring some prey from the mountains and the taxes levied when they pass by.

Lingqu.

This is a canal of life and a canal of wealth.

It made Zhao Guang feel both happy and extremely troubled. Now, the Qin army's troops have reached Changsha, only one step away from Lingqu. Zhao Guang naturally longed for the Qin army to defeat Mei Juan, so that the Lingqu can be opened again and his pocket can be bulged again.

As for whether he, King Cangwu, can still be the king, Zhao Guang can see clearly that if he can also take the Qin line, then there will be great hope of Cangwu being a king and prince in Guilin. If he offends Qin, even if Zhao Tuo is behind him, I am afraid that this king and prince will not be the king and prince for a long time.

Lu Jia showed a very high kindness towards Zhao Guang's attitude. On behalf of Li Yuan, he formally invited Zhao Guang to Chang'an and his party when he had free time. This move was also a wonderful move by Lu Jia to test Zhao Tuo's attitude. He wanted to tell Zhao Tuo that if he continued to be half-hearted and unwilling to accept the jurisdiction of the central government, then Qin would not continue to wait for him.

June 13th.

The Qin delegation arrived in Panyu.

On the morning of this day, Lu Jia did not care about rest and immediately proposed to the Prime Minister of Nanyue, Lu Jia, asking to see Zhao Tuo. However, Lu Jia politely declined Lu Jia's request for advice on the grounds that Zhao Tuo was not in good health.

The Qin delegation was coldly treated. This was a situation that Lu Jia had never encountered when he was on an envoy last time. You should know that when he first came to Lingnan, the new Qin was still fighting fiercely with King Liu Bang of Han and King Xiang Yu of Chu. At that time, Zhao Tuo was very courteous to Lu Jia, a Qin envoy from Guanzhong.

One time and another time.

Lu Jia and Yang Yu stayed in the inn. Soon they discovered that even their daily actions were closely monitored. In the end, even Prime Minister Lu Jia no longer showed up. Instead, they were soldiers from the South Vietnamese who were fully armed and unkind outside the inn. If Yang Yu had not had 800 Qin army guards in his hands, these South Vietnamese soldiers might have rushed in directly.

What made Lu Jia even more worried was that among the generals of the South Vietnamese who were monitoring the team outside, he unexpectedly discovered a familiar figure. If he had not admitted his mistake, Lu Tai, the former subordinate of Liu Bang who had been missing for a long time, turned into a powerful general of the South Vietnamese a few years later.

Given Lu Tai's hatred towards Qin, if he was in the middle, Zhao Tuo's attitude could be imagined.

Fifteen days.

When the Qin delegation was trapped in the inn, Zhao Tuo, the King of Nanyue, worshiped the sky at the highest peak of Yuexiu Mountain, and respected Ren Xiao, the former Nanhai County Magistrate, as King Wen, and himself received the title of King Wu.

The news that Zhao Tuo led King Wu himself was secretly hiding from the Qin State in Lingnan. In order to send this secret information into the inn, almost all the people from the Lingnan Military Information Department were exposed and all the casualties were injured. After hearing this information, Lu Jia's face changed drastically. He first said he was sick, but now he called himself King Wu. What Zhao Tuo's thoughts are clear.

Military situation is urgent.

The purpose of the Nanyue Kingdom's embassy in the Qin Kingdom was to take them as hostages so that when Qin Yue turned against him, he could hold a trump card in his hand.

For his ambition, Zhao Tuo even had no choice but to care about his son Zhao Zhongshi's quality in Xianyang.

"Hurry up, call Qi soldiers and leave the city!" Lu Jia urgently ordered Yang Yu to quickly call Qi soldiers and immediately escape from Panyu City. Fortunately, when Lu Jia insisted on letting Yang Yu's escort troops stationed outside the city, Lu Jia insisted on not agreeing, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to escape even if he wanted to escape.

These days, Yang Yu has been very frustrated. After hearing Lu Jia's urgent order, he did not dare to neglect. He quickly ordered the eight hundred Qin troops under him to break out of the inn gate like wind and clouds.

As soon as the Qin army left the door, they met the surveillance team of Lu Tai. The two sides met with enemies and were very jealous. Fortunately, Lu Tai's position in the South Vietnamese army was not good. At best, he was just a small military marquis. Yang Yu rushed forward and suddenly dispersed Lu Tai's troops.

The Qin army left the west gate of Panyu, robbed the ferry on the Pearl River (known as Yushui in ancient times) and rushed westward. When Zhao Tuo, the King of Nanyue, received the reward from Lu Tai, the Qin army had already moved upstream along the Yushui.

In a fit of anger, Zhao Tuo ordered Lu Jia and Lu Tai to lead a unit composed of 5,000 soldiers to pursue him. At the same time, he urgently ordered Zhao Guang, the King of Cangwu, to block the Qin delegation in Guilin County.

——.

Lu Jia was in danger in Panyu City, and the delegation had to fight thousands of miles away to break through many obstacles before returning to Qin.

Along the way, Lu Jia and Yang Yu had basically no support except that the Qin State could provide some help in the local secret, while the South Vietnamese State had the advantage of good time and place.

Yangshan Pass.

An important pass located at the junction of Nanhai County and Guilin County.

Lu Jia and Yang Yu ran here all the way, and finally had to stop. After receiving the order from Zhao Tuo, the people of Xiou who were guarding the pass were ready to set up bows and arrows. Even if they were all willing to do so, they could not break through the steadily and steep pass.

The pursuers behind were getting closer and closer.

There is another dangerous obstacle ahead.

The Qin delegation had no way out. Under such circumstances, even Lu Jia, who had always been eloquent, showed despair.

Contrary to Lu Jia and Yang Yu in despair, Lu Tai was very proud. Prime Minister Lu Jia was just a civil servant and did not know about military affairs. Therefore, the real commander of the five thousand pursuers in Nanyue was actually Lu Tai.

Five thousand people.

This was also the largest force that Lu Tai had commanded the war since his lifetime, even more than when he was under the command of King Liu Bang of Han. At that time, although Liu Bang had more than 100,000 Han troops, Liu Bang's subordinates and generals were also gathered. With Lu Tai's qualifications, he could only be the partial general of his father Lu Ze.

"Lu Jia, you traitor, didn't expect that you will be today!" When Lu Jia's figure was seen from afar, Lu Tai couldn't help laughing loudly.

After a long and hopeless persistence, he finally waited for the day when the clouds cleared and the fog disappeared. Now, Zhao Tuo, the King of Nanyue, had strengthened his confidence in independence, and Lu Tai was now a meritorious general who assisted Zhao Tuo as king. In the absence of capable generals in the South Vietnam Kingdom, it was a foregone conclusion that Lu Tai was reused.

Under Yangping Pass.

The Qin delegation, who had been stranded for a whole day and could not move forward, fell into unprecedented despair. Lu Jia looked up at the northern sky and sighed: "Prince Yang, the army is irreversible until death. Today, Lu Jia will be buried in Yangping Pass. You can escape from the mountains and forests quickly, and maybe one day you can return to Qin. If you can see King Wu again, say to Lu Jia: I will meet him in this life, and Jia will not regret it."

Yang Yu was shocked and said anxiously: "Doctor Lu, this Yang's duty is to protect your safety. If you escape without authorization, King Wu will definitely be angry-!"

Lu Jia smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay. I will write a book, and I will say that you have been ordered by me and escaped without permission. The enemy is approaching, so you can go and prepare quickly."
