The traffic situation in Shu is so bad that the control of the central government over Shu has always been very poor.

Liu Biao has not coveted Yizhou for a day or two, and he also wants to occupy the treasure land of Yizhou, but Liu Yan is indeed not easy to deal with.

But last year, Liu Yan's eldest son and second son who stayed in the court participated in the plot of Ma Teng Han Sui's attack on Li Wei, and after Li Wei's victory, Liu Yan's eldest son and second son were executed.

Now that Liu Yan is critically ill, he is about to die, no matter who inherits Liu Yan's position, Shu will be chaotic for a while, isn't this a good time to do things?

So Liu Biao immediately put the matter of going to war with Yuan Shu behind him, and began to think about how to do things in Yizhou.

Of course, before doing something, you have to make sure that Liu Yan is really dead, and then find a way to do it.

Liu Biao's energy was focused on this aspect, so he ignored Jia Xu and the Chang'an Imperial Court.

But on the other hand, Yu Fuluo, who was in Taiyuan County, was very interested in Jia Xu's edict.

In the edict, Jia Xu not only promised to give Yu Fuluo a large amount of money, food, cloth, and women.

Not only that, but he also promised Yu Fuluo that as long as he could defeat Guo Peng's power in Bingzhou and further south to occupy Hanoi, he could immediately edict Yu Fuluo to be the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu, and allow Yu Fuluo to return to the Southern Xiongnu to succeed him.

Jia Xu also said that in order to help Yu Fuluo defeat Guo Peng's forces in Bingzhou, he also sent troops to assist Yu Fuluo, so that he would not fight in isolation and ensure his results.

Yang Feng, who was originally a general of the Baibo Army, and later defected to Li Dao after the death of the leader Guo Tai in battle, led 2,000 troops back to Baibo Valley according to Li Dai's order, and appeased Han Xian, Li Le, Hu Cai and others, and joined forces of more than 20,000 people to help Yu Fuluo.

The Southern Xiongnu moved into the interior from the Western Han Dynasty, and the Eastern Han Dynasty went further deeper, until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and had occupied many counties in the Yellow River Valley.

In the entire annexed prefecture, only Shangdang County was under the control of Guo Peng, the others were either controlled by local clans or controlled by Yufulo and Baibo Army, and further north was Shan Yuting of the Southern Xiongnu, and the surrounding counties were all controlled by the Southern Xiongnu.

At present, although Yufulo is not a single Southern Xiongnu and cannot use all the strength of the Southern Xiongnu, the combined Baibo Army is entrenched in the area of Xihe County and Taiyuan County, and the combined army of Yufulo and Baibo Army also has tens of thousands of people, and the momentum is not small.

At the beginning, Yu Fuluo was not allowed to return to the Southern Xiongnu, and in desperation, he made a living by plundering, and plundered the people everywhere in Hebei.

When Guo Peng went south to Luoyang from Shanggu County, he happened to bump into a cavalry of the Southern Xiongnu to plunder the local people, so he led troops to attack the cavalry of the Southern Xiongnu, beheaded hundreds, saved tens of thousands of people in Hebei, and formed a grudge with the Southern Xiongnu.

This time, Guo Peng's invasion of Hebei did not enter Yu Fuluo's sphere of influence at first, and Yu Fuluo did not react.

But when Guo Peng ordered Zang Hong and Zhang Yan to enter Shangdang County and occupy it, and then began to spy on the situation in other counties in Bingzhou, Yu Fuluo became vigilant.

Guo Peng has a grudge against him, which Yu Fuluo is very sure of.

Now it seems that Guo Peng is also an enemy, not a friend, since this is the case, it is better to unite with the Chang'an Imperial Court to fight Guo Peng together.

Anyway, this can be regarded as an order from the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the name is justified, and he can get back the status of the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu afterwards, why not?

So Yufuluo began to prepare intensively for the war.

Under the coordination of Yang Feng, the two armies of the Baibo Army and the Yufuluo Army jointly mobilized troops and horses, prepared dry food, and prepared to go south to give Guo Peng a little color.

Such a large-scale movement was naturally detected by Zang Hong and Zhang Yan, and in April of the first year of Xingping, Zang Hong and Zhang Yan conveyed this information to Guo Peng.

At that time, Guo Peng was immersed in the joy that Cao Lan and Mi Zhen each gave birth to a son.

Pregnant in October, Cao Lan and Mi Zhen each gave birth to a son in March of the first year of Xingping, and there were only a few days apart.

Guo Peng was overjoyed, found his family to have a feast together, and then named his two sons Ah Jian and Ah Kang respectively.

Counting these two, twenty-nine-year-old Guo Peng is the father of four children, and they are all sons.

For men at this time, this is undoubtedly a very face-saving thing.

Of course, Cao Song is very happy, and Mi Zhu is also very happy.

Although Guo Peng felt that he had a bit of a son, he seemed to want a daughter......

However, having more sons means that the inheritance is relatively safe, there are more choices, and there is no need to worry about dying halfway, which is a great joy for people at this time.

Therefore, Guo Peng also held several banquets and rejoiced with his subordinates.

As a result, it has been less than a month since the joy was over, and Guo Peng had not yet recovered his normal state of mind from the joy, and Yu Fuluo and Bai Bojun were about to do something, which made Guo Peng very annoyed.

To be honest, Guo Peng really plans to attack the state after rectifying Jizhou and abolish the major forces in the state.

Turn the merger state, which basically has no nobles and no heroes, into a territory that truly belongs to you, annex it, master a very strategic border state, and then build your own invincible cavalry army here.

But for now, it seems that Yu Fuluo and Bai Bojun don't plan to give him a chance to recuperate.

The White Wave Army did not have a leader who had the same vision as Zhang Yan, so the Montenegrin Army could get a good end, while the White Wave Army did not.

This group of people is simply looking for death, and against a prince like himself who occupies such a vast territory, this is definitely looking for death!

Guo Peng is very sure.

This is especially true of Yufula.

Before going south to Luoyang, Guo Peng still remembers the battle with a cavalry of the Southern Xiongnu.

Unlike the long-term cooperation with Nanlou, Yu Fuluo is not a simple commodity, with a large group of outlaws, Zhang Yan, who has had dealings with him, said that the cavalry under Yu Fuluo is very fierce.

Although more than one-third of the rectification work in Jizhou has been completed, the army recruitment has ended.

Guo Peng set up two large training battalions in Jizhou, recruited 100,000 troops for drills, and conducted drills in accordance with the compiled training and drill manuals, and achieved initial results.

However, it is obvious that this army is not yet ready to be used in actual combat, and the training is insufficient, even if it is to be called up for combat, it is estimated that only the 30,000 people who first surrendered to Guo Peng can join.

The 30,000 people did not return to the land, Guo Peng chose to break them up, put them into the recruit camp, and use the strict military law and military regulations in his army to restrain them, beat them well, and wait for the military regulations and military discipline to pass before they can be released.

That's how he thinks, so at the moment there aren't enough mobile forces.

When the battle was full, he only had a little more than 40,000 mobile troops on hand, and the rest of the troops were stationed, or he was selected as an officer, and entered the recruit training camp to be a grassroots officer and lead the recruits.

Later, Guo Peng got the information sent by Guanzhong, and learned that it was the Chang'an Imperial Court that was playing ghosts, and he was trying to attack him with Fuluo and the Baibo army, disrupting Hebei, and didn't want to let himself develop in peace.

They're still a step too late.

Guo Peng has been in control of Jizhou for half a year, nearly 200 days, Guo Peng has not slackened in the slightest, leading the grassroots officials under him to work hard to rectify Jizhou, and some results have been achieved.

Moreover, the battle between the Youzhou army and the Karasuma army to unite against the Qiu Li residence ended three months ago, and both Youzhou and Karasuma have rested for about three months, and they can take out some of their forces to support Guo Peng.

In this battle, if Yu Fuluo really dared to fight, Guo Peng wouldn't mind tearing him apart and then eating him.

Anyway, I have to eat it sooner or later, and there is nothing wrong with eating it now.

This time, Guo Peng prepared to personally dispatch 30,000 soldiers and horses to the area of Shangdang County and Hanoi County to resist the Baibo Army and Yufula's coalition army.

Moreover, Guo Peng was ready to take Zhang He, Gao Lan, Yan Liang, Zhu Ling, Jiang Qi, Xia Zhao and many other generals, accompanied by Tian Feng, the counselor's military plane, ready to leave for the north and the state at any time.

In this march, Guo Peng decided not to use the old generals and meritorious generals, but to give a chance to the generals under Yuan Shao, who were very eager to make contributions.

Let them display their talents, accumulate some credit, and gain a foothold in Guo Peng's camp with peace of mind.
