Horseshoe urgent In Xiangyang City, the soldiers of Xiangyang Guards have already set up a long blockade.
And just outside the blockade, the rapid sound of horse hooves came from far outside the city, and then groups of brightly armored cavalry were seen driving straight in, galloping past in front of the crowded Xiangyang people behind the blockade.
Because Liu Bei's cavalry armor was purchased from the Ma family, its close-fitting shape and good defensive function made the knights on horseback particularly eye-catching at night.
In particular, there are two cold spear heads hanging on the hooks on the lower abdomen of each soldier's war horse, and the shining sabers in their hands that can almost clearly illuminate a person's face.
Under the rapid running, they almost shook along the way.
The people who admired the moon could not open their eyes.
Originally, people in the city were not allowed to go out after the curfew.
But there are exceptions to everything.
On major traditional festivals such as the Mid-Autumn Festival or the Spring Festival, Liu Biao's Jingzhou Shepherd, who has always been very knowledgeable, will delay the curfew for a long time.
After all, Xiangyang has been at peace for a long time, and the people living here have long developed the same temperament as Liu Biao to watch the storm.
Therefore, facing this sudden cavalry, they behaved in a panic.
But then after seeing the armor and banners of the galloping knights, as well as the general at the forefront of the team, they immediately burst into cheers.
If Huo Jun is a rising star in Xiangyang, then Chen Dao is a rising star among rising stars.
Chen Dao had a stern face and superb martial arts.
Although he had not been in Xiangyang for a long time, during the period when Liu Bei was suppressing the chaos, reports of his military successes often spread on the streets of Xiangyang.
Liu Bei's reputation was also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of Xiangyang.
Therefore, as the masters, these Xiangyang people showed great tolerance and welcome to Liu Bei and his generals.
But no one noticed that Chen Dao's face was solemn at this moment.
As he galloped, the night breeze blew through his hair at extremely fast speeds, and he seemed not to feel even a trace.
The cold light in his eyes was as sharp as a knife, his legs were tightly clamped on the horse's belly, and he struggled to raise the whip He silently told himself in his heart: No matter what happens tonight, there must not be the slightest mistake.
Chen Dao frowned.
When the cavalry team rushed to the gate of Xiangyang City, he ordered the team to stop.
At this moment, the Xiangyang guards had withdrawn, and Chen Dao quickly began to convey the order: "Guan Ping, you lead five hundred people to close the city gate and take over the suspension bridge.
From now on, not a single fly is allowed to enter Xiangyang City again.
If something goes wrong, you Just go to Runan and apologize to the second general."
"Liu Pi, you will lead a thousand men to be responsible for the security inside Xiangyang City tonight.
Liu Jingzhou has given an order to have fun with the people tonight, but I don't want to see any riots anywhere."
"General, I have difficulty obeying my order.
One thousand people are responsible for the security of the entire Xiangyang City.
No matter in terms of manpower or security range, my subordinates are too busy."
"Humph, we were ordered to take over the city defense, and Xiangyang County's security guards are naturally under our control.
You can take over the Xiangyang County soldiers.
I don't care how you obtain military power, but there is only one result: Xiangyang City will be safe and sound before dawn, no matter what happens.
Don’t mess with things.”
Liu Pi's eyes flashed, and after understanding the severity in Chen Dao's tone, he nodded heavily.
"I will also allocate you a thousand people from Gongdu.
You focus on protecting the east city of Xiangyang.
There are big nobles there and the center of power in Xiangyang.
You only need to bring people to patrol there to make sure nothing goes wrong."
If someone dares to break in or try to cause trouble, you just let them go and kill them, do you understand?"
"Okay, everyone else, including the cavalry battalion, please follow me.
We are going to have a big fight tonight."
The Guards Cavalry Battalion is Liu Bei's direct confidant, and they all shouted when they heard this.
Although many people were also vaguely nervous and speculating: foreign troops were transferred into Xiangyang City to take over the city defense.
Such a big change clearly meant that something big was going to happen.

What's more, Chen Dao's order was very firm, and he told them bluntly that if there was trouble and someone tried to cause trouble, they could kill people freely.
This is not outside the city, but the entire Xiangyang City of Jingzhou.
Especially they are not Liu Biao's troops at all, but they have to carry out such subtle orders.
It is really incredible.
However, none of the soldiers who can follow Liu Bei to fight in various places, and become more refined as they are tempered on the battlefield, are not weaklings.
They are all carefully selected elites and have been trained by Chen, the master of military training.
Leading the old soldiers, the general gave the order in such a murderous tone, and everyone suddenly seemed to have forgotten everything The army of tigers and wolves has such a momentum What's more, although tonight's situation seems very evil, my lord and Jingzhou Liu Biao are from the same Han clan, and this time the general Chen Daoguan and Jingzhou Liu Biao's military power tiger talisman and other things, as As a soldier who is loyal to the emperor, he only needs to be a sharp steel knife in the hands of those in power.
As for what is going to happen in Xiangyang tonight, why are they asked to take over the city defense, and even if they have to kill people and fight tonight, as long as it is the order of the lord, everyone can just ride their horses and swing their sabers.
With the remaining 2,500 elites, they continued to rush through Xiangyang City.
The scouts holding the flags rushed quickly, conveying city defense information everywhere: "General, 15,000 infantry troops are stationed outside the city.
If there is civil strife in Xiangyang City, they can enter the city and quell the rebellion in just one stick of incense."
"General, the east gate and south gate city defenses have been taken over, and the city gate has been closed."
"General, the north gate of Xiangyang has been closed, the suspension bridge has been retracted, and Xiangyang City is completely isolated from the north."
"General, the East Gate and South Gate suspension bridges have also fallen, and the entire Xiangyang City is like an iron barrel."
"General, General Liu Pi divided his men into groups and inspected the streets in Xiangyang.
There has been no movement at the moment."
"General," The various messages passed back and forth made Chen Dao's frown slightly relieved: before taking over Xiangyang, Chen Dao had studied the city defense of Xiangyang City.
There are only three gates in the east, south and north.
Now that all the cables are closed, the entire Xiangyang City will no longer be invulnerable.
As long as there is no chaos in the inner city, the probability of protecting Xiangyang tonight is at least half.
From this, Chen Dao, who reined in his horse, smiled slightly when he looked at the crowded city filled with festive atmosphere.
Then he thought about it, turned around and shouted to the knights behind him: "The most important thing tonight is the Sheriff's Mansion.
You are willing to come with me."
"I am willing to follow the general until death."
A deafening reply suddenly burst out from behind, and 2,500 cavalrymen tightened the reins in their hands at the same time.
"So, just follow me.
Hey, what's going on ahead, why is it there?"
Before Chen Dao's impassioned words could be fully blurted out, he was immediately attracted by the strange thing in the east.
Even though the moon was bright like a wheel, the fire suddenly rose in the east.
There is a faint potential to reach the sky Many people in Xiangyang have also noticed the abnormality, and some people stopped to look at the fire in the distance.
For a while, the road was a little crowded.
Chen Dao and his men were blocked on the street leading to the Sheriff's Mansion.
Looking at the fire in the distance, Chen Dao's face became ugly.
"General, that direction seems to be Dongcheng."
The cavalryman responsible for clearing the road in front turned back and reported.
After hearing this, Chen Dao's face suddenly became extremely sad.
It seemed that even though it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, the festivals in the Han Dynasty were really boring.
Since pine poles are often used for lighting at this time, fires are very easy to occur, so fires are not allowed to be lit at night and no work is allowed at night.
This fire is soaring into the sky, there must be civil strife.
"Quickly send an order to all the city towers, sound the curfew siren in advance to clear the way for the cavalry to come forward, and order all the people to go home and not go out."
Chen Dao issued this order decisively at the first time, because he knew that in the city with thirty-nine thousand eight thousand In the city of Xiangyang with 198 households, once the streets are full of people, any disturbance will lead to a chaos that will never end.
Chen Dao was praying silently in his heart, hoping that some powerful mansion accidentally caught fire.
But at the same time, his reason also told him that on such an important day tonight, there was absolutely no way that such an accident would really be just an accident.
Sure enough, just after the cavalry moved into action, groups of Xiangyang Security County soldiers wearing infantry light leather armor, holding shields and swords, quickly rushed out of the crowd.
There were about a hundred or so county soldiers in this group.

When they came to Chen Dao and others, the two groups almost collided with each other.
"General Chen, are there people in Dongcheng who are plotting rebellion?"
a leading captain shouted loudly after seeing the battle flag beside Chen clearly.
Chen Dao's eyes immediately became cold and stern: Sure enough, something big is going to happen tonight:
