"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The sound of arrows coming was endless.

Many people appeared on the roofs and walls on both sides of the road, firing crossbow arrows crazily toward this side!

Arrows were coming from all directions!

"Not good, it's an ambush!"

"Ah!"

Many Xiliang soldiers fell from their horses screaming!

The arrows didn't stop, but instead became more numerous.

The soldiers on the roof were Liu Bei's personal guards, equipped with a thousand heavy crossbows captured from Ding Yuan Shao. Today, they were all arranged for these rebels!

Not long after,

over 2, 00 corpses lay on the street, and many of the remaining Xiliang soldiers were hit by arrows, bleeding while crazily whipping their horses!

At this time, their only thought was to escape!

"Rebels, don't run!"

"Clatter! Clatter! Clatter!"

A team of elite cavalry rushed out from the corner of the street, led by Guan Yu holding the Green Dragon Crescent Blade!

"Kill!"

"Duan Wei, die!"

The Red Hare horse neighed softly, fast as lightning, carrying Guan Yu into the enemy formation.

Under a flash of the blade,

Duan Wei only felt a flash before his eyes, and then it went black!

His head leaped high!

Guan Yu didn't stop, and slashed two more captains to death, like a god of slaughter in the dark!

The Xiliang rebels were terrified and didn't dare to resist, turning their horses around to flee.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Another round of arrow rain, and only a few hundred remnants remained of the 5, 00 cavalry that came with Duan Wei.

Soon,

these remnants were all killed!

At the same time, in the military camp in the city, Ju Yi's Vanguard Camp made the Xiliang cavalry suffer!

Zhang Zhang Liao also defeated the Xiliang rebels who came to sneak-attack!

At this time, the city gates were also wide open.

Zhang Fei, Xu Sheng, and Taishi Ci each led a cavalry team to kill the rebellious Xiliang army!

The entire Chang'an City was filled with shouts of killing and screams!

Many people in Chang'an hid under their beds, trembling.

Former Prime Minister's mansion,

Jia Xu was earnestly practicing breathing and meditation techniques,

"My Lord, this breathing technique is truly magical, my body is getting better and better."

Guo Jia, who was slacking off, curled his lips,

"I say Jia Wenhe, you don't take concubines, why do you train your body so well!"

Jia Xu didn't care,

"Guo Fengxiao, life has many pursuits, living long is also a pursuit."

Liu Bei laughed, "Two different attitudes toward life, both are understandable."

Jia Xu cupped his hands,

"My Lord, after this battle, the hidden danger of the Xiliang soldiers has been completely eliminated."

Liu Bei nodded,

"50, 00 Xiliang soldiers, this time at least 20, 00 were lost, but it was worth it. It's better than guarding against them every day. The others will be distributed to other troops."

"Chen Dao!"

"Subordinate is here!"

"You take people to maintain the order of Chang'an City, kill anyone who takes advantage of the chaos to plunder!"

"Yes!"

That night, although the shouts of killing decreased a lot in the second half of the night, no one dared to sleep.

Early the next morning, the sky cleared up,

the people of Chang'an carefully poked their heads out from their doors.

They didn't find the arrogant Xiliang soldiers galloping on horses,

but instead saw teams maintaining order.

"Lord Liu Xuande has won a great victory!"

"What's the situation?"

"Duan Wei led 18, 00 Xiliang soldiers to rebel, but Lord Liu Xuande had long since set an ambush and defeated the rebels."

"Duan Wei was killed by Guan Yu with one blade, his head flew over ten meters away!"

"All the Xiliang soldiers who participated in the rebellion were killed!"

"They are still burning corpses outside the city now!"

"Miss Fu Shou was willing to be the bait, clearly she is infatuated with Lord Liu Xuande."

Soon, everyone saw the notice, the general idea was that the rebels had been wiped out, and everyone could live with peace of mind!

The order of Chang'an City instantly improved a lot.

As Liu Bei's troops arrived in Chang'an City,

the remaining 30, 00 Xiliang soldiers who did not participate in the rebellion were dispersed and integrated into various teams.

Next was the big move.

Liu Bei's General of the Household Cavalry's mansion and his family,

and the families of his subordinates, all moved to Chang'an City.

Over 1. million people moved from the previously crowded Bing Province to live in Jingzhao, and another batch of people would migrate over later.

Fengyi Commandery, Fufeng Commandery, and Chang'an instantly became lively.

Liu Bei sent Guan Yu to guard Taiyuan Commandery and Shangdang Commandery to guard against Ding Yuan Shao of Ji Province, with Xu Shu, Wang Ling, Guanqiu Sun Jian, Hao Zhao, and others assisting.

Xu Rong and Yu Du continued to be responsible for the defense of the border between Hedong and Henei.

Zhao Yun expanded his army by 5, 00 and led 25, 00 troops to continue guarding Yanmen Commandery, responsible for protecting the stability of northern Bing Province, with Guo Huai, Liu Pi, and others assisting.

The remaining generals and troops went to Jingzhao, distributed in Chang'an, Fufeng, and Fengyi.

Thus, Liu Bei controlled most of Bing Province and Jingzhao, with a population of over 7 million and 160, 00 troops; his army was strong and his horses were sturdy!

Most of the Taiyuan Academy also moved to Chang'an, leaving a branch to continue cultivating talent.

Luoyang City,

everyone was still arguing endlessly about who should be Emperor,

and after arguing, they continued to drink.

Cao Cao was already tired of it and planned to return to Yan Province to do business.

Ding Yuan Shu was in a hurry to go back and support the Prince of Jiujiang as Emperor, taking an important step toward declaring himself Emperor.

Ding Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were both waiting for news from Chang'an.

Previously, Liu Bei took Chang'an without bloodshed, which made them sour for several days.

Ding Yuan Shu also got the news,

"I heard that Liu Bei is implementing benevolent governance in Chang'an, and the Xiliang soldiers are very dissatisfied."

Lu Bu took over the conversation,

"The Xiliang soldiers are not weak. I fought hard to escape Chang'an."

"Liu Bei doesn't understand the habits of the Xiliang soldiers at all. It's impossible for them to listen to him obediently."

Ding Yuan Shao and Cao Cao looked at each other,
