"Let it go."

After hearing Cheng Yu's inquiry, Guo Peng's face turned cold.

"If Xun Wen has talent and great talents, of course, the more talented people will be better. However, it will not be impossible to lose it. If Xun Wen is not as important as others imagine, I will use it if I want to use it, and if I don't want to use it, they will not be reluctant to leave Xun Wenruo for the sake of profit."

"Then the lord thinks that all these high gentry sects can be used?"

"Without, why not? Who else can I use without them?"

Guo Peng shook his head: "But they are the same as Xun Wenruo, not as important as they imagined. If they can't recognize this, I will help them recognize it clearly. Zhongde, you are still responsible for staying behind in this action. I let Yuan Hao be your deputy. You must focus on Hongnong's direction. Once there is a problem with Hongnong's direction, if I am outside, you must notify me in time."

"Understood."

Cheng Yu nodded decisively.

The problems I have sorted out are almost done, and the next thing is the problems of Hongnong.

Zhang Ji and Duan Wei, what would these two idiots who couldn't recognize their own strength and the trend of the times, take action?

Guo Peng was a little looking forward to it.

At the end of August, the news that Guo Peng had promoted the Duke of Wei to establish the Duke of Wei was sent back to Hongnong. When Duan Wei and Zhang Ji learned about this, they almost jumped up happily.

They immediately found Jia Xu and had a meeting.

"Guo Zifeng has ascended the throne. He is already Duke Wei and has established the State of Wei. Now, we have nothing to worry about. Even if there is a problem, it is Guo Zifeng's problem. It has nothing to do with us. What do you think, Wenhe?"

Duan Wei lost his usual calmness and looked at Jia Xu very eagerly.

Zhang Ji also looked at Jia Xu very eagerly.

Jia Xu looked at them silently.

"Did the two generals really decide?"

"Nonsense! How long have you been talking?"

Zhang Ji waved his hand impatiently: "Guo Zifeng has become the first person, so we will be the second person and the third person. Wenhe, don't you want to do it?"

"Xu has no qualifications."

Jia Xu shook his head silently: "Have the two generals thought about their respective bans?"

“That’s natural.”

Zhang Ji nodded proudly.

After previous discussions, Zhang Ji and Duan Wei determined the number they wanted.

The two knew that the place they were staying was broken, and for harmony, they symbolically made a symbolic appointment with Chang'an as the boundary.

The west of Chang'an belongs to Zhang Ji and the east belongs to Duan Wei. Zhang Ji asked for the title of "Yong", while Duan Wei took the title of "Yu", and the two of them were named Duke.

Having said that, both west of Chang'an and east of Chang'an are already vast and sparsely populated, and Liangzhou may be a little better than Guanzhong. So with this idea, Zhang Ji, who had a strong military strength than Duan Wei, was treated as the territory west of Chang'an to establish the Yong Kingdom.

The Sili School Command and Liangzhou west of Chang'an belonged to Zhang Ji.

Duan Wei had no choice but to take away the territory east of Chang'an and establish the Yu Kingdom, but there was really no population from Chang'an to Luoyang.

So the two of them were still stationed in Hongnong. Hongnong County was divided into two parts, with the Hongnong Palace as the boundary. The west side was returned to Zhangji and Duanwei in the east side, which was equivalent to Zhangji occupying an enclave.

There is no way, here is the most populous. Without this place, there is no place to replenish military rations.

So after this division, both of them became famous monarchs, divided the territory west of Luoyang, leaving behind a Hongnong Palace for the little emperor, and even Hongnong City was not spared.

Then, based on the "joke" that Jia Xu initially proposed, the two thought that instead of being targeted at that time, it would be better to drag everyone into the water together, and no one should say anything about each other.

Jia Xu pretended to stop him and scolded the two of them harshly. The two were furious and scolded Jia Xu, not allowing him to speak again.

Afterwards, Duan Wei and Zhang Ji discussed and came up with a result.

He was granted the title of King of Yizhou Liu Zhang and sent the title of "Shu". He was allowed to use Yizhou as the territory of the country and establish Shu. He called himself the King of Shu. He treated himself the same as the king of Shu in the early Han Dynasty. Like Guo Peng, he was allowed to establish all officials and ministers and establish ancestral temples to worship his ancestors.

He was granted the title of King of Jingzhou Governor and General Liu Biao of Zhennan, and was granted the title of "Chu". He was allowed to use Jingzhou as the territory of the country, establish the State of Chu, and claimed to be King of Chu, and treated the same as Guo Peng.

He also gave the nominal Yangzhou Governor and General Zhenwu of Liu Yao, and was granted the title of "Wu". He was the only fief of Yangzhou counties in the east of Jiangxi Province, and established the State of Wu and was called King of Wu, with the same treatment.

After the tribes of the three royal kings of the royal family were divided, Zhang Ji and Duan Wei were very flirtatious and named Duke Xu to Tao Qian and Duke Xu. They were allowed to use the counties of Xuzhou as the territory of the country and establish the State of Xu, and the treatment was the same.

It happened that at this time Sun Ce sent someone to pay tribute to the court and asked for a general with a title to facilitate his rule in Jiangdong.

Duan Wei and Zhang Ji both fought with Sun Ce's father Sun Jian in Dong Zhuo's army. They knew Sun Jian's bravery and Sun Ce had already gained an advantage in Jiangdong. With the mentality of a mess, the two of them came up with a very bad idea.

Liu Yao's title of King Wu was changed to King Yue, and the title of King Yue was changed to Yue, and his fiefs were Yuzhang County and Kuaiji County, and the Kingdom of Yue was established.

Then Danyang County and Wu County were granted the title of Sun Ce, and the title of Wu was also given to Sun Ce, and the Duke of Wu was granted the title of Wu, and the Duke of Wu was approved to establish the Duke of Wu.

Divide Yangzhou in Jiangdong into two parts and hand it over to Liu Yao and Sun Ce, and let them fight on their own.

Do not care about his life and death.

In this way, Zhang Ji and Duan Wei were very happy to find that many countries and Chinas suddenly appeared in the entire Han Empire.

Guo Peng's Duchy of Wei, Tao Qian's Duchy of Xu, Liu Zhang's Shu, Liu Biao's Chu, Liu Yao's Yue, Sun Ce's Duchy of Wu, and Zhang Ji's Duchy of Yong and Duan Wei's Duchy of Yu.

The eight countries are united.

The world seemed to have returned to the early Han Dynasty in an instant, and to the era when the Han Empire established by Liu Bang and the kingdoms of many princes and kings of different surnames were coexisted.

But in Jia Xu's view, this situation was more like the Warring States Period than the early Han Dynasty.

Similarly, Guo Peng also views it this way.

Guo Peng immediately learned about Zhang Ji and Duan Wei's "secretization plan" and expressed his permission. He felt that the sealing plan was quite complete and none of them were left behind. Even Tao Qian and Liu Yao, who were half dead, were not left behind, and took care of them together.

The great vassal states were established together, while the Zhou royal family was very weak and had almost no ability to control the princes.

Obviously, isn’t the Han emperor the current one the same as the Zhou emperor?

What soldiers and horses do you have? What generals do you have? What strength do you have?

A commander with a bareback, even his personal safety is worth discussing, let alone other things.

The existence of the Han emperor is equivalent to the Zhou emperor.

Now, it depends on whether those ambitious princes will accept these gifts and transform themselves into righteous princes.

The answer is yes.

Guo Peng has no doubts about this.

So Guo Peng calmly prepared the army and arranged for generals to launch an attack on the Southern Xiongnu at any time.
