"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 666
In the hazy drizzle, iron hooves rumbled and muddy water splashed on the provincial road, and more than a hundred black cavalrymen in battle robes and cavalry hats were galloping on horseback.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a majestic face, but he was wearing a green robe dressed as a civil servant, and he was already soaked through at the moment.
There are many towns along the provincial highway, but apart from dismounting a few times for supplies, they rushed towards Huaiyang Mansion almost non-stop.
"Stop coming!"
When they approached the periphery of Huaiyang Mansion, a Qinghe military checkpoint set up on the provincial road stopped them.
Although these more than a hundred cavalry were all dressed as cavalry of the Qinghe Army, the guards of the Qinghe Army on this checkpoint still held their spears and knives tightly, as if they were facing an enemy.
"Xi Lv¡ª¡ª"
The leader of more than a hundred cavalrymen was Yuan Jie, the deputy commander of the Qinghe Army. He hurriedly reined in his horse, and the horse's front hooves were raised, and the people stood up.
"I am Yuan Jie, deputy army commander, is the general in Huaiyang City?"
Yuan Jie wiped the rain off his face, turned his eyes to the hundred general of the Qinghe Army standing horizontally in the middle of the road with a knife handle in his hand, and asked loudly.
"Zhou Yuan, a hundred-member general of the Third Banner Battalion of the Twelfth Banner Regiment, has met the Deputy Commander!"
Seeing that the middle-aged man in the green robe was Yuan Jie, the commander of the Volunteer Army, the hundred generals immediately stood up and saluted.
Although Yuan Jie was born as a civil servant, he led the troops to capture the Jiangnan Province, and now he has a high prestige.
The Twelfth Banner Regiment followed Yuan Jie to fight in Jiangnan Province, so Yuan Jie can be regarded as their immediate boss.
"Reporting to the deputy head of the army, the general is currently in Huaiyang City."
After the military salute, the hundred-man general glanced at the road behind Yuan Jie and the others before answering loudly.
"Hurry up and report, just say that I want to see the general." Yuan Jie ordered.
The hundred generals stepped aside to clear the way: "The general has ordered that the deputy head of the army can directly enter the city when he arrives."
Yuan Jie and the others rushed to Huaiyang Mansion non-stop. Now that he heard the words of the hundred generals, he also felt awe-inspiring. He didn't expect that Chen Ziang had already got the news of their arrival first.
After Yuan Jie and Han Feng, the head of the Twelfth Banner, looked at each other, they both showed expressions of fear.
If they hadn't come to Huaiyang Mansion in person, it would have been another scene.
"Thank you."
Yuan Jie, the deputy head of the army, saw the soldiers of the Qinghe army who hurriedly moved away the Juma Luchai, thanked them, put his legs on the horse's belly, and led the cavalry quickly past the checkpoint.
Just a moment later, several Qinghe army scout cavalry who were also drenched in water arrived at this checkpoint.
After these scout cavalrymen threw their badges to the general of the checkpoint centurion, the hundred general of the checkpoint hurriedly let them go.
"There is no army behind."
When leaving this checkpoint, a hundred generals of the scout cavalry said something in a low voice.
The general in charge of the checkpoint nodded, his tense cheeks became much more relaxed, and he let out a long sigh of relief.
Yuan Jie, the deputy head of the army, naturally didn't know what happened at the checkpoint. He galloped all the way with more than a hundred guard cavalry, passed more than ten checkpoints, and then arrived outside the city of Huaiyang Mansion.
Huaiyang Mansion, as one of the ten prefectures in the Jiangnan Province, naturally has a large population and is rich and prosperous.
It's just that there are soldiers of the Qinghe Army standing on the top of the city of Huaiyang Mansion, holding weapons, countless strong bows and crossbows aimed at the outside of the city, and there is a tense atmosphere in the air.
The general of the Qinghe Army who was in charge of this city gate recognized Yuan Jie and Han Feng, the head of the 12th Banner, and waved them to let them go. At the same time, they were led to the Admiral's Mansion of Huaiyang Mansion.
Yuan Jie, the deputy commander of the army, has not been to Huaiyang Mansion yet. Seeing the row upon row of buildings and wide streets in the city, he couldn't help nodding. The prosperity of the Jiangnan Province is not comparable to that of the Jiangbei Province.
When Yuan Jie and the others arrived at the Admiral's Mansion, they saw a group of people standing on the steps of the Admiral's Mansion from a distance.
Yuan Jie took a closer look, but Chen Ziang, who was wearing a battle armor and a battle robe, was standing there, waiting for them.
Yuan Jie rode his horse and hurried for a few steps, then got off his horse with Han Feng, the head of the 12th Banner, and walked over quickly.
"Yuan Jie pays his respects to the general!"
"Han Feng greets the general!"
Yuan Jie?After Han Feng stood still, he hurriedly saluted Chen Ziang who was standing on the steps.
Yuan Jie was wearing the robes of a civilian official, but he was doing the military salute with fists and chest crossed in the army, which seemed a bit weird.
Chen Ziang and everyone on the steps also returned their salutes one after another, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious.
"Old Yuan, Brother Han, you have worked hard these days, don't stand in the rain and drench, I have already ordered someone to prepare ginger soup to drive the cold, drink a bowl later."
Seeing Yuan Jie and Han Feng standing in the rain, Chen Ziang greeted them to go up the steps with a smile.
After Yuan Jie and Han Feng heard Chen Ziang's greeting, they breathed a sigh of relief and stepped up the steps.
"Deputy Head Tian, ??entertain the other brothers well."
At the same time, Chen Ziang gave instructions to Tian Changjie, the deputy head of the banner standing aside.
"No!"
After Tian Changjie responded, he also personally greeted the guard cavalry who followed Yuan Jie and the others.
"How is it? Is the journey going smoothly?"
Chen Ziang invited Yuan Jie and others to change clothes and rest in the mansion, and asked about the road conditions while walking.
"Thanks to the general, the journey went smoothly." Yuan Jie replied cautiously.
As for how Chen Ziang knew they were coming, if Chen Ziang didn't say anything, Yuan Jie naturally couldn't ask.
Now the Intelligence Investigation Department of the Qinghe Army has begun to lay an intelligence network in Jiangnan Province, and there are also people from the Intelligence Investigation Department in some important towns.
In the past few days, Chen Zi'ang learned about Yuan Jie's movements through the intelligence investigation department and military scouts.
After a lot of understanding, Chen Ziang has actually dispelled the misunderstanding of Yuan Jie and the others.
It's just that now that Yuan Jie is already a general with a heavy army in his hands, Chen Ziang deliberately didn't go to the provincial capital, and also wanted to take advantage of the trend to beat him.
Not long after Yuan Jie and Han Feng left the provincial capital, Chen Ziang got the news.
"It's good that the trip went well. I was attacked by more than a thousand bandits a few days ago, and I almost couldn't see you." Chen Ziang laughed.
"General, we are not effective in suppressing the bandits, please punish the general."
After hearing this, both Yuan Jie and Han Feng felt bitter, and hurriedly cupped their fists to plead guilty.
"What are you punishing for? You took down the Jiangnan province. It's too late for me to reward you."
Chen Ziang walked forward in big strides while talking, Yuan Jie and Han Feng had no choice but to follow suit, but they were a little guilty in their hearts, not knowing the intention of Chen Ziang's words.
"After a few days in Huaiyang Mansion, after many investigations, I found that there is a serious banditry in Jiangnan Province. Is there such a thing?"
Chen Ziang briefly brought up the matter of being attacked, and then changed the topic. Yuan Jie and the others couldn't figure out what Chen Ziang was thinking, so they had no choice but to follow along.
"Reporting to the general, there is indeed such a thing." Yuan Jie replied in a straightforward manner.
"Why didn't you send troops to conquer?"
"We have two banner regiments, and one of them is a cavalry unit. It stands to reason that it is not difficult to destroy them." Chen Ziang turned his head to look at Yuan Jie, waiting for his explanation.
Yuan Jie sighed and said: "The general doesn't know, the banditry in Jiangnan Province is different from other places. Although we have a large army, we are helpless."
