    The battle flag of the Qinghe Army was planted on the top of the city of Guiyi Mansion, and tens of thousands of soldiers from the Qinghe Army entered this bustling city.

    Deputy Commander Chen Ru took less than a week from receiving the military order to capture Guiyi Mansion to capturing the city with little effort.

    On the one hand, Chen Ru sent people to report the victory to Marshal Zhang Dayuan, and on the other hand, he ordered a celebration banquet to be held in the city.

    Guiyi Mansion has eight counties under its jurisdiction. Because of the vigorous uprising broke out in Qinghe Province, the roads were blocked, and as a result, the taxes and food collected by the counties were still piled up in the treasury in the city and could not be transported to the capital.

    Now this large amount of tax and food has directly fallen into the hands of the Qinghe Army, greatly enriching the logistics supplies of the Qinghe Army.

    Now the Qinghe Army can be said to have money, food, soldiers and horses, and has become the most powerful military force in Qinghe Province.

    The Qinghe garrison directly under the governor of Qinghe and the garrison troops in various counties were completely lost, so that no one can threaten the Qinghe army.

    Although the Far Eastern Dynasty sent the fourth prince, Long Tian, ??to command the powerful Qinghe army.

    However, the internal power of the Far Eastern Dynasty was fierce, and the prince Longjun naturally did not want the fourth prince to gain military prestige, so as not to threaten his own status.

    Therefore, in the formation of the conquest army, the prince and his party have been stumbling everywhere, whether it is food, grass or ordnance, it has been delayed.

    Even though the fourth prince, Long Tian, ??really wanted to lead his army to Qinghe province to fight against the rebels, he was unable to leave for a long time.

    It has to be said that the open and secret struggles within the Far Eastern Dynasty helped the Qinghe Army to a certain extent, allowing the Qinghe Army time to grow and develop.

    After capturing Guiyi Mansion, Deputy Commander Chen Ru ordered a three-day celebration banquet, with enough wine and meat, making tens of thousands of officers and soldiers howl with excitement.

    Chen Ziang and his two thousand elite lost half of them in the first battle. Except for the wounded soldiers, only 700 of them were able to fight.

    However, these 700 people are all veterans who have seen blood, and they are the backbone of Chen Ziang's 9th Battalion.

    After Chen Ziang and his 9th Battalion handed over the city defense, they gathered three thousand old and weak women and children and stationed the camp outside the south gate.

    Although it was only a temporary garrison, the camp of their 9th Battalion was well-defended, and the Juma Antlers trench was not bad, and the entire camp looked heavily guarded.

    Chen Ziang and his 9th Battalion received a lot of rewards, and Chen Ziang made a lot of money, so every soldier who participated in the war earned a lot of money.

    The dead and wounded soldiers received more generous pensions. Although they lost a lot this time, the morale of the entire 9th Battalion did not decrease but increased.

    And Chen Ziang led their 9th Battalion to another victory, and Chen Ziang's prestige in the 9th Battalion was also in full swing.

    Chen Ziang was promoted to a general by the deputy commander, but he still served as a general of the 9th Battalion.

    At the celebration meeting, Chen Ziang naturally did not forget his brothers who followed him through life and death, and asked for credit for them.

    Soon, deputy commander Chen Ru signed the appointment, promoted Li Lang, and Zhang Bao was the deputy general of the 9th Battalion to assist Chen Ziang in handling military affairs.

    Half a month ago, Li Lang and Zhang Bao were captives and soldiers, and within a short period of time they had climbed to the high positions of deputy battalion generals. They were also very happy.

    But they knew very well in their hearts that everything they had now was fought for by Chen Ziang, so they were even more determined to Chen Ziang.

    Although Wang Hu and the others stayed with Chen Ziang for a longer time, they stayed behind this time and did not participate in the battle, so they only received meat and wine as rewards.

    Seeing Li Lang and the others leaping to become deputy battalion generals, Wang Hu and the others were also envious, and secretly swore in their hearts that they must go to the battlefield to gain credit next time, and they can't just stay behind and take care of the military resources in the later stage.

    Now there are groups of Qinghe army soldiers everywhere in Guiyifu city, all of them flushed from drinking, celebrating this big victory.

    In the camps outside the city, meat was cooked in cauldrons, and soldiers sat around and punched and drank.

    This time, the brothers of the 9th Battalion gave Chen Ziang a face, so Chen Ziang also gave them three days off from training, as a comfort to them.

    ? After all, you can't lead soldiers with a tight string all the time. It's Chen Zi'ang's style to relax.

    While everyone was celebrating, Chen Ziang took Li Changqing to the prison in the southern district of Fucheng with his own soldiers.

    Although Li Changqing is still a half-grown child, he has also killed people on the battlefield, and he has a ruthless spirit.

    In order to take care of him, Chen Ziang sent him toHe became a general by his side.

    "My lord, what are we doing here?"

    Li Changqing saw that Chen Ziang brought him to the dilapidated southern part of the city, and he looked around full of doubts.

    "We are here to recruit soldiers."

    Chen Ziang pointed to the place where Qinghe army soldiers stood guard in front and said.

    "That's a prison."

    "Yes, we are recruiting prisoners."

    Soon, Chen Ziang was outside the prison.

    The guard here is a hundred-man general, and he naturally knows Chen Ziang, a newly promoted general with outstanding military achievements.

    "The last general has seen the general!"

    The general trotted up to Chen Ziang, stood upright, with his right hand clenched across his chest, and saluted Chen Ziang as a standard rebel salute.

    "This is a military order signed by the deputy commander."

    Chen Zi'ang handed over the military order from Deputy Marshal Chen Ru, and the general of a hundred soldiers read it and quickly let it go.

    The prisoners in this prison are all prisoners on death row from the Far Eastern Dynasty. There are different opinions within the Qinghe Army on how to deal with them.

    Some lieutenants believed that they were heavy prisoners of the Far Eastern Dynasty. Now that the Qinghe Army has occupied this place, they should all be released.

    Deputy Marshal Chen Ru was still hesitating because he was worried that the release of these vicious people would affect the security of the city.

    Chen Zi'ang was worried about the lack of troops, so he suggested to Deputy Marshal Chen Ru that these severely sentenced prisoners should be directly incorporated into his 9th Battalion to supplement the battle losses.

    Chen Ru felt that this was also a solution, so he decided to ask Chen Ziang to give it a try, and if it didn't work, forget it and close it first.

    Torches were burning in the dark and damp prison, and there was an unpleasant stench in the air. Fat rats were scurrying around. The conditions here were very harsh.

    When Chen Ziang stepped into this place, he couldn't help but frowned slightly. The environment was so bad that he began to worry about whether these prisoners on death row would be infected with some diseases.

    When Chen Ziang looked at the surrounding environment, in each prison, a pair of fierce eyes were also staring at Chen Ziang, the uninvited guest.

    "How many people are in this prison?"

    Chen Ziang ignored those fierce gazes, and turned his head to ask the hundred generals who were following behind.

    "Reporting to Lord General, there are 308 death row prisoners here."

    "Detain them all in the open space outside."

    The smell inside was really bad, after Chen Ziang gave an order, he turned around and left the prison.

    "No!"

    The hundred generals did not dare to neglect, and immediately sent someone to drive out all the prisoners.

    Something went wrong when these heavy prisoners were being detained. A heavy prisoner made a sudden move and knocked down several soldiers of the Qinghe Army.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
