Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 187: Conquering the Baiyue in the South and Defeat the Xiongnu in the North
Facing the might of Tathagata at dawn, Cheng Qiao actually chose to fight with one hand.

"One mistake, and I cannot tell the real one from the fake one." Although Tianming had mastered all the skills of Tathagata's transformation, he was still suppressed by Chengqiao with one hand.

The final form of the three initial meditation forms of "The Beginning of Nirvana" broke through the air, but it was still unable to match the power of Emperor Jingtian.

"Wrong two. Your Yuan Gong has been damaged and your body is incomplete." Cheng Qiao Palm used the Samsara Tribulation to direct the Qi to other places.

"Thunder Sound of Zen Sea." Tianming ignored Cheng Qiao's words, forced himself to use his Buddha energy, and used another powerful move.

"Mistake number three, and that's also your biggest mistake. All your martial arts are from me, so how can you be my opponent?" Cheng Qiao used his palm as a knife, recreating the power of Ghost Zen Six Cuts, "Ghost Zen Six Cuts: Wheel of Heaven Burial"

The opposing extremes clashed again, and the result was that the devil Buddha defeated Tathagata.

Tianming was hit by the sword force, but he ignored his own injuries and attacked the person in front of him despite the strong pressure.

"Very good!" Cheng Qiao praised upon seeing this, and then suddenly withdrew his attack, allowing Tianming's palms to hit him heavily on the chest.

The powerful force penetrated his body. Cheng Qiao did not use Void Destruction and Pangu Wuji Body to protect himself. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He said without any concern, "That's enough of being willful. It's time to stop."

After the blow, Tianming, whose resentment had mostly dissipated, said, "Shaoyang Jun, do you think this will end what you did?"

"Ha, why should I explain to you? The only reason I was hit by your palm is because I have been deceiving you all along." Cheng Qiao said.

Hearing Cheng Qiao's words, Tianming couldn't help but said angrily: "Shaoyang Jun, you!"

Cheng Qiao did not give Tianming a chance to reply. He threw a bottle of pills to Tianming and said, "Take one pill from this bottle of pills every day. After ten days, your injuries will be healed. Now my plan is almost complete. The next step is to get rid of Donghuang Taiyi of the Yin-Yang School, and then there will be no worries. Once the First Emperor dies of illness and Hu Hai and Zhao Gao carry out their evil deeds, I will lead the 600,000 Qin troops stationed in Baiyue, Lingnan and Shuzhong to attack Xianyang and replace him. Before that, you must not interfere in the affairs of the martial arts world. After the world is stable, it will be time for you to return to the bitter world with me."

(The Qin army stationed in Baiyue should have been more than 500,000, and Cheng Qiao infiltrated it by taking advantage of the opportunity to attack Baiyue, plus Cheng Qiao's own army of more than 100,000 in the open and in secret in his own fiefdom.)
"The Realm of Suffering?" Tianming traced back the memories in his mind and asked, "Is there really such a person as Emperor Tathagata in the world?"

Cheng Qiao gave a positive answer, "Buddha Emperor Tathagata, the highest guide of Yungu Leifeng, the Buddha of the three major sources of the Four Realms Buddhism, represents the second treasure of the Three Treasures of Buddhism, the Dharma. His experience and martial arts are exactly the same as the memory I gave you, but this person has not yet entered the world. When the opportunity is right in the future, under the guidance of cause and effect, you will meet him."

"Is that so? Then what are you going to do with Gai Nie and the Mo family?" Tianming had gained a lot of experience after this incident. He knew that Cheng Qiao dared to break his plan at this time, so he must not be afraid of being exposed. But Tianming himself had no intention of doing this, so he would not intervene. However, the only thing he was concerned about was Gai Nie, Yue'er and the other people in the Mo family, so he asked this question. Cheng Qiao replied: "Don't worry, as long as the Mo family and Gai Nie are no longer my enemies, I will not take action against them."

"This book is of no use to me, so I'll give it to you." Tianming took out the "Huangshi Heavenly Book" he got from Master Chu Nan, obviously not wanting to owe Cheng Qiao a favor.

Cheng Qiao took the Yellow Stone Book from Tian Ming and said with a smile, "This comes at the right time. It will help Dong Huang Tai Yi to solve the secret of the Blue Dragon Seven Stars."

"You also want to obtain the Blue Dragon Seven Stars?"

Cheng Qiao smiled and said, "No, I want to see Donghuang Taiyi's expression when he tries so hard to get what he has always dreamed of, but still fails."

Hello everyone, I am the dividing line of water word count-——
The battle between Qin and the Baiyue Alliance finally ended with a great victory for the Qin army, which completely conquered present-day Guangxi, Fujian and other places. However, the price paid was also heavy losses. The Qin army's commander-in-chief Tu Sui was killed by a night attack force of the Xiou army in the area of ​​present-day central Guangxi. The Qin army suffered more than 100,000 casualties due to the complex local environment and the desperate resistance of the Baiyue Alliance.

(Historically, the Qin Dynasty mobilized an army of more than 500,000 and fought three times. The Qin army lost nearly 300,000 men in the first battle alone. After that, they changed their tactics, dug the Lingqu Canal, and provided supplies and personnel, and the losses were reduced sharply.)
In addition, a large part of the remnants of the Baiyue still occupied the area of ​​Dong'ou (now Zhejiang).

After the turn of the year, after a period of rest, the State of Qin and its generals learned the lessons of Tu Sui in the war and adopted the strategy of "mobilizing all the fugitives, sons-in-law, and merchants" to follow the army. Whenever the Qin army occupied a place, they would leave some immigrants there. This not only provided the Qin army with a more stable rear base, but also allowed the Qin army to replenish its manpower. The large number of merchants operating in Lingnan also created conditions for the supply of food and wages for the army. In addition, the Lingqu Canal had been completely dug, which accelerated the speed of transporting food to the front line.

Under such advantageous conditions, the Qin army, relying on abundant food and excellent armed equipment, began a large-scale conquest on the battlefield of Baiyue. Wherever the army went, it was fierce and unstoppable. In less than a year, it completely wiped out the last resistance force.

Afterwards, Qin Shihuang began his eastern tour with the purpose of promoting his virtue and power and pacifying the world. At the same time, he sent Fusu to Meng Tian's army and started the war to attack the Huns in the north.

Meng Tian led an army of 300,000 to the north through Longxi and quickly captured the northern part of Hetao. At the same time, the Qin army in Beidi and Longxi also attacked the southern part of Hetao. The Xiongnu soldiers in Henan were mostly scattered tribes and could not resist the Qin cavalry at all. They were defeated one after another. Qin quickly recovered Henan and pushed all the way to Beihe (now Wujia River).

After fighting for Henan, Meng Tian clearly realized that the Xiongnu would not be willing to lose Henan and would definitely organize a counterattack. So he took the initiative and led the main force across the river in the second year, and entered the Yinshan and Helanshan highlands. He found the main force of the Xiongnu in Gaoque, Yangshan, Beijia and other places and fought fiercely with them. The Xiongnu leader, Touman Chanyu, was gathering his troops and preparing to go south, but unexpectedly the Qin army came again and caught them off guard. The Qin army had advantages in soldiers, numbers and arms. Meng Tian's troops won victory after victory, dealing a huge blow to the Xiongnu. Touman Chanyu was forced to withdraw from the Yinshan and Helanshan highlands, retreating more than 700 miles north to the nomadic area in the south of the desert north of the Yinshan Mountains.

At this point, Meng Tian used his troops against the Xiongnu and easily won a complete victory. After that, Meng Tian's 211 troops were stationed in the north to deter the Xiongnu. Qin Shihuang then set up Jiuyuan County in Henan, established counties, built and moved households north in BC, developed Henan, and made it a prosperous new Qin and a rear base to fight against the Xiongnu.

Later, the Qin Dynasty connected the Great Walls of the three kingdoms of Qin, Zhao and Yan and built a Great Wall from Lintao (Minxian, Gansu) to Jieshi in Liaodong. This Great Wall played an important role in resisting the harassment of the Xiongnu and ensuring the stability of production and life of the people in the interior.

PS: Qin Shihuang's second eastern tour was in 219 BC, the same year as his first campaign against the Baiyue. The defeat of the Huns took place between 215 and 213 BC. During this period, Qin also launched its second campaign against the Baiyue. Therefore, the strength of Qin in history was really terrifying.
