At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

If the Han Dynasty continued to live on, the slightest hope would be gone, and it could not be said that it was Jia Xu, it could only be said that it was Wang Yun who contributed to all this.

He is too strong.

He was so stubborn that he didn't take everything seriously.

I didn't realize that the chaos in the world was only a matter of the last signal. As long as the last signal was a little bit, the princes could make the decisions they should make, and the world could make decisions.

Success is also Wang Yun, and defeat is also Wang Yun.

With his strong character, Wang Yun let the ambitious princes blow up the immature daisy of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Xian Liu Xie, who was not yet 13 years old, just came out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth again.

So the general trend of the world is no longer irreversible.

And this matter, someone Guo also soon found out.

Everyone in the world knows about it.

Chapter 273 .270 Two Endeavoring Guo Peng and Fleeing Lu Bu (Revised)

Less than a month after learning the news of Dong Zhuo's death, Guo Peng got the news again that Wang Yun had died and Dong Zhuo's remnants had entered Chang'an to control the emperor.

He knew that the Han Dynasty had once again been reduced to a puppet controlled by warlords.

Now that Guo Peng learned about it, everyone in the world also learned about it.

Guo Peng didn't know how many people in the world were heartbroken when they heard the news, and how many people were heartbroken on the surface and secretly sneered in their hearts.

Anyway, Mr. Guo is definitely the latter, not the former.

Guo has the former under his command, such as Xun Yu, who is in charge of comprehensively rolling out the locust control strategy. He feels extremely hated for this, and scolds the Liangzhou rebellion for bringing disaster to the country and the people.

But the latter is definitely more.

More than that, get excited about it.

Because they know that now is the time to fight for the master they have chosen.

Chen Gong started jumping up and down to devise a plan for Guo to attack Yuan Shao and destroy Yuan Shao.

How to send troops, how to march, how to attack Yuan Shao's vital points, how to destroy it, how to occupy Jizhou and rule Jizhou, and then how to further pacify Youzhou and Bingzhou in Hebei.

In this way, you can relieve your worries and get a stable rear.

Then, after completing all this, you can seek to advance Luoyang and Chang'an westward, seize the emperor in your hand, and launch a political offensive against the world.

Chen Gong told Guo Peng with certainty that, judging from the current situation, Guo Peng should adopt a strategy of going north, then west, and then south.

Because the enemy is in the north, it must be eliminated first, so that there will be no worries.

The south is an ally, and we cannot turn our backs unless necessary.

Chen Gong didn't have a good impression of Yuan Shu. He felt that Yuan Shu was just a son of a son who got into this position by relying on his family background. He didn't make political achievements in Huainan, but made a living by plundering places. .

"If the general wants to fight against Yuan Shao, he must do so in the name of Yuan Shu, and once Yuan Shao is destroyed, the general will have to think for himself."

After learning about the turmoil in the capital, and the Han Dynasty's only ray of hope being cut off by the Liangzhou people again, Chen Gong seemed to have some kind of awareness, and vaguely made this suggestion to Guo Peng, which is still relatively far away now.

Guo Peng felt that Chen Gong was right.

Before Yuan Shao's downfall, he couldn't turn his face against Yuan Shu, at least he had to ensure superficial harmony.

As for the opportunity to turn against Yuan Shu, Guo Peng is in his hands.

However, the most important thing right now is still not the Northern Expedition, but to rectify the internal affairs, raise more food and grass, and build more ordnance.

Especially heavy ordnance.

Like trebuchets.

That's right, when he learned of Dong Zhuo's death, Guo Peng's Ordnance Research Institute in the surrounding valleys of Lu County finally restored the trebuchet.

Following the ideas given by Guo Peng, a group of skilled craftsmen finally restored the trebuchet that Guo Peng had been thinking about for several years.

The emergence of trebuchets can be said to have changed the military situation in the late Warring States period and contributed to the further development of the theory of the city defense system, but such an important weapon of the country was lost for a time.

Guo Peng really couldn't understand.

A large number of craftsmen can only study and restore together, and use their own simple technical means to restore the trebuchet through continuous attempts.

Because the earliest trebuchets were also created by skilled craftsmen using their simple thoughts and hard-working hands.

Now it is not creating, but restoring.

Guo Peng rewarded the two craftsmen who made the greatest contribution, and each rewarded ten catties of gold, which almost made them faint with joy.

In this way, Guo Peng announced that as long as he can develop tools that are beneficial to the country and the people, whether it is agricultural tools, handicraft tools or military tools, he can be rewarded.

Depending on the significance, the rewards are also different, which is equivalent to issuing a policy to encourage invention and creation.

After the policy was announced, the artisans immediately began to fight for gold with full confidence.

The completion of the trebuchet made Guo Peng full of confidence in his future marches and expeditions, and he began to pay attention to his team of craftsmen and the principle of confidentiality.

Guo Peng separated his personal guards and stationed here specially, and strictly protected the surrounding area, and at first he no longer allowed random entry and exit.

For craftsmen who have mastered the manufacturing method, a painter is sent to draw and hand it over to the guards' personal soldiers. When entering and exiting, they need to check the image of the human face and report their hometown, identity and position before they can enter and exit.

All the family members moved to Lu County, and a special area was designated for them to live in, and people were sent to protect and monitor them day and night.

If there is any abnormal phenomenon, Guo Peng must be notified as soon as possible.

How can our intellectual property be stolen by others casually?

Mr. Guo still attaches great importance to protecting his own intellectual property rights.

Of course, it doesn't matter what other people's things are, and what should be violated is still to be violated.

A certain Guo made great efforts to prepare for the next war. At the same time, Lu Bu broke through Wuguan and fled to Yuzhou, where he found Yuan Shu.

Lu Bu generously offered Dong Zhuo's head to Yuan Shu, bragging about his achievements and expressing his desire to join Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was very happy to get Dong Zhuo's head. Just as he was about to agree to Lv Bu, the news came that Lv Bu's subordinates were looting rich families and people everywhere.

Probably because they were so hungry that they started looting and looting Yuan Shu's territory as soon as they arrived, using their traditional skills.

Yuan Shu was very dissatisfied at that time.

In my territory, only I can be a robber!Who do you think you are? !

Yuan Shu drove Lu Bu away.

Lü Bu had no choice but to lead his troops to the north, passing through Chenliu County and crossing the Yellow River to join Yuan Shao.

Who made the two brothers famous?

Lu Bu passed through Chenliu County and met Zhang Miao.

Zhang Miao likes to make friends, and he is very friendly to Lv Bu, who once helped the evildoers but "woke up in time" and turned his merits into crimes. He personally met Lv Bu and hosted a banquet for him.

Lu Bu couldn't help sighing, saying how he was treated by Yuan Shu, and feeling that Zhang Miao was a good person. Before parting, Lu Bu held Zhang Miao's hand, and the two bid farewell.

Afterwards, Lu Bu left Chenliu Commandery and led his troops across the Yellow River to Jizhou, Hebei Province, to join Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was having a headache at the time.

The reason is very simple. Although Gongsun Zan had no time to go south because of the bloody battle with the old sect members, Yuan Shao himself also offended Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Yellow Turban, because of the previous battle with Gongsun Zan.

Therefore, Zhang Yan, who has millions of Heishan Yellow Turbans, became enemies with Yuan Shao. Zhang Yan continued to send troops to attack Yuan Shao and harass his counties.

The magistrates of the prefectures and counties kept complaining to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao had no choice but to send troops to crusade against the Black Mountain Army, and fought many times. Although he killed many Black Mountain Army, his own losses were not small.

When he was worried that he did not have enough generals, Lu Bu came.

At this time, Zhang Yan, the leader of the Yellow Turban in Heishan, led [-] elite soldiers and [-] cavalry to attack Changshan. Yuan Shao asked Lu Bu to join him in fighting against Zhang Yan.

With Yuan Shao's army leading the formation, Lu Bu was able to display his ability in riding and fighting. He often rode a good horse named Chitu, and dozens of people who were close to his command, such as Cheng Lian and Wei Yue, rode against Zhang Yan's army on horseback. .

Because he is very brave and has superb riding skills, and a group of people under his command are also very skilled in riding skills, Zhang Yan's army can't stop him.

He went to charge three or four times a day, and charged with the soldiers under his command. He galloped vertically and horizontally unstoppably, and his archery skills were so superb that the cavalry of the Black Mountain Army could not defeat him.

Because of his personal bravery and elite soldiers, Lu Bu was able to repel the Black Mountain Army every time, helping Yuan Shao gradually turn the tide of the battle.

Under Lu Buduo's hard work, after more than ten days of continuous fighting, Yuan Shao finally defeated Zhang Yan's army, expelled the remnants of the Black Mountain Army from Changshan, and drove them back to the deep mountains.

So Yuan Shao, together with Wenwu under his command, praised Lu Bu's bravery.

274 Chapter 270

In this era, being able to charge into battle with soldiers is the limit of a general's personal bravery.

Lu Bu charged into the battle with the soldiers several times, and he was able to retreat every time, which shows how brave and invincible Lu Bu is.

When Lu Bu was praised by Yuan Shao, he immediately lost his mind, and soon became arrogant.

He indulged his soldiers to plunder rich households and Li Shu to satisfy the selfish desires of his own army, and did not take Yuan Shao seriously.

This is a typical ignorance of good and evil.

Yuan Shao was very dissatisfied with Lu Bu's actions. He was just about to use him to deal with Gongsun Zan, but found that Lu Bu was even more harmful than Gongsun Zan.

I can't stay anymore, if I stay, sooner or later Lu Bu will die in disaster.

Find a way to drive Lu Bu away, or even kill him!

Yuan Shao thought so, so he called Feng Ji and Xu You, his two most trusted confidants.

The two were full of bad things, and Yuan Shao felt that they would definitely be able to come up with a solution that was both sinful and beneficial.

The two were summoned by Yuan Shao, and after hearing what Yuan Shao said, they learned that Yuan Shao was very afraid of Lu Bu, and wanted to find a way to kill Lu Bu, and at worst, he would drive him away, and he could not be allowed to stay on his side to do good fortune and harm the place. up.

Xu You and Feng Ji looked at each other, then fell into deep thought.

"It's not difficult for the general to deal with Lu Bu. Lu Bu is brave, but he is actually a reckless man. Although the combat power under his command is quite strong, it is not difficult to destroy him."

Feng Ji stroked his beard: "The general just needs to treat him coldly, and make a gesture of mobilizing troops, and Lu Bu will naturally find that the general is dissatisfied with him.

Considering that the general has many soldiers and horses and his own has few, he will definitely feel worried, and he will probably take the initiative to ask to go. The general only needs permission to force Lu Bu to leave.

If the general wants to destroy Lv Bu, he can set up an ambush on the road. Lv Bu is a warrior. If he can't find out the general's thoughts, then Lv Bu can be killed, and the general's goal has been achieved. "

Yuan Shao nodded, and felt that what Feng Ji said made sense, so he decided to follow suit.

But at this moment, Xu You interrupted Yuan Shao's actions.

"Lü Bu is brave and good at fighting, and now he is a disaster under my command. If that is the case, why can't I send this disaster to others to make up for the lack of the general not being able to send troops in person?"

What Xu You said made Yuan Shao a little strange, not knowing what Xu You meant.

"What strategy does Ziyuan teach me?"

Yuan Shao asked.

"General, Lu Bu is brave and good at fighting. Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Wei Xuchenglian and others under his command are very knowledgeable about soldiers and are brave. Therefore, although his subordinates are few, they can win every battle. However, Lu Bu does not know loyalty and is arrogant and arrogant. This is the general's trouble. , why not transfer this trouble to the general's enemies?"

A conspiratorial smile appeared on Xu You's face.

"What is Ziyuan referring to?"

"Guo Zifeng."

As soon as Xu You said the name, Yuan Shao suddenly showed a very interested look, and Feng Ji also looked at Xu You.

"Guo Zifeng and Gongsun Zan came from the same division, the general has always been worried that Guo Zifeng would send troops to support Gongsun Zan and attack Jizhou, and the general's career would be unstable and very dangerous.

Now that Gongsun Zan was tied down by the old clan members and the Black Mountain Army retreated, the second of the three threats had gone. Now the general only needed to deal with Guo Zifeng's threat to gain a breathing space.

The general can seize the opportunity to raise food and grass, expand troops, stabilize the situation, make friends with Karasuma, and then send troops to Youzhou, cooperate with the clan members Jiubu and Karasuma people, wipe out Gongsun Zan, and avoid worries about the future.

At that time, both Youzhou and Jizhou will belong to the general, and Bingzhou will also be at your fingertips. The general will bring the power of the three states in Hebei, with [-] troops, go south to cross the Yellow River, and compete with Guo Zifeng. Isn't this what the general wants to do? ? "

Yuan Shao nodded, agreeing with Xu You's analysis, Feng Ji also nodded, waiting for Xu You's next words.

"You mean, let Lu Bu lead his troops south to attack Guo Peng?"
