Wen Qiao has never blamed himself so much, he commanded 10,000 Bingzhou troops to follow behind the Shihu Army and wait to take over the territory of Shangdang County, Liu Kun gave him the order that he must not directly participate in the battle, and it is best not to let the Iron Blood Army know their existence, if the Shile Army can break through the Eldest Son City in one fell swoop, then Wen Qiao can appear openly, and when the time comes, he will play a scene to "defeat" the Shile Army, and he will become the savior of Shangdang County, and then smoothly take over the territory and population of Shangdang County, as for Chu Yun, he can take it at will. If the Shile army can't capture the city of the eldest son, then it is also good to take the population and food. But Liu Kun's idea is to hide the work and work hard Shi Lejun to do, and then make a move when he encounters benefits.

Liu Kun's idea is very good, and the implementation makes Wen Qiao's head bigger, but Wen Qiao's ability is very good, and there is no problem with the implementation so far, and the existence of Shi Lejun is well covered by him. And when he arrived in Shangdang County, he was going to hide, Wen Qiao was stationed several miles away from Nie County, and everyone who saw their army, Wen Qiao was arrested. Shi Hu was also surprisingly reasonable, and left alone with his troops to attack the county seat of Niexian.

Three days later, Shi Hu sent someone to inform Wen Qiao to take over Niexian, and Wen Qiao, who had been worried for three days, arrived in Niexian with mixed feelings, and the hellish Niexian County frightened Wen Qiao and his army of 10,000.

There were corpses everywhere, and the streets were full of dead people, and all kinds of ways to die made Wen Qiao retch. Holding on to the wall and vomiting for a while, the nausea was replaced by anger, in Wen Qiao's opinion, the people of Nixian County were already in his pocket, and he Shihu actually slaughtered the city.

commanded the army to clean up the entire county, and as many as tens of thousands of corpses raised Wen Qiao's self-blame and anger to the peak, and the soldiers who followed him were also completely annoyed. When a little girl who escaped Shi Hu's slaughter looked at Wen Qiao with angry and desperate eyes, Wen Qiao's anger finally couldn't be suppressed.

He frantically sent people to find Shi Hu, this madman, butcher, Wen Qiao wanted to make him look good. But Wen Qiao searched for a few days, Shi Hujun was nowhere to be found, and no one knew where Shi Hujun had gone.

Wen Qiao thought that Shi Hujun continued to fight forward, he ordered to close the gate of Niexian County, he was ready to cut off Shi Hu's retreat, if he didn't give himself an explanation, this time the cooperation would be broken up.

But to Wen Qiao's disappointment, the scouts he sent out found no trace of the Shi Hu Army in Shangdang County. A few days later, the news from Taiyuan County was that the Shi Hu Army had withdrawn, and at the same time, the angry eldest son city left behind Guo Shuzi received Chu Yun's order to rush over, and the Fifth Cavalry Brigade and the Eighth Cavalry Brigade surrounded them in Nie County.

The iron-blooded army outside Nie County didn't listen to their explanation at all, so they launched a strong attack, Wen Qiao's body was almost paralyzed on the ground as soon as he was weak, and there were only two guards left by Liu Kun sent to him, and they quickly supported Wen Qiao.

"Two strong men, I ask you to go out of the city immediately to ask for help from the state pastor, no one can go out except you, this 10,000 army is the hard work of the state pastor. Wen Qiao bowed to the two guards and said, the two of them glanced at each other and nodded heavily.

When Chu Yun arrived with the iron-blooded army, Wen Qiao was completely desperate, and Chu Yun came to the outside of Niexian County with a murderous spirit in his hand.

"Wen Qiao, I, Chu Yun, have played tricks on you, but you are angry with the people under my rule, and I swear that I will break your body into ten thousand pieces. Chu Yun's anger can be felt from a few hundred meters away Wen Qiao, Wen Qiao really can't say it, he is now soft, and the morale of the state army may completely collapse, he can only eat coptis dumbly.

Two hours later, even if Wen Qiao commanded with all his strength and created a lot of trouble for the iron-blooded army, the county seat of Niexian County was still broken by Chu Yun's invincible martial arts, Chu Yun directly killed the city wall alone, and calmly killed in the face of countless Bingzhou troops who rushed up, and even in the end, no one dared to approach Chu Yun, as more and more iron-blooded troops attacked the city wall, the Bingzhou army completely collapsed.

Looking at Wen Qiao who was escorted in front of him, Chu Yun endured it a few times before he couldn't help but not kill him, Chu Yun still needed to take this guy as a witness to confront Liu Kun, he waved his hand, and Wen Qiao was escorted down.

"Governor, there are a total of 130,000 people in Ni County, and there are 100,000 people living in the county seat, except for a few lucky ones, the rest have been killed, it is estimated that more than 80,000 people have been killed, and there are only 100 people left in the 7th Infantry Brigade. Listening to Guo Shuzi's report, Chu Yun rushed up angrily.

"What about Cui Zhen?" asked Chu Yun with a grim face.

"Brigade Commander Cui has not been found yet, and a few soldiers who survived said that Brigade Commander Cui escaped with them at that time, but the enemy cavalry was too close to chase too closely, so they were separated. Governor, the jungle in Shangdang County is dense, Brigade Commander Cui should be fine, he is too familiar with the terrain around here. Guo Shuozi's words are not comforting, Shangdang County does not have much arable land, and there are dense mountains and forests everywhere, if you escape, it is indeed very likely to get rid of the pursuers.

"There are too many enemy cavalry, how many?" Chu Yun immediately heard the flaw, there were only more than a hundred cavalry under Wen Qiao, and they all became prisoners of the Iron and Blood Army, and those routs actually said that the enemy had too many cavalry, which was a bit unreasonable. After so many years of development, Liu Kun did not have more than two thousand cavalry with the support of the Iron Blood Army and Tuoba Xianbei, and this time in Nie County, Chu Yun did not see a few cavalry, if the enemy had cavalry, then where did they go?

"Governor, I also found this very strange. I asked a few surviving sergeants of the 7th Infantry Brigade, and it was said that the defense arranged by Cui Zhen was very perfect, and the wall of Nexian County was six meters high, so the difficulty of the assault can be imagined. We have experienced it for ourselves today, and if it weren't for the Governor, we would never have been able to break the city so quickly. Chu Yun nodded, and Guo Shuzi continued.

"However, the state army was able to break through the county in less time than we did, how did they do it? Unfortunately, we did not find the survivors who were stationed at the North Gate at that time. And what is even more strange is that I asked a few surviving people in Nea, and they told us that they encountered earth movement at home that day, and I suspect that those people took the running of a large number of cavalry as ground movement, and if this is true, then the enemy cavalry, absolutely more than 10,000 can be caused. So I went to examine a few generals of the Bingzhou army, and they told me a shocking news, they came with tens of thousands of cavalry, but they didn't see the true face of this army, only Wen Qiao knew, I went to ask Wen Qiao, this guy didn't say anything, it seems that there is a lot of article here. After Guo Shuzi finished speaking, Chu Yun took a deep look at him, this man who doesn't like to talk very much, he actually has such a careful mind, it seems that he has really made great progress.

Guo Shuozi's analysis is indeed very reasonable, it seems that he can only go to see Wen Qiao, when Chu Yun came to the prison, Wen Qiao was tied up like a zongzi, Chu Yun called a few iron-blooded army sergeants who temporarily served as jailers to ask, it turned out that this Wen Qiao wanted to commit suicide, so he could only tie him up, Chu Yun didn't care, if this guy wasn't useful, he would have killed so many people and killed him alive.

"We're meeting again. "Chu Yun asked people to untie the ropes on Wen Qiao's body, with Chu Yun here, it was difficult for Wen Qiao to die. Wen Qiao refused to open his mouth despite what Chu Yun said, if it weren't for Chu Yun's cultivation being too low to use his divine sense, Chu Yun would have wanted to pry his head open directly.

"Wen Sima is really a man, he can kill tens of thousands of people of the Great Jin Dynasty without blinking an eye, he is really a good official, if there are more good officials like Wen Sima in the Great Jin, the Hu people are probably very happy, I don't know if Wen Sima can see those innocent and tragic people when he closes his eyes every day, of course, Wen Sima may not care. But there is one person that Wen Sima may care about, Liu Kun, this brute in human skin, I will definitely bring his head over to pay tribute to the people of Niexian. Although I don't know where the cavalry that came with you came from, I guess it should be the cavalry of the Xianbei people, don't worry, not only Liu Kun, Tuoba Xianbei and I also want them to pay for their blood debts. To tell you the truth, my men and horses have reached more than 100,000 people, the plans of the Huns have gone bankrupt, and tens of thousands of troops in Pingjin Valley have been defeated by me, I will take 100,000 horses to kill in Jinyang, and then I will let the officials and lords in Jinyang City also taste what happened to the people of Niexian. After Chu Yun finished coaxing and deceiving, he was about to leave. Chu Yun's words were true and false, this was his last attempt, Wen Qiao moved his lips, clenched his fists tightly, and finally did not speak, Chu Yun left with regret.

Although he recovered Nexian County, the matter is far from over, let him now take his troops to attack Jinyang, it is a fool's dream, but Chu Yun must make Liu Kun pay the price, this price is Qi County and Wu County in Taiyuan County, these two places threaten the back of Shangdang County and Pingjingu, now no matter why Liu Kun wants to deal with the Iron and Blood Army, Chu Yun is not ready to hand over the weakness to Liu Kun again.

After occupying Qi County and Wu County, the traffic between Shangdang County and Xihe County will no longer be limited to Pingjin Valley, and the Iron Blood Army can completely bypass Qi County and Wu County, and both sides of the boundary mountain can be passed, which can solve the big problem of the Iron Blood Army's strategic embarrassment. Unlike now, the north side of Jieshan belonged to Liu Kun, and the two counties could only communicate through Pingjin Valley.

On the one hand, Chu Yun sent someone to write a stern letter of inquiry to Liu Kun, and on the other hand, he sent someone to Chang'an to complain to the imperial court, Chu Yun did not want to completely lose his righteousness now. Then, after the 11th Infantry Brigade and the newly built Temporary 3rd Brigade and 4th Temporary Brigade arrived in Nie County, they immediately led the Iron Cavalry, the 5th Cavalry Brigade, and the 8th Cavalry Brigade towards the two counties.

Within half a month, Chu Yun successfully broke through the two counties, and Chu Yun, the officials appointed by Liu Kun, all rushed back, but Liu Kun didn't make any moves, as if nothing had happened. But since this is the case, Chu Yun is not polite, Chu Yun asked the temporary third brigade to be stationed in Qi County, and the temporary fourth brigade to be stationed in Wu County, he happened to make a big circle and returned to Xihe County.

The combined population of the two counties was only 10,000 people, and Liu Kun had already ordered the population of Bingzhou to be moved to the vicinity of Jinyang, so Chu Yun was not particularly disappointed. Chu Yun really couldn't understand why Liu Kun had tens of thousands of troops and didn't resist. Chu Yun didn't know that the tens of thousands of cavalry belonged to Shi Le, but since Liu Kun's Bingzhou army had indeed attacked Shangdang County, Chu Yun would definitely not be polite. Now that the relationship between Chu Yun and Liu Kun is no longer possible, it is impossible to return to the past, and another one has been added to the list of enemies of the Iron Blood Army.

Chu Yun was very indignant at the incompetence of the Feng Cheng family, Huang Kai went to Pingyang and found out a lot of news for Chu Yun. Feng Chengjia, the captain of the Supervision Division, was so incompetent that he didn't notice such a big thing, you must know that Jinyang was infiltrated by the Supervision Department like a funnel, and Chu Yun was determined to take him down.

In addition, the tens of thousands of cavalry that disappeared also attracted Chu Yun's attention, but some things could only be implemented after the Hun army retreated.

After Chu Yun arrived at Lishicheng, he found that the situation in Xihe County was very bad, although Zhongyang City was as stable as Mount Tai under the leadership of Zhang Tong, although Lishicheng and Lin County were attacked but there was no big problem, but the other counties were very bad, and even Yuanyin County was breached, and the two thousand county soldiers and thousands of Han people and those who had families to join the Iron Blood Army were slaughtered cleanly, and the entire Xihe County was disturbed by the Hun cavalry.

But these losses are within Chu Yun's tolerance, and what annoys Chu Yun the most is that this group of Huns has destroyed a lot of grain planted in Xihe County, which has greatly delayed Chu Yun's plan, how can he send troops without food? If it weren't for the fact that there was still a lot of grain in Shangdang County, the iron-blooded army might collapse because of this, this Liu Wei played too hard. However, Chu Yun had no way to deal with him, Chu Yun would never be able to defeat Liu Ji's army in a head-on duel, so he could only wait for the other party to show his flaws or the other party to take the initiative to retreat.

Just when Chu Yun could only wait in Lishi City, and Liu Wei was showing off his military talent to the fullest, something big happened to the other main army of the Xiongnu army.

Liu Yao's army besieged Guo Mo, the Hanoi Taishou appointed by Liu Kun, Guo Mo ran out of grain and grass and pretended to surrender to Liu Yao, and gave his family to Liu Yao as a hostage, Liu Yao believed Guo Mo and sent him grain and grass. Who knew that Guo Mo got the food, and closed the surrounding city gates to defend it. Liu Yao became angry, sank Guo Mo's wife and children into the river and continued to attack Guo Mo. Guo Mo thought that Xinzheng defected to Xingyang to guard Li Ju, and Li Ju sent his nephew Guo Yu to meet Guo Mo, but there were few soldiers and he did not dare to move forward.

In history, Liu Kun once sent Xianbei cavalry to rescue Guo Mo, and after Guo Mo took refuge in Xingyang Taishou Li Ju, he repeatedly fought with Shi Le and became one of the pillars of the northern part of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. But after Chu Yun came, Guo Mo's fate was completely changed, Guo Mo was defeated under the watchful eye of Xingyang Taishou Li Ju's reinforcements, Guo Mo was divided by the angry Liu Yao's five horses, and a generation of good generals fell.

Immediately after Liu Yao's victory, he moved in to attack Beidi County in Sili Prefecture, which was an important hub between Chang'an and Liangzhou, and once cut off, the imperial court and Liangzhou lost contact. So Ju Yun could only command the army to rescue Beidi County, and the two sides fought a stalemate.

In a battle, Zhao Ran, a great traitor of the Jin Dynasty, was coincidentally shot to death by a crossbow arrow, Zhao Ran's army was in chaos, Ju Yun took advantage of the victory to pursue, and Liu Yao's whole army was defeated and retreated from Beidi County. For a while, the Chang'an Imperial Court won one after another, and there was a Zhongxing appearance, and Liu Cong was completely anxious. He finally gave the order, and Liu Ji's army began to retreat slowly.

Chu Yun took tens of thousands of cavalry to look for opportunities, the two sides fought dozens of times from Zhongyang County to Shilou, and the two sides won and lost each other, Chu Yun had no way to take the Huns, so he could only send them away.

In the bloody battles of the Iron and Blood Army, the time has come to the spring of 315 AD, the third year of Jianxing in the Western Jin Dynasty, the fifth year of Cheng Yuheng, and the fifth year of Jiaping of Han Zhao.

Just after Liu Wei withdrew his troops, the Xiongnu army attacking Tianjing Pass also slowly retreated, and before that, Shile's army had withdrawn, and the iron-blooded army finally ushered in a long-lost respite after several months of fighting.

Chu Yun rewarded him lavishly, among which Zhang Tong was the first to be credited, and Chu Yun appointed him as the county guard of Xihe County, becoming the second person under Chu Yun and Mo Han, the county guard of Shangdang County who had been promoted before that. Of course, Chu Yun did not have the right to appoint county-level figures, but the Iron Blood Army was as self-contained as Tietong, so Chu Yun's appointment was a holy decree. This made the civil and military generals in the Iron Blood Army very happy, because everyone almost despaired of the imperial court, and Liu Kun's massacre of Niexian was the main reason why the Iron Blood Army completely lost their reverence for the imperial court. Of course, because there were no particularly powerful family lords within the Iron Blood Army, Chu Yun's appointment did not cause any fluctuations.

As for the rest of the generals, they need to wait for Chu Yun's military reform to be completely implemented before they are appointed, and the officers and men of the iron-blooded army have begun to take turns to rest, but Chu Yun, the commander, has been busy.
