Empire

Chen Ziang's soldiers always emphasized mutual cooperation during their training. The five-man combat team cooperated skillfully with each other, making it difficult for the dynasty cavalry to resist.

Seeing that their garrison officers were beheaded by Chen Ziang, the remaining cavalry dared not fight against this group of bloodthirsty lunatics.

"withdraw!"

""Retreat quickly!"

A cavalry officer saw the grinning thousand men holding Li Lang's bloody sword and walking towards him. He turned pale with fear and lost his will to fight. The remaining Dynasty cavalry kicked their horses and tried to withdraw from the battle and retreat to Wenxian County.

But when they turned their horses around, they found that a thousand murderous Qinghe soldiers had cut off their retreat.

"Brothers, kill them!"

Zhang Bao, a general of a thousand men, was cutting down trees not far away. When he saw the Dynasty cavalry rushing out of the city, he quickly gathered.

When Chen Ziang led a thousand men to fight with the Dynasty cavalry, Zhang Bao had already brought reinforcements to cut off the retreat of these Dynasty cavalry.

Zhang Bao was also a brave and fierce general. He led the way and rushed to the front.

A Dynasty cavalryman raised his sword and chopped at Zhang Bao. Zhang Bao rolled over and avoided the sharp sword. At the same time, the sword in his hand cut off the horse's leg.

The horse overturned forward, and the Dynasty cavalryman fell forward and rolled to the ground.

Before the Dynasty cavalryman struggled to get up, Zhang Bao's sharp sword was against his neck.

Zhang Bao looked at the Dynasty cavalryman who was pressed under him with fear on his face, and smiled grimly.

He swung his sword outward With a pull, the blade cut the throat of the Dynasty cavalry, and the splattering blood sprayed all over Zhang Bao

's face. The blood all over his face combined with his sharp white teeth made him look particularly terrifying. He turned his head and frightened another Dynasty cavalryman who tried to rush towards him and turned around and fled.

Chen Ziang's men were a group of fearless tigers and wolves. Under their siege, more than a hundred Dynasty cavalrymen who rushed out of the city were quickly killed.

The garrison officers and soldiers of Wen County and the county magistrate stood on the top of the city, watching their only cavalry team of a hundred men disappear in the blink of an eye, and they gasped.

The county magistrate of Wen County just wanted this cavalry to make a test attack to see how strong Chen Ziang and his men were. However, he did not expect that the meat bun hitting the dog would not come back, and their only mobile force was wasted in vain.

"Hurry up and report to the prefectural city. The enemy army is coming with great force and strength. Our army has lost the first battle. Please send troops to rescue them quickly!"

The magistrate of Wen County saw the fighting power of Chen Ziang and his men. While he was shocked, he also hurriedly sent cavalry to Guiyi Prefecture for help.

A moment later, several cavalrymen carrying the handwritten letter of the magistrate of Wen County left the north city of Wen County and headed straight for Guiyi Prefecture.

"Report to the captain: Three cavalrymen from Wen County are leaving the city from the north gate. Should we intercept them?

Chen Ziang and his few scouts were roaming around Wen County and soon found the cavalrymen from Wen County who were seeking help.

"Let them go."

After receiving the report from the scouts, Chen Ziang did not order the scouts to kill them.

He knew without thinking that they had killed more than a hundred Wenxian cavalrymen, and Wenxian would definitely send people to ask for help.

Chen Ziang and his men won the battle, killing more than a hundred cavalrymen in the wilderness with infantry, which can be said to have boosted their morale.

Soon, the bodies of these cavalrymen were placed outside the gate of Wenxian by Chen Ziang and his men. The bloody bodies made the guards of Wenxian look extremely ugly.

"You are ordered to surrender before tomorrow morning, otherwise, after the city is broken, no one will be left alive!"

The thousand men, half of their bodies soaked in blood, threw Zhang Bao's body outside the gate of Wen County and did not forget to threaten and intimidate him.

After Zhang Bao threatened, he left the bloody body behind and retreated in a swagger.

Chen Ziang and his men fought with the Dynasty Army cavalry. Although they killed more than a hundred cavalry, they also lost more than sixty soldiers.

These soldiers were sword and shield soldiers deployed at the front. Many of them died because their shields were smashed by their horses and their lungs were shattered.

In addition to the more than sixty soldiers who died, there were dozens of injured soldiers, but overall, they can be regarded as having won the battle.

"The fallen brothers will receive 10 gold coins each as compensation, the injured brothers will receive 5 gold coins as compensation, and the rest will be rewarded according to their achievements!"

The soldiers were originally in a heavy mood because so many of their comrades were killed and injured. After hearing what Chen Ziang said, they shouted excitedly.

Chen Ziang and his men cleaned up the battlefield and seized more than 30 war horses, not even letting go of the meat of the dead horses.

Although the taste of these horse meats is indeed not very good, Chen Ziang and his men were born in the grass, and as long as they can fill their stomachs, they don't care so much.

After Chen Ziang and his men cleaned up the battlefield, they began to cut down trees to make ladders, as if they were going to attack the city.

The county magistrate of Wen County also sent three waves of messengers in a row towards the direction of Guiyi Prefecture. because he knew that with only one thousand soldiers from Wen County, they would never be able to defeat those arrogant and powerful generals outside the city.

But what the defenders of Wen County didn't know was that after dark, Chen Ziang, who had planned to attack the city with great fanfare, quietly left Wen County with his main force.

They lit a bonfire in the camp outside Wen County. The defenders of Wen County didn't dare to go out of the city to investigate, and naturally didn't know that except for the wounded led by the thousand-man general Lin Yu, the rest of the people in the camp had already left.

After nightfall, Chen Ziang and his men buried the bodies of the fallen soldiers, and then began a forced march towards the city of Guiyi Prefecture.

Many soldiers were They were night blind, and Chen Ziang and his men had no torches, so everyone was holding onto a rope to prevent themselves from getting separated.

Even so, the bumpy road still caused many people to fall from time to time, groaning in pain, but they were quickly pulled up by their comrades.

The military order that Chen Ziang and his men received was to lead the army and act as a reconnaissance vanguard in the attack on Guiyi Prefecture. However,

Chen Ziang came to attack Wen County in a swaggering manner, and his purpose was simple, which was to confuse the enemies of Guiyi Prefecture.

Even though the soldiers of the 9th Battalion were training in daily raids, the distance from Wen County to Guiyi Prefecture, which was more than a hundred miles, was too short. The fast march still made them exhausted.

Moreover, halfway through, they also encountered a Dynasty army coming from the direction of Guiyi Prefecture. There were about two thousand people. They should be going to reinforce Wen County, and they passed by Chen Ziang and his men.

Chen Ziang and his men's target was Guiyi Prefecture. They only sent people to notify the thousand people who stayed in Wen County to evacuate Lin Yu in advance, and they went straight to Guiyi Prefecture without stopping.

When it was almost dawn, the soldiers of the 9th Battalion, who were soaked in sweat, finally arrived outside the city of Guiyi Prefecture. When

Chen Ziang counted the number of people, only 1,500 people caught up, and the rest fell behind halfway.

"Zhang Bao!"

"The end is here!"

"You take 100 men and change into the Dynasty Army uniforms."

Chen Ziang pointed at the tattered uniforms that they had taken off the Dynasty cavalry and ordered

""Yes!"

Zhang Bao and others didn't know why Chen Ziang wanted these blood-stained uniforms, but now they suddenly realized.
