However, it turns out that Yue did not seize this good opportunity. According to historical records, Yue paid little attention to the transportation of talents after its development, and even adopted an extinct attitude towards some heroes. Take the literary genre as an example, this civil servant actually provided a lot of help during the revenge of the King of Yue, but after the restoration of the country, he was sentenced to death by Gou Jian. Although there is no clear record about this matter in the history books, some scholars believe that it may be that the conservative attitude of writing style is contrary to Gou Jian's desire for hegemony. It can be seen that Gou Jian did not attach importance to the appointment of talents after the restoration of the country, which can be said to have broken the foundation of governing the country.
On the other hand, the improper strategy of governing the country leads to the weak development of the country. Gou Jian was dormant for many years before he successfully restored the country. Although Gou Jian's mind was extremely mature at that time, under such brilliant circumstances, even Gou Jian, who was so calm and composed, wanted to go north with all his strength. But at that time, all countries were paying attention to domestic reform and strengthening domestic construction to make the country strong. Such a strategy was the correct choice of that era, and Gou Jian's strategy of external expansion was obviously out of date. Therefore, under the influence of this strategy, Vietnam will naturally not get long-term development.
In a word, for Yue, there is a reason for its decline. If we don't seize the good opportunity, then the country will inevitably perish in that era.
