Just as Chen Shi and Qin Yi were buying silk and green pottery from the people of Shangdang with real gold and good money, the Luoyang court controlled by Dong Zhuo was chaotic again, adding new variables to the already turbulent and unstable situation. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Because there are more and more people opposing Dong Zhuo in various states in the world, except for Sili and Liangzhou, who still pay taxes to the imperial court, other states have delayed for various reasons, and the income of the imperial court is getting smaller and smaller, and the government treasury is short of money and grain, which is very tense.

In order to alleviate the financial crisis, Dong Zhuo ordered the abolition of the five-baht coin, which had been in circulation in Dahan for hundreds of years, in August of the first year of Chuping, and replaced it with small coins with light weight and inferior quality for circulation in the market. In order to loot wealth, he also ordered the bronze people, copper goods, and copper bells in Luoyang, Chang'an and other places to be destroyed and turned into copper to make money.

Dong Zhuo's move is undoubtedly a very bad disorderly government, and this kind of blatant behavior of stealing money from the hands of the people has directly led to warlords everywhere to follow suit, making people lose trust in the circulation of currency, and can only barter in the future, seriously hindering commercial exchanges.

Soon after the chaos came out, the Dong coalition army stationed in Suozao finally had infighting, and Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, was dissatisfied with the Taishou Qiaomao of Dongjun, and suddenly sent his strong men to kill Qiaomao. The coalition forces were in an uproar and fell apart in an instant. Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling was seriously ill, and because he was dissatisfied with the practice of infighting among the various coalition forces of Sujuo, he entrusted all the soldiers and horses he brought from Yuzhou to Sun Jian.

Sun Jian had already fought with Dong Zhuo's subordinates Zhang Ji and Hua Xiong in Liang County before this. There was a very powerful strategist named Jia Xu in Zhang Ji's tent, and he came up with a clever plan for Zhang Ji to lure the enemy into the depths, but Sun Jian led his troops to advance lightly, and was ambushed by Zhang Ji and Huaxiong near Liang County. Sun Jian suffered heavy losses in this battle, if it weren't for his henchman Zu Mao wearing his red curtain to lead away the pursuers, Sun Jian was afraid that he would not be able to escape back to Luyang.

Sun Jian won Kong Ling's Yuzhou soldiers and horses, and immediately regrouped and led the army to fight again. This time he became cautious, first let his subordinate Cheng Pu lead a small number of men and horses to bluff, pretending that the army was going to attack Dagu Pass, luring Zhang Ji to send troops to rescue, but in fact, he ambushed the main force in the Yangrenju area. Zhang Ji was worried about the loss of Dagu Pass, so he sent Hua Xiong to lead the army to reinforcements, but he was ambushed by Sun Jian. Hua Xiong was defeated, seriously wounded, and fled to Luhun Pass under the desperate protection of his personal guards.

After Sun Jian's victory, he immediately sent troops to Dagu Pass, taking advantage of the unstable heart of the defenders of Dagu Pass, and captured the pass in one fell swoop. Dagu Pass is less than 100 miles away from the capital division of Luoyang, and when the news came to Luoyang, Dong Zhuo was shocked and hurriedly dispatched Hanoi Li Dao back to help the Beijing division.

Soon after Li Wei led 10,000 elite Xiliang cavalry to withdraw from Hanoi, the Montenegrin Army, which had been silent for several years, suddenly poured out of its nest and launched a frenzied attack and plunder against Wei County and Zhao State in Hanoi and Jizhou.

Six years ago, after the main force of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was suppressed by the imperial court, the peasants of Jizhou and Hanoi around Montenegro revolted one after another, organizing themselves under various names to resist the tyranny of the imperial court. The composition of the Montenegrin Army was very complicated, and the big forces with names and banners were: Montenegro, Huanglong, Zuo Xiao, Guo Daxian, Yu Yigen, Qingniujiao, Zhang Baiqi, Liu Shi, Zuo Zhangba, Pinghan, Daji, Pengzai, Lei Gong, Fuyun, Feiyan, Baique, Yang Feng, Yu Poison, Wulu, Li Damu, Bai Huan, Qigu, Ku Da, and other 25 teams.

Although the Black Mountain Army was composed of landless refugees with low combat effectiveness, it could not withstand their huge number of as many as 500,000, and they were good at using the valley and jungle terrain to cover the battle, so although it was only 400 miles away from the capital and Luoyang, it was never really wiped out by the imperial court.

Taking advantage of the emptiness in Hanoi, the Montenegrin army soon swept to the Mengjin ferry, and the news spread to Hedong, and Guo Da finally couldn't help but strike again. He sent people to send a lot of gold, silver and jewelry to Yang Feng, and invited Yang Feng to attack Niu Fu with him, after the matter was completed, Hedong returned to Yang Feng, Guo Da led the army to cross the river to capture Hongnong, cutting off the retreat of the Western Liang army.

Lü Bu's bottom line for Yang Feng was not to attack the six counties in the northeast of Hedong controlled by Wang Yi, and as for the grievances between him and Guo Da and the transaction with Niu Fu, Lü Bu would not interfere.

Yang Feng felt that letting Niu Fu stay in Yucheng was indeed a great threat, and Guo Da's condition was to give up Hedong, so Yang Feng agreed to Guo Da's proposal. Yang Feng suggested that Guo Daxian lead the army to feint and attack Niu Fu alone, and then Yang Feng led the army to pretend to go to support Niu Fu, and then he could ruthlessly attack Niu Fu.

Guo Da and Yang Feng were both from the Baibo Army, so it was naturally easier to cooperate than with the regular army of the imperial court, and the strategy they set up was very simple, but it was the most practical to deal with Niu Fu.

Guo Da led the army from Xie County, all the way to Yucheng. At this time, Niu Fu had already received the news that Sun Jian had broken through Dagu Pass and the Montenegrin army was making trouble in Hanoi, and he was panicked when he saw the Bai Bo army attacking again. Without waiting for Yang Feng to send troops, he hurriedly sent someone to contact Yang Feng, hoping that Yang Feng would come with him to deal with Guo Da.

In Niu Fu's opinion, Yang Feng betrayed Guo Da before, and he and Guo Da had absolutely no possibility of joining forces.

A few days later, Yang Feng really led a rather elite army to reinforce Niu Fu. Yang Feng sent someone to send a message to Niu Fu, and the two families besieged Guo Da near Yanchi, and Niu Fu then exhausted the army from Yucheng and rushed to Yanchi.

In the end, Niu Fu was caught between Guo Da and Yang Fengxi, and suffered the most significant defeat since entering Hedong. Niu Fu fled to Maojin in a hurry with less than 3,000 soldiers, and then crossed the river from Maojin and fled into Jiaocheng on the opposite bank.

After Guo Da and Yang Feng got Niu Fu, Guo Da broke the agreement and suddenly attacked Yang Feng. This time, it was still Yu Fuluo's Southern Hun cavalry that took the lead, intending to use the high-speed assault of the cavalry to disrupt Yang Feng, who had not gained a firm foothold. However, Yang Feng was always vigilant against Guo Da's sneak attack, and he formed a hedgehog formation of spears and shields from the infantry according to the method taught by Zhang Liao at the beginning, so that Yu Fuluo returned in vain.

When Guo Da was in a dilemma, he suddenly received an urgent report from the rear, it turned out that Yang Feng actually sent a thousand-man cavalry team to take advantage of Guo Da's main force to attack Niu Fu to sneak attack Xie County, and captured Xie County and Flawed City, which were left behind with weak troops.

Guo Da was completely panicked at this time, he wanted to take the main force to Hanoi to meet Zhang Niujiao, the commander of the Montenegrin Army, but was killed by Yu Fuluo who led his troops to rush into the tent that night. Yu Fu Luo wanted to control the Bai Bo army, but was fiercely resisted by Guo Da's military advisor Hu Cai, and the Bai Bo army was finally split into three parts, of which Yu Fu Luo fled to Zuo Feng Yi with one part of his men, Hu Cai fled to Hanoi with the other part, and the largest part of them broke up on the spot, and some of them even went to Yang Feng.

Dong Zhuo felt that Luoyang was already very dangerous, so he dismissed Huang Wan and Situ Yang Biao, who opposed the relocation of the capital to Chang'an.

There was a rumor in Luoyang City, and people were in panic, as if the end of the world was coming.
