Chapter 458: The Mi family was attacked

What's even more difficult is that the Mi family has a connection with the Xiliang Army in Chang'an, Liu Bei doesn't want to provoke the behemoth of the Xiliang Army for the time being, judging from the weapons that Jia Rong gave to the three of them, the military strength of the Xiliang Army has reached its peak, and it is necessary to be careful to deal with an enemy like Mi Zhu.

When Liu Bei went to Mi Mansion before, he was shocked to see Mi Zhu's sister, and wanted to marry, on the one hand, for Mi Huan's appearance, and on the other hand, for Mi Zhu's support, but he didn't expect Liu Bei to refuse on the grounds that he had been married to Cao Bao's son Cao Yan, Liu Bei didn't care about a woman, thinking that Mi Zhu's sister would marry Cao Yan, and the Cao family and himself were already on the same road, and their hearts were also settled, but what happened in the city recently made him feel a sense of crisis, especially when Tao Qian gave way, Mi Zhu's performance.

After Liu Bei left, Cao Bao's hazy eyes instantly became sober, and he commanded in a low voice: "The Mi family has always prevented Lord Tao from ceding Xuzhou to Liu Bei, after all, it is a disaster, if you get rid of it, you take some people with you, don't leave traces." ”

"No!" A figure flashed out of the darkness, clenching his fists.

"Mi Zhu, Mi Zhu, although you and I have been Xuzhou courtiers for many years, don't blame me for being ruthless, even if you have the Xiliang Army behind you." Cao Bao muttered.

As soon as Jia Rong wanted to fall asleep, he heard the sound of weapons colliding outside, the sound was a little low, obviously a certain distance from Mifu, turned over and sat up, gently picked up the Qingyu sword at the head of the bed, and walked quickly to the outside of Mifu.

I saw that in the dark night, countless people were fighting, and the sparks of the weapons colliding were particularly dazzling in the dark night, and the people on both sides were dressed in black, and there were corpses lying on the ground.

"What's going on?" Jia Rong asked in a low voice.

"Lord, there are about a hundred of these black-clothed people, well-trained and well-armed, and they are obviously coming for the Mi family." Zhang Xiu hurriedly replied.

"Lord, you go to the Mi Mansion to rest for a while." Zhao Fan persuaded.

Jia Rong showed a look of calm on his face, and sneered: "Could it be that the people of Xuzhou think that the sword in my hand is not good!" ”

After finishing speaking, he pulled out the Qingyu Sword and joined the battlefield, although the people and horses on both sides were all dressed in black, Jia Rong could still distinguish his own soldiers at a glance through the clothing.

With the sharpness of the Qingyu Sword and Jia Rong's huge strength, it is difficult to meet opponents on the battlefield, and the deaths of the black-clothed people encountered are extremely tragic.

One person suddenly killed one of the men in black, and the blade of the sword pointed directly at Jia Rong.

Without waiting for Zhang Xiu and the others to step forward, Jia Rong snorted coldly and was not afraid to step forward.

After only a moment of fighting, Jia Rong felt that the other party's swordsmanship was not bad, although it was not as ethereal and ruthless as Wang Yue's swordsmanship, but it could also be called a hall and entered the room, and the power contained in one move and one style was much stronger than that of other black-clothed people, and it was estimated that his status among black-clothed people was not low.

The chaotic scene aroused the fighting spirit in Jia Rong's chest, after being in a high position, such a battle seemed to have less and less fate with him, Jia Xu and other officials always admonished him not to take risks easily for various reasons, and in the face of the officials' hard persuasion, he had no choice but to compromise.

The two swords intersected, and Jia Rong slashed at the man in black with all his strength, how could the long sword in the man in black withstand such a collision, and it broke immediately.

The black-clothed man was already in his heart, looking at the Qingyu Sword in Jia Rong's hand, full of eagerness, he glanced around, and found that there were not many of his own people left in the field, so he took a few steps back and walked towards the distance.

"Poof!" A crossbow arrow hit the man in black in the back, and his figure paused slightly, and his speed did not decrease, and he swept into the distance, but in a moment, he disappeared.

The leader left, and the men in black in the field were quickly eliminated, leaving only two alive.

Jia Rong looked at these black-clothed people outside Mi Mansion with a gloomy face, in Xuzhou, he could mobilize so many dead soldiers, and only the Cao family and the Chen family could have such strength, Liu Bei had just arrived, it was impossible to do such a stupid thing, and when Xuzhou was in his hands, he would not get anything, and he would not be in a hurry.

Mi Zhu was woken up by Jia Rong in his sleep, and when he saw the scene outside the mansion, Mi Zhu's face immediately became gloomy.

instructed the family to clean up, and took Jia Rong to Mi Mansion.

"Brother Zizhong, it seems that Mifu is not safe, if it weren't for the fact that my subordinates have some means, hum." Ignoring the blood stains on his body and face, Jia Rong picked up the wine cup and drank it all.

Mi Zhu said in a deep voice: "Thank you General this time." ”

"Don't be so polite, just give a little hard work, but I can't stay in this Mifu, otherwise I don't know how to lose my life."

Mi Zhu's face was bitter, and there was a hint of pleading in his voice: "General, how about giving me another three days, I know that the general has no interest in Xuzhou, but the Mi family has a big business in Xuzhou, and it will not be able to complete it in a while if you want to transfer away." ”

Jia Rong pondered for a moment and said slowly: "For the sake of Brother Zizhong's help to the Xiliang Army for many years, this matter will not be mentioned for the time being, but some people in Xuzhou City can no longer sit still, Brother Zizhong must pay attention when he goes out, on the way to Xuzhou, the Mi family's caravan found the heavy armor and weapons of the Xiliang Army, this matter is under investigation, Zizhong also has to carefully investigate Xia Han." ”

"Thank you, General!" Mi Zhu bowed down, Jia Rong was able to stay in Mi Mansion, that is to say, the lives of the Mi family were temporarily safe, and he could transfer the Mi family's family business in Xuzhou as soon as possible, as for Xia Han, the Mi family has a big business, and the businessmen who manage it don't know how much geometry it is, how can Mi Zhu know who Xia Han is, but if he wants to investigate Xia Han, it must be much simpler than Jia Rong.

How prosperous the land of Chang'an is, not like the Central Plains, there are many wars, a little careless, I am afraid that the family business accumulated for several generations will be lost and lost, with his and Jia Rong's former friendship, it is not difficult to place the Mi family in Chang'an, thinking that Jia Rong personally invited himself to settle in Chang'an, and shirked it for other reasons, but now he has to mention the events of the day with a cheeky face, Mi Zhu is also quite embarrassed.

Thinking of the current situation in Xuzhou, Mi Zhu suddenly felt how wise it was to choose to cooperate with Jia Rong back then, and in the face of life and death, his face has become less important.

When Cao Bao saw the man in black covered in blood appear in front of him, his reverie was immediately interrupted, "How can this be?" ”

The face of the man in black was a little pale, "The Mi family is heavily guarded, and we were attacked by a wave of people in black before we got close to the Mi family, and I also escaped with all my might to return to Cao Mansion." ”

"The rest are dead?" Cao Bao said in disbelief, the hundred people brought by the man in black are the dead soldiers trained by the Cao family, and the weapons and martial arts are all at the upper level.

The man in black bowed his head in shame.

"Go down and rest." Cao Bao said.

After the man in black retreated, Cao Bao's calm face disappeared, changed to a solemn color, and tightened the vigilance in the mansion.

The next day, the city of Xuzhou was still bustling, and the people of Pingming naturally didn't know what happened outside Mifu last night, and there were faint bits and pieces of blood on the ground, but they didn't attract the attention of passers-by.

Tao Qian summoned Xuzhou officials and once again proposed to cede Xuzhou to Liu Bei for governance.

A small number of officials in the house stood up to express their support, which shows that Liu Bei has been quite popular in the city recently, and he has been busy with work.

Mi Zhu snorted coldly and arched his hand: "My lord, last night I went to Mifu to make trouble, and I implore you to mobilize soldiers in the army to protect Mifu." ”

Tao Qian exclaimed: "There is such a thing? ”

Mi Zhu said: "The martial arts of the black-clothed people who went to Mifu are all good, if it weren't for the desperate fight of the Mifu family, I'm afraid that Mifu has been at the hands of thieves." ”

"This matter should not be underestimated, which general in the army is willing to take people to Mifu to guard, Mi Lord did his best when Cao Cao invaded Xuzhou, and he was a great hero of Xuzhou." Tao Qian said.

After finishing speaking, one of them hugged his fists and said: "I am willing to lead the soldiers to guard the Mifu and not let Xiaoxiao make trouble." ”

"Good! It was General Qin's departure. ”

This general surnamed Qin, surnamed Qin Minghuang, is one of the best generals in the Xuzhou army, its force is not inferior to Cao Bao, but in the army is upright, and Cao Bao has a lot of collisions, so it has not been reused, when the Cao army attacked the city, was promoted from the army by Mi Zhu, the official position is like a rocket, quickly became a general in the army, is so grateful to Mi Zhu, at first hearing the news, naturally willing to go.

Because Mifu was attacked by an unknown black-clothed man last night, Tao Qian's proposal to give up Xuzhou to Liu Bei was skillfully rotated by Mi Zhufang's people, and a group of officials followed the clouds, talking about the current public security in Xuzhou, and the words contained a lot of dissatisfaction with Cao Bao.

The literati's verbal offensive is not something that Cao Bao, a military general like Cao Bao can deal with, his face is indifferent, and his heart is already full of anger, on the other hand, Liu Bei has not been affected at all, as if he doesn't know at all, Cao Bao still follows, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he is at the mercy of the civil officials.

Leaving the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, Cao Bao snorted coldly: "When Liu Bei sits in the position of the lord of Xuzhou, he will be the first to take your Mi family!" ”

Cao Cao still led the army to confront Yuan Shu, with the support of grain and grass, Cao army captured the city one after another, Yuan Shu had no power to fight back, Yuan Shu led the civil and military generals, fled in a hurry, during the period, to Yuan Shao, Liu Biao and other princes rescue, all to no avail, some of the strategists and generals under their command saw that Yuan Shu had been difficult to resist, and actually fled to the Cao army camp.

In view of the current situation of the Yangzhou army, Yuan Shu was also anxious in his heart, and immediately organized 30,000 combatable soldiers, intending to fight to the death with the Cao army.

Now Yuan Shu is the Son of Heaven, the royal driving pro-conquest, the morale of the soldiers should be high-spirited, but on the other hand, the soldiers under Yuan Shu's command, although the physique is very strong, the walking team is crooked, and many soldiers are holding spears, more like holding a hoe, are some soldiers who have just been recruited from the people, and they have no combat experience.

The army of 30,000 made Yuan Shu regain some self-confidence, and took Li Feng and others to drive the expedition in person, wanting to recapture all the lost land.

Unexpectedly, the 30,000 army was robbed by the Cao army on the night when it was just encamped, and the soldiers who were temporarily organized by the young and strong fled in embarrassment, and Yuan Shu led the generals to flee back to the place of governance in a hurry, and the city was closed.

Singles' Day is here, and the brothers who don't have a daughter-in-law have a happy holiday, and I wish everyone can find their other half as soon as possible.
