Guo Jia, the ghost of the strongest military division

Chapter 1223

Ma Chao's retreat was expected by Guo Jia.

Now that Guo Jia has occupied the Jiange, there is nothing he can do with his ability, and it is wise to retreat earlier.

He had already been frightened by Guo Jia, so naturally he didn't dare to stroke the tiger's whiskers easily.

"My lord, should we take advantage of Ma Chao's unstable foothold and send troops to destroy them?"

Zhang Ren asked earnestly.

He admired the methods of the new lord extremely.

They won half of Yizhou without a single soldier. The Jiange of the garrison looked down on Chengdu. Neither Ma Chao, the defeated general, nor Liu Zhang in Chengdu, dared to face it squarely.

Not only that, but Liu Zhang also sent a large amount of food and grass materials to Zhang Ren and his so-called rebels. Zhang Ren and others were also proud.

No need!

Guo Jia smiled lightly.

By taking down the Jiange, he is already in an invincible position. As for what the two of them are doing, he doesn't bother to ask. If a dog bites a dog, it's none of his business?
He just needs to watch the play here quietly.

"Right now our troops are not strong enough to swallow the whole of Yizhou, let them be free for a while. Anyway, we have already won the Jiange and occupied the advantage."

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said, "General Zhang, don't need to be nervous, it's better to relax."

Relax!

Zhang Ren smiled wryly, how could he relax.

The whole family died under the mediocrity of Liu Zhang.

Zhang Ren wished he could take down Chengdu and kill that bastard Liu Zhang with his own hands.

At the beginning, he was loyal to Liu Zhang, but unexpectedly, he changed back to this ending.

"At present, Jiange has fallen into our hands, but the surrounding counties are still in a state of autonomy. In order to prevent disasters, it is better to bring these counties into management as soon as possible."

Guo Jiasi said slowly.

After defeating Jiange, Liu Zhang's power was firmly locked in Shu County, and Guanghan County and the western part of Berkshire fell into Guo Jia's hands.

In addition to the Hanzhong County that Guo Jia had previously won, Guo Jia now has three counties.

Among these three counties, Hanzhong has been emptied, and the other places have almost been devastated by the Xiliang army, and the people have also been displaced.

Guo Jia wanted to gain a firm foothold in Yizhou, and it was not enough to count on the [-] to [-] Yizhou soldiers.

Right now, Liu Zhang has something to ask of him, and he dare not neglect food and other materials, but the two sides will turn against each other sooner or later.

Once the two sides turned against each other, Jiange's [-] garrison would face the danger of running out of food.

The cost of transporting grain from Chang'an was really too high. Guo Jia didn't want to waste money and people at non-critical moments.

"General Zhang, I merged Brazil and Guanghan into Dongguang County, and appointed you as the prefect of Xiguang, responsible for the safety of Xiguang County."

promise!
Zhang Ren cupped his fists.

Guo Jia is willing to reuse him, so he is naturally grateful.

Badong and Guanghan occupied almost half of Yizhou's territory, and his power as prefect was very large.

"Order Yan Yan to lead an army of five thousand to guard Jiangyou County, order Lei Tong to lead an army of five thousand to guard Jiameng Pass, and order Wu Lan to lead an army to garrison fields around Jiange in case there is no need."

Guo Jia ordered.

Jiangyou is the throat of the Yinping Trail, and a military horse is kept here to prevent Liu Zhang from following Ma Chao's example and bypassing Jiange from the trail to enter Xiguang County.

Ma Chao led the remnants to Badong. In order to prevent Ma Chao from attacking, he had to stay at Jiameng Pass with an army.

As for Wu Lan's farming, it was just in case.

Only in this way can we ensure safety.

Seeing Guo Jia's order, Zhang Ren naturally had no objection.

The hero sees the same thing, and he also intends to do so.

In addition...

Guo Jia paused, and said: "Issuing a notice calling on the fleeing people to go home and farm, and the government will distribute grain and farming tools so that they can live and work in peace."

Water without fish is a dead fish, and a city without people is an empty city.

If you want to gain a foothold in Xiguang County, you must let the people come back.

this……

Hearing what Guo Jia said, Zhang Ren was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a while, and didn't speak.

what happened?
Guo Jia asked puzzledly.

Lord!

Zhang Ren was a little uncomfortable.

He was born as a military general, and he is good at leading troops in war, but he really can't do civil affairs if he is asked to do so.

"My lord, my subordinates really can't handle this matter. If it ruins your plan, wouldn't it be a crime?"

Zhang Ren scratched his head and said.

He really wasn't that material.

Ha ha!

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said, "Trust me, you can do it. Isn't it civil affairs? It's almost the same as fighting. General Zhang can do wars, and civil affairs is no problem."

It's not that he values ​​Zhang Ren, but that there is no suitable person at hand.

Lord!

Old Zhang Ren blushed, he really wasn't such a material.

Marching and fighting is okay, but commanding a group of farmers to plant the land and rebuild their homes will cost him his life.

No matter what he said, he didn't dare to answer.

It's a small matter to make a fool of yourself, but Guo Jia's big plan is big if it breaks.

At this time, a report came from outside and several spies were caught.

spy!

Hearing this, Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhang Ren in confusion.

When is this, there are still spies?
Zhang Ren also looked perplexed, not knowing what happened.

Bring them up!
Guo Jia suddenly became curious and wanted to see what the origins of these spies were.

After a while, three people were pushed forward by the soldiers.

The head of a middle-aged scribe has very bright eyes, and the other two are also very extraordinary.

"Isn't this Fa Xiaozhi?"

Seeing this person, Zhang Ren couldn't help calling out.

Fa Xiaozhi?
Hearing this name, Guo Jia was also taken aback.

Fa Xiaozhi is Fa Zheng.Fazheng was from Fufengmei County, the place where Dong Zhuo built Wubao. He came from a famous family and was the grandson of Fazhen.Due to the rebellion of Dong Zhuo, the famine in the pass and the famine in the whole world, Fazheng and his friend Meng Da from the same county went to Shu to rely on Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang was not a good man. Appointed as a lieutenant in the military council.Fa Zhenghuai was not recognized for his talent, and was slandered by people in the prefecture.

So while relying on Ma Chao, he wrote a letter to Fazheng, asking him to help Ma Chao and achieve a great cause.

After Fazheng received Zhang Song's letter, Fazheng was very happy.

In Zhang Song's letter, Ma Chao's praise of a flower is very polite and virtuous.

At this time, Ma Chao was threatening Chengdu, and Liu Zhang was always ready to escape. Fazheng saw that this guy was unreliable, so he secretly came to the vicinity of Jiange.

His talent is much stronger than Zhang Song's. Zhang Song can be reused by Ma Chao, and Fazheng can naturally do the same.

It's a pity that Fazheng's dream didn't last long, and Ma Chao was actually defeated by Zhang Ren.

He couldn't go back to Chengdu, and Ma Chao couldn't count on it either. He had no choice but to take a detour to the north, hoping to return to his hometown in Chang'an.

Unexpectedly, he was captured by patrolling soldiers and sent to Guo Jia.
