    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1255

    Li Changqing, head of the Ninth Field Army of the Qinghe Army, led his troops to a decisive battle with the main force of the Guardian Army in the Hengshan area.

    As the last thousands of bloody Skitarii soldiers fell under the arrows, the Skitarii commanded by Kennan declared the entire army wiped out.

    Overturned flags, mutilated corpses and broken weapons are everywhere on the battlefield with a radius of more than ten miles.

    The Patriarchs of the Holy Vatican are arrogant and domineering. Since they invaded the Yunzhong province, they have attacked the city and pulled out the stronghold, and they have completely ignored the Qinghe army.

    But what they didn't expect was that in just a few months, they were completely wiped out.

    "Clean the battlefield and count the casualties!"

    Seeing the bloody battlefield, Li Changqing, the commander of the Ninth Army of the Qinghe Army, also secretly said that he was lucky.

    What they fought with was only an infantry that was extremely weak and had no cavalry cover.

    However, even with such a severely weakened force, their Ninth Army still fought extremely hard, and at the cost of many casualties.

    If the Skitarii led by Kennan was the Skitarii in its heyday, Li Changqing felt that it would be their Ninth Army that was defeated.

    Fortunately, God favored them, and what they encountered was a weak enemy that had run out of food and was under siege.

    "Report!"

    "Master Legion, the Eighth Legion has arrived!"

    When Li Changqing, the commander of the army, was commanding the army to clean up the battlefield, a scout Qingqi wandering around the periphery came to report, and Xu Yong's field eighth army approached.

    "Come on, let's go to meet you."

    Hearing that the Eighth Army led by Xu Yong approached, Li Changqing also had a smile on his face.

    If the Eighth Army had come a little earlier, maybe part of the credit for annihilating the enemy would have been awarded.

    However, the Eighth Army Corps came late this time, so they couldn't even drink the soup. The credit was entirely due to their Ninth Army Corps, so Li Changqing was naturally happy.

    Under the night, with the sound of horseshoes, a whole army holding torches appeared in Li Changqing's field of vision.

    Xu Yong, commander of the Eighth Field Army of the Qinghe Army, saw the densely packed torches in the distance, so he was the first to greet them surrounded by the cavalry.

    "But the commander of Xu Yong's army?"

    Seeing a group of cavalry with torches coming towards this side rapidly, Li Changqing asked loudly while riding on horseback.

    "I'm Xu Yong, the commander of the Eighth Army, but brother Li Changqing is on the opposite side?" Xu Yong replied loudly.

    "I am Li Changqing."

    Xu Yong clamped his legs on the horse's belly and stepped forward, while Li Changqing also got off his horse and led the generals to greet him.

    Xu Yong reined in his horse in front of Li Changqing and the others, and led several banner leaders and the first guard, and the second banner leaders got off their horses one after another.

    Under the light of the torches, the Ninth and Eighth Army Corps of the Qinghe Army joined forces victoriously in this wilderness.

    "Commander Xu Yong, on behalf of all soldiers of the Ninth Army, welcome!"

    After Li Changqing stood up and gave a military salute, he smiled and stretched out his hand.

    "Brother Li, I'm ashamed. I'm a step late. I don't know where the cathars are fleeing now?"

    Xu Yong also stretched out his hand and held Li Changqing's hand tightly, saying embarrassingly.

    Xu Yong led his troops to chase after the enemy under Chen Ziang's order, but recently there have been several heavy rains in this area, causing the river to surge and the upstream mountain torrents to erupt.

    Xu Yong and the others were blocked by the sudden flash flood, and the cataracts demolished the bridge, so it was long overdue.

    "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, the magic sticks of the Skitarii have been wiped out by our Ninth Legion!"

    "What, wiped them all out?"

    Xu Yong learned that Li Changqing's Ninth Army Corps was here, so he rushed over to join him, thinking that the Skitarii had broken through their defense and escaped.

    But what he never expected was that Li Changqing's Ninth Army actually wiped out this group of enemies.

    "Commander Xu Jun, the battle ended half an hour ago." Banner Commander Cao Guo couldn't hide his inner joy and explained.

    Hearing that the battle ended half an hour ago, Xu Yong was also very annoyed. If he knew it, he would run faster, and now he can't even drink the soup.

    "The Ninth Army is worthy of being the tiger's division of our Qinghe Army! With one's own power, we can completely wipe out the Patriarch Army.But it's a great achievement!  "

    Xu Yong also looked at the young army commander Li Changqing with envy, and began to praise him.

    After all, Li Changqing was born in Chen Ziang's personal guard, and now he is the commander of the 100,000 army at a young age, and his future is limitless.

    Although this time their Eighth Army was one step late and did not catch up with the battle, it is a pity, but it is also good to have a good relationship with Li Changqing.

    "I have already ordered the brothers to light the fire and cook. You have come from a long distance, and the journey is exhausting. Why don't we set up camp and chat while we eat."

    Seeing Xu Yong and the others who had arrived in a hurry, Li Changqing greeted them and invited them to have dinner together.

    "Respect is worse than obedience."

    Xu Yong and the others were delayed for so long by the mountain torrents blocking their way, and now they have marched all the way here in a hurry, and they have nothing to eat.

    Now that the enemy has been wiped out, there is nothing to worry about, so he did not refuse.

    Soon, in the temporary camp on one side of the bloody battlefield, the Ninth Field Army and the Eighth Army, the First Guards, and the Second Banner Regiment held a victory meeting ceremony.

    Amidst the huge cheers, pots of cooked meals were served, and the soldiers of the Qinghe Army who joined us devoured them hungrily, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

    This is the first time that the Ninth Army led by Li Changqing and Xu Yong's Eighth Army and Guards Army have met.

    However, the two sides have a long history. When Li Changqing led his troops to Baishan Province alone, Xu Yong, who was still a rebel at the time, deliberately let go of a gap, and Li Changqing was able to pass.

    Li Changqing was born as the captain of Chen Ziang's personal guard, and Zhao Hong, the head of the First Banner of the Guards, was also born as the captain of Chen Ziang's personal guard.

    Therefore, in the face of Li Changqing, the commander in charge of a legion, Zhao Hong, the head of the Guard Banner, also respects and admires him.

    The army had just won a battle, and the two armies joined forces again, which was undoubtedly more joyful, so the celebration banquet lasted until midnight.

    Early the next morning, the Ninth Army Corps counted the number of casualties in the battle and reported it to Li Changqing.

    In this battle, they beheaded 50,000 heads of the guardian army, among which the red general Kenan, more than 20 generals in black and more than 100 generals in purple were beheaded on the battlefield.

    In addition, they also beheaded a cardinal and eight black bishops, inflicting heavy damage on the Holy See.

    You know, the number of cardinals and red generals in the Holy See can be counted on one finger, and now they have killed two of them.

    And the status of generals in black in the Holy See is equivalent to that of the banner-level generals in the Qinghe Army, and twenty of them died in the first battle.

    Since then, the more than 200,000 cathars who invaded Yunzhong province in three batches were wiped out, and the lost troops accounted for nearly 40% of the total strength of the Holy See.

    In this battle, a large number of senior generals of the Skitarii were killed, and it was also a battle of prestige after the establishment of the Far East Empire!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
