    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 691

    "The thieves just wiped out all the soldiers and horses of the major families. They are now in high spirits, and they will definitely relax their vigilance. This is our opportunity."

    Wu Feng, the young master of the Wu family, was naturally unwilling to leave in such a disheveled manner, so he decided to give it a go.

    "But we only have more than 2,000 people, so we are no match for the bandit army." The family members said worriedly.

    "It's not an opponent to fight them head-on, but if you attack them at night, you still have a chance of winning."

    "As long as we kill the bandit chieftain Chen Zi'ang, the bandit army in the Jiangnan Province will be leaderless. As long as they fight among themselves, General Zhennan will be able to take back the Jiangnan Province with ease."

    "The major families in Jiangnan Province have been almost wiped out now, and our Wu family will become the only big family by then."

    Thinking that his Wu family was about to rise from the bones of countless families and become the largest family, Wu Feng's eyes shone with excitement.

    Wu Feng, the young master, also did what he said, and immediately ordered people to inquire about Chen Ziang's movements, and at the same time studied the map to prepare for the attack.

    Chen Ziang naturally knew that although they had won consecutive victories, there were still fish that slipped through the net.

    It's just that compared to attacking himself so blatantly now, those remnants may be too late to avoid now.

    For those fish that slipped through the net, it is only necessary for the soldiers and horses of the Department of Public Security stationed in various places to strengthen the suppression, and it is not necessary for him, a general, to take command in person.

    After Chen Ziang and the others rested for a day, the troops of the Security Department were immediately dispatched to various prefectures and counties.

    ?The security forces dispatched to the prefectures and counties are not many, because if thousands of people are divided, the strength of each prefecture and county will not be many, so they have to recruit new soldiers locally to expand their strength.

    At the same time, they also have to shoulder the task of confiscating the family property of those wealthy families and eliminating those who slipped through the net.

    Fortunately, Chen Zi'ang and the others have gone through these several large-scale attacks, and now the large-scale armed forces in the Jiangnan province have been disintegrated and wiped out.

    For those small groups of enemies, relying on the strength of the Department of Public Security, the situation can still be stabilized.

    Because most of the troops were dispatched to various counties to take over the defense vacancy left by the regular troops, the escort troops accompanying Chen Ziang to the provincial capital were weakened a lot.

    However, Chen Ziang and the others didn't care about it, because the intelligence showed that there were no large-scale enemies around, and if there were any, it was only a small group of dozens of enemies, which they could deal with.

    But it was precisely because of Chen Ziang's underestimation of the enemy that they almost capsized in the gutter.

    Because the 2,000 people led by Wu Feng, the young master of the Wu family, had been hiding in the dark, their targets were small, so the intelligence department did not find them.

    When Chen Ziang and the others were camping overnight at a place only one day away from the provincial capital, more than two thousand people led by Wu Feng, the young master of the Wu family, surrounded them silently.

    Because it is very close to the provincial capital, it is inevitable that the guards on duty at night will relax their vigilance.

    "Where are the people on guard?"

    When the night patrol arrived at the entrance of the village where they camped, they found that several sentries at the entrance of the village were missing, and realized that something was wrong.

    "They shouldn't be lazy and hide somewhere in the leeward to sleep?"

    A brother from the Qinghe Army held up a torch to illuminate the darkness, and joked with a smile.

    "It's becoming more and more outrageous for them to be lazy and sleep when they are on guard." A brother echoed.

    "Ready to fight!"

    The ten generals at the head of the patrol looked around, and suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood, and immediately drew out the sabers around their waists, warning loudly.

    Although the other brothers didn't know what happened, they subconsciously drew their sabers.

    "Whizzing!"

    In the darkness, there was the sound of arrows piercing through the air, and ten people swung their knives to block a few of them, but there was a miserable cry behind them, and several brothers fell to the ground with arrows.

    "Return to the village!"

    The ten generals kept waving their swords to block the arrows, and roared loudly.

    A brother of the Qinghe army also hurriedly blew the copper whistle hanging around his neck, and the shrill sound of the copper whistle alarmed the Qinghe army in the village.

    The arrows were too dense, and the ten-man patrol did not return to the village in the end, and was shot into hedgehogs, but they also successfully warned.

    ?"kill!"

    Wu Feng and the others planned to sneak into the village quietly, but now that they were exposed, they stopped hiding their tracks and led their troops to launch a fierce attack on the village.

    Countless gangsters with sharp knives poured into the village like a tide, and many Qinghe army brothers who had just rushed out of the house with sabers were quickly chopped to the ground by random knives.

    "What's going on outside?"

    Chen Ziang was also awakened by the shouts outside, and shouted outside while quickly putting on his armor.

    "General, a large number of bandits have surrounded the village!"

    Du Jian, captain of the personal guard, pushed away the room with a lantern in his hand, and reported to Chen Ziang with an ugly expression.

    "Why didn't the scout rangers have an early warning?"

    Chen Ziang frowned when he heard the shouts of killing already in the village.

    "They probably came here by taking advantage of a loophole."

    Du Jian didn't know why the scout rangers on the periphery didn't have an early warning, so he could only say his own guess.

    "General, the bandits are powerful, we will cover you to break out from behind the village!"

    ? Yue Shan, Chief of Public Security of Jiangnan Province, also brought a team of heavily armed Qinghe Army brothers to the small courtyard where Chen Ziang lived, and suggested that Chen Ziang break out of the encirclement immediately.

    "It's dark outside, and I don't know how many bandits there are. I order the brothers to beat out the bandits who invaded the village. We will hold on until dawn and then see the situation."

    Chen Ziang didn't dare to leave the village hastily, because they were not familiar with the surrounding situation, and the enemy had already approached them, so it was hard to guarantee that they would not have a backhand.

    "Brothers, follow me!"

    After hearing what Chen Ziang said, Yue Shan also felt that it made sense, and immediately greeted him, leading the Qinghe Army brothers towards the place where the fighting was fierce.

    Du Jian, the captain of the personal guard, led more than a hundred Qinghe army brothers to guard the courtyard where they lived and the surrounding commanding heights, protecting Chen Ziang.

    A large group of bandits swarmed in, and under the light of the fire, they looked extremely ferocious.

    Yue Shan, the chief of public security who was born in the army, also showed no fear, and led the Qinghe army brothers to fight fiercely with them in the village.

    "Young master, the thief chief did not break through."

    On a high hill outside the village, Wu Feng, the young master of the Wu family, was condescendingly watching the burning village.

    But what surprised him was that after the surprise attack, Chen Zi'ang and the others did not break through, so that the troops who had ambushed him outside the village were useless.

    Wu Feng's original intention was to force Chen Ziang and the others out of the village, and then strangle them in the wild.

    Because compared to villages with buildings, they are more able to give full play to their strength in open fields.

    "interesting."

    Seeing that Chen Ziang and the others did not leave the village hastily, Wu Feng was a little surprised.

    "Pass down the order, all soldiers and horses will attack, and the battle must be over before dawn." Wu Feng said viciously.

    "No!"

    After all, it was only a day away from the provincial capital, so they didn't dare to delay too long.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
