When Chu Yun returned to Handan City, he hadn't come back to his senses, he reached out and touched the divine stone on his chest as if he were in a dream. Although he didn't take the Divine Stone, just by sticking it to his chest, Chu Yun could feel the majestic aura contained in it from the Divine Stone, and the total amount of this spiritual power far exceeded Chu Yun's estimate. Chu Yun had spent decades cultivating to the ninth layer of the ground level, and it was estimated that it was not as strong as the spiritual power contained in this divine stone. You must know that Chu Yun's meridians and dantian have been expanded for various reasons, and the total amount of internal force is not even worse than that of ordinary Heaven Rank martial artists.

The piece of divine stone that Chu Yun got from Gongshi Leopard, Chu Yun studied it for a long time, Chu Yun felt that the spiritual power in that divine stone was not half of this one, and he didn't know why there was such a big difference between the same divine stone.

The middle-aged man didn't know who it was, after he threw the divine stone to himself, he grabbed Shi Hu and left quickly, his light skills were not something that Chu Yun could stop at all, even if Chu Yun still had thousands of cavalry, he couldn't stop it. Everyone could see that that person could take Shi Hu away without having to trade with him, but he made such a strange decision, Chu Yun really couldn't understand it.

That man only took Shi Hu himself, and the remaining hundreds of cavalry of the Qiang tribe were all wiped out by the Iron Blood Army, and Shi Hu's defeat completely exposed Wei County to the fangs of the Iron Blood Army.

In the spring of 314 A.D., in the second year of Jianxing in the Western Jin Dynasty, in the fourth year of Cheng Yuheng, in the fourth year of Zhao Jiaping, the deputy governor of the prefecture and the county guard of Shangdang County, Chuyun, and even the Zhaoguo County, Guangping County, and Wei County in Yizhou were destroyed, and hundreds of thousands of people were plundered, countless food and property, and tens of thousands of horses, and the entire southwest of Yizhou almost became a ghost.

Yecheng defender Shi Hu was seriously injured, Wu'an defender Hu Yanmo was captured, the general Peach Leopard was defeated and retreated, the brave general Guo Quan was captured first, and then fled back, the Shi Le army lost more than 20,000 troops, including more than 3,000 people from his own tribe, which was the largest loss since Shi Le started the army.

Among them, Yecheng, the most valued by Shi Le, was moved by Chu Yun, and this one of the eight ancient capitals of China, which later served as the capital of Zhao, Qianyan, Eastern Wei and Northern Qi, was burned to the ground. In addition, the Iron Blood Army also emptied all the more than a dozen county towns it occupied, and the hundreds of miles bordering Shangdang County became a no-man's land.

Chu Yun actually didn't want to do this, after all, these cities were built with a huge amount of manpower, but to leave Shi Le was to make trouble for himself, Shi Le could completely move the population to fill these areas again, Chu Yun needed time, so he could only burn them. Shangdang County is just a toddler compared to Shi Le, Chu Yun and Shi Le can't afford it, don't look at Chu Yun now there is no shortage of people, horses, food and grass, but his territory is only in one county, and the war potential is very limited, once Shi Le slows down the pace, then the only thing waiting for the Iron Blood Army is destruction.

When all the Chu Yun army returned to Shangdang County, it was already July, and the Iron Blood Army set out from March, which took four months, and the continuous battles and population migration almost exhausted the Iron Blood Army physically and mentally.

If it weren't for the luck of the Iron Army, they would definitely have to face the storm of the Shi Le Army, and it would not be easy to achieve their goal, but Wang Jun's remnants helped the Iron Blood Army, but Shi Le's energy was restrained by Youzhou, and even Shi Le himself almost died in Youzhou.

After Shi Le defeated Wang Jun, he thought that everything was fine, and when he received the report that the Iron Blood Army was attacking Youzhou, he immediately sent 30,000 troops to support, and after he simply appointed the governors of each county, he prepared to return. If the Shile army returns at this time, then the Iron Blood Army will definitely face great pressure.

But things have changed, when he persuaded Wang Jun to be careful of Shile's Youzhou Governor Sun Wei saw Shile's army return south, and Shile only had a few thousand people around him to protect, so he was ready to avenge Wang Jun, he ambushed Shile on the way to return south, and the Shile army was defeated by surprise, except for a few people, Shile's army was almost completely wiped out, which is also because he first sent the army back to rescue Yizhou, and left a large part of the army in Youzhou, and almost all the people he brought were the new army that had just returned to Shun, so it was defeated.

After Shi Le was defeated, the army that had been gone for nearly half a month rushed to the rescue, and the army returned in a hurry, which made Shi Le unexpected, but it had taken nearly a month to come and go, and Shi Le could only deal with Youzhou Sun Wei first, after all, he didn't want to let the Youzhou that he had just beaten down be eroded, plus Xiangguo City was impregnable, and he thought that Shi Hu was also safe in Yecheng. So he personally led the army to pursue Sun Wei, Sun Wei was defeated by thousands of people, Sun Wei was nowhere to be found, and this back and forth gave the iron-blooded army precious time.

However, although the iron-blooded army has achieved great results, it has also delayed the great plan of the imperial court, and the plan formulated by the imperial court to march on the third route in May Chu Yun has simply ignored it, at that time he was transferring the people, how could he have time to take care of the affairs of the imperial court.

Therefore, although Liu Kun has repeatedly issued articles, each time more and more severe, Chu Yun can only ignore it, which casts a shadow on the relationship between Liu Kun and Chu Yun, and also makes the relationship between Chu Yun and the imperial court crack.

Facts have proved that Chu Yun's original analysis was correct, the imperial court's plan was very good and grandiose, but it could not be realized at all.

Liu Kun commanded Tuoba Xianbei, an ally and Chu Yun, Chu Yun needless to say, there was no time to implement the plan of the imperial court, and Tuoba Xianbei also had problems, after Shi Le occupied Youzhou, Tuoba Xianbei's more than 10,000 miscellaneous beards, ready to abandon the Xianbei people to join Shile, but the plan was discovered before it was implemented, Tuoba Xianbei Lu was furious and sent troops to exterminate them, and put them all to death, so Tuoba Xianbei was internally unstable, and he did not dare to go on an expedition at all, and Liu Kun's two most important allies did not participate, so only Liu Kun was left, he was powerless, and the army was completely out of play。

And Sima Rui in the south was also contained, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the Shu people Du Tao's uprising became more and more noisy in the south, especially this year, the rebel army almost swelled, completely dragging the hands and feet of Sima Rui, the king of Langya, so that he had a name. In the name of the turmoil in the south, he completely rejected the will of the imperial court.

In fact, this wave of displaced people has been making trouble since the fourth year of Yongjia, but they are all small fights and not a climate. They are all Bashu refugees, the number of about tens of thousands, in order to avoid the war, exiled to Jing, Hunan region, when the Bashu region was occupied by the Li family of Chengguo, they were unwilling to submit to the Hulu, so they fled, from this point of view this group of people is still a righteous people, Chengguo Li family is a Qiang people.

But their righteous deeds were not recognized by the imperial court, and in desperation, they could only make chaos in order to survive, and became rogues from homeless people, but when they showed sincerity, someone finally took a fancy to them, and soon they were recruited by Xiangzhou Thorn Shi Xun. It was already peaceful. But Xiangzhou Assassin Shi Xunwan suddenly received an order from Sima Rui, the king of Langya, to let him punish the displaced people, Xiangzhou Assassin Shi Xunwan was very unhappy, because this group of people has become his people, and many people have been absorbed into his own army, which has greatly increased his strength, how could he do such a stupid thing.

But it happened unexpectedly, such a confidential news was known to the homeless, and everyone who was spread knew that Xun Wei, the assassin of Xiangzhou, had not had time to make any moves, and the displaced people whose lives were threatened rebelled decisively, and they didn't even explain the plan to Xun Wei. They jointly promoted the Shu people Du Tao as the master, this Du Tao was the commander of Liling County at that time, he often showed a sympathetic posture for the homeless, and won the favor of the homeless, so after the homeless people were ready to rebel, he became the leader. Du Tao was originally ambitious, the two sides hit it off, he called himself Liang, Yi Erzhou Mu, led the history of Xiangzhou Thorn, led the crowd to capture Changsha, and captured Xun Wang. Then conquered Lingling and Guiyang all the way, and attacked Wuchang and Chuyang in the east, occupied Yuzhang, and quickly expanded.

In fact, people with a discerning eye can see that there is a conspiracy here, how can a plan to assassinate history be publicized by everyone, and Sima Rui, the king of Langya, has not actively responded until the chaotic people are so strong that they occupy several counties. Everyone knew that the chaos was so big this time because of the support of Sima Rui, the king of Langya, and the families behind him. They just wanted to make chaos in the south so that they could cope with the orders of the imperial court. Sima Rui dispatched a large army to delay the time, and even if the court knew, there was nothing the court could do.

In the south, only General Fenwei and Yuzhou Assassin Shi Zu Ti sincerely responded to the call of the imperial court, and Zu Ti asked for war many times, but was rejected by Sima Rui on the grounds that the people in the south were in turmoil and had no time to take care of him. Zu Ti saw Sima Rui's true face clearly, angrily ran away and returned to the north of the Yangtze River, Zu Ti took his hundreds of steps to cross the Yangtze River north, at that time Zu Ti once made an oath of "middle stream attack": "Zu Ti is here, if you can't pacify the Central Plains and expel the enemy, then you will never return!"

Zu Ti recruited his own soldiers, and made his own knives and guns to respond to the call of the imperial court, but there were only more than 1,000 people, so he was not taken to heart by Sima Rui. Even his loyal court didn't take him seriously, and the south was completely bankrupt along the way.

And the Chang'an Imperial Court united with Liangzhou to assassinate Zhang Rail along the way, there was also an accident, Zhang Rail wanted to die or not, and he happened to die at the moment before the army, I don't know if it was a coincidence, anyway, he died, and Liangzhou couldn't send troops. His son Zhang Yu inherited the position of Zhang Liang Liangzhou Assassin Shi and Xiping Gong, because of filial piety, Zhang Yu could not send troops to the imperial court and could only grit his teeth and admit it. Even the imperial court had to appease, and the imperial court issued an edict confirming his control over Liangzhou, sealing him to hold the festival, supervising the military of Liangzhou, General Xizhonglang, Liangzhou Thorn History, Captain Qiang, and Xiping Gong.

The Chang'an Imperial Court did not have the support of Liangzhou and could not send troops, so the imperial court's hundreds of thousands of troops, the three-way march plan was completely bankrupt. The anger of the imperial court is understandable, but whether it is Liu Kun, Tuoba Xianbei, or Zhang Rail and Sima Rui, the imperial court cannot afford to offend, so they use Chu Yun as a punching bag, and the imperial court issued an order to reprimand Chu Yun for sending troops without permission, offending Shi Le, and changed Chu Yun's Wu'an Township to Wu'an Tinghou, which was demoted by one level.

Although Chu Yun didn't care, the Iron Blood Army was furious, they served the country, and they actually got this fate, so the loyalty to the imperial court within the Iron Blood Army dropped greatly, which was also what Chu Yun was happy to see.

Chu Yun repaired a letter to Liu Kun and sent it over, he counted Shi Le's ambitions, he felt that Liu Kun still had illusions about Shi Le, but now that Shi Le occupied Youzhou, his ambitions were obvious, Chu Yun didn't believe that Liu Kun couldn't see clearly, his relationship with the imperial court could not care, as long as Liu Kun helped, then the imperial court would not be like himself, he needed time to develop and digest the population. He didn't want to get into trouble with Liu Kun, so along with Chu Yun's letter, there were thousands of loads of grain and grass and most of the families he got from Yizhou, as well as thousands of young men and thousands of war horses.

Chu Yun was ready to support Liu Kun, not only because of Chu Yun's respect for Liu Kun, but also because after Shi Le occupied Youzhou, Liu Kun's territory was completely open to Shi Le.

Chu Yun funded Liu Kun to organize an army of more than 10,000 people, which involved Shi Le's energy, and it could be regarded as worrying about his own Shangdang County, as for whether Liu Kun would forgive himself, Chu Yun was not worried, he did not show a trace of antipathy, Liu Kun also saw the situation in the world clearly, and he would never push himself out.

Chu Yun recruited troops on a large scale, expanding the infantry brigade under his command to eleven, and the cavalry brigade expanded from 2,000 people in the previous brigade to 3,000 people now, because of Liu Bi's harvest, so Chu Yun was not worried about the decline in cavalry strength, and the Hu people captured by Liu Bi and the Han people recruited were proficient in horsemanship, and they were all very good soldiers with a little training.

Chu Yun expanded the Iron Cavalry to 6,000 people, and appointed Zuo Song, the deputy commander of the original Second Cavalry Brigade who was rescued from Handan City, as his deputy, and Guo Yong had another important use. Zuo Song was seriously injured, and the eyeballs of his left eye were all detained by the brutal Shi Hu, and his whole body was covered with scars. If it weren't for the short time he was captured, and Shi Hu's attention was not on him, Zuo Song would have been tortured to death a long time ago. Zuo Song was captured this time, which made his personality change greatly, he became full of hatred for the Hu people, but his loyalty to Chu Yun remained the same, Chu Yun was not afraid of his subordinates being cruel to the Hu people, as long as he was loyal, but Zuo Song needed to recuperate, and everything was still Guo Yong's agent.

Chu Yun expanded the cavalry into six brigades, each brigade has 3,000 people, which is an army of 18,000, plus 6,000 people of iron-blooded cavalry, Chu Yun has 24,000 cavalry under his command, these cavalry are all two horses, Chu Yun has no shortage of mounts, so that the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is greatly improved. Chu Yun was also ready to continue to expand, because they were next facing the Liangzhou army, which had many cavalry.

Chu Yun appointed Fang Dashan as the commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade, Guo Yong as the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade, Huang Cun as the commander of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade, Zhao Hu as the commander of the 4th Cavalry Brigade, Liu Hai as the commander of the 5th Cavalry Brigade, and Lu Zhong as the acting commander of the 6th Cavalry Brigade.

Among them, there is no change in the appointment of Fang Dashan and Huangcun, except for the increase in the number of subordinates, there is no other change, Guo Yong was promoted because of merit, after all, although he used to be the deputy of the Iron Cavalry, but only the position of deputy captain, now he has become the commander in charge. And Zhao Hu and Liu Hai were transferred from the commander of the infantry brigade to the cavalry brigade, and everyone knew that the cavalry was the main force of the iron-blooded army, so they were promoted. And Lu Zhong, the unlucky guy, has changed from the second-ranked cavalry brigade commander to the last acting brigade commander, who let him lose consecutive battles, although it is excusable, after all, Shi Hu is indeed very strong, but in the army, he needs to be rewarded for meritorious service, and if he has a fault, he will be punished.

Chu Yun ordered Zhou Bin to be transferred to the Cauldron Caliber of the Pukou Pass, which is a new checkpoint that Chu Yun arranged for Mo Han to build, which is very strong, Zhou Bin is not only the brigade commander of the First Infantry Brigade, but also the brigade commander of the Ninth Infantry Brigade, in addition to Chu Yun mobilizing Fang Ai of the Fourth Infantry Brigade to also go to the Pukou Pass, obeying Zhou Bin's command, Zhou Bin commanded an army of 15,000 to guard against Shi Le's retaliation, Chu Yun did not leave them a little cavalry, but the infantry defending the city was enough.

Zhou Bin's original defense in the direction of Tianjing Pass was handed over by Chu Yun to Zhao Hu, the brigade commander of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade, in addition to the Fourth Cavalry Brigade, Chu Yun mobilized 10,000 troops of the Second Infantry Brigade and the Seventh Infantry Brigade to defend Tianjing Pass.

And in the defense area of the original 2nd Infantry Brigade in the west of Shangdang County, Chu Yun appointed the 3rd Infantry Brigade Wang Dao to garrison it, which is not suitable for the attack of large troops at all, so as long as you are careful, his 5,000 people are enough, Wang Dao is originally a cautious person, so Chu Yun is very relieved.

As for the defense of Pingjin Valley, Chu Yun appointed Guo Yong, the brigade commander of the Second Cavalry Brigade, to serve as the brigade commander, and in addition to the cavalry of the headquarters, there were 10,000 people from the 5th Infantry Brigade and the 6th Infantry Brigade to help.

In addition, Chu Yun let the Seventh Brigade be stationed in the north of Shangdang County, the brigade commander Niu Gensheng stepped down, and Chu Yun appointed his brother-in-law Cui Zhen as the brigade commander, he mainly guarded against Liu Kun, although Chu Yun did not believe that Liu Kun would turn his face against him, but the heart of defense was indispensable. In addition, Chu Yun was also in order to prevent Shile from attacking and annexing the state, and they would go to support at any time.

The Eighth Infantry Brigade went to Lishicheng to garrison, and the brigade commander was Zhang Song, the deputy brigade commander of the original First Infantry Brigade, and also an old subordinate who followed Chu Yun. The 10th Infantry Brigade continued to be served by Niu Gensheng, and the 11th Infantry Brigade was garrisoned by Mao Qing in Changzicheng, and they were considered reserve troops, ready to support all fronts at any time.

Chu Yun of the eldest son city left Guo Shuzi to garrison, and the 5th Cavalry Brigade, the 10th Infantry Brigade, and the 11th Infantry Brigade were stationed in the Eldest Son City, which could support various theaters at any time. Chu Yun divided Shangdang County into six war zones, Guo Shuzi in Changzi City, Zhou Bin in Pukou Pass, Guo Yong in Pingjingu, Zhao Hu in Tianjing Pass, Cui Zhen in Nie County in the north of Shangdang County, and Wang Dao in the west of Shangdang County.

Chu Yun personally led the 20,000 troops of the Iron Cavalry, the First Cavalry Brigade, the Third Cavalry Brigade, the Sixth Cavalry Brigade, and the Eighth Infantry Brigade to Xihe County, and now the population of Shangdang County is close to one million, Chu Yun must immediately go to Xihe County to sort out, and then transfer a part of the people, otherwise there will be big trouble, so he did not delay at all. Moreover, Chu Yun also planned to comb the grassland in the north of Xihe County, where there were too many Hu people, making Chu Yun not worried about the safety of Xihe County's back. The second was to build a defensive line along the Yellow River to guard against the Xiongnu army that might appear at any time. The third is for Chu Yun to see if he can take back the west side of Xihe County occupied by Liangzhou, and try the combat effectiveness of the Liangzhou army by the way. So he really can't go there himself.

Chu Yun lived in the eldest son city for a few days, and took half a day to accompany Su Jin, now Su Jin is not so repulsive to himself, and complains that he doesn't come to accompany her, which makes her very bored, which makes Chu Yun very happy, but Chu Yun didn't strike while the iron was hot, and as for his woman Cui Ning, he didn't touch it, he didn't have time at all.

Chu Yun ordered Wang Lian and Mo Han to stay behind, and the army was handed over to Commander-in-Chief Guo Shuzi, and he set off immediately with Zhang Tong, Fan Gao, Chu Chenglin, and a few Wenchen and an army of 20,000.

In Xiangguo City, Shi Le had just sent away the middle-aged man who had rescued his nephew Shi Hu, and came to Shi Hu's bed with an iron face. Looking at his nephew, who was seriously injured and lost Shenshi, Shi Hu almost broke his teeth, not only because of Shi Hu's matter, but also because of the middle-aged man's attitude towards him. In the face of his own flattery, the man directly chose to ignore it, and did not even say a word to him, this contemptuous attitude caused Shiler's self-esteem to be hurt by ten thousand points.

"Uncle, he is the one who gave my divine stone to the enemy who injured me, you want to avenge me. After Shi Hu finished speaking, Shi Le was even more angry.

"Ah Hu, don't worry, your uncle will avenge you. You take good care of Ah Hu, if there is a little accident, you will all die. Someone came to inform me that all the officials and generals above the four grades came to my mansion. And the state army, I want you not to die well. Schle's sleeves flicked and walked out. As he became more and more successful, Shile was rarely angry, but now that he had appeared in his original form, he was clearly angry.
