The strategists looked at each other, frowning and pondering.

Yuan Shao thought like this, it's not that he can't, it's just that the risk is a bit big.

Moreover, taking such a risk to do things, it is easy to withstand the offensive of public opinion, and once the action is unfavorable, the gains will outweigh the losses.

It's not impossible, though.

"Then, the only way to do this is to take advantage of the fact that they are all fighting with Dong Zhuo in Guanzhong, and they will draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle!"

Xu You's face was grim.

Feng Jishen thought so, and said: "The general can take advantage of the fact that they are all in Guanzhong to make a move against Qingzhou and Yuzhou." ”

Xun Chen looked hesitant.

"General, it's just a matter of doing it to Sun Jian, his Yuzhou assassination history is Yuan Shu's expression, the name is not right, the general can also express the Yuzhou assassination history, Yuan Shu is helpless, but Guo Peng led Qingzhou is appointed by the imperial court, and the name is justified, we have no righteous name for Qingzhou."

Yuan Shao suddenly hesitated, feeling that what Xun Chen said was very right.

Wouldn't it be tantamount to a justifiable rebellion against the imperial court?

If Han Fu's Jizhou Mu was not appointed by the imperial court, did he still need to be careful to deceive?

Just start fighting directly.

Guo Penglingqingzhou was also appointed by the imperial court, and General Zuo was also justified, much more justifiable than his self-proclaimed Che Cavalry General Yuan Shao and the deceived Jizhou Mu.

Isn't it blatantly against the imperial court to do it to him?

The Han Dynasty has not yet perished, and there is still the emperor, but the people of the world have not yet accepted the situation that the Han Dynasty is going to perish.

Xu Yu doesn't think so.

"Guo Peng's Qingzhou Mu was appointed by Dong Zhuo, and he himself said that Dong Zhuo's name was Han Xiang and he was actually a Han thief, so what else is there to say?"

Xun Chen continued to shake his head.

"That's the official document of the imperial court, the emperor's treasure seal, the name is right, no matter how you say it, the righteousness is not on our side, there is no righteousness, Qingzhou, you can't move, otherwise the general will be extremely passive."

Yuan Shao was even more annoyed.

"General, Ji has an idea."

Feng Ji suddenly spoke, and Yuan Shao hurriedly asked.

"Tell me!"

"Qingzhou was attacked by the Yellow Turban Army, and there are still many Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, why don't the general send troops into Qingzhou under the pretext of helping Guo Zifeng fight against the Yellow Turban Army, that way, it is much more justifiable."

Yuan Shao's face was overjoyed and looked at Xun Chen.

Xun Chen hesitated for a moment.

"This ...... It barely makes sense, but once Guo Zifeng refuses, there is no excuse to continue to enter Qingzhou, and if you enter again, you will be bitten back by Guo Zifeng, saying that we are in danger of rebellion. ”

"So, while he's not here now, do it immediately, and work with Yuzhou!"

Xu You said quickly: "If the general wants to achieve great things, he must be decisive, not hesitate, not lose the opportunity, and never come again!" ”

Yuan Shao suddenly felt that what Xu Yu said was very right, although Xun Chen was still a little hesitant, but Yuan Shao had made up his mind.

Yuan Shao decided to immediately send his generals Zhou Ang and Lu Yi to lead the army into Yuzhou and Qingzhou, and take advantage of the fact that Sun Jian and Guo Peng were on the front line to fight against Dong, and draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, so that they would suffer a dumb loss!

The prelude to the chaos in the world was blown by Dong Zhuo, and after entering the main topic, the first sound was played by Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, who killed Qiao Mao and annexed Dongjun.

And the one who played the strongest note in the early stage was Yuan Shao.

When the Dong Alliance had not yet been nominally dissolved, Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, began to stab him in the back.

For his own selfish interests, he disregarded the righteousness of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, and directly attacked his allies, which made many people see Yuan Shao's true face more clearly.

However, the troubled times are coming, no matter how ugly you look, as long as the power is strong, some people will take refuge, some people will blow, and some people will help wash the ground.

And the weak, even if they are violated, even if they have a righteous name, they are not used, and no one will stand up for the weak.

That's right, no one stands up for the weak.

Obviously, Yuan Shao regarded both Sun Jian and Guo Peng as weaklings.

Then, the strategists under Yuan Shao's command analyzed the situation in the world for him, made a lot of suggestions to him, helped him make friends with the sect members and Liu Dai, and sent people to develop in Bingzhou, observe the situation in Bingzhou, and then infiltrate to the south to curb the development of Yuanshu's faction.

After getting Jizhou, coupled with the relationship with the sect members and Liu Dai, Yuan Shao instantly reversed the unfavorable situation he had against Yuan Shu.

Once the huge heritage of the fourth world and the third prince explodes, it can instantly turn the situation in the world around.

Yuan Shao immediately had the potential to dominate Hebei and even the world, and not long ago, he was just a dispensable Bohai Taishou.

A few months later, he began to plan to conquer the world.

Strategists, generals, armies, territory, nothing is missing.

The power of the Yuan clan can be seen.

At this time, Guo Peng and Sun Jian were still on the front line in Guanzhong, crossed the virtual Hangu Pass, and launched an attack on Xu Rong, who was defending the garrison in Michi, and the two sides fought for several months, regardless of victory or defeat.

At this time, Hangu Pass had long lost the role of the Xiongguan in the world during the Warring States Period.

The terrain of Hangu Pass in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is very steep, the highlands on both sides of it are called Chousang Plain, the middle crack is Hangu, the gate is built at the mouth of the crack, and there is a Hongnong River in front of the pass.

During the pre-Qin period, the six countries of Kwantung invaded Qin, and they had to cross the river before they could detain the pass, and even if they entered the pass, they had to pass through a fifteen-kilometer-long valley crack, and the march was extremely risky.

Therefore, the Qin State relied on the natural danger of Hangu Pass, which could be attacked and retreated, and constantly ravaged the six countries of Shandong.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty moved the Hangu Pass to the east for hundreds of miles and set up a new Hangu Pass.

There are two ways to enter the Guanzhong Plain from Luoyang, the new Hangu Pass is located on the north road, and the south road is not set up, resulting in the strategic value of the new Hangu Pass is far less than the old Hangu Pass.

For this reason, entering the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court began to reuse the old Hangu Pass.

But hundreds of years have passed, the climate and environment in Guanzhong have changed dramatically, and the surrounding area of Hangu Pass has also undergone great changes.

The original wall of the old Hangu Pass is close to the Yellow River, leaving no gap, but in the Eastern Han Dynasty, due to the continuous downward cutting of the Yellow River, the water level of the Yellow River is also constantly decreasing, and the original river channel close to the original wall will be exposed, forming a river beach.

And this river beach can pass people, which makes the natural danger of Hangu Pass no longer exist, and the value of the old Hangu Pass almost does not exist.

So there was later in the first year of Jian'an, Cao Cao ordered the construction of Tongguan.

At this time, Tongguan still did not exist, and in order to defend against the attack of the Kwantung army, Dong Zhuo set up heavy troops in Mianchi, Huayin, and Anyi, and let other generals stay in the counties to form multiple lines of defense.

Layers of defense, continuous blocking, and troops, logistics and supply are far superior to the coalition forces of Guo Peng and Sun Jian.

In desperation, Guo Peng and Sun Jian could only insist on fighting, trying to defeat Dong Zhuo's defense line little by little, but with little success.

Xu Rong was in a hurry repeatedly, and repeatedly received reinforcements from Dong Zhuo, so he was able to stabilize the front, and did not let Guo Peng and Sun Jian achieve the strategic goal of breaking through to Hongnong County.

There is no way, the logistics and troops are insufficient, although Guo Peng has repeatedly hit Xu Rong's army, he has never been able to defeat Xu Rong and go further.

The logistical gap between the two sides is very large, and this is not something that can be made up for by the bravery of the generals.

Despite this, the Bao brothers and the Gongsun brothers still supported Guo Peng, advanced and retreated with him, and wanted to fight against Dong Zhuo, and they had a posture of daring to be the first in the world, which was very majestic.

However, such a majestic battle ushered in a turning point in February of the second year of the first peace.

Guo Peng personally led the army to fight Xu Rong, the two sides were short of each other, and the personal guards shot Xu Rong with arrows and wounded Xu Rong, Xu Rong's army was defeated, and Michi was broken.

Guo Peng and Sun Jian immediately led the army in pursuit, and the first layer of defense that Dong Zhuo had worked so hard to build was finally breached.

And at this stall, three days after the Mianchi was breached, on February 16 of the second year of Chuping, Guo Peng received an urgent report from Cheng Li, saying that at the end of the first month, the plain country was invaded by Yuan Shao's general Lu Yi.
