Han Yi stared at Le Peng with an unhappy face and asked, "What's so important, you have to deal with it immediately?" ”

Le Peng arched his hand in panic and said: "The county gentleman, it's not that his subordinates don't know what to do and scratch the county monarch to rest, but his subordinates do have something important." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Han Yi was full of displeasure and was about to drink Le Peng. Gongsun Ying pulled Han Yi on the side, and persuaded with a smile: "Husband, since you are the king of a hundred miles in Qianping County, you have a lot of political affairs every day, which is really normal. It doesn't matter to you sooner or later, but for others, it's an urgent matter. Husband, it's important to deal with political affairs first. ”

Han Yi sat down on the seat in the courtyard unhappily and asked, "What is the matter, come quickly." ”

Le Peng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "Yu county gentleman, a few days ago, there was a horse merchant from Hanoi, who said that he had just returned from Saibei, and after paying the business tax in the county, he said that he had something important to look for the county gentleman. The subordinates saw that he was just a businessman, and the county monarch had not yet returned, so his subordinates did not pay attention to him. After the county monarch returned, his subordinates saw that it was still early, so they mentioned it for him, and the county monarch did not want to see him, and his subordinates were ready to drive this person away. I didn't want this person, but I took out a letter from Ding Yuan, the commander of Wumeng who was stationed in Tun Hanoi, saying that there was a change in the Xianbei people outside the Saiwai to remind the county monarch that it was a subordinate ......"

Han Yi frowned when he heard this, and rubbed his eyebrows with his hands and thought about it. Is it a subordinate of Ding Yuan, the commander of Wu Mengdu stationed in Tun Hanoi? It is very strange not to go to the Xiongnu to buy horses, but to go to the Xianbei to buy horses in the north. It is not only the Xianbei people who have moved, but also close to Yuyang, it must be the Xianbei people in the east! This is the old enemy of Yehei County. Could it be that they deliberately invaded Yuyang?

Han Yi got up and said, "Quickly bring this person to the county office, and call Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Che La, and Wang Yang to come over." After saying that, after apologizing to Gongsun Ying, she went straight to the county hall.

Not long after, Yan Liangwen and the four of them arrived, and Han Yi asked them to sit down next to them and wait for the horse merchant together. After a while, Lepeng led a middle-aged man under forty years old into the government. Han Yiguan has a very beautiful appearance, a long beard and big eyes, and he has the demeanor of a scholar in every gesture, unlike a horse merchant, but like a cold man who reads poetry and books.

The horse merchant bowed deeply: "The villain Ma Yi has seen the Jun of Qianping County? ”

Han Yi knocked on the table and asked suspiciously, "Surnamed Ma, are you Ding Duwei's subordinate?" ”

Ma Yi said with a smile: "No, Yi is an old friend of Ding Duwei, and he has been selling horses in Xianbei in the north for ten years. Because he was afraid of being bullied by the official soldiers on the road, he asked Ding Duwei for a little faith, and wanted to fake the tiger Will. ”

Han Yi nodded and asked, "You told my subordinates that there was an abnormality in the Xianbei people outside the Saiwai?" I don't know if it's true or not? ”

Ma Yi smiled: "This is naturally true, how dare the villain talk about humble things." ”

Han Yi got up and bowed: "Thank you, Mr. for coming to sue, Han Yi is here to pay tribute to Mr. Xie for the court." I don't know which Xianbei person it is? How many people are there? How many warriors can be gathered? Where will it go? How long will it take to arrive in Handi, please ask Mr. to tell me carefully. ”

Ma Yi thought about it carefully before he replied: "The villain went out of the north before March, when the Xianbei people had just passed the winter and were short of supplies. As soon as I arrived in the eastern Xianbei region, I saw that the eastern Xianbei tribes were not prepared enough due to the heavy snow last year, and many cattle, sheep and horses died. After the beginning of spring, in order to reduce losses, various departments wantonly encroached on the pastures of other departments, so they fought each other one after another. By this time, the eastern Xianbei tribes had been fighting for three months, and the victory was clear, and the war would stop. ”

Ma Yi paused and said: "The loser of the Xianbei people is bound to have a hard time after compensating most of the winner's property. In addition, the wheat in my Han land is ripe, Xiliang is in rebellion, and the court has no flawless consideration for the defense of the northeast for a while, which is the time when the Xianbei people enter the army. There were more than a dozen defeated eastern Xianbei people, each of whom had a number of thousands, and the number of warriors who could fight would be between 70,000 and 80,000. From the east, Liaoxi County, Youbeiping County, Yuyang County, Shanggu County, and Dai County will all be the direction of its entry. I just don't know how many people will come to Yuyang. The time of entry is within half a month. ”

Han Yi was secretly shocked: Seventy or eighty thousand Xianbei cavalry, this is not a small number, on average, each county will bear 20,000 Xianbei cavalry. However, Yuyang County is the richest county in Youzhou except Zhuo County, which is not much worse than the four counties of Liaoxi, Youbeiping, Shanggu and Dai County combined, and must be the main direction of Xianbei people's entry into the Kou. And Qianping is the nearest county in Yuyang County, which is close to Xianbei County, and this year has just had a bumper harvest, and there will be a harvest of 900,000 stones......

Han Yi had a headache when he thought about it. Woe is the place on which blessing depends; Blessings lurk in disguise. The ancients did not deceive me.

It is expected that at least 40,000 Xianbei cavalry will attack, and no matter how bold Han Yi is, it will be a chill. Although there are 6,000 warriors in Qianping County, it depends on who is fighting, if it is a Xianbei person, Han Yi only dares to fight four or five thousand horsemen. If you are ten times your own, you will ask for help.

Yuyang County has nine counties, 70,000 households, each county has soldiers, the total number is 4,000 people, of which the county guard has 1,000 soldiers. Due to the danger, the number of soldiers in Qianping County was the smallest, only more than 200. However, after Han Yi came, the whole county was trained in the whole county, but its combat power was the strongest.

In less than half a month, other counties just want to temporarily recruit volunteers, but I am afraid that it is far inferior to Qianping. It seems that asking for help is not a good way, and the only way to do it is to defend the danger. It's just that if the Xianbei people break through from other places, it will be a troublesome thing. It is necessary to harvest the wheat as soon as possible, store it, and implement the method of clearing the wilderness.

After thinking about it, Han Yi frowned and asked, "The main envoy is Lord Xianbei?" How many fighters does it have? ”

Ma Yi spread his hands and said: "There is no master, this change is just the unanimous agreement of the loser." ”

Han Yi was surprised and asked, "There is no main messenger?" Isn't there a unified king in Eastern Xianbei? ”

Che La coughed lightly and said: "Tanshi Huai has just unified the Xianbei tribes, although the eastern, western, and central Xianbei departments have been set up, and the three departments have not yet appeared to be under the unified management of the prestige left and right Xianwang, and the sandalstone Huai has died. His son and Lian Yong are incompetent, like fishing colors, and unfair, the Xianbei departments are gradually centrifugating, and they have already taken care of their own affairs in private. Although Xianbei has the name of three parts at this time, there is no co-owner to rely on, and it is like scattered sand. If my Han is strong at this time, and the 100,000 soldiers are out of the fortress, Xianbei can be wiped out in one fell swoop. It's a pity...... Alas. ”

Ma Yi nodded and said, "Yes, that's right, it turns out that the three Xianbei and Helian are the co-masters." Since last year, when the Lianju Department moved to the counties of the state and called itself the Xihe Xianbei Department, Xianbei has been completely ownerless. It's a shame......"

Han Yi was helpless, he wanted to attack the messenger of the Broken Lord, so that the Xianbei people did not dare to face up to Qianping County, and did not want Xianbei to have no owner, but they just agreed. However, in this way, the fighting spirit of the Xianbei people will not be tenacious. And each soldier is only about 3,000 horsemen, as long as they don't join forces, Qianping County should be worry-free, but pity the other counties.

Han Yi thanked Ma Yi and sent him away from the county office. After sending people to inform the counties and report to the county guards, they summoned all their subordinates to come and discuss. Everyone consulted and discussed, but there was no good law. It was originally a small county, and its own weapons were insufficient, so it could not exert its own combat power. It's okay to keep yourself, but if you want to support other counties, I'm afraid you won't be able to. In the end, it can only be prepared according to the strategy of clearing the wilderness as Han Yi thought.

Early in the morning of the second day, Han Yi sent everyone to various places to direct the wheat harvest. The matter is urgent and cannot be delayed. When the people of the county learned the news that Xianbei might invade, they were immediately panicked. After a few days, the wheat was completely ripe, and the collective action of the whole county to harvest the wheat began.

Fortunately, God has eyes, and after a month and a half of sunny and cloudless, all the 850,000 stone wheat in the county were harvested, dried and stored. Among them, the wheat belonging to Han Yi is as much as 500,000 stones. After taking out another 50,000 stones to pay the harvest money, because there was nowhere to store, all of them were transported to the foot of Yanshan Mountain, and many natural caves were found to store them. After everything was finished, a beacon fire was also lit on the Great Wall, and Wang Dong, the guard of Gubeikou, sent news that the strikers of the Xianbei people had come abroad.

Outside the Gubeikou Pass, there are about 2,000 Xianbei people. Han Yi stood on the wall of the pass and felt quite heavy when he saw the Xianbei people who were more powerful than the Wuhuan people. When I came to Biansai again, I thought about fighting with the Xianbei people. But just after the political army improved, there was an enemy ten times as large as himself, how could Han Yi not smile bitterly. Fortunately, they didn't come last year, otherwise Han Yi would have had to run away.

Han Yi looked at the Xianbei people who were showing off their might under the city, thought about something, and suddenly asked: "Che Lao, the elite of the Xianbei people in the east has been exhausted, what about the women and children in their old camp?" Did you come to the side plug too? ”

Che La shook his head and said, "No, their old camp is still in Xianbei, and only Xianbei soldiers are coming." Che La explained: "If before the unification of Xianbei by Tanshi Huai, the Han Dynasty was flourishing at that time, and the Xianbei people would only kill each other when they were affected, and they would not dare to plunder the Han land at all." Since the unification of Tanshi Huai, the Xianbei people suffered, they no longer kill each other, they will only fight but not break, in the spring and summer to divide the victory and defeat, the loser in the summer and autumn to the Han land to plunder. After the victor accepts the loser's property, he also has the responsibility to temporarily protect the loser's old camp women and children. Not really."
