"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 214
"Your Highness, the soldiers are too tired, why don't you rest at Zhen'an Mansion for one night before leaving."
The fourth prince and the others marched all the way from Yunyang Mansion to the north in a hurry. They joined forces with King Qin non-stop, and they were already exhausted.
It was already late at night, and the exhausted staff couldn't bear the turbulence, so they rode up to the Fourth Prince and persuaded him to rest in Zhen'an Mansion for the night.
The fourth prince led the army to fight outside, and he had long lost his handsome appearance. Instead, he was bearded and scumbag, with a bit of iron and blood killing atmosphere.
"Where is the bandit army now?"
After the fourth prince reined in his horse, he looked back at the dusty soldiers and asked his staff.
"Now that the bandit army has left the capital and wandered around the western and southern parts of the province, His Royal Highness has mobilized troops to chase and intercept them, trapping them within a radius of a hundred miles. They should be unable to escape this time." The staff replied.
"Since that's the case, let them do it first. Let's rest here for one night."
Now that Chen Ziang is no longer a threat to the king, the fourth prince is also relieved.
He was ordered to go out to suppress the Qinghe army. Although he won several victories, he almost wiped out the main force of the Qinghe army.
But Chen Ziang didn't play his cards according to common sense, and even attacked all the way north to the capital.
As the commander-in-chief who suppressed the Qinghe Army, the Qinghe Army had already attacked the capital, so he could hardly absolve himself of the blame.
After receiving King Qin's edict, the fourth prince had to temporarily hand over the task of encircling and suppressing the remnants of the Qinghe Army to his general Yang Hao, who personally led the army back to the capital.
Now that they are exhausted, and their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced, even if they find Chen Ziang, they probably have no chance of winning.
Therefore, he agreed to the suggestion of his staff, and prepared to take a rest in Zhen'an Mansion, and at the same time, he wanted to see the situation before talking.
After all, he knew that Chen Ziang was treacherous and cunning. Even if he was besieged by the prince's troops within a hundred miles of the border between the west and the south, according to his understanding, Chen Ziang would never sit still.
Now the prince is the Marshal of the Royal Capital Guard, if Chen Ziang can make the prince suffer, he would be happy to see it happen.
"Chen Ziang, I rushed back in a hurry, don't let me down."
Thinking of this Chen Ziang who once cost him his army, the fourth prince muttered to himself, his eyes full of anticipation.
The fourth prince led his troops to Zhen'an Mansion, and they stopped to rest because they were exhausted. After all, they were too tired.
"The fourth brother came back so quickly?"
After hearing that the fourth prince had led his troops to Zhen'an Mansion, the prince also felt a little tricky.
He is now the Marshal of the Royal Capital. He has been humiliated by Chen Ziang, and he is aggressively trying to take revenge on Chen Ziang and get back his position.
Now that the fourth prince is back, if Chen Ziang falls into the hands of the fourth prince, it will be a great achievement.
At that time, the fourth prince will not only be able to redeem his crimes, but also increase his influence in the army by beheading Chen Ziang. This is not what he wants to see.
"Order all the ministries to eliminate the bandit army Chen Ziang's unit within three days. Chen Ziang, I want to see people when I live, and I want to see the corpse when I die."
The fourth prince came back to claim credit, so the prince was also in a hurry, and had to issue an order, asking all the troops to hurry up and eliminate Chen Ziang.
"Let people keep an eye on the fourth child. Don't let Chen Ziang fall into his hands."
"No!"
Now Chen Ziang seems to have become a piece of fat, whether it is the prince or the fourth prince, they all want to go up and take a bite.
But obviously, the Fourth Prince knew a little more about Chen Ziang, knowing that Chen Ziang would not be easy to deal with, so he was not in a hurry to charge up, but was preparing to recharge his batteries in the dark and make a move at the critical moment.
After the crown prince gave an order, all soldiers and horses of Qin Wang also realized that this was a signal for a general attack.
Although these Qin Wang soldiers with their own ghosts want to preserve their strength, they will go up to pick up bargains when others are almost as good as Chen Ziang and the others.
But now everyone is staring at Chen Ziang and the others. If they slow down, they might not even be able to drink the soup.
Although they thought they did not have the strength to destroy Chen Ziang's main force, they still had confidence in beating the side drums and eating up some of the Qinghe army's small troops.
Therefore, soldiers and horses from all walks of life are advancing towards the centripetal of the encirclement from all directions.?Almost a carpet push, all the grass, ravines, villages and woods were not spared, for fear of letting Chen Ziang go.
When the infantry was pulling a net to narrow the encirclement, the cavalry along the way was on standby as a reserve force wandering around the periphery. Once Chen Ziang was found somewhere, they would be able to quickly reinforce them.
Although the prince set up a very powerful net, hundreds of thousands of troops surrounded it from several directions, but what they didn't know was that Chen Ziang had already disguised himself as King Qin's army and jumped out of the encirclement.
"Your Highness, all the soldiers and horses have not found any trace of the bandit army."
The prince and the others made a lot of noise, so the fourth prince in Zhen'an Mansion could get news all the time.
"Didn't find any trace?"
The Fourth Prince frowned when he heard that Chen Zi'ang and the others had not been found after a whole day's carpet search.
"It is true that not a single living bandit army was found."
"How big is the encirclement?"
"There are still two counties."
"Is this Chen Ziang really going to wait for death?"
The fourth prince knew Chen Ziang well, and he didn't believe that Chen Ziang would wait for the encirclement to shrink without any reaction.
"This Chen Ziang is very cunning and has never played cards according to common sense. Maybe, maybe he has already escaped." An aide guessed.
After hearing the staff member's words, the fourth prince also stopped and turned to look at the staff member.
"what did you just say?"
"Your Highness, what's the matter?"
"Say what you just said again."
"I said that Chen Ziang is very cunning and has never played cards according to common sense. He might have escaped long ago."
The Fourth Prince seemed to have caught something, and quickly walked up to the map, his expression becoming serious.
"Send all the scouts out and search towards the east. I suspect that the bandit army has jumped out of the encirclement!"
After looking at the map, the fourth prince suddenly turned around and said.
"ah?"
"Your Highness, even if the bandit army jumped out of the encirclement, how can you be sure that they have gone east?"
"In the past few days, Chen Ziang has been tossing back and forth between the east and south areas, attracting all the pursuers to this area, and the king in the north has 100,000 imperial guards stationed, only the east is weak now, maybe he and fled eastward."
"But this is all your guesswork, Your Highness"
The fourth prince said coldly: "So send me all the scouts, and don't let go of any clues!"
"No!"
Following the order of the fourth prince, teams of scouts rushed out of Zhen'an Mansion and headed towards the various prefectures and counties in the east of Gyeonggi Province. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
