Empire

At dawn, the Dynasty army was completely defeated. The camp was full of burning ashes and dead bodies, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Teams of blood-stained rebel officers and soldiers were holding knives and searching for the fish that had fallen into the net.

Facing the siege of the rebels, the defenseless Qinghe Provincial Guard and the remaining Black Cavalry under the command of the Governor Zhou Wen were almost completely wiped out.

"Report! The governor of Qinghe County of the Far East Dynasty, Zhou Wen, has been killed by the 1,000-man cavalry!"

When the leaders, surrounded by a group of generals, stepped into the messy camp of the Dynasty Army, someone immediately presented the head of Governor Zhou Wen to them.

""Good, good!"

Seeing the bloody head of the provincial governor Zhou Wen, the leaders were all smiling.

They had fought several times with the provincial guard commanded by the provincial governor Zhou Wen in Qinghe Province. Although the rebels won several times, they also suffered heavy losses.

And now that the provincial governor Zhou Wen has been beheaded, it can be said that a great enemy of the rebels has been solved. How can the rebel leaders not be happy?

Most of the rebel leaders seemed very happy, except for the black-faced leader and the small leaders under him.

Because when Chen Ziang proposed to continue fighting and attack the Dynasty Army camp at night last night, they were opposed.

In addition, Chen Ru and Zhang Yuan's two rebel troops participated in the night attack, and the black-faced leader The troops led by him remained motionless, watching the show with their arms folded.

In the eyes of the black-faced leader, the rebels were exhausted from the fierce fighting during the day, and the Dynasty Army camp was heavily guarded. A night attack would surely cause heavy losses to Chen Ru and Zhang Yuan's men.

By then, he would naturally be the strongest. If there was a chance, he could also annex Chen Ru and Zhang Yuan's troops, and he would become the sole commander of the rebel army.

However, man proposes, God disposes. Who would have thought that the night attack was not only successful, but also completely annihilated the Dynasty Army, and killed Governor Zhou Wen on the spot. This was beyond the expectations of the black-faced leader.

Now seeing the other leaders smiling happily, the black-faced leader felt very aggrieved. If he had known that the night attack was so easy, he would have participated in it himself.

"Immediately spread the word to all directions, our army killed the governor of Qinghe Province Zhou Wen, and the Black Cavalry Camp General Zhang Chao and more than 20,000 enemy troops......."

While they had won a great victory, the goat-bearded leader Chen Ru was happy, but he did not forget to do propaganda work.

They spread the news of the victory, on the one hand, to boost their momentum and attract other small rebel forces to join.

On the other hand, it was to intimidate the Far East Dynasty, which was close at hand, and create an atmosphere of public opinion.

"All camps should count the spoils, eliminate the remaining enemies, clean up the battlefield, and treat the wounded. Don't go home until you are drunk tonight!"

After the leaders issued a series of follow-up orders, they also announced that a grand celebration would be held in the evening.

"Long live the chief! Long live the chief!"

"Long live the rebels!"

"Long live!"

After hearing the leaders' words, the blood-stained rebel officers and soldiers were like chicken blood, and burst into thunderous cheers.

After the leaders smiled and inspected the battlefield, they returned to the camp to prepare for the celebration.

Wang Hu and others led by Chen Ziang were the first to break into the Dynasty Army camp. They fought for several hours and were exhausted.

After a night of fighting, only eleven brothers from their village were left, and the brothers from the old camp who followed them also suffered heavy losses.

Because they were the first to attack the Dynasty Army camp, they were besieged by the main force of the Dynasty Army, which attracted firepower and bought time for other rebel troops.

Now there is no fighting in the entire Dynasty Army camp. Only those rebel soldiers holding knives are searching for corpses everywhere, and finishing off the wounded Dynasty soldiers who are pretending to be dead. Screams can be heard from time to time.

""Master Qianren, we have made a fortune. The brothers found a lot of good things over there!"

When Chen Ziang and his men were leaning against the wooden stakes to rest, a brother ran over excitedly from a distance.

Seeing this brother so excited, Chen Ziang put down the water bag beside his mouth and couldn't help but teasing him.

"Lao Liu, what good stuff is this? Look how excited you are. Could it be a woman?"

"Hahaha......."

The brothers around couldn't help but burst into good-natured laughter.

The laughter of the brothers made the face of the brother named Lao Liu blush. You know, he is still a rookie.

Lao Liu paused and replied:"Sir, it's gold coins, there are several boxes of them."

"Oh? Where are the things?"

After hearing this, Chen Ziang couldn't help but get interested.

Gold coins are the currency of the Far East Dynasty, and they are considered hard currency. One gold coin can be exchanged for one hundred silver coins and one thousand copper coins.

One gold coin is enough for a family of three to live a rich life for a month, and now Lao Liu has found several boxes, which makes everyone's breathing become rapid.

The Far East Dynasty levied heavy taxes and corrupt officials were rampant, so that the people could not survive, which led to the vigorous uprisings in various places.

If they could survive, who would be willing to live a desperate life with their heads tied to their belts?

"Sir, it's in a tent over there." Lao Liu pointed to the distance and replied.

Chen Ziang knew the importance of a few boxes of gold coins, which were enough to make them a fortune.

As the saying goes, a horse cannot grow fat without wild grass, and a man cannot become rich without windfall. With a few boxes of gold coins, they can do a lot of things.

Chen Ziang tightened the kettle and stood up, and Wang Hu and others followed suit.

Chen Ziang ordered Lao Liu:"Lead the way——"

""Yes!"

Lao Liu immediately walked ahead excitedly, leading Chen Ziang and the others to the place where the gold coins were found.

But when they excitedly passed through a tent area���, arrived at the place where Lao Liu and his friends found the gold coins, but they all stopped in their tracks.

""Damn it, you are so blind. You dare to stop our young master. You are so tired of living!"

Chen Ziang and his men saw that more than a dozen rebel soldiers were kicking and cursing at several brothers who were rolling on the ground with their heads in their hands. There was also a young man in armor around them who was directing people to move things out of the tent.

These brothers who were beaten were Chen Ziang's men. Seeing this scene, Chen Ziang's face suddenly darkened. Wang Hu and others were crying in their hearts.

"Who is he?"

Chen Ziang had just arrived and had no impression of this young man in armor. After all, he was just a soldier.

"Sir, he is Xu Jiang, the son of the leader Xu Fu, and now serves as the thousand-man commander of the Sword and Shield Battalion."The hundred-man commander Wang Hu hurriedly leaned over to Chen Ziang's ear and whispered.

After hearing this, Chen Ziang immediately understood that this young man was the son of the black-faced leader.

"Stop it, everyone!"

Others were afraid of the black-faced leader, so they probably didn't dare to provoke his son, but Chen Ziang was not afraid.
