Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 458: The Mi Family Was Attacked

What's even more difficult is that the Mi family has connections with the Xiliang Army in Chang'an. Liu Bei doesn't want to provoke the Xiliang Army for the time being. Judging from the weapons Jia Rong gave to the three of them, the Xiliang Army's military strength has reached its peak. Therefore, we must be careful in every possible way when dealing with enemies like Mi Zhu.

When Liu Bei went to Mi Mansion, he saw Mi Zhu's younger sister. He was astonished and wanted to marry. On the one hand, it was because of Mi Huan's appearance, and on the other hand, it was to get Mi Zhu's support. Unexpectedly, Liu Beiyi had already betrothed to Cao Bao. Cao Yan, the son of Cao Yan, refused because of the reason. Liu Bei didn't care about a woman. He thought that Mi Zhu's sister would marry Cao Yan, and the Cao family and himself were already on the same path, so he was determined. But what happened in the city recently made him He felt a sense of crisis, especially Mi Zhu's performance when Tao Qian stepped aside.

After Liu Bei left, Cao Bao's hazy eyes instantly became sober, and he ordered in a low voice: "The Mi family has always obstructed Mr. Tao from giving Xuzhou to Liu Bei. It is a disaster after all. If you don't want to get rid of it, you take some people there and don't leave any traces. "

"No!" A figure flashed out of the darkness, cupping its fists.

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

Just as Jia Rong was about to fall asleep, he heard the sound of weapons colliding outside, the voice was a little low, obviously a certain distance from the Mi Mansion, turned over and sat up, lightly picked up the green sword on the bedside, and walked quickly to the outside of the Mi Mansion go.

I saw that in the dark night, countless people were fighting, and the sparks from the collision of weapons were particularly dazzling in the dark night. People from 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.

"My lord, there are about a hundred of these men in black. They are well-trained and equipped with excellent weapons. They are obviously targeting the Mi family." Zhang Xiu hurriedly replied.

"My lord, go to the Mi Mansion to rest for a while." Zhao Fan persuaded.

Jia Rong's face showed a serious look, and he sneered: "Could it be that people from Xuzhou think that the sword in my hand is not good?"

After speaking, he pulled out his green sword and joined the battlefield. Although both sides were dressed in black, Jia Rong could still identify his own soldiers at a glance through their clothes.

With the sharpness of the Qingzhi sword and the great strength of Jia Rong, it is rare to meet an opponent on the battlefield. The men in black they met died in extremely tragic ways.

Suddenly one of the men in black came out, and pointed his sword at Jia Rong.

Without waiting for Zhang Xiu and others to come forward, Jia Rong snorted coldly and stepped forward without fear.

After fighting for only a moment, Jia Rong felt that the opponent's swordsmanship was good. Although it was not as ethereal and ruthless as Wang Yue's swordsmanship, it could still be said to be superior to others, and the power contained in each move was stronger than other men in black. How much, it is estimated that the status among the men in black is not low.

The chaotic scene aroused the fighting spirit in Jia Rong's chest. After he was in a high position, such a battle seemed to be less and less destined for him. Jia Xu and other officials always used various reasons to advise him not to take risks lightly. Facing the persuasion of the officials, he had no choice but to compromise.

When the two swords collided, Jia Rong slashed at the man in black with all his strength. How could the long sword in the man's hand withstand such a collision, it broke immediately.

The man in black was already in his heart, looking at the green sword in Jia Rong's hand, he was full of enthusiasm, looked around, and found that there were not many of his own troops left in the field, so he hurriedly retreated a few steps, and walked towards the distance.

"Pfft!" A crossbow arrow hit the back of the man in black, his figure paused for a while, his speed did not slow down, and he flew towards the distance, but disappeared after a while.

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

Jia Rong looked gloomyly at the men in black outside the Mi Mansion. In Xuzhou, only the Cao family and the Chen family can mobilize so many dead men. Such a stupid thing, when Xuzhou is in his hands, he will not be in a hurry if he can't get anything.

Mi Zhu who was sleeping was woken up by Jia Rong, seeing the scene outside the mansion, Mi Zhu's face immediately became gloomy.

He ordered the servant to clean up, and took Jia Rong to Mi's house.

"Brother Zizhong, it seems that the Mi Mansion is not safe. If it wasn't for the people under my command to have some tricks, hehe." Regardless of the blood on his body and face, Jia Rong picked up the wine cup and drank it down.

Mi Zhu said in a low voice, "Thank you General this time."

"You don't need to be so polite, just pay for your hard work, but I can't stay in this Mi Mansion anymore, otherwise I don't know how I lost my life."

Mi Zhu had a bitter look on his face, and there was a hint of pleading in his voice: "General, how about giving me another three days, I know the general is not interested in Xuzhou, but the Mi family has a big business in Xuzhou, and it will not be a while before they want to transfer away. It will be done."

Jia Rong pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "For the sake of brother Zizhong's help to the Xiliang Army for many years, I will not mention this matter for now, but some people in Xuzhou City can't sit still anymore. You must pay attention, on the way to Xuzhou, the Mi family's caravan found heavy armor and weapons from the Xiliang army, this matter is under investigation, and Zizhong must also carefully investigate Xia Han."

"Thank you, General!" Mi Zhu bowed and bowed. Jia Rong was able to stay in the Mi Mansion, which meant that the lives of the Mi family members were safe for the time being, so 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 in charge don't know how many people, how could Mi Zhu know who Xia Han is, but it must be much easier to investigate Xia Han than Jia Rong.

The land of Chang'an is so prosperous, unlike the land of the Central Plains, there are many wars, and if one is not careful, the family business accumulated for generations may be lost in one day. Based on the old friendship between him and Jia Rong, the Mi family was resettled in Chang'an It was not a difficult task. Mi Zhu was also a little embarrassed when he thought that Jia Rong personally invited him to settle in Chang'an and shirked it for other reasons, but now he had to brazenly mention the events of that day.

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

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

The man in black's face turned pale, "The Mi's house is heavily guarded. Before we got close to the Mi's house, a group of men in black came across. I escaped desperately to return to Cao's mansion."

"The rest are all dead?" Cao Bao said in disbelief. The 100 people brought by the man in black were dead soldiers trained by the Cao family. I still underestimated the strength of the Mi family.

The man in black lowered his head in shame.

"Go down and rest." Cao Bao said.

After the man in black retreated, Cao Bao's calm expression was replaced by a solemn expression, and the security of the mansion was tightened.

The next day, the city of Xuzhou was still bustling with people. Naturally, the common people did not know what happened outside the Mi Mansion last night. There were some faint blood stains on the ground, which did not attract the attention of passers-by.

Tao Qian summoned Xuzhou officials and once again proposed that Xuzhou be governed by Liu Bei.

A small half of the officials in the house stood up to express their support. It can be seen that Liu Bei has been quite popular in the city recently, and he has been busy.

Mi Zhu snorted coldly, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, last night Xiaoxiao went to Mi's mansion to cause trouble, I beg you to mobilize soldiers from the army to protect Mi's mansion."

Tao Qian was startled: "There is such a thing?"

Mi Zhu said: "The men in black who went to the Mi Mansion are all skilled in martial arts. If it weren't for the family members of the Mi Mansion fighting to the death, I am afraid that the Mi Mansion has already fallen into the hands of thieves."

"This matter should not be underestimated. Which general in the army is willing to lead someone to guard Mi's mansion. Master Mi did his best when Cao Cao invaded Xuzhou. He is a great hero of Xuzhou." Tao Qian said.

After finishing speaking, one of them clasped his fists and said: "Xiaozhi is willing to lead soldiers to guard the Mi Mansion, so that Xiaoxiao won't make trouble."

"Okay! General Qin will go."

This general surnamed Qin, surnamed Qin Huang, was one of the most powerful generals in the Xuzhou army. His military strength was no less than that of Cao Bao, but he was upright in the army, and he often collided with Cao Bao, so he was not reused. Mi Zhu was promoted from the army, his official position was like riding a rocket, and he quickly became a general in the army, so he was grateful to Mi Zhu, and when he heard the news, he was naturally willing to go.

Because Mi Mansion was attacked by unknown men in black last night, Tao Qian's proposal to cede Xuzhou to Liu Bei was cleverly managed by Mi Zhu's people. Contains a lot of dissatisfaction with Cao Bao.

The verbal offensive of the literati is not something that a military general like Cao Bao can handle. On the surface, he looks indifferent, but his heart is already full of anger. On the other hand, Liu Bei is not affected at all, as if he didn't know it at all. Cao Bao still followed suit, his eyes Narrowing his eyes slightly, he let the civil servants scold him.

Leaving the State Shepherd's Mansion, Cao Bao snorted coldly: "When Liu Bei takes the position of the Lord of Xuzhou, he will be the first to attack your Mi family!"

Cao Cao still led the army to confront Yuan Shu. With the support of food and grass, Cao Jun captured the city one after another, and Yuan Shu was unable to fight back. Seeing that Yuan Shu was overwhelmed by the enemy, some advisers and generals fled to Cao's camp.

Regarding the current situation of the Yangzhou Army, Yuan Shu was also very anxious, and immediately organized 3 soldiers capable of fighting, intending to fight Cao Jun to the death.

Now that Yuan Shu is the Son of Heaven, and the soldiers are marching in person, the morale of the soldiers should be high, but looking at the soldiers under Yuan Shu, although they are very strong, the walking team is crooked, and the posture of many soldiers holding spears is more like holding a gun The hoes are all newly recruited soldiers from the common people without any combat experience.

With an army of [-], Yuan Shu regained some confidence, and led Li Feng and others to march in person, intending to regain all the lost land.

Unexpectedly, the [-] army was robbed by Cao's army that night just after they set up camp.
