After several years of development and layout, all the prefectures and counties in the Central Plains have Linzi camp spies arranged by Guo Peng.

They are very different identities, and they may not know each other's existence.

For example, there are eight secret agents sent by Guo Peng in Yuan Shujun, and the one with the highest position has become the tun chief.

Yuan Shao's Jizhou was also mixed with a lot of sand by Guo Peng's planned and premeditated efforts.

These spies were relatively immature at first, but after a long time, they became more sophisticated, constantly summing up their experience and going to the headquarters to make corresponding improvements according to the actual situation.

For example, if someone dies, the cause of death will be sent back to the headquarters and handed over to Yan Rou.

Yan Rou will report to Guo Peng, and then make improvements based on Guo Peng's opinions, telling future newcomers how to avoid death to the greatest extent.

The cause of their death was basically not found to be a secret agent.

At this time of chaotic war, the forces of all sides are not stable enough, so it is far from the time for various forces to play intelligence warfare.

Except for Guo who is ambitious and prepared, the others have no mind, no time, no resources to engage in intelligence troops, and they don't even stand firm on their heels, except for Yuan Shu, who would dream?

The agent's greatest danger is accidental death.

It is not uncommon for a bandit to die, a rout, a homeless, or even a wild beast.

So with the passage of time, Guo Peng's requirements for the training of newcomers in Linzi Camp have become higher and higher.

In this way, Linziying has matured step by step from a relatively immature organization when it was first established, becoming more and more sophisticated, and will become more and more terrifying.

This kind of investment, regardless of loss, has trained a group of very capable and highly qualified secret agents, and after they are dispersed, they often bring him very timely and very important information.

Yan Rou has also faded from the enthusiasm of the fourteen-year-old when he just followed Guo Peng, and now at the age of twenty, he has become a capable and powerful intelligence officer, both internally and externally.

He only knows one guideline.

Anyone who threatens Guo Peng is his enemy, whoever it is.

This is also the highest criterion of the entire Linzi camp.

Based on this criterion, the Linzi battalion launched intelligence espionage activities.

then provided Guo Peng with a series of whereabouts about Lu Bu, and on this basis, Guo Peng got his own reasoning.

In these days, time is victory, and whoever grabs the time will be able to win the victory, even if the information is obtained an hour earlier than the enemy, the odds of victory can be greatly increased.

Don't say that this kind of enemy doesn't even know that you already know about their existence.

Lu Bu didn't think that Guo Peng would be able to learn the news anytime soon, at least until he took Dongjun, Guo Peng would not be able to mobilize troops to go on the expedition.

He still has plenty of time.

He himself thinks so.

And Guo Peng had already figured out what he wanted to do when he was still singing double reed with Zhang Miaomei, and began to think.

This matter is inseparable from Yuan Shao, and it may even be that Yuan Shao secretly instructed Lu Bu to do it, in order to restrain his attention and prevent himself from having the opportunity to join forces with Gongsun Zan to deal with him, the north and south attacked him and abolished him.

He has no Liu Dai and no Cao Cao, so he can only choose Lu Bu, who has nowhere to go.

It just so happens that half of Yanzhou was not laid down by Guo Peng, and the foundation is weak and cannot be effectively controlled.

Therefore, this half of Yanzhou has naturally become a soft persimmon, easy to pinch, and Chen Liujun is a soft persimmon among soft persimmons.

Lu Bu took Chenliu County as the starting point, and the target was definitely Dongjun and Jiyin County, and then continued to go deeper.

Attacking Dongjun can directly open up the connection with Yuan Shao, with Yuan Shao at his back, you can attack, retreat, and escape directly to Jizhou, basically Lu Bu stands on the position of not dying.

Attacking Jiyin County could invade the hinterland of Yanzhou and threaten Guo Peng's rule in Yanzhou.

Guo Peng guessed that compared with other places, Lu Bu would definitely pay more attention to Dongjun, and would definitely personally lead the army to attack Dongjun.

So Guo Peng made a plan.

However, he did not plan to send troops too quickly, anticipating that the enemy would not be in his own interests in advance, and he thought that the image of turning the tide was more in his own interests.

The reason is very simple, for the few counties that he can't get involved in for the time being, Guo doesn't plan to anticipate the enemy so quickly and prevent it before it happens.

Chenliu County, Jiyin County, Renchengguo, Shanyang County, these four counties, half of Yanzhou, Guo someone can't intervene for the time being.

Dongjun is not completely mastered, but because of the tight terrain, Dongjun has to arrange garrison defense, so the control is a little stronger, so Dongjun has to arrange in advance.

Lu Bu can't be allowed to open up the route to join forces with Yuan Shao, and Dongjun can't lose it, otherwise there is a danger of getting away.

So Guo Peng used other reasons to "coincidentally" send 10,000 troops to support Dongjun.

The other four counties were completely ruled by local forces in Yanzhou, and Guo could only collect some taxes, and in principle, did not interfere in local administration.

Like other princes, they used their fame and military strength to deter and rule, and then enlisted their cooperation, appointed them as officials, and exchanged political power for some of their resources for their own use.

Of course, it must be greatly limited by the strength of the local gentry.

This is the so-called "limiting imperial power" that the legendary Chinese people pursue all their lives.

Whether it is the current politics of the nobles or the bureaucracy of the future, it has developed into the late dynasty, and it has never changed.

The imperial power declined, the autocracy declined, and the dynasty perished.

So the reason why the dynasty fell was not because of autocracy, but precisely because it was not autocratic enough to be autocratic, so it perished.

Of course, the bureaucrats of the noble clan held the power to write history books, and of course they covered up this deep-seated law, and threw the blame on the natural disasters of the eunuchs, the special agents of the eunuchs, and the peasant rebels, so that people felt that the literati were always just.

What is 200 years of raising a monk or something......

It can even represent advanced productive forces and democracy.

Guo is relying on this set to get to where he is today, okay?

He knew it all too well.

Thousands of years of unchanged tricks to fool people.

Guo Peng needed to use the exploits of the Yellow Turban Army to gain Yanzhou's recognition, but without the Yellow Turban Army, the mastery of these four counties would be far away.

Guo will not engage in an agrarian revolution and fight local tyrants to divide the land, which is purely a bad brain.

So find a backstabber to help him do what he needs to do, so that his hand can reach into these four counties smoothly.

Lu Bulu is reckless, aggressive, and has no brains, is a good helper, a perfect backstabber, and does not know how to produce, likes to rob, and is a typical rogue warlord thinking.

If the army wants to march, it will definitely plunder, it must be smashed and looted, and there are not many other places in these places, that is, there are more powerful manors and dock forts.

As the saying goes, the poor have no place to stand.

There was a lot of food, ordnance, and money in the manors and dock forts, which were the favorite of the army.

Guo Peng didn't believe that Lu Bu could do it without committing any crimes.

So Guo Peng wanted to trouble Lu Bu to be the director of the demolition and relocation office.

Help him to tear down and kill these nails that he is not comfortable with, and help him to make some room so that he can put his hand in it and take the land in these places for himself.

That's right, isn't it?

It wasn't me who did it, it was Lu Bu who did it, it's all Lu Bu's fault, you have to blame Lu Bu, don't blame me.

Oh, I forgot, you're all dead, you can't blame me.

When Lu Bu picks up these places, he can send troops to attack, turn the tide and help the general of the building, not only gain fame, but also take practical benefits.

So what's the old saying?

opponents, the other hand to realize dreams.

When the decision was made, Guo Peng suddenly felt that many people would die because of this, Lu Bu was not the real director of the Demolition and Relocation Office after all, and there would be more deaths.

My conscience aches.

Guo, who wants to move forward by any means, grinned.
