Chapter 126 Siege
of the City
Youzhou is one of the thirteen prefectures of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with eleven counties and ninety counties. The capital of Ji County is Ji County, and the county is under the jurisdiction of: Dai County, Shanggu County, Fanyang County, Yan State, Yuyang County, Youbeiping County, Liaoxi County, Changli County, Liaodong County, Xuantu County, Lelang County, and Dianfang County.
Lu Yun originally wanted to carefully understand the third picture of the Heavenly Book, but unexpectedly, he arrived at Jixian, the capital of Youzhou, and handed over the rights to find out that the situation in Youzhou was quite bad and half had fallen.
Yes, Youzhou... has fallen halfway!
It is not because of the Yellow Turbans in Youzhou, but because of the foreign tribes in Youzhou.
Liaoxi County, Shanggu County, and Dai County have been occupied by the Wuhuan and Xianbei people.
No wonder he got the position of Youzhou Mu!
The power of Youzhou is really too chaotic and complicated. For anyone in charge of Youzhou, how to deal with these alien races will undoubtedly cause them a headache.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the two most important foreign tribes related to Youzhou were the Wuhuan and the Xianbei.
These two ethnic groups are descendants of a minority called "Donghu" during the Shang Dynasty. In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu Shanyu Maodun led his troops to destroy the Donghu. It is said that the remaining tribesmen of the Donghu fled to "Wuhuan Mountain" and "Xianbei Mountain" respectively, and they reproduced and grew up from then on. They also used their respective mountains as their tribe names, and the Wuhuan and Xianbei people were born in this way.
At first, both the Wuhuan and the Xianbei lived in the former Xiongnu area. In the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty, one of the leaders of the Wuhuan tribe led their tribes to move inward and were allowed to settle near several counties in Youzhou, and were responsible for recruiting other Wuhuan people to come and surrender. At this point, other Wuhuan people gradually joined the ranks of internal migration, and many Wuhuan people outside the Han Dynasty moved in.
These Wuhuans who moved inwardly later gradually developed three large strongholds in Youzhou, namely the Wuhuan in western Liaoning near the western Liaoning Kingdom, the Wuhuan in Shanggu County near Shanggu County, and the Wuhuan in Liaodong near the Liaodong Kingdom, which are generally collectively called the Wuhuan in the three counties.
When the Han Dynasty was powerful, these Wuhuan people acted as the guardian dogs of the Han Dynasty to resist other alien races on the grassland.
However, dogs can bite people when watching the "door". As the Han Dynasty became weaker and weaker, the Wuhuan people not only did not watch the "door" for the Han Dynasty, but instead often led tribes on the grassland to rob the Han border together.
Now, although the Yellow Turban of Youzhou was repelled, it also consumed a lot of vitality from the Han army in Youzhou. The Wuhuan people began to be ready, as if they wanted to bite off a few more pieces of meat from the territory of the Han Dynasty.
The situation in Youzhou is very unstable, and there are often small groups of cavalry robbers, and no chickens and dogs can be left wherever they pass.
"It turned out that I had taken a mess!" Lu Yun stood in the Jixian County Government and thought, casually glanced at the officials under his command, as if they were absent-minded and a little afraid.
Without thinking too much, Lu Yun knew that the people of Youzhou were unstable.
A Yellow Turban rebelled was already cruel enough, and I don’t know how many officials died.
Now, foreign forces are starting to move again!
"Send the order. From today on, I will recruit soldiers and horses in Youzhou, and directly recruit 50,000 troops!"
Lu Yun gave the order.
"Fifty thousand?" A minor official trembled and shook his head quickly, looking fearful. "Sir, no!"
"My elder brother said, just let me do it, and you can't speak!"
On the side, Zhang Fei saw a small minor official disobeying his elder brother's words, and he couldn't help but roar, which scared the minor official to shake again.
"Tell me, what's wrong?" Lu Yun was a little curious and waved his hand, asking his second brother not to scare the child.
"Sir, the area of Youzhou is bitter and cold, and the food and grass are scarce, and it depends entirely on the support of Jizhou. However, now the Yellow Turban Thiefs in Jizhou are everywhere. If I recruit 50,000 troops in Youzhou, there will be not enough food and grass! Besides..."
"Just say yes, I won't blame you!" Lu Yun smiled slightly when he saw the little official wanting to speak but stopping.
The little official then continued: "Besides, if there are too many troops in my Youzhou, the Wuhuan people will not be too happy, and they may not... they will siege the city!"
"I recruited a large army in Youzhou, but I didn't rely on the support of the Wuhuan people. Why are they unhappy? If they dare to siege the city, they will definitely be unable to afford it!"
Zhang Fei was angry and nagged again. Lu Yun took a look and then shut up after he shut up.
"Sir, you don't know that if you are not supported by the Wuhuan people in this Youzhou, you may not be a good official!" The little official finished speaking simply.
"I see!"
Lu Yun understood the words of the little official.
The Wuhuan people were originally a nation that the Han Dynasty took in and guarded the frontiers of the Han Dynasty, but it seems that as time progressed, they gradually forgot that they were taken in.
They are not satisfied with their current status.
They still maintain the characteristics of a prairie wolf.
As soon as the Central Plains dynasty weakens, they will pounce on them and bite them a few times.
Now, a bad habit has been formed: if you want to be an official in Youzhou, you must please them first, otherwise, they don’t mind telling the official in Youzhou who has the biggest fist!
Or, they don’t mind changing another official in Youzhou.
Lu Yun remembered Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou in history, because he mainly wanted to win over these alien races. Even so, there was still the reason for Gongsun Zan.
If Gongsun Zan hadn't hated these grassland aliens very much, and had to fight for the battle and feared these grassland aliens, Liu Yu would have come out and blushed and picked up a bargain.
Without Gongsun Zan, Liu Yu would not be able to sing alone.
"It's really against the sky!" Lu Yun snorted coldly, then remembered that he was also a person who wanted to resist the sky, so he changed his tone: "It's so arrogant! If you pass the order, just recruit the army like this, I want to see if they dare to come!"
"grown ups!"
"I have decided! Don't say much."
"Yes!" The clerk had no choice but to obey the order.
But seeing him closing his eyes in despair, it is believed that the Wuhuan army will invade soon.
If the Wuhuan army dared to come, Lu Yun would not mind killing.
There are too many people in the Central Plains, so he has never had much chance of victory.
What he met was either a powerful existence like the Sword Saint who could hold a fixed space, or a man like Zhang Jiao, who wanted to kill the sky. Even though he had reached the peak of the Grandmaster, he was still not enough to see it, and he was abused.
Now, if the aliens dare to invade, he will never show mercy.
After all, he was also an existence that destroyed Liao by the Song plane and forced the Jin people to travel east to America!
There are definitely not a few people who died under his command!
He just was short of the horses needed by the cavalry, and he would collect as much as he came!
I guess, if I have fully fought with foreign enemies, the divine formation will not pay attention to him.
...
Lu Youzhou's words of recruiting a large army made the people of Youzhou happy, but angered the Wuhuan army.
Ten days after Lu Yun recruited a 50,000 army, the Wuhuan people led a large army.
Not only the Wuhuan people, but also the Xianbei people.
The Wuhuan people united with the Xianbei people on the grassland, and a total of more than 200,000 string-controlling men surrounded Jixian.
