"These people were not Xiliang soldiers. I'm afraid they were sent by Cao Cao to tell their brothers that all bows and arrows were drawn on the strings and were ready to shoot these thieves at any time."

Guan Ping said almost confidently.

"Isn't it the Xiliang army?" The guard general was stunned for a moment, then swallowed hard.

Guan Ping ignored the man and immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "Everyone, join the army tonight and no one is allowed to open the city gate."

"Or why don't you avoid the city wall first, and I will send someone to inform you to join the army. In addition, I will ask the archers on the top of the city to prepare and wait for the iron cavalry of Cao's army to leave, and then welcome you into the city, okay?"

The air sets instantly.

People on both sides can feel the solidification of the air.

In the military formation, Xiahou Dun hesitated. Guan Ping was really disgusting, but they could not get close to the city, just as he was about to send a command to attack.

Guan Ping shouted loudly: "Shoot the arrow!"

Whoosh, whoosh!

For a moment, countless archers stood up from behind the city wall, and their fingers that had already been thrusting their strings were released one after another, and arrows shot out.

"Retreat," Xiahou Dun shouted immediately.

At this time, a strong attack is almost impossible, so he can only retreat.

After leaving more than ten corpses, he fled in a panic and mingled with the more than two thousand iron cavalry who had come.

Looking at the towering Tongguan in the distance, Xiahou Dun looked gloomy and was just one step away. As long as the man opened the city gate just now, Guanzhong would be his.

"Damn it!" Xiahou Dun cursed inwardly.

Now that he has lost the initiative, he and his cavalry have no use at all. At present, they can only retreat one after another and then find a way.

Thinking of this, he looked at Tongguan with some reluctance, and then the leader disappeared into the darkness.

On the top of the city, Guan Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I was careful, otherwise Tongguan would not be guaranteed, and I was worried that Xiahou Dun would return, so Guan Ping kept keeping a vigil.

......

At dawn, the morning light shines.

Guan Ping was a little tired, but when he was about to go down the city wall, Liu Bei led more than a hundred cavalry not far away and did return, but he looked a little embarrassed.

"Master, this is..."

Liu Bei ignored Guan Ping, but glanced left and right, and said anxiously: "Nephew, is there anyone else except me?"

Guan Ping shook his head in confusion and said, "But last night, Cao's army sent someone to come. It seemed to be trying to earn money to the city gate, but I saw it through it."

Liu Bei felt panic again, fortunately.

"My nephew, please stay here. As long as you meet all the princes in the pass, you will directly bring people to kill me by killing me, and say that these people collude with Cao Cao."

Liu Bei said with a sinister expression.

"Collecting Cao Cao?" Guan Ping was a little suspicious.

"Okay, just do it, especially Han Sui. If he returns, he must kill him." Liu Bei's voice was louder, "As for Ma Teng, he can save his life."

Ma Teng has relatively less ambitions. If he stays, he can better control Guanzhong. But I don’t know if these people have escaped.

"Yes," Guan Pingzheng pointed.

Although he didn't know what was going on, his father said that he must obey Liu Bei's orders.

When he entered the pass, Liu Bei immediately summoned the remaining powerful troops to discuss matters. At the same time, Liu Bei clearly stated that Han Sui and others sold their owners for honor, intending to annex these troops.

......

It was almost noon, and Jingzhou Xiangyang City.

And on this day, outside Xiangyang City was extremely lively.

Zhang Xiu and his civil and military officials all went out of the city to welcome him. The scene was extremely grand, and the person welcoming was the son of the day.

Before this, when Zhang Xiu knew that Yi Ji persuaded Dong Cheng to bring the emperor to Jingzhou, he really never thought about it. He just wanted to punish Cao Cao before, just for a moment.

Now, a real thing comes directly.

From now on, Zhang Xiu is the one who obeys the emperor and orders the emperor to be disobedient. However, Zhang Xiu is a good person, so he will not do such a thing as imprisoning the emperor and killing the concubine.

Ahem, he's a good person.
