Losing the deterrence of Yecheng, the counties around Yecheng were like fragile lambs, allowing Guo Peng to rage.

The generals of each army set out from all directions and blossomed in full swing. If the county towns cannot resist for an hour, they will be captured and occupied by the Zhendong Army, and then swept the surrounding areas.

Guo Peng himself led his troops to Handan and easily took down Handan, which was not prepared in time. The Prime Minister of Zhao appointed by Yuan Shao fled in panic. Handan was occupied by Guo Peng and obtained a large amount of baggage and food.

Several large armies took down all Wei County except Yecheng without much effort, and Guo Peng even led his army into Zhao State.

There is still war here, and Guo Peng has sent people to digest Wei County, and has begun to send officials and administrative teams to Wei County, and has begun to carry out post-war reconstruction and rule to seize the initiative.

After the experiment, the feasible policies were determined to be established in Jizhou as the army advanced. A group of qualified grassroots officials trained entered Jizhou and began to operate the Qingyanzhou two provinces on the land of Jizhou. It was already a conventional policy.

Guo Peng wanted to turn Jizhou into his own Jizhou, occupying and ruling at the same time. This is not a bandit strategy.

War is a means, and rule is the end.

Yuan Benchu, I want to make you really homeless.

After conquering Handan, Guo Peng paused for a moment and summarized the people's feelings in Jizhou that he had seen since conquering Wei County.

In short, there are manors everywhere, and the fertile land is occupied by powerful landlords.

Many bankrupt farmers who lost their land and homes due to war or various reasons were admitted as private serfs, providing food, utensils, wine and various luxury goods of that era to the owners of the manor, becoming tools for their enjoyment.

The serfs farmed, weaved, raised livestock, made pottery, made iron, brewed wine, and made various luxury goods, creating a perfect manor economy in exchange for a small amount of food.

All the things obtained from hard work are handed over to the owners of the manor for them to enjoy, and some of the features are sold to cities in various places to earn high profits.

Naturally, the government cannot get any of these wealth produced.

This era was a completely paradise for the gentry and powerful landlords, and a hell for the common people.

I have been fighting all the way, and the fertile land is enclosed by the manors and belongs to private ownership.

Mr. Guo knew why Emperor Ling had to sell official positions in West Garden.

The emperor's family had no surplus food. If he didn't sell his official position, he wouldn't even have to sell his official position.

Of course, he didn't spend much money on his official positions on business, and he would not be wronged if he failed.

So while walking, Guo thought, he must not make Liu Xiu's mistake. This is the result of his ancestors making mistakes and future generations paying for the bill, and they also cheated all the common people.

Liu Xiucai is not a chosen son, nor is he a great magistrate. He is the spokesperson elected by the people who own a lot of land and a lot of wealth.

Fair, just and open, and democratic.

Walking on the streets of Handan and breathing in the sweet air of Handan, Mr. Guo grinned.

It is the third day of July.

Mr. Guo planned to continue north after the food supply was consolidated, and at the same time, he threw a large number of sentries to the north to explore Yuan Shao's movements.

At the same time, the army of Qinghe Kingdom was also progressing smoothly by attacking Hanoi and attacking Bohai County.

After the Bohai County and Qinghe Kingdom were captured by Guo Peng and the massive invasion of Gongsun Zan, they were not well managed and restored.

Yuan Shao himself was too busy to take care of himself and had no time to manage the local area, so he allowed the local tyrants to divide the vacant land and expand their property. By the way, he gave Yuan Shao some insignificant money as thanks and compensation.

Their construction results are pretty good, and large areas of manors have been built.

These land-owned people are not powerful characters. Faced with the rapid assault of the army, only a few of them chose to resist and were destroyed.

Bohai County and Qinghe Kingdom basically have no established resistance troops. Each county has only a few dozen or hundreds of armed forces. Facing the fierce regular army, nothing is counted, and it is considered brave if you don’t wet your pants.

However, there are a large number of hungry refugees everywhere. Compared to insignificant resistance, refugees are really troublesome.

Compared with Bohai County and Qinghe Country, which have very weak power, the resistance of Hanoi County is relatively fierce.

Guo Peng ordered the Western Route Army led by Le Jin and Han Hao to attack Hanoi County, and broke into Hanoi County in one fell swoop, defeating Ji County, and seizing Jia County and Xiuwu County.

Among the three counties, except for Xiuwu County, which was finally captured, neither Ji County nor Huojia County resisted and opened the city to surrender.

The magistrate of Xiuwu County scolded Han Hao as a traitor and a traitor, which made Han Hao very angry. So after conquering Xiuwu County, Le Jin allowed Han Hao to kill Xiuwu County.

Han Hao has made great efforts in the successful acquisition of Ji County and Huojia County. His leadership party has done a great job.

After taking Huojia County, Le Jin led his army to advance, and never encountered resistance again. He successfully shot the dog. When the dog met the panicked Zhang Yang, he led an army of almost 10,000.

At first glance, this army was temporarily pieced together, and there was no neat queue or unified military uniforms and standard weapons. It was another hodgepodge.

Han Hao advised Zhang Yang to surrender directly. Zhang Yang thought that he had a grudge with Guo Peng and could not get a good deal, and hated Guo Peng for killing Lu Bu, so he refused to surrender and let the army attack.

"Where did he get the courage to take the initiative to attack?"

Le Jin felt very curious.

So in order to make Zhang Yang realize the cruel reality, Le Jin rushed his army to cover up the killing and used his absolute strength to teach Zhang Yang how to be a person, how to see people, and how to choose a boss.

In just less than an hour, the army that Zhang Yangdong had put together was defeated and fell. Zhang Yang even suffered heavy casualties and was frightened to death and ran away. Le Jin really didn't catch up.

More than 2,000 people were killed, and the rest were basically captured. Then Le Jin commanded the army to surround Huai County, the Hanoi County capital, and trapped Zhang Yang in Huai County. It was June 27th.

Han Hao persuaded surrender again, but was shot away by Zhang Yang with an arrow, so Han Hao was very annoyed and gave up persuading surrender.

"Uncle Zhang Zhi will no longer surrender. For the sake of the general's great cause, Lieutenant Le, I suggest to attack Huai County for forcing it. Even if we cannot break Huai County, as long as our army strengthens the attack, it will change the minds of the people in the city. In a few days, Hanoi County will be owned by me!"

Le Jin nodded and ordered the army to besiege Huai County, which had a very significant effect.

Three days later, a mutiny occurred in Huai County. Zhang Yang's general Yang Chou did not want to die, so he sent someone to attack and kill Zhang Yang, opened the city gate and surrendered, and gave Zhang Yang's head as his confession.

Le Jin was overjoyed and accepted Yang Chou's surrender. Then he ordered Yang Chou to lead his army as a guide to help Le attack other places in Hanoi County.

There was no longer any force of establishment resistance in Hanoi County. A few deadly and hard-working elements were killed one after another, and the counties of Hanoi County were taken down one after another, and the Hanoi strategy was successfully completed.

There is a person next to Zhang Yang, named Dong Zhao, who was originally a subordinate of Yuan Shao.

However, because Dong Zhao's relatives were in Zhang Miao's army, Zhang Miao and Yuan Shao had always had a grudge, so some people slandered that they wanted to kill Dong Zhao. In order to survive, Dong Zhao fled from Yuan Shao's camp and was taken in by Zhang Yang.

When Yang Chou rebelled and killed Zhang Yang, he arrested Dong Zhao, who was desperately protecting his master, and presented it to Le Jin and Han Hao. Han Hao persuaded him to surrender. Dong Zhao closed his eyes and said nothing, which made Le Jin very angry.

Le Jin was about to order the killing of Dong Zhao, but Han Hao quickly stopped him.

"Dong Gongren is very famous. Killing him may cause uneasiness to others and it will be detrimental to Ming Gong's great cause. It would be better to keep him and leave it to Ming Gong for disposal."

Le Jin thought about it, so he followed Han Hao's advice and imprisoned Dong Zhao, and kept it under strict supervision without harming him.

During the entire process of the Zhendong Army's elimination of Zhang Yang, Yuan Shao did not have time to react.

The day when Zhang Yang died was also the day when Yuan Shao read Guo’s manifesto against Yuan.
