    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 275

    "Send additional scouts. If there is any disturbance in the Qinghe army, report it to me immediately."

    "No!"

    Although the admiral of the Lujiang Mansion said he was going to Tianfeng Village, he was still quite afraid of the Qinghe Army, so he seemed cautious.

    Although he inquired from all sides, the Qinghe army that entered the territory of Lujiang Mansion was only 10,000 to 20,000 troops, and now they are fighting bloody battles with the bandits in Tianfeng Village, and have suffered certain losses, but he still dare not be careless.

    More than 7,000 soldiers and horses led by the admiral of the Lujiang Mansion marched along the official road, and then turned into the country road.

    This road is very familiar to the admiral of Lujiang Mansion, because he used to take this road when he suppressed bandits.

    Looking through the window of the carriage, looking at the barren farmlands on both sides of the road, the dry ponds and the dead villages, the admiral of Lujiang Mansion was also filled with emotion.

    Although he took a lot of benefits from the bandits in Tianfengzhai, he turned a blind eye to what Tianfengzhai did.

    But seeing the bandits in Tianfeng Village ruining the area like this, he was still angry.

    You must know that this area was a prosperous place at the beginning, but now it is empty and barren. After walking so far, I can't even see a ghost.

    However, thinking of the mountains of gold and silver treasures piled up in his treasury, the admiral of Lujiang Mansion smiled again. As long as he made a lot of money, it didn't seem to matter even if this area became a barren wilderness.

    This time I led the army out of the city to reap the benefits, and then defeated the Qinghe army, and then wiped out the bandits in Tianfengzhai.

    Relying on these two great achievements, he might be able to go directly to Tianting, and the governor of Luyang Province might also be able to sit for a while.

    Thinking that he could become the majestic governor of Luyang Province, the admiral of Lujiang Mansion couldn't help laughing, which made the grooms who drove the carriage feel baffled.

    "Lord Admiral, Huangniba Village is just ahead."

    When the admiral of Lujiang Mansion was dreaming his dream in the bumpy carriage, an officer on horseback galloped over from the front and reported loudly.

    "We will camp in Huangniba Village tonight."

    Their army moved slowly. If they continued walking, they could only sleep in the wilderness at night, so the admiral decided to camp in the village ahead.

    "No!"

    After the officer responded, he immediately applauded and ran towards the back of the team.

    "The admiral has an order to camp in the village ahead!"

    "The admiral has an order to camp in the village ahead!"

    The sound spread far away, and the soldiers of the marching garrison battalion and the private soldiers of those powerful and powerful families all cheered.

    Although their marching speed was as slow as a snail, for these garrison soldiers who stayed in the city all year round and had a good life, they felt exhausted.

    Now hearing that they will be able to camp in the village in front of them soon, these soldiers are naturally happy.

    The mighty team soon arrived at Huangniba Village, which was just a small village with only a few Bai families.

    Seeing so many troops coming, the few remaining families had already fled and went out to avoid the army.

    The admiral of the Lujiang Mansion and some tyrants who personally led the army and followed them to make military achievements all came to live in the village.

    The admiral lived in the largest and brightest courtyard in the village, while the officers and powerful men under him divided up the rest.

    The big shots still have shelter from the wind and rain, but ordinary soldiers are not treated so well.

    They found a place to camp outside the village by themselves, unloaded food, fruits, vegetables and meat from the military carriages, and then started cooking with pots and fires.

    Because in this army there are not only 3,000 soldiers from the garrison battalion of Lujiang Mansion, but also more than a dozen private soldiers gathered together by powerful people.

    These tyrannical private soldiers also brought their own things, some of them stewed meat in a big pot, some of them ate dry food, and some roasted whole sheep.

    Rather than saying that they are a team that goes out to fight, they are more like a team that travels around.

    "I heard that there was a bloody battle between the Qinghe Army and the bandits in Tianfengzhai. The corpses were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river. So don't be afraid. We are just going to clean up the battlefield. We will fight a small battle at most."

    "You all work hard for me. When the time comes to get promoted and make a fortune, you will be indispensable."

    ? In the courtyard where you moved in, the houseThe governor of the government called together senior military officers and powerful people, held a brief meeting, and drew a big cake for them.

    "Thank you, Admiral, thank you, Admiral, we will definitely fight the enemy bravely, and we will not embarrass you!"

    Having received the promise of the admiral, these officers and tyrants also smiled happily, and the fear of the Qinghe army in their hearts disappeared without a trace.

    "Admiral, I think we should be more cautious, after all, the Qinghe army has a bad reputation"

    Although most people did not take the Qinghe Army seriously, there were still some officers who were always worried.

    ? Chen Ziang and his troops played around in the imperial capital of the capital of Gyeonggi Province, and they won consecutive battles, which can be said to have stole the limelight.

    For the sake of face, the imperial court talked about how heroic the court's King Qin troops were in the subsequent propaganda.

    However, it was not easy for Chen Ziang to escape from the hundreds of thousands of King Qin's army, so some officers felt that they should not underestimate the enemy.

    "Don't build up other people's ambitions and destroy our own prestige."

    "The Qinghe Army escaped from the Gyeonggi Province. It was just a group of remnants and defeated generals. As far as I know, it is only a mere 10,000 to 20,000 people."

    "Besides, the strength of Tianfeng Village is not much larger than theirs. They have been fighting with Tianfeng Village for so long, and they are also exhausted. Let's deal with them as easily as crushing ants."

    "But"

    "There is nothing but, pass on the order, let the soldiers eat and drink enough, sleep well, and then kill the enemy and make meritorious service on the battlefield."

    The officer wanted to say something more, but when he saw the admiral of the Lujiang Mansion's complexion, his colleague tugged at his sleeve, so he had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his mouth.

    When the troops led by the admiral of the Lujiang Mansion set up camp in Huangniba Village, on the trail to their northwest, a Qinghe Army troop with a mixture of infantry and cavalry was rushing towards them.

    Leading this Qinghe Army is Li Lang, commander of the Qinghe Army's First Banner Regiment, and their task is to destroy the imperial army in Lujiang Mansion.

    In addition to the infantry units of the two banner battalions, the troops led by Li Lang also had more than a thousand cavalry temporarily drawn from the Ninth Banner Regiment.

    If the imperial army of the Lujiang Mansion were to defend the city, it would take a little more effort to destroy them with their strength, and the battle damage might not be small.

    But now the dynasty army in Lujiang Mansion has actually left the city. Li Lang and the others are good at field battles, so they have enough confidence to eat up the dynasty army in Lujiang Mansion in one go.

    "Report¡ª¡ª"

    When Li Lang and the others were marching in a hurry, a cloud of smoke rose in the distance, and two scouts galloped towards them.

    Soon, two scouts Qingqi galloped to Li Lang, and reined in the sweating horses.

    "Chief Banner, the Dynasty Army has already set up camp in Huangniba Village, twenty miles away." A panting scout cavalry stepped forward.

    "Map."

    A staff member accompanying the army hurriedly took out the surrounding map recently drawn by the scouts from the pocket sewn with sheepskin.

    Although these temporary maps were rather crude, Li Lang quickly found the approximate location of the Dynasty army's camp on the map.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
