Chu Yun's men came one after another to report their results, this time the acting brigade commander of the 6th Cavalry Brigade Lu Zhong fought a beautiful turnaround battle, he and Chu Yun attacked the Xiongnu camp and achieved the biggest result. Lu Zhong was very excited, after all, there were only a few acting brigade commanders of the Iron Blood Army, except for himself, the rest of the acting brigade commanders were all newcomers, only he was an old man who had followed Chu Yun for so many years, he really had no face, he believed that this time his acting brigade commander would definitely be able to turn positive. And what made him happiest was that he had finally done something for his most respected governor this time.

The 600 guards of the 6th Cavalry Brigade and Chu Yun killed more than 5,000 Hun soldiers and captured more than 14,000 people, and the 6th Cavalry Brigade did not have much loss, only more than 100 people were killed and wounded, Chu Yun's guards died more because of the attack earlier, but there were only more than 200 people, I have to say that it is a miracle, the two of them combined are less than 4,000 people.

There are more kills and captures, and fewer casualties, which is also where Lu Zhong's confidence lies in feeling that he can finally turn positive. The military merits of the Predator Army are not only based on the destruction of the enemy and prisoners, but also on the loss of their own soldiers, after all, the Predator Army has the best aftermath measures of this era, these measures are guaranteed by a lot of money, and if there are fewer deaths, then fewer resources will be consumed accordingly. Chu Yun encouraged cherishing the soldiers, and also had this consideration. In ancient times, many generals did not treat their subordinates as people, and many times the so-called big victories were filled in by human lives, which Chu Yun didn't like very much.

As for the other people, they didn't have such good luck, needless to say, Fang Dashan ran for more than twenty miles, only grabbed the other party's little tail, killed hundreds of people, and killed and injured more than a hundred people himself. But when he returned, he picked up the leaks and captured hundreds of prisoners, and the rest had almost no gain.

And the Huangcun of the Third Brigade of the Cavalry fought with the Xiongnu Forbidden Army, and each side suffered thousands of casualties, but because they dragged this part of the forbidden army to the death, it also created conditions for the battle of the Xiongnu camp, which can be regarded as meritorious, this part of the Xiongnu Forbidden Army is not like the group of people faced by Fang Dashan, and the group of people fled directly. But the forbidden army faced by Huangcun was desperate to rescue the Hun camp, if Jin Ming hadn't returned and taken them immediately, they really wouldn't have been able to create a miracle.

As for Mao Yu, he dragged Jin Ming, the commander of the Xiongnu forbidden army, to buy time for Chu Yun and Lu Zhong, and then after the iron-blooded army basically won, in order to reduce losses, he deliberately let Jin Ming leave. This block is very precise and has a great achievement.

In addition to the soldiers killed and captured, the Iron Blood Army also captured a large number of war horses, as many as tens of thousands, which were also left by the descendants of Huyanyan, who were transformed into infantry. In addition, the Predator Army also obtained a large number of siege equipment, especially catapults and ballistas, almost completely inherited by the Predator, this thing is not something that can be made if you want to make it, it requires a large number of craftsmen, this time the Predator Army captured so much, and there will be a lot less trouble in the siege in the future.

However, although the Iron Blood Army was victorious, the Eighth Infantry Brigade was almost disabled, and there were still people in Zhongyang City who needed to be appeased, and there were many things that gave Chu Yun a headache. In particular, although the Huns were defeated along the way, the 20,000 Xiongnu forbidden troops were almost intact, and at least more than 15,000 people remained. I believe that the Huns are willing, they will definitely be able to raise more troops, this is not a joke, but with the Huns' character of finding a field immediately after suffering a loss, it is really possible for them to send more troops.

Chu Yun ordered the 4th Infantry Brigade stationed in Lishicheng to change the guard to Zhongyang City, and gathered the county soldiers from Lishicheng and Lin County together to form the 13th Infantry Brigade, with Fang Ai, the brigade commander of the 4th Infantry Brigade, concurrently serving as the brigade commander, and stationed in Zhongyang County together.

Then he was going to recruit troops in Xihe County, no matter how much Xihe County had a population of more than 100,000, plus he had just migrated from Shangdang County with a population of 100,000, it was not difficult to recruit 10,000 soldiers. Chu Yun was going to replenish these soldiers with the Eighth Advance Brigade, and then send them to Zhongyang City. Infantry is stationed in Zhongyang City, while Lishi City is mainly cavalry, so that it can be quickly supported. Through this battle, Chu Yun felt that the defense system of Xihe County that had been set before was correct. In addition, Chu Yun is also ready to put five thousand troops in Lin County, so that the triangular system is the most stable, but now Chu Yun needs time.

The situation in Shangdang County, Mo Han has already sent a letter to write clearly, although Chu Yun is worried about the safety of Shangdang County, but no matter how he looks at it now, Xihe County is the most dangerous. Chu Yun and Zhang Tong discussed many times, and they had already deduced the plan of the Huns, and the two roads that attacked Shangdang County were both partial divisions, because only Xihe County had 20,000 forbidden troops on this road, which was not too difficult to speculate.

Now that the main force of the Huns has failed, if the Huns do not stop in Shangdang County, then Xihe County will face a second attack. Unlike the seamless Shangdang County arranged by Chu Yun, the defense system of Xihe County has not yet been built, and it cannot leave at this time.

Chu Yun completely handed over Shangdang County to Mo Han and Guo Xuanzi, and he could only trust them. With tens of thousands of troops in Shangdang County, Chu Yun didn't believe that it could be easily attacked.

However, the recruitment situation in Xihe County is not very good, after all, there are too few Han people, and many Hu people are interested in the high salary of the Iron Blood Army, but Chu Yun wants to deliberately control the number of Hu people in the army. Of course, the most important county of Xihe is fertile land, and most of the people can domesticate livestock, and they live relatively well-off, so no one likes to be a soldier.

However, Chu Yun also recruited more than 2,000 Han people and more than 1,000 Hu people, and then threw them all to Ma Hui. The sinicization of the Hu people here is very serious, and they are very high to the Han people, coupled with Chu Yun's high military salary, so they are not worried about being disloyal. Only if Chu Yun doesn't lose Xihe County, these guys will still be obedient, and their families are all under Chu Yun's rule.

In addition, from the captured Hun soldiers, Chu Yun picked out more than 3,000 people and stuffed them to Ma Hui, these people are all auxiliaries in the Hun army, many of them were forced to join, full of resentment towards the Huns, these people are excellent soldiers. As for the other captives, they all need to build Wu forts and castles for the Iron Blood.

There are more than 1,000 veterans left in the Eighth Infantry Brigade, and it is believed that with them leading the new recruits, the Eighth Infantry Brigade will soon become the most elite of the more than a dozen infantry brigades.

Just when Chu Yun was constantly increasing the strength of Xihe County to prevent the second invasion of the Huns, Liu Cong, the emperor of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, finally received the news of the defeat.

After Liu Cong, who had already handed over all the power to his son Liu Wei, heard the news, he did not get angry, nor did he anger the Han people as usual, but calmly held a meeting of several important ministers.

Whether it was Liu Wei or several other important ministers, they all shouted and fought back in the face of the fiasco, as if they could not show their loyalty to Liu Cong, but Liu Cong did not express his position, the pale and obese Liu Cong has not appeared in front of everyone for a long time, except for Liu Cong who summoned everyone once because of Shi Le's reward a few months ago, and the rest of the time they were all tired of being with his beauty.

However, even if the tiger is old or a tiger, he didn't care about others, but calmly and deeply paid attention to Liu Ji, his good son and successor. Liu Wei suddenly felt chills all over his body, he didn't know why his father looked at him with such eyes, and the huge pressure made him kneel directly on the ground. When several important ministers saw this scene, they closed their mouths one after another, and they stood there like stakes with their eyes and noses and noses.

"How much benefit did you take from Shi Le?" Liu Cong slowly spoke, Liu Ji and several important ministers were all shocked when they heard this, they did receive Shi Le's benefits, but they didn't understand why Liu Cong asked this, did he want to settle accounts after the autumn? But Shi Le is now attacking and merging with them, he is really obedient, isn't His Majesty going to do something to Shi Le? Several important ministers are all thinking about it, and it is Liu Ji who is under the greatest pressure.

"Father, the sons did receive some benefits from Shi Le, but these are all normal exchanges..." Before Liu Jian finished speaking, Liu Cong threw down the teacup on the table in front of him, Liu Wei was smashed squarely, blood flowed down Liu Ji's head, and he was embarrassed.

"All of you go out. Liu Cong waved his hand, and the rest of Jin Zhun and the others all bent down and retreated.

"Father, the son doesn't know what he did wrong, so he begs his father to make it clear. Liu Wei said tremblingly, don't look at his current high power, is Xiangguo, Da Shan Yu, the general consul civil and military officials, and even known as the prince, but he is not the first heir of the Xiongnu Han State, the real first heir is the emperor's brother Liu Yi, he is just the second heir, so he made many military exploits in his early years, Yongjia five years, he killed Sima Mo, the king of Nanyang in the Jin Dynasty; and then in the sixth year of Yongjia, he led the army to attack Jinyang, and captured the Jin Dynasty's Shangshu Lu Zhi, Xu Yao, the prince's right guard Cui Wei and others. The purpose of his doing this was to attract Liu Cong's attention, and he did it, he now has a monopoly on power, but he is still not satisfied, and he put the goal on the imperial brother Liu Yi to peep into the throne. And to do this, he must get Liu Cong's favor, so he has always shown a loyal and filial appearance in front of Liu Cong.

"You are confused, what kind of person is Shile, don't you know? He killed Wang Mi and annexed his men, and from that time on, everyone knew Shile's ambitions. Don't you Liu Wei know? It's just a matter of collecting some money, but you are the successor in my heart, and you are the next emperor of my Great Han Kingdom, and you actually acted as a thug for Shi Le when you didn't understand the situation, this is Shi Le's plan to drive away the wolf, can't you see it? Who is Hu Yanyan? He is a veteran of the two dynasties, one of the best generals in our Han Dynasty, and he led an army of 80,000 to be defeated by someone, do you know what this means? This means that there is a force that can threaten us in Bingzhou. Moreover, he was defeated in Xihe County, where we started, and Xihe County was lost, and you, the prime minister, didn't even know about it? The strategic location of Xihe County, do you know what it means to our capital Pingyang? As the prime minister, Da Shan Yu, and my successor, you don't even have the least sense of crisis, who is in the hands of Xihe County, and which force defeated Huyanyan, do you know? Shi Le really wanted to help us occupy the prefecture, so he should go to Taiyuan County, but he attacked Shangdang County, do you know what he was doing this? You really disappointed me. The more Liu Cong spoke, the more angry he became, and he wanted to pick up the things on the table and smash them at Liu Wei, but was stopped by the eunuch Wang Shen beside him, Liu Cong didn't know whether to give Wang Shen face, or he couldn't bear it, so he really put it down.

Liu Wei was covered in a cold sweat, he didn't expect his father to support him to replace the emperor's uncle, which was a good thing. But all the questions asked by his father Liu Cong just now, he didn't know that all his thoughts were on how to replace his imperial uncle and enjoy it. He didn't know what to say in order to continue to maintain his position in his father's heart, and he was even more frightened, so he could only bow his head deeply and not speak.

"Hey, get up, this is the news I received, you can take a look first. Liu Cong looked at Liu Yu and shook his head deeply, his son has the talent to lead soldiers, but he is really not good at governing the country, although he has lived in the deep palace for a long time, he is not unaware of the bastard things he has done. But although he has more than 20 sons, except for Liu Ji, the rest are either too young or have no talent. He appointed his younger brother as the emperor's younger brother back then, and it was also to stabilize the situation as soon as possible, and who didn't want his son to inherit his throne? Besides, he also had a purpose in reusing Liu Wei to contend with his younger brother, the imperial prince.

Liu Wei took a few pieces of paper handed over by the eunuch Wang Shen, and looked at them carefully, but the more he looked at them, the more frightened he became, it was not the first time that Chu Yun, the county guard of Shangdang, appeared in his sight. The first time he appeared was a few years ago, he and Liu Yao sent troops to contribute to Jinyang, and he came back smoothly, but Liu Yao failed miserably. It is also for this reason that he was completely recognized by his father Liu Cong and named King of Jin. At that time, he just laughed at Liu Yao in his heart, and Liu Yao's failure set off his extraordinary.

The second time was that the Bingzhou army broke through the two counties, plundered hundreds of thousands of people, and even the general Gongshi Leopard was killed, but this time the death of the Gongshi Leopard not only did not make Liu Wei sad, but helped him a lot, Gongshi Leopard is his father's absolute descendant, but this person is also the emperor's brother Liu Yi's person,

Liu Yi, the heir, was made the emperor's younger brother at the place where Liu Cong was on the throne, so many depressed ministers were put under his command, including Gongshi Bao's father, Gongshi Yu, although these people did not hold a very important position, but there were a large number of them, and their existence hindered Liu Wei's ascension. It just so happened that Chu Yun appeared, he killed Gongshi Leopard, and under this pretext, Liu Yi wantonly implicated Liu Yi's supporters, making his status rise rapidly.

Because of these two things, Liu Wei not only did not have the forces hostile to Shangdang County, but had some good feelings. But seeing the information Liu Cong gave him, Liu Ji was not calm at all.

Chu Yun, the deputy governor of Bingzhou and the county guard of Shangdang County and Xihe County under the title of the Chang'an Imperial Court, called himself the Iron Blood Army, and they were nominally subordinate to Liu Kun's men, but they were self-contained. A few months ago, they took advantage of Shile to attack Youzhou, and tens of thousands of troops entered Yizhou, defeated the general Huyanmo, and defeated Shile's nephew Shi Hu, and emptied the three counties of Guangping.

Only then did Liu Jian know why Shi Le instigated them to send troops, it turned out that they had a deep blood feud. But this is nothing, because whether it is to enter Luoyang or Yizhou, it is to take advantage of its unpreparedness, and the maximum number of troops dispatched by the Iron and Blood Army is 10,000, which cannot arouse his vigilance. But this time, the four-way army attacked and merged with the state, and at the most critical moment of Shangdang County, they finally showed their strong and low-key heritage.

In Tianjing Pass and Pukou Pass in Shangdang County and Pingjin Valley in Xihe County, the Iron and Blood Army actually deployed no less than 15,000 people, which is nearly 50,000 strength. And what is even more terrifying is that they were able to defeat the 80,000 army led by Hu Yanyan in Xihe County, and Jin Ming, who fled back, said that their army was no less than 50,000, and most of them were cavalry. Of course, they didn't know that Jin Ming actually lied in order to shirk responsibility, but the strength of the Iron Blood Army of at least 100,000 people still made Liu Wei take a big startle.

Shangdang County is next to Pingyang, how can he think about it and feel terrible, you must know that although their Xiongnu and Han countries are strong, they are not casually put together an army of 100,000. Such an army is hiding under their noses, what is this going to do? Although Liu Wei is becoming more and more obsessed with women like his father, he is not stupid, no wonder his father is so angry.

"What do you think?" Liu Cong's already small eyes became smaller as he got fatter and fatter, and it was no wonder that some Han ministers who were afraid of Liu Cong's killing privately called him a rat-eyed thief, but Liu Cong glanced at Liu Cong, but he felt cold, Liu Cong's eyes were full of coldness, as if his son was his enemy. It wasn't until Wang Shen, the eunuch who was good with him, coughed quietly that Liu Wei came back to his senses, and he didn't have time to thank Wang Shen, but immediately knelt down.

"Father, the child is willing to personally raise the army to defeat the Iron Army for his father. After Liu Wei finished speaking, Liu Cong's face was much better, and he asked Wang Shen to help Liu Ji up.

"Emperor, Jin Ming still has 15,000 forbidden troops, I will give you another 15,000 forbidden army, and then allow you to mobilize 20,000 cavalry, 50,000 infantry, and 30,000 auxiliaries, a total of 130,000 troops, you must defeat the iron-blooded army for me, in addition, I will order Shi Le to strengthen the pressure on Shangdang County, so that Shangdang County and Xihe County cannot care about each other. This can be said to be the strength of the whole country, if you can return victorious, after a hundred years, the emperor of the Great Han Kingdom will be yours. After Liu Cong finished speaking, Liu Cong was overjoyed and thanked him again and again, and after Liu Cong went out, Liu Cong sat in his seat and was silent for a long time.

"Wang Shen, do you think Liu Yu can win this time?" Liu Cong's tone turned out to be an equal intersection, if others saw it, their jaws would definitely drop, Wang Shen was just a eunuch.

But Wang Shen didn't have the slightest politeness, he actually sat directly in front of Liu Cong, only to see him speak after a slight pause: "Liu Ji has a small talent, but he has no handsome talent, Hu Yanyan has such a character was defeated and died, I think Liu Ji is a little dangerous to go." In his mouth, there was no respect for Liu Ji at all.

"Hey, there is no general Liao Hua in Shu, and Liu Yao is now in Chang'an, so he can't be mobilized, so he can only be used to lead the troops. In just a few years, the veterans left to me by my father have withered, and I am ashamed of my father. My Han Kingdom seems to be strong now, but in fact, it is in danger, I only hope that the ancestral system will bless, Liu Wei can win, Chang'an is so unsmooth, if my Han is defeated continuously, then all other parties are also ready to move, and then it will really be useless to return to the sky. Liu Cong sighed.

"Your Majesty, you are planning for eternity, as long as our plan succeeds, will you still be worried about the Han Dynasty when the time comes?" After Wang Shen finished speaking, Liu Cong's pale face had a hint of blood, he laughed, and then immediately got up and ran towards the harem, Wang Shen hurriedly followed.

Except for the Iron Blood Army and the Xiongnu Han State, the rest of the forces did not know the result of this war, but the Xiongnu Han State and the Xiongnu Shile were still known by many forces, and Liu Kun's prestige was immediately expressed, and everyone thought that it was Liu Kun who was besieged, so many small forces who had received Liu Kun's favor and wanted to fish in troubled waters in this chaotic situation jumped out one after another.

"Report to the Governor, the documents sent to you by the Pingding County Order. Just when Chu Yun was busy in the dark, Ma Liang, the county commander of Pingding County, who was thrown by Chu Yun to the north of Xihe County, sent a document, Chu Yun didn't read it immediately, he signed a few urgent documents, and then picked it up, when Chu Yun finished reading Ma Liang's paperwork, he was overjoyed.
