(Requesting monthly votes) Chapter 763 Good Weather for Killing On the South Bank of the Yangtze River, nearly 15,000 armored troops were waiting in formation. Standing on the plain, they looked like a single piece of iron. An expressionless warrior, the sharpest and coldest killing machine. Such an army is the dream of any military leader. In the era of swords, guns and halberds, it seemed that nothing could stop them from advancing. The Sui army behind has also been prepared. Each square formation looks like it is cut out of tofu cubes. If you can look down from the sky, you can fully feel the majesty of the hundreds of thousands of troops. Opposite the Sui army, General Luo has also completed his formation. The sky is clear, no clouds and no wind. It¡¯s really a killer weather. Ye Jinnan glanced at Luo Tu, who was riding a black horse, and felt a little pain in his heart. Today's war is already destined to end before it even begins. The soldiers who have already formed their formation are all abandoned chess pieces. Luo Tu had decided to retreat to Tonggu Academy, but if he retreated without a fight, he would not be able to explain to those in Tonggu Academy. So, many people are bound to die. But they themselves don¡¯t know. "Your Majesty" Ye Jinnan called out, but couldn't say the next words. Luo Tu squinted his eyes and glanced at him: "I know what you are going to say. Of all the generals in the army, you are the most gentle and mature. You are reluctant to part with these people, but you should understand How can I be willing to part with them? You also know that if not It's hard for us to retreat in a decent defeat. The hundreds of thousands of troops gathered by Tonggu Academy are behind us. Those bastards have already planned it. If our people don't die, they will never meet us. "Come up." "But" Ye Jinnan said: "If we go back, will the people from Tonggu Academy lead troops to intercept us? A fight to the death is not what they want to see." "That's right, they do. They won't really fight against me. The troops Tonggu Academy can mobilize now are only 300,000. They still have troops to control Jiangdu. Once Chang'an cannot be taken, Jiangdu will be the new capital So, Those old guys won¡¯t really fight to the death with me, but I don¡¯t want to fall out with them now.¡± Luo Tu said: ¡°So even if it¡¯s just a show, I have to be more submissive and let those old guys go. Go fight with the people of the imperial court. Nothing is perfect in this world. If I don¡¯t throw away something myself, those people won¡¯t trust me to stay by their side.¡± ¡°Prince¡± Ye Jinnan advised: ¡°Why bother. With our current strength, there is no need to retreat to the south to get rid of the imperial troops. They can go east or west. There are only two soldiers of Yang Shunhui in the east, and there is nothing we can do to stop the black flag army in the west. If the situation is stable, why should we get entangled with the people from Tonggu Academy? " "Do you know why the people in the imperial court are only focusing on Jiangnan?" Luo Tu asked. Ye Jinnan was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know." "When God Bless 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 became chaotic. Since then, the imperial troops have been staring at Jiangnan. Jin Shixiong, Gao Kaitai, and Wang Yiqu, especially the latter two, have 200,000 troops under their command. They are closest to Gyeonggi Road. Why don't the imperial troops attack them first? Xie's troubles in the southwest are turning upside down. Although he is still under the banner of the imperial court, who can't see that his ambitions are not small? As far as I know, even Wu Yiyi, who has a good fortune in the world, is entangled with him, so the two of them are entangled. How harmful would it be to the court if individuals joined forces? 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.¡± "I don't know either, but I'm walking on the path I know. There must be some secrets in Tonggu Academy. Otherwise, why would Wan Xingchen, the old director of Yanwu Academy, go to Jiangnan first and then find his adoptive father? Chen Bing was on the Gyeonggi Road, and no one else would have killed his adoptive father before going to Jiangnan. But Wan Xingchen did the opposite and scanned the old guys in Tonggu Academy first, knowing that he had run out of gas. I just rushed back to Jiangbei, but in the end I couldn't go back. " "If there is no big secret, why would Wan Xingchen be like this? So I conclude that there must be something that the imperial court is taboo about. I know who the Iron Armored General is Li Qingfeng has already told me. Even my adoptive father is not sure. Why do people from Tonggu Academy know it first? "Ye Jinnan asked quickly.Luo Tu came close to Ye Jinnan and whispered two words into Ye Jinnan's ear. Ye Jinnan's expression immediately changed: "How is this possible?!" "Originally I thought it was impossible, but it is true." Luo Tu said: "I must find out the secrets in Tonggu Academy. I always feel that there is some mystery there, a huge secret!" Ye Jinnan was silent. Did he want to kill tens of thousands of people just for a guess? But he didn't ask, because he was more and more afraid of Luo Tu's eyes. There was something primitive and heart-stopping in those eyes that became more and more obvious. It was like Ye Jinnan didn't dare to question any of Luo Yao's decisions before. I always feel that Luo Tu is undergoing an unsettling change. "Duanbianbao" Luo Tu shouted loudly: "Don't you want revenge? Today I will hand over the front line to you. Even if the opposite side is a piece of iron, you have to gnaw off a corner of it! Our Luo family army has never been afraid of any enemy. Not when the adoptive father is here, not today, not in the future!" "Here!" Duan Bianbao agreed loudly, with hatred in his eyes. How could he know that he was also one of the abandoned chess pieces, but it was just a bigger one. ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ Fang Jie was sitting on the grass on the high slope, looking at the big city in the distance in front of him as if he was in a daze. Last night was uneventful, and Yu Xiao did not lead anyone to fight out. This surprised Fang Jie, but he was not depressed. Because he knew very well that people like Yu Xiao would not give up opportunities. Yu Xiao could see clearly that the Black Flag Army was determined to capture Fengping. Even if he tried his best to help Zhu Zhitian defend Fengping, at that time Fengping city was riddled with holes and his troops suffered heavy losses. What else could he want? use? What's more, he has no confidence that he can hold on. He would not leave because he was buried with Zhu Zhitian. Since he wanted to leave, he would definitely kill Zhu Zhitian. The lack of movement last night was not because Fang Jie's prediction was wrong, but because Yu Xiao definitely didn't find a suitable opportunity. The rest of the matter has not yet unfolded, so Fang Jie is not in a hurry. He is waiting for news about Chen Xiaoru, which is much more important than Yu Xiao. Yu Xiao is just a chess piece that he accidentally discovered and can be used. Chen Xiaoru is the one who has arranged the killing move. "What are you thinking about?" Sang Sasa sat down next to Fang Jie and followed his gaze towards the big city. "I haven't thought about anything. It's because I've been thinking too much these days that I ran out to be lazy." Fang Jie stretched and said. "Are you tired?" Sang Sasa asked, leaning her head on Fang Jie's shoulder. "This kind of tiredness is not considered tired." Fang Jie said in a calm tone: "After a man starts walking on this road, he is destined to be like this. If you pay in order to get something, no matter how hard you work, it is not hard. If you give but don't get anything, Yeah, that's hard work. And there are some things that give people a sense of accomplishment after hard work." Sang Sasha asked again. "Yeah" Fang Jie didn't hide anything: "Irreplaceable sense of accomplishment." Sang Sasha rubbed Fang Jie's shoulder, like a docile kitten: "Remember I once told you, the white lion Chaos Is it an ominous symbol that appears wherever there is war? Actuallythis rumor is wrong. It's not that wherever the white lion goes, there will be war, but wherever there is a person who can make the white lion obey, The war is there." "That was how Sang Luan was." Fang Jie suddenly understood what she meant and ruffled her hair: "Don't worry, I'm not Sang Luan and I won't get lost in my own desires. I want something, but if I lose something more important because of getting it, I won¡¯t do it.¡± Sang Sasha nodded, and a smile finally appeared on the corner of her mouth. Back then, Sang Luan created an era. Using his cultivation, his army conquered the entire West. However, Sang Luan lost too much. So she was worried that Fang Jie, who had the same physique as Sang Luan and could make the white lion obey, would follow Sang Luan's old path? "Don't worry." Fang Jie stood up and looked into the distance: "Power is a man's game, but this game is too big, big enough to change the color of mountains and rivers. People who have lost their nature are playing according to the rules of the game. Yes, what they see is the temptation in this game. Successful people never follow the rules, but break the rules and make their own." Sang Sasa didn't quite understand this. At this moment, a soldier from a distance ran over quickly. He was still far away and said eagerly: "My lord, there is news from Chen Xiaoru."?! " Feng Ping City City Lord's Mansion Zhu Zhitian ate the last mouthful of rice, and then groaned slightly with satisfaction. At his age, he rarely has any special hobbies. Although his body is still strong, but He has lost interest in many things that young men are obsessed with. With his status, what has he not experienced in so many years? If he were asked to think about how many women he has possessed in his life, he would definitely have a headache. He has no idea how much wealth he has gained in his life. Now, his satisfaction comes from a simple meal. Eating every grain of rice is an achievement. Maybe many people have not discovered this detail. , a large number of successful people since ancient times have a common characteristic, that is their attitude towards food. ¡°How is Yu Xiao? " He asked. Yu Mingli replied: "Since yesterday's defeat outside the city, I have not come out since I returned to my home. It is said that the light in the study was on all night, which must have made me feel uncomfortable. However, the subordinates did not expect that Fang Jie had such a high level of cultivation, which was indeed unexpected. " "Excellence in the nine disciplines of the Yanwu Academy, do you think it is that easy? " Zhu Zhitian said: "The last one was Li Xiao, he conquered half of the world in the Sui Dynasty! " He was silent for a while and said: "Go and send someone to call Yu Xiao. I have something to say to him. " "Sir, this kind of person is not worthy of your attention. Let him cower at home. People who lose their courage after losing once will not be able to make a big impact! " Zhu Supportian sighed: "After all, he has done a lot for Fengping. He also knows the Sui army well and can still use it to defend the city. " "Yes" Yu Ming agreed and sent someone to do it. Yu Mansion Yu Xiao was sitting on a chair and had been wiping his long knife, turning his head to look outside from time to time. He did not go to see Zhu Zhitian last night because He felt it was not safe enough. He was waiting. If Zhu Zhitian didn't send someone to find him, then he was really suspicious of him and wanted to take the opportunity to reduce his military power. It¡¯s a really good opportunity. ¡°General, the city lord invites you to come over! Someone outside raised his voice and said, and Yu Xiao¡¯s eyes immediately lit up. He smiled, feeling a little proud. He opened the window and looked outside. It was sunny and windy, and it was really a killer weather. ¡ ¡ ¡ South Bank of the Yangtze River Yang Jian His general, Mosa, picked up Duan Bianbao, holding his neck with one hand and a leg with the other. He pulled Duan Bianbao to both sides with both hands. With a pop, Duan Bianbao was pulled into two pieces alive. Defeated, blood flowed like a river.
