Chapter 1730 Don’t keep His Highness waiting too long
Helan Chushi and Chen Xiuliang went out of the city to exterminate the bandits.
There are less than 200 bandits, so how can they be the opponents of the Cangzhou Army?
In just one day, Helan Chushi wiped out all the bandits outside Hecheng.
But Chen Xiuliang couldn’t be happier. ??
It has to be the Cangzhou Army, otherwise the government officials in Hecheng will be killed by these bandits sooner or later.
"General Helan is extremely brave. A mere bandit was wiped out by General Helan in less than a day. I would like to thank General Helan on behalf of the tens of thousands of people in Hecheng." Chen Xiuliang and Helan Chushi bowed their hands in greeting.
Helan Chushi waved his hand, without any concern on his face.
Too.
He came this time not to suppress bandits, but because he wanted to kill Zhao Chen.
Otherwise, a mere bandit with 200 people is worthy of Helan Chushi personally taking action?
Helan Chushi now doesn't know how his personal guards are doing.
However, Helan Chushi was not very worried. He had left a thousand men and horses outside the city, and the defense of Hecheng was taken over by his Cangzhou Army.
You can enter the city to intercept Zhao Chen at any time.
With the dozens of Xuanjia troops under Zhao Chen, he still wanted to stop the thousand men under him.
It is estimated that Zhao Chen's body was disposed of after this incident.
I just wait to hear the good news when I go back.
"County Magistrate Chen, what I'm worried about now is whether there are bandits in the city. If they know that His Highness the King of Han is also in the city, will they retaliate against them?" Helan Chushi wanted to do something about Zhao Chen's death in advance.
Good foreshadowing.
So he opened his mouth and hinted at Chen Xiuliang.
Chen Xiuliang was confused. He didn't know that there were bandits in Hecheng.
If there were really bandits, and Helan Chushi led his troops to wipe out the bandits' nest, there is no guarantee that those bandits would not kill them all and attack Zhao Chen's residence.
That way
first……
"This is how to do?"
"If something happens to His Highness the King of Han, it will really be over!" Chen Xiuliang's heart beat violently for a while.
In his heart, he had begun to secretly blame Helan Chushi for not informing him of this matter in advance.
I was in Crane City. If I knew this news, I would definitely protect the safety of King Han at all costs.
But now...
"Magistrate Chen, there is no need to worry. The city defenses are all members of the Cangzhou Army. There are so many Cangzhou Army outside the city. How can we let those bandits harm the King of Han?"
"I'm just talking." Helan Chushi said with a smile.
When Chen Xiuliang heard this, he felt relieved.
After all, there are a thousand Cangzhou troops outside Hecheng, so there is no way that anything could happen to the King of Han.
If something happened to the King of Han, wouldn't Helan Chushi be more responsible than himself?
Chen Xiuliang did not know that once he received the news of Zhao Chen's death, he would kill Chen Xiuliang as soon as possible.
In this way, he was helping to exterminate the bandits. As for the bandits' revenge, the murder of the King of Han had nothing to do with Helan Chushi.
At this moment, Helan Chushi's heart was full of returning to Hecheng as soon as possible when he heard the news from his own bodyguard that Zhao Chen was dead.
…
On the second day after the bandits were exterminated, Helan Chushi returned to Hecheng with Cangzhou soldiers and horses.
Along the way, Cangzhou soldiers and horses formed a long line of horses. Helan Chushi was riding on a tall horse, always with a smile on his face.
But when he returned to the outside of Hecheng, he did not see the personal guards who were supposed to come out to greet him.
Even here, he didn't even have a Cangzhou Army soldier
Not seen.
Helan Chushi's face suddenly darkened, and his eyes became sharp.
His keen sense made him realize that something might have gone wrong in Hecheng.
But rationality told him that his own bodyguards led a thousand people, and they would definitely be able to deal with Zhao Chen's dozens of people with ease.
There is absolutely no chance of any accidents happening.
No one is here now. They are probably still processing the bodies of Zhao Chen and others, so they were delayed.
"Come, let the Cangzhou Army officers and soldiers in the military camp come out to greet you." Helan Chushi waved his hand, and his soldiers ran to the Cangzhou Army barracks outside the city.
But the strange thing is that no one from the distant military camp came out to greet him.
This made Helan Chushi feel a little panicked.
The development of things should never be like this. His own bodyguard did not bring anyone out to greet him, which made Helan Chushi feel that things were very unusual. .??.
But he absolutely does not believe that Zhao Chen can capture a thousand of his own with only the dozens of people under his command?
Even with a thousand pigs, Zhao Chen and the others would not be able to do so easily.
"Send someone more..."
"His Royal Highness the King of Han has an order to ask General Helan, the commander-in-chief of the Cangzhou Army, to come to his account and see him." Helan Chushi also wanted to send someone to check on the situation.
Suddenly, I heard a voice coming from behind.
When he looked back, he didn't know when a group of cavalry appeared behind him and others.
The person who spoke to him was Qin Sanpao, the captain of Xuanjia Military Academy.
Helan Chushi's expression changed drastically.
All his men are infantry, and they will not have any combat effectiveness at all under the attack of cavalry.
But he never figured out where this cavalry came from and why they suddenly appeared behind him without them noticing.<
br>
"It turns out that His Royal Highness the King of Han invited General Helan. He must be to commend General Helan for his contribution in wiping out the bandits." Chen Xiuliang said with a smile, with an envious look on his face.
But in Helan Chushi's view, his death was coming soon.
Helan Chushi's mouth was bitter. He already understood at this moment that his personal guards were probably killed by Zhao Chen.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t have seen even a single figure from the Cangzhou Army.
But Helan Chushi still couldn't figure out why.
He had obviously sent out many scouts, but he had not found any trace of the army's march.
So where did these cavalry come from?
Is it really a divine weapon descended from heaven?
Helan Chushi didn't understand, but he had no chance now.
These cavalrymen surrounded him tightly. If he didn't go, these people would probably attack them directly.
Having come this far, Helan Chushi did not want to take the lives of these Cangzhou Army soldiers again.
"The general knows." Helan Chu Shiyong said with an almost sighing voice.
At the same time, he was lamenting his fate.
Helan Chushi dismounted, passed through a group of Cangzhou Army soldiers, and walked slowly towards the military camp ahead.
Qin Sanpao followed beside him, always on guard against Helan Chushi's actions.
But at this moment, Helan Chushi was so heartbroken that he could not even think about escaping.
"Where did these cavalry come from?" Helan Chushi suddenly stopped and asked Qin Sanpao beside him.
"Let's go quickly, don't keep His Highness waiting too long." Qin Sanpao did not answer Helan Chushi's words, but urged Helan Chushi to leave quickly.
Helan Chushi sighed again and then walked into the camp.
When he looked up, Zhao Chen was already sitting on the chair waiting for him.
