Chapter 112: Planning for a Resurgence
In 328 AD, the Eastern Jin Dynasty was the third year of Xianhe, the former Liang Jianxing was 16 years, the Cheng Han Yuheng was 18 years, the former Zhao (Xiongnu Han Kingdom) was the eleventh year of Guangchu, and the first year of Zhao Taihe.
This year is the most turbulent year on the land of the Central Plains since ten years ago, ten years ago the Western Jin Dynasty perished, Liu Kun perished, the Iron Blood Army and almost all the forces in the world fought a bloody battle, that time the entire north was a mess, the number of deaths exceeded millions, the whole world was shocked by the combat effectiveness of the Iron Blood Army, the Iron Blood Army single-handedly resisted almost all the forces in the north at that time, and stubbornly resisted for several years, the entire Yongzhou, Bingzhou was beaten into ruins, although the hundreds of thousands of troops of the iron-blooded army died and surrendered, but it dealt a heavy blow to the Huns, the Qian, Qianghu and even all the Hulu, the Hu people at least killed and wounded hundreds of thousands of people, the combat effectiveness of the Han people shocked everyone, so even the Huns have been much better to the Han people in recent years. I have to say that the dignity of the nation is fought out, and it is not something that can survive by groveling.
After the defeat of the Iron Blood Army and the Hu people, Zu Ti ushered in the climax of his life, this boy who smelled the rooster danced back then, took over the mission of his best friend Liu Kun, and almost single-handedly carried the banner of the Northern Expedition, in his most glorious time, once recovered a large area of territory south of the Yellow River, and made Shi Le dare not invade the south.
However, the Eastern Jin Dynasty is the same as his predecessor the Western Jin Dynasty, it is a hopeless mess, after Zu Ti successfully recovered a large territory, the Jin Yuan Emperor, that is, the former Langya King Sima Rui, actually sent his cronies Dai Yuan as the general of the expedition to the west, the governor of Si Yanyu and the military of the six states of Yongji, Sizhou Thorn History, out of the town of Hefei, this is simply the most undesirable Bichi peach picking, Zu Ti saw this scene, completely cool, and died of grief. In fact, this Dai Yuan is not a person without ability, but having ability does not mean that it is the most suitable, at that time, all the troops in Jiangbei were Zu Li's army, and your emperor suddenly inserted into a supreme leader of the Outsiders Party, which really has no other role than making trouble.
At this time, the Eastern Jin Dynasty has completely entered the beautiful era of the family's door valve self-amusement, first Wang Dun's rebellion for two years, and then Su Jun's ancestral covenant rebellion began again, this ancestral covenant is Zu Li's younger brother, and he also hooked up with his brother Shi Le who has been fighting all his life, and I don't know if Zu Ti will run out of the coffin angrily if he knows what his brother has done. Of course, the small number of civil unrest cannot be counted.
Now the rebellion of the ancestors of the Soviet army is in full swing, the rebellion of the two is very smooth, in order to eliminate the Zhongshu Ling Yu Liang, who has a bad relationship with the family gatekeeper, the major families in the south have watched coldly, the capital of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Jiankang was lost, Su Jun's army entered Taicheng, and the whole south is like boiling water, preparing for a new round of drastic changes.
At the same time, the two Zhao states on the Central Plains also began their largest battle for hegemony, Liu Yao is not a big general among the Huns, even if he is the emperor, he beat Shi Hu to the ground in this year, once in Hedong, once in Luoyang to fight the arrogant Shi Hu completely lost his temper. However, it was precisely because of the two big victories that Liu Yao lost his prudence, and his old mistakes were committed again, and he began to be arrogant. Liu Yao is a standard person who is strong when he is strong, and weak when he is weak, and he is cautious and cautious when dealing with strong enemies. Dealing with weaker opponents, he was arrogant, because of this reason, he attacked Chang'an back then, and I don't know how many times he was pitted by the weak Chang'an army. But in the face of the weak chicken in Chang'an of the Western Jin Dynasty, even if he loses, it is a big deal to start all over again, but in the face of hungry wolves like Shi Le and Shi Hu, the result of arrogance is terrible.
In this environment, Chu Yun, who had been in seclusion in Shangdang County for several months, was ready to leave the mountain.
"Dumb, our master and apprentice will be separated for a long time this time, you have to practice the skills I taught you, if there is fate, we will meet again, remember, don't trust others easily, and don't easily expose your identity. Chu Yun commanded a young man with a simple face but a very smart eye, this young man was a dumb cow.
"Yes, master, you should come to me early, I will miss you. Niu Dumb opened his mouth and said, he is no longer dumb, Chu Yun personally took action to connect the broken bones in his throat, compared to Chu Yun's first few apprentices or half apprentices in this world Guo Yong, Zhao Hu, Mao Yu, Ran Liang, Cui Zhen and others, Niu Dumb is undoubtedly lucky, he was taught by Chu Yun a kind of martial arts that he spent ten years researching - "Hundred Flowers Kill", this is an extremely magical martial art, the name is Chu Yun borrowed the name of Huang Chao's I Blossom Hundred Flowers Kill, and the domineering of this martial art can also be seen from the name. This is a martial art that is very suitable for the battlefield, and it is a peerless martial art that is smelted with Chu Yun's "God of War Technique" and fused with his own murderous aura.
It's not that his power is stronger than Chu Yun's other martial arts, but this martial art can exert characteristics that cannot be achieved compared to peerless divine skills on the battlefield of this world. The operation of this martial art is not driven by internal force, the aura of heaven and earth in this world is not high, even a ground-level martial artist like Xiaoxian Weng Ge Hong can't exert much strength, and the earth-level martial artist in the Xianwu Continent has the power of heaven and earth cracking in every move, but in this world, even the aura can't be voided, and the curtain lotus flower can't be revealed. Therefore, the martial artists of this world cannot continuously absorb the aura of heaven and earth from their surroundings, and they cannot achieve an endless stream of internal force.
And the internal strength of another force can't be endless even in the Xianwu Continent, let alone in this world. There are not many people with that kind of innate divine power, Chu Yun has been in this world for so long, and he has seen one, Ran Liang is born with divine power, but this martial art newly founded by Chu Yun can make a person form the effect of innate divine power the day after tomorrow, and can fight continuously on the battlefield, isn't this effect amazing? And with more and more killings, and the murderous aura getting stronger and stronger, this person who practices "Hundred Flowers Killing" will have higher and higher martial arts, and his moves will become stronger and stronger, isn't it desperate?
This martial art can absorb the murderous energy around oneself, and then transform it into power through one's own body, supplying one's continuous killing, which is a whimsical idea like a wasteless cycle.
But this world is what Chu Yun can do, because only by cultivating the God of War to a certain level and being able to completely control his body can he cultivate. This is much more difficult than the Sunflower Treasure Book If you want to practice this skill, you must first go from the palace, the Sunflower Treasure Book can do it as long as you are ruthless to yourself, but this martial art is not, this alone will eliminate almost all the people in the world. For a top-notch foreign kung fu like "God of War Technique", it is estimated that Chu Yun himself will be able to do it in the whole world, after all, this is not a high-level martial arts world.
And of course, Niu Dumb doesn't have this qualification, but it's Chu Yun who took a shortcut for him and washed him into the essence, not Chu Yun boasted, the whole world can help others to wash the essence and cut the essence, it is he himself who estimates, otherwise the martial artists of this world would not have made so many derivatives of divine power with obvious defects. Chu Yun has washed the essence of Mao Yu, Ran Liang and Niu Dumb until now, and Chu Yun has some regrets that he did not wash the essence of Zhao Hu, Guo Yong and others, otherwise their martial arts will definitely be higher, at least not so easy to die.
Even if the cow mute was washed and cut down by Chu Yun himself, it was not possible to practice. However, this martial art is also very harmful to people, and it is necessary to have a master who understands the use of murderous qi and protects the cultivator's mind with stronger strength, so that the cultivator can practice this martial art. Therefore, if there is no one to protect, then the person who practices this exercise will definitely go mad and suffer unspeakably, as the saying goes, murderous qi penetrates the body, and murderous qi is a special force that the human body cannot bear, and generally cannot bear it at all. However, it is not impossible to solve it, that is, if this person has extremely strong divine sense and mental power, then he can protect his own mind, for example, Chu Yun can only succeed in cultivation because he can protect himself, but where in this world is there a martial artist who cultivates divine sense and mental power except Chu Yun?
Therefore, this exercise has become Chu Yun's unique skill in this world, and it is impossible for anyone to practice it except for Chu Yun and the people taught by Chu Yun. And even if Niu Dumb practiced this martial art later, he still had a big flaw, and every few years, Chu Yun needed to personally help clean up the evil qi and dead qi in his body, and it could be seen from the name that these two things were not good things.
However, Chu Yun has been studying a martial art that uses evil qi as a means of attack, evil qi is a kind of divine sense, and being able to attack with divine sense is a means of a heaven-level martial artist, Chu Yun of course feels that the sooner he learns it, the better.
In addition, as long as the martial arts of "Hundred Flowers Killing" are practiced, life and death are in the hands of Chu Yun, Chu Yun has experienced a betrayal, and it is impossible for his subordinates to trust him unconditionally, even if it is the closest person, Chu Yun will keep a hand.
The cow was dumb and left, Chu Yun had regained his mobility after more than half a year of repair, although Chu Yun's body was far from the immortal body of white bones and raw flesh that cultivated the "Immortal Gong", but Chu Yun's feet were just broken tendons, and they were not regrown, so with the use of the God of War technique, they could be recovered. What really made Chu Yun uncomfortable was his right hand, the real Qi root of his right hand was cut off, and even if it was an immortal skill, it was difficult to repair. Moreover, Chu Yun Chu Yun's enemies all knew that he was missing his right hand, if Chu Yun went out with one arm, no matter how his appearance changed, it would attract the attention of the enemy, so he had to find a way.
Chu Yun was indeed ruthless enough to himself, he found some skilled craftsmen and welded an iron for himself, the iron frame and his bones were welded together, ordinary people just think about it and their scalps are numb, but Chu Yun's face did not change, and he also asked these craftsmen to get a pair of iron gloves for his right hand. Although this right hand can only be used for some simple snatches, it is enough to deceive most people's eyes.
In fact, at that time, Chu Yun's enemies cut off his right hand, because they were afraid that Chu Yun would recover his strength, after all, Chu Yun needed his right hand whether he used a sword or a long lance, and Chu Yun had never shown the ability of his left hand. But they all underestimated Chu Yun too much, Chu Yun was a swordsman, and the left-handed sword was just a basic skill.
"Father-in-law. Chu Yun walked back to the No. 2 base he built, although Long Yi of the No. 1 base betrayed him, and Long San of the No. 3 base heard that he was dead, and he has been leading people to fight against the Qi tribe, and died in the battle a few years ago, but Long Yi of the No. 2 base has firmly completed the task he assigned.
Long Er's stability also gave Chu Yun a place to settle down temporarily. However, after all, ten years have passed since the Iron Blood Army, although Chu Yun has the heart to inquire about his old subordinates, but there is still not much news, but he heard the news of his old acquaintance Wen Qiao, this guy was Liu Kun's descendant back then, and he was captured and imprisoned by himself for several years, and ran to the south after the defeat of the Iron Blood Army, I heard that the mix is not bad.
As for the others, it is not good news that can find out the news exactly, the Wei general of the Six Davids Mansion back then, Chu Yun has been able to determine that Zhou Bin, the left guard general of the SS, died in Pingjingu, and he is also the last iron-blooded army to be eliminated in formation, and they also persevered until the last moment. And Zhao Hu, the general of the right guard of the SS, was captured by Shi Husheng when he led the army to rescue Zhou Bin, and it is estimated that he was more than lucky.
Guo Yong, the Wei general of Pingxi Wei, was killed in Beidi County, Cui Zhen, the Wei general of the Imperial Nuwei, was missing, and Fang Dashan, the Wei general of the Great Wall Wei, led the Great Wall Wei to fight in Xihe County and was beheaded by Liu Yao. As for the other generals at the level of division commanders, all of them have lost news, and as for whether there are any alive, no one knows except themselves.
And Wenchen is much better than the generals who have almost no news, Zhang Tong, Lin Yu, Fang Qing and Chu Chenglin died one after another, but fortunately, Shi Le did not implicate their families, but moved their families to Xiangguo. The other Wang Lian, Ma Liang, Fan Gao, Li Jin, Gao Liangcheng, Lu Wang and others were either captured by the Xiongnu or captured by the Qian, and they were all captured. But fortunately, none of them were in danger of life, only Mo Han, the most important adviser to Chu Yun, was missing, and even his family members were missing, which also became a mystery.
In addition, Chu Yun's wives and concubines were not very good, and Su Jin was nowhere to be found. Lu Wen died in front of him, and Wang Yunyan was nowhere to be found. And the concubine of the Ma family was openly married by Shi Hu, although Chu Yun didn't have much affection for her, and didn't even feel much, but the hatred of killing his father and taking his wife, how could Chu Yun not care. When Long Er told Chu Yun the news he had collected, Chu Yun's face did not change at all, but the murderous aura in Chu Yun's eyes could not be hidden, and Chu Yun would never let them go.
Chu Yun wants to rise quickly, don't think about relying on the previous forces, after all, the iron-blooded army has disappeared, and although there are many forces in the world, there are few who are really promising. Hou Zhao, that is, Shi Le's subordinates have a lot of opportunities, but Shi Le is a generation of heroes comparable to Cao Mengde, although his first strategist Zhang Bin hiccuped, but Shi Le should not be underestimated. In addition to not getting rid of his nephew Shi Hu in his life, he basically hasn't made any big mistakes, so it's really difficult to get out of his head under his nose. Chu Yun has been suspecting that the defeat of the Iron Blood Army has nothing to do with Zhang Bin all these years, although there is no evidence, Chu Yun has always felt this way. And Hou Zhao is thriving day by day, there is no more of himself, and there is no less of himself, and he is a strong soldier.
And the once very powerful Xianbei is not to mention, they were beaten by Shi Le like dogs in the north and licked their wounds, and even the strongest Tuoba Xianbei is still split. Therefore, these forces don't need to think about it, they don't have the ability to go south for a while.
As for the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Qianliang Zhang family, there is no need to think about it, the two forces are basically in power now, Chu Yun, a black household with no identity, will not be accepted by them at all, besides, even if they are accepted, they will not let you hold the power, and even a loyal person like Zu Ti cannot be trusted, let alone Chu Yun.
And the Cheng Han who occupies Sichuan and the Qiu Chi of the Gansu generation don't have to think about it, both forces were established by the Di people, but they don't exclude the Han people, but they are all small and widowed, and their royal relatives can't arrange it, let alone outsiders, unless you can spend decades and slowly boil up your qualifications, but Chu Yun obviously doesn't have that effort.
Therefore, Chu Yun is going to take refuge in his sworn enemy the former Zhao regime of the Huns this time, it is estimated that the Huns have never heard a song, the song is called "When I Grow Up, I Will Be You", it is estimated that if they hear it, they will definitely empathize. Back then, they went to bully the Chang'an regime of the Western Jin Dynasty when they had nothing to do, and the one that beat them was called a hearty one, and they played Chang'an in the palm of their hands, and they lived a beautiful life. But after they occupied Chang'an and moved the capital to Chang'an, they became the ones who were bullied.
Later Zhao's Shi Le was eyeing the tiger, the Zhang family of Qianliang was rubbing their hands, the Yang family of Qiu Chi Guo and the Li family of Cheng Han were also ready to pounce and take a bite at any time, and the Huns didn't know why they suddenly got mixed up to this point, that is, the remnants of the Jin Dynasty in Guanzhong and the small forces such as Qian, Di, Qiang, and Ba did not let themselves worry. Liu Yao, the emperor, is almost the same as Sima Ye, and he is worried, but he is better than Sima Ye, that is, his military talent is extraordinary, and he is in charge of power alone, and there is no power to contain him.
So Liu Yao barely maintained his rule for ten years, but this year, even Chu Yun, an outsider, could see that Shi Le was determined to destroy Liu Yao. Shi Le successively sent a large army to attack Liu Yao, although Liu Yao won successive battles, but Shi Le did not stop, which is the proof of Shi Le's determination.
In April of this year, Shi Hu, the prince of Zhongshan in Later Zhao, led 40,000 soldiers to march west from Yiguan to attack the east of Hedong in Former Zhao, and more than 50 counties should follow, and Shi Hu continued to attack Pusaka. Liu Yao had no choice but to lead the elite Chinese and foreign water and land armies to rescue Pu Han. Shi Hu was frightened and led his army to retreat, and Liu Yao pursued. In August, he caught up with Shi Hu in Gaohou and fought with Shi Hu, Shi Hu was defeated, his corpse was pillow for more than 200 miles, and Liu Yao captured hundreds of millions of military funds. Shi Hu fled to Chaoge, Liu Yao continued to pursue, and dug the river embankment to flood Shi Hu's army, and sent generals to attack Ji County and Hanoi County respectively.
But this time the battle did not dispel Shi Le's determination, and the successive victories made Liu Yao dizzy. Liu Yao actually besieged Luoyang with a large army, you must know that although Chang'an and Luoyang are not far away, Luoyang is broken, and Liu Yao's army cannot replenish grain and grass on the spot, which is a dangerous place militarily.
Former Zhao Emperor Liu Yao only cared about drinking and playing with his favored courtiers, and was not sympathetic to the soldiers. Some of the people around him advised him, but Liu Yao was angry, thinking it was a fallacy, and beheaded the admonisher. The attack on Luoyang at the front was not smooth, and it had been more than 100 days, and the officers and men of the troops were tired and slack.
Liu Yao's situation is simply that there is no food and grass inside and no reinforcements outside, as long as Shi Le commands the main force to attack Liu Yao, Liu Yao will definitely be defeated. The road from Luoyang to Chang'an is long, after Liu Yao's army is defeated, whether he can run back to Chang'an is very suspenseful, and when Liu Yao leaves only one Huangkou child prince Liu Xi, it is the best chance for Chu Yun to rise. As long as Liu Xi's trust can be obtained, the war potential of Qianzhao is still very large, and hundreds of thousands of people can still be put together, although it is a rabble, but it may not be able to resist Shi Le's attack, and when Shi Le retreats, Chu Yun holds the male army in his hand, and the credit is overwhelming, and he may not be able to do Cao Mengde's old things.
Chu Yun asked Long Er and his twenty men to continue to guard the secret base, if Chu Yun could kill back to Shangdang County, the things in this base would be useful, and after ten days, Chu Yun ran and killed several good horses before rushing to Chang'an, which was also the first time Chu Yun had come to this thousand-year-old capital for so many years.
