Fa Zheng believed that after taking Hanyang County, the troops could attack the Liangzhou counties in two ways, expand the results of the battle, and take the three counties to the west, and the main force to the east to take the land of Guanzhong.

In this way, there is no unified ruler in the two places, they cannot meet the enemy in time, and there is no overall planning, so for the Shu army with overall planning, it is weak.

As long as the attack is carried out, great results can be achieved, and the situation in Shu can be opened, and the passive can be turned into the active, and the geographical advantage can be occupied.

As long as this condition is achieved, then the overall situation in Shuzhong will be revitalized, and the trapped dragon will fly into the sky and soar over Kyushu, which will be out of control.

The Shu army can not only threaten the Liangzhou separatist forces, but also Guo Peng.

As a result, once Guo Peng chooses to march, he will face a pincer offensive from Liangzhou and Hanzhong, and it will be difficult to take care of each other at the end.

Moreover, the destruction of the land of Kansai is too far away from Guo Peng's core ruling area, and the transportation of grain and grass is a great difficulty, as long as it enters the stage of strategic stalemate, Guo Peng must be the first to survive.

At that time, Guo Peng will have to withdraw his troops and return east.

The land he abandoned will become the foundation for Liu Zhang's establishment of the imperial industry, and when the time comes, he will not worry that Guo Peng will not recognize Liu Zhang's imperial throne.

"Once Shuzhong and Liangzhou and Guanzhong are integrated, then the foundation of the Qin and Gaozu periods to compete for hegemony is already there, with the products of Shu and the geographical advantages of Liangzhou Guanzhong, combined into one, you can stabilize the world, and retake the road of hegemony, can't the general become the hero of Zhongxing Han?"

"Guanxi is dilapidated, from Luoyang to Chang'an, 800 miles, Guo Zifeng marched 800 miles, and the grain and grass are lost excessively, how long can it last? Once Guo Zifeng can't hold on and will inevitably withdraw from the army, Chang'an will be occupied by me, and at that time, Liangzhou, Guanzhong, and even the entire Guanxi will all be in my pocket, can't it be the foundation of the emperor's industry? ”

Fa Zheng analyzed Pang Xi for a while, and gave Pang Xi a plan for a better future.

Pang Xi listened in a daze, and vaguely felt that what Fa Zheng said was good and reasonable.

He really deserves to be my military advisor! I read you right!

Pang Xi admired Fa Zheng very much, so he often talked about the strategy and tactics of the Northern Expedition with Fa Zheng, and listened to Fa Zheng pour out all his suggestions and learning, and the two continued to make strategic deductions on the map, and their relationship became deeper and deeper.

Pang Xi's ambitious plan was to go north to Guanzhong, occupy Chang'an, and welcome Liu Zhang to Chang'an as emperor.

Then, a few days later, before his report documents arrived in Chengdu, Liu Biao's messenger arrived.

"Liu Jingsheng wants to sign an offensive and defensive alliance treaty with me to deal with Guo Zifeng?"

Liu Zhang read Liu Biao's letter, and after listening to Liu Biao's envoy's account, he was slightly surprised.

He will not forget that Liu Biao had a conflict with Liu Yan a few years ago, and wanted to falsely accuse Liu Yan of his ambition to be emperor to the imperial court, which worsened the relationship between the imperial court and Liu Yan and indirectly led to the death of his brothers.

He will not forget that Liu Biao once coveted the land of Shu, and after Liu Yan's death, he wanted to use Gan Ning and others to rebel against him to seek the land of Shu and murder his life.

In Liu Zhang's opinion, Liu Biao is even more hateful than Guo Peng, because Guo Peng has never targeted him and has no relationship with him, while Liu Biao has really been hostile to him, has done things, and made him sleepless.

At this time, Liu Biao wanted to join forces with him, was there a fraud?

Liu Zhang was skeptical.

Having said that, Liu Zhang also knows that Guo Peng is indeed a big threat.

I heard that Guo Peng has taken control of Xuzhou, and the Central Plains and Hebei are in his hands, and now that Hongnong has changed drastically, he will definitely not give up this opportunity to enter Guanxi, so ......

Guo Peng is indeed a very terrible threat.

If he gets the land of Guanxi, according to the Guanzhong Plain to deter Shu, condescendingly eyeing the land, wouldn't Shu land be very dangerous?

Compared with Guo Peng, who has great strength, Liu Biao is like a tiger without teeth and claws, it looks fierce, but in fact it has no lethality.

So Liu Biao is only a superficial threat, and he can't take it seriously, Guo Peng is the real threat, he doesn't make a sound, but he wants to die.

Liu Zhang thought about it again and again and decided to agree to Liu Biao's alliance agreement.

Abandon the confrontation and game between the two sides and turn all military and political forces to the north.

The main force of the garrison set up by the two sides in the Yong'an area of Jiangzhou was withdrawn, leaving only a small number of patrol troops, and it was agreed that they would not invade each other.

Liu Zhang not only signed an alliance with Liu Biao, but also signed an alliance with Sun Ce.

Liu Biao, as the initiator, has joined forces with Sun Ce to temporarily suppress the enmity between the two sides and go north to confront Guo Peng.

The princes in the north are about to be swept away by Guo Peng, and if this continues, he will definitely accumulate enough strength to go south, and if he is in a hurry at that time, everything will be over.

After the covenant was signed, Liu Zhang felt a little sense of security, felt that he had a partner, and had a little confidence, so he thought about doing something.

Although he and Guo Peng had no grudges in the past and no enmity in recent days, they had no contact at all, and they didn't know Guo Peng at all.

But once Guo Peng occupies the land of Kansai, he can't think of what will happen to him.

Now that he has obtained the land of Qin, there is no one who does not continue to covet the land of Shu to the south.

Guo Peng is too powerful, almost all of them are in the north.

In the north, apart from the lone army of Ma Teng Han Sui, there were no more of his enemies, and his enemies no longer existed.

Liu Zhang felt that he should do something, so he found Wang Shang, a native of Yizhou, and Meng Guang, a native of Dongzhou, and asked them for strategies.

After reaching an agreement with Liu Biao and Sun Ce, what should he do to contain Guo Peng, instead of sitting idly by.

The two are at odds of opinion.

Wang Shang believes that Guo Peng's power is huge, his foundation is deep, and he has as many as 200,000 armor, and the strength of Yizhou really cannot be compared with Guo Peng, who occupies the entire Kwantung region.

Therefore, Yizhou should stop marching after seizing Hanzhong, guard the pass, save grain, grass, and soldiers, and develop itself, so as to accumulate enough strength, and first protect itself, and then it can try to win people.

Liu Zhang felt that it made sense.

But Meng Guang doesn't think so.

"The road to Shu is difficult, it is not easy for northerners to come in, and it is not easy for Shu people to go out, once the overall situation of the world has been decided, the Shu people will be trapped in Yizhou, which is an acre of three points of land, and the final result can only be defeated or even surrendered without a fight, if you don't go north to seize Guanzhong, can you let the king live a stable life with Yizhou alone?"

Liu Zhang thought about it and felt that what Meng Guang said was also reasonable.

Wang Shang vigorously objected.

"Having said that, but going north to capture Guanzhong also depends on strength, Guo Zifeng has 200,000 armor, the army is elite and good at fighting, and no one among the princes of the north is his opponent, can our army defeat him? Can our army send 100,000 troops to the north? ”

Liu Zhang still thinks what Wang Shang said makes sense.

"How do you know if you don't try? If you can't get Guanzhong, you can only sit and wait for Guo Zifeng to go south to Shu to attack Yizhou, he has the advantage, and our army is forced to defend, once the defense line is broken, where else can the king retreat? South Middle? ”

Meng Guang refuted Wang Shang's opinion.

Wang Shang shook his head again.

"The land of Kansai has been repeatedly plagued by wars, it is already a ruin, it is easy to capture, but it is difficult to garrison, it is almost impossible to obtain food from the local area to supply on the spot, if you want to stay permanently, you need a large amount of food supply, this is an extremely heavy burden, can the Yizhou treasury bear it?

In other words, it is the same for Guo Zifeng, who mobilized troops to fight against Ma Teng and Han Sui, and was exhausted to seize the land of Kansai, but had to retreat because there was no food supply, Guo Zifeng categorically could not occupy Kansai, for us and others, this is something to worry about. ”

Wang Shang asserted that even if Guo Peng defeated Ma Teng and Han Sui, he would not be able to occupy Guanxi and threaten Yizhou.

Liu Zhang suddenly felt that this speculation was the most reasonable.

"Isn't this the king's chance?"

Meng Guang turned his offensive and said: "Let Guo Zifeng and Ma Teng Han then fight, both defeated, but the winner can't hold on to the land of Kansai, at that time, the king can send troops to the north to attack the tired army with a recuperated army, can't it win?"

Once victorious, the king can occupy the Guanzhong Plain without much effort, occupy Chang'an, call up some materials, grain and grass, and then use the local army to obtain food, and then requisition the people into Guanzhong, and accumulate grain, grass and materials.

After Guo Zifeng and Ma Han fought, they were exhausted and could not attack again within two years, during this time, it was enough for the king to gain a firm foothold in Chang'an and develop the local area, so why couldn't the king take the path of Emperor Taizu Gao again? ”

Meng Guang told Liu Zhang his speculation with a happy face, and the more Liu Zhang listened, the more he felt that this plan was feasible.

He didn't grow up in Yizhou, he grew up in the north, and naturally he also felt homesick, although it was safer to stay in Yizhou, but under Guo Peng's strong deterrence, he felt that Yizhou was not so safe.

Meng Guang is right, there is a dead end in Yizhou, and only by constantly striving can there be a way to live.

If Guo Peng and Ma Han are really defeated, then ...... Why can't you take the opportunity to go north to pick up the leak?

Liu Zhang's careful thinking was opened.

Wang Shang didn't look good, this is simply dragging the Yizhou people and the powerful Guo Zifeng to fight to death, is it in the interests of the Yizhou people?

Wang Shang was very anxious, so he immediately spoke.

"Meng Gong's statement is reasonable, but the king, Hanzhong has not yet been won, how can we talk about Guanzhong?"

In a word, Meng Guang's face suddenly changed, and Liu Zhang's face also changed.

That's right, Hanzhong hasn't been taken down yet, what else is there to talk about Guanzhong?

Yizhou is not yet complete, what else is there to talk about?

This question is very debatable.

Liu Zhang's felt a little discouraged, Meng Guang felt a little embarrassed, and Wang Shang breathed a heavy sigh of relief and was no longer worried.

As a result, providence made people, and at this time, Pang Xi's good news came.

Hanzhong has already been taken.
