    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 766

    As night fell, the distraught Qinghe army finally left the battlefield, and the noisy battlefield gradually quieted down.

    Geng Biao, the commander of the Banner Battalion, wanted to join forces with the Second Banner Battalion to defeat the retreating southern army and claim the military exploits alone.

    However, man is not as good as heaven. He underestimated the strength of the Southern Army and overestimated their strength.

    If it wasn't for the nightfall, they might still be stuck on the battlefield and unable to get out.

    The soldiers of the Qinghe Army, ragged and bloodstained, were able to stop to catch their breath after they escaped the Southern Army's pursuit.

    Geng Biao, the flag battalion commander, was also very annoyed when he saw that the previously high-spirited team was in such a mess after such a fight in the afternoon.

    "Master Banner Battalion Commander, the casualties have been counted."

    Geng Biao was leaning against a big tree with his bloodstained face panting heavily, and an officer with a mask on his face came up to him.

    "How many casualties?"

    "There are only two thousand brothers left in our No. 1 Banner Battalion, and most of them are injured."

    "There are more than 1,500 people left in the Second Banner Battalion."

    The officer glanced at the banner battalion commander Geng Biao, who also had a broken armor, and his voice was low.

    "The two Chiefs of Staff were killed in battle."

    "Damn it!"

    After hearing this, Geng Biao couldn't help but punched the tree trunk, feeling quite complicated.

    He originally wanted to rely on this battle to make meritorious deeds, but he never thought that he would lose in a complete mess.

    "Master Banner Commander, Master Liu is dead."

    Just when Geng Biao, the commander of the Banner Battalion, was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, a guard trotted over in a hurry.

    Geng Biao put away his emotions and strode towards the Second Banner Battalion.

    At this moment, the leather armor of the Second Banner Battalion Commander had been taken off, revealing a huge wound on his chest, bloody and bloody.

    "brother."

    Geng Biao strode up to the battalion commander of the Second Banner who was lying there dying, holding his hand tightly, and there was a gloomy atmosphere in the air.

    "I, I can't do it anymore, I have hurt my brothers"

    The Second Banner Battalion Commander's lips twitched, with regret on his face, and his breath became weaker and weaker.

    "Brother, don't blame you, blame me, blame me."

    Geng Biao looked at the Second Banner Battalion Commander who was still alive and kicking in the morning, but now he was on the verge of death, and his face was full of sadness.

    "me"

    The battalion commander of the second banner died before he finished speaking, and he died with regret. When the surrounding officers saw the dead battalion commander, they all had tears in their eyes, and some couldn't help sobbing.

    "I'm going to seek revenge from the Confederate Army!"

    An officer clanged out his saber, and was about to stride away with a murderous look.

    "I am coming too!"

    "I am coming too!"

    The surrounding officers with red eyes all clamored, and there was the sound of war knives being unsheathed.

    "return!"

    Geng Biao, the commander of the First Banner Battalion, looked at these clamoring soldiers and stopped them coldly.

    "Brothers have died enough, don't go to die!"

    "But the Banner Commander can't just die in vain." Someone retorted loudly.

    "The dead cannot be resurrected, so bury the brothers who died in battle."

    Banner Battalion Commander Geng Biao looked at these soldiers filled with righteous indignation, stood up and went back to his banner camp.

    Not long after, the light of torches appeared in the distance, and soldiers from the brigade came over holding torches.

    "It's the head of the banner who is here."

    The vigilant sentry quickly saw who was coming, and the leader was Yang Zhong, the head of the banner with a livid face.

    Geng Biao, the commander of the First Banner Battalion, took a deep breath. He knew that it was a blessing or a disaster, and he couldn't avoid the disaster, so he strode forward to meet him.

    Yang Zhong, the head of the Banner, did not know what happened on the battlefield until dusk. He had just led the Third Banner to return to Fengshui County.

    He did not expect that the first and second banner battalions would be so bold that they would dare to engage in a decisive battle with the southern army without authorization.

    When Yang Zhong walked halfway, he learned that Geng Biao and the others had lost the battle. At this moment, seeing the blood-stained soldiers around them with bewildered expressions, his heart became angry.

    "Master Banner Leader, I"

    Geng Biao was also displeased when he saw Yang Zhong, the leader of the banner with a livid face.I don't know how to explain.

    He had previously looked down upon Yang Zhong, the head of the banner who had suddenly appeared, so he did things in a positive way.

    But Yang Zhong, the head of the banner, was unwilling to argue with him, but this time Geng Biao's behavior completely angered Yang Zhong, the head of the banner.

    "You bastard!"

    Before Geng Biao finished speaking, the angry Yang Zhong kicked Geng Biao to the ground.

    "You return my brother who died in battle!"

    Yang Zhong raised his foot and kicked Geng Biao who was lying on the ground, full of anger, Geng Biao held his head and let Yang Zhong vent his anger.

    Zheng Song, the chief of staff, stood aside and couldn't help but sigh when he saw Geng Biao howling after being beaten.

    Yang Zhong was so used to these arrogant soldiers that they made such a big mistake.

    They only need to harass the retreating troops of the Southern Army according to the original plan. It only takes a few days to exhaust the energy and physical strength of the Southern Army.

    Now the Southern Army does not have much food and grass, as long as they stick to the original plan, victory will belong to them.

    However, Geng Biao and the others recklessly fought a decisive battle with the southern army, and suffered such a big defeat, which really made Zheng Song, the chief of staff, quite angry.

    "Master Banner Head, calm down."

    After Zheng Song saw Geng Biao's nose and face swollen from being beaten by Yang Zhong, he grumbled at the left and right guards and pulled Yang Zhong away.

    Yang Zhong, who was out of breath, was pulled away, and Geng Biao curled up on the ground, bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and he was severely beaten.

    "Where's the battalion commander of the Second Banner?!"

    Yang Zhong, who was still angry, looked around and asked in a cold voice.

    "Our banner battalion commander is dead." A soldier replied in a low voice.

    Yang Zhong was also taken aback, he didn't expect the commander of the Second Banner Battalion to die in battle, looking at Geng Biao who was being helped up, his face was full of anger.

    "Down with his knife, he will be dealt with by military law!"

    Yang Zhong looked at Geng Biao, who was covered in scars, and hated that iron could not be made into steel.

    Although Yang Zhong didn't have much prestige in the 22nd Banner Regiment, he was still the head of the Banner Regiment anyway.

    Now that the two banner battalion commanders acted without authorization and caused them a disastrous defeat, how could he not be angry in his heart.

    Their Twenty-Second Banner Regiment suffered such a disastrous defeat when it was first formed, so he couldn't explain it to Chen Ziang.

    "Set up camp on the spot, and you tell the Third Banner Camp to bring some food and drink over."

    Seeing those soldiers who fled back covered in scars, Yang Zhong was also in a bad mood.

    The two banner battalions were full of 10,000 brothers, and now only 3,000 people survived. It can be said that this is the worst failure since the formation of their banner regiment.

    This kind of failure could have been avoided originally, but it was caused by the people below not obeying the command and acting without authorization.

    "I suggest rescinding Geng Biao's post!"

    The army suffered such a big loss, which made Yang Zhong, the head of the banner, very angry. No matter what, he had to give an explanation to his superiors.

    The battalion commander of the second banner has died, so the responsibility can only be borne by Geng Biao, the battalion commander of the first banner.

    Zheng Song, chief of staff, also nodded, agreeing with the decision of Yang Zhong, the head of the banner, because there must be an explanation for this matter.

    "Although the mistakes in this battle were caused by their disobedience to the command, the responsibility lies with me. I am not strict with my orders. You write an apology and I will sign it later." Yang Zhong sighed.

    "Master Banner, I can't blame you for this matter." Zheng Song didn't expect that Yang Zhong would be held responsible.

    "Let's write it, who made me the head of the banner."

    "The First and Second Banner Battalions are temporarily cancelled, and the remaining soldiers are merged into the troops directly under the Banner Regiment."

    Geng Biao, the battalion commander of the first banner, was detained, and the battalion commander of the second banner was killed. Yang Zhong had to merge the remaining troops into the troops directly under the banner regiment.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
