Chapter 2934 3198 Xianbei Invasion?

Liu Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm down the disturbing thoughts in his heart. He looked at Lin Tianyao and slowly said:

"Are you sure that Gongsun Zan told you this news through an informant?"

"I'm sure, the informant produced Gongsun Zan's handwritten letter and seal. However, the informant has left Jixian now. I'm afraid, sir, you won't be able to find him if you want to find him."

Liu Yu immediately pushed all the evidence of Gongsun Zan's crimes that he had collected all night to the ground. Seeing Liu Yu like this, Lin Tianyao's heart skipped a beat and he said no. Liu Yu should know very well that there was an informant from Gongsun Zan in his mansion, so why was he still so angry? His own rhetoric seemed impeccable. Moreover, according to the agreement with Gongsun Yuan, the informant has left long ago.

"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing right away!? Do you know how big of a deal this is! This happened a few days ago, tell me quickly!"

This was the first time that Lin Tianyao had seen Liu Yu lose his composure like this. In his impression, he was a person who showed no emotion or anger, but now, he was so out of his mind because of the Xianbei people. Seeing Liu Yu like this, Lin Tianyao couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.

Could it be that I had underestimated this matter? Could it be that the Xianbei people did not just thresh grass and grain, but had another purpose? !

"Sir, I only found out late last night. I thought you had already rested, so I didn't disturb you. In addition, are you making a fuss out of a molehill? Bingzhou and Youzhou have strong soldiers and horses, and the Xianbei people have nothing to do with us except clearing grass and valleys. I’m afraid I won’t be able to do anything.”

No wonder Lin Tianyao is like this, because he is not familiar with this era. He never realized that the Xianbei people were coming for real this time. Dogmatism killed him.

"Master Supervisory Censor, I don't have time to argue with you about these things now. I can only tell you that the Xianbei people are not just here to harvest grass and grain this time! Gongsun Zan escaped, and I will not argue with him about these things for the time being. You immediately take people to the place where Gongsun Zan is stationed and ask Gongsun Zan to come to me immediately! Tell him, the Xianbei people are coming for real this time!"

With Liu Yu's intelligence, he naturally guessed that Gongsun Zan's original intention in releasing this news was to save himself. However, I have to thank this idiot, otherwise, I am afraid that when the Xianbei army gathers, I will still have no defense! In that case, Youzhou and Bingzhou might become Xianbei's horse ranches!

Lin Tianyao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he quickly realized the importance of the matter and walked out without saying a word. Liu Yu immediately started making arrangements.

First, send people to the Xianbei tribe to find out whether things are as Gongsun Zan said. Secondly, no matter what, this matter must be reported to the court. He, Liu Yu, was just the pastor of Youzhou, and if Xianbei wanted to invade, his target would definitely not be just Youzhou.

Youzhou was poor and miserable. Although it was prospering under its own governance, it was still not as prosperous as Bingzhou. Moreover, Youzhou has a small population and its folk customs are relatively tough. For the Xianbei tribe, conquering Youzhou has more strategic significance than practical significance.

But Bingzhou was different. First of all, the grassland terrain of Bingzhou was conducive to cavalry charges. Secondly, if Bingzhou was controlled, it would be equivalent to hanging a long sword directly on the Han Dynasty court. King Xianbei mobilized three Xianbei armies. If he said that annexing the state was not the goal, no one would believe it.

While he was analyzing the seriousness of the matter, he was trying his best to write down the situation in the memorial as clearly as possible. It wasn't until he felt dizzy and couldn't support his body that he stopped and glanced out the window.

Outside the window, I don’t know when the sky has darkened, accompanied by rolling thunder.

Thunder in winter is not a good sign. Liu Yu couldn't help but feel a layer of gloom in his heart.

In this turbulent time, where should the Han Dynasty go?

Lin Tianyao didn't know what Liu Yu was thinking about at this moment. At this moment, his heart was filled with unimaginable shock.

The Xianbei people actually plan to come for real? Could it be that Liu Yu made a mistake? ?

In The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, did the Xianbei people invade the Central Plains at the end of the Han Dynasty? Why don't I have any impression? !

Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao did have good relations with the grassland peoples, which led other princes to go to war with the grassland peoples when they conquered them. But Gongsun Zan defected to Goryeo, and Yuan Shao defected to the Wuhuan people. What does it have to do with the Xianbei people?

Emperor Wu of Wei, Cao Cao, did send troops to conquer the Xianbei people, but this was not what happened during the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty!

In fact, I don’t blame Lin Tianyao. It can only be said that he regarded the Romance of the Three Kingdoms as the official history of the Three Kingdoms.

In history, Xianbei repeatedly attacked the Eastern Han Dynasty, but in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, they were all ignored. Even Emperor Wu of Wei, Cao Cao, refused to spend more time on things like pacifying Xianbei, let alone other things about Xianbei.

It's no wonder that Lin Tianyao felt that the Xianbei people in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were very honest. In fact, it was completely opposite to what he imagined. During the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, the Xianbei people were not only dishonest, but also very active.

How active is it? Xianbei invaded the three states of Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou every year. Every time they invaded, thousands of Han people died. Although this was in another time and space, the development of history was slightly different. The Xianbei people did not invade as frequently as in that time and space, but it did not prevent them from always eyeing the Eastern Han Dynasty.

It took Lin Tianyao a long time to accept this reality.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is natural. When a powerful empire declines, it will inevitably attract the scrutiny of surrounding countries. In this way, wars and conflicts are inevitable. As for Lin Tianyao, he had never noticed that this terrible crisis was approaching. ....
