@illyri
I agree with most of your points however,
You mention that many died so couldn't pass on their y dna but others were luckier without maybe not doing much. This is not relevant because those who died cannot spread their offspring, culture and language to the new land because as you know, they died.
Anyway, it tends to be commanders who do not die so like I said the invaders who died were not quite as important. Not to mention that you win a war/region with your survivors as those who have died cannot take your people forward even though they would have been very important during the invasion period. It is those that survived that will continue to have kids and pass on the culture/language to the region.
Not all contact between 2 tribes/groups involved conflict, sometimes there was a mutual friendlier agreement - a coming together and of course immigration is also a thing especially in big empires across massive lands. The locals may be unwelcoming to the idea but sometimes they had to accept it. The amount of kids immigrants had usually depended on how they were received by locals. Over time this would have become less of an issue as they learned the language and adapted to the culture.
And yes Bulgaria has plenty of south Slavic input and they speak a south Slavic language.
