Zhang Chong did not receive the prisoner Sun Jin, even though he was the city guard of this great city in Hebei.

But Zhang Chong also gave Sun Jin a chance and recognized that this person was loyal and open-minded, so he asked Xun You to come forward to persuade him to surrender.

Xun You did not know this scholar from the border area, but it did not hinder his respect for this man.

When he arrived at the camp, he saw that Sun Jin was still calm and composed, showing no fear of being in the enemy's camp. Xun You was greatly impressed.

He stepped forward and poured a pot of warm wine for Sun Jin, then introduced himself.

Sun Jin had obviously heard of Xun You's name. Looking at Xun You, his eyes were filled with surprise and doubt. Finally, he couldn't help but ask:

"Mr. Xun was also coerced into becoming a thief?"

Xun You smiled, not embarrassed, but said calmly:

"Sun Jun, I entered on my own initiative, not because I was coerced?"

Sun Jin obviously couldn't believe it. He opened his mouth and finally gave up speaking.

But Xun You said it for him:

"Does Mr. Sun think that you are ungrateful and shameless, and that you don't know how to be loyal to the emperor and the country, so you have disgraced your family and become a traitor?"

Sun Jin didn't say anything, but that was definitely what he meant.

Xun You sighed, sat cross-legged next to Sun Jin, and asked:

"In this world, it's really hard to say who is a thief and who is a righteous person."

Sun Jin said angrily:

"I think you are out of your mind. The emperor of the Han Dynasty is a righteous man, and the moth and thieves are thieves and bandits. What's so difficult to distinguish? My descendants of the Xun family are all gentlemen, but I didn't expect that there is such a fool as you.

That's right, how could you vote for the Grass-headed King if you're not stupid? You're so stupid!"

After being scolded by Sun Jin, Xun You stopped facing him, mainly because his saliva really sprayed on his face.

Xun You turned his face to one side and said calmly:

"I used to think so. Later I saw that it was the Han army that plundered and harmed the people, and it was also the Han army that was corrupted. But the Taishan army, which I once regarded as thieves, saved the people, protected the people, and provided

How can we find a way for them to survive?"

Sun Jin dismissed it and snorted:

"The truth? Killing officials and rebelling is the truth? If you have grievances, you can appeal. Of course I know that some Han officials torture the people like tigers and wolves, but there are still countless Han officials who are self-denial and serve the public, and are pure officials. If you ask these people to make the decision, why can't you appeal?

"

It was only then that Xun You sneered:

"Hey, I know Mr. Sun is an honest gentleman, but I didn't expect to say this. It can be seen that Mr. Sun is either really confused or pretending to be confused. Forget it, I'm here to persuade Mr. Sun whether he is willing to be with me.

The army will work together to punish the people and eradicate the filthy. But since the words are not speculative, I will not persuade you anymore. You think about it yourself!"

After saying that, Xun You looked disappointed and was about to leave the account.

Over there, Sun Jin was beaten by Xun You, and her face turned red with embarrassment.

In fact, he had no confidence in front of Xun You. Behind his loyalty to a poor family member, he had deep fear and envy for the high family.

So at first, Sun Jin was distracted by Xun's name and kept silent. Later, when she saw how humble Xun You was, she subconsciously took the big shot.

The reason behind this thought is probably rebellion against inferiority complex.

After all, those who can treat people and things with a normal heart are probably sages.

But now when she saw this young man Xun You turning around and leaving, Sun Jin felt a sense of unwillingness to be underestimated. But he was also a person, and he knew that if he asked again, he would look shallow, so he replied abruptly.

:

"Victory and defeat are normal for a military. What can I say now that the situation has reached this point? I am captured at a loss and you ask me if I will surrender. Then I will ask the first question of your traitor. If I capture him alive, can he surrender to me?

No? If he can surrender, I will surrender."

Xun You turned around and looked at the stubborn Sun Jin, smiled, and then respectfully left.

Xun You later relayed these words to Zhang Chong.

But at this moment, Zhang Chong had no intention of playing tricks on Sun Jin. A military report had just been sent from the front line in the city. The troops entering the city were blocked in front of the inner city. The resistance in the inner city was fierce and they failed to defeat them.

Zhang Chong was extremely anxious at this moment because he was under greater pressure than all the generals.

At this moment, those who are interested will find that Marshal Zhang Dan of the right army is not in the army. At the same time, four flying cavalry troops and five infantry battalion leaders disappeared.

Where did they go?

Of course they were going to block enemy reinforcements.

Zhang Chong had already been grinding under Zhending City for a month before. If he couldn't take the inner city this time, would he have to grind for another month?

If he doesn't capture Zhending as soon as possible and then enter the city to rest, he will be at a strategic disadvantage later when the Yan soldiers go south for a decisive battle.

Therefore, the ownership of Zhending is already related to the entire Northern Expedition.

After Zhang Chong listened to Xun You's report, he first asked:

"Is there a good chance that Sun Jin can persuade the Han soldiers to surrender in the inner city?"

Xun You thought for a moment, and although his true intention was to keep Sun Jin alive, he knew that Sun Jin really wouldn't do what the king asked.

So Xun You shook his head.

Zhang Chong was silent for a while and said regretfully:

"This Sun Jin is a loyal minister and a man of integrity. In normal times, I would have killed him, but now I can only be loyal."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Chong said to Guo Zuda beside him:

"Go and give Sun Jin a gift in white satin. If he has any requirements, please satisfy him."

Guo Zu sang, and then left quickly.

At this time, Xun You wanted to persuade him, but Zhang Chong took the initiative to speak:

"This is the wrong time. Now I want to use Sun Jin's head to open up the inner city. That's it."

Xun You knew that the king had made up his mind, so he could only sigh and said to himself:

"Sun Jun, it's not that you didn't help you, it's that you missed the opportunity."

What is destiny in fact? It is determined by each person's choice.

Sun Jin didn't know what his fate was, but he knew it when he saw a strange soldier grabbing Bai Ling.

Although he was a little panicked, he was not afraid of death. He looked at Bai Ling and laughed at himself:

"I never thought that I, Sun Jin, would be just a fighting official when I was alive, but when I died, I would be treated like a prince, no less."

After hearing this, Guo Zu was indifferent and said firmly:

"I'm here to give you a treat! Tell me if you have any last wishes. Your Majesty will be gracious and I will grant it to you."

Sun Jin laughed sadly, then said solemnly:

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I, Sun Jin, do have some requests. I pride myself on being an innocent person, and I don't want to be dirty and see the great ancestor. I wonder if you can give me a basin of water so that I can wash up a little."

This request was not troublesome. Guo Zu nodded in agreement and asked the halberd warriors outside to bring a basin of water in.

Sun Jin did not directly scoop out the water, but first arranged her clothes, then took out a handkerchief from her pocket, and then after soaking it in water, she carefully wiped the dirt on her face.

Human beings tend to have a sense of sacredness towards the extreme.

At this time, Guo Zu saw this feeling in Sun Jin's body. When a person was about to die, he used his own kerchief to clean it carefully. It was very slow, but it had a different kind of beauty.

Soon, Sun Jin washed up and laughed loudly. Then he asked Guo Zu:

"Where is the west?"

Guo Zu pointed in the direction.

Then Sun Jin gave him three bucks and asked again:

"Where is north?"

Guo Zu pointed in the direction again.

Sun Jin gave the North three more heads.

When everything was over, Sun Jin said calmly:

"Hurry up and send me on my way, I still have to chase those dead people!"

After saying that, close your eyes and wait for death.

But Guo Zu, who shouldn't have done anything himself, was taken away by Sun Jin's aura before he died. He stepped forward and wrapped the white satin around his neck. With a little force, he strangled Sun Jin without letting him suffer.

Finally, looking at Sun Jin who had a withered face, Guo Zu sighed:

"This is a chastity man."

Then Guo Zu asked people to bury Sun Jin, clean up some of the feces and urine, and prepare a good coffin.

After explaining this, Guo Zu went to return to his life.
