"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 687
The cavalry units of the Qinghe Army attacked everywhere, and the assembled armed forces of the rich and powerful families suffered a devastating blow.
In the past, they dispersed their actions and frequently attacked the Qinghe army's cities, checkpoints, and patrols everywhere, leaving the Qinghe army helpless.
Now the Qinghe army is pretending to transfer to the west, deliberately revealing a weakness, and the armed forces of the rich and powerful families who are about to move are assembled, and then they are besieged by the Qinghe army.
In this attack on the armed forces of wealthy families, in addition to the precise intelligence of the intelligence department of the Public Security Department of Jiangnan Province, the maneuverability of the cavalry of the Qinghe Army also played a key role.
Often the cavalry units were still fighting in other areas the day before, and arrived at them the day after.
Moreover, the cavalry unit performed well in both mobile support and assault operations, and gained a lot in a series of battles.
This action of the Qinghe Army can be said to have dealt a heavy blow to the wealthy and powerful families in the Jiangnan Province.
?Because almost none of the wealthy and powerful families in each prefecture were spared, and they all encountered the liquidation of the Qinghe Army.
?They were previously positive and negative, welcoming the Qinghe Army on the surface, but secretly supporting money and food, and even personally commanding armed attacks on the Qinghe Army.
This time, the Qinghe army pulled out the carrots and brought out the mud. With the cooperation of the Jiangnan Provincial Public Security Department and solid evidence, they no longer have any scruples in arresting people.
As the Qinghe Army almost uprooted the major families, there was a sudden panic in Jiangnan Province.
"Now the armed forces of more than 20 large families in Jiangnan Province have been wiped out by us. We have killed more than 30,000 people this time and captured nearly 40,000."
The Thirteenth Banner Regiment of the Cavalry quickly completed the suppression work, and then the head of the Banner Lei Ming reported to Chen Ziang.
Hearing that there are so many enemies hiding in the shadows, Chen Ziang was stunned.
It's no wonder that the situation in the Jiangnan province had been tense before, so that the soldiers garrisoned in various places did not dare to go out alone.
Because there are too many enemies in Yingzang, and this is just the armed forces, not including those eyeliners.
"After this cleanup, Jiangnan province should be quiet for a few days."
? As the commander of this clean-up operation, Lei Ming also felt a lot more relaxed, because they have been under a lot of pressure these days.
Since they occupied the Jiangnan province, they have been fighting everywhere, but they lack effective intelligence support and the effect is not great.
Now such a concentrated attack on the enemy, so that they don't have to go all over the mountains to find the enemy, they only need to surround them according to the address, which can be said to be quite easy and rewarding.
"Although we have wiped out a large number of bandits, the remnants hidden in towns and villages should not be underestimated. We should not be careless."
The Chief of Security, Yue Shan, is not as optimistic as Lei Ming, because he knows that the enemies on the surface are easy to deal with, but it is not easy to dig out the enemies in the dark.
Because after this incident, the enemies in the dark must have hidden deeper and acted more cautiously.
"It's just that they hate us so much now, we can implement the second phase of the plan." Yue Shan smiled and looked at Chen Ziang.
Chen Ziang also showed a wry smile on his face, this Yue Shan still wanted to use himself as a bait.
Their original plan was to let Chen Ziang himself act as a bait to lure the enemy out and annihilate them.
But before Chen Ziang came out, they followed the clues and wiped out most of the enemies in the dark.
However, there are still many remnants of the enemy in the dark, and the general Chen Zi'ang is still needed to go out in person.
"Okay, I'll use my body as bait to lure out those remnants."
Chen Ziang also wanted to stabilize the situation in Jiangnan Province as soon as possible, and then deal with the Southern Army with all his strength, because in the western part of the province, their 12th Banner Regiment had already fought against the Southern Army.
Relying on the 20,000 men of the Twelfth Banner Regiment alone cannot stop the more than 200,000 troops of the Southern Army. The difference in strength between the two sides is too great.
Chen Ziang and the others soon released the news that Chen Ziang would personally escort the captured heads of the major families to the provincial capital.
Previously, Chen Ziang and the others released the news that Chen Ziang would personally go to the provincial capital to sit in charge.
Now they have raised the stakes to escort those capturedThe head of the family went to the provincial capital together.
After Chen Ziang and the others spread the news, they did not resort to deceit, but went to the provincial capital under the escort of more than 2,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry.
"The bandit chief left Huaiyang Mansion and is going to the provincial capital."
"The owner and the others are also on the way."
"The escort force of the bandit army consists of about 2,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry."
As soon as Chen Ziang and the others left Huaiyang Fucheng, the news spread through various channels.
Many of the news were even spread from those who were bribed within the Qinghe Army.
Although Chen Ziang got the list, he has not taken any action, just wanting them to play some leftover heat and spread some news.
"Concentrate our remaining manpower to save the Patriarch!"
"This time, we must kill the bandit chief and avenge the dead clansmen!"
"Keep an eye on them, and report as soon as there is news!"
After the survivors of the major families got the news from inside, they all started clamoring one after another.
"Young master, what shall we do?"
The survivors of the major families all took action one after another, and Wu Feng, the young master of the Wu family who was hiding in the dark, also got the news.
"Is the news reliable?"
Wu Feng has become much more cautious now, because he found that his opponent is not a scumbag, and if he is a little careless, he may be involved in it.
"The news is absolutely reliable. It came from a bandit army general whom we bought, and this general is also on the guard."
"How did the other families react?"
"I heard that they are going to take action on the road from Huaiyang Mansion to the provincial capital. While saving people, they will kill the thief chieftain Chen Zi'ang."
"I suspect it's a trap."
After Wu Feng bowed his head and pondered for a while, he expressed his guess.
"trap?"
"Then Chen Ziang has always been cunning and cunning. We were too careless to suffer a serious injury. If we don't learn from our mistakes, we may have to turn around again. Then we may never have a chance to make a comeback." Wu Feng said.
Wu Feng continued to analyze: "It is reasonable to say that Jiangnan Province is not peaceful now, and where the bandit chiefs are going should be strictly kept secret, but now many people know it, which is too unusual."
"I even suspect that they deliberately released the news before to expose us, but now they are just repeating the old trick."
"But the Patriarch is in their hands. We can only have a chance on the road. Otherwise, once we arrive in the city, it will be very difficult. Even if it is a trap, we have to try it."
"No, let other families try it, let's wait and see what happens, and don't move for now."
"Aren't you going to save the Patriarch and the others?"
"Do you know what is praying mantis catching cicada and oriole behind?"
"Young master, what do you mean" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
