"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 216
Surrounded by a group of soldiers, Chen Ziang approached the entrance of the village, and he could smell a strong smell of blood from a distance.
They looked from a distance, on the big tree at the entrance of the village, they had the body of a ten-man scout hanging from the tree by ropes, already dead.
The scouts of their Qinghe army are all carefully selected elite veterans, and their combat effectiveness is enough to fight five.
However, the ten scouts were killed quietly, and none of them fled back. Chen Ziang realized that their enemy was not simple.
"Put down the remains of the brothers so that they can be buried alive."
"No!"
Li Changqing, the chief of the personal army, waved his hand, and a group of soldiers galloped over.
Chen Zi'ang walked into the village in person again, and found corpses strewn all over the village, with no survivors.
"It should not exceed a day."
Seeing the blood that had solidified into dark red, a hundred scouts judged.
"Can you guess who it is?" Chen Ziang asked.
The hundred scout generals frowned and said, "It shouldn't be a bandit. Judging from the wound, it should be a standard weapon."
When Chen Ziang was still in the village, some of the scouts he sent out had hurried back.
"General, there is an army on Pingtou Mountain." The scout said hurriedly.
Hearing that there was an army on their way forward, Chen Zi'ang's face turned ugly. The death of the village and their scouts should be caused by this army.
"Can you see the flag clearly?"
"It seems to be the Imperial Guard."
"Hiss!"
As soon as the scout soldier said these words, everyone gasped.
Chen Ziang's complexion changed slightly. Could it be that their whereabouts have been exposed long ago, so that the imperial guards are here waiting for them.
"Scouts to detect the enemy situation in the surrounding twenty miles!"
"No!"
After Chen Ziang gave an order, he got on his horse and left the village quickly.
After a while, Chen Zi'ang personally led the team to the foot of Pingtou Mountain to investigate the enemy's situation, wanting to see what troops were blocking their way.
When he arrived at Taniguchi, he looked into the lush woods, and he could faintly see the flag of the Imperial Guard.
"Ang woo¡ª¡ª"
Soon, there was a long sound of horns in the woods, and groups of heavily armed Imperial Guard soldiers rushed out of the woods.
"It seems to be the army of the fourth prince of the dynasty."
After seeing Shuai Qi, Zhou Ba's complexion also changed, because they had fought against the Fourth Prince in Qinghe Province, and more than once.
The imperial guards and black cavalry troops under the command of the fourth prince have improved their combat effectiveness after repeated fierce battles, and they are not comparable to those trash imperial troops in the capital.
Chen Ziang never imagined that they had deceived everyone, and someone would have seen through his golden cicada's plan to get rid of the shell.
Surrounded by more than a dozen young generals, the fourth prince also rode out slowly, and the arrayed imperial guards all made way for a passage.
Seeing the young man in armor and flying python battle robe, Chen Ziang knew without guessing that this must be his opponent, the Fourth Prince.
"The other side is Chen Ziang, the chief thief?"
Surrounded by everyone, the fourth prince stood in front of the army formation and broke the silence.
Chen Ziang said: "I, Chen Ziang, don't change my name when I go, I don't know what to teach me?"
After the fourth prince confirmed that the other party was Chen Ziang, he also looked up and down, and when he saw the tough Chen Ziang, he also showed approval.
"You didn't expect me to be here waiting for you." The fourth prince was a little proud.
"I really didn't think of it, but do you think you can stop me with your shrimp soldiers and crab generals?"
"No, no, no, I don't want to stop you, but I just need to hold you back. Now that hundreds of thousands of troops are coming from all directions, do you think you can still run?"
After hearing this, Chen Zi'ang's face also sank. He didn't expect that he had just escaped from the tiger's mouth and entered the wolf's den again.
The fourth prince immediately changed the subject and said: "But I have always cherished talents. As long as you change your past and join me, I might as well spare your life. How about it? Think about it?"
The Fourth Prince is also an ambitious person. If he wants to seize the throne, he needs powerfulGo-getters and troops.
Chen Ziang is brave and good at fighting. Although he is now a rebel army, he still wants to bring him under his command and become his help. After all, there are not many generals who can fight like this.
"Do you think wolves bow their heads like dogs?" Chen Ziang sneered.
"Chen, don't toast and refuse to eat fine wine, you are surrounded now, you can't escape, you have to think clearly!"
Seeing the fourth prince's face darken, a general next to him suddenly became furious.
"I have an idea here, and I want you to consider it."
As Chen Ziang said, he whispered a few words to Li Changqing behind him, and Li Changqing rode away immediately.
Soon, the fat Tulip Family Marquis who was trapped like a rice dumpling was brought up.
"Get out of the way, and I'll let him go, otherwise, I'll kill him with a knife."
Chen Ziang pointed at the fat Lord of the Tulip family, threatening the fourth prince.
Chen Ziang has already figured it out. This Lord Hou is the uncle of the Crown Princess, that is, the prince's uncle. He has a high status, so he is pushed out as a shield.
"Fourth Highness, save me, save me"
Ever since he was captured, the Marquis has been trembling with fear, fearing that Chen Ziang would kill him with a knife.
Fortunately, Chen Zi'ang didn't kill him. Instead, he went from place to place, tied to his horse when marching and fighting, and sent someone to watch him, so that there was no chance for him to escape.
Chen Ziang kept him alive, mainly thinking about his identity. If he was in danger, he might be able to scare people.
However, it has never come in handy. Now that the fourth prince blocked his way, he can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor, wanting to see the effect.
Seeing Chen Ziang pushing the prince's uncle out, the fourth prince couldn't help but frowned.
Save it, and Chen Ziang will be let go. Once the tiger is released, the consequences will be disastrous.
But if you don't save him, this Marquis will lose his life. He is not afraid of offending the prince, but he is a little jealous of the Tulip family.
After struggling for a while, the fourth prince finally decided to give up the Marquis, because he was really unwilling to let Chen Ziang go.
"Don't talk about a mere lord, even if a lord is here, I can't let you go." The fourth prince said coldly.
After hearing what the fourth prince said, the obese Lord Hou felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He did not expect the fourth prince to be so heartless.
"Fourth Highness, I am the uncle of His Highness the Crown Prince, you can't just ignore death."
Facing the shout of the Marquis, the Fourth Prince turned a deaf ear to it, as if he had given up on him.
Chen Ziang didn't expect that the other party would be so heartless that he wouldn't even give the crown prince any face.
But if Chen Ziang didn't know, the Fourth Prince and the Crown Prince would already be dirty, so the value of the Marquis would not be that great.
If the crown prince was in front of him, the crown prince might let Chen Ziang and the others live for the sake of the Marquis. Unfortunately, what they were facing was the fourth prince.
"You heard me clearly, it's not my fault, it's that people don't want to save you, they want you to die."
Seeing Master Hou who was crying bitterly, Chen Ziang also felt that he was quite pitiful, that he was in such a miserable situation.
The Marquis of the Tulip family saw the fourth prince refusing to save him, while in despair, he also yelled at the fourth prince, making the fourth prince's complexion ugly.
The negotiation broke down, and Chen Ziang didn't have the time to waste words with the fourth prince here, so he quickly retreated and summoned his generals to discuss countermeasures. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
