After discovering Cao Cao's entanglement, Han Hao keenly realized that this was a very good opportunity.

It's a great opportunity to show your talents.

So Han Hao introduced his resume, saying that he had experience in leading troops and was willing to participate in the war.

"I came here because I admired Guo Qingzhou's achievements, so I came to take refuge in Guo Qingzhou, and I was willing to be a member of Guo Qingzhou's account, and I also asked Cao Fujun to believe in it."

Han Hao made a big salute.

Cao Cao realized that he didn't have any choice, so he chose to believe in Han Hao.

So he nodded, and immediately appointed Han Hao as a fake Sima, and led the remaining 1,000 garrisons and hundreds of county soldiers under the jurisdiction of Dong County to go to Yan County to assist Yan County in guarding the city.

And he stayed in Puyang to launch Zhuangding, guarding against Yuan Shao while being ready to support Yanxian and Changyuan at any time.

At this time, the border messenger sent Cao Cao urgent information, saying that after investigation, they found signs of Yuan Shao's army activities near Fanyang County, and they did not know what it meant.

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and immediately frowned.

Yuan Benchu!

Cao Cao gritted his teeth and hated Yuan Shao, but he felt a headache again.

I only have one person, and I have to support the front line, and I have to guard against Yuan Shao's troops to attack Puyang, and I lack skills, and there is a lack of soldiers, how can this be good?

Just when Cao Cao was in a dilemma, he suddenly received a warrant from Guo Peng.

The warrant said that Guo Peng learned that Yuan Shao's Jizhou soldiers and horses were showing signs of moving south, so he dispatched the marching army Sima Xizhong with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, two generals, to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to Dongjun, so that he could unite with Cao Ren to prepare to defend against Yuan Shao's attack.

Cao Cao was suddenly pleasantly surprised and didn't know what to say.

And what else is such a coincidence?

His letter for help has only been sent out for a day, and Guo Peng has already sent troops here!

Cao Cao breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Because of Han Hao's arrival and warning, Cao Cao had a few more days to prepare, and he was more prepared and more sure, and now that another 10,000 soldiers and horses were coming, he was even more relieved.

When Lu Bu sent troops to basically take the county seat of Chenliu County, and plundered the army, the defense of Changyuan and Yan County had already begun.

This is something that Lu Bu never imagined.

Lü Bu's goal was not just Chenliu County, but the entire Yanzhou.

Therefore, after occupying Chenliu County and surrendering Chenliu County's army, Lü Bu began to prepare to attack Dongjun and Jiyin County.

In order to attack, he plundered several county towns and surrounding manors in Chenliu County, obtained enough food, grass and ordnance to satisfy the appetite of the soldiers, and then officially launched an attack.

Be fast, so fast that Guo Peng can't react and take Yanzhou, this is the best!

Lu Bu, who advocated fastness and ruthlessness, immediately began to act.

His troops were divided into two routes, one was led by him to attack Dongjun, and the other was handed over to his trusted general Gao Shun to attack Jiyin County, while his trusted general Wei Xu stayed behind to guard Chenliu County and ensure logistics.

Lu Bu's actions were always so fast and violent.

From stabbing Zhang Miao to death with a knife to the beginning of the attack to occupying the entire Chenliu County, the time spent was only five days.

Zhang Miao's head played a big role, although he felt a little sorry for Zhang Miao, but Lu Bu felt that for his own grand cause, it was okay for Zhang Miao to contribute his head.

Anyway, he himself said that he would forgive Lu Bu, what else is Lu Bu embarrassed about?

As for Zhang Chao, he didn't know what to do, so he actually wanted to resist stubbornly, and it was only natural that he was killed by Gao Shun.

Chen Liu's garrison surrendered in large numbers, and Lu Bu captured Zhuangding to join the army, and the strongman locked the man, and forcibly recruited 30,000 soldiers and horses in a short time, and he himself brought 20,000 to attack Dongjun, and gave Gao Shun 10,000 to attack Jiyin County.

These "armies" with no sense of belonging, in the morning they are still Chen Liu's defenders, and at night they become Lu Bu's invading army, and the rapid change of character identity is ridiculous.

But it's normal, it's normal, it's normal in this era, and for more than a thousand years to come, it's happening all over the world all the time.

Every person who is abused will basically become an abuser whenever they have the opportunity.

It doesn't matter if it's Lu Bu or Ying Bu or a rag, as long as someone gives them this opportunity, of course they have to follow.

Isn't fighting a war just about grabbing money, food, and women?

So when Guo learned the news, he was not surprised at all.

In fact, Guo learned that Lu Bu had entered Chenliu County no later than Cao Cao learned.

Almost at the same moment, Guo knew that Lu Bu had entered Chenliu County to find Zhang Miao.

After gathering the fact that Lu Bu left Yuan Shao and went to Hanoi County, and took 3,000 troops from Hanoi County, Guo Peng basically guessed what Lu Bu wanted to do.

In the original history, the reason why Zhang Miao betrayed Cao Cao was because Cao Cao was Yuan Shao's person, Yuan Shao and Zhang Miao had enmity and different political positions, and they pressured Cao Cao several times to ask Cao Cao to kill Zhang Miao.

Zhang Miao saw Han Fu's death with his own eyes, so he was afraid that Cao Cao would eventually be unable to resist the pressure and harm him, and it was not impossible for him to betray him if he was fooled by Chen Gongyi.

Guo Peng's political position is the same as Zhang Miao's, recognizing Liu Xie's legal status, and also having an enmity with Yuan Shao like him, which is a good basis for him to rely on.

Zhang Miao had no motive or need to betray, and the mastermind Chen Gong was planning the strategy and tactics for Guo Peng to capture Jizhou and making tactical deductions.

Through the intelligence network covering several prefectures and counties in the Central Plains, as well as Jizhou in Hebei Province and Luoyang in Guanzhong, Guo Peng's information and speed will definitely not be too slow.

The intelligence force, which has been cultivated and trained since Ueya-gun, has come to fruition after several years of flowering.

These good seedlings who were personally taken care of and educated by him are absolutely trustworthy and reliable.

From the time he met Yan Rou after crusading against Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun, Guo Peng knew what he should do the most.

In the past few years, he has been searching for and raising orphans and orphans who have lost their parents and are lonely, placing them in a safe place around them, personally taking care of them, giving them food and drink, teaching them literacy, teaching them martial arts and survival skills, and brainwashing them by the way.

When they reach the age of fifteen, they have three places to go.

One was arranged by Guo Peng to enter the army to become a grassroots officer, a military chief and the like, to help Guo Peng master the army from the grassroots level.

One is to go to the grassroots village to be the village head, implement Guo Peng's will to the grassroots level, master the locality, and ensure that Guo Peng's foundation is solid.

The last one is to join Guo Peng's personally established intelligence force under his control, headed by Yan Rou, with a scale of more than 800 people in the Linzi Battalion.

The name of Linzi Camp is to hide people's eyes.

Ordinary people only know that there is such a battalion of the army, and think that it is a garrison army, but there are very few people who really know its functions, except for Guo Peng, only Cheng Li knows the specific content.

This unit is directly responsible to Guo Peng, and without anyone else's grasp, it directly transfers all kinds of information it has collected to Guo Peng through various routes for Guo Peng to know.
