I Can Control My Ancestors-Chapter 335 - 24: Three Years of Hard Campaigns, Pacifying Lingnan (Bonus)
The only lingering gloom in the Southern Border is growing thicker.
The prolonged warfare is indeed torturous for the Han Army.
But it is equally so for the Shanyue!
Their productivity is far inferior to the Great Han, and if the fight continues like this, they will one day be exhausted to death.
And the most crucial factor is—
Strong men are far more important to them than to the Great Han.
No Shanyue tribe can stand aside and watch their strong men continue to die on the battlefield.
An inexplicable division has appeared within the Shanyue coalition.
Although in the short term, it is not enough to cause issues for their alliance, if this internal analysis continues, it will inevitably explode.
They have thought of many solutions.
In the face of the raiding by the Han Army, when they gradually realized that being on guard was not very effective.
They immediately planned to switch from defense to offense.
After all, compared to the Han Army, they are more adept at raiding.
During this scorching summer, both sides engaged in madness over this matter.
But such actions by the Shanyue were precisely in line with Gu Yi’s thinking, as the Han Army had a numerical advantage!
Although Gu Yi could not guard against all of the Shanyue’s forces.
In general, they still held the upper hand.
Time passed by.
Finally, autumn came once again.
As the weather gradually cooled, Gu Yi did not hesitate to launch his attack once more.
East, Middle, West,
The three armies marched forward again.
The immense pressure immediately intensified the internal divisions of the Shanyue coalition.
Gu Yi had been waiting for this day, even though he did not know the exact situation within the coalition this time.
—But he knew the human heart.
There would always be someone who could not withstand such pressure.
The Women’s Department played a significant role at this time, as following the lead of the first tribe to surrender, this move thoroughly brought these divisions to a peak!
But Gu Yi still was not in a hurry.
The Shanyue is fundamentally different from the Barbarians of the Northern Border; their estrangement from the Great Han is too deep.
They must be driven to despair at the core.
The army continued to advance.
Countless people fell one after another on this land.
Finally, as spring transitioned into autumn.
In the twenty-first year of Qianji, February;
The Han Army’s East and Middle route armies converged at Sanshui.
Their forces directly aimed at Panyu.
Meanwhile, the Western route army also advanced steadily.
Under this immense pressure, all divisions among the Shanyue completely erupted.
After nearly three years of intense assault.
This battle seemed to finally be coming to an end.
One after another, tribes sent emissaries, expressing their willingness to surrender to the Great Han.
And as this breach was thoroughly opened.
This battle—
Essentially lost its suspense!
Although total victory was not yet achieved, it was sufficient for Gu Yi.
In the land of Lingnan.
Gu Yi, for the first time using the name of the current Patriarch of the Gu Clan, issued the final proclamation to the Shanyue tribes throughout Lingnan.
"The iron cavalry of the Han is now stationed in Cangwu! You have occupied the Lingnan for many years, divided our territory, and obstructed our cultural unification. Are you not aware that ’flickering fireflies dare to compete with the brilliance of the sun and moon’? Now, with an army of a hundred thousand men crossing the Five Ridges, and thousands of sails blocking the sun, sealing off the Pearl River, your so-called natural barriers will be pulverized under the thunder!
Those who surrender can preserve their ancestral spirits and blood offerings, and their descendants will learn poetry, books, rites, and music to become civilized; those who resist will see Cangwu without an intact egg, and Jiaozhi draped in mourning!"
Those who do not surrender—
Will die!"
This was the proclamation of the Patriarch of the Gu Clan.
This was the proclamation from the descendant of the Nuohu Great Ghost Master!
Once this proclamation was issued, it directly intensified the heavy atmosphere throughout the Southern Border;
Thoroughly brought it to a climax!
