Chapter 2147 Revenge
The result was that they ended up abandoning their weapons and fleeing in panic.
The family fortune accumulated over so many years, so much silver, so much gold, so many jewels, antiques, rare calligraphy and paintings...
There was also a whole set of exquisitely carved huanghuali furniture, so many fine silks and satins, and the superb orchids that he had carefully cared for for so many years - he couldn't think about it anymore, his heart was really about to die!
Magistrate Liu confessed with tears and cursed himself for his stupidity.
However, Shao Yunduan had evil intentions and had been plotting rebellion for a long time. How could he not be on guard against him? Whatever he was going to do, he would cover it up.
It was because he was too insidious and cunning that I was kept in the dark about everything and ended up in this situation today!
To be honest, it was all my fault. I shouldn't have trusted him too much and shouldn't have taken it lightly...
Sun Pu's anger subsided a little, but he hated Shao Yunduan even more and wished he could wipe out all his clan.
"Who does he think he is? He dares to rebel! He doesn't even know how powerful he is! If I hadn't been caught off guard, how could I have lost to a sour scholar like him!"
In anger, Sun Pu immediately mobilized his troops and assembled 20,000 soldiers, preparing to march towards the provincial capital of Huaixi.
Of course, we have to get it back where we lost it.
Otherwise, how could he, the biological son of General Sun, still have any shame?
Besides, my cousin the emperor asked me to be responsible for conquering this area, and I patted my chest in front of him and promised to complete the task.
He said he would take over Huaixi Province no matter what!
But unexpectedly, it started to rain.
The rain poured down in torrents, like a river bursting its banks, turning the ground into a vast ocean.
Such weather is obviously not conducive to marching. Not to mention other things, food and fodder alone cannot be supplied.
Moreover, the roads in this area are not good. On rainy days, there are potholes and mud everywhere. An army of 10,000 marching through here, let alone looking heroic, murderous and full of momentum, would simply be a group of drowned rats!
Sun Pu had no choice but to wait patiently.
This wait lasted for seven or eight days, Sun Pu was so angry!
What if God is against him?
That would have been fine, but he originally wanted to lead his men on a quick march to attack the provincial capital of Huaixi by surprise, but he was ambushed by the enemy instead.
Although the main force recovered quickly, they only lost two to three hundred people, but it made them feel even more frustrated!
In a rage, they attacked the provincial capital of Huaixi, but they were already exposed. There was no way to catch the enemy off guard, so they simply deployed their troops and attacked.
Ten thousand troops are enough! How many can Shao Yunduan really send out?
Sun Pu was right about this. Shao Yunduan could only send out less than three thousand men, which was far less than ten thousand.
However, with Zheng Sangge, Sun Bai, Sun Qian and others around, how could a mere Sun Pu take advantage of them!
Sun Pu challenged Sun Bai to a battle, and the general he sent out to fight was nearly killed by Sun Bai on the battlefield. He was so angry that he almost cursed his bad luck, and immediately ordered the drums to be beaten to attack. However, Sun Bai did not engage in a head-on battle with him at all, and quickly led his men back to the city and held the city wall.
No matter how Sun Pu's men challenged them, they refused to come out.
Sun Pu angrily ordered his men to attack, but they didn't gain any advantage at all.
Sun Pu was at his wits' end and could only send people to the city every day to shout and humiliate the enemy, trying to provoke them to fight.
No one from Shao Yunduan's side went into battle, but one night he sent a thousand elite soldiers for a surprise attack, killing Sun Pu and making him throw his men and horses into chaos and abandon their armor and weapons!
