Cao Cao was reviewing the recitals sent below in the Qianqing Palace, and after reading a recital in his hand, he asked Xun You, who was standing in His Highness, with some surprise: "Zitai said in his letter that there are barbarians invading the border!" What's going on? The Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Wuhuan have all surrendered, is there any other powerful role in the wilderness further north? ”

Xun You said: "Your Majesty may not know, in fact, there are more barbarian barbarians in the north of the prairie, they are different from the nomadic peoples of Xianbei, Xiongnu, and Wuhuan, although they are also nomalist, but more often they hunt in the snowy mountains!" It's more like the early Wuhuan people! ”

"That's the Safari Tribal, right?"

Xun You nodded and continued: "Although these nomadic tribes are fierce, they are just a plate of scattered sand, and the population is not more than that, but it is divided into countless large and small tribes! In the past, it often invaded the prairies of the north! ”

After a pause, Xun You frowned and said, "But the situation seems to be a little different recently!" ”

Cao Cao couldn't help but have a sense of foreboding and asked, "What's the difference?" ”

"The scale of these incursions is much larger than before, and there are more than a thousand people, and their equipment is not inferior to the previous Xianbei army!" There was a bit of melancholy in Xun You's tone.

Cao Cao frowned and asked, "What does Gongda mean that they may be integrating?" ”

Xun You nodded. "It may even be integrated!

Cao Cao's brows shrank suddenly, and he walked to the sand table on the side of the hall. Cao Cao looked along the Beihai Sea and asked, "Where did the other party mainly enter the grassland from?" ”

The so-called North Sea. In fact, it is now Lake Baikal in Russia near Mongolia, and the northern border of the Great Wei Empire is along Lake Baikal, and the entire northern steppe region is no less than the Central Plains, but the population in such a large area is less than two million.

Although Cao Cao had implemented many policies to encourage people from the interior to migrate to the grasslands, very few Han Chinese voluntarily moved to the grasslands every year, and at least 60 percent of the 300,000 Han Chinese living in the grassland cities were sent by Cao Cao.

This made Cao Cao often sigh that the Han people's nostalgia for their homeland was only the most serious among all the ethnic groups of mankind, and perhaps it was not because of this that the Han Empire could not effectively control the areas far away from the Central Plains when it was at its most glorious. However, Cao Cao found that there was one group of people who seemed to be exceptional, and they were merchants.

Xun You pointed to the western section of the Great Lake and said, "The barbarians mainly enter the prairie from this line, but they will occasionally appear on the eastern front. ”

Cao Cao looked at the terrain on the sand table, and his gaze slowly moved north. Suddenly, his brows furrowed, and he softly spit out two words, "Russia!" But then he shook his head self-deprecatingly and muttered, "This can't be!

In fact, it is not possible. Originally, according to history, the nomadic peoples in the north would be wiped out by the fierce nomads on the grassland in the next historical time. Either they move further north or west, or they blend in with the nomads and become small tribes, but they can't be integrated. After all, their civilization process is even more backward than Xianbei!

However, all this completely changed after the Han people entered the grassland, not to mention the further spread of Han culture after entering the grassland. The fleeing Xiongnu, Xianbei, Wuhuan and even Goguryeo people all brought more advanced civilizations to those nomadic peoples, and such civilizations were met with Han civilization. Obviously, it's not as simple as one plus one equals two!

Of course, compared with the change of the social system, the change of weapons is undoubtedly the most rapid, which is also a norm in ancient history, compared with civilized peoples, more primitive and barbaric peoples, often able to master more advanced blades.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong?" Xun You asked.

Cao Cao shook his head, probably a little understanding in his heart, and thought: "It seems that we have been a little negligent in the north!" ”

"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much! Although these barbarians are fierce, they are limited in number after all, and they should not pose any threat to the northern grasslands! Xun You analyzed.

Cao Cao disagreed with this point of view, and frowned: "Any threat is developed from a small one!" We can't afford to take any small threat lightly! ”

Turning his head to Jia Xu on the side, he said: "Immediately order Zitai to send capable personnel to the northern wilderness to feel the situation, be sure to return before winter, and in addition, let Jinyi Wei transfer a group of capable personnel to the northern capital to protect the mansion!" ”

"Weichen takes the order!"

While Cao Cao and his sisters were discussing a series of harassments in the northern steppes during this period, a Germanic barbarian tribe in the northeast of the Roman Empire was suddenly attacked by 200,000 cavalry from the northeast.

This sudden army of 200,000 broke through the defenses of many Germanic tribes in one fell swoop, and marched under what would become Poland three days later.

The barbarian chieftains of Poland did not dare to confront him, and surrendered to him on the same day, but then they were followed by heinous atrocities, in which men were dragged out of the street like cattle and cut in two, and women, young and old, were brutally murdered by these beast-like soldiers, and the cries and screams echoed over them, and the glorious sun seemed to have turned blood-red.

Soon after, the upper echelons of the Roman Empire received urgent reports about the matter.

The Senate and the Roman Emperor, who were vying for power, were somewhat unmistakable by this sudden news, for they had the impression that there should be no noteworthy forces in the north-east from the Great Plain of Kiev to Poland, and that the barbarians, though very savage and ferocious, were nothing more than a plate of scattered sand.

In the eyes of the Romans, the Great Plain of Kiev was a completely forgotten wilderness, there was no oil or water, and it was very cold for half of the year, so people from Rome and its surrounding countries basically did not go there, even the most adventurous merchants had no interest in it, and the barbarian tribes everywhere made the people of Rome and its surrounding countries almost ignorant of everything that was born on the Great Plain of Kiev, and the Great Plain of Kiev was like a forgotten closed place.

However, it was the rapid fall of such ferocious barbarian tribes that made the upper echelons of Rome feel a huge shock! (To be continued.) )
