Basically, in the face of the Huns over the years, the Chang'an court has won and lost, and basically maintained the situation. Sima Ye and the group of people loyal to the Jin Dynasty became more and more courageous, even if they were betrayed by traitors, even if Chang'an was lost to the end of the road, they did not have the slightest intention of defecting to the enemy and betraying the country.

But I don't know what these scholars of the Jin Dynasty think, they have the same hobby as Wang Jun of Youzhou and Liu Kun of Bingzhou, that is, they like to lead the Hu people into the customs at every turn, and Emperor Huai of Jin was captured by the Huns because of the loss of Luoyang, and Sima Mo, the king of Nanyang who was guarding Chang'an, held great power. It's a pity that this guy was rewarded and punished unfairly, and he didn't give the corresponding position to Zhao Ran, the tooth keeper who had made meritorious contributions, and when Zhao Ran was guarding the important place Pusaka, he was attacked by the Huns, but Feng Yi Taishou ignored it, so he surrendered to the Huns in anger. This scene is similar to the result caused by Liu Kun's men ordering Fox Ni to defect to the Huns, who let Bingzhou be completely disabled by the Huns, if it wasn't for the Xianbei people to save him, Liu Kun would have finished playing. The former let Chang'an fall away, and after Zhao Ran surrendered to Zhao Han, Sima Mo, the king of Nanyang, was repeatedly defeated and forced to surrender.

However, after the defeat of the king of Nanyang, the ministers loyal to the Jin Dynasty, An Yi Hujun, Shi Ping Taishou Lu Yun and An Ding Taishou Jia Kai, conspired to revive the Jin Dynasty. Everyone then promoted Jia Kai as the general of Pingxi, led 50,000 troops to attack Chang'an, and received a response from other prefectures and counties that refused to surrender to Han Zhao. The army defeated the Han and Zhao armies many times, and the momentum was greatly boosted, and the Hu people and Han people in Guanxi responded one after another, and the Han and Zhao generals Liu Yao had to retreat to Chang'an City, and the Jin Dynasty army then besieged Chang'an. At the same time, Yan Ding took Sima Ye, the king of Qin, into the customs, and Jia Kai sent troops to meet him, and recovered Chang'an in that year.

This Jia Kai and Lu Yun can be said to be the great heroes of the restoration of the Jin Dynasty, and they are also the pillars of the Jin Dynasty. This Jia Kai is not a person who keeps to himself, he had a conflict with his superior Yongzhou Thorn Shi Ding Xuan, and was framed by Ding Xuan, who was not tolerated by Sima Mo, the king of Nanyang, Sima Mo sent people to crusade against Jia Kai, and Jia Kai fled to the upper reaches of the Lushui River in Anding County, the upper reaches of the Lushui River are inhabited by ethnic minorities, and there are ethnic minorities such as Lu Shuihu and Di people. And Lu Shui Hu Peng Dangzhong is the hereditary chieftain of Lu Shui Hu, Jia Kai did not take into account the difference between Han and Hu, and Peng Dangzhong and other minority chieftains became brothers, using their forces to counterattack the Jin Dynasty's army, Ding Sui saw that Jia Kai led Hu soldiers into the country, and felt that something was wrong, so he fled to Wudu, and the army of the king of Nanyang was defeated by the Hu people.

Although Jia Kai was loyal to the Jin Dynasty later, these things he did in the early stage can be said to be the culprit of the defeat of King Nanyang in Chang'an, and his rebellion and leading the Hu people into the customs reduced Chang'an's strength to the extreme. This guy is even more desperate to turn his face and not recognize people, with the help of Lu Shuihu, he was not killed by his superior Yongzhou Thorn Shi Ding, but successfully rose. At this time, Chang'an was broken because of insufficient troops, and his sworn brother and benefactor Lu Shui Hu Peng Dangzhong wanted to go to the Huns, after all, they were originally Hu people, and they still defeated the defenders of Chang'an, if they defected to the Jin Dynasty, they would definitely not be able to please. But after Jia Kai knew, he didn't persuade Peng Dangzhong, nor did he think about it, it was his own actions that made Peng Dangzhong and the Jin court go to hell, and finally he could only take refuge in the Huns, so he directly set up a Hongmen banquet to slaughter Peng Dangzhong.

The viciousness of this person's mind can be said to be terrifying, and after killing Peng Dangzhong, he should cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but he doesn't have such courage, and finally Peng Dangzhong's son Peng Tianhu avenged his father, and entangled the Hu soldiers in the Lushui area to pursue Jia Kai, Jia Kai was in a hurry, stopped the army from resisting, and actually fell into the water and was slaughtered by Peng Tianhu.

Jia Kai's actions are full of loopholes and extremely short-sighted, but no matter how ridiculous it is, he can also be regarded as a great hero of the restoration of Jin. After Jia Kai's death, Lu Yun became the assassin of Yongzhou, this Lu Yun is not a good thing, although he is loyal to the court, but he has a strong desire for power, and he did not hesitate to force away the guard crown prince Sima Ye to return to Chang'an, and the talented Yan Ding. After Yan Ding left, he took power, and Yan Ding was just forced to leave, the Huns' army arrived, Lu Yun stubbornly led the army to resist, he confronted Liu Yao's army, the two sides fought several times, were defeated, and Lu Yun suddenly felt that the dark clouds were shrouded.

At this time, Liu Bi, Guo Shuzi and the Fourth Brigade returned to Shangdang County, and they brought a large number of war horses, population, and grain and grass, and Chu Yun personally went out of the city twenty miles to meet them.

The more than 9,000 war horses brought by Liu Bi and Guo Shuzi made the number of cavalry under Chu Yun exceed 10,000, although the war horses are still rich, but there are not enough people who can ride, so although Chu Yun still has a lot of war horses left, but the horseback riding has temporarily reached the limit.

But 10,000 cavalry is already unimaginable strong army of the Han people, don't look at the majesty of the Huns, but the number of their cavalry is definitely not more than 100,000, or even less, the Huns are attached to the Jin Dynasty, although they also retain the habit of raising horses, but they lost the grassland, the real control of the grassland is the Xianbei people, the Xianbei cavalry has hundreds of thousands of people, if it is not unity, what Huns and what court are scum.

And even if the Huns had 100,000 cavalry, they were also arranged in a vast area, so even if Liu Yao attacked Chang'an, he would bring only 20,000 cavalry, such as Chu Yun's 10,000 cavalry, which was already a very strong army.

For the next war, Chu Yun divided the 10,000 cavalry into five parts, Chu Yun personally commanded 4,000 people, still named the Guards Cavalry, with Guo Yong as the deputy commander, and the remaining 6,000 cavalry, Liu Bi commanded 2,000 people, and established the 1st Cavalry Brigade; Guo Shuozi commanded 2,000 people to establish the 2nd Cavalry Brigade; and Fang Dashan commanded 1,000 people, which was the 3rd Cavalry Brigade. More than 9,000 of them were the main force attacking the Huns, Fang Dashan was the vanguard, Chu Yun was the middle army, Liu Bi was the left army, and Guo Shuzi was the right army. Of the remaining 1,000 people, Chu Yun ordered Zhao Hu to be the commander of the 4th Cavalry Brigade, and his main role was to be a firefighter in case the Huns attacked the state after Chu Yun left. In addition, it is responsible for training cavalry.

Chu Yun also selected more than 3,000 people to join the infantry, so that the infantry in Shangdang County reached 25,000 people, so that the five brigades of the infantry were all full, and more than 5,000 people were also selected to form a reserve brigade, they are reserves, and the main task now is to train the troops, ready to replenish the blood of the iron-blooded army at any time.

The commander of the first brigade was Zhou Bin, who was responsible for stationing in Jincheng in the south of Shangdang County, ready to receive Chu Yun's cavalry at any time, and also to prevent the Huns from going north. They are made up of veterans of the Iron Blooded Army, and they are very strong in combat, because their tasks are also very difficult.

The brigade commander of the second brigade is Liu Hai, he is Liu Bi's uncle, he has rich battlefield experience, he is responsible for stationing in the west of Shangdang County, Shashi County, responsible for guarding against the offensive of the Huns in the east, they are also composed of veterans, the combat effectiveness is very strong, here has long been at the beginning of Chu Yun's arrival in Shangdang County, so even if the Xiongnu army of tens of thousands is difficult to attack Shangdang County from the west side of Shangdang County.

Cui Zhen, the brigade commander of the third brigade, that is, the kid that Zhang Tong rescued from the tribe of the Huns, this guy was accepted as an apprentice by Zhang Tong, and was ruthlessly sent into the army, he showed extraordinary talent for most of the year, and he was loyal and reliable, and was directly appointed by Chu Yun as the acting brigade commander, of course, this is also related to Chu Yun's acceptance of his sister Cui Ning, after all, it is his brother-in-law, Chu Yun can rest assured. The brigade commander of the fifth brigade is Wang Dao, he is the son of the side line left after the Wangjiabao was exterminated, this person is calm and wise, and soon stands out in the iron-blooded army, he once served as the county lieutenant of the Great Jin, and also has experience in commanding the army, but unfortunately he is a sideline, because he is not valued, he has not been promoted for many years, so he returned home disheartened, and at the most critical moment of Wangjiabao, he was not trusted by the Wang family, who thought that after the Wangjiabao was destroyed, he burst out with vitality. The Fifth Brigade is now also full of 5,000 men, and although most of them are new recruits, they have the help of the Third Brigade. The 3rd and 5th Brigades were now in charge of defending the Pingjin Valley, and they were given the task of not allowing any Huns to break through into the hinterland of Bingzhou, so they were the most powerful on this route. Cui Zhen and Wang Dao are one enterprising, the other calm and cautious, and the two were specially selected by Chu Yun.

The brigade commander of the Fourth Brigade was Fang Ai, and he sent out 2,000 people to help the First Brigade garrison Jincheng, and the remaining 3,000 people were stationed in Changzi City with Zhao Hu of the Fifth Cavalry Brigade as firefighters, and Fang Yong, that is, the city gate officer of the original Changzi City, was promoted again, and he served as the acting brigade commander of the reserve brigade, responsible for training troops and replenishing blood for other brigades. Chu Yun arranged an army of 30,000 in Shangdang County, and he felt that it was foolproof, so he was ready to notify Liu Kun to officially set out on the expedition.

And Chu Yun of the eldest son city was handed over to a few henchmen and ministers, except for Bo Chu Chenglin, the lord who followed Chu Yun on the expedition, the rest of the people all stayed in the eldest son city, after all, the long journey is not something that ordinary literati can bear. And Chu Chenglin is younger, and he is from a poor family, he is also in good health, Chu Yun needs such a person to count some data and information for himself.

The eldest son city was handed over to the county Cheng Mo Han, the left Sima Wang Lian of the Governor's Mansion, the right Sima Fangqing, the commander Zhang Tong, the Gong Cao Fan Gao, and the lord Bo Li Jin, these six people were in charge of the military by Zhang Tong, Wang Lian and Fang Qing were responsible for logistics, Fan Gao and Li Jin were responsible for the order, and then Mo Han was in charge of everything. They belonged to different camps and also managed to check and balance each other, and as Chu Yun's tide rose, they were all promoted. In addition, Chu Yun also appointed Mao Qing as the post supervisor, in charge of picketing the county, supervising the officials and people of the county, and in charge of the Shangdang Racecourse.

Huang Kai of the Supervision Department followed Chu Yun on the expedition, while Feng Chengjia was stationed in the Eldest Son City, Chu Yun believed in Feng Chengjia very much, with him as the last shackle, Chu Yun didn't believe that there would be any accidents in Shangdang County after he left.

At the end of May of the first year of the Great Jin Dynasty, Chu Yun ordered Li Jin to go to Jinyang, the capital of Bingzhou, to report to Liu Kun, but he did not wait for Liu Kun's official order and officially swore in the city of the eldest son. Under the farewell of all the officials of Shangdang County, Chu Yun personally led 9,000 iron cavalry, carried more than 1,000 spare horses, and led thousands of dairy sheep from the eldest son city to officially send troops. Prior to this, all infantry brigades had been arranged in place, except for the work of Pingjingu, which had not yet been completed, and the rest of the directions had been prepared.

Seeing Chu Yun's army leave the Eldest Son City in a mighty manner, all the civil officials in Chu Yun were in different moods.

"Three years, only three years have been the governor has developed to this point, it's like a dream. Wang Lian, who is the head of Chu Yun's civil officials, said with emotion that although his position is not as good as Mo Han, he is the oldest in his grade and the oldest with Chu Yun, so even if his talent is limited, Mo Han has no intention of competing with him.

"Yes, Du Du is really a man of God, back then, my Fang family was still unwilling to take refuge in Du Du, Du Du said that I was short-sighted and didn't seem to be wrong. Fang Qing also said with a smile, he was scared by Chu Yun at that time, and it took a few months to recover, and his cousin Fang Ai earned face for him, so his position was stable. Fang Qing has a gentle temper and the style of an elder, he is not only trusted by Chu Yun but also liked by his colleagues, so his boy is still living a very good life.

"Don't be presumptuous, if you can choose the governor, you will already have a higher vision than others. After Fan Gao finished speaking, everyone laughed. This Fan Gao stayed in the position of Gongcao for half a year, and he was not immediately accepted by Chu Yun as a confidant at first, but he was still serious, and after Chu Yun left, he was able to become several entrusted ministers, which was equivalent to Chu Yun officially accepting him, so he was in a much better mood.

"I hope this time it will be a success. Li Jin didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes were a little stunned and he looked at the direction in which the army disappeared.

"The Governor will succeed, we just need to keep the foundation for the Governor and wait for the Governor to return, let's go back." After Mo Han finished speaking, everyone came back to their senses, Mo Han used his wits and talents to establish his position these times, so as soon as he finished speaking, Wang Lian would not refute, and everyone returned to the eldest son city one after another.

On the other side, Feng Chengjia looked at a few Wenchen, his duties made him doubt everything, so Li Jin's reaction, he felt a little strange, and he was ready to investigate Li Jin. Not to mention the people in the eldest son city, Chu Yun's army slaughtered the southern part of Shangdang County, and the people along the way cheered when they saw the banner of the Iron and Blood Army, now Shangdang County has recovered some prosperity, and the land has been divided, Chu Yun's reputation in Shangdang County is very good, half of it is because of the propaganda of the Supervision Department, and the other half is that Chu Yun has indeed done a lot of good things.

However, Chu Yun's expression was not too good, there was really a drought in Shangdang County, there was not much rain this spring, the fields were obviously dried up, Chu Yun also tried his best to divert the water of the river for irrigation, dig wells, but the results were only average. According to the report of the Supervision Department, there are signs of drought not only in Shangdang County, but also in Bingzhou, Yizhou, and Yongzhou, and you must know that drought is often accompanied by locust plagues, and once a locust plague occurs, Shangdang County will never be able to exist alone.

Therefore, Chu Yun not only went out to attack the Huns this time, but the most important thing was to grab grain, although he accidentally got a lot of grain and grass from Xihe County, but it could not completely solve his dilemma, now Shangdang County has basically recovered the population of the Han Dynasty, and the population of Shangdang County has reached more than 200,000, you must know that during the Three Kingdoms period, the population of the whole country was only about 10 million, and after some recovery in the early years of the Jin Dynasty, it was less than 15 million, and now after the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, The consumption of the Yongjia Rebellion and so on, although it is not as good as the millions at the most tragic time of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, but it is definitely not more than 10 million, and a county can have more than 200,000 people, which is already the best manifestation of Chu Yun's ability.

However, Shangdang County is not a rich area like Xihe County, Shangdang County is mountainous, there are not many places to cultivate, and there are more than 200,000 people, the pressure on Chu Yun is very huge, Chu Yun is determined to come back, he will definitely completely annex Xihe County, let the two counties be connected together, and there will be no problem with a million people under his command at that time.

Just when Chu Yun was thinking wildly, Jincheng arrived, Jincheng was the station where Zhou Bin was stationed, and the county order was Shen Ke, a side disciple of the Shen family, the old man who followed Chu Yun, this guy was a copywriter of the county guard at the beginning, and was recommended to Chu Yun by Wang Lian, Chu Yun felt that this person was good, so he was promoted many times, and now he has become the county commander of Gaodu County, which is a very large county, which shows Chu Yun's trust in him.

The commander of the 1st Infantry Brigade, Zhou Bin, the lieutenant of Gaodu County, and Shen Ke, the lieutenant of Gaodu County, came to greet Chu Yun, and Chu Yun took Chu Chenglin and others into Jincheng, and the rest of his subordinates were all stationed outside the city. Jincheng has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, known as "Hedong Pinghan, the throat of the Central Plains, the gateway of the three Jin Dynasty", Chu Yun began to build the city wall here at the beginning of his tenure, and now the city wall of Jincheng is as high as seven or eight meters, very majestic, Chu Yun saw this, he had full confidence in the defense here.

Not to mention that Zhou Bin was originally one of the first few people who followed him, and followed him to fight in the north and south, it was his subordinates, and they were all Chu Yun's earliest old team, although they only had 5,000 people in the headquarters plus 2,000 people from the 4th Infantry Brigade, but with Xiongcheng as a support, even if 50,000 people came to attack, they might not necessarily be captured.

Some officers of the 1st Infantry Brigade were not qualified to go to meet Chu Yun, and they were also ordered not to leave the camp, so they could only crowd at the gate of the camp and on the arrow tower to try to take a look at their governor, and after Chu Yun found out, he immediately took a detour to the camp of the Iron Blood Army in Jincheng. Chu Da's arrival made everyone cheer, and Chu Yun also enjoyed the time with his soldiers.

"Put the reception feast here, and I'm going to eat and drink with these little monkeys. Chu Yun pointed to the soldiers who were lying on the arrow tower and had not had time to come down, and everyone laughed, and the shouts of Long Live Du were endless.

Chu Yun did not refuse to drink the toast of his soldiers, although he didn't like to drink very much, but in this era, Chu Yun really couldn't get drunk with this kind of low-purity grain wine. Moreover, he has now cultivated to the stage of transforming energy, although he can't directly expel the wine from his body like Duan Yu's six-vein divine sword, but he can still control his body not to absorb alcohol. The reception banquet lasted for two hours, Chu Yun drank no less than a hundred glasses of wine, Chu Yun's move made him closer to the Buyi Brigade, they were originally close confidants, even if Chu Yun let them die, they would not back down.

The reception banquet was over, the time was already late at night, Chu Yun was not drunk at all, he immediately met Zhou Bin, and the two of them discussed for half an hour before Chu Yun returned to the camp outside the city, since he was on the way out, he had to share weal and woe with his subordinates.

Before dawn the next day, Chu Yun commanded the army and set off, followed by a thousand infantry, led by Chu Yun's old friend Wuhuan Lu Di, this Lu Di has too soft personality, so although he followed Chu Yun very early, but now he is just a building master, this time following Chu Yun is preparing to receive Tianjing Pass.

Tianjing Pass, also known as Xiongding Pass. For the Jin-Henan border Xiongguan, located in the territory of Gaodu, the southernmost part of Taihang Mountain, is the pass leading to Jiaozuo, known as "one of the eight paths of Taihang", here should have been the gateway of the state, but also the gateway of Shangdang County, but unfortunately occupied by the Huns, the Huns are obviously very confident in themselves, they only sent 500 people to garrison the Tianjing Pass. But even so, it was difficult for Chu Yun to break through the Tianjing Pass head-on with his cavalry, even if he had an army of 10,000. However, there are exceptions to everything, Chu Yun has long been preparing to attack Luoyang, how could there be no plan.

"Huang Kai, it's up to you to supervise the Division. Chu Yun led the army to ten miles away from Tianjing Pass, stationed in a hollow, and then called Feng Chengjia over.

"Governor, don't worry, the first merit of the Southern Expedition will definitely be from my Supervision Division. Huang Kai said confidently.
