Biography
Guan Tong was son of Guan Xing, who died at a young age, and grandson of Guan Yu. He attained the rank of 虎賁中郎將 (Hu Ben/Bi Zhong Lang Jiang) before he passed away. His son (with a concubine), Guan Yi, inherited his rank, but also died before his time when Pang Hui executed the Guan household in revenge for Pang De’s death at Guan Yu’s hands.
