Chapter 224 Time and Thieves

"General Han, Wanyan Zongbi sent a letter asking us to surrender, and he promised that he would let you be promoted to a noble rank." The former confidant who was kneeling under the tent didn't even dare to lift his head when he said this.

Han Shizhong listened to him silently, his face livid.

The war at sea ended quickly with an unimaginable ending, which caught everyone on the shore by surprise.

The elite who followed Zhao Gou to the south of the Yangtze River have all boarded the boat. Judging from the situation of the battle, they must have been fed to the fish.

His own general Wang Yuan and the Guan family also boarded the boat and went out to sea. According to Tan Ma's report, their small fleet of ten ships was also intercepted by monsters in the sea to the north. In the end, even the ships were killed by Chen Thief last night. Pulled away.

Now the largest official in the former Song Dynasty on shore has become himself-Han Shizhong.

"Sanlang, do you understand? What on earth caused all our warships to be defeated and captured?" Han Shizhong ignored the young general kneeling under the tent. He knew clearly that this young general must have accepted some promise from the Jin man, and perhaps even accepted it. The golden man’s money.

In Han Shizhong's heart, the young general has already been sentenced to death, and he will be dealt with after his value is used up, lest he become a traitor in the Song Dynasty.

"General, some fishing boats that were lucky enough to dock reported that many octopuses more than ten feet long suddenly appeared in the sea, endless. All the boats in that sea area yesterday could not escape." Saburo replied.

"Could it be that this thief Chen is really good at magic?" Han Shizhong muttered.

"General Han, what should we do next?" Several young generals in the tent looked confused. They chose to stay because they wanted to fight against the Jin and Chen in Hebei for the Song Dynasty.

But now the country of song was taken over by Chen thief at sea, and for a while, their loyalty had no target.

No wonder the teenager kneeling in the middle chose to surrender to the golden man.

"Yeah, what should we do next?" Han Shizhong was also very confused.

He was loyal throughout his life and never imagined that his life would reach this point.

This feeling of confusion made his extraordinary martial arts useless.

"How about we listen to what the Jin man has to say first?" Someone tried to say, and the young general kneeling on the ground immediately looked at him gratefully.

"Impossible, even if I die, I will not surrender to the Jin people." Han Shizhong's veto was Jin Jietie's, which made the young general lower his head in frustration.

"General, no matter what decision you make, our five hundred brothers will follow you." A loyal subordinate assured.

Now the Song army on the shore only has Han Shizhong's 1 elite soldiers left. The other more than [-] are auxiliary troops recruited from Daming Mansion. They have completed their mission by sending Song Ting here. Most of them will follow. They will all choose to go home, and a very small number may be recruited by various rebel armies and Jin armies.

Soldiers eat food. In these troubled times, there are many people who choose to join the army just to have a full meal.

"General, someone claims to be the envoy of the Chen family army and is asking for an audience outside the tent." A guard set up the tent and came in to report.

"Chen Jiajun? What do they want to do?"

"Could it be that he was also trying to persuade you to surrender?"

"Don't talk about it, let him come in and listen to it." Han Shizhong said.

"Yes!" The guard turned around and went out, and soon brought in a young man wearing a Song Army uniform. "General Han, you're fine!" The young man said to Han Shizhong, looking very familiar with him.

"I think you look very familiar. Do we know each other?" Han Shizhong asked. In his memory, he must have dealt with this young man before, but he just couldn't remember the details.

"General Han, a noble man, forgets things a lot. I used to be a small grain transport officer under General Wang, and I have delivered grain to you several times." The young man replied.

"Did you vote for traitor Chen?" Han Shizhong looked unkind, and with the young general still kneeling under the tent, he met two traitors one after another today, which was very unlucky.

"No, I am originally from Dengzhou. Five years ago, my hometown was invaded by gold thieves, and all my family members were killed. Only my two young siblings were left. They were about to starve to death on the roadside, but they were rescued by Chenjiazhuang at that time. The young man told his story in a leisurely manner: "Later, when he grew up, in order to repay the kindness of saving his life, he returned to Hebei incognito and joined the Song army."

"So, I didn't vote for the Chen Jiajun, because I am a member of the Chen Jiajun."

"What's the difference? He's also a thief." Han Shizhong said disdainfully.

"There is a difference. Thieves are only for themselves, selfish. I am different. Although I am a thief, I am not for myself." The young man replied.

"Then who are you for? For Chen Thief?" Han Shizhong asked.

The young man frowned slightly after hearing this.

Han Shizhong had called Chen Jiajun "Chen Thief" before, but he could barely accept it. After all, everyone was his own master.But now hearing him call Chen Xun a thief, it was very hard to accept.

"General Han, do you know Chen Jiajun?" the young man asked back.

"How about understanding? So what if you don't understand?" Han Shizhong's words showed that he actually didn't know much.

"Let's not mention how good the new law of the military government is for the common people. Let's talk about what the Song Dynasty did in resisting the Jin Dynasty? And what did the Chen thief you said did? Does General Han know?" The young man because of Han Shizhong The words offended Chen Xun, and his tone became sharper when he asked back.

This question is really difficult to answer for Song soldiers like Han Shizhong who are determined to resist the Jin Dynasty.

Because the Song Dynasty's performance in resisting the Jin Dynasty was really unsatisfactory.

"It seems that General Han knows." Seeing that Han Shizhong was silent and did not answer, the young man continued to ask: "I wonder who dug up the Yellow River and displaced tens of millions of people in the Huaihe River Basin? And who traveled thousands of miles north to rescue these people? Are there millions of victims?"

The military tent continued to be quiet.

"Who gave his wife, children, and wealth to the Jin people? Fearing that it would not be enough, he ransacked the Kaifeng mansion, causing countless Han family children to be persecuted by the Jin people. And who took Kaifeng back and rescued the people of Kaifeng?"

"Who ignored the misery of the people in Hebei and insisted on going south to seek refuge. To achieve his goal, he did not hesitate to form an alliance with the Jin people who killed his father and lure the wolf into the house? And who traveled thousands of miles in a boat to come here and wiped out the Jin and Goryeo countries? The country’s navy?”

"General, who do you think, Chen Jiajun or Song Ting, is for the people? Who is the thief?"

"Since you are capable and can do these things as loyal ministers of the Song Dynasty, why do you want to rebel?" someone argued.

"Can the Zhao and Song Dynasty courts support Adou like that of Ji Han?" The young man directly responded with a rhetorical question, blocking the follow-up words of the sophistry.

"Okay, don't argue." Han Shizhong saw that the more questions he was asked, the more unreasonable he was. If he continued to ask questions, he might have become evil people who helped the tyrants to commit evil, so he directly interrupted the young man's next question and introduced the topic. Topic: "Then what are you planning to do when you come here this time?"
