Within a month,
Bocai of Yanzhou, Zhang Liang and Zhang Mancheng of Yuzhou, and the Yellow Turban commanders all received Zhang Jiao's letter from Pei Yuanshao.
Their reactions were different.
Like Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao, Bo Cai tore up Zhang Jiao's secret letter and chose to follow his own pace.
On the other hand, Zhang Man City, after some careful consideration, gave up on Nanyang's Wan City and gathered a lot of people and soldiers. They retreated to Gepo and began to develop in the mountains, waiting for the right time.
With Ge Po's advantageous terrain, he was confident that he could defend Ge Po.
,........
A month later.
Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were surrounded by the 400,000 strong army led by Bo Cai.
In the end, Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and Cao Cao used fire to defeat Bo Cai.
Bo Cai was killed by Cao Cao.
For a time, the Yingchuan Yellow Turban army began to collapse, and the situation changed drastically.
At the same time, Cao Cao also began to step onto the stage of history, and his reputation began to rise.
After that, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun split up and marched into Runan and Nanyang…Waiting for a place.
Three months later, he defeated Zhang Liang again, and Zhang Liang was killed by Sima Sun Jian, a subordinate of Zhu Juan.
At this point, the main forces of the Yellow Turban army in Yanzhou and Yuzhou were basically wiped out.
Zhang Man City's troops found Huangfu Song's attack, but relying on the dangerous terrain, Huangfu Song could not do anything to him for a while.
After losing a lot of soldiers, Huangfu Song could only retreat and divide his forces to encircle and suppress the scattered Yellow Turban rebels in Yuzhou and other counties in the northern part of Jingzhou, speeding up the pacification of the area.
On the other hand, on the Qingzhou battlefield.
In the two months that Lu Zhi had entered Qingzhou, he had defeated Zhang Bao's Yellow Turban main force several times, causing him to suffer heavy casualties.
In the end, Zhang Bao was defeated in Linzi and killed in the rebel army.
Sun Guan and the others led the remaining soldiers into the surrounding mountains of Mount Tai, relying on the terrain to deal with the government troops.
Unable to take it down in a short time, Lu Zhi could only give up and divide his forces to pacify the remaining Yellow Turban troops in other parts of Qingzhou.
However, he soon realized that Qingzhou was completely different from Jizhou.
This was a mountainous and hilly area with many dangerous mountains and rivers. It was impossible to quickly wipe out the small group of Yellow Turban rebels and bandits.
These rebels became more and more cunning, and they began to rely on the terrain to attack frequently. They even caused a lot of casualties to the government troops.
Half a month after Luo Xuan and the others left the Jizhou battlefield,
On the battlefield of Jizhou, Dong Zhuo was indeed unwilling to eat the leftovers and set his sights on the Yellow Turban troops of Black Mountain's Zhang Yan.
He led the army to attack Black Mountain Tribe, intending to destroy the Black Mountain Army in one fell swoop.
In the end, they were defeated and defeated by the Black Mountain Army.
If it wasn't for Liu, Guan, and Zhang's powerful individual strength, Dong Zhuo might have been left behind in the black mountain.
After the defeat, Dong Zhuo was worried that he would be punished. He immediately sent people to bribe the eunuchs and wrote letters to He Jin and the Yuan family for help, asking for a transfer.
After spending almost all of his assets, with the efforts of He Jin, the Yuan family, and the eunuchs, Dong Zhuo was transferred to Xiliang to suppress the local Qiang rebellion and atone for his sins.
At this moment, Liu Guan Zhang and the other two were so regretful that their intestines turned green!
They really didn't expect Dong Zhuo to be so useless.
In October, along with Zhang Bao, Zhang Liang, and Bo Cai…The imperial court had expended a great deal of resources and could no longer support the army to continue the conquest.
As the aristocrats fled, the Emperor Liu Hong ordered the armies to return to court and prepare to receive their rewards.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion had basically come to an end, and the Great Han Dynasty had entered a new chapter.
At the same time, in these few months, the northern part of Bing Province had also undergone earth-shattering changes.
After Luo Xuan took over Shuofang, Wuyuan, Xihe, Yanmen, and Dingxiang, he began to reorganize the border fortresses and armies of the five counties.
With the Yinshan Mountain Range and a portion of the Great Wall as a barrier, they constructed a military defense line from the west to the east.
To be able to organize, integrate, and train 105,000 troops in just five months;
One was stationed at the three passes of Helan Mountain, Helankou, and Suyukou;
With Gao Shun as the main general and Luo Yong as the deputy general, the army was 20,000.
Defend against the North Xiongnu and some of the South Xiongnu rebels as well as the Xianbei;
One was stationed in Wuyuan, guarding Wuyuan County.
With Lu Bu as the main general, Zhao Yun as the deputy general, with 20,000 troops to guard against Xianbei;
One was stationed in Beiyu, with Zhang He as the general and Zhou Cang as the deputy general, with 20,000 troops to guard against Xianbei.
One was stationed in Qiangyin and Peace City;
Zhang Liao was the main general and Gu Xiang was the deputy general. They had 40,000 soldiers and were also guarding against the Xianbei.
One was stationed at the side pass, with Gu Yu as the main general and 5000 troops to guard against the Southern Xiongnu's Xiutu tribes.
Luo Xuan led 15,000 troops and guarded the Yin Mansion in the rear, keeping an eye on the situation of the various troops.
At the same time, he ordered the commanders to attack the Hu cavalry within their defensive range according to their own situation.
At the same time, it also sped up the training and improvement of the recruits.
After three months of training, these troops were assigned to various passes. Just the basic training was not enough.
Faced with Luo Xuan's all-round defensive strategy, the various Hu tribes had different reactions.
Most of them had calmed down because of the Great Han rebellion.
They would only send out small groups of roaming cavalry to frequently harass the various passes, or simply bypass the passes and take small paths into the five northern counties to plunder.
On the Xianbei side, Bu Dugen led 300,000 troops to attack Qiangyin and Pingcheng in 184 AD after several months of probing attacks and intelligence gathering.
The situation was not good for Luo Xuan.
As soon as he received the messenger pigeon from the secret guard, Luo Xuan led 15,000 soldiers from the Yin Mansion and set off for Ping City.
At the same time, he ordered the Battle Pigeon Battalion to send a message to Zhang He, Lu Bu, and Gao Shun to attack the Xianbei army from the rear.
Disperse and slow down the main forces of Budugen to buy time and opportunities for Zhang Liao and Gu Xiang who were stationed at Qiangyin and Pingcheng.
With the speed of the messenger birds, it took at most a day for Gao Shun and the others to receive the message. They immediately led most of the troops in the pass to attack. They split into three groups and charged straight into the Xianbei's rear and flanks.
Luo Xuan also forced his way through at the fastest speed possible. On the evening of the second day, he rushed to Ping City and met up with Zhang Liao's army, which had already abandoned Qiang Yin and retreated to Ping City. They faced Bu Dugen's 300,000 iron cavalry outside the pass.
