The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 365 Shocking News

"General, there seems to be a second half of what Emperor Taizu said." Zhao Tang said softly at this time.

Wanyan Zonghan looked at Zhao Tang, and asked doubtfully, "There's the second half of the sentence? Why haven't I heard of it before?"

Zhao Tang said with a smile: "Because most people only like to listen to and record half of things when they listen to things, and they choose what is closely related to themselves, or what they want to do, and finally formed this out-of-context interpretation of the true meaning. .”

Wanyan Zonghan nodded, Zhao Tang's words seemed very reasonable, and he asked, "It's just that what is the second half of what Emperor Taizu said?"

Zhao Tang said softly: "The second part of Emperor Taizu's sentence is very simple, he said: 'It is best not to let this beast wake up.'"

Zhao Tang's words stunned Wanyan Zonghan for a moment, and then he came to his senses, laughed loudly, and said to Zhao Tang: "Your words are trying to comfort me, aren't you?"

Zhao Tang quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, whether what the general said is true or not, you go back and look it up, and you will find out."

Although Wanyan Zonghan was still a little worried, he was very pleased with what Zhao Tang said. To be honest, the Jurchens have always lived in the extremely cold northern region. The hardship of this environment has also created their spirit of hard work. If the general direction is good, they will dare to pay more than ordinary people in order to achieve their destination.

"It's really like what you said, then we are heading in the right direction, and we should continue going." Wanyan Zonghan said to Zhao Tang.

Zhao Tang shook his head, and said to Wanyan Zonghan: "General, the last general doesn't mean that."

Wanyan Zonghan frowned and looked at Zhao Tang in front of him. Having said so much, Wanyan Zonghan thought he understood what Wanyan Zonghan meant, but he didn't expect Zhao Tang to say that he didn't mean it himself.

"Then what do you mean?" Wanyan Zonghan asked suspiciously.

Zhao Tang cleared his throat, and said to Wanyan Zonghan: "General, what Emperor Taizu said is that it is best to keep this beast from waking up forever, but what about the current situation?"

When Wanyan Zonghan heard Zhao Tang's explanation, he felt a "thump" in his heart, and then said to Zhao Tang: "You mean, the beast has woken up now?"

Zhao Tang didn't answer the question. This kind of statement was suspected of persuading surrender. As a smart person, he naturally knew what to say and what not to say, so he didn't continue talking at this time.

At this moment, a scout hurried over on horseback. Zhao Tang knew this scout, and Wanyan Zonghan ordered this scout to check the news of the two thousand death squads left by Wanyanhuo, but he didn't expect this person How did you come back so fast.

"Could it be that those [-] death squads have already died in battle?" This idea first appeared in Zhao Tang's mind, and then took root deeply, lingering.

"How is the situation with General Wanyanhuo?" Wanyan Zonghan asked eagerly when he saw the scout come back.

"Report to the Great General, General Wanyanhuo..."

"What happened to General Wanyanhuo?"

"General Wanyanhuo..." the scout stammered.

"What's going on, you should hurry up and talk, you are so hesitant, be careful that I will hit you." Wanyan Zonghan said a little angrily.

Hearing Wanyan Zonghan's order, the scout was taken aback, and hurriedly said to Wanyan Zonghan: "General, please forgive me. The villain just went to see it. The more than 2000 death squad members led by General Wanyanhuo have all fought. died."

"What did you say? They've all died in battle? Where's General Wanyan Huo?" Wanyan Zonghan said in disbelief, "Impossible, the Song Army only has [-] soldiers, while our army's death squad has more than [-] people. It's only been about a quarter of an hour, could it be that the death squads of our army have been wiped out by the Song army?"

The scout nodded.

"What about Wanyan Huo?" Wanyan Zonghan said while suppressing the anger in his heart. He handed over two thousand alive and kicking soldiers to Wanyan Zonghan's hands, but he never thought that they would be killed by the Song army in such a short time. It is normal for Yan Zonghan to be angry.

"Reporting to the general, General Wanyanhuo lost to the opposing general, and was stabbed to death by the general of the Song army!" The scout's voice choked up when he said this.

Hearing what the scouts said, Wanyan Zonghan felt as if his strength had been taken away, and he almost couldn't stand upright. If it wasn't for Zhao Tang who was standing next to him to support him quickly, then Wanyan Zonghan would really fall down. on the ground.

Wanyan Zonghan is really heartbroken. After all, Wanyanhuo has been following him since he joined the army. The relationship between the two is really good. I just heard that two thousand soldiers were taught by Song Jun in less than a quarter of an hour. Well, Wanyan Zonghan's first thought at this time was to call Wanyan Huo over to reprimand one party.

Unexpectedly, there were no more people.

"Report to the general..." Just as Wanyan Zonghan was still immersed in grief, a scout rushed over from a distance at this time.

"Say, what's the situation at Dongchengmen?" Wanyan Zonghan asked.

The scout paused, and said to Wanyan Zonghan: "General, 1 of the [-] soldiers led by General Wanyan Tang died heroically during the siege and the battle with the Song army." The scout said softly Said.

Hearing the news, Wanyan Zonghan raised his head subconsciously and asked, "What about the remaining [-] soldiers?"

"The remaining [-] soldiers..."

"Say it quickly, such ink stains!" Wanyan Zonghan said angrily.

"All surrendered the remaining soldiers!" the scout said bravely.

"Surrender...surrender...hehe!" Wanyan Zonghan kept chanting these two words in his mouth, then looked at Zhao Tang, and couldn't help but think of what Zhao Tang said just now.

If the male lion has not woken up, it is best not to let him wake up, so what if the male lion has woken up now?Wanyan Zonghan suddenly felt a burst of fear.

If the Song Dynasty really rises, it will be like the Tang Dynasty a hundred years ago, and the surrounding countries like Hanoi and other countries will obediently pay tribute to them. Is it true that the Jin Kingdom will be like Hanoi and other countries in the future, wanting the Song Dynasty to be a vassal? ?Even Yan Zonghan felt unacceptable after imagining it. This was a huge psychological gap, a reversal of the situation.

"How far is it from the Yellow River?" Wanyan Zonghan shook his head, shaking out all these emotions. No matter what, he had to get rid of Song Jun's pursuit before he could think about other things.
