The next day after the battle of Xuzhou.
The brothers Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, exhausted from all the journey, finally arrived...
At this time, the outside of the city had already been cleaned up by Cao Jian's orders; but the traces left by tens of thousands of casualties were obviously not so easy to be completely wiped out!
From the city gate to the area dozens of miles outside the city: from time to time, you can still see some blood stains left by the casualties of the soldiers on both sides!
The bloodstained and devastated scene was shocking!
Even the two brothers of the Mi family couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts when they saw it:
"Did this... just happen after a war?"
Looking at the corpses that could occasionally be seen outside the city, Mi Zhu suddenly had an ominous premonition:
"That's right! The second son of Cao led a small group of troops and easily seized Xuzhou. With Lu Bu's personality, I think he would never sit idly by!
Although Lu Bu's main force is now trapped in Xiapi, there are still many trusted soldiers in other places!
If I'm right, it's probably the rest of the troops sent by Lu Bu to seize the city.……"
After hearing this, his younger brother Mi Fang's face suddenly changed:
"What? If that's the case, then isn't Xuzhou City very dangerous?"
"Could it be... Could it be that the city has been breached and was taken back by that bastard Lu Bu?"
"Brother, our little sister is still in Xuzhou City!
If she really encounters an accident again, what should we do?……"
After hearing this, Mi Zhu stopped immediately:
"Second brother, don't panic!
Judging from the traces on the ground, the battle is probably over! What if the city has really been breached?
Then it's too late to say anything now. We can only retreat to Xiaopei for the time being and make long-term plans. What if the city is still in the hands of Cao's army?
Then our little sister must be safe too!"
After a few words, Mi Zhu quickly sorted out his thoughts after calming Mi Fang down.
In this era of shining stars and wise men, although his intelligence is not top-notch, as the head of the Mi family, the richest businessman in Xuzhou, he still has some brain power! After just a few seconds of simple thinking, Mi Zhu had made a decision:
Second brother, let's wait outside the city first; and send one or two servants to find out the truth!
After confirming that Xuzhou is still in the hands of Cao's army and there is no danger in the city, it will not be too late to enter the city together!"
After hearing this, Mi Fang naturally obeyed everything.
After half a cup of tea... the servant quickly brought back the latest news:
"The city is still in the hands of Cao's army!
The flag with the word"Cao" is still flying on the top of the city wall, and it can be seen from afar.……"
Mi Fang was instantly delighted when he heard this:
"Great! Big brother, let's go into the city quickly!"
After hearing this, Mi Zhu did not rush to agree.
With many years of business experience, he has long been accustomed to all kinds of intrigues and deceptions, and naturally he is very cautious in his actions!
He thought about it briefly, and then asked with a little concern:
"Are you sure the city is safe? Have you gone closer to see for yourself what's going on in the city?"
The servant nodded quickly after hearing this.
"Don't worry, the city is very safe now!"
"Not only did I see it with my own eyes, I also asked someone in person!
Just as the head of the family expected, this place was indeed attacked by an enemy army yesterday!
However, it has been repelled now!
I heard that it was the second son of the Cao family in the city who showed his prowess!
With just two loud swipes, he killed two leading generals in the enemy army on the spot!
The enemy army was instantly frightened and completely turned into a pile of loose sand!
Not long after, they were killed by the Cao army like cutting melons and vegetables, leaving no one alive.……"
When these words came out, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang could not help but be shocked!
Mi Fang, a useless warrior, was really shocked:
"Is the second son of the Cao family really that powerful?!"
In addition to being amazed, this guy was even stupid enough to rationalize the previous behavior of Cao Jian and Guo Jia:
"If this is true, then it makes sense that he specifically ordered people to bring Madam Gan and his younger sister over for protection.……"
Mi Zhu, who was listening to this, couldn't help but frown:
He was really speechless and helpless about his useless brother!
Compared to Mi Fang, who didn't think about anything, he, as the eldest brother, was obviously thinking more after being shocked:
"If the second son of Cao is really as good at both civil and military affairs as the rumors say?
If such a person, with the support of the Cao family, really has evil intentions towards my younger sister?
Then this matter is quite tricky, and it is beyond the ability of my Mi family to handle it!
This time, I am afraid that I will fail the trust of the master.……"
When he thought of this, Mi Zhu felt a chill in his heart!
"That's all! When the time comes, I'll go and find out what the second young master has to say.……"
After sighing secretly, Mi Zhu was too lazy to think too much: things had come to this point, so he could only lead Mi Fang and a team of servants behind him and head straight to the gate of Xuzhou City...
Considering the identity and status of the Mi family in Xuzhou City, their popularity is quite high!
After the two brothers of the Mi family ran to the city gate, they didn't even need to introduce themselves, someone had already recognized their identities! They did n't even need to explain their purpose, the gate guards already knew their purpose: they led them straight to the residence where Cao Jian was now in the city...
Then, they saw a tall and handsome guy from a distance, who had already been waiting at the door.
After seeing the two brothers, the man smiled meanly:
"My two brothers-in-law from the Mi family, Zixiong has been waiting for you for a long time.……"
