Chapter 2295: The Third Prince Has Fallen to This LevelEditor: 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 Huai’s chaotic forces.

The difference was evident to anyone with eyes. As soon as the two teams lined up, it was clear which was superior. Huaixi’s confidence soared, and their fighting spirit was high, while Jiangning’s 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 didn’t forcibly conscript the people, drive away the innocent as meat shields, or rob them of their wealth. In terms of shamelessness, I can’t compare to you! It turns out you didn’t 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 state—it was truly sad.

As expected, when Zheng Sangge shouted these words, many generals’ expressions turned ugly on the spot.

Although it sounded like he was trying to sow discord, he was right. Wasn’t that exactly what Su Huai had been saying? Ever since they set off, he had repeated these words countless times.

The Emperor’s 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, ”Don’t talk nonsense! My brothers died for the Emperor. Shouldn’t we avenge them? The people are the Emperor’s people. Isn’t it only right for them to pay for the Emperor? You traitors, how dare you rebel? That’s why you’re cursed by the world! The Emperor once gave you a chance to turn over a new leaf, but you gave it up. Now you can’t 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 Huai’s troops were no match for the disciplined and confident Huaixi Army.

Zheng Sangge steadily blocked Su Huai’s attack, ready to counterattack at any moment. However, Su Huai’s 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 Prince’s 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 Sangge’s 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.
