"Empire Hegemony" Chapter One Thousand and One
Among the green fields, more than ten thousand panting guards retreated westward in panic.
Not long after, there was the sound of horseshoes sounding like a tide behind them, and a dense crowd of cavalrymen in black swept from behind them.
Seeing the black and endless cavalry troops in the distance, Lieutenant General Wang's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
Because of the larger size of the cavalry horses, the rushing team looks even bigger.
A team of more than a thousand cavalry looks comparable to a team of thousands of infantry.
Now tens of thousands of cavalry are rushing in, giving people a strong visual impact, as if everything will be destroyed.
The Praetorian Guards soldiers who retreated hastily to the west were able to maintain a complete queue at the beginning.
However, seeing the cavalry of the Qinghe Army approaching rapidly behind them, under the trend of survival, they rushed to escape one by one, and no one could care about the other.
But how could two legs run faster than four? Although the soldiers of the Janissary tried their best, the cavalry behind them were getting closer and closer.
The faces of the soldiers of the Imperial Guard were full of panic and despair. Many of them staggered and fell to the ground, struggling and breathing heavily.
"Two wings outflank, surround them!"
Seeing the imperial guard troops retreating hastily in front of them, Tan Feng, who had been promoted to the commander of the 13th Banner Cavalry, gave an order, and the cavalry team immediately split into two groups of cavalry, one on the left and one on the right to encircle them.
The battle flag was fluttering, and the iron cavalry was criss-crossing. Not long after, the cavalry of the Qinghe army in black and black armor had surrounded the fleeing imperial guards like an iron barrel.
Seeing the murderous black-clothed cavalry galloping around, the guards who were surrounded were all panicked, and their hearts were full of fear of death.
"My lord, what should we do now?"
Seeing that they were already under heavy siege, the generals and battalion generals of the Imperial Guard all turned their attention to Vice General Wang, the backbone.
"Liu Yan, the dog day, sold us out!"
At this moment, Deputy General Wang also greeted the eighteen generations of the ancestors of Liu Yan, General Zhengdong.
It never occurred to him that Liu Yan gave him the credit for the pursuit, but in fact he had no good intentions.
"Brothers, there are too many bandit cavalry. If you want to survive, you have to put down your weapons and surrender."
After Deputy General Wang's eyes passed over the faces of these generals and battalion generals, a look of pain flashed in his eyes.
He was able to become the deputy general of the Imperial Guard, and he was promoted step by step by virtue of his military exploits.
The family also received preferential treatment from the imperial court because he was the deputy general of the imperial guards, but once he surrendered, the family would not be spared.
But for the sake of these tens of thousands of soldiers, in order to prevent them from being slaughtered, Vice General Wang can no longer care about his family members far away in the capital.
Those participating generals also showed hesitation, because they also had a lot of worries.
"Put down your weapons and surrender, or shoot to kill!"
"Put down your weapons and surrender, or shoot to kill!"
Just like a group of hungry wolves surrounded a group of sheep, the cavalry of the Qinghe Army also reined in their horses one after another, shouting at the panicked soldiers of the Imperial Guard.
"Don't hesitate, let's live first."
Seeing these hesitant generals and battalion generals, Vice General Wang couldn't help urging them.
"Master Lieutenant General, we listen to you."
They also knew that there was no hope of breaking through the encirclement. If they fought with the cavalry of the Qinghe Army, it is estimated that the entire army would be wiped out.
In the current situation, they can only save a life by laying down their weapons.
"lay down your weapon!"
"lay down your weapon!"
The battalion generals and generals all called their subordinates to put down their weapons and surrender to the cavalry of the Qinghe Army.
After hearing the officer's words, the soldiers of the Janissaries were also full of frustration, and left the weapons in their hands on the ground.
"Forget them to know the current affairs."
Seeing tens of thousands of imperial guards throwing away their weapons one after another, Tan Feng, head of the Thirteenth Banner Cavalry of the Qinghe Army, nodded in satisfaction.
If these imperial guards don't put down their weapons, then today's place is destined to be bloody.
"Go and confiscate their weapons and put them in custody."
Team QingheThe cavalry rode forward and began to receive the prisoners of the Praetorian Guards.
When the deputy commander-in-chief Lei Ming arrived, the Thirteenth Banner Regiment of the Cavalry had already completed the disarming of these Imperial Guard troops.
"You are not bad, kid. You have captured tens of thousands of enemies without losing a single soldier."
The deputy commander Lei Ming couldn't help but praise Tan Feng when he saw that the new head of the banner had won the first battle.
"Hey, it's the boss, you have a good command." Tan Feng said with a playful smile.
Lei Ming scolded with a smile: "Shit, don't put gold on my face."
"Where is Liu Yan, where are you asking now?" Lei Ming asked.
"I just asked their Deputy General Wang, and I heard that Liu led his troops to the west the night before yesterday, and their troops were released to attract our attention." Tan Feng reported and replied.
"This dog day runs pretty fast."
Lei Ming also knew about Liu Yan, after all, he used to be the battalion commander of the Imperial Black Cavalry Army.
"Pass down the order and move on."
Although they captured more than 10,000 imperial guards without a single soldier, there were still many prefectures and counties in the west that had not been recovered. Lei Ming and the others immediately pushed westward without stopping.
On the way, they encountered the troops of the Independent Third Banner Regiment led by Du Xiaoniu.
Seeing this beggar-like troop dressed in tatters, the cavalry of the Qinghe Army once thought they were some kind of rogue bandit, and even put on an attack posture.
Fortunately, Du Xiaoniu, the head of the banner, saw the cavalry in black and hurriedly ordered to unfurl the banner of the Qinghe Army, which avoided a misunderstanding.
Du Xiaoniu has been in the enemy's rear for so long, and now he has finally returned to the army with the friendly army, and the elders are also dancing with excitement.
"You have worked hard behind enemy lines."
Deputy Commander Lei Ming knew about Du Xiaoniu and the others, and also personally met Du Xiaoniu and expressed his concern for him.
"No hard work, no hard work."
The excited Du Xiaoniu was also incoherent with joy, because from now on, they no longer need to eat and sleep in the open, but can go in and out of various towns openly.
Du Xiaoniu and the others are active in the western part of the province, and they are also familiar with the situation in the prefectures and counties here.
Soon Du Xiaoniu and the others sent their guides to lead the Qinghe army to occupy various prefectures and counties.
Lei Ming led the cavalry all the way to the west and advanced to the border area with Hexi Province.
In the border area, Liu Yan, the court's general who conquered the east, has led the retreating troops to occupy the dangerous place and is ready for battle.
Seeing that the imperial army had put on a defensive posture, Lei Ming was not clear about the situation in the Hexi Province, so he did not rashly cross the border to attack, but led his troops to confront the imperial guards in the border area .
The cavalry of the Qinghe Army advanced to the border area of ??Hexi Province, which naturally made Liu Yan, the general who conquered the East, extremely nervous.
Although he still has tens of thousands of Imperial Guard troops in his hands, the image of the famous tree and the invincible image of the Qinghe Army has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he dare not be careless in the slightest. Both sides report requesting reinforcements. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
