    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 210

    After Chen Zi'ang and the others broke out from the siege, they were covered in blood, and more than half of the 8,000 cavalry were lost, which can be said to be a heavy loss.

    But they have no choice, because they don't attack the dynasty army and make noise to attract attention, it is difficult for their more than 20,000 infantry to withdraw.

    Fortunately, soldiers and horses from all walks of life in the dynasty gathered around the capital, and there were very few soldiers and horses outside the capital. This was their chance to break through.

    Chen Ziang and the others rushed back to their camp without stopping. The camp was empty except for the hundreds of cavalry guarding the horses.

    "Change horses!"

    Chen Ziang and the others were also exhausted, but there was no time to rest now, so they had to withdraw immediately.

    The cavalrymen of the Qinghe Army who looked like blood men quickly replaced their horses with new horses, passed through the camp, and escaped into the darkness in the distance.

    In just a moment, the cavalry of the tiger battalion with a fierce tiger embroidered on the military flag was the first to arrive outside the Qinghe military camp.

    Facing the dark Qinghe army camp, their cavalry did not rush in rashly, because they were ambushing in fear.

    Soon, several cavalry units arrived one after another, but they were weak and did not dare to act rashly.

    The Qinghe army camp stood quietly in the darkness, like an ancient giant beast, containing infinite murderous intent.

    "My lord, let's go, the first merit will be ours."

    There are more and more soldiers and horses of the dynasty gathered outside the camp. Facing the pitch-black Qinghe Army camp, some generals have burning eyes and are eager to try.

    "Stupid you, that bandit army is so fierce, I don't want to wipe out all my people."

    "My lord, what about us?"

    "Wait, wait for other soldiers to go up first, let's see the situation."

    "My lord is wise."

    Those troops who arrived first did not dare to act rashly. They were waiting for the infantry troops behind, and they didn't want to be this early bird.

    But the follow-up soldiers were not fools either. Chen Ziang was a fierce man, and just now he led his troops to break through more than ten camps. They didn't dare to go to the first place to die, because they wanted to reap the benefits of fishing.

    Fortunately, the prince's order came soon, asking all the troops to surround the Qinghe army camp, and fight decisively after dawn.

    The soldiers and horses of the kings from all walks of life also got the order of the prince. They lit torches and formed fire dragons, surrounded them from several directions, and surrounded the Qinghe army camp with water.

    King Qin's soldiers and horses under the Prince's order blocked the encirclement of the Qinghe army camp, but no one dared to attack first.

    After the prince learned that the soldiers and horses pursuing from all walks of life had surrounded the Qinghe army camp, he was not in a hurry.

    "The bandit army has become a turtle in a urn. All ministries are strictly guarding against it. Don't let a bird fly out!"

    Qin Wang's soldiers and horses suffered a lot in the successive fights, especially in the dark night, there were many incidents of accidental injury.

    It is not long before dawn, so the prince decided to wait for dawn before launching a tentative attack on the Qinghe army.

    He has gathered hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command now, and his soldiers are already strong, so naturally he is not afraid of Chen Ziang and the others.

    Originally, the crown prince was thinking of waiting another day for a decisive battle with the Qinghe army, but Chen Zi'ang and the others made such a fuss that forced his plan to be advanced.

    However, the prince was more cautious, because he was worried that Chen Ziang and the others would take the opportunity to escape in the melee at night, so he ordered to attack again during the day.

    Soldiers and horses from all walks of life filled the fields and woods outside the Qinghe army camp. Even the roofs of the villages were full of people, and the entire camp was surrounded by water.

    Now they have hundreds of thousands of troops, and they have surrounded Chen Ziang and the others, and they are sure of victory.

    But what they didn't know was that what they surrounded was only an empty camp, and there was no one in it except for thousands of neighing horses.

    After dawn, Qin Wang soldiers and horses on the periphery were able to see clearly the situation in the Qinghe army camp. Except for the contiguous army tents, there was not a single sentinel.

    The daring prince sent a team of scouts to approach Chen Ziang's camp cautiously.

    These scouts all went with the will to die. They climbed over the fence and entered the camp tremblingly.

    But to their surprise, they were not attacked by arrows, and they checked several military accounts in a row, but they were all empty.

    Experienced Scout CaptainFeeling that something was wrong, they immediately dispersed and headed deep into the camp.

    But wherever they passed, apart from the empty military tents, there was not even a living person.

    In the end, the thousands of scarred war horses they saw in front of the large tent of the Chinese army were replaced by Chen Ziang and the others.

    And it was the neighing sound of these thousands of scarred horses that frightened countless soldiers and horses of Qin Wang, who dared not approach them, which was unbelievable.

    However, Chen Zi'ang's reputation was too fierce, and the soldiers and horses of the kings from all walks of life also had their own little calculations, which caused Chen Zi'ang and the others to flee long ago, but they still surrounded an empty camp here.

    "What, the bandit camp is empty?"

    When the prince got the report that Chen Ziang and his camp were empty, he was also full of astonishment.

    "The bandit army has at least one hundred thousand troops. How could it be possible that they disappeared suddenly? How rare are they going to escape?"

    The prince is also full of confusion now. After many investigations by him, although Chen Ziang's troops are not as exaggerated as hundreds of thousands, there are always hundreds of thousands, otherwise it would be impossible to attack the city and pull out the stronghold.

    But just overnight, this army of at least 100,000 disappeared from under their noses, how could he accept it.

    "Send out all the scouts and scouts, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find the bandits for me!"

    The prince lost troops and generals under Chen Ziang, and countless soldiers and horses were lost last night, which can be said to be a disgrace.

    He now holds hundreds of thousands of King Qin's troops in his hands, and is about to avenge his shame, but who knows that their opponents have disappeared.

    The crown prince was very angry, but the soldiers and horses from all walks of life were greatly relieved, at least they didn't have to fight Chen Ziang desperately.

    The reason why they lead their troops to serve the king is also to reap benefits, not to fight Chen Ziang desperately.

    Now that Chen Zi'ang has run away, they have shown their face and have nothing to lose. They have rescued the king's capital, and maybe they can get rewards. For them, this is the best result.

    However, for those King Qin troops who were loyal to the imperial court, it was not a good result for Chen Ziang to slip away.

    Because they have seen how powerful Chen Ziang is, if they let him go like this, wouldn't it be letting the tiger go back to the mountain?

    Although Chen Ziang and the others cleared up the traces as much as possible, the Dynasty army was also crouching, and soon someone discovered the direction of their retreat.

    "Chasing, I must wipe them all out!"

    When the prince learned that Chen Zi'ang and the others had gone west, he was also furious, and ordered all the ministries to pursue them with all their might.

    Those troops who were loyal to the imperial court or wanted to gain military exploits pursued aggressively, vowing to tear Chen Ziang's body to pieces.

    However, those Qin Wang troops who originally wanted to be kings to show their face and perfunctory the court were not so active.

    Many troops even turned back to the capital city after leaving for a short time, threatening that they would stay here to protect the capital because they were worried that Chen Ziang would kill him.

    Some people also said that their army lacked food, grass, military equipment and military pay, and the prince needed to allocate some, otherwise, they would be too hungry to walk, and naturally they would not be able to pursue the enemy.

    Facing these soldiers and horses who came to the king, the prince could not treat them badly, so he could only allocate military salaries and food to them from the treasury, so that these troops who had not fought a battle would all call the prince wise.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
