    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 657

    ? Yunshan Province, Pingyong Mansion, Fucheng.

    The black battle flag swept across, and a large number of yellow, emaciated, and ragged Qinghe troops were swarming into the city along the corridors of the city gate.

    "Run away, the bandits are coming."

    "Run!"

    The streets of Pingyong Mansion were in chaos. Amidst the screams of terror, the defeated soldiers guarding the city fled abruptly among the fleeing civilians.

    "Kill!"

    The Qinghe army who invaded the city attacked and killed along the streets like wild beasts with green eyes.

    Seeing those Qinghe army soldiers in ragged clothes and holding sharp knives, the people who were crowded in the streets and fleeing for their lives flew away like frightened birds.

    Carts full of wooden boxes, parcels, clothes, salutes carried on poles and other items were scattered all over the street, a mess.

    Facing the ferocious Qinghe army, the merchants, common people and officials in Pingyong Prefecture were all terrified.

    These Qinghe troops have been blocked in the mountains by the imperial army for so long, almost living a life of bare hair and blood.

    They had long held a wave of resentment in their hearts, and now they suddenly rushed out of the mountain, as if they were unshackled, and the fierceness in their bones broke out.

    Seeing the parcels of goods and carriages scattered all over the ground, the Qinghe army with weapons took them for themselves one after another.

    Some soldiers of the Qinghe Army broke into the shops on both sides of the street and the houses, and began to rummage through boxes and chests in search of goods.

    Seeing these Qinghe army soldiers who broke into their homes full of murderous looks, many people who were hiding at home were also terrified.

    The common people huddled around the house, watching their valuables such as food and belongings being swept away.

    The main force of the Qinghe army led by Chen Ru suffered heavy losses in the battle with the imperial army, and was blocked in the mountains for so long.

    They rushed out of the mountain now, looting almost retaliatoryly, and they would kill anyone who resisted without mercy. For a while, the city was full of flames, and countless soldiers and civilians fell under the sharp swords.

    The merchants in Pingyong Mansion and the squires who hadn't had time to escape became the key looting targets of the Qinghe Army.

    These merchants and squires all raised some servants, and they tried to rely on the high walled compound to resist.

    However, this move undoubtedly angered the Qinghe army who invaded the city. Facing the siege of the Qinghe army, one after another high-walled courtyards were breached, followed by a massacre.

    Seeing the howls and screams intertwined in the city, the prosperous city of Pingyongfu trembled under the slaughter of the Qinghe Army.

    The soldiers under his command were massacring and looting wantonly. The commander of the Fifth Army of the Qinghe Army, General Luo Dagang, Long Xiang, not only did not stop him, but turned a blind eye to deliberately condoning the soldiers to burn, kill, and loot.

    "General, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to burn, kill and loot like this?"

    Seeing groups of soldiers burning, killing and looting civilians in the city, some staff members of the Fifth Army raised some protests to Luo Dagang.

    "The brothers are suffocated in the mountains, let them have fun."

    They ate bran swallowed vegetables in the mountains, and they almost ate the last meal without the next meal, and they had already had enough.

    So Luo Dagang, General Long Xiang, felt that there was nothing wrong with their plundering now.

    "But the commander-in-chief?"

    The staff of the Fifth Army was worried that the commander-in-chief Chen Ru would blame Luo Dagang and the others for this, so they also looked worried.

    "Hmph, he brought us to the mountains and nearly starved to death. Now, brothers, what's the point of looting something? It's okay if we don't want to loot. Let him distribute it to the brothers. Can he send it out?" Luo Dagang couldn't help it.  He snorted coldly.

    Although Chen Ru inherited the position of the commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army, Luo Dagang, the general of Longxiang, was from another system.

    It's just that Luo Da had to recognize Chen Ru as the commander-in-chief just now when he faced the encirclement and suppression of the imperial army and Chen Ru had heavy troops in his hands.

    Chen Ru also reciprocated, and appointed him as the commander of the Fifth Army, General Long Xiang.

    It's just that this time Chen Ru led them to the south, and lost successively in the battle against the imperial court's encirclement and suppression of soldiers and horses.

    So much so that they were blocked in the mountains and almost wiped out, so the prestige of Chen Ru, the general, was not as good as before.

    Luo Dagang, the general of Longxiang, was not originally from Chen Ru's lineage, and now he respects this general on the surface, but in fact??Never mind it.

    Although the staff still wanted to persuade him, he was also a member of the Fifth Army after all, so he finally swallowed the words that came to his lips.

    "Pass down the order to let the brothers eat with their bellies open, and they will not return tonight if they are not drunk!"

    Luo Dagang and the others just captured Pingyong Mansion in Yunshan Province and occupied this prosperous city in the west of Yunshan Province, so Luo Dagang is also in a good mood.

    "Thank you, General!"

    The generals who surrounded Luo Dagang also became excited and applauded one after another.

    "Roar!"

    "Roar!"

    The soldiers who were looting in the distance seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. They raised their weapons and clashed one after another, echoing loudly.

    Luo Dagang and his Fifth Army captured Pingyong Mansion by surprise. The troops guarding this place had already been dispatched by the Southern Army and Yang Hao's troops, so they were able to occupy it so easily.

    Although Yunshan Province is not as rich as Dongjiang Province and Jiangnan Province in the east, it is also a southern region with abundant rainfall. Compared with the northern region, it is much richer.

    Pingyong Mansion is an important prefectural city in the province, so the grain and grass stored in the city are piled up like a mountain.

    Luo Dagang gave an order, and the soldiers who occupied Fucheng quickly slaughtered pigs and sheep, and stewed meat in a big pot.

    Countless fine wines were brought out from the shops along the street, and the Qinghe army who invaded the city finally had a hearty hot meal.

    Although they also captured two county towns before, their Qinghe army now has a large number of accompanying troops in addition to the army.

    Therefore, when the captured distribution was distributed to their fifth army, everyone could barely eat eight percent full.

    Their Fifth Army Corps was ordered to be the vanguard to capture Pingyong Mansion. Now facing the captured city, they naturally have no scruples anymore.

    The soldiers of the Fifth Army also ate bran and swallowed vegetables in the mountains. They were all yellow and emaciated and malnourished.

    Now facing the delicious food and wine, naturally you are not welcome, just open your belly to eat.

    Luo Dagang also ate meat and drank heavily with the Banner Commanders and Banner Battalion Commanders of the Fifth Army in the Pingyong Admiral's Mansion.

    The admiral of Pingyong Mansion was a fool between the rebel Yang Hao and the Southern Army, and whoever came he took refuge in whom.

    But who knew that now the Qinghe Army suddenly occupied Pingyong Mansion, so that he had no time to escape and was beheaded on the spot.

    The fifteenth concubine of the admiral of Pingyong Mansion was also directly accepted by Luo Dagang, the general of Qinghe Army Long Xiang.

    The Fifth Army Corps of the Qinghe Army really didn't get drunk that night, and fell into a crazy carnival. When the next day dawned, the streets were full of drunk soldiers sleeping on the streets.

    Even many drunken soldiers fell asleep next to the corpses of the enemy soldiers who had been beheaded the day before, a rare indulgence.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
