Since the end of the war, Guo Peng had already begun to build roads and stations for advancement, and stored food and grass along the way and set up management personnel to facilitate marching.

A large amount of intelligence information learned through Han Hao's channels can also come in handy, allowing Guo Peng to learn that many people under Zhang Yang's command have been seeking other ways out because they do not think that Zhang Yang can fight against Guo Peng's attack.

Even Guo Peng was so brave and good at fighting, even though Lu Bu was chopped off his head, let alone Zhang Yang.

In addition, Zhang Yang took the initiative to approach Yuan Shao, so he sought Yuan Shao's help, gave Yuan Shao a lot of food and fodder, and even plundered the people to get gifts that made Yuan Shao happy, so the people in the county were very dissatisfied.

Before the war began, Zhang Yang looked like he was about to be defeated, which looked quite funny.

After Guo Peng learned about it, he knew that he was sure to win.

After a little understanding of the entire plan and the current situation, Guo Jia suddenly proposed a plan that surprised everyone.

"If you can take down Hanoi County, you can directly threaten Yuan Shao's core. In the Yecheng of Wei County, the cavalry will arrive day and night, as fast as lightning. If you can take down Hanoi as fast as possible, and then immediately attack Yecheng, it is also called taking down Yuan Shao's army will collapse without fighting, and people's hearts will disperse directly."

Guo Jia pointed to Yecheng on the map and proposed this bold idea.

Many civil and military officials were stunned by it.

The reason is no different, this plan is indeed quite risky.

First of all, Yuan Shao and Zhang Yang are in close alliances, and the territories of the two sides are constantly in exchange for contact. It is very difficult to catch both sides off guard through a surprise attack and it is difficult not to be discovered.

Moreover, Yuan Shao himself knew the importance of Yecheng and would not leave heavy troops to guard it. Yuan Shao would not be as loopholes as Lu Bu, and he also had many capable people and great sages under his command, so he would not be prepared in advance.

Chen Gong immediately raised an objection.

"A few years ago, I heard that Yuan Shao had just become the governor of Jizhou. Not long after he became the governor of Jizhou, the rebels from the Black Mountain Yellow Turban attacked Jizhou, took down Yecheng, and obtained all the officials and generals under Yuan Shao's command. Yuan Shao was away at that time, and the army was in chaos, and many civil and military officials were crying.

But Yuan Shao was not afraid of danger, calm and composed, drinking and eating as usual, stabilizing people's hearts. Soon, a traitor appeared among the Yellow Turban thieves, protecting Yuan Shao and his family, and helping Yuan Shao counterattack Yecheng, and the crisis was lifted."

Chen Gong looked at Guo Jia and shook his head repeatedly: "Fengxiao's plan was very sudden, but Yuan Shao had experienced such a thing. He suffered a loss once and would not suffer a second time, and would not be unprepared. Even if we could be surprised, would Yecheng be unprepared?"

All the generals thought what Chen Gong said made sense.

Xi Zhong frowned, looked at the map, and said nothing.

Guo Peng asked, "Zhicai, what do you think?"

Xi Zhong pursed his lips when he heard this, and then said, "Mr. Ming, I'm thinking that we have to deal with this battle, not only Zhang Yang, but also Yuan Shao. We can't take it too much.

Yuan Shao would not misunderstand the truth that Zhang Yang was attacked by us, no matter how fast he was, Yuan Shao would definitely get news. Then, he would inevitably order the army stationed in Fanyang to go south, attack Dongjun, and besiege Wei to rescue Zhao. In this way, our army would go to war on two fronts."

Xi Zhong's words made Guo Peng nod.

"Yes, Zhang Yang is insignificant in this battle. Once a war against Zhang Yang is started, it will be equivalent to a war against Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao will never let us take Hanoi easily, and will inevitably move troops south. In this case, attacking Zhang Yang is equivalent to attacking Yuan Shao."

Guo Peng slowly spoke: "Zhang Yang does not have much ability. Before our army could move troops, he was disorganized. It is not worth mentioning. However, there are many capable people under Yuan Shao's command, so he would not have thought of this. It is better to attack Yuan Shao than to attack Zhang Yang in this battle."

After Guo Peng finished speaking, he changed the nature of this battle directly.

Not just attacking Hanoi, but also attacking Jizhou.

Once you encounter Zhang Yang, it will inevitably trigger Yuan Shao's rebound.

so……

It would be better to just do something against Yuan Shao directly?

The strategic thinking of a group of people immediately changed.

Instead of being afraid of Yuan Shao's side attack, it is better to directly define Yuan Shao as the main target of attack. Zhang Yang is just a trivial little bug and can be killed with one stretched out.

So Xi Zhong strongly suggested that Guo Peng arrange two armies, one as the main line and the other as the auxiliary line, and the auxiliary army takes Hanoi, and Guo Peng personally leads the main force to attack Yuan Shao.

"Hanoi can be easily taken, and Ming Duke can send a side army to attack. Hanoi can definitely be taken. Attacking Jizhou requires a large army to attack, and the main force of the army will attack, first destroy the Fanyang garrison, and then directly take Yecheng. It will take several months to seize Yecheng with our army's newly equipped catapult."

Guo Peng nodded and agreed with Xi Zhong's statement.

Then the army began to prepare.

Preparations to destroy Yuan Shao are about to begin.

Military staff members should discuss the Jizhou strategy that had been discussed a long time ago with the Hanoi strategy plan proposed by Han Hao.

Since this time it is a two-line battle, the requirements are particularly large and the risks are not small. We must make a complete war deduction before the war begins, and combine the obtained information to make a complete assessment of Yuan Shao's forces and Zhang Yang's forces.

Not only that, we also need to evaluate the possible intervention of other major forces in the world.

Li Jue and Guo Si's Guanzhong power, Yuan Shu's power, Tao Qian's power, Liu Biao's power, and the forces of the northern Xiongnu, Wuhuan and Xianbei are comprehensively evaluated.

The large amount of precious information from various forces provided by Linziying for several years has been able to play its greatest role.

First of all, we need to discuss the possible intervention. This discussion should be discussed before the formal march to prepare for defense.

Xi Zhong was the first to rule out that the Liangzhou Group led by Li Jue might interfere with Guo Peng's battle to destroy Yuan Shao.

The reason is very simple. When Ma Riyan arrived, he secretly informed Guo Peng that they were planning to join forces with another warlord force in Liangzhou, with forces led by Ma Teng and Han Sui, to counterattack Li Jue's forces.

In other words, even if Li Jue wants to interfere in this battle, he will be seized by the literati and officials in the court and subvert their rule in Chang'an.

Even if the literati and Ma Teng and Han Sui's coalition were too incompetent, Li Jue's army could not interfere with the war. Therefore, threats from the west could be eliminated.

Then came Liu Biao.

Guo Jia analyzed from the information he received that the chance of Liu Biao intervening in this battle was too small. First of all, if Liu Biao wants to intervene in this battle, he needs to pass through Yuan Shu's sphere of influence. Yuan Shu has a grudge against Liu Biao. With Yuan Shu's scrupulous and vindictive character, if Liu Biao sends troops, Yuan Shu will definitely take advantage of the situation.

Therefore, although Liu Biao had joined forces with Yuan Shao before, because Yuan Shu was in the middle, the possibility of Liu Biao sending troops north was extremely low.

"Although Liu Jingsheng was the governor of Jingzhou and the general of Zhennan, he owned fertile soil in Jingzhou and had 100,000 armors, I saw that he was a person who was a good person who had more than his achievements and had less progress and was not enough to worry about it."

Guo Jia saw through Liu Biao's essence at first sight and directly asserted that Liu Biao might support him, but he would never send troops north to help Yuan Shao.

So Liu Biao's threat was also ruled out.

Then Tao Qian and Yuan Shu are left.
