Originally, Yang Lin planned to use the winter season after harvest to focus all his forces to solve the Barbarian's problem. However, the robbers and killers from the Hu and Barbarian had disrupted Yang Lin's overall plan. Due to the Youzhou's special location and the fact that the long border was filled with jackals, Yang Lin had no choice but to split up and defend.
Just as Yang Lin was feeling extremely anxious, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had sent a message from the Liaodong that the envoys from the helper would pass through the Liaodong and head to the imperial government to seek for reinforcements. In the next few days, they would head north to Guangyang City.
Regarding this information, Yang Lin did not receive much attention. Previously, he had already heard Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang's introductions. The helper was still more than a thousand kilometers away from the Xuantu County. The current Youzhou had already caused him to expend all his scheming, so how could he have the mind to bother about the helper that was far away in the horizon?
”Since they are willing to seek help from the imperial government, we will let them go.”
Yang Lin threw the information aside and said to himself. He was not like Gongsun Zan, who liked to intercept messengers of the Barbarian and Hu Ren. Right now, the imperial government could not spare any time and energy to take care of the Hu people and the Barbarian, it would be useless for them to go.
In the blink of an eye, it was the second year's third month. From the information that came from the Luoyang, he found out that Zhao Ci, a soldier from River County had gathered a large group of soldiers to rebel and kill taiwai Qin Jie. Looking at this information, Yang Lin actually felt a little sad. After all, he and Nanyang County Qin Jie had attacked the xanthopanax together in the Nanyang.
The second message that came back from the Luoyang was that the envoys from the helper had come to the Luoyang. Although they were received by the Hanling Emperor, they were powerless against their pleas for help. Other than verbal and moral support, they received nothing and had no choice but to leave the Luoyang.
Half a month later, a soldier suddenly reported to Yang Lin that he had not seen the envoy from the helper. It turned out that when the group of helper s were on their way back, they had passed by Youzhou and wanted to meet him.
”Let him wait. We'll see when we have time.”
It was already spring and the Urushion s had gone to graze their cattle. There were less robberies at the borders and the security situation of the Youzhou had improved greatly. Now that the helper had come to request an audience, Yang Lin really wanted to hear what had happened to them. Maybe they would need to use the helper in the future.
Yang Lin didn't really know much about the helper, he just had heard Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang talk about the horses in the helper. He immediately ordered for them to search for information on the helper. After a day of work with the scribe, he finally understood the current situation of the helper.
The helper was a people mainly based on agriculture and animal husbandry in the north of the big sized man. It was located in the center of the Songhua River Basin and was located more than a thousand miles to the north of the Xuantu County. A population of over six hundred thousand people within a circumference of two thousand Li.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the helper established the Empire of Yu and submitted to the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once gave Fu Yu the seal, will the Fu Yu country under the jurisdiction of the Xuantu County, year after year ordered tribute. The helper's agriculture and animal husbandry were more developed, with abundant grains and plenty of surplus food.
As the Han Dynasty weakened, the fresh inferior and the Gaoguellian gradually became stronger and continuously devoured the Xuantu County, causing them to continuously move north. The Xuantu County also became smaller and smaller, to the point where the fresh inferior and the Gaoguellian were separated the Xuantu County and the helper from each other. Afterwards, the Fuyu Kingdom submitted to the Gaoguellian and gradually cut off all communication with it.
After reading through the information on the helper, Yang Lin became interested in this race. Mainly farmers, livestock, and a gentle personality, similar to the Han Chinese. They were at the north side of fresh inferior, Gaoguellian. If they could get help from this nation, it would be extremely beneficial for their conquest of fresh inferior and Gaoguellian in the future.
Three days later, Yang Lin received Fu Yu Nation's envoy in the Schmidt's house. Accompanying Yang Lin were a few strategists and generals.
According to the helper's introduction, the Imperial Emissaries were the Ninth Prince s of Fuyu Country. A twenty year old or so Young people, was quite handsome, and was indeed not like the Urushion or the other nomadic peoples who were rough and boorish, very much like Central Plains scholars. They even spoke in fluent Chinese, and had a Chinese name, Gao Jie. After the ceremony, Prince Fuyu got to the point:
”Lord General, I have helped the remaining nations serve the Darky Court for generations. It was just that due to the obstruction of the fresh inferior and the higher-ups, the Empire of Yu had not paid tribute to them for many years. Now, Gaoguellian has attacked Fu Yu consecutively, attempting to destroy my Fu Yu Country. That's why Father sent me to wait for Darky Court to ask for help. Unexpectedly, the man was in a state of disarray and was unable to rescue him. As we were passing by the Youzhou, we saw that the Youzhou was strong and strong, and had a peaceful life for the people, so we wanted to ask the Lord General to help us out. If the Lord General sends troops to save Fu Yu, then Fu Yu is willing to submit to the Lord General. ”
Yang Lin was not moved by their actions. These weak little nations had always been in the middle of a cycle of submission and rebellion, so Yang Lin, who was familiar with history, would definitely not be puzzled by them. He smiled faintly and continued to ask, ”What exactly is going on with your Fountain of Nations? How's the battle with fresh inferior and Gaoguellian? ”
