Chapter 144 - General VS General

Chapter 144 - General VS General

Translated by Bloodfalcon, Edited by Krayto

“Where is your general Jiang?!” Sun Ce was asking his soldiers after his soldiers through the naval HQ. This naval HQ was constructed by him, so saying that he broke Wancheng city naval HQ is a bit of an irony. Breaking into your own naval HQ.

From his flagship, Sun Ce can see Wancheng city, the place that once belonged to him.

Jiang Qin really did not disappoint Sun Ce, in less than half day, the entire naval HQ was broken through although at the cost of several of meng chong ships.

“General Jiang is pursuing the enemy's general!” The nearby Jiang Qin's elites replied to Sun Ce.

“In pursuit?!” Sun Ce's brow wrinkled. This is truly violating military standard operation. The standard practice after one broke through a base is that general who managed to breakthrough needed to do sweeping to clean up the entire base and prepare food for the entire army, only after doing that one can do pursue, but Jiang Qin unexpectedly was in pursuit after breaking through the naval HQ. What if he ran into an ambush?

Seeing that his lord's complexion was not good, those soldiers quickly added “General Jiang was pursuing the enemy's senior general!”

“Enemy senior general?!” Sun Ce quickly understood the matter. For this offense, Sun Ce also did not blame Jiang Qin. After all Jiang Qin is Zhou Tai's younger brother. Zhou Tai's death really made Jiang Qin's heart broken and he had been suppressing the anger all this time and also it is Sun Ce's fault for signing Zhou Tai's death warrant, so naturally he will treat Jiang Qin very kindly and will also make Jiang Qin a vanguard this time.

“Take me to the location!” Sun Ce is also curious to see who in the end this naval veteran is, as he has vowed to take one of Lu Bu’s army naval general.

POV back to Su Fei and Jiang Qin

“Haaahhhh, haahhhh, haaahhhhh!!!!” Su Fei's two-edged sword had blood dripping from the tip, the entire sword’s surface was crimson red. Su Fei had no more time to clean his sword and was already huffing. Jiang Qin, in order to see through Su Fei's skills, allowed his own men to be killed by Su Fei. On the side of Su Fei, many elites had already fallen, Su Fei himself also did not feel much better. His back and his arm was already slashed by those elite’s swords and his bone was showing.

“Already saw through my secret, eh, Jiang Qin?!” Su Fei sneered toward Jiang Qin. His swordsmanship that he kept a secret until now was reveled in front of Jiang Qin. Those soldiers that Jiang Qin's sacrificed truly was worth it for revealing the flaw in his swordsmanship.

“SU FEI, YOU DIE NOW!!!!” Jiang Qin screamed. The casualties of his own elites also pained his heart, because he trained them himself, but they died in Su Fei's hand, but Jiang Qin's also relieved because he is not the one who died.

“SHAAAA!!!!” Jiang Qin roared and sped away toward Su Fei, he must bury his long sword inside Su Fei's body for the first step of his revenge.

“COME ON!!!” Su Fei finally saw Jiang Qin in action again. Su Fei was actually afraid that he will die under Jiang Qin's elite, Su Fei will not allow his pride to die under a nameless soldier.

Su Fei quickly brandished his two-edged sword again and started thrusting toward Jiang Qin. A Two-edged sword's speed is quicker than long sword, so Su Fei made the initiative to thrust Jiang Qin's heart.

“General, be careful!!!” One of Jiang Qin's elite shouted. That elite that had seen this move over and over again, Su Fei managed to kill many of his comrades with it.

“YOUR MOVES ARE USELESS NOW!!!” Jiang Qin laughed, he already did not need any warnings. He already discovered Su Fei's thrust path. This move made a straight line to the heart, it is a sure-kill move with frightening precision. Those without good speed, will not be able to respond against this move.

Although Jiang Qin's speed cannot be compared with Su Fei's, as long as one found the path naturally, they will not fear as he will be able to defend or avoid against it.

“Clang!!!” The two-edged sword and long sword handle are clashing with each other and sending many sparks.

“HUMPH!!!” Su Fei just humphed coldly and change his move and continue to aim for Jiang Qin's neck.

“I ALREADY SAID, YOUR MOVES ARE USELESS AGAINST ME NOW!!!” Jiang Qin suddenly turn back a step to dodge the fatal move. The two-edged sword is hitting nothing but air.

Su Fei's sword then changed its direction and angle, even trying to attack Jiang Qin's other non-vital spots but every single one of his strike was parried by him.

“MY TURN!!!” Jiang Qin said full of confidence. A two-edged sword can only be used for self-defense. If you want to kill people in battlefield, one should use long sword, spear or guan dao for maximum result.

Jiang Qin quickly pressured Su Fei with his long sword, his strike is so hard that its sound was reverberating in the sky.

Su Fei now can only defend. Jiang Qin's strike made Su Fei's hand almost break. At this time he is unable to find any openings to strike back and can only retreat backwards.

“HAAAHHH, HAAAHHH, HAAAAHHHHH!!!!” Su Fei's hand was bleeding profusely and he is almost unable to hold his sword again. If he is hit with that strike again, then it is the end of him.

“What's wrong huh?! Already lost courage huh?!” Jiang Qin approached Su Fei step by step. Su Fei in reaction also move back step by step, he wanted to rest a bit, otherwise it is impossible to defend against the next attack.

“Oh, Su Fei, I will tell you what I am going to do now!!! I WILL KILL YOU SLOWLY, I WILL CUT YOUR MEAT AND COOK IT INTO A DISH ALONG WITH YOUR MEN, AND I MUST RECIPROCATE YOUR LORD LU BU'S “GOOD PRESENT”!!! I WANT THIS TO BE A MESSAGE THAT THIS JIANG QIN IS EAGER TO BURY HIM ALONG WITH ALL OF HIS SOLDIERS FOR MY BROTHER!!!” Jiang Qin exclaimed loudly.

Jiang Qin's face is full of hatred. Zhou Tai's death made him lose half of himself. If Zhou Tai only died in battle honorably, perhaps Jiang Qin will not be this angry, but Liu Mang cooked him into meatloaf and sent it to his lord Sun Ce, this is the last straw on Jiang Qin's patience and sanity.

“Your elder brother?!” Su Fei understood immediately. Zhou Tai who had killed a lot of the Urban Army soldiers in Wancheng city is Jiang Qin's older brother. His little lord, Liu Mang, in order to relieve his rage angrily ordered that Zhou Tai is to be beheaded and hung above Wancheng city and also he ordered that Zhou Tai's body to be cooked into meatloaf and sent to Sun Ce.

That kind of matter that Liu Mang did made Su Fei a punching bag now. Su Fei smiled bitterly. If Zhou Tai was not treated this way, then this Jiang Qin will probably let him go now.

“Oh, you mean that meatloaf, eh? Hahaha, the taste is really good. Have you tasted it?!” Su Fei is a scholar, so it would be impossible for him to be suppressed by Jiang Qin's words.

“TASTE....GOOD?!” Su Fei's word “really good” made Jiang Qin's face very grim. That meatloaf dish is his elder brother and this bastard actually said it “taste good”. DAMMIT.

Su Fei then continued his insult “OH, why did you not eat it?! Oh right, that meatloaf was for your lord, so you are unable to taste it! Let me tell you, you need to eat that meatloaf. Eating that meatloaf will surely grant you the strength of its owner!!! I GUARANTEE IT!!!”

“SU FEI, I WILL KILL YOU!!!” Jiang Qin's eyes are bloodshot. His brother died by Lu Bu's army. Not only did Zhou Tai not leave any bones to bury, but his body was also made into meatloaf and this bastard actually kept encouraging him to eat that dish. Jiang Qin's anger hit its max and was steaming wanting slash Su Fei again.

“AAAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!” Jiang Qin's slash becoming heavier. The elite troops nearby pondered “Is this enemy general already asking for death? He is already lost, but he unexpectedly enraged our general! This general will die with a lot of pain!!!”

Su Fei started to receive a wound every time he tried to parry Jiang Qin's slash and soon enough, both of his hands started to bleed profusely.

“Poof!!!” Su Fei's right shoulder was slashed by Jiang Qin. A lump of flesh that was once located at his shoulder, now fell down at his side.

“ARGH!!!” Su Fei screamed painfully. That wound almost reached his bone. One now can see his blood vessels bone which started to become red because of the blood profusely flowing from the severed blood vessel.

“YES, IT IS LIKE THIS!!! I WANT TO SLOWLY CUT TO PIECES!!!!” When Jiang Qin saw that Su Fei was already severely injured, Jiang Qin became crazier with each of his slashes leaving no opening at all. Su Fei was now only left to ponder on why Jiang Qin was able to see through all of his movements, but he himself was unable to do same thing toward Jiang Qin.

Then Su Fei understood one simple truth, this Jiang Qin is much more skillful than himself.

“SLICE, SLICE!!!” Two of Su Fei's calf tendon was sliced off. Jiang Qin actually can kill him quickly but his long sword only kept cutting on Su Fei's tendons to torture him before death.

“Clang, clang, clang!!!” Su Fei is getting more and more wounds. In addition, all of his bodies ligaments are being severed here and there and the dizziness due to blood loss made Su Fei very light-headed.

“CLANG!!!” With that strike, Su Fei lost his two-edged sword and was now truly defenseless.

“SU FEI, NOW YOUR SLOW CUTTING BEGINS!!” Jiang Qin laughed happily. Su Fei was already weaponless and at any time will kick the bucket, this is Jiang Qin's victory now.

“DIE!!!” Jiang Qin now brandished his long sword again. This time, he must slowly cut Su Fei, he must cut down all of his organs one by one. He dared to eat his elder brother's meat, so he must pay the price.

“STOP!!!” In the distance, there is a person's voice bellowed through the air.

“Milord?!” Jiang Qin saw his lord is the one who shouted “stop”, but he was already resolved to not stop. He knows that his lord loved talented people and may spare Su Fei, but Jiang Qin will not allow this. He wanted Su Fei dead, so Jiang Qin quickened his long sword's slash.

“Whiz!!!” A piercing sound coming from Jiang Qin's back. A spear was thrown by Sun Ce from afar.

“Milord!!! You must not prevent me!!! I MUST AVENGE MY BROTHER!!!” Jiang Qin became crazier, he must kill Su Fei now.

“POOF!!!” A blood splash flowered in front of him.

“WHAT?!” Jiang Qin cannot believe his eyes.

“Clang!!!” Su Fei dropped his last weapon. That lance was not preventing Jiang Qin but preventing Su Fei's last strike. Jiang Qin quickly looked at Su Fei, he knows that Su Fei is weaponless but there is a dagger on his hand. He was already resolved to kill Jiang Qin with this dagger, but was prevented by Sun Ce and with that, all of his schemes ended. If only Sun Ce shouted again in response, then Jiang Qin will have died.

“HAHAHAHA!!!”

As Su Fei laid on his back, he can only laugh bitterly in order to suppress his pain.
