Upon hearing this, numerous city gate guards surged forward.

Even the nearby sergeant's barracks attracted a large number of people.

"dismount!"

Seeing that many subordinates had gathered around, Xu Jiang felt emboldened and angrily rebuked Sun Jian and Gu Hu.

He still thought Sun Jian was just an unknown nobody and not worth worrying about.

On the contrary, Gu Hu is highly skilled in martial arts and has excellent skills. If the provocation is used properly, he can avenge both the old and new grudges today.

Sun Jian found this situation amusing.

He first patted Gu Hu on the shoulder, signaling Gu Hu to calm down, and then dismounted.

"They dismounted, and then what?"

Sun Jian, with a cold face, glanced at the officers and soldiers, then turned to Xu Jiang and said.

"To draw one's sword and attempt to assassinate the garrison commander of the capital is a serious crime. According to the Great Law, one should be apprehended on the spot!"

Xu Jiang had never taken Sun Jian seriously from the beginning, considering him merely Gu Hu's subordinate, and was even less concerned about him now.

He had guarded the gates of Kyoto for many years. He knew all the sons of high-ranking officials and nobles.

"Oh, then try to capture me."

Sun Jian naturally didn't give Xu Jiang a friendly look, but simply indicated that Xu Jiang could make his move now.

After saying this, Sun Jian turned to look at the group of soldiers who had surrounded them.

"And you guys, why don't you try it yourself?"

Upon hearing this, the gatekeepers looked at each other, hesitant to step forward, waiting for their superior, Xu Jiang, to make a decision.

Xu Jiang, his face cold, rebuked, "You, a mere centurion, dare to speak so arrogantly in front of me! You're courting death!"

"hehe."

Sun Jian smiled and said, "The last person who talked to me like that is probably already buried with tall grass on their grave."

"I'd like to see how I die today."

Gu Hu stood guard, his face full of vigilance. He made a decision in his heart: even if he died today, he would not let Sun Jian suffer even the slightest harm.

However, Sun Jian was currently dealing with this matter, and as Sun Jian's subordinate, he could only watch how things would develop...

"Hey kid, you've got some nerve. Daring to talk to me like that?"

Xu Jiang was amused by Sun Jian's words.

He first waved his hand to signal the soldiers to calm down, then circled around Sun Jian, looking him up and down.

"Young man, you have some guts. You dare to speak your mind to me. Your courage is commendable, but you don't know your own limitations!"

"You little brat, do you know who I am?"

Sun Jian rolled his eyes at Xu Jiang, "Who are you?"

"Heh, I am Xu Jiang, the Right Guard Commandant of the Capital Garrison and Cavalry."

Xu Jiang looked arrogant.

He originally thought that after he revealed his identity, the audacious guy in front of him would be startled and would immediately change sides or run away. Unexpectedly, Sun Jian just said "oh" and then didn't say anything more.

"Then what?"

Sun Jian shrugged, his face full of disdain.

At that moment, Xu Jiang was furious, his face slapping loudly.

The Commandant of Chariots and Cavalry was ordered to guard the East Gate of Chang'an, the capital. Even high-ranking officials and nobles would give him some respect. Unexpectedly, this kid in front of him dared to look at him with disdain!

"You ignorant brat, arrogant and foolish, you don't know your own limitations!"

Xu Jiang glared fiercely at Sun Jian, then said, "I'm letting this go today because of your loyalty to Gu Hu. We'll only hold Gu Hu accountable. Get the hell out of here."

"Heh, what can you do if I don't leave?"

Sun Jian wanted to see just how capable Xu Jiang was.

"Are you being unreasonable?"

Xu Jiang was somewhat angry.

"You little brat, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? You're really asking for trouble!"

"Since you're courting death, don't blame me!"

After saying this, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes, and he turned to his soldiers and said, "Brothers, these two men have forced their way through the east gate and even tried to draw their swords to assassinate the gatekeeper. Seize them!"

"yes!"

The officers and soldiers responded in unison and were about to step forward to capture Gu Hu and Sun Jian.

At that moment, Gu Hu panicked and immediately drew his sword, wanting to fight these scoundrels to the death. But to his surprise, Sun Jian reached out his hand.

"slow!"

"What? Scared now? Hahahaha!"

When Xu Jiang saw Sun Jian speak up to stop him, he was overjoyed, thinking that his intimidation and force had worked.

If we could humiliate Gu Hu in front of him, we would finally be able to vent our anger.

Wouldn't it be more effective to send troops to capture them at the last minute?

"Kid, let me tell you, it's too late for you to be afraid now!"

After saying that, Xu Jiang spread his legs apart and pointed to his crotch.

"I just gave you a chance, but you didn't appreciate it."

"If you want to leave now, you'll have to crawl between my legs!"

"There's another requirement when you're crawling through: you have to bark like a dog while you're crawling!"

Upon hearing this, the officers and soldiers burst into laughter, all eager to see Sun Jian bark like a dog and crawl between their legs.

Gu Hu was so angry his face turned green. "You! You've gone too far!"

At that moment, Gu Hu really wanted to rush forward and fight Xu Jiang and the soldiers to the death. He was willing to die himself, but how could he let his benefactor suffer the humiliation of crawling between someone's legs?

"I'm bullying you, so what?"

Xu Jiang glared at Gu Hu, deliberately provoking him, "If you've got the guts, then do it! Let's see who dies first!"

Sun Jian shook his head with a wry smile and patted Gu Hu on the shoulder again, "Brother, don't worry, didn't I tell you, leave this to me."

After speaking, Sun Jian took a step forward and looked at Xu Jiang.

Seeing Sun Jian's reaction, Xu Jiang thought Sun Jian was going to kneel down and crawl between his legs, so he laughed loudly: "Hahaha, good lad, come on, crawl through my crotch and I'll let you go."

"Remember to bark like a dog, otherwise it won't count."

As Xu Jiang spoke, he spread his legs even wider.

Faced with the mockery and jeers of those around him, Sun Jian remained silent. Instead, he took a few more steps forward and stood two meters away from Xu Jiang.

Seeing that Sun Jian remained motionless for a long time, Xu Jiang continued to mock him: "Kid, arrogance always comes at a price. As I just said, I gave you a chance by letting you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror."

"But if you don't cherish it, who can you blame?"

"Grandpa, my patience is limited. If you're going to crawl in, hurry up and do it. If you keep dawdling and I change my mind, you won't even be allowed to crawl between my legs... Hahahaha!"

As soon as Xu Jiang said this, the surrounding soldiers guarding the city burst into laughter again.

"Yeah, yeah, look at him, all that respectable airs, I never imagined his tough attitude was all an act!"

"He's probably already scared to death and can't wait to crawl in!"

"Kid, are you scared now? Remember this! We, the Right Guard Army, are not to be trifled with!"
