At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

No one understands the pain of being invaded by foreigners better than them, especially Liaoxi County, where the only way for Xianbei to go south is located.

The banner with the word "Wei" that was deliberately requested to be increased was caught in the eyes of many people and engraved in their minds.

Tian Yu, who was transferred by Guo Peng to be the prefect of Liaoxi County, personally led the county soldiers from Yangle County to welcome Guo Peng. Along the way, he watched the victorious soldiers showing off their might, the proud soldiers and the prisoners of war with their heads hanging down. extremely.

"Today we can see the grand occasion of Hanwu!"

Tian Yu sighed.

Lack of confidence, lack of unified management and planning, lack of training for soldiers, lack of food and weapons, all these lacks seriously affected the combat effectiveness of the Han army.

The Wei army, which had transcended the system of the Han army, possessed the combat effectiveness that the Han army should have, and wiped out the Xianbei people who were also not as good as before.

The large scale and the prosperity of the seizure have never been seen in decades.

The essence of Xianbei has been destroyed, and I don't know how long it will take to recover.

The lives of the border residents in Bingzhou and Youzhou will be guaranteed for a long time to come, which is enough to make them feel grateful to Guo Peng and Wei Guo.

The army took a rest around Yangle County, and Tian Yu offered food and drinks to Guo Peng. Guo Peng and Tian Yu drank together, talked about the affairs of Liaoxi County, and proposed that the main point of Tian Yu's work in the future was to repair the Great Wall.

"I will leave tens of thousands of prisoners of war for you. You have to repair all the dilapidated Great Wall gates in Liaoxi County, and send people to garrison them. As a rule, you should be responsible for the imperial court standards. In the future, I will definitely overhaul the Great Wall. Right now The Great Wall is not enough, I want to expand the Great Wall to Liaodong."

"Liaodong?"

Hearing Guo Peng's words, Tian Yu was very surprised: "Wei Gong means that in the future, Liaodong will..."

"That's natural. Gongsundu is just letting him go for the time being. When I have time, I will definitely attack Gongsundu. Now I just don't have the time and energy. Guorang, I want you to take care of Liaodong and help me prepare What a safe marching route.

Liaoze and Liaohe are both big obstacles on our way forward. I want you to plan a plan before the army marches, which can minimize the time spent on the entire marching route. Give me who you need and what you need. Tell me, I will do my best to help you. "

After getting this task, Tian Yu felt a little excited.

"Wei Gong has an order, how dare the subordinates refuse to obey?"

Resting in Yangle County for a day, Guo Peng ordered the whole army to set off again, heading west, along the road planned by Tian Yu, with food and water guaranteed along the way.

Tian Yu is indeed very capable. Guo Peng is very relieved to put such a person here and plan all the conditions for him to attack Liaodong.

After crossing the Great Wall pass and entering Liaoxi County within the Great Wall, the population began to increase, and the county town became denser. Guo Peng once again saw what it meant to "eating pots of pulp to welcome the master".

That grand occasion was indeed a masterpiece of caring people.

Along the way, the Li Shu who welcomed the triumphant return of the army cheered and encouraged the army. They also used stones, wood blocks, and rotten vegetable leaves to hit the captured Xianbei people. Head, dare not speak at all.

Walking outside a county town, the owners of the powerful landlord's family represented by the local area offered steaming meals, as well as a large amount of meat, which made the soldiers extremely satisfied.

However, Guo Peng and the generals were given special attention. They were invited into the county town to hold a grand banquet.

The flattering old faces look no different to Guo Peng's own face.

like a dog.

But ah, these days, even being a dog is not easy.

Does Li Shu and Qianshou have the qualifications to be a dog?

To be a dog requires money, land and means of production. You must be at least a powerful landlord before you are qualified to be a dog for others. If you have no money or power, you still want to be a dog?

What do people think of you?

Still want to be someone Guo's dog?

Take a pee and take a picture of yourself, do you deserve it?

wishful thinking!

You can only get money and food!Still a lot of money!Then!He is qualified to be Duke Wei's dog!

The old dogs stretched out their tongues and wagged their tails in front of Guo Peng to express their loyalty, their eyes were full of desire for power and the future, hoping that Guo Peng would reward them with one or two meaty bones called power if they were happy, so that they could You will be very happy, and it will all be worth it.

Guo Peng ate and drank, laughed loudly, and was very heroic. He dismissed the musicians and dancers, and recruited his soldiers to beat drum knives to add to the fun, and he was very contented.

And this strong power has deeply impressed all the "fathers and folks", and they can't afford to have any distracting thoughts.

The sharp blades, the passionate drums, and the loud shouts of the soldiers.

Guo's military prosperity is unprecedented in the world, and it is unique in the world.

To provide food, drink and entertainment for the army, and to deliver food and cloth to Guo Peng by carload after carload, anyway, all that can be given away.

So Guo Peng was overjoyed, and lightly threw down a bone or two as thanks.

For example, let a "children with excellent literary and military skills" in their family enter the army, for example, promote a depressed official to a higher level, and take up a post in the county or county government, for example, to help some people uphold justice , pull the side frame and so on.

If he really met someone with some ability, Guo Peng would ask him to see if he was really talented.

Needless to say, I really met one or two talented young people, so Guo Peng waved his hand—come with me, and go to my shogunate to exercise.

Then he left behind a pile of chicken feathers, and walked away gracefully.

For this, these people were so grateful that they shouted Wei Gong Wanfu, and sent Wei Gong away with tears in their eyes.

Then when I went to the next county, I painted a ladle like a gourd, and it was still the same.

chapter 504 five hundred and four

The power held by Guo Peng has a fatal attraction for these people.

They suffer from the fact that there is no way to advance, that there are people who have money and food but have no power, they don't want to be leeks, and they don't want to be suppressed.

So Guo Peng gave one or two people with the most money and effort to throw one or two meaty bones, let them chew comfortably, and violently wagged their tails.

Then lead more dogs to wag their tails together, obediently give whatever they want.

After enjoying in Liaoxi County, I came to Youbeiping County again to continue to enjoy, big fish and meat are served, gifts are received, and the prestige is soaring. The happier people are.

This kind of thing is very comfortable.

Guo Peng smiled and led everyone all the way to the west, eating and drinking all the way, but didn't spend a lot of his own money, and didn't pay any practical things. He left some innocuous things and left them for the locals After a little bit of conflict and dispute, just wait for them to bite the dog.

What Guo Peng really wanted was not the food and money they sent, but other more important things.

Unfortunately, now is not the time.

Right Beiping, Yuyang, Guangyang.

In Guangyang County, Guo Peng kindly met with Xian Yufu, governor of Youzhou, praised Xian Yufu's work and ability, drank with him at the same table, and pulled him up to dance. He also set a policy for Xian Yufu to vigorously develop the traffic conditions in Youzhou.

"Gongsun Du must be pacified, but the roads in Youzhou are difficult to travel, and it will cost too much for a large army to go. I want you to repair the roads and open up roads that are easy for marching during this period of time. Can you do it?"

Guo Peng raised his glass.

"Wei Gong has an order, and he must obey it!"

Xian Yufu held the cup in both hands and drank it down in one gulp.

Eating, drinking, and carrying with him, Guo Peng left Guangyang County, left Youzhou, and then entered Jizhou. The people waiting for Guo Peng in Jizhou were even more enthusiastic than Youzhou.

After all, for the people in several other states, Guo Peng is the leader, while for the people of Jizhou, Guo Peng is their monarch, the person who can decide their life and death.

People in several other states are completely kneeling and licking towards Guo Peng, but the people of Jizhou are not simply kneeling and licking towards Guo Peng.

The skill of that tongue is unbelievable.

Along the way, Guo Peng didn't let Guo Peng spend his own money. At least he spent some food in Youzhou. Because of the insufficient population, there are still many uninhabited areas and he needs to camp by himself.

When they arrived in Jizhou, the road traffic was in good condition, and these powerful landlords prepared hot meals for Guo Peng all the way, and they ate them when they arrived, without worrying about food consumption.

At this time, Zhao Yun also led his troops back from Bingzhou. They were not surprised at all. They licked together, and Guo Peng was very happy when he licked.

Victory, prestige, power.

These things are rising steadily, constantly strengthening, and slowly, quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes.

It cannot be seen or touched, but it is real.

is extremely important.

Guo needs these things extremely, and desires these things extremely.

Wuji Zhen is still one of them who shines brightly.

The whole county was mobilized to present gifts to Guo Peng for celebration, and there was a large supply of good wine and meat. Guo Peng was a little embarrassed to eat and hold it.

Last time, Zhen Yan, a member of their family, was made a county magistrate in Youzhou. This time, Guo Peng planned to send Zhen Yan's younger brother Zhen Yao to Yangzhou to be a county magistrate.

Give them an official position, big or small, so that these people can see the benefits and hope, so that they will continue to work hard for this unattainable dream.

At the beginning of July in the fourth year of Xingping, Guo Peng led the victorious army back to Yecheng and held a grand triumphant meeting.

Because this time Guo Peng made the Northern Expedition in the name of the Great General and the Duke of Wei on a Han chariot, so both Wei officials and Han officials were recruited, and everyone celebrated together, congratulating Guo Peng on his success in sweeping Xianbei and making an indelible contribution.

They celebrated the victory of this battle and the huge capture, as well as the stable strategic situation brought about by the victory of this war, and they praised Guo Peng vigorously, which made Guo Peng very tired of hearing it.

Xun You was arranged by Guo Peng to sit next to him, and he officially put Xun You on the staff desk, becoming one of the important officials of Guo Peng's military counselor. He will discuss military plans with him in the future, which greatly relieved the Yingchuan scholars.

In contrast, Xun Yu, who was also invited to the banquet, was forgotten in the corner, watching the brightly lit scene not far away, drinking glasses of wine without saying a word.

The political exiles around him also didn't say a word, they looked at the hot atmosphere there with extremely longing eyes, and all kinds of indescribable emotions arose in their hearts.

If I hadn't done that kind of thing and said that kind of thing back then, would the ending be different now?

Now will they also become a member of that brightly lit place, eating, drinking, dancing and singing?

Enjoy that glorious victory and be one of the beneficiaries of it, not in this place, sipping booze.

Xun Yu looked indifferent, drinking, eating, and turning a blind eye to everything around him, but not everyone can be as calm as him.

Where is the way forward?

they do not know.

All they know is that they have been abandoned by the family, and the family will find other ways to reconcile with Guo Peng, just like Xun You replaced Xun Yu.

What a bloody and tragic reality...

No one can know whether they have any hope of returning to the core of power in the future.

For Guo Peng, these things are insignificant and unimportant, and Guo never shows mercy to his political opponents.

Now the backyard is temporarily stable. After some rewards, Mr. Guo's eyes can temporarily shift from the north to the south and west.

What has the world been messed up by the enfeoffment edicts that have caused chaos in the world?

Guo Pengrao asked about this matter with interest.

In fact, it was still a war. Except for the war in Yizhou that was settled down first, the internal and external wars in the other countries did not end.

Ma Teng and Han Sui's coalition forces fought against Zhang Ji. Because they were dissatisfied with Zhang Ji being the monarch, Ma Teng and Han Sui's coalition forces of more than [-] marched towards the land of Sanfu, and the soldiers pointed directly at Chang'an.

But at this moment, the Great Plague in Chang'an has passed, and Zhang Ji has no barriers, so he hastily led his army to Chang'an for defense.

Relying on the strong city of Chang'an, and the support of Duan Yan, who knows the truth about death, Zhang Ji and the Liangzhou coalition forces fought an offensive and defensive battle.

With nearly [-] troops on both sides, the battle was so dark that the surrounding area of ​​Chang'an City became a battlefield again.

Fortunately, the previous residents either died or ran away. At this time, the area around Chang'an City can be called no man's land.

chapter 505 five hundred and five

Fighting in no-man's land naturally won't bring any damage. Anyway, it's a deadly place, so fight as you like.

The ferocious Ma Teng, Han Sui and the ambitious Zhang Ji, Duan Yao started the battle of Chang'an in May, and fought until Guo Peng returned to Yecheng in early July, and the winner was still undecided.

In this war, Ma Teng's son, Ma Chao, who was only 20 years old, stood out and showed a very strong fighting ability.

Ma Chao was young and vigorous, and he led an army of five hundred to defeat Zhang Ji's army of one thousand.

Ma Teng was very happy that his son was so brave, so he allocated more troops to Ma Chao.

The young and energetic Ma Chao was not afraid of anything, he rushed and fought hard, leading the whole army to defeat Zhang Ji's field army, forcing Zhang Ji to retreat into Chang'an City and hold on.

The battle situation has thus fallen into a stalemate.

Zhang Ji was unable to repel Ma Teng and Han Sui, and Ma Teng and Han Sui were also unable to do anything to Chang'an City.
