After Qin Shihuang established the empire, in order to consolidate the political power and expand the territory, he ordered Meng Tian to lead a 300,000-strong army to the northern expedition against Xiongnu. He ordered Tu Youyou to lead 500,000 troops south to attack Baiyue. Everyone knows the Huns, so where does Baiyue mean? This Baiyue can be said, especially referring to the residents along the coast from the lower reaches of the Yangtze River to Jiaozhou Bay in the South China Sea. Because of its various castes, it is called? Baiyue? . Why not call it Bai Chu Bai Qi?
As we all know, the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period were Qi Huangong, Jin Wengong, Duke Zhuang of Chu, King He Lv of Wu and King Gou Jian of Yue. Everyone is familiar with this Gou Jian, and it is not easy for him to restore the country. He was defeated by the State of Wu. In order to show cowardice and surrender, he personally led Focha and tasted his shit to see if he was sick. Fu Cha felt that Gou Jian was really convinced and put him back in Yue. After Gou Jian returned to China, with the help of counselors Wen Zi and Fan Li, he quickly made Yue strong, defeated Wu in one fell swoop, and then dominated the Central Plains, becoming one of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period. However, such a powerful country did not become the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period. The reason is that Gou Jian also committed the common fault of emperors. Began to kill heroes after hegemony. First, he drove Fan Li away. According to legend, after leaving with a famous beauty Shi, she changed her name and surname, claiming to be a rich man. Later, Wen Zi got a sword and was forced to die. Besides, Yue is located on the southeast coast, far away from the Central Plains. While all countries in China are trying to improve political reform, he has fallen behind a lot. Finally, it was destroyed by the powerful western state of Chu. After the death of King Yue, several of his clansmen said that they were orthodox and established many small Yue countries. This led to Qin Shihuang's southern expedition, and later Baiyue also referred to many small countries and tribes from the southeast coast to Jiaozhou Bay in Guangdong and Guangxi.
Ironically, Yue, as one of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period, did not live to the Warring States Period, but was eliminated.
