Henyee Translations
The soldiers of Huaixi were neat and orderly, their aura radiant and imposing. Their blades flashed, and their battle cries thundered. They embodied the discipline and spirit of a proper army, starkly contrasting with Su Huaiâs chaotic forces.
The difference was evident to anyone with eyes. As soon as the two teams lined up, it was clear which was superior. Huaixiâs confidence soared, and their fighting spirit was high, while Jiangningâs troops were terrified, wishing they could flee.
Su Huai also felt the disparity. Instead of fear, he was consumed with rage. Pointing at Zheng Sangge, he shouted, "Zheng! You despicable and shameless person! Today, I will cut off your head and avenge my brothers!"
Zheng Sangge laughed heartily. "I didnât forcibly conscript the people, drive away the innocent as meat shields, or rob them of their wealth. In terms of shamelessness, I canât compare to you! It turns out you didnât send troops today to fight for your master, but to avenge those dead pirates! Hahahaha, I wonder if your master will be disappointed when he hears this!"
He made it sound like this was his private army.
How had the Third Prince fallen so low? He took in any Tom, Dick, or Harry. How could such a person be useful? A dignified prince of the Tian family, reduced to such a stateâit was truly sad.
As expected, when Zheng Sangge shouted these words, many generalsâ expressions turned ugly on the spot.
Although it sounded like he was trying to sow discord, he was right. Wasnât that exactly what Su Huai had been saying? Ever since they set off, he had repeated these words countless times.
The Emperorâs soldiers had become tools for Su Huai to solve his personal problems, so what were they now? Working for pirates? Just thinking about it was disgusting enough!
Su Huai shouted angrily, "Donât talk nonsense! My brothers died for the Emperor. Shouldnât we avenge them? The people are the Emperorâs people. Isnât it only right for them to pay for the Emperor? You traitors, how dare you rebel? Thatâs why youâre cursed by the world! The Emperor once gave you a chance to turn over a new leaf, but you gave it up. Now you canât surrender even if you want to. Show me your life!"
Raising his two sabers, Su Huai shouted as he rode his horse towards Zheng Sangge, intent on killing him. Zheng Sangge sneered and waved his sword forward, leading his soldiers into the charge.
Su Huai was imposing, but Zheng Sangge matched his intensity. However, Su Huaiâs troops were no match for the disciplined and confident Huaixi Army.
Zheng Sangge steadily blocked Su Huaiâs attack, ready to counterattack at any moment. However, Su Huaiâs troops could not last even three rounds before showing signs of defeat.
If Su Huai could defeat Zheng Sangge, he might have instilled confidence in his subordinates and turned the tide. The main general was the soul of the battle; their combat strength and willpower could often create miracles on the battlefield.
Su Huai believed he was such a miracle. How else could a water bandit have risen to his current position? However, he failed to acknowledge that his rise was largely due to the Third Princeâs incompetence. A more capable prince would never have entrusted such an important position to him.
Su Huai had initially thought he could easily defeat Zheng Sangge and exact his revenge. Unexpectedly, Zheng Sanggeâs martial arts skills were not inferior to his own; in fact, Zheng Sangge was slightly superior.
As Su Huai grew anxious, his movements became erratic, and he nearly let Zheng Sangge slash his shoulder.
