Chapter 63 Escape(2/2)
Chen Zhong took the lead and said: "General, Zhenjiang City is in danger, you need to leave as soon as possible. I, Chen Zhong, will live and die with Zhenjiang City. I only ask General to avenge my brothers."
As he spoke, Chen Zhong knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately.
