Chapter 763: Good Weather for Murder

The south bank of the Yangtze River

Nearly fifteen thousand ironclad troops lined up, and they stood on the plain, looking like a whole piece of iron. A warrior with a blank face, the sharpest and most ruthless killing machine. Such an army is what anyone who leads a soldier can only dream of. In the age of swords, guns, and halberds, nothing seemed to be able to stop them from moving forward.

The Sui army behind has also been prepared, one by one the phalanx looks like tofu pieces cut out, if you can look down from the sky, you can fully feel the majesty of the army of more than 100,000 people.

Opposite the Sui army, General Luo had also finished arranging.

The sky was clear, there were no clouds and no wind.

What a good weather to kill.

Ye Jinnan glanced at Luo Tu who was riding a black war horse, and felt a slight pain in his heart. Today, before the war began, it was actually doomed, and these soldiers who had already finished the formation were all abandoned pawns. Luo Tu has already decided to retreat to Tonggu Academy, but if he retreats without fighting, he will not be able to explain to those people in Tonggu Academy.

So, it is destined that many people will die.

But they don't know.

"Lord ......"

Ye Jinnan shouted, but the words behind him couldn't be spoken.

Luo Tu squinted his eyes and glanced at him: "I know what you have to say, generals in the army, you are the most gentle and old, you are reluctant to let these people and horses go, but you should understand...... Why should I give up? You also know that if we don't have a decent defeat, it's hard for us to go back. The hundreds of thousands of horses gathered by Tonggu Academy are behind us, those bastards have already calculated, our people will not die, they will definitely not catch up. ”

"But ......"

Ye Jinnan said: "If we retreat, will the people of Tonggu Academy still lead troops to intercept it?" Fighting to the death is not a situation they want to see. ”

"That's right, they won't really fight against me, the number of troops that Tonggu Academy can mobilize now is only 300,000, and they still have to keep their troops to control Jiangdu, once Chang'an can't take it, Jiangdu will be the new capital...... So, those old guys aren't really going to fight me, but I don't want to fall out with them right now. ”

Luo Tu said: "So even if you are pretending, you have to behave deferentially." I'm going to step back and let those old guys fight with the people of the court. There is no such thing as perfection in this world, and if I don't throw something away myself, those people don't worry about me staying with them. ”

"Lord Wang"

Ye Jinnan persuaded: "Why do you need to look up to people? With our current strength, there is no need to retreat to the south to let go of the people and horses of the imperial court, you can go east, you can go west, there are only Yang Shunhui and two guards in the east, and there is no way to take us. The Black Flag Army in the west is not firmly established, and it may not be able to fight a situation, so why should it be entangled with the people of Tonggu Academy? ”

"Do you know why the people of the imperial court only stare at Jiangnan?"

Luo Tu asked.

Ye Jinnan was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know." ”

"When Emperor Yang Yi led his troops to conquer the northwest, Jiangnan was still peaceful, but after he was defeated in the northwest and ran back to Chang'an, the situation was chaotic. Since then, the court has been staring at Jiangnan. Jin Shixiong in the northwest, Gao Kaitai, Wang Yiqu, especially the latter two, have 200,000 soldiers and horses under their command, which is the closest to Gyeonggi Province, why didn't the people of the imperial court fight them first? ”

"That Fang Xie is tossing and turning the world upside down in the southwest, although he is still under the banner of the imperial court, but who can't see that his ambition is not small? As far as I know, even Wu Yiyi, who is traveling all over the world, is entangled with him, how harmful is it to the imperial court if two people join forces like this? But the court still didn't deal with him first! ”

Luo Tu said: "Why? ”

Ye Jinnan shook his head after thinking for a while: "I don't understand." ”

Luo Tu sighed: "I don't know, but I'm walking on the road to know." There must be some secrets in Tonggu Academy, otherwise why would Wan Xingchen, the old dean of the Academy of Martial Arts, go down to Jiangnan first and then find his father-in-law? At the beginning, his father-in-law Chen Bing was in Gyeonggi Province, and whoever wanted to kill his father-in-law first and then go down to Jiangnan. But Wan Xingchen went the opposite way, first swept the old guys on the bright side of Tonggu Academy, and knew that he had run out of oil and dried up before rushing back to Jiangbei, but in the end he still couldn't walk back. ”

"If there is no big secret, why should Wan Xingchen do this? So I concluded that there must be something in Tonggu Academy that made the imperial court taboo. One more thing you don't know, who is the ironclad general...... Li Qingfeng has already told me. Even the father-in-law is not sure, why did the people of Tonggu Academy know first? ”

"Who is it?"

Ye Jinnan hurriedly asked.

Luo Tu approached Ye Jinnan's younger brother and said two words, and Ye Jinnan's face immediately changed: "This...... How can it be?! ”

"I thought it was impossible, but it was true."

Luo Tu said: "I must find out the secrets in Tonggu Academy. I always felt that there was some mystery there, there was a big secret! ”

Ye Jinnan was silent, did he want to say that tens of thousands of horses would be buried for a guess?

But he didn't ask, because he was more and more afraid of Luo Tu's eyes, and there was a primitive palpitating thing in those eyes that became more and more obvious, as if Ye Jinnan didn't dare to question Luo Yao's decision before, he always felt that Luo Tu was undergoing a disturbing change.

"Duanbian Leopard"

Luo Tu shouted loudly: "Aren't you going to take revenge? I'm going to hand over the lead to you today. Even if it's a piece of iron on the other side, you have to gnaw off a corner of it! Our Luo family army has never been afraid of any enemy, not when the righteous father was here, not today, and not in the future! ”

"Whoa!"

Duan Bian Leopard agreed loudly, his eyes full of hatred.

How could he know that he was also one of the abandoned chess pieces, but it was just a relatively large one.

……

……

Fang Xie sat on the high slope grass, looking at the big city in the distance in front of him as if he was in a daze. Last night was safe and sound, Yu Xiao didn't bring anyone out to kill, which made Fang Xie a little surprised, but he was not depressed. Because he knows very well that people like Yu Xiao will not give up the opportunity.

Yu Xiao saw it very clearly, the Black Flag Army was determined to win Fengping, even if he tried his best to help Zhu Baotian defend Fengping, at that time, Fengping City was full of holes and suffered heavy losses, what use did he ask for? What's more, he didn't have the confidence to hold on.

He will not have to leave for Zhu Zhutian's funeral, since he wants to go, then he will inevitably kill Zhu Zhutian. The lack of movement last night was not because Fang Xie was wrong, but because Yu Xiao definitely didn't find a suitable opportunity. The rest of the matter has not yet begun, so Fang Xie is not in a hurry.

He was waiting for Chen Xiaoru's news, which was much more important than Yu Xiao.

Yu Xiao was just a pawn that he stumbled upon that could be used, and Chen Xiaoru's side was the killing move he had arranged.

"What are you thinking?"

Sang Sassa sat down beside Fang Xie and followed his line of sight to look at the big city.

"I didn't think about anything, and it was because I thought too much these days that I ran out to be lazy."

Fang Xie said after stretching.

"Tired?"

Sang Sasa leaned his head on Fang Jie's shoulder and asked.

"This kind of tiredness is not tired."

Fang Xie said in a calm tone: "After the man starts to walk on this path, he is destined to be like this. In order to get it, no matter how hard you work, it's not hard. If you pay but don't get it, that's hard work. And...... There are some things that will make people feel satisfied after giving them. ”

"A sense of accomplishment?"

Sang Sasa asked again.

"Hmm"

Fang Xie did not hide: "There is no substitute for a sense of achievement." ”

Sang Sa rubbed Fang Jie's shoulder, like a docile kitten: "Remember when I told you that the white lion is a symbol of foreboding, and it will appear wherever there is a war?" In fact...... This rumor is reversed, it is not that there is war wherever the white lion goes, but where the person who can make the white lion obey, there is war. ”

"At the beginning, it was like this."

Fang Xie suddenly understood what she meant, and softened her hair: "Don't worry, I'm not a mess, and I won't get lost in my desires." I know what I want, but if I lose something more important because of this, I won't do it. ”

Sang Sasa nodded, and a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At the beginning, the Mulberry Rebellion ushered in an era. With his cultivation, his army conquered the whole of the West. However, Sangrin lost too much. So she was worried that if she had the same physique as Sangran, and could make the white lion obey, would she also follow the old path of Sangran?

"Don't worry"

Fang Xie stood up and looked into the distance: "Power is a man's game, but this game is too big, big enough to make mountains and rivers change color." People who have been lost in their nature walk according to the rules of the game, and what they see is the temptation in the game. Successful people never follow the rules, but break the rules and then make their own. ”

Sang Sasa didn't understand this very well.

At this moment, a personal soldier in the distance ran over quickly, and said eagerly when he was still far away: "Lord, Chen Xiaoru has news from there!" ”

……

Seal the city

Castle Lord's Mansion

Zhu Zhutian ate the last bite of rice, and then sighed slightly with satisfaction. At his age, he rarely has any special hobbies. Although he was still strong, he had lost interest in many of the things that young men were obsessed with.

With his status, what has not been tasted for so many years?

If he were to think about how many women he had possessed so far in his life, he would definitely have a headache. If he were to think about how much wealth he had gained so far in his life, he would not know.

Now, his satisfaction came with ease.

A smooth meal, eating no grain of rice left is an achievement.

Perhaps many people have not discovered a detail, since ancient times, there is a large part of the successful people have a common characteristic, that is, the attitude towards food.

"How's Yu Xiao?"

He asked

Yu Mingli replied: "Since the defeat outside the city yesterday, I haven't come out since I returned to my home." It is said that the light in the study has been on all night, so I must have felt uncomfortable. However, his subordinates didn't expect that Fang Jie's cultivation to be so high, it was indeed unexpected. ”

"The nine doors of the Martial Arts Academy are excellent, do you think it's that easy?"

Zhu Baotian said: "The last one was Li Xiao, and half of the world of the Great Sui was beaten down by him!" ”

He was silent for a while and said, "Go and send someone to call Yu Xiao, I have something to say to him." ”

"Master, this kind of person is not worth your attention. Let him shrink at home, if he loses once and has no courage, he will not be able to become a big climate! ”

Zhu Baotian sighed: "After all, he has done a lot for Feng Ping, and he also knows about the Sui army, so he can still defend the city." ”

"Yes"

Yu Ming responded and sent someone to do it.

Yu Mansion

Yu Xiao sat back in his chair and kept wiping his long knife, turning his head from time to time to look outside. He didn't go to see Zhu Baotian last night because he didn't feel safe enough. He was waiting, if Zhu Baotian didn't send someone to find him, then he was really suspicious of him and wanted to take the opportunity to cut off his military power. If Zhu Baotian sent someone here, then it would be a really good opportunity.

"General, the city lord, please come over!"

Someone outside raised his voice and said, Yu Xiao's eyes immediately lit up.

He smiled, a little smug. Pushing open the window and looking out, the wind and sun were beautiful, and it was really a good weather to kill.

The south bank of the Yangtze River

Yang Jian's general Mosa picked up Duanbian Leopard, grabbed his neck with one hand and one leg with the other, and dragged both hands to both sides, and with a poof, Duanbian Leopard was dragged into two pieces alive.

The Luo family army was defeated, and the blood flowed like a river.
