The rise of the poor

Chapter 2158: Battle (6)

Chasing the pirates to the north, with hundreds of corpses lying on the ground, the short distance of two hundred meters became the Japanese pirates' lingering nightmare.

Fortunately, the battlefield was not far from their temporary camp, only about 200 meters away. Fortunately, they ran faster than their Japanese friends, so they saved their lives.

Didn’t you see that those real Japanese with short legs and those Japanese friends who ran slowly were caught up by the Zhejiang Army and stabbed to death?

Although the Japanese friends were all wearing armor, they could not withstand being chased and stabbed by three or five Zhejiang soldiers.

What's more, many Japanese friends threw away their weapons and armor in order to run faster, and they were in a miserable state when they were caught up by the Zhejiang army.

They were all stabbed into bloody gourds!

"Hurry, hurry and bring reinforcements, the Zhejiang Army is coming! The Zhejiang Army is coming!" The Japanese pirates fled into the temporary camp crying for help.

Fortunately, the Zhejiang army chased for two hundred meters and stopped just within an arrow's reach of the Japanese pirates' temporary camp. This made the defeated Japanese pirates who had fled into the camp breathe a sigh of relief. They thanked their eighteen generations of ancestors for their protection and finally saved their lives.

The defeated Japanese pirates sat down on the ground, gasping for breath. They were tired and scared of surviving a disaster.

Just a little bit, just a little bit, and they would have lost their lives!

Xue Tao, with disheveled hair, was also carried by two bodyguards into the temporary camp, still in shock.

Seeing that the Zhejiang army had indeed stopped chasing him, Xue Tao finally calmed down. However, when he looked around, he saw that there were only about two hundred Japanese pirates who had escaped, and each of them was in a miserable state, like a broken-back dog.

Outside the temporary camp, the Zhejiang soldiers stopped chasing. Behind them were the corpses of the Japanese pirates lying all over the place, and the Japanese pirate captives kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, one in the east, one in the west, one in front, and one behind.

The soldiers of the Zhejiang Army tied up the Japanese pirates who were kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy one by one with ropes like tying up dogs, and tied them into a chain.

There were also many Zhejiang soldiers cleaning the battlefield, and they skillfully cut off the heads of the dead Japanese pirates with their beheading knives.

Each of them was like an elegant butcher, and the entire battlefield was filled with blood, like a slaughterhouse.

The lightly injured Japanese pirates were also tied up in a chain by the Zhejiang Army like dogs.

As for the seriously injured captives, the Zhejiang Army ordered the Japanese pirates to be carried away. According to Liu Dadao's opinion, these seriously injured captives should be freed with a knife, but Zhu Ping'an gave an order that in this battle, seriously injured captives could not be executed. The Japanese pirates were ordered to be carried to the Zhejiang Army camp for treatment. As for whether they could survive, that depended on them.

The reason why Zhu Ping'an ordered that the seriously injured captives should not be executed but carried back to the camp for treatment was that he wanted to save them for the Japanese pirates in the temporary Japanese pirate camp to see.

Let them know that being a prisoner of the Zhejiang Army is actually quite good. The Zhejiang Army is very humane and treats prisoners well.

In this way, when there is a major war in the future, the resistance of the Japanese pirates can be reduced. If they are defeated, those who should surrender will surrender, because the Zhejiang army will treat prisoners well anyway.

"I thought the Zhejiang Army would stab all the wounded to death to save the waste of medicine and manpower, as well as food and silver. I didn't expect the Zhejiang Army to be so nice. They actually carried them back and treated their wounds."

"If it were us, the minor injuries would be fine, but the seriously injured ones would all be stabbed to death to save food waste."

Many Japanese pirates who were watching the battle in their temporary camp couldn't help but whisper when they saw how the Zhejiang army treated the Japanese pirates who were rewarded heavily.

They were deeply touched by the Zhejiang Army's actions.

Many Japanese pirates then came up with this idea: "If we really have no other options when fighting with the Zhejiang army in the future, we will not fight to the death with them. Being a prisoner is not bad. At least we can save our lives. As long as we have a safe place, we will not have to worry about having no firewood."

"Look at General Xue, his hair is disheveled, like a stray dog ​​with a broken back."

"Keep your voice down! Are you looking for death? If he hears you, he will kill you."

"He still has the nerve to mess with me? He still has the nerve to mess with me even after he's already failed like this. If it were me, I would have hit my head against a wall and died!"

Many of the Japanese pirates watching around pointed and mocked Xue Tao and other Japanese pirates who had fled back to the camp.

Hearing the discussions around him, Xue Tao looked at his own side, then at the battlefield.

awful!

It's so tragic!

Thinking back to the harmonious and high-spirited days before the war, with the thousand Japanese pirates under his command, elite and brave, as fierce as tigers, but in less than a minute they ended up in this situation.

"After such a disastrous defeat, how can I face the king? I am incompetent and can only die to atone for my sins!"

Filled with grief, Xue Tao could not help but draw out her Japanese sword, closed her eyes, and wiped it hard on her neck.

"No general!"

When his personal guards saw this, they shouted in panic and tried to snatch the Japanese sword from Xue Tao's hand.

He finally snatched the Japanese sword from Xue Tao's hand at the critical moment, but a bloody mark was still left on Xue Tao's neck.

"Why are you stopping me? I have been defeated so miserably today. How can I face the king? I am so ashamed. Now, the only option left is death." Xue Tao's old face turned red and white, and she was so ashamed that she could not contain herself.

At this moment, he really wanted to die!

He really didn't have the face to meet Wang Zhi. Of course, he was even less ashamed to meet Mao Haifeng. He didn't know how Mao Haifeng would humiliate him.

You can imagine it by listening to the taunts around you.

After all, he had ridiculed Mao Haifeng and Otomo Sadakawa in various ways yesterday. Neither of them would tolerate humiliation. How could they not ridicule and humiliate him? !

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Especially now, he is not as good as Mao Haifeng. Mao Haifeng and his men only have half of their strength left. As for him, there are only more than 200 Japanese pirates left out of the 1,000. Moreover, if the battlefield was not close to the temporary camp of the Japanese pirates, they would have fled into the camp at the first time. The Zhejiang Army only chased them for more than 200 meters. If they were allowed to pursue them, they would probably be wiped out, and even Xue Tao would become a prisoner of the Zhejiang Army.

When I think of his various confident claims before the war, such as how Zhu Ping'an would forget his own limitations if he defeated Mao Haifeng and the others, how he would not know the directions of east, south, west, and north, how I would not be named Xue if I did not beat Zhu Ping'an to the point that he doubted his life, how I would fight Zhu Ping'an as a gift to the king, and how he would see our true strength, how Haifeng, my nephew, open your eyes and watch carefully, and see how I will avenge you, how Haifeng, my nephew, open your eyes and learn carefully, and you will benefit a lot in the future...

Now, every smug word turned into a loud slap in the face.

a slap

two slaps

Countless slaps fell on Xue Tao's face one after another.

The pointing, mocking and talking from all around turned into loud slaps on Xue Tao's face.

So shameful!

I am so embarrassed!

Xue Tao, overwhelmed with shame, spat out a mouthful of blood. He was so angry that his eyes went dark and he passed out. (End of this chapter)
