    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 93

    Although the two men in rough clothes were caught, they were struggling with staring eyes, looking extremely uncooperative.

    "Kneel down!"

    The guarded soldiers detained the two of them in front of Chen Ziang, and kicked them to the knees.

    The two rough-clothed men were pushed to the ground, but they still stiffened their necks, their faces full of dissatisfaction.

    "what happened?"

    Chen Zi'ang looked at the two captured men, and then turned his gaze to the guarding soldiers.

    "My lord, they are hiding in the woods furtively, and they are still holding knives. They are not good people at first glance." A security soldier replied.

    Chen Zi'ang took another look at the two men, and found that they were full of tendons, but they were also burly and sturdy, unlike ordinary villagers.

    "I think they are like rogues who kill people and rob goods. Why don't they take them out and slaughter them?"

    In these turbulent years, most of the common people were struggling in dire straits, lacking enough food and clothing, naturally yellow and emaciated and malnourished.

    However, these two men looked like they were full of flesh, but their bones were strong. It seemed that they had a prosperous life and carried a knife blade, so Zhang Bao suggested to pull them down and kill them.

    "What's the hurry, let me ask first."

    Chen Ziang is now the general in charge of the army, but instead he began to restrain his desire to kill.

    They raised troops against the Far Eastern Dynasty, and they raised their troops only when they could not survive, not for the purpose of killing people.

    So now Chen Ziang also has a little more compassion. Although human life is worthless, he still tries his best to avoid killing innocent people.

    "Tell me, who are you?" Chen Ziang interrogated them personally.

    The two men had rebellious faces, and a cold snort came out of their nostrils, but they didn't pay attention to Chen Ziang at all.

    "Damn it, if you are deaf or something, what about our adults asking questions?!"

    Seeing that the two were silent, Zhang Bao who was standing aside couldn't help kicking them a few times.

    They were in pain, and turned their heads to stare at Zhang Bao viciously, which made Zhang Bao angry, and pulled out his sword.

    "Leopard, you need to change your impatient temper. You are the deputy battalion commander now, so you can't be impatient."

    Seeing that Zhang Bao drew his sword at the slightest disagreement, Chen Ziang couldn't help but speak earnestly.

    "No!"

    Although Zhang Bao was furious, he still looked forward to Chen Ziang's immediacy, so he inserted the saber back into the scabbard angrily.

    "Li Changqing, interrogate them separately." Chen Ziang ordered.

    Li Changqing was waved by a hundred personal soldiers, and the two rough cloth men were detained separately.

    Soon, a man was brought back into custody again.

    "Your companion has confessed everything. I will give you another chance. If you say the same thing as him, I can save you from death. Otherwise, your life will be gone." Chen Ziang said.

    "Damn Zhang Hai, the boss can't spare you!"

    Hearing that his companion had explained everything, the man became impatient and couldn't help cursing.

    But as soon as he finished cursing, he stopped talking when he saw Chen Ziang's faint smile.

    "You lied to me, Zhang Hai wouldn't say it." The man realized that he had been cheated.

    Chen Ziang wanted to continue asking, but this man was worried that he would slip up, so he didn't want to say anything more.

    Chen Ziang had to have someone detain him, and another man was brought up.

    "Zhang Hai, right? Your companion has said everything. If you don't want to die, you can repeat the task assigned to you by your boss. If there is a slight difference from what he said, you will lose your life."

    The man named Zhang Hai was shocked when he heard that Chen Ziang knew his name, and he didn't expect to be betrayed.

    In order to save his own life, he had to tell Chen Ziang and the others exactly what he knew.

    Chen Ziang and the others easily obtained the desired information from these two people.

    These two people belonged to a group of bandits in the nearby Erlong Mountain. They guarded near the official road, and their main task was to absorb refugees and inquire about the situation at the same time.

    They thought that hiding in the shady woods would be safe, but who knew that Chen Ziang and the others went straight to the treeForest.

    The two of them hid in the woods and wanted to see how Chen Ziang and the others were doing, but they were caught by guard soldiers.

    "It really doesn't take much effort to find nowhere to go through the iron shoes."

    After learning that the bandits on Erlong Mountain had a lot of money and food, Chen Ziang couldn't help but burst out laughing.

    They were ordered to collect grain, but the villages along the way were empty, the fields were barren, and no grain could be found.

    Now I was worried about how to go back to work, but unexpectedly learned that there was a bandit den nearby, and there was a lot of food in the bandit den.

    After interrogating the two captured bandits, Chen Ziang and the others learned that there were only a few hundred bandits in Erlong Mountain, and their strength was not strong.

    "Let's go, let's raid the bandit's lair, and we'll be doing harm to the people!"

    Chen Ziang and the others couldn't find any food now. Since the blind cat ran into a dead mouse, he decided to go to Erlong Mountain to get some food and money by the way.

    And now most of the prefectures and counties in the entire Qinghe province are already under the control of their Qinghe army. I didn't expect there to be a bandit den hiding here.

    For their Qinghe army, since they are not friends, they are enemies, and it is better to eradicate them as soon as possible. If they are stabbed in the back, it will not be good.

    Chen Ziang gave the order, and several messengers quickly got on their horses and ran towards the distance to call Lin Yu, Yang Zhong and others who were collecting food separately, and let them come and meet.

    The eagle fought the rabbit with all his strength. Although there were only a few hundred bandits in Erlong Mountain, but they were able to hide under the eyes of the Qinghe army for so long. Naturally, they were not ordinary people. He didn't want to capsize in the gutter.

    In just a few hours, Yang Zhong, Lin Yu and others who were collecting food separately led their teams to join Chen Ziang.

    The food requisition team led by Li Lang may have gone too far and too far away, so they didn't come here in time to meet up.

    Although Li Lang's 1,000 men were missing, Chen Zi'ang and the others had assembled more than 3,000 men, which was enough.

    Following Chen Ziang's order, 3,000 infantrymen on horseback headed straight for Erlong Mountain, the nearby bandit den.

    Erlong Mountain is a distance away from the official road, surrounded by high mountains, dense forests, and jagged rocks. There is not even a single village in a radius of more than 20 miles. It is really deserted.

    Moreover, the bandit's village was built on the mountainside of Erlong Mountain, not to mention easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are tall trees around it, which is very concealed, and it is really difficult for ordinary people to find it.

    Although Chen Ziang said that he wanted to take over Erlong Mountain's cottage, he would not attack the door directly, that was not his fighting style.

    When he was still some distance away from Erlong Mountain, he pulled the troops into a hidden valley and left all the horses here.

    Because the terrain is not suitable for cavalry combat at all, and moreover, their half-baked cavalry has no combat effectiveness at all, so they might as well dismount and fight on foot.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
