Chapter 2275 Defeat
This was not enough. Before they could rest and come up with a good way to deal with the situation, the troops of Qin Wuyou and Zheng Sangge joined forces and continued to chase and kill them aggressively!
The Su family army fled in panic like a frightened bird.
After being chased by Zheng Sangge's men for several days and nights, they were driven towards Zhoushan. The number of Su's army became smaller and smaller, and everyone was exhausted.
At this point, everyone's face was pale, their eyes were dull, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing. There was no longer any trace of the arrogance and domineeringness of the past.
I don't even have the energy to yell.
Su Huai's right arm was also injured, an arrow wound. Because it was not bandaged and treated in time, the wound had festered, inflamed, and kept bleeding, looking very scary. Even more terrifying was his eyes and face.
Su Huai still refused to accept that he had suffered a crushing defeat and that there was almost no possibility of him making a comeback. He was filled with hatred and whenever he stopped, he would curse Zheng Sangge and Shao Yunduan.
It seemed that as long as he still had a team of troops, he would be able to defeat Zheng Sangge, attack the Huaixi provincial capital and capture Shao Yunduan alive.
The reason for his miserable defeat was not because of his incompetence, but because Zheng Sangge was too insidious, despicable, cunning and shameless!
The pursuers still did not let them go, and each time they stayed they could not stay for too long. Just when they could catch their breath, they had to embark on the road of escape again.
Even if they were on the road to escape, they couldn't escape for long, because not far ahead was the endless sea.
"Dad, what should we do next?"
"Yeah, big brother, this isn't a solution!"
One stone caused a thousand ripples. Everyone became a little impatient and confused, and started to agree with it.
"We have to find a way!"
"It's best to return to Jiangning as soon as possible. As long as we return to Jiangning, everything will be fine!"
"Yes, yes! Go back to Jiangning!"
"A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him. We must go back first and take revenge later!"
Su Huai's brows were tightly furrowed. Of course he wanted to return to Jiangning, but at this point, the only way to go back was by sea.
Although they were born as pirates, they had never sailed on the sea, let alone knew the sea routes. Moreover, they could not just get a random boat and sail on the sea. They might be destroyed by a storm.
Su Huai gritted his teeth. He had no choice but to give it a try.
Without taking time to rest, he immediately led his men to escape, robbed a large ship in Zhoushan, and set out to sea in a hurry.
When Zheng Sangge's men caught up, more than an hour had passed since Su Huai's ship left the dock. The sea was vast, and it was not easy to find them, so they had to withdraw their troops with regret.
This battle shocked the whole world, and countless eyes were cast towards Huaixi Province.
Shao Yunduan immediately led his men to Hangzhou City to calm the people.
At this point, Hangzhou City and a large area including Shaoxing, Ningbo, Zhoushan and others all belonged to Huaixi Province.
After more than a month of hard work, everything finally settled down.
All of Qin Wuyou's troops were incorporated into the Huaixi Army. Zheng Sangge led his troops to garrison Hangzhou City. Qin Wuyou followed Shao Yunduan back to the provincial capital. After a while, he should garrison the Jinhua City area.
A civil servant named Zhang Wenshu stayed in Hangzhou to replace the prefect of Hangzhou and manage local affairs.
Zhang Wenshu came to Huaixi from outside the province. He was rescued and brought back by people who went out to receive refugees. He was originally a juren, but he failed the imperial examination three times. Later, he became a staff member in the local government. After a few years, he returned home because of a disagreement with his employer.
