Chapter 109 Yunnan ② Separatist regime
The 29th year of Emperor Qin Shi Huang
Comparing the map given by the light curtain with the current map of Daqin, Meng Yi suddenly thought: "This place seems to be the location of Zhuang Qiao of Chu State."
Zhuang Qiao of the Chu State was originally a general of King Qingxiang of Chu. He once led his army through Qianzhong County and attacked southwestward. However, due to repeated struggles for Qianzhong County, Zhuang Qiao's return was blocked and there was no news of his return to Chu since then.
The Qin State explored the border next to Baiyue and it seemed to be Dian State, which was very similar to the place where Zhuang Qiao of Chu State lost contact. Now that the light curtain mentioned Yunnan, it also called its soldiers the Dian Army. The people of Qin State could not help but think: Dian State is the Yunnan of later generations!
Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng remained silent, thinking about the future development direction of the Qin Dynasty. The Baiyue place must be included in the territory of the Qin Dynasty, but when talking about the exile place of the dynasty, the video said that this place
[It was hot, humid, and rainy, with many snakes, insects, rats, and ants, and miasma and malaria were frequent. Many prisoners did not even make it to their destination and died on the way.]
It can be seen that it is not an easy task to completely conquer the Baiyue. Is it the same for the neighboring Dian Kingdom?

Han Dynasty, the fourth year of Yuanshou
Liu Che was looking at the map with great interest, but suddenly he discovered that the Kingdom of Dian did not seem to be within the territory of the Han Dynasty.
"Huo Qubing is willing to conquer the Kingdom of Dian for Your Majesty." Huo Qubing stepped forward to ask for the order.
After all, who doesn’t want the Han Dynasty to be strong?
What's more, this is the big man who just won the Battle of Mobei!
"Ahem, Dian may not need the general to do it himself." Ji An was determined to stop the trend of war in the court. The Han Dynasty had spent a lot of money to fight the Xiongnu, and the people had long complained. It would be best for the people of the Han Dynasty to rest and recuperate at the right time.
Ji An's political proposition was to support the policy of inaction and oppose war against the Huns.
Liu Che was very unhappy when he heard this, but he did not show it because Ji An was an old friend and elder.
Ji An continued, "Dian is a small country. Three years ago, a Han envoy went to Dian. In my opinion, if we send a Han envoy with some followers to meet the King of Dian and explain our intentions, they will not refuse to submit to us."
"Good! This statement really pleases me!" Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, looked at Ji An with admiration and finally said something nice.

[Lifeline - Burma Road]
(A road is shown in the video and a voice-over begins.)
[On the front line, the Yunnan Army soldiers fought bravely.
In the rear, the Yunnan people also had their own battlefield.
Japan blocked the coast and prevented the entry of aid materials to China. At this time, the opening of new roads was a top priority.
Even before the construction started, American experts conducted an on-site inspection in Yunnan and said that it would take at least three years to complete the project.
However, the order given to Long Yun by the Nationalist government only lasted for one year.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, young and strong laborers went north to fight against the Japanese, and most of those who remained in the province were the elderly, the weak, women and children.
Starting from December 1937, a 12-strong road construction army, mainly consisting of the elderly, children and women, brought their own rations, slept in the open air, and began to build roads.
(The picture shows the tools people used to build the railway at that time, and the workers working.)
During the one-year road construction, nearly 500 people died from landslides, cliff falls, and explosions, and nearly were injured or disabled. On the -kilometer-long road from Dali to Wanding, an average of six workers died per kilometer.
In nine months, the people of western Yunnan dug out a lifeline for the war of resistance with their fingers. This is the Burma Road, which is known as "a great miracle".
＜“Road carved with fingers”＞
＜I was moved when I listened to the tour guide's story when I went there.＞
They all put the country above their own family.
＜At that time, it was truly a war of resistance by all the people [crying]＞
People from all dynasties showed envy in their eyes at the roads displayed on the light curtain.
Qin Shi Huang was moved. This is what the Qin Straight Road in my mind should be like!
The people's active resistance and insistence on building roads made Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, fall into deep thought.
In the original history, wasn't it Yang Guang's massive conscription of laborers, building canals, and fighting wars that led to the collapse of the Sui Dynasty?
Yang Jian was determined not to let history repeat itself, and looked at Crown Prince Yang Yong: "Yong'er, do you see anything?"
“???” Yang Yong was immersed in the cohesion of the people in western Yunnan, and was suddenly asked a question by his father, Yang Yong was full of confusion.
What? What do you want me to say?
"Well... they are really amazing..." Yang Yong's stuttering words obviously made Yang Jian unhappy, so he gritted his teeth and said: "They... uh... it was not easy to build this road..."
"Idiot!" Every time Yang Jian heard Yang Yong's words, he felt his blood boiling. If he let this idiot become the emperor, the Sui Dynasty would perish in the second generation just like in history.
"I am asking you if you can't feel the difference in this?"
After Yang Jian's advice, Yang Yong finally understood what he was going to say. It was just to scold Yang Guang...

[Separatist regimes in Yunnan]
[Historically, the separatist regimes in Yunnan were quite aggressive, and their threat to the imperial court was second only to the nomadic peoples in the north. Moreover, the separatist regimes in Yunnan were often long-term and difficult to eliminate completely.
Let's not talk about Liangzhou and Baipu Kingdom in the Nine Provinces of Yu Gong. From the end of the Warring States Period to the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, there was Dian Kingdom between Ailao and Yelang. In the second year of Yuanfeng of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu sent envoys to Dian Kingdom, and Dian Kingdom surrendered. The Western Han Dynasty established Yizhou County here. Yizhou County is in the eastern part of Yunnan.
The Ailao State emerged from the early Warring States Period to the early Eastern Han Dynasty. In the 12th year of Yongping reign of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ailao King Liu Mao led his entire nation to submit to the Han Dynasty. The Eastern Han Dynasty established Yongchang County here, which was located in the western part of Yunnan.
The three counties of Yizhou, Yongchang and Yuexi in Yunnan were all under the jurisdiction of Yizhou.
In the third year of Jianxing, the last emperor of Shu Han, Zhuge Liang, successfully conquered Meng Huo in the south and established the Nanzhong region. There were seven counties in the Nanzhong region, including Yunnan County.
From the early Western Jin Dynasty to the end of the Liang Dynasty, it was renamed Ningzhou.
During the Chen and Sui dynasties, the Pu State emerged in western Yunnan.
The Northern Zhou Dynasty captured Ningzhou of the Liang Dynasty at the end of the Liang Dynasty, and the Northern Zhou Dynasty established Nanning Prefecture here, in the eastern part of Yunnan. 】
＜When I watched the Seven Captures of Meng Huo before, I saw elephants, beast formations, and rattan armor soldiers, and I kept wondering where Nanbang was [laughing and crying]＞
＜Shu is Sichuan, if the south of Sichuan is not Yunnan then what is it [covering face]＞
＜Sorry, geography is really bad＞
＜Shared a file Geographical map.zip＞
＜After the pacification of Nanzhong, the Wudang Flying Army built by Zhuge Liang against the barbarians became one of the main forces of the late Shu Han Dynasty [Awesome]＞
The 29th year of Emperor Qin Shi Huang
"Dian, Ailao, and Yelang." Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng pointed at these three places on the map, his eyes full of determination to win them.
Han Dynasty, the fourth year of Yuanshou
"......"
The whole country surrendered? Liu Che thought about when the second year of Yuanfeng should be, and considered whether to advance this plan.
Eastern Han Dynasty, 19th year of Jianwu
"It's no big deal if I do it in advance for what my son is going to do in the future." Liu Xiu had already been preparing to set up Yongchang County when Guangmu mentioned that the Ailao Kingdom would submit to the country in the future.
Three Kingdoms Shu Han
Zhuge Liang waved his white feather fan and looked at the map of Yizhou.
"This barbarian Meng Huo must have rebelled! Otherwise, why would the Prime Minister want to capture him?" Zhang Fei listened to the introduction on the screen and became furious: "He must have committed a bigger crime, to have to be captured a seventh time! Such a person is unforgivable!"
"Hey, General, don't be angry." Zhuge Liang stopped Zhang Fei from talking nonsense, then smiled and made a gesture to everyone present that he understood everything and had won.
"Prime Minister, let's not talk about Meng Huo for now. What is this Wudang Flying Army..." The light curtain did not mention Ji Han for a long time. When Liu Bei heard the news about the future Wudang Flying Army in the Nanzhong region, he wished that the Prime Minister would take charge of it immediately.
[In the first year of Emperor Gaozu of Tang's Wude reign, the Yizhou General Administration Office was established. In the first year of Emperor Taizong of Tang's Zhenguan reign, the Jiannan Road was established. In the seventh year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang's Kaiyuan reign, the "Jiannan Jiedushi" was established.
In the ninth year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty's Tianbao reign, Nanzhao Kingdom sent troops to occupy the entire Yunnan province. From then on, Yunnan was under the jurisdiction of Nanzhao Kingdom for more than a hundred years.
The Nanzhao Kingdom was founded in the 26th year of Kaiyuan reign of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. The Nanzhao Kingdom repeatedly surrendered to both Tubo and the Tang Dynasty. After the demise of Tubo, it became a major border threat to the Tang Dynasty and fought a war with the Tang Dynasty for more than a hundred years.
In the second year of Tianfu reign of Emperor Zhaozong of Tang Dynasty, Nanzhao Kingdom was destroyed and Yunnan entered the Great Changhe Era.
In the third year of Tiancheng of Mingzong of Later Tang, the Great Chang Kingdom was destroyed and Yunnan entered the Dayining Kingdom period.
In the second year of Tianfu of Emperor Gaozu of the Later Jin Dynasty, Duan Siping, the governor of Tonghai of the Later Jin Dynasty, destroyed the Dayining Kingdom and established the Dali Kingdom. Yunnan entered the Dali Kingdom era.
＜Emperor Xuanzong of Tang conquered Nanzhao twice, but both times ended in disastrous defeat.＞
＜Regarding the Nanzhao attack on the Tang army during the Tianbao period, I can only say that the other Nanzhao had reached the point where they could no longer tolerate it, and you, Xianyu Zhongtong, were a piece of trash.＞
＜Yes, they were the ones who came to you to ask for peace, but you detained their envoys and insisted on fighting＞
＜Zhang Qiantuo not only demanded money from Geluofeng, but also humiliated Geluofeng's wife. This also led to Geluofeng's sudden killing of Zhang Qiantuo. After killing Zhang Qiantuo, Geluofeng immediately reported to Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and took the initiative to admit his mistake.
As a result, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and Yang Guozhong were too ambitious to be successful and wanted to destroy Nanzhao. In the end, Nanzhao was not destroyed, but the Tang army was defeated. Not long after, the Anshi Rebellion broke out again.
＜Don’t think too highly of Nanzhao. Even if there were no people like Zhang Qiantuo, war would still have broken out between Nanzhao and the Tang Dynasty.
As Nanzhao continued to expand its territory, its ambitions also continued to grow. It was no longer satisfied with being a vassal state of the Tang Empire. It wanted to form a tripartite alliance with the Tang and Tubo.
