    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 205

    Chen Ziang beheaded eight important court generals in a row under the capital city, and his terrifying fighting power made the court generals fearful.

    In the end, the prince had to order the eight gates of the capital to be closed tightly, and was prepared to guard the city until the arrival of the king's soldiers and horses.

    Chen Ziang and the others stole the limelight in the royal capital, but he was not dazzled by the victory.

    There are 100,000 imperial guards stationed in the capital city, and there are countless cobbled together soldiers and horses. They are only afraid to leave the city because they don't know their own details.

    If the imperial court knew that they only had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, I am afraid they would not need to wait for the arrival of King Qin's soldiers and horses, and they would come out in full force.

    Although the fighting power of the Qinghe army is strong, it has little chance of winning in the face of hundreds of thousands of imperial troops.

    After Chen Ziang showed off his power under the capital city, he immediately ordered to retreat 20 li and set up camp.

    Chen Zi'ang ordered to retreat 20 li to set up camp, also to prevent the imperial army in the royal capital from finding out his details.

    And even though he frightened the court so that no one dared to go out to fight, but the court was crouching tiger, hidden dragon, and he didn't dare to make a big deal out of it.

    In case a brave general attacked the camp at night, the distance of twenty miles was enough for him to get the warning from the scouts and react.

    When Chen Ziang led his troops to set up camp in a village twenty miles away from the capital city, King Qin's troops who had been ordered to die also came from all directions.

    Many of these Qinwang soldiers and horses have entered the territory of Gyeonggi Province a long time ago, and the troops who have the courage to rush up to gain military merit are hanging their heads on the tree trunks beside the official road at the moment.

    Chen Zi'ang and the others defeated several King Qin's troops, chased and killed the Governor of Gyeonggi Province for nearly a hundred miles, and they were so scared that King Qin's soldiers did not dare to approach easily.

    Now that the king's capital is in a hurry, they got a death order and had to surround them, trying to break the siege of the king's capital.

    The first army to arrive at the royal capital belonged to a prince, and his manor was in Gyeonggi Province.

    He gathered several family soldiers in the manor, collected 5,000 soldiers and horses, and was the first to arrive at the capital city in the afternoon.

    Following the arrival of the first King Qin soldiers and horses, another military lord soon arrived with three thousand King Qin soldiers and horses, stationed in the west of the capital city.

    These King Qin soldiers and horses already knew where Chen Ziang's camp was stationed, and because of Chen Ziang's reputation, they naturally didn't want to make trouble.

    Therefore, they all subconsciously bypassed Chen Ziang's camp and went directly to set up camp under the capital city.

    After all, if they are in danger, they can retreat into the city with their backs against the capital, which is better than being hunted down in the wilderness.

    Following the arrival of the king's soldiers and horses all the way, countless camps were erected in the wilderness outside the king's capital, and the tents of the soldiers were all in a radius of ten miles.

    Colorful flags fluttered in the wind outside the capital, and countless princes and nobles arrived at the capital as if they were going to a market.

    "With us here, the bandit army will never want to step into the capital!"

    "With our Changlin army here, the bandit army will never come back!"

    "My emperor, please rest assured, within three days, I will take the head of the thief chief and present it!"

    After these loyal ministers and generals of the imperial court arrived at the royal capital, they left their troops outside the city, and they couldn't wait to enter the city, patting their chests to express their loyalty to the emperor and the prince.

    Seeing King Qin's edict, so many loyal ministers and good generals came to defend the capital, the old emperor and the prince were very happy.

    Now the entire garrison of the king's capital is under the control of the prince, so the emperor let these soldiers and horses of the king belong to the prince's control.

    The prince did not dare to neglect these princes and nobles, and held a sumptuous banquet overnight to welcome them.

    When the banquet was held in the capital city, under the night, teams of new King Qin soldiers and horses rushed to the capital city one after another.

    These King Qin troops came from all directions, and the torches were particularly visible under the night, like fire dragons.

    However, these King Qin troops had long heard of Chen Ziang's reputation. They came to the capital to show their faces, not to die.

    Their troops crowded the fields, woods and cottages outside the capital city, but none of them dared to approach Chen Ziang's camp.

    In particular, Chen Ziang released many prisoners of war in the early stage. With the free publicity of these prisoners of war, Chen Ziang and his troops evolved into hundreds of thousands of troops.

    And the generals under Chen Zi'ang's command were also rumored to be miraculous, even??The Eight Great King Kongs and the Five Great Tiger Generals, each of them is a figure who can call wind and rain.

    Facing such a powerful army, these Qin Wang soldiers and horses naturally did not dare to fight rashly, because they did not want to become cannon fodder.

    On this journey, the king's soldiers and horses arrived at the capital of the king. In just over a day, more than 100,000 people gathered.

    And the Qin Wang soldiers and horses from farther away are still coming one after another. With the increase of soldiers and horses, the prince's confidence has also become much stronger.

    In order to regain the face lost in the past few days, the prince ordered several small groups of troops to tentatively attack Chen Ziang's camp.

    However, without exception, these small troops all suffered devastating blows, and their heads were piled up outside the camp to form a spectacle.

    In the next few days, although the crown prince still wanted to send troops to attack, all the kings and soldiers from all walks of life agreed to come down, but after walking not far away, they killed some people in the villages and ran back.

    Chen Ziang's prestige has been deeply engraved in the bones of the various armies of the dynasty, making them quite afraid of Chen Ziang.

    For the sake of safety, the prince decided to wait for more soldiers and horses before going to a decisive battle with Chen Ziang.

    Chen Zi'ang and the others now only have 20,000 infantry and 8,000 cavalry. Such a small force is not enough to feed the dynasty's army.

    However, they insisted on bluffing, and under the prying eyes of hundreds of thousands of imperial troops, they were at ease.

    In order to avoid their strength being exposed, Chen Ziang deliberately set up many camps, and all their 8,000 cavalry wandered around the camp to prevent any enemy scouts from approaching.

    "General, the troops led by the fourth prince are only one day away from us."

    "About 20,000 black cavalry troops are rushing back from the west in the starry night."

    "In the past two days, Dynasty scouts and rangers have infiltrated my camp more than 20 times, all of which were repelled by me, but they can't be hidden for long."

    "Once the hundreds of thousands of troops under the capital city react, we will be devoured."

    Facing the dynastic army all around, Chen Ziang was able to remain calm and natural, but Li Lang and the others could not sleep at night.

    After all, with a powerful enemy by his side, no one can sleep well, because his head may move at any time.

    "Send me an order to prepare dry food for ten days, and the army will withdraw at midnight."

    Now that most of King Qin's soldiers and horses have been attracted to the capital, and he has completed his strategic mission, Chen Ziang decided to retreat.

    After hearing what Chen Ziang said, Li Lang and the others, who had been on tenterhooks, finally breathed a sigh of relief. They really didn't want to stay in this ghostly place anymore, it was too dangerous.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
