At the emperor's order, of course the army must move.

Many people were very excited, especially Guan Yu and Cao Xiu. Unexpectedly, they could join in the fun of the southern expedition to Yizhou.

After the battle of Liangzhou, the elite soldiers and generals under Cao Ren were farming, accumulating, and practicing cavalry.

So far, although cavalry has been trained a lot, there is no chance of actual combat.

Going west to Jincheng County, the Qiang, Xiongnu, Han tyrants, etc. were all intimidated by the Wei army's troops and did not dare to advance, but dared to retreat.

Without Guo Peng's order, the Liangzhou Front Army could not advance westward and continue to expand its territory. They could only train day after day, train, and become familiar with the northwest climate.

When he was bored, Guan Yu and Cao Xiu were freed and could go to Hanzhong to participate in the war and obtain credit.

The two of them set out on the road excitedly and set out on the journey to Hanzhong, leaving Xiahou Yuan, Gao Lan, Yan Liang and others envious and jealous.

Their main task was to use the war horses tamed by Taipu Xianyuyin to practice cavalry, practice cavalry more, and train better and more combat-friendly cavalry, laying the foundation for occupying the entire Liangzhou, eliminating foreign races and re-exploding the Western Regions.

The foundation laid today is all for tomorrow's achievements.

Guo Peng fooled them like this, just like he fooled Yu Jin and the generals of the Northeast.

There is no way, who made him the emperor and who made him more powerful?

Because he obtained a large amount of food and property from Jingzhou, the military expenditure of this part of the Lejin army can be solved by using local materials and does not require additional calls.

Guo Peng only needs to take out a part of the Luoyang treasury and mobilize the savings in the Yongzhou treasury, which is enough to support the Hanzhong Front Army in the war and will not cause too much financial burden.

Through careful governance over the years, God has been treating food and food, and the local treasurys are still very abundant.

There are disasters in some years and some places, but through population migration and timely disaster relief, there is no big impact.

Especially in the past, locust plagues that occurred every few years, through Guo’s strategy of raising ducks in Qingzhou and Yanzhou and other places, there has been no large-scale locust plagues in many years.

There are still small-scale locusts, but they will be discovered by experienced local officials soon and then organized to extinguish them in time. Basically, there will be no locust plague that causes people to lose food.

The treasury in various places is full, especially the population is actually not large, and the grain output in various places is enough to feed more people, so more food is put into the treasury and more are supplied to the army.

There were years when the top leaders of the entire Wei State had not heard of anyone starving to death in some places.

In this case, the people's and materials can be fully mobilized and will not be wasted. In order to start a war, it does not require as high costs as imagined. A strong accounting team will do everything possible to achieve the effect of saving money, and the parts that must be spent will be earned from the results of the war.

For example, the plunder of powerful manors that resist with all their might, and the plundering of war is used to supplement the expenditure on war.

There have been many wars in Yizhou in recent years, and the wealthy have suffered a lot of losses. Fortunately, the foundation is solid, there are not many natural disasters and man-made disasters. There are also flagship products like Shu Jin. Wei State has a lot of demand, so the economic level is very acceptable.

The Wei army would eventually enter Shuzhong. Facing the Shu people, there were also many barbarians with various counties and vassal states. They would inevitably fight and explore Nanzhong, and the benefits would not be small.

At the end of October of the first year of Yande, after the pacification of Jingzhou and the bandit suppression war in the four counties of Jingnan, Jingzhou entered a state of construction.

As the new governor of Jingzhou, Kuai Yue is doing his best to appease the local area and restore order.

Jingzhou was soon restored to pacification, and the only less stable Jiangxia County was also taken over by Guo Peng's trusted officials, and a large number of officials were sent to carry out rural renovation.

Guo Peng plans to build Jiangxia County into a construction model among the three counties in Jingbei.

The four counties in Jingnan also made a lot of space through the war, giving Guo an opportunity to send someone south.

So another group of grassroots officials in the Central Plains went south with the Wei army and began a major rural transformation in the four counties in Jingnan.

Mr. Guo tried very hard to inject the genes of the Guo Wei regime into Jingzhou, so that the emperor would not fall into chaos again when the sky was high and the emperor was far away. What he wanted was actual control rather than symbolic occupation.

Nanjun and Nanyang County remained unmoved for the first time, which was a compromise with the surrendered ministers in Jingzhou, while the other counties were not so easy to discuss.

The place where he bleeded and sacrificed was beaten, he spoke more toughly.

So in addition to the most populous Nanjun and Nanyang County, Guo Peng established military farms in Jingzhou, counted a large number of household registrations, and included them in military farms.

Then he sent a team of mature grassroots officials from the Central Plains to Jingzhou to be responsible for management, and soon seized a considerable amount of power space.

The surrendered ministers in Jingzhou were caught off guard.

In other words, Mr. Guo did not attack their private area back garden, so they did not jump up like a furry cat.

But Mr. Guo has never swore that he would not do anything else.

Faced with such a situation, the wealthy families who were willing to seize the space for profit found that they could not rob the emperor. They found that the emperor's control over the grassroots was unexpectedly strong, so they inevitably followed the mental journey of the powerful people in the Central Plains again.

Now the emperor has great prestige, great power, large army, and strong combat power. We can't fight, so just wait.

Wait for when the emperor dies and his control over the grassroots level has weakened. What is built now will be ours in the future.

They exerted the Aq spirit and the Hindu spirit, turned their attention to the future, and left their hopes to future generations.

But they were not talking about it, they really planned to do this. As long as they are still here and can still pass on the inheritance, then what belongs to the emperor and the government now will be theirs in the future.

Who made these places closer to them?

It is not an ancient legend that a strong dragon does not suppress local snakes. It is not easy to eradicate these local snakes.

However, this is not what the Guo Wei regime needs to start doing now. Although Guo Peng has already made plans, the implementation and implementation of the plan are not a matter of one or two days. What we need to do now is to find the next goal for the Wei army in Jingzhou.

The next target of the Wei army was naturally the Shu Han regime, which was still in a hostile state.

The destruction of Jingzhou was too smooth, and the belief that the Guo Wei regime had made the world work together was unprecedentedly strong. After doing some calculations, the Ministry of Finance no longer opposed it and supported Guo Peng's combat plan to recruit Guanzhong troops into Hanzhong.

With the guarantee of money and food, and the powerful military production system of the Wei Empire as a backing, the Wei army's advance became very simple.

In the Qinling Mountains, the new Shu Road, which was repaired with the lives of countless captive aliens and sects, played a great role. Although it is not that there is no risk at all, the newly repaired Shu Road is indeed much easier to walk than before.

The 80,000 Wei troops formed a comprehensive oppression of Yizhou from two directions, and the strong offensive situation shocked and wavered Yizhou.

The Wei army marched from Hanzhong and Jingzhou, stationed troops and performed martial arts in great numbers, which made the surrendered factions in Yizhou shocked and scared. They ran back and forth with extremely uneasy, connecting with their colleagues of the surrendered faction, constantly putting pressure on the surrendered faction, trying to surrender directly to avoid the war.

Under this circumstance, the Wei army stopped moving forward, and only performed martial arts and prepared, did not launch an attack immediately, nor could it see any signs of launching an attack immediately, and it seemed that it was just a deterrent.

So the officials of the pro-war faction submitted a letter to Liu Zhang repeatedly.
