After listening to what Cao Cao said, Xi Zhong and Guo Jia looked at each other, their faces full of doubt.

Not only them, but also those staff officers in the staff station who were full of military planning and planned to show their strengths were also puzzled.

"Your Majesty, what Cao Shoufu said ......"

"Cai Deqi and Meng De are young friends, back then, after I pacified Hebei, Cai Deqi sent people to find Meng De to catch up, trying to get in touch with me, after that, he repeatedly passed the news inside Jingzhou to me, and also recruited Zhang Yun to secretly take refuge in me, these two people will not resist, once the army arrives, it will inevitably surrender the city."

Guo Peng answered the doubts of Xi Zhong and Guo Jia.

"How can there be such a thing......"

Xi Zhong was a little surprised, but immediately felt that it was very reasonable.

Guo Jia remembered Kuai Yue he had seen before, and related to Kuai Yue's attitude, at that time he just wanted to win over Kuai Yue, but he didn't expect that someone was already far ahead of everyone.

It seems that Jingzhou has not been infiltrated by Guo Peng......

It's amazing, but it's a real thing.

"In this way, the army of the Central Plains and General Zhu's army will not have to work hard to get Nanyang County and Xiangyang City, so that the army can drive straight into Jiangling for a long time!"

Guo Jia pointed to the situation of the army on the sand table, and directly replaced the Jingzhou soldiers of Nanyang County and Xiangyang with the war games of the Wei army, and then pointed directly at Jiangling.

"The situation has been set, Liu Biao will lose Jingbei within a month, he must flee to Jingnan, but Jingnan has only gone through the war, Liu Biao's foundation is unstable, it is impossible to attack us with Jingnan as the foundation, he can only keep fleeing, and it is even possible to escape to ...... Jiaozhou! ”

Guo Jia stretched out his hand and pointed to Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou, the southernmost part of the Han Empire, is also the most non-existent existence, and it does not even deserve its name in front of the Central Plains heroes who are vying for hegemony, and its status is very embarrassing, and it seems that it has not yet been uniformly recognized as a state assassin or state pastor.

In terms of the number of population, in terms of the number of acres of land reclaimed, it is estimated that it is not as good as even a large county in the Central Plains, and it seems to be a very large area on the map, but in fact, the jurisdiction area set up by the Han government can only be managed around the city.

The others are the territories of some local soil kings, nominally Han soil, but in fact they do not pay a penny of taxes, saying that they are semi-autonomous, but in fact they are independent kingdoms, and the Han government's ruling foundation in Jiaozhou is extremely weak.

That is, when Qin Shi Huang was eloquent and had a little power, he sent 500,000 troops south to open up the territory, and injected Chinese genes into this land, but then the entire Han Dynasty and four hundred years ago, he did not continue to promote civilization on the basis of Qin Shi Huang.

The short-sightedness and greed of the powerful landlord class were vividly reflected in this incident.

It is known that it will seize the land that has been developed, and disdain the vast undeveloped wasteland, as if it did not exist.

Therefore, development still depends on the government, not on the private sector.

But sometimes the government can't be trusted.

The Western Han government was strong enough, but its energy was focused on dealing with the steppe nomads in the north, and the Eastern Han government directly degenerated into a small government, which was enough to even fight, let alone develop.

So in the end, this matter still fell on Guo someone's head.

On the one hand, he wiped his ass for the Eastern Han Dynasty, fought with the warriors and heroes, and defended the interests of himself and Li Shu.

On the one hand, we will pick up the unfinished business of Qin Shi Huang and carry forward the past and forge ahead into the future, continue to develop, and broaden the living space of the whole nation.

Guo someone is really too difficult, too difficult.

"Jiaozhou...... We don't seem to have sent an edict to Jiaozhou to make them pay tribute, right? Will Jiaozhou not know that I have been proclaimed emperor? Who's in charge of this? ”

Guo Peng suddenly remembered this.

That's right, because he ignored Jiaozhou too much, Guo Peng even forgot to send an edict to Jiaozhou, but then again, he didn't even know who was in power in Jiaozhou at the moment, so what else did he say?

“…………”

Xi Zhong and Guo Jia didn't know anything about this, and they had to ask Guo Peng's newly appointed Ministry of Foreign Affairs Shangshu Xinbi, not them.

And then again, in such a remote place, it's still a group of primitive people, what's there to care about?

After cleaning up Liu Biao, are you still afraid that Jiaozhou will not accept it?

There is no Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, in Jiaozhou.

However, it is difficult to say that the wild land is full of people, and the economic interests of these places are also very low before they are developed, and when the Central Plains is fighting, Jiaozhou is almost the only pure land in the world, because no one will think of attacking him.

Guo Peng asked the eunuch to send an order to Xin Bi, and asked Xin Bi to investigate who the current ruler of Jiaozhou was, and then report back.

To solve the problem of Jiaozhou, there is almost no problem, the only problem is how to prevent Liu Biao from escaping to Jiaozhou, if he really wants to let him escape, it must be a disaster, if he can be caught, he must be caught, and in addition, whether Liu Zhang will send troops to help is also a problem.

But after a little discussion, everyone came to a consensus - it didn't work.

If Liu Zhang comes, then come, if he goes north to Hanzhong, then beat him in Hanzhong, if he comes directly to Jiangling, then he will pick up the grass and beat the rabbit with a spoonful of stew, when they marched together in three ways, they couldn't help Guo someone, let alone the Guo Wei Empire, which was more powerful than that time.

So there is nothing to worry about at all, it is better to say that it is not Guo Peng who has to worry about it, but Liu Biao and Liu Zhang.

For the time being, Liu Zhang's claim to be the emperor and Liu Biao's claim to be the king have spread within the territory of Wei, but they have not caused any waves, and as for what people with lofty ideals in the world have risen up to attack Guo Wei or something, it only exists in their imagination.

It is a great gift to be able to give these homeless people a stable home, a piece of land and some farm tools and seeds, so that they can eat.

The township and village chiefs at the grassroots level will often preach to them the gifts of His Majesty the Great Emperor to them, and Guo Wei is really popular.

Compared with the ethereal Liberation Han Dynasty, it is still more popular to be able to eat the food in your mouth.

And the reason why these news can be spread to the Central Plains is also a matter of businessmen, the Linzi camp is not a dry meal, if there were spies to do things, the Linzi camp would have taken action to wipe them out.

And for now, the ecological situation at the grassroots level of Wei is completely different from that of Liu Biao, Tuntian countryside occupies the majority, and Haoqiang Manor does not account for the majority, and it is not easy to buy Haoqiang to raise troops to do things.

Moreover, Guo Peng overhauled the road and improved the traffic situation, which had already renovated the backward traffic situation in the late Han Dynasty, and those spies in Jiangnan wanted to contact the so-called "people with lofty ideals", but it is estimated that they could not find the way.

In this case, it can still be spread, which can only be said to be the credit of business travel.

Although the war is still fought, the business of the caravan still has to be done, the economy still has to develop, Guo himself is doing business, and others will naturally do business, bringing the things that the southerners need to the south to sell, and then exchange them for the things that the northerners need.

For example, the famous Shu brocade.

No matter how Guo Peng's relationship with Liu Zhang deteriorated, the supply of Shu brocade was never interrupted.

The wealthy family in Shu and the official Shu Han liked the standard five-baht coin cast by Guo Peng, and the official Guo Wei also liked the Shu brocade, and the dress used by Guo Peng to ascend the throne was made of pure Shu brocade.

Although there are no exchanges between the two sides at the military and political level, there are still exchanges in the economic and cultural fields.

Moreover, the borders of each other in this era are not the Berlin Wall, they are not as clear as on the map, there is no satellite monitoring, no one knows it, and there is no border wall to prevent people from smuggling, it is just a general concept.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Guo Peng to use a great canon of talent to envelop most of the scholars in Jingzhou to his side, and directly collapse Jingzhou's culture.

So the news that Liu Zhang was proclaimed emperor and Liu Biao was proclaimed king also came and went with the caravans, and the news that the two called on people with lofty ideals in the world to rise up against Guo Wei's puppet dynasty also spread to the Central Plains like a joke.

The caravans did spread the word in the guise of a joke.

In their opinion, if you want to talk about war in this world, Guo Peng is second, who dares to call it first?

If there is a first, then it is not Guo Peng who will be the emperor.

Guo himself was the only "man with lofty ideals" who maintained the Han dynasty back then, if there was no Guo someone who "raised an army to fight" Yuan Shu, the world would be surnamed Yuan now.

So you guess there are no "people with lofty ideals" in the world now?
