Chapter 83 Swan meat, can you eat it

(It’s a new week again, please vote for Sanjiang, please vote for recommendation, Yanzi please support me)

Looking at Mi Huan's shy expression, Yuan Fang immediately guessed it and sneered: "Liu Bei, he probably wants to marry you, Miss Mi."

Mi Huan's graceful body couldn't help but tremble, and she looked at Yuan Fang in surprise, adding a bit of color to her beautiful face.

That expression was obviously meant by Yuan Fang.

"You...how do you know?" Mi Huan's voice was filled with embarrassment.

"Liu Bei is very ambitious. As an outsider, if he wants to establish himself in Xuzhou, he must naturally find the support of the local powerful people in Xuzhou. Your Mi family is one of the three major families in Xuzhou. He wants to marry your Mi family, and there are

Nothing strange."

Although Yuan Fang was half drunk, his mind was clear and he could reveal Liu Bei's thoughts with a few words.

Mi Huan sighed softly: "It seems that the young master has seen everything clearly. I guess that Liu Bei means the same."

"Then what do you think, brother?" Yuan Fangming looked at Mi Huan.

Mi Huan avoided Yuan Fang's gaze and said softly: "During the previous Duchang breakout, Liu Bei abandoned his brother in a critical moment. My brother had already seen through Liu Bei's character, so of course he would not agree, so he naturally declined."

For some reason, Yuan Fang felt vaguely relieved after hearing these words, and secretly let out a breath.

Mi Huan was as careful as cotton, and noticed a slight change in Yuan Fang, and said with a smile: "Why, do you still want me to marry that Liu Bei?"

The young man was slightly startled, but he didn't expect that she would ask this question.

Then, he said calmly: "How could it be? Liu Bei is my enemy of Yuan Fang. If your Mi family marries Liu Bei, you will also become my enemy."

Hearing Yuan Fang's answer, Mi Huan's eyes flashed with disappointment, as if Yuan Fang's answer was not what she expected.

"It turns out that there is only a relationship of interest between the young master and me. The young master only wants to gain profit and does not want me to marry Liu Bei." Mi Huan sighed quietly.

Yuan Fang asked rhetorically: "Isn't it because of the interests of the Mi family that Miss spent money and time on me, Yuan Fang?

"Of course it's not all, I still..."

Mi Huan blurted out, but hesitated. The words after "I return" almost rushed to her throat, but she swallowed it hard.

Yuan Fang looked at Mi Huan with curiosity, waiting for her next words.

She bit her red lips lightly, her pretty face turned dark, as if the words she swallowed were difficult to speak, making her even more embarrassed.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed her embarrassment in just a moment, and when she raised her head, she had regained her dignified and calm demeanor.

With a faint smile, Mi Huan said: "It's okay not to talk about this matter. Right now, what Young Master should be most concerned about is to defeat Gongsun Zan as soon as possible. The situation in the south is tight, and we are still waiting for Young Master to rescue him. Our Mi family has invested a lot of money in Young Master, but

I don’t want to let this go to waste.”

“A good one doesn’t want to be in vain!”

Yuan Fang laughed, and a hint of madness appeared on his handsome face, "I can tell you that within a few days, I will severely defeat Gongsun Zan's arrogance. Now that Miss Mi has come to Pingyuan, she is waiting to fight with him."

Let’s watch the show together.”

Mi Huan secretly claimed to be surprised, thinking that Gongsun Zan had an army of 40,000, and it would be difficult for you to hold the city and defend yourself, so why would you want to defeat Gongsun Zan within a few days?

It's a bit too crazy.

Mi Huan then thought again, this Second Young Master Yuan is very cunning and can often come up with unexpected tricks. Now that he is so confident, I'm afraid he really has something to rely on.

At the moment, Mi Huan could only suppress his doubts and wait to see how Yuan Fang defeated the enemy.

A few days later.

In the evening, south of the plain, at the ferry on the north bank of the Yellow River.

Dozens of merchant ships were docked at the ferry, and the "Mi" family's caravan was flying and dancing in the river breeze.

Two thousand soldiers from Yuan, disguised as Dingfu, were boarding various fishing boats in an orderly manner.

On the trestle, a brave general Xiong Jian stood proudly on his horse, holding a big gun and carrying two iron halberds on his back.

Not long after, more than ten riders came out of Pingyuan City, rushed into the ferry, and headed straight for the trestle.

Taishi Ci looked from afar and saw that Yuan Fang was arriving. He quickly rode his horse forward to meet him, cupped his hands and said, "Sir, my two thousand men who dare to die have all taken their positions and obey your orders."

Yuan Fang stopped his horse's hooves, glanced at the ships, nodded and said: "It's not too late, let's go out immediately before it gets too late."

"No!" Tai Shici responded and turned around to leave.

Yuan Fang thought of something and said solemnly: "Ziyi, whether our army can defeat the enemy quickly depends on you in this battle. Don't let me down."

Taishi Ci's figure was shaken, and a bit of excitement could not help but appear on his heroic face, and a sense of mission arose spontaneously.

However, he did not have too many generous words. He only cupped his hands and said: "Don't worry, young master, Ci will fight with all his strength."

After saying that, Taishi Ci rode on board, and dozens of merchant ships carrying 1,700 soldiers and 300 cavalry slowly sailed away from the ferry on the north bank and headed east along the Yellow River.

Yuan Fang stood on the trestle and watched Taishi Ci lead his army to leave.

Next to him, Yuan Gui couldn't help but said: "Young Master, just a few days after Taishi Ci returned to surrender, the Young Master has entrusted you with important tasks. Isn't it a bit..."

Yuan Fang waved his hand, interrupted Yuan Gui's reminder, and said confidently: "Tai Shi Ci is a righteous man, his loyalty is beyond doubt, and he travels between Liaodong and Donglai all the year round. Yu Bohai is the most familiar with him. Apart from him, no one is more familiar with him."

He is qualified for this important task.”

Seeing that his son trusted Tai Shi Ci so much, Yuan Guisui did not dare to say anything more.

As the boat went further and further away, on the warship, Taishi Ci also stared at the ferry on the north bank, slowly disappearing from sight.

Taking a deep breath, Taishi Ci murmured: "Master Xianzheng, you trust me so much, Taishi Ci. I will definitely not let you down in this battle."

Without any further hesitation, Taishi Cimo went to the bow of the ship, ordered the ships to raise their sails, and headed eastward along the current.

More than thirty merchant ships sailed along the river, sailed out of the Yellow River outlet in two days, turned north, and sailed into the Bohai Sea.

Five days later.

The blue waves are blue and the sky is high and the clouds are pale.

More than thirty Mi family merchant ships sailed slowly on the vast sea.

At the bow of the ship, Taishi Ci supported the side of the ship and set up a pergola with his hands, looking up to the west.

At the end of the sea, a thin, winding line loomed in Taishi Ci's field of vision. That was the coastline.

Although the thirty ships of the Mi family were all old ships that had been used for maritime transportation all year round, Taishi Ci still did not dare to go too far from the shore to avoid encountering unexpected waves.

Since leaving the Yellow River, Taishi Ci has been strictly ordering his fleet to sail close to the coastline. All he can do is to keep the coastline within his ultimate field of vision.

"There is a situation on the coast -" the lookout post on the mast suddenly pointed to the west and shouted excitedly.

Taishi Ci's spirit perked up, and he looked west anxiously. Sure enough, he saw more fishing boats near the coast, and a number of houses could even be vaguely seen along the coast.

"Haixing City, Haixing City has arrived. Brothers, cheer up for me, change boats quickly, and follow me to fight ashore." Taishi Ci shouted excitedly.

After experiencing the torment of storms and waves at sea for so many days, Taishi Ci and his troops finally arrived at the scheduled landing site.

This Haixing City is a small city near the sea to the east of Bohai County. From this city, all the way to the west, the cavalry can run straight to Nanpi City in less than two days.

Taishi Ci's mission to go to sea this time was exactly on Yuan Fang's order, to sneak across Gongsun Zan's rear by sea and attack Nanpi, the enemy's grain garrison.

On that day, when Yuan Fang and Guo Jia were planning, what they wrote on the table was exactly the same word "sea".

Burning the enemy's grain on land would not work, so come from the sea. Even in his wildest dreams, Gongsun Zan would never have imagined that Yuan Fang would make an unprecedented surprise attack on Nanpi, his important grain-gathering town, from the sea.

Three hundred cavalry, more than a thousand infantry, and more than a hundred small boats quickly sailed to the beach.

The fishermen along the coast never dreamed that Yuan Jun would unexpectedly appear from the sea. These honest fishermen were all dumbfounded when they saw a large number of troops coming ashore.

Taishi Ci had no time to pay attention to them. After landing, he quickly led his surprise attack army and went straight to Haixing City.

When the Haixing County Magistrate appointed by Gongsun Zan was shocked to learn that Yuan Jun had appeared outside the city, and before he had time to make any reaction, Taishi Ci had already sent his cavalry into the city like a divine soldier descended from heaven.

There were only a hundred native soldiers in this small county, so how could they be the opponent of Taishi Ci's Jingqi? They were all killed in an instant. Taishi Ci took over this small seaside city with almost no effort.

On that day, Taishi Ci took all the county treasury and gave more than a thousand soldiers a feast and a good night's rest.

When it was still dark the next day, Taishi Ci led his army out and ran along the road leading to Nanpi.

From Haixing City to Nanpi, there are few cities along the way, and the terrain is flat, almost a flat river, which is most conducive for cavalry to gallop.

Taishi Ci led 300 cavalry to go ahead and galloped all the way. When they encountered a city, they did not attack but bypassed it. They ran wildly for more than a hundred miles day and night.
