Chapter 266 The purpose is to pry open the gate of Baiyue
The King of Xiou and others looked at the leader who made the proposal: Brother, how did you say such a bad idea?
I didn’t hear what the Qin envoy said. They were sent as envoys under the order of the Qin Emperor and represented the Qin Emperor. You proposed to capture the Qin envoy and torture them to force them to hand over the secret recipe. That’s not true. Slap Emperor Qin in the face properly?
Even if Emperor Qin has a good temper, he can't stand it, right?
What's more, I heard that Emperor Qin's temper was very bad. Even if he knew that Xiou was difficult to attack, he would definitely send troops to save face.
Seeing so many people looking at him, the leader gave his reason.
He said confidently: "The people of Qin are indeed powerful, but we are not weak either. Qin and we are far apart. The mountains are high and the forests are dense on the way. It is difficult for the Qin army to transport food and grass, and they are in the mountains and forests. Among them, the Qin army is far inferior to the Qin clan. If the emperor dares to send troops, he will never come back!"
Everyone understood what this leader meant: It is difficult for Qin to attack them, even if they kill those Qin people, they will definitely be defeated! Even if he slaps Emperor Qin in the face, Emperor Qin may not send troops.
Even if Emperor Qin sends troops in anger, with their strength, the Qin people may not have the last laugh.
There is indeed some truth to this. King Xiou and other leaders also have this idea:
I admit that Da Qin has strength, but I don't think Qin is terrible, let alone that they can't defeat the Qin people.
Of course, this refers to fighting the Qin people in the jungle on their own territory, relying on their rich experience in living and hunting in the jungle to defeat the Qin people.
The historical facts are similar to what they thought. Although Da Qin finally occupied this land, it also paid a considerable price.
In order to conquer Baiyue, Tu Sui died in battle and hundreds of thousands of people were buried with blood. A lot of manpower and material resources were spent on digging the Ling Canal. Even after the occupation, they were still stuck in this quagmire and had to let Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo go. He led hundreds of thousands of Qin troops to guard here.
This place has become a stinking piece of shit for Da Qin, but it has cost a huge price to snatch this piece of shit, which makes it difficult to let go of it, but if you don’t want to throw it away, you have to continue to spend a lot of money to maintain it.
In the end, the First Emperor could only hold his nose and admit it.
After all, he sent someone to snatch this sticky stinky shit back, so what should we do?
I had no choice but to keep it, since it can be counted as his martial arts anyway.
As a result, the land of Baiyue turned into the quagmire of the Qin Empire!
Although what this leader said made sense, it was quickly refuted.
Another leader of the Xiou tribe said: "Husuo's words are reasonable, but what we can think of, the Qin people will not think of?"
The leader who proposed the suggestion did not understand immediately and frowned: "What do you mean by what the old man said?"
The old man said: "Since the envoy of Qin dared to let us know that they have a way to treat malaria, how could he not take precautions in advance? So? So, even if we capture them, I'm afraid we won't be able to find anything through torture."
The Xiou leader named "Husuo" said again: "As long as we act quickly, we can take advantage of the Qin people's unpreparedness. How can we not ask when we are captured? "
Yes, as long as the Qin people are captured before the methods prepared by the Qin people are used, wouldn't it be enough to torture them?
He Lao shook his head and asked a question seriously: "If these Qin people don't know the law of governance, what can we do if we capture them?"
Hearing this, Husuo smiled and said: " How could they not know? If none of them knew it? How dare the envoy of Qin swear so much about Taoism? "
But he smiled, but King Xiou and other leaders did not smile, but were thoughtful. , the smile on Husuo's face gradually disappeared.
No way, the Qin people are so despicable that they sent a group of people who don't know how to treat malaria?
This is obviously not to let them get the law, so as to force them to agree to various conditions set by the Qin people.
Husuo took two heavy breaths. He felt very suffocated, but he couldn't vent this suffocation yet. The same goes for everyone else. The feeling of being grabbed by the Qin people's necks is really uncomfortable.
The hall fell into silence again.
Now they finally understand the method the Qin people are going to use this time: not to send troops, but to use a more despicable method.
These northerners are really despicable and treacherous. They send troops to fight if they have the guts. What kind of skill can they use this method?
Using the method of treating malaria to restrict Baiyue and forcing Baiyue to agree to some conditions of Da Qin was Da Qin's diplomatic strategy towards Baiyue.
This is also the reason why Tu Sui and others sent the envoy to Baiyue even later - it will take time for the doctors of Da Qin to verify the method of treating malaria mentioned by Li Nian.
The Baiyue and the Huns are different.
The Xiongnu were afraid of being beaten by Li Mu, and they were bullied by Donghu and Yuezhi all the year round. The wolf nature of the senior officials had long been worn away.
Therefore, the Xiongnu can gain influence by showing them how powerful they are and saying that everyone is a member of the Chinese family, but Baiyue...
When Da Qin tells him that we are all Chinese brothers, he will look at Da Qin sideways twice and then ask: Who are you? Who is your brother? Don't try to get close, just have some fun. I don't want to be your brother, nor do I want to be your younger brother. Unless you accept me as your father, you can consider it...
If Da Qin uses inducements to corrupt Baiyue's top management, It's also very difficult to do.
Because these Baiyue senior officials are quite autistic, our country is rich in products and can provide enough food and clothing. Although the things you Qin people have are good, we don’t care about them.
As for Da Qin’s coercive methods, the Baiyue people would not even care.
Others are afraid of you, Da Qin, and think that you, Da Qin, are tigers and wolves, but we are not afraid. What we fight in the mountains and forests are tigers and wolves. If you have the talent, come to the Baidu Grand Stage.
This little gadget can neither be induced nor coerced, nor can it be persuaded with righteousness.
But Baiyue also has weaknesses, and malaria that often occurs in Baiyue is one of them.
This method is a bit despicable, but it is easy to use. As long as Baiyue's closed country can be opened, the next thing will be much easier to handle.
For a long time, the King of Xiou said: "As Lao He said, these Qin people should have brought medicine to treat malaria, but they don't know the secret recipe for treating malaria. Even if there are doctors from Qin accompanying them, they probably don't know the medicine. How to make it? "
The leader asked: "But if the Qin people do this, are they not afraid that the medicine they bring cannot cure malaria? "
Before King Xiou could speak, another leader answered on his behalf: "Of course you are not afraid. Malaria is an incurable disease. So what if it cannot be cured?"
"And the people of Qin do not need to All those who have malaria should be cured. Only some of them need to be cured, so that We just need to know that they have a secret cure for malaria.”
Yes, the Qin people are not here to help them treat malaria at all, but to prove to them that they have a secret cure for malaria, so there is no need to cure all patients. , it can cure one or two people out of ten.
The leader who answered on his behalf added: "It is very difficult to know the secret recipe through medicine!"
"Not to mention the difference in diet and medicine between us and the people of Qin, it is the medicinal herbs grown in Qin. Unlike us, some of the medicinal herbs that grow in Qin may not be available here, not to mention that the preparation methods are different and the medicinal effects are also different.”
