    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 215

    All the way, King Luqin's troops searched for traces of Chen Ziang and the others, but they searched every forest and crop field, and they didn't even find the Qinghe army.

    "Your Highness, the Eleventh Battalion of the Imperial Guard has not found any trace of the bandit army."

    "The Maple Leaf family did not find any trace of the bandit army."

    "The 15th local garrison found no sign of the bandit army."

    The prince thought that he had the chance to win, but when he received feedback from various soldiers and horses, he was also at a loss.

    "Where did the bandits go?"

    The prince was very depressed. He had set up a net, but now that the net was collected, it was found to be empty. This made him really unacceptable.

    "Look! The thieves must be hiding somewhere, let them search again, and don't let go of any corner!"

    Hundreds of thousands of them chased and intercepted Chen Ziang and the others, but in the end it was nothing to fetch water from a bamboo basket. The prince's mood can be imagined.

    The crown prince issued a death order, and the soldiers and horses of the kings from all walks of life had to toss again within a hundred miles of the encirclement.

    All the people were carefully identified, and even every ditch was searched repeatedly, but the result was frustrating, Chen Ziang and the others were still not found.

    "Your Highness, will this thief army pretend to be King Qin's army?"

    At this time, a staff member of the Eastern Palace felt that Chen Ziang and the others could not escape in full view. The reason why they have not been found now may be that they were mixed in King Qin's army.

    After all, there are hundreds of King Qin's troops, and they are not subordinate to each other, and the flags and uniforms are all varied.

    Once Chen Ziang and the others pretend to be King Qin's troops, it will be difficult for them to find out.

    "Deploy 50,000 imperial guards to go, and I will carefully screen every Qinwang army!"

    The prince felt that the staff's guess was reasonable, so he dispatched 50,000 Imperial Guard troops to the front line, and began to screen out the troops from all walks of life.

    The food, grass, and military salaries of these King Qin troops are temporarily provided by the capital, so the prince ordered them to go to the imperial guards to collect food and grass, and at the same time screen them.

    ?When the news spread, some soldiers from all walks of life yelled at each other, and some were suspicious of each other, which suddenly made people panic, and they didn't trust each other.

    While the crown prince was still tossing around, Chen Ziang and the others had already shed their shells and entered Pingtou Town under Luzhou Prefecture in the eastern part of Gyeonggi Province.

    Because they were under the banner of the Tie Family of Wuyuan Province, and they were King Qin's troops, so when they arrived in Pingtou Town, they collected a lot of food and grass supplies openly and aboveboard.

    "General, as long as we pass Pingtou Mountain, we will enter the province in the middle of the river, and we will be able to completely get rid of the pursuers."

    Chen Zi'ang and the others bluffed and deceived them all the way under the banner of King Qin's soldiers and horses, but the local officials didn't even have the slightest suspicion.

    Now Fatty Lu and the others admire Chen Ziang, he is really brave, and they originally wanted to fight their way out.

    Who knew that Chen Zi'ang actually came up with such a way to fish in troubled waters, and actually deceived the chasing soldiers of the dynasty.

    "I don't know if Li Lang and the others have arrived in Hezhong Province. After all, they have a large number of people and a big target, so they are easier to be discovered."

    Chen Ziang and the others only had four thousand soldiers, but the infantry led by Li Lang had twenty thousand, and their marching speed was even slower.

    Although they attracted troops from various dynasties, Chen Ziang is still very worried about Li Lang's safety.

    "General, don't worry, there is no news that our formed troops have been wiped out from the news we have inquired along the way, so General Li and the others should be safe." Fatty Lu comforted.

    "I hope so."

    "Pass down the order to let the brothers eat and drink enough, and leave here early tomorrow morning to go to the province in the middle of the river."

    "No!"

    Chen Ziang was also exhausted, because they had to deal with hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, and if they were not careful, the entire army might be wiped out.

    So these days he has hardly slept a full night's sleep, and has always been in such a state of high nervous tension.

    Fortunately, they are about to leave the Gyeonggi Province where the enemy is heavily concentrated. Once they enter the Hezhong Province, the situation will be much better.

    He inquired and found out that the Hezhong Province was not peaceful either. There were several rebel armies with a size of tens of thousands. The local troops were entangled and did not pose much threat to them.

      As long as they enter the province in the river, even if there are pursuers coming, they will be able to deal with it with ease.

    Moreover, the Hezhong Province is no better than the Gyeonggi Province. There are many manors of princes and nobles in the Gyeonggi Province, and they can easily pull out an army of thousands of people.

    Although there are many rich and wealthy households in the province in the middle of the river, in general, the army strength of the dynasty is relatively weak.

    After they reunited with Li Lang, they really didn't need to pay attention to the ordinary small groups of enemy troops. Anyway, they were elites in all battles.

    Chen Zi'ang and the others took a brief rest in Pingtou Town, replenished drinking water and dry food, and then left here, preparing to cross Pingtou Mountain and enter the River Province.

    ?Because they were under the banner of Tie Family in Wuyuan Province, the guardian of Pingtou Town insisted on giving over 5,000 silver coins to curry favor with Chen Ziang.

    When the guardian envoy asked Chen Ziang where they were going, Chen Ziang and the others always said that they had sent them away for a secret mission, so that the guardian envoy did not dare to ask more questions.

    "This Tie family is indeed a big family, with strict military discipline and no crimes in autumn. It is really a blessing for me in Pingtou Town."

    The guardian of Pingtou Town led the gentry to watch Chen Ziang and the others disappear from sight, and then he was deeply moved and turned back.

    But what the town envoy of Pingtou Town didn't know was that what they sent away was not some Tie family troops, but the so-called "bandits."

    Because they got rid of the pursuers, they were about to enter the river province again, so Chen Ziang and the others also relaxed a lot.

    At noon, Chen Ziang and the others arrived at an unnamed mountain village at the foot of Pingtou Mountain. After passing through the canyon behind the village, they could enter the province in the middle of the river.

    Originally there was another official road, but their scouts reported that there were heavy troops stationed there, so they had to take the trail here instead.

    Pingtou Mountain is just a remnant of the Taikoo Mountain Range. The ancient trees in the mountain are towering, and the wolf vines are entangled, making it look deep and cool.

    "Da da! Da da!"

    When Chen Ziang and the others could see the small mountain village ahead, suddenly several scouts from the front galloped towards them.

    "General, there is a situation!"

    The scout team rode their horses to Chen Ziang's feet, and then hurriedly reined in the horses, and said solemnly.

    "What's going on?" Chen Ziang asked.

    "All the people in the village were slaughtered, and the bodies of the brothers of our fifth scout team were hung on the big tree at the entrance of the village." The scout team reported with a sullen face.

    After hearing this, Chen Ziang's complexion also sank, and he also felt that something was wrong.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
