"Chase!"

After feeling that he was being fooled, the angry Left General Zhang Chen gritted his teeth and ordered a fierce pursuit.

Eight thousand black cavalry swept across the Qinghe Plain, with smoke and dust billowing and murderous aura rising to the sky. The frightened rabbits and birds in the grass fled to the distance, causing chaos.

The officers and soldiers of the 9th Battalion of the Qinghe Army also knew that there was a large group of black cavalry chasing them, so they fled south without stopping.

Their team was scattered, like the remnants of a defeated army.

"Hurry, throw all the pots and pans away!"

"Throw away your armor too!"

In order to speed up the escape, Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang Bao had to order the soldiers to throw away everything they were carrying.

Although the soldiers of the 9th Battalion were extremely reluctant, their lives were in danger at the moment, and they could not care so much.

So the soldiers of the 9th Battalion threw things while they fled, and the captured swords, lances, armor, their pots and pans, and packages were thrown all over the ground.

But even so, the distance between the Black Cavalry and them was still closing rapidly, and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.

The aggressive Black Cavalry chased them all the way, and when they arrived at a stream, their faces became particularly strange.

""Shh!"

General Zhang Chen's horse was sweating profusely as it galloped along under the pressure of his fat body.

Zhang Chen reined in his horse and squinted his eyes to see Chen Ziang and his companions who had escaped earlier were waiting for them on the other side of the stream. Seeing Chen Ziang and his companions standing quietly at the other end of the stream, Zhang Chen's expression was uncertain. I don't know what he was thinking.

"General Zuo, these bandits are all infantry. They are blocking here to buy time for them to escape!"

The Black Cavalry general who escaped death stared at Chen Ziang across the stream viciously and expressed his guess.

"I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself. Take your men and kill them!"

Zhang Chen panted and ordered the defeated battalion commander to attack and test Chen Ziang and his men.

""Yes!"

The Black Cavalry commander immediately led several hundred Black Cavalry light cavalry out of the crowd and rushed towards Chen Ziang and others on the other side of the stream.

"Sir, what should we do?"

Seeing the black cavalry rushing over, the thousand-man general Lin Yu's face became particularly solemn.

"Brothers! Get ready for battle!"

Chen Ziang stared coldly at the black cavalry who were rushing towards him, shouting and yelling, and drew out the sharp sword from his waist.

"kill——"

Chen Ziang did not retreat this time, but took the initiative to lead the Qinghe Army's light cavalry to meet them.

The two cavalry units soon collided with each other, and in the clanging of metal, blood splattered, and people were cut off their horses one after another.

"Die!"

The Black Cavalry commander killed three Qinghe cavalrymen who rushed towards him, then shouted angrily and rushed towards Chen Ziang.

Chen Ziang saw the Black Cavalry commander riding his horse towards him, and his cold eyes were full of murderous intent.

""Puff!"

After Chen Ziang knocked down a Black Cavalryman with his sword, he also rode forward.

The Black Cavalry commander was also overwhelmed by anger. He was now eager to win this fight and wash away the shame of failure.

The sharp long sword slashed towards Chen Ziang with a sound of breaking through the air. This sword was full of anger from the Black Cavalry commander.

But to the surprise of the Black Cavalry commander, his fatal sword fell into the air, because when the sword slashed over, there was no trace of Chen Ziang.

He realized that something was wrong and hurriedly put away the sword to defend himself, but it was too late.

Chen Ziang had already crawled out from under the horse's belly, and the sword stabbed forward directly, nearly The chest of the commander of the Black Cavalry, who was within reach, was stabbed through and through.

After Chen Ziang stabbed the commander of the Black Cavalry in the chest with a knife, he twisted the knife clockwise with force, and instantly crushed his chest cavity and internal organs. The commander of the Black Cavalry screamed and fell off his horse. Several Black Cavalry cavalrymen around him rushed up with red eyes, and were killed on the spot by Lin Yu and others.

This small-scale fight lasted only a few cups of tea, and more than 300 Black Cavalry light cavalry, including the commander of the Black Cavalry, were killed or wounded. Of the nearly 200 cavalrymen led by

Chen Ziang, only a few dozen were still on horseback, but each of them was covered in blood and exuded a fierce and violent aura.

""Hiss!"

General Zhang Chen and his men witnessed the fight with their own eyes. More than 300 light cavalrymen were killed. The ferocity of Chen Ziang and his men made them gasp.

If the Qinghe Army were all so fierce and powerful, then there would be no need to fight this battle.

General Zhang Chen's face was extremely ugly. He raised his right hand high, and a large group of black cavalrymen rushed out with murderous intent.

This time, Chen Ziang and his men did not overestimate their own strength and fight with thousands of light cavalrymen on the other side. They quickly turned around and fled.

The black cavalrymen led by Zhang Chen chased them all the way, as if they would not stop until they killed Chen Ziang and his men.

Soon, in the pursuit and escape, they left the Qingshui River plain area, and hills and sparse trees began to appear around them.

"Stop!"

Zhang Chen and his men soon followed Chen Ziang and his men to a canyon area. Zhang Chen, who was leading the way, ordered them to stop.

The sweaty Black Cavalry light cavalrymen all reined in their horses and stopped at the north end of the canyon.

Zhang Chen put his hands on the pergola and looked towards the woods and mountains on both sides of the canyon. There was nothing lush and green.

""Cowardly rat, if you have the guts, keep chasing me!"

When Zhang Chen was about to send out scouts to check if there were any ambushes around the canyon, Chen Ziang, who had rushed into the canyon, appeared at the entrance of the canyon again and gave Zhang Chen a thumbs up.

Chen Ziang and his men were as slippery as loaches, which made Zhang Chen and his men very angry along the way.

Seeing Chen Ziang provoking him again, Zhang Chen, who was furious, could no longer bear it.

"Kill, kill him, reward of 10,000!"

"General Zuo, this place is dangerous. Why not send out scouts to investigate before pursuing them?"A battalion commander felt that this was not right and spoke up hastily.

"Am I the commander or are you the commander?"

"Anyone who disobeys orders will be executed!"

Zhang Chen was in a terrible mood. Someone actually questioned his orders. He immediately scolded them.

"Chase!"

""Yes!"

The battalion commander was scolded for asking for trouble, and he felt aggrieved.

However, military orders could not be violated. Zhang Chen had already rushed to the canyon, and they could only follow him.

Eight thousand black cavalry rushed into the canyon like a whirlwind, leaving a cloud of dust.

When the eight thousand black cavalry led by Zhang Chen rushed into the canyon, dense Qinghe soldiers emerged from behind the dense forests and rocks on both sides of the canyon like ghosts.

When Chen Ziang and his men went to lure the enemy, the commander-in-chief Zhang Dayuan ordered the deputy commander Chen Ru to lead more than 30,000 people to set up an ambush in this canyon and set up a net to wait.
