Honglou: This bastard is too persuasive.

Chapter 374 Send Away the Noblemen
Jia Lu had wanted to deal with these people before, but he kept them for a while because he knew they were going to attack the Jia family. Now that their plan has succeeded and the Jia family has been sent away, he should close the net. There is no need for these people to stay, so he went straight to the point and spoke bluntly, which immediately broke down these people's defenses.

"General, how can we be blamed for this? Someone leaked the news, so we encountered such an accident. If the news hadn't been leaked, how could we have been wiped out? This matter should be blamed on those who leaked the news. Otherwise, we would be absolutely fine."

"That's right, General. You can ask our entire team. The one who got into trouble this time is all of us. So, all of us are being targeted by the enemy. How could they know our intelligence? The simple reason is that they are targeting us."

"This incident is really not our fault. Someone leaked the information. Therefore, the person who leaked the information should be punished the most. Please understand, General."

They all expressed their dissatisfaction, and even felt that the reason for their failure was because someone leaked the information. Unfortunately, they didn't know that all this was just their fantasy. Even Jia Lu knew that they blamed everything on him, but he had evidence.

Soon, he brought dozens of people, and behind these dozens of people, there were hundreds of people tied up. When all these people were brought here, the young masters were a little confused, because they had some impression of the dozens of people in front, but they just couldn't remember them.

Fortunately, they no longer needed to recognize these people at this time, as someone had already explained the identities of these people to them while listening to what the man said.

"I think you all have some impression of the dozens of people in front. They are all the people in your team who escaped, but they couldn't find a ship after leaving, so we rescued them and transported them back. At the same time, after rescuing them, we also investigated along the way and found that the entire coastal area had been defended by the enemy. The hundreds of people behind are the spies we captured."

"Based on the information from both sides, we can be sure that you were discovered by these people after you landed on the island, and then the news was passed to General Wan. After General Wan determined your route, he arranged for people to set out from behind and surrounded you and captured you in one fell swoop. So the person who leaked the information did not really cause you any harm, but your carelessness."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask your subordinates. If you still don't believe me, you can ask the 100 people. If what I said has any solution, you will be punished. So the problem is you, not others."

After he finished speaking, Jia Zheng also stood up, sighed deeply, shook his head and said to them.

"I have personally inquired about this matter, and it is indeed true. The reason you were discovered and exposed is because you were not careful enough. And it was not just one or two people who were careless, but everyone was careless. First of all, you were discovered but you didn't know it. Secondly, others discovered you, but you didn't discover others."

"What's even more unacceptable is that you are so stupid. Only a few of you came back out of thousands of people. I am so disappointed. If you could have brought back more people, I would have forgiven you. However, you left your men behind after one trip. I really can't afford a leader like you."

"I don't want you to send my soldiers away every time you go out. If they are dragged out to die by you in batches, I will doubt whether you are my people or the enemy's." "Instead of torturing each other, it is better for us to part ways in peace. This time, I will report to the general truthfully. How should I be punished for your mistakes? This time, I will leave the decision to the general. I will not punish you, but what kind of punishment you will receive after you return is a matter between you and the general."

"But there is one thing I must make clear to you. From now on, you and I have nothing to do with defeating the garrison. Go back to where you came from. Don't make me break off relations with you."

Jia Wei has said so much, if those noble children still don’t understand, they are fools. Moreover, the intelligence has been obtained, and there are so many people who can testify to it, which means that the information has not been leaked to them, but they are just not cautious enough.

Thinking of this, their faces turned pale and blue. They didn't expect that they would be defeated by themselves. The reason why they were so embarrassed was that they thought it was themselves. This was a result that they could not accept no matter what.

But the reality has already happened, and no matter how unwilling they are, they have no choice but to accept it, so the most critical issue now is what choice they should make next.

They also wanted to stay, but what was the point of staying? After this incident, if they stayed, they would be very embarrassed in this military camp. Even if they were assigned soldiers, would these people listen to them?
Looking at the soldiers around him and the contempt and disdain in their eyes, he could understand that if these people were assigned to his command, none of them would listen to him.

They were not fools, and they even understood that if these people came to their side, they would definitely be afraid of danger. If they abandoned them, they would be careless and it might cause great danger. The chance of death would also greatly increase if they stayed. So they figured it out after just a while.

If they stayed, the threat of death would increase and they would not be welcomed. In that case, why not go back? After they go back, no one will know what happened here, and they may still have a chance. So at this moment, the leader stood up and said.

"Thank you, General, for your tolerance of this incident. It was indeed our fault and our lack of caution that caused such a huge loss. Therefore, I personally feel that I am no longer worthy of this position and no longer worthy of staying in the Pi Island garrison. So I apply to return to the general's command. After that, I will accept any punishment."

With the first person speaking, the others naturally knew what to choose. They would be able to survive any punishment if they went back, but staying might cost them their lives, and none of their subordinates wanted to stay, so there was no need for them to speak up one by one and prepare to leave.

In this way, whether it was the Jia family or the noble children, they were all easily dealt with by Jia Lu.
