    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 111

    "Whoever kills Chen Ziang, the chieftain of the bandits, will be promoted to three ranks and rewarded with 500,000 gold!"

    The crown prince also knows that these soldiers and horses of Qin Wang have their own ghosts and have no real benefits. They are not willing to sell their lives.

    However, the crown prince is also quite jealous of Chen Ziang, knowing that once the tiger is released, it will be very difficult to destroy it later.

    Therefore, the prince also issued a generous reward order to encourage soldiers from all walks of life to chase and kill Chen Ziang.

    Being promoted to three ranks and rewarding half a million gold is not very attractive to those nobles from aristocratic families. After all, they themselves are powerful and wealthy.

    But for those little nobles and generals, this temptation is already worth their lives.

    "His Royal Highness, don't worry, if I don't kill the thief chief Chen Ziang, I swear I won't be a human being!"

    "The head of the thief chief Chen Ziang belongs to my Lin family, so don't snatch it from us!"

    Many King Qin's troops who were still afraid of Chen Ziang also took action one after another under the generous rewards offered.

    They no longer slowed down, but started chasing Chen Ziang and the others in the direction they were retreating.

    There are so many soldiers and horses from all walks of life that the official roads are congested, and many soldiers and horses have to march from the woods and fields.

    Thousands of soldiers and horses trampled past, and many crops that were about to mature were quickly trampled to pieces. The people along the way dared not speak out.

    Many small Qinwang troops also knew that even if their strength caught up with Chen Ziang, they might not be able to beat them.

    So they turned their attention to the cottages along the way. On a dark night, a group of soldiers surrounded a village.

    Hundreds of villagers in the village all fell to the ground in their sleep, even the babies in their arms were spared.

    In order to destroy the corpses and traces, when this group of soldiers and horses left, they burned the village to ashes with a fire, and then excitedly took their heads to the capital to claim credit.

    ?Since the heads are all dripping with blood, it is difficult to tell whether they belong to soldiers of the Qinghe Army.

    Although the crown prince was quite suspicious of these heads, in order to boost morale and set an example of beheading bandits, he decided to reward this army heavily.

    "A thousand-man general, Han Tong, led his troops to kill three hundred bandit soldiers, promoted to general, and rewarded ten thousand gold!"

    ?After the news came out, the morale of the soldiers and horses from all walks of life was greatly boosted. For many ambitious people, this is a godsend opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune.

    "Report! Battalion General Zhang Hai beheaded five thousand bandits!"

    "Report, General Zhou Bo led his troops to kill a thousand bandits!"

    The prince originally wanted to set an example and encourage all the troops to kill thieves with all their strength, but unfortunately, things backfired.

    ?News from each unit spread frequently, and carloads of bloody heads were sent to the capital. In just two days, each unit killed more than 30,000 thieves.

    When all the Qin King troops were struggling to kill the "thief", Chen Ziang had already led his troops to Yunhe Town in the west of Gyeonggi Province.

    Chen Zi'ang and the others have been fighting since they broke out from the royal capital, repelling several cavalrymen from the dynasty who were chasing up, and only took a breath when they got rid of the pursuers and arrived at Yunhe Town.

    "Take the time to rest and recharge your strength, supplement horse feed and drinking water."

    Although he got rid of the chasing soldiers temporarily, Chen Zi'ang knew very well that there were too many King Qin's soldiers and horses gathered in Gyeonggi Province, and they were not completely out of danger yet.

    Sure enough, when Chen Ziang and the others rested in Yunhe Town for just over three hours, the scouts came galloping from afar.

    "Report! About 5,000 royal cavalry are less than ten miles away from here!"

    "Report! About 20,000 Dynasty troops were found in the north!"

    After hearing the report from the scouts, Chen Ziang, who had just squinted for a while, couldn't help cursing.

    "It's like a mad dog, really biting us."

    "General, why can't we fight?"

    Fatty Lu, who was covered in scars, heard that the Dynasty army was chasing him. Instead of showing the slightest fear, he was full of fighting spirit.

    "Fuck you, let's have this little property, don't waste it all."

    Chen Ziang and the others only have four thousand riders left, so it can be said that the loss is quite heavy.

    His 8,000 cavalry took the initiative to attack the soldiers and horses of the Qin King from all walks of life, thinking of a surprise attack at night, and since the soldiers and horses from all walks of life had different orders, he could pick up a bargain and at the same time cover Li Lang's army.The infantry retreated.

    However, he still underestimated the enemy. He thought that those soldiers and horses of King Qin were weak in fighting power, and they could kill a few in and out.

    But who knew that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, among the army of the Dynasty Army King, actually had quite a few troops with good combat effectiveness.

    If it weren't for their luck, their cavalry would capsize in the gutter and fall under the capital city.

    Now that they are exhausted and have few troops, they naturally cannot fight head-on with the pursuers.

    "Blow the horn, assemble and retreat!"

    With Chen Zi'ang's order, the cavalry of the Qinghe Army who had just rested for a short time had no choice but to get on their horses again and retreat towards the west.

    It didn't take long for a young general in white robes to lead five thousand cavalry to surround Yunhe Town.

    But to their disappointment, they were one step too late, Chen Ziang and the others had already retreated one step ahead.

    "Where did the bandits go?"

    The young white-robed general arrested a townsman and asked Chen Ziang where they were going.

    "They went west along the official road."

    "Chase!"

    Soon, the sound of horseshoes rumbled, and thousands of royal horsemen chased westward along the official road.

    And many soldiers and horses arrived in Yunhe Town one after another. After they asked about the situation, they also flocked to the west to pursue.

    The people in the town opened their eyes, seeing the troops with colorful flags passing by, it was really magnificent.

    A day later, a group of the slowest infantry also arrived in Canal Town. They knew that when they caught up, they might not be able to drink the soup.

    So their commander decided to take the people in the town to have a knife. Anyway, the prince couldn't tell the difference between the bloody heads.

    And when Canal Town is slaughtered, they can also plant the blame on Chen Ziang and the others. This is a worthless business.

    But when they were about to attack the people in the town, a cavalry in black quietly appeared outside the town and attacked the infantry.

    Facing this sudden appearance of cavalry, thousands of infantrymen in the town were directly stunned, thinking that the friendly army had misunderstood.

    Because they knew that Chen Ziang had already fled to the west, at least a day away from them, and they never expected that Chen Ziang would turn back.

    The battle ended soon, thousands of dynasty infantry were wiped out, and all the food and grass fell into the hands of Chen Ziang and others.

    Chen Ziang and the others rested here for half a day and then went south leisurely.

    "The bandit army has appeared in Yunhe Town again!"

    The troops of the dynasty that were chasing to the west quickly lost track of Chen Ziang and the others. When they were depressed, who knew that when the news came, Chen Ziang actually ran behind them.

    "The whole army turned around and headed back to Yunhe Town!"

    "Brothers, run for me, the first one to reach Yunhe Town will be rewarded with a thousand gold!"

    "Don't let others take the lead, hurry up!"

    After receiving the news, the troops from all walks of life rushed back non-stop, full of dust and exhaustion.

    Just like this, Chen Ziang and the others led the troops of various dynasties to run from east to west, and the soldiers scolded their mothers angrily, but they had to follow behind Chen Ziang's ass.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
