Chapter 1072

"Since the Marquis of Ji..."

"Wait a minute." Duan Yu suddenly interrupted Ding Yuan.

A pair of cold eyes swept toward Ding Yuan on the pass and said: "I haven't finished my words yet."

"Ding Yuan, since you have already chosen."

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance."

Duan Yu slowly stretched out two fingers and said: "I will give you one last chance."

"Before sunset, open the gate of Hangu Pass and let me pass. Just like what you just said, I will pretend that what happened before never happened."

"I will pretend I never heard what you said, and I still owe you a favor."

"But if the gate of the pass is not opened before dark."

"Then before dawn tomorrow, your head will definitely be hung on the city pass. Don't say I didn't give you a chance."

"Two choices..."

"Either open the door!"

"Or... die!"

After speaking, Duan Yu did not look back.

The black tiger turned and walked toward the distance.

On Hangu Pass, Ding Yuan's face was iron-blue.

"Lord, you have seen it." Song Xian stood out at the right time and pointed at Duan Yu's back outside the city pass and said: "The Lord shouldn't have talked so much nonsense with him just now."

"This person is extremely arrogant. The Lord should have ordered to shoot him to death just now."

"The Lord talked peace with him, but it made him even more arrogant."

"Enough!"

Ding Yuan shouted angrily, interrupting Song Xian's words.

Duan Yu's words were like a curse, lingering in Ding Yuan's heart.

Even standing on this city pass several feet high, Ding Yuan felt a palpitation.

"Order, strengthen the defense of the city pass, and double the patrols at night." Ding Yuan said with a dark face: "Duan Yu's subordinates are famous for their cavalry, and siege is not their specialty."

"I don't believe he can break the city by relying on cavalry."

"Hou Cheng, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Zhang Yang, you patrol the city twelve hours a day without stopping."

"Report any wind or grass movement to this official immediately, and absolutely do not let anyone into the city."

The four people standing behind Ding Yuan bowed and answered.

On the other side, after Duan Yu returned to his army formation, he ordered the whole army to rest.

Ding Yuan in Hangu Pass definitely did not dare to bring troops out.

It makes no sense for them to rely on each other here.

Now is just waiting.

Waiting for it to get dark.

See how Ding Yuan chooses.

Time passed minute by minute.

Not long after Duan Yu and Ding Yuan's negotiations failed, Hua Xiong also brought 800 Flying Bear Cavalry to Hangu Pass.

With the arrival of the 800 Flying Bear Cavalry, Ding Yuan, who saw that Duan Yu's troops had increased again, felt even more uneasy.

And as the sun began to set, Ding Yuan did not open the city gate in the end.

The last rays of the setting sun fell on the city pass, covering the distant Hangu Pass with a layer of golden light.

"Lord, the gate is still not open in the pass."

Tie Shitou came to Duan Yu, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.

Hearing Tie Shitou's voice, Duan Yu slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were full of coldness.

"I know."
