Yanzhou and Qingzhou are like a sharp sword that cut Jizhou and Yuzhou into two sections, which can prevent the formation of a powerful force between the princes of Hebei and Henan, but at the same time, they will also face the danger of the joining forces of Yuan Shao, Xuzhou Tao Qian, and Yuzhou Yuan Shu join forces to attack Qingyan. If Qingyan and Yanzhou are to withstand the pressure, just force is not enough. It also requires the full support of the people of Qingzhou and Yanzhou. When Cao Cao allows the Qingzhou army to plunder the wealthy families in Yanzhou, many families will definitely cause casualties and losses during this period. At this time, whoever can provide protection for the remaining families will gain the support of each family.

And Dong Hu is also waiting for this opportunity!

On the one hand, it gained support for protecting the remaining families, and on the other hand, it gained support from the lower-class people. As long as there is corresponding force shock, Qingzhou and Yanzhou will completely cut off the princes of Hebei and Henan with one sword, so as not to form a joint force between the princes of Henan and Hebei.

Once Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Jizhou, Yuan Shao, the governor of Jizhou, will fall into the siege of Gongsun Zan in the north, Qingzhou in the east, Yanzhou in the south, Luoyang, Henei County in the west, and Bingzhou in the west. Although it is impossible to judge whether Yuan Shao can convince Gongsun Zan in the north to join forces, Jizhou faces Dong Hu's siege of Dong Hu's east, south and west, within a few years, even if Dong Hu does not attack Yuan Shao, he only needs to maintain strong pressure, keep Yuan Shao in danger, and keep him in 20 or 300,000 troops. In a few years, the entire Jizhou will be starved everywhere. If there is no need to attack, Yuan Shao will die!

Maintaining 100,000 or 200,000 troops will be maintained. If a considerable number of wealthy families are not killed, and if a considerable number of land is not obtained, no one can maintain such a large army all year round. Perhaps Yuan Shao can briefly recruit hundreds of thousands of people to fight a battle with the support of various major families, but it is absolutely impossible to maintain it all year round... it is absolutely impossible!

Without anyone intervening, as long as the direct troops in their hands have an absolute advantage, any prince can attack the large clans in their territory. However, if external forces interfere in this process, all princes will face the situation of Dong Zhuo. There are powerful enemies outside and they will face the fatal blows inside.

But no matter what, as long as Dong Hu successfully takes Qingzhou, Yanzhou, cut Hebei and Henan from east to west, Jizhou is his belongings. Gongsun Zan of Youzhou himself has the threat of Liu Yu behind him. Even if Liu Yu was killed, the Wuwan people in the north were still dissatisfied. Gongsun Zan himself was still full of ass. If Dong Hu wanted to kill him, he only needed to increase his support for the Wuwan people, and only needed to let Hua Xiong break into Youzhou from Pingcheng. He Gongsun Zan even had to give up the old nest of Youzhou to Dong Hu, but Dong Hu was not willing to do this. No matter how Gongsun Zan was a prince, he would block the barrier of the Wuwan people, unless he rushed to die.

As long as you get Qingzhou and Yanzhou, it is only a matter of time to seize Jizhou. Tao Qian of Xuzhou is a short-lived ghost, Chenliu County, Yingchuan County, and Liang State is already Dong Hu's territory. After Dong Zhuo's death, when Li Jue and Guo Si bowed their heads and surrendered, Dong Hu was already the supreme commander of the Liangzhou army. If Xu Rong, Hu Zhen, Fan Chou, Dong Yue, Zhang Xiu and others did not bow their heads and Dong Hu wanted to kill them, it would be a matter of only one sentence. The Liangzhou generals below could kill them immediately and replace them.

Liangzhou people are real, border people are real. As long as you have strong strength, they will bow their heads, but if they don’t have the strength, they will not be honest and obedient.

Dong Hu was very sure that Xu Rong, Hu Zhen, Fan Chou, Dong Yue, and Zhang Xiu were obedient. Even if most of Yuzhou fell into his pocket, as long as he got Xuzhou, Runan County, and Jiangbei, even if Dong Hu was unified, this process could not be confirmed, but he was extremely confident and confident that he could form a situation of opposition between the north and the south within ten years, and then he would become emperor and unite people's hearts... At this time, Liu Bian seemed extremely important. Although Liu Bian was an abolished emperor, he could be considered an emperor for a few days, right? Although he was not as legitimate as Liu Xie, "abdication" seemed a bit reluctant, but when he took over the entire Jiangbei, even if some people were still dissatisfied with opposition, more people would definitely recognize this matter in the face of reality.

Liu Bian is a tool man who has great interests in Dong Hu. Dong Hu has sympathy for his other life and has always regarded him as his younger brother.

Although it has the meaning of exploitation, it also has real emotions.

Some words cannot be spoken to others. Dong Hu believes that, including his wives and concubines, he will definitely be dissatisfied with his attitude towards Liu Bian, and may think that he is a little weak. Since he has decided to rebel and fight for the world, wouldn’t it be nice to just hold Nanyang County in his hand?

But he is the leader. Since recruiting two thousand mercenaries, he has not made any major mistakes. Dong Buyi has been expanding from the territory he occupied, and no one dares to easily question his decision.

No one knows what he is thinking, some things are too early, and they are unwilling to expose the darkness in their hearts to the world.

Dong Hu and Liu Bian talked for an hour in the wind and snow, and no one knew what the two were talking about. But on the second day, Dong Hu, who was "furious", directly tied up Liu Bian and was taken back to Wancheng by eunuch Guo Sheng himself.

There was heavy snow falling from the sky. No one cared about the inconspicuous farmyard. No one cared about the missing person, and no one cared about the departure of three soldiers. They headed north to Taiyuan County, crossed the river west to enter the Sanfu Guanzhong, and crossed the river south to enter the Hongnong County...

Liu Bian and the messenger left first, and Dong Hu only brought hundreds of relatives to Shan County. Before he could arrive in Shan County, Dong Sizhong, who was the first to receive the military order, immediately led 20,000 Hedong troops to fight towards Huayin County. The second person who received the news was that Hu San and Sun Niu, who were stationed in the Tuba Plateau of Tongguan, had no hesitation at all, and launched a "strong attack" on Tongguan. In just one day, Tongguan fell...

"Open the city gate quickly...Open the city gate quickly...The city gate is broken...Open the door...Countless thieves are coming..."

"Open the door quickly..."

...

Guo Si rushed to the city with a group of ragged soldiers, causing chaos on the entire city.

"It's over...it's over...Your Majesty--"

Cui Lie knelt down on the ground, crying bitterly. There were many ragged ministers like him. Perhaps because of the cold, many ministers had frostbite on their faces, and even Liu Xie's hands were frozen into angrily toads.

A group of ministers cried because a few months ago, there was a rumor in the entire Huayin County that "Dong Hu wanted to kill the emperor and all the ministers"...

"Your Majesty, what should I do now... now?"

Just when his uncle Dong Cheng was panicked, Guo Si, with his crooked armor and slanted, ran to the top of the city. At this time, he no longer had the fierceness of his past and fell to the ground and cried loudly.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... The thief is coming... Dong Shuai... Dong Shuai is going to kill us all..."

"His Majesty……"

Before Guo Si could cry a few times, Li Jie also rushed over with his crooked armor and his people.

"Why are you crying? We haven't lost yet-"

"Come here! Take the emperor to Wuguan--"

Li Jue was furious, waved his hand, and countless soldiers rushed forward. Dong Cheng and a group of ministers were shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to block Liu Xie, who was disheveled.

"You...what do you want to do..."

"Get out!"

Li Jue kicked Dong Cheng who was blocking him and drew his sword and furious.

"Tong Zhe has killed hundreds of thousands of people, and it only takes half an hour to kill him. If you dare to stop the emperor from going to Jingxiang, I will kill you all now-"

"roll!"

Li Jue kicked a minister again and brought Liu Xie, who was panicked, to the face.

"Come!"

"Enter all the ministers out of the city immediately, for a moment...if you don't leave the city for a quarter of an hour, you will kill them all for us-"

Li Jue roared violently, but the originally panicked ministers were stunned, and then... they became panicked again, but there was a little inexplicable expectation and longing on their faces...

Dong Hu blocked all the roads of Taiyuan County, Shangdang County, Hanoi County, Hongnong County, Henan Yin, Hanzhong County, Li Jue, Guo Si, and Jia Xu blocked Huayin County. No one was allowed to enter and exit. Outsiders did not know what happened in Guanzhong. Minister Liu Xiehe, who was blocked in Huayin County, was not very clear about the specific situation in Guanzhong. They only thought that Tongguan was killed and injured every day, and that Guanzhong was starved...

If Dong Hu is the producer director, Li Jue and Guo Si are the best actors, they performed a disaster drama together. Liu Xie and the ministers only knew that the front-line war was extremely cruel, but how could they know that the counties in Guanzhong have basically returned to normal, and the originally high grain prices have also returned to a low price of 500 yuan.

Guanzhong Food Price has been rising since the first year of Zhongping, and it was not until Dong Zhuo forced to move the capital, and the peak of big money should be reached when it was small.

Logically speaking, as long as Dong Zhuo follows Dong Hu's words, he will increase the food on the market after cracking down on local landlords in Guanzhong who are reluctant to sell food. On the other hand, he will reduce the salary of court officials and reduce expenditures. Guanzhong's grain prices should be able to control it.

Using copper coins to buy grain, whether it is five hundred coins per stone, five thousand coins per stone, five thousand coins per stone, it has no meaning to the lower-level people. One is that the lower-level people do not sell excess grain. Even if Dong Zhuo and his generals no longer rob, the wealthy families who have suffered countless losses will increase their rent and plunder them all; the other is that the lower-level people do not have copper coins, and they can do nothing to buy grain.

The price of grain has nothing to do with the people at the bottom, but the average price of grain is so crazy that it also proves the extreme shortage of grain on the market.

Is Dong Zhuo capable of suppressing grain prices? In fact, there is one, just because he plundered all the grain and did not invest in the market, which caused grain prices to remain high.
