Years: 185 - 185

Dong Zhuo's position becomes surrounded by the Qiang in Wangyuan (northwest of present-day Tianshui).

With his supplies depleted, he effects an escape by damming the river as if to catch fish and secretly transports his men across to the opposite shore.

By the time the Qiang follow in pursuit, the dammed river is too deep for them to cross.

Dong Zhuo is the only commander to keep his forces intact after this offensive Although the Battle of Meiyang has halted the rebels' advance into the Han Dynasty heartlands, the rebels are able to retain their power by the upper Yellow River due to the failure of the Han follow-up offensive.

The upper Wei River valley becomes contested ground.
