    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 131

    "We are ordered to interrogate the spies of the bandit army, please cooperate!"

    The mighty grain transport team was intercepted by heavily armed guard soldiers.

    "I am a thousand-strong garrison general of the Gyeonggi Province. We are a food team transported to the front line. There will be absolutely no spies from the bandit army. Please let us go."

    The garrison officer sitting on horseback felt that the interrogation would delay time and wanted to pass directly.

    "I'm sorry, all people and convoys passing through here must undergo interrogation."

    Although a centurion general of the Provincial Guard appeared very polite, his tone was unquestionable.

    "My lord, let them investigate, we can also take this opportunity to rest."

    Seeing the tension in the atmosphere, a small garrison officer couldn't help but speak.

    Seeing the other party's murderous look, although the garrison officer was upset, he didn't want to cause trouble.

    "Then let's check¡ª"

    The garrison officer snorted coldly, and rode his horse towards the tea shed, wanting to drink some tea to relieve the heat.

    The hundred generals of the Provincial Guard waved their hands, and the soldiers of the Guard headed towards the convoy, and began to check the servants and the carriage.

    The folk husbands are also tired from the journey, and they can take the opportunity to take a rest. They are also looking for a cool place to rest.

    The garrison soldiers who were sweating profusely from the heat also relaxed their vigilance and let the garrison soldiers check.

    "Brother, how is the battle in Qingyang Mansion going?"

    A garrison soldier escorting grain and grass saw the guard soldier poking the grain and grass inside the carriage with a stab gun, so he couldn't help but leaned forward to ask.

    "We don't know."

    The guard soldier replied after hesitating for a few seconds.

    "Didn't you come from Qingyang Mansion? How could you not be clear?" The guarding soldiers were full of doubts.

    "You talk too much."

    When the garrison soldier was about to continue to ask the bottom line, he suddenly felt a cold light flashing in front of his eyes, and his neck was a little cold.

    A thin red line appeared on the garrison soldier's neck, which soon spread into a scarlet blood hole, and the blood gushed out unstoppably.

    "you"

    The guard soldier covered his bleeding neck, and fell to the ground with a thud.

    "Puchi!"

    "ah!"

    And when the guard soldier fell to the ground, there were dull sounds and screams of sharp knives piercing the flesh.

    These Qinghe troops, disguised as guard soldiers, approached the unsuspecting guard soldiers in the name of interrogation, and directly attacked at close range, which caught people off guard.

    Thousands of garrison troops who were drinking tea in the tea shed would be stupefied when they saw that their men were being hacked and killed by those garrison troops.

    "What's going on, we are our own people!"

    The thousand generals of the garrison thought there was a misunderstanding, so they stood up abruptly and shouted loudly.

    "It's you who killed!"

    At this moment, the guard soldiers who were drinking tea on the table next to them also violently murdered, and the sharp knives slashed at the thousands of guards.

    "ah!"

    Amidst the splashing of blood and screams, several subordinates of the guarding general were cut down to the ground immediately.

    Thousands of guards ran towards the distance in fear, but were soon nailed to the ground by a sharp arrow.

    The number of soldiers escorted by this food transport team was only about two hundred. Facing the sudden attack at this moment, there was no effective resistance at all in the panic.

    ? Seeing the melee fighting on the official road, a guard soldier fell in a pool of blood, and the civilian men turned pale with fright.

    "Run!"

    I don't know who yelled, and these trembling peasants immediately fled towards the surrounding fields.

    The brothers of the Qinghe army who pretended to be the guards didn't have time to manage the fleeing civilians, but kept besieging the soldiers of the dynasty guards who were escorting food and grass.

    In just a moment, more than 200 soldiers escorting food and grass were beheaded to death, and blood and corpses were everywhere on the official road.

    "Burn all the food and grass for me!"

    In charge of commanding and attacking the dynasty army's food transport team was Zhou Ba, General Zhou Ba of the Qinghe Army Camp, who gave orders loudly.

    Zhou Ba was a bandit, and he is familiar with these things that block roads.?, so Chen Ziang sent him out.

    When Chen Ziang led his troops towards Qingyang Mansion, Zhou Ba led an elite small army to leave.

    The task they shouldered was very simple, that is to cut off the food road for the army of the Qingyang Mansion Dynasty.

    "My lord, what a pity to burn so much food."

    Many soldiers couldn't bear to see the piles of grain and grass piled up on the long convoy.

    They are all people who are used to living a hard life, and they have a subconscious cherish for food.

    "We don't have enough manpower, so much food and grass can't be transported away, we can only burn it, it can't be cheap for the Dynasty Army!"

    Zhou Ba naturally understood the thoughts of the soldiers, but he was ordered to cut off the grain road. Since he couldn't take it away, he had to burn it on the spot.

    Although the soldiers felt it was a pity, they still resolutely carried out Zhou Ba's order.

    Soon, the carts of grain and grass burned in the raging fire, and the black smoke column shot straight into the sky.

    "Withdraw!"

    When he was sure that the food and grass were almost burned, Zhou Ba waved his hand, led the soldiers away from the official road, got into the woods and left.

    In the evening, a cavalry patrol of the Dynasty Army discovered the grain convoy that had been attacked.

    Seeing the corpses all over the place and the convoy that had been burned to ashes, the face of the leading officer of the patrol suddenly sank.

    Soon, the news of the attack on the food transport team quickly spread to the Qingyang Mansion Dynasty Army Camp.

    "What?!"

    The fourth prince was also shocked when he learned that the food transport team was attacked and wiped out.

    After all, food and grass are very important. Once the frontline army lacks food, there is no need to fight at all.

    "Who did it?!"

    "Your Highness, according to the patrol team's investigation, it should be bandits who attacked the food delivery team."

    When he heard that it was a bandit, the fourth prince also heaved a long sigh of relief. What he feared most was a premeditated attack by the Qinghe army.

    "Order the Black Cavalry to send a cavalry unit to exterminate this group of bandits. The safety of the food road must be guaranteed."

    "No!"

    "How many days can the food and grass in the army last?"

    After the fourth prince finished speaking, he turned his attention to the quartermaster.

    The quartermaster hurriedly stood up and replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, the food and grass in the army are only enough for the army for three days."

    ?Because of the long distance and the fact that food from the rear is constantly being transported to the front line, there is not a lot of food in the army.

    "Send people quickly to urge the next batch of food and grass, and we must ensure the supply of food and grass for the army."

    "No!"

    As the commander of the army, the fourth prince naturally understands the importance of food and grass, so he dare not be negligent.

    But the fourth prince didn't know that it was not ordinary bandits who attacked the grain and grass, but the elite troops under Chen Ziang's command.

    Zhou Ba, who was in charge of leading the attack on the Dynasty Army's food transport team, was born in a mountain bandit. He is very familiar with how to attack and how to avoid pursuit.

    It is precisely because of Zhou Ba's experience and professional ability in intercepting the road that Chen Ziang entrusted him with this difficult task.

    After all, talents must be placed in the right position in order to play a greater role, otherwise, the pearl will be dusted.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
