Since the defeat of the 100,000-strong army led by Dong Ribo, the flames of war have burned into the hinterland of Anyun.
Although the Iron Blood Army still has certain strength, it is still somewhat stretched in the face of the flanking attack by Wei Zeng's army in the east and Zhang Leng's army in the north.
The 30,000 cavalrymen of Di Xianlan in the north were transferred back, and the defensive troops in the west and south were also transferred to the front line.
A large number of strong men were recruited to replenish the army that continued to lose battles.
But in February and March, the Jiangnan army's offensive put the Iron Blood Army into a desperate situation.
Wei Zeng made up his mind this time to defeat the Iron-blooded Army in one fell swoop.
He didn't want to experience that hard battle again; Zhang Leng wanted to increase his strength, and the rich land of Anyun was the biggest temptation.
When I was young, Zhang Leng captured the land of Lao Qin, and now he has no intention of stopping.
So the war continued like this, with the iron-blooded army struggling hard and unable to escape the fate of losing ground; the three-pronged attack on Anyun's army also marched towards victory step by step in the long battle.
In July, Wei Zeng led 50,000 troops to attack the capital.
These 50,000 people are the elite of the Yanbei Rebel Army, including Guanshan Camp, Guchayi's cavalry and Sajiali's troops.
After receiving the news that Wei Zeng personally led an army to attack the capital, Xian Jinfei immediately sent Di Xianlan's cavalry to attack.
Bai Zhengran and Wu Deli also led the elite troops to cooperate in the battle.
After more than a year of fighting, the Iron-Blooded Army suffered heavy losses.
In particular, some units were wiped out by enemy formations, which greatly weakened the Iron-Blooded Army's combat effectiveness.
In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, veterans generally lead recruits.
Two-thirds are veterans and one-third are recruits.
This way the combat effectiveness of the army can be maintained stable for a long time.
But now, at a glance, the Iron-Blooded Army is almost entirely composed of new recruits who have never been in battle.
Bai Zhengheng's military soldiers and Wu Deli's old Qin soldiers suffered heavy losses in the defeat in Hexi, and now the battle has been greatly weakened.
In particular, Bai Zhengren's iron-blooded warriors are a great test of the army's coordination ability.
Now Bai Zhengzheng gave an order.
Some people picked up their spears, some raised their heavy crossbows, and some pulled out their swords and looked around.
The scene was very chaotic.
Bai Zhengzheng knew that the iron-blooded soldiers no longer existed, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers who could not be commanded was even worse than that of ordinary soldiers.
As a last resort, Bai Zhengheng also adopted ordinary army formation methods to reorganize the army.
However, Wei Zeng was not the only enemy of the Jagged Army.
Zhang Leng in the north and Zhang Feng in the south both marched towards the capital when Wei Zeng attacked.
The capital is the capital of the emperor, and occupying the capital is a great temptation for both Zhang Leng and Du Feng.
Although the Iron-Blooded Army numbered hundreds of thousands, their combat effectiveness was weakened and they were unable to resist the enemy's attack.
Di Xianlan's 30,000 cavalry were constantly fighting fires because of their high maneuverability.
But now Di Xianlan can no longer save the capital.
Just after Di Xianlan blocked Wei Zeng's 50,000-strong army, the 10,000-strong Tianjia Army led by Wuzhuang had already reached the gates of the capital.
Wuzhuang was Zhang Leng's personal guard and deeply trusted by Zhang Ling, so he was placed in the Tianjia Army to lead 10,000 troops.
This time Zhang Leng personally led the army to delay the northern iron-blooded army, while Wuzhuang led 10,000 people in a large circle to raid the capital.
Although there are a certain number of defenders in the capital, the corrupt situation has already made the people in the capital frightened.
Facing 10,000 enemy troops falling from the sky, the capital fell into chaos.
Hearing the cries of killing from all directions, Xian Jinfei felt despair in his heart.
The soldiers running around made him understand that the capital could no longer be defended.
The main force of the Iron-blooded Army has been sent to various defenses.
If the capital fails, the Iron-blooded Army will disappear from then on.
Just when Xian Jinfei was helpless, he saw Wendao and some cronies rushing to him.
"Mr.
Wendao, haven't you left yet?
The capital can no longer be defended.

It's useless for you to stay here.
It's better to escape for your own lives."
Xian Jinfei saw the question.
At this critical moment, he also brought his close associates with him.
He came to protect himself, and he was moved, but he also knew that the few cronies he had on him could not make much difference, so he persuaded him to leave.
"Shifeng City fell, and I fled to the Jingnan Army; the Jingnan Army was defeated, and I fled to the capital; the capital was captured by the Jiliu Mountain rebels, and I fled to the Iron Blood Army; the expedition to Yanbei failed, and I fled back to the capital.
Now the capital It has been lost.
Where can I escape?
I have been fleeing for two years.
If I die this time, I will die.
I will never escape again."
Wen Wen said firmly.
"If you don't run away, you won't run away.
Let us bear this disaster together.
I am the commander-in-chief of the Iron-Blooded Army.
It is my responsibility to protect the capital.
This time I will live and die with the capital.
If you die, you will die.
Do you have to be punished if you die?
Are the enemies laughing at you?"
Kenkinfei said.
Seeing Xian Jin's determination to fight to the death, the soldiers in the city expressed their solidarity with the capital, so hundreds of soldiers set up defenses in the government office to make the final resistance.
Wuzhuang led 10,000 Tianjia troops and successfully broke through the city wall of the capital.
The defenders in the city fled in all directions, and Wuzhuang led his men and horses to chase them everywhere.
There is no one living in the palace now.
There are only some old palace residents scattered around.
Wuzhuang easily occupied the palace.
Hearing that there was enemy resistance in a government office, Wuzhuang didn't pay attention and just sent a team of troops to besiege them.
Wuzhuang was very excited now.
He immediately sent the news of victory to Zhang Leng, and then prepared to welcome Zhang Leng to Beijing.
Xian Jinfei led hundreds of soldiers and defended desperately.
Just when Xian Jinfei was desperate and planned to commit suicide and die for his country, the rear of the people who attacked the government office was in chaos.
After Xian Jinfei saw the person clearly, there was a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
"General Di, are you coming to save me too?
But it's too late now, the capital has been lost."
Xian Jinfei said.
"Reporting to Commander Xian, after I received the news that the capital was under siege, I came here with a thousand people.
Fortunately, nothing happened to Commander Xian, otherwise Di Xianlan would never be able to live in peace in the future.
Now the capital cannot be defended.
Come on, please ask Marshal Xian to leave here with me," Di Xianlan advised.
"What's the use of leaving?
The capital has been lost, and the Iron-Blooded Army is finished.
It's just a matter of ridicule to survive."
Xian Jinfei said desperately.
"As long as Commander Xian is still alive, the morale of the Iron-Blooded Army will still be there.

The ashes of death can still be rekindled, not to mention that our mighty Iron-Blooded Army can't regroup."
Di Xianlan advised.
"Commander Xian, General Di is right.
We still have a chance to regroup.
A man can bend and stretch.
Commander Xian, don't hesitate."
Wen Wen also advised.
When Xian Jinfei heard what Di Xianlan and Wendao said, he sighed and left the capital with Di Xianlan.
Although it is difficult to regroup, if the Iron-blooded Army is allowed to die in his hands, then he will really be the sinner of the Iron-blooded Army.
As the capital was captured, the resistance forces in various places in Anyun also collapsed.
Only some generals who were very loyal to Kenjinfei followed Xianjinfei and fled to a remote place in the southwest with their remaining defeated soldiers.
More than ten days later, Zhang Leng came to the capital surrounded by a group of believers.
This time Zhang Leng was very happy.
The land of Old Qin that his army had completely occupied in the past six months had now captured the capital.
The dream of seizing the world and controlling the greatest power in the world seemed not far away.
Zhang Leng seems to be floating in the clouds now, and he is very optimistic about the future.
He didn't even know how he came to the palace and how he sat on this dragon throne.
Just looking at the envious looks of his subordinates, Zhang Leng felt very proud.
"Now that we have captured most of Anyun and the capital, it seems that God's will has come to my rescue, Zhang Leng.
Don't worry, dear friends, you are all heroes of the sect, and you are indispensable for the titles and titles."
Zhang Leng said generously.
When everyone saw Zhang Leng calling him "Aiqing", they still didn't know what Zhang Leng meant.
They all knelt down and called "Long live my emperor" and then suggested that Zhang Leng choose a day to ascend the throne.
"But we still have an alliance with Wei Zeng's Yanbei Army, and the Jiangnan Army in the south is also watching.
If the Lord proclaims himself emperor now, I'm afraid our alliance with Wei Zeng will break.
In case we are attacked by the Yanbei Army and the Jiangnan Army. , we may become the second Iron-Blooded Army."
Wan Tianquan was worried and stated it to Zhang Leng.
Zhang Leng had always been cheerful listening to the flattering words of his men, but now his expression suddenly dropped when he heard Wan Tianquan's words.
That's right, although the Strength Sect captured the capital, its strength is still not as good as that of the Yanbei Army and the Jiangnan Army.
It would be really troublesome to rashly proclaim emperor.
Many people expected that Zhang Leng would be granted a title after he ascended the throne, so when they heard Wan Tianquan's words, they all accused him of being disloyal.
"Wan Xiaozi is right.
Everything depends on strength.
We have just captured a large area of land, but our foundation is not yet solid and our strength is not as good as others.
If we proclaim ourselves emperor now, it will be difficult to withstand the enemy's attack.
Jiang Luqing under Wei Zeng It is still very difficult to deal with.
As powerful as the Iron-Blooded Army, Jiang Luqing defeated him with just a few words.
It's incredible.
Considering that Wei Zeng has not proclaimed himself emperor until now, there is a reason.
Wan Xiaozi is right, now is indeed not the time to proclaim emperor.
"Zhang Leng is not confused after all.
Decades of failure experience.
He understands that it is not easy to dominate the world.
Although he also wants to be emperor, he can only endure it for the time being.
Although others were unwilling, they did not dare to go against Zhang Leng's decision, but they just hated Wan Tianquan in their hearts.

After Zhang Leng made a decision, he decided to continue to capture Anyun's land, expand the territory of the Strength Sect, and then develop his strength and strive to train a powerful army as quickly as possible.
As for the alliance with Wei Zeng, Zhang Leng believes that it is necessary to maintain it.
After capturing the capital, the Yanbei rebels also quickly captured a large area of land.
Wei Zeng was also very proud.
He was determined to completely eliminate the Iron-Blooded Army and would never give the Iron-Blooded Army any chance to stand up.
However, after capturing the capital, the Power Sect was busy grabbing territory, completely ignoring the Iron-Blooded Army that fled to the southwest; and the army in Jiangnan could not be trusted.
Wei Zeng decided to personally lead his troops to eliminate the remnants of the Iron-Blooded Army.
Just when Wei Zeng made up his mind and planned to discuss with the generals, a fallen leaf floated in front of his eyes.
Wei Zeng's heart moved and he looked around.
He saw that the leaves on the trees were all yellow, and there were a lot of fallen leaves piled on the ground.
"Is it autumn already?"
Wei Zeng asked.
"Yes, general, it has been nine months since we arrived in Anyun last winter.
It is already August.
Maybe the general has been busy with military affairs and has not paid attention to the time."
Yu Chaogui replied.
"Time flies so fast."
Wei Zeng found that the surrounding scenery seemed very familiar.
When he thought about it carefully, he suddenly realized that the road in front of him was the same road he took when he went to Kansai a few years ago.
It's just that it was late autumn at that time, and now it's just the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Guanxi, Lian'er, Zhen'er, Shi Fengcheng, and Wen Di."
The shadows of several people appeared in Wei Zeng's heart, and suddenly a feeling of longing for home came to his heart.
"General, now we have captured most of the eastern and southern parts of Anyun.
Now, please let us know how we should act."
Yu Chaogui reminded Wei Zeng when he saw that he was stunned.
"We withdraw our troops.
After such a long period of fighting, the soldiers have worked hard.
Now that the Iron Blood Army has been defeated, it is time to take a good rest.
We have occupied a lot of land, and we should spend some time consolidating it."
Wei Zeng said .
Wei Zeng changed his mind and decided to take a short rest before marching to Kansai.
I originally wanted to find an opportunity to bring Feng Liansheng back, but I didn't expect that it would be two years since I was busy with military affairs.
So the Yanbei Rebel Army gave up chasing the remnants of the Iron Blood Army and began to consolidate the results of more than a year
