What is the composition and origin of Cantonese people?

After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, he misjudged the situation and thought that the Central Plains had surrendered forever. So the army was divided into two parts. One army fought against the Huns in the north, and another army of 500,000 people conquered Baiyue in the south under the leadership of Zhao Tuo, a general who later became the "King of South Vietnam".

According to historical records, when Zhao Tuo led 500,000 troops to conquer Baiyue, he fought bitterly with local ethnic minorities in the jungle area. Of course, Qin Jun, which was obviously superior in equipment, number of people and scientific and technological level at that time, succeeded in conquering Baiyue. Thus, Guangdong and Guangxi belonged to the Central Plains regime for the first time.

After that, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu competed for the Central Plains. The Qin Dynasty originally ordered Zhao Tuo to bring an army back to the Central Plains to counter the rebellion, but Zhao Tuo refused, and took the opportunity to establish himself as king in Panyu, calling the Guangdong-Guangxi region and now the northern part of Vietnam "South Vietnam". This regime lasted until the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

By the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains had stabilized, and Emperor Wu sent troops south to annihilate the "Nanyue State". Since then, Guangdong and Guangxi have always belonged to the Central Plains regime, and it has also become a paradise for the Han people in the Central Plains to flee south in the long river of history.
