Chapter Thirty-Eight: News from Jinyang

"Haha, everyone sit down. I only know today that the heroic wind in the land of Sanjin is no less than Yan Zhao, which is very good. Chu Yun pressed his hands and everyone sat down one after another.

Chu Yun pointed to the last person to speak: "Come on, please ask that gentleman to come to the front and sit next to me." "All the families turned a blind eye to this scene, Chu Yun put too much pressure on them, as long as they dealt with this killing god, they had no problem letting the Fan family at the bottom sit in the first place.

Fan Gao calmly stepped forward and saluted Chu Yun indifferently, and then knelt down in the position prepared by Chu Yun, this kind of bearing is not something that those heroes who have inherited less than a hundred years can have, Chu Yun remembered that this person had been a county magistrate, and under the examination, he found that this person really had real talent and learning, and Chu Yun was very satisfied.

Of course, Chu Yun will not favor one over the other, under Chu Yun's obscenity, each family agreed to send someone out to be an official, which is equivalent to being tied to Chu Yun, and contributing some grain, grass, gold and silver, Chu Yun did not meet the kind of person who fought against him by virtue of his life experience, those big families who really had the confidence and strength were either gone or exterminated, and the rest were crooked melons and inferior dates.

After sending away more than a dozen family heads, Chu Yun turned his head to look at Fan Gao beside him: "Duke Fan, do you think they will have the same heart with me?"

"They don't have the same heart with anyone, but as long as the adults have the authority and can give them benefits, they can't do it without the adults. Chu Yun thought so.

"Duke Fan, I am here for the first time, but the party is still not fully attached, I want to ask Duke Fan to help me temporarily control the city of the eldest son, I don't know if Duke Fan is willing to help?" Chu Yun asked directly.

"My lord, we are just the first acquaintance, why do you value it so much?" Fan Gao asked as he looked at Chu Yun. Chu Yun complained in his heart, could he tell Fan Gao that he was picking one of the rotten persimmons that didn't look the worst? So, it is estimated that Fan Gao will be able to gather people to rebel when he returns home.

"Fan Gong, those who have achieved great things should be employed. I don't think Fan Gong is shocked by his honor and disgrace, he has the style of a countryman, and he is also proficient in practical things, he is not a pedantic person, if a great talent like Fan Gong is unwilling to serve the imperial court, then what hope does the imperial court have? Now that the Hu people are rampant, I am determined to restore the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, I wonder if Fan Gong will also help me?" After Chu Yun finished speaking, of course Fan Gao would not bow his head and bow, Chu Yun did not have that fame, Fan Gao looked at Chu Yun's eyes for a long time before sighing.

"I have long seen that the building is going to fall, and I left under the depression, and returned home, I have also seen Liu Tingshi, although this person has ambition and ambition, but he does not have the ability to match, in the troubled times, I only seek self-preservation. Now that my lord is so ambitious and treats me like a countryman, I can only do my best. Fan Gao bowed down and said, Chu Yun was overjoyed, there was a local snake guarding the eldest son city for him, and he could free up his hands to do more things, Chu Yun immediately worshiped Fan Gao as the Shangdang County Gong Cao, and stationed in the eldest son city with the lord Bo Chu Chenglin, the commander Liu Bi, the county military captain Zhao Hu, and the deputy captain Fang Yong.

More than 1,000 county soldiers in the eldest son city were cut to 200 people, and the remaining 800 people were firmly controlled by Liu Bi and Zhao Hu, Chu Yun left fifty more iron-blooded army sergeants under Liu Bi's control, Chu Yun believed that with Liu Bi's ability, even if he encountered any problems, he could easily solve them, and he also had the task of recruiting soldiers, and how much he could recruit depended on Liu Bi's ability. And government affairs are controlled by Fan Gao and Chu Chenglin.

Two days later, Chu Yun led his army out of Eldest Son City without the residents of Eldest Son City knowing it, and his next target was Gaoping in the south. At that time, the Huns were divided into two teams to enter the annexed state, one team with Liu Yao as the main team from Yang'a in the southeast corner of Shangdang County, and the other with Liu Yao as the main army from the northwest of Shangdang County, but although Liu Yao's route was much shorter than Liu Ji's route, but the resistance encountered was more. Therefore, after Liu Wei broke several county seats, he merged with Liu Yao in the north of Shangdang County, and destroyed the army sent by Liu Kun in the first battle, and then Liu Wei directly entered Jinyang without delay.

Therefore, on the route of the two people's march, all the towns were captured by them, and there were garrisons left by the Huns in these places, Chu Yun was ready to turn clockwise to eliminate all the Hun garrisons, and the eldest son city as a county town was only three hundred people. Chu Yun estimated that the sum of these people was about a thousand, and Chu Yun was confident that he would be able to deal with it.

When Chu Yun was trying to clear the Huns on the territory, the Zhao Han army and the Xianbei army finally collided together, Liu Yao was ordered by Liu Wei to lead an army of 30,000 to block the Xianbei army on the east bank of Fenshui, and the Xianbei army confronted Liu Yao under the leadership of Tuoba Liuxiu, and the battle of tens of thousands of troops directly determined the fate of the state.

Chu Yun had come to Gaoping City at this time, Chu Yun occupied the north gate of Gaoping City according to the battle example of the eldest son city, and then quickly controlled Gaoping City, and captured a hundred Huns, and seized countless grains and grass, this is because Gaoping City was stubborn at that time to resist the Huns' troops, the Huns were angry and slaughtered the savings of several families, and they were captured by Chu Yun before they could be shipped out.

Chu Yun was overjoyed, and killed the two charter families and the county order Tu Shi who opened the city wall at that time with iron-blooded means, and then ordered all the county soldiers and five hundred people in the county to escort all the materials to the eldest son city, and under the escort of fifty iron-blooded soldiers, Gaoping City could only surrender. Chu Yun ordered Ma Xiu, the son of the Ma family, who had been slaughtered at that time, to take control of Gaoping City as the county commander, and then left this place. Chu Yun's arrival almost disarmed Gaoping City, because these people all escorted supplies to the eldest son, so they had no ability to betray Chu Yun, and these county soldiers were all gathered together, so that Chu Yun could have the courage to defend the eldest son city, as for the other towns, Chu Yun didn't count on them.

Within a month, Chu Yun's iron-blooded army broke through seven county towns, captured hundreds of Huns, captured thousands of horses, and countless grains, grasses, and armor, and these materials, along with the armaments of all county towns, were sent by Chu Yun to the city of the eldest son.

Chu Yun repaired in Nie County, and there were only more than 500 people left under Chu Yun's direct lineage, of course, the loss was very small, only more than 30 people died, and dozens of people were injured, but Chu Yun had to send his subordinates to escort the county soldiers and materials back to the eldest son, so under the continuous division of troops, it would seem that there were few people. Chu Yun estimated that the eldest son city had so many materials, county soldiers, and strong people, so not to mention impregnable, at least it gave Chu Yun the strength to defend the eldest son city.

Just when Chu Yun was about to leave Niexian County and return to the eldest son city, the battle between Liu Yao and the Xianbei people finally ended, the Han army was defeated, Liu Yao fled west across the Fenshui, and there were less than 10,000 people left, and the general Fu Hu was killed, if Yuan Bin knew that his son-in-law was so short-lived, I don't know if he would sigh that he had no eyes, of course, he had no chance to regret it, and the two of them went to Huangquan Road together as companions.

However, although the Zhao Han army failed, Liu Yao's strategic goal had already been completed, he just let Liu Yao drag the Xianbei people, and then empty Jinyang, not only materials, but also people, more than 100,000 people in Jinyang City have long been escorted out of the city, and now it is estimated that they have all arrived in Mengshan. I have to say that Liu Wei's move is really ruthless, population is the most basic and important component of a force, without people, even if you Liu Kun recaptures Jinyang, there will be no threat.

In late October, Liu Kun, who had been away from Jinyang for several months, entered Jinyang City, and when he saw the empty Jinyang City, Liu Kun suddenly felt deceived, and he immediately asked Tuoba Liuxiu to pursue the Zhao Han army, but Tuoba Liuxiu rejected Liu Kun's suggestion on the grounds that the army had been fighting hard for days, was physically and mentally exhausted, and waited for his father's army to come and discuss again.

Liu Kun returned to his own Assassin's Mansion that had been looted and was furious, he spared no effort in order to win over the Xianbei people, not to mention that he did not care about the identity of the Xianbei people and formed a brotherly alliance with Yilu, and asked the imperial court to appoint Yilu as the big single Yu, and to make him the acting prince on behalf of the county, and later asked to make him the acting king. Moreover, the five counties of Loufu, Mayi, Yinguan, Fanzhi, and Lao in the northern part of the country were ceded to Tuoba Xianbei. As for favoring Tuoba Liuxiu and forcing the general Xing Yan to curry favor with him, there are even more flattery, but now he is doing this to me?

However, Liu Kun's anger was dissuaded by his subordinates, he now has no soldiers and no one, and it is absolutely impossible to turn his face with the Xianbei people. Besides, he still has illusions about his brother-in-law Tuoba Yilu, so he can only endure it. Under repeated lessons, he also knew that he must have his own army, otherwise he would not even have the confidence to speak. It's a pity that all the 15,000 people lent to him by his nephew Liu Yan returned to Yizhou. He remembered the young man he was very optimistic about, but the person sent out actually told him that the cavalry in Qixian County would say goodbye without saying goodbye, and this blow made Liu Kun feel painful. Later, Chu Yun's good friend Mo Han commented on Liu Kun, and once said that Liu Kun was good at caressing and short of control. In one day, although thousands of people returned, so did those who left. There is nothing wrong with these assessments.

A few days later, Tuoba Yilu's 200,000 troops arrived one after another, and the powerful army made Liu Kun abandon the plan to establish his own army that had just risen in his mind, Tuoba Yilu replied to Liu Kun's request immediately, he scolded his son Tuoba Liuxiu, and then personally commanded 20,000 cavalry to chase, Liu Kun's self-esteem was greatly satisfied, and he followed Tuoba Yilu to Mengshan.

Mengshan is the retreat site deliberately chosen by Liu Wei, this is not the Mengshan of the Taiping Rebellion, nor the Mengshan of Linyi, Shandong, but a mountainous area south of Jinyang. Why did Liu Wei abandon the avenue and walk from here, it is because the terrain here is dangerous, it is a good place to block, the population they plundered has been escorted by the army through Mengshan, as long as they block Mengshan for a period of time, they can leave calmly, and Liu Kun's threat no longer exists, and the history of the merger of the state with no one under his command is like a toothless tiger. I have to say that Liu Yao is really a master of planning, although Liu Yao used to be a little disdainful of Liu Ji, but now he has to start admiring it in his heart.

He ordered Liu Yao to command an army of 5,000 troops through Shangdang County to escort 50,000 people to Luoyang for resettlement, and take the captured population directly to their Zhao Han's capital, which made Liu Yao show his face greatly, and made Emperor Liu Cong appreciate Liu Yao more, Liu Yao instantly understood Liu Yao's kindness, and the relationship between the two was greatly eased. And he took 10,000 horses to escort 80,000 or 90,000 people to Hedong County for resettlement. Hedong County is a very important place in strategic location, but after many major wars, Hedong is sparsely populated, and if these populations are resettled, the war potential of Hedong County will be greatly improved, and Liu Ji's eyesight is really amazing.

As for the work after the break, Liu Wei arranged for Liu Feng, the general of Zhenbei, to break off, and Liu Wei was not stingy and left 8,000 men and horses for this brother of the same clan. Liu Feng is also a member of the Han and Zhao royal family, after he received the order, he was also grateful to Liu Wei, this task seems to be dangerous, but Liu Feng feels very safe, he does not believe that the Xianbei people will fight hard for such a state assassination, but in a cautious way, he immediately built a position in Mengshan, but under the influence of his main general, the position just coped with things.

When Chu Yun was about to return to the eldest son city to reorganize the army, he probed the Malay newspaper that a large number of people were surging in the north, and he didn't know what the situation was, and this news attracted Chu Yun's attention. The degree of closure of the news in this era is unimaginable to later generations, Shangdang County and Taiyuan County are next to each other, but Chu Yun is almost completely unaware of the previous wars in Taiyuan County.

Chu Yun personally led his subordinates to investigate, and there were people dragging their families everywhere along the way, just like the homeless, but Chu Yun didn't dare to contact easily, because there were many people wearing military uniforms and armor among these people, Chu Yun didn't know if they were defeated or who they were, and thanks to Chu Yun's alertness, otherwise the loss of Shangdang County would be known by Liu Yao, so that Liu Yao was wary, so all the plans in the future would have to be reimbursed.

Liu Yao is more cautious than enterprising, so he is so disgusted with Liu Yao's kind of thing of bringing women in the army, and although Liu Cong is a Huns, he has to say that he really knows people and makes good use of them, so he will order Liu Yao to assist his son, Liu Yao and Liu Yao's temperament is just the opposite, and it can be regarded as complementary.

After Chu Yun took people to observe carefully for a while, he was finally glad that he did not show up casually, this was indeed a man-made migration, and the density of the escorted army was so large that Chu Yun was surprised, basically there was only one guard among thirty or forty people, so although it was very slow, there was nothing wrong. I don't know if these guys have taken the wrong medicine, and these escort personnel did not bully the escort people casually, so that although the escorted people were in a sad mood and even cried bitterly, there was no chaos.

However, not everyone is so honest, a half-sized boy took advantage of the caretaker's inattention, and hit the unlucky soldier on the head with a stick, the soldier fell to the ground with a scream, and everyone around was stunned, but the half-eldest boy did not stop at all, he quickly fled towards the mountain forest where Chu Yun was, and when the guard soldier stood up, he had already entered the forest immediately, and the terrible shout spread far away, and soon dozens of cavalry appeared in the place where the incident occurred. Dozens of cavalry quickly chased after the half-sized man.

"Bring the kid here, and the rest of the people will retreat at once. ”

Chu Yun immediately gave an order when he saw this scene, and when the Huns searched the entire forest and did not find this escaper, they did not do anything other than scolding a few words, after all, they just ran away from one person.

Chu Yun and the others ran out for a full three miles before stopping, the half-sized man just now was placed on the horse horizontally by a Fang Dashan, and as soon as he stopped, this Fang Dashan carried him and jumped off the horse, the thin young man was like a little chicken in the hands of the tall Fang Dashan, Fang Dashan did not delay, and threw this person in front of Chu Yun in three steps and two steps.

The young man looked like he had been thrown a lot, and it took a long time before he raised his head in pain, just in time to meet Chu Yun's eyes. Chu Yun's eyes were full of indifference, and he didn't dare to look at it anymore after taking a look, he secretly shot at the other people around him, but most of the people in the Iron Blood Army were the same as Chu Yun, their eyes were full of coldness and evil spirit, this kid didn't dare to look at it, and paid attention to the surrounding environment.

"This kid is very interesting, and he wants to run when he comes to us. What's your name?How did you get here?Who is escorting you?Where are you going?As long as you answer honestly, I won't hurt you. Chu Yun said with a kind expression.

The kid's eyes rolled: "You ask so many questions, how do I know to answer that first?And before you ask about the identity of others, aren't you going to tell me about your own identity first?" When everyone heard this, they laughed, and Chu Yun also laughed.

"Good boy, a bit of guts. ”
