225 Can they still call themselves Han Chen?

"Are you fighting?"

When Guo Peng heard that the princes in the alliance in the Sour Zao Camp fought each other, Bao Xin looked surprised.

"Yes, the governor of Yanzhou, Liu Dai, and the prefect of Dongjun, Qiao Mao, fought. The two completely ignored the alliance and started fighting directly on the sour jujube. It is said that Qiao Mao did not obey the orders of Liu Dai, who was the governor. Liu Dai was angry and ordered an attack.

It seems that Liu Dai has the upper hand now, Qiao Mao is in danger. Then, due to shortage of food, the other troops sent people to plunder food everywhere. Chenliu Prefect Zhang Miao was very angry and sent troops to defend the county towns. Chenliu County was in chaos, and the alliance was already dead in name only."

Guo Peng held a military meeting in his tent and told the matter about it to his staff and senior officers.

Finally, Guo Peng concluded: "So, in fact, we no longer have logistics, our food can no longer be replenished. There are not many people in the Sour Jujube Camp, and everyone is working hard for their own food. Who can take care of us?"

After Guo Peng finished his summary, the camp fell into death silence.

"It's all here. As long as you break through Gong County, Luoyang is near and the traitors are near and now, we have no food?"

Shaoqing, Bao Tao spoke with an unbelievable expression: "The challenge to Dong Daye has not been completed yet, and they have started to harm each other? Dong Zhuo is right in front of him, and they are fighting for a small matter?"

Guo Jia and Xi Zhong frowned and said nothing, and the generals in the tent were shocked and puzzled on their faces.

"That's the case. At present, our army has only been in stockpiling food for about twenty days."

Guo Peng sighed: "Food is the life of a large army. If there is no food, how can you fight? He is actually regarded as a joke by them when he challenged Dong Daye? It's ridiculous..."

Everyone in the tent looked extremely bad.

Suddenly, Wei Zi said, "General, can't we still contact Yuan Highway? Yuan Highway is stationed in Luyang. We crossed Yingchuan to ask Yuan Highway to support some food and grass. How about it?"

Guo Jia immediately shook his head.

"No, even if Yuan Gaolu promises to support us, this grain road is far from being safe, and once Dong Zhuo is discovered, Dong Zhuo can send troops to cut off our grain road at any time.

Once this new food route is cut off, we really have no choice. If there is no other way, instead of withdrawing troops at that time, it is better to stop them now and withdraw troops now."

"Retreat now?"

Wei Zi stood up suddenly: "Then what are we fighting for so long? Seeing the traitors right in front of us, we are going to withdraw our troops now? Are so many lives going to be for nothing?"

Zhang Fei supports Wei Zi's view very much.

"Yes, General, you can't retreat now! Otherwise, our brothers would all die in vain?"

"But if the troops are not withdrawn, how can the problem of food be solved?"

Guo Jia spoke with an extremely calm expression: "Even if you give small hu of food to the soldiers, it will only last for a month at most. The enemy's food supply is unobstructed. Although the walls of Gong County are not tall and deep, if more than 10,000 enemy troops stick to each other, can we really break Gong County within one month?"

Wei Zi and Zhang Fei opened their mouths, not knowing what to say.

It is very difficult to capture the city.

If you don’t eat, you won’t be able to survive.

Everyone was speechless, and then looked at Guo Peng together.

Guo Peng needs to make a final decision.

Guo Peng took a deep breath and slowly stood up.

"I raised an army to attack Dong Zhuo, and to welcome the emperor back to Luoyang, stabilize the world, so that the world will not be in chaos, and that the people of the world will not suffer from displaced. Therefore, I am determined to advance and fight against the thieves, and have no time to take care of them.

But I never expected that in the eyes of some people, fighting against traitors is just an excuse. The struggle we are waiting for is just a futile smile. They don’t care whether the traitors are being attacked, they only care whether their desires are satisfied!"

Guo Peng suddenly increased his voice: "It's all a group of bastards! Everyone is well-read poetry and books and is known as famous scholars. They have received such great favors from the country but do not want to be rewarded. They say the words of saints, but they are actually unsatisfied with desire! Can they still regard themselves as Han officials?"

Guo Peng took a few heavy breaths and closed his eyes.

"Ming Gong..."

Xi Zhong walked forward: "Ming Gong, although the current situation is dangerous, there is not no way out."

"What's the solution?"

Guo Peng asked immediately.

"Split the troops, head south, attack the Kan clan, and then attack Dagu through the Kan clan, attacked from behind, broke the Dagu Pass, joined forces with Yuan Shu's general Sun Jian, and drove directly to Luoyang! Then Gong County's defense will have no meaning, and the overall situation has been decided!"

Xi Zhong told Guo Peng what he thought and what he thought, and also told the senior officers present.

After listening, everyone stopped talking for a long time.

"Zhicai, this is a dangerous move. If you cannot successfully attack the Kan and Oguchi Pass, the situation of that army will be very dangerous."

Guo Peng watched Xi Zhong.

"We have no constant force in the military and no constant force in the water. If we want to win, the other party may not want to. Ming Gong, we really have no other way. If we don't try it, it's better to withdraw our troops as soon as possible. Without food and grass, it's really not a joke."

After Xi Zhong finished speaking, he stopped talking, but just looked at Guo Peng.

Others also looked at Guo Peng.

Guo Peng narrowed his eyes and thought carefully.

"You guys, you have reached this point, and I am unwilling to withdraw my troops like this."

Guo Peng's words set the tone.

"I am not willing to withdraw my troops!"

Weiz was the first to respond.

"The same goes for flying!"

Zhang Fei responded the second time.

Afterwards, the generals responded one after another, and Gongsun Zan once again asked to take on this responsibility.

So everyone decided to adopt Xi Zhong's strategy and take a risk.

In fact, it cannot be said to be risky. Strictly speaking, every military operation is risky, but this time it is a little more dangerous.

This time, Guo Peng did not agree to Gongsun Zan, but decided to carry out this task himself, personally lead the elite troops of the headquarters to launch a surprise attack at the fastest speed, and catch Dong Zhuo off guard.

Guo Peng decided to lead the headquarters' personal guards Cao Chun's troops and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and two generals Zhang Fei and five thousand elite troops to attack the Cang family, and also brought Guo Jia with him.

Then he kept the main force, led by Bao Xin, Xi Zhong as the military advisor, and Gongsun Zan was responsible for the front line command.

Zhao Yun, Guo Lie, Gongsun Yueweizi and others stayed to help and continued to attack Gong County and attract their attention.

On September 24, Guo Peng took advantage of the night to lead his troops to the Daying of Gong County and led his troops to the Qianshi Town.

Early in the morning of the 25th, Guo Peng led his army to attack the Xiangshi Town, killed more than 1,000 defenders, and then rushed to Dagu Pass without stopping.

At that time, Sun Jian was leading his troops to attack Ogu Pass, taking advantage of the sufficient logistics supply and the advantage that Dong Zhuo's main force was pinned by Guo Peng to suppress the defenders of Ogu Pass, and the attack on Ogu Pass was full of dangers.
