Chapter 111, The Panicked Youzhou

Chapter 111, The Panicked Youzhou
Liu Bei said: "Third brother, don't talk nonsense. Now there are more than [-] Xianbei people in the entire Khantan Mountain. Helian, who is a Xianbei king, is easy to kill. If we are not careful, our entire army will be wiped out."

Jian Yong also said: "It's easy to get burned. Originally, He Lian wanted to deal with Lei Gong. After being killed by Yi De, he might turn around and deal with us!"

Even Guan Yu shook his head, saying that the risk was too great. Even if the two of them were enemies of ten thousand people, it was impossible to kill hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people, find Helian and behead them.

Liu Bei said to Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping: "Please go to Hantan Mountain to find out about the situation of the Xianbei people and see their future movements, so that we can prepare for the Tuntian Xiaowei Mansion!"

Su Shuang, Zhang Shiping and others often sell the goods of the big men to the grassland, and sell horses from the grassland back to Youzhou. Naturally, there are many old acquaintances with the Xianbei people, otherwise this business will not be able to go on at all, and now Liu Bei wants them to use them This relationship!
Su Shuang, Zhang Shiping: "I will not disappoint Duke Ming!"

Helian's actions not only shocked Liu Bei, but also shocked the prefects of the entire border county of Youzhou. I was really worried that Helian's hundreds of thousands of cavalry were now attacking by their counties. , but hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people, even Juyongguan, such dangerous passes as Lulongsai, may be breached. The terrain of Youzhou is determined again. Anyone could be the target of the Xianbei people's attack, so they asked Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, for help, asking for reinforcements, ordnance, and food, for fear that the hundreds of thousands of cavalry from the Xianbei people would rush towards them.

Although Liu Yu had some soldiers and food in his hands, how could he satisfy so many eunuchs' requests for help.He could only report the movements of the Xianbei people to the court, and also asked the court for help. At the same time, he brought 5000 soldiers to Daijun to support Liu Bei. He believed that Daijun was the most dangerous place!After all, they faced Helian directly, and there were still 10 field soldiers in Daijun. If Helian rushed in and incited these field soldiers to rebel, the whole Youzhou would suffer.

"Did Helian attack?" Liu Yu immediately asked after he came to Dai County to find Liu Bei.

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Not yet!"

Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, swayed off his horse and said, "Do you know what happened to the Xianbei people? When did this kid Helian have such a high reputation that he could command hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people? Resurrected."

Liu Yu has also been an official in Youzhou for several years. He has experienced the Xianbei people under the rule of Tanshihuai. The big man's situation will be even more dangerous.And He Lian, the son of Tan Shihuai, is greedy for money, lustful, mean and mean, and the tribes of Xianbei people don't accept him as a sweat at all. That's why Liu Yu was surprised.

Liu Bei thought for a while and said: "The specific situation is not clear, but Helian probably wants to attack Mayi's Lei Gong Department!
Since Lei Gong came to Mayi, he not only reclaimed more than 300 million mu of land, but also opened workshops, earning a lot of money. It is said that there are millions of cattle and sheep in Lei Gong's department. Mayi has become the largest land outside the Great Wall. The bustling city is now, only such a rich place can attract so many Xianbei people! "

Hearing this, Liu Yu sighed and said, "This Lei Gong is indeed a talented person, but it's a pity that he went astray."

Liu Yu has been an official in Youzhou for several years, but he can only try his best to maintain the situation in Youzhou, while Lei Gong has only been in Mayi for a year, but he can make the barren city of Mayi a pearl in the north. Lei Gongzhi is a hundred times better than him. It's a pity that such a talent cannot be used by a big man!
After sighing, he continued: "However, we can't be careless. If He Lianzhen attacks Daijun, are you sure to prevent the attack of these hundreds of thousands of cavalry?"

Liu Bei said: "There are 10 troops stationed in Shanggu, Dai County. As long as they are armed and stationed in Gaoliu, Macheng, and Ning County, as long as each county has 1 horses, it is impossible for the Xianbei to fight even if they run out. Entering Youzhou."

Liu Yu smiled wryly and said: "Even the entire arsenal in Youzhou can't afford 10 people's equipment. I brought 2 people's weapons and equipment this time, and I'll give them all to you. I'll figure out what to do next, but You also need to allocate 4 field soldiers to support Yuyang County and Youbeiping County! It is a blessing in disguise, if there is no such group of field soldiers, the entire Youzhou will have no soldiers to use!"

Youzhou naturally has military strength, with as many as 3 to 4 people, but the entire Youzhou has a defense line of 4000-5000 miles. The mobile force is 5000 in the hands of Liu Yu, plus 3000 in the hands of Gongsun Zan.

Among them, the 5000 infantry in Liu Yu's hands supported the entire counties and counties in the west of Youzhou, while Baima Yicong supported the entire four counties in Liaodong. Half of North Korea, 5000 miles from east to west.Without this distribution, we can't take care of them at all.

At the beginning, Liu Yu wanted to garrison 10 soldiers in Youzhou, but was opposed by the entire Youzhou, from the prefect Cao officials, powerful gentry, down to ordinary people, and Hu people and herdsmen.

This is simply absurd. The 3-4 frontier troops supported by Youzhou’s finances are about to go bankrupt. Every year, the imperial court supports Youzhou with 2-3 million yuan in food and salaries. Wan Huangjin thieves, even if their treatment is not the same as that of the Han army, it is impossible to support Youzhou's financial situation.

Not to mention that the entire Youzhou has a population of only one million. Now that one-tenth of the population is squeezed in at once, the food for these soldiers in the fields will become a big problem. There is no way to solve this. The officials in the entire Youzhou think that their The governor is so overjoyed, he can't tell the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth.

The prefects were worried that these Yellow Turban thieves would rebel again and affect their official careers. The powerful were worried that their land would be invaded by reclamation. The rebellion made Youzhou become as war-torn as Jizhou. It can be said that if Fu Bian hadn't spent a lot of money and food to support it, Youzhou's reclamation could not go on at all.

But this large-scale invasion of the Xianbei people immediately reminded the prefects of Youzhou that the 10 garrison soldiers in Liu Bei's hands were simply the life-saving straw of these prefects. These garrison soldiers were all the first request for help.

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Naturally, the lower officials are willing. Only when these frontier counties are guarded, the Xianbei people will not be able to enter Youzhou, so what the lower officials do is meaningful."
