Chapter 825: Let me explain

The students of Tonggu Academy looked in panic as the iron-armored general stabbed the long spear into Li Qingfeng's heart, and their screams immediately became a whole. They were just ordinary students in the academy, and they came here just to give a halo in front of their names. They didn't know what the Tonggu Academy represents. In their opinion, the academy was just an academic palace.

They would not have thought that war would harm the academy. They simply thought that no matter who sat on the dragon throne, they would not have any damage to the academy. But today they witnessed the demise of the academy. At this moment, they did not realize that they had experienced any important moments, they were just afraid, just fear.

So, they are actually lucky.

Their fear is just because they are killing people, not the deeper things behind them. They may never know in their lifetime what the Tonggu Academy, where they lived for a while, was. What a glorious past this academy once had.

"Why do you want to kill people randomly? You are just a beast!"

A young man wearing a white book-gown robe shouted in a trembling voice. After shouting, even he was shocked. He didn't know why he shouted out, and then subconsciously took several steps back.

Yang Jian looked at the young scholar and said nothing.

He waved his hand, and then a large group of iron-armored soldiers rushed in from outside and dragged the dead bodies out. Then the soldiers began to clean the yard silently, move the gravel away, and clean the yard. Soon, the yard returned to tidy, except for the collapsed ancient tower that looked particularly desolate from a distance, it seemed that nothing had happened.

"Who is the best gentleman in the academy?"

He asked.

The students looked at each other and spontaneously protected an old man behind him. This was a natural behavior, so it was even more admirable. The old man separated the crowd and walked to the front of the students with his jaws. He did not know how to practice, but he was just a great scholar who was serious about learning. But he opened his arms and blocked the students behind him. It was like a hen that saw an eagle swooping down from the sky, protecting the chicks under his wings, although this had no meaning at all.

"You will be the dean of the academy from now on."

Yang Jian pointed to the old man, but did not ask him about his life: "You people will never know the filth behind the academy, but this is great. You can study and study with peace of mind. In the future, the imperial court needs you to be officials. Since the imperial court has wiped out a group of people in the academy, it is because these people should die. None of the teachers who taught you studies have died because they don't know anything at all."

Yang Jian paused for a moment: "It's great if you don't know, so don't try to know in the future. Study quietly. In the future, someone among you may become the pillars of the country, and that's the way you should go."

After saying this, Yang Jian walked out of the academy.

He threw the long spear out at will. After two iron armored soldiers caught it, they took a few steps back. This shows how heavy the long spear is.

"Even if you are from the court, you have no right to execute them directly. Even if they are guilty, they must be escorted to the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Justice for crimes before they can be convicted!"

Someone shouted foolishly.

Yang Jian looked back at him, then smiled: "You will be a straightforward and good official in the future, if... you can survive in troubled times."

He left the academy and said nothing more. The students and the teachers squeezed together to watch him leave, and as the majestic army left, everyone felt that they were experiencing a nightmare, but when they closed their eyes and opened them, the dream still did not wake up.

"Owner"

As the Iron Armored General Mosa said, "Jin Shiduo led the remaining soldiers to retreat eastward, probably to join Luo Tu's rebels. Jin Shixiong's men had already attacked the north bank of the Yangtze River. The Third Master did not have many troops, and it was very difficult to fight... Should I return to support the Third Master, or continue to attack?"

Yang Jian pondered for a while and said, "It seems that Jin Shixiong's cultivation is good, otherwise he would not be able to kill him. You bring 5,000 Iron Armored Army 30,000 infantrymen back to the north bank of the Yangtze River to support rushing tigers. I will take my men to attack Liuzhou."

Mosa nodded: "Subordinate to obey the order."

"in addition……"

Yang Jian paused for a moment and said, "Send someone to the Mu Mansion to tell them that if they don't send troops, after I wipe out Jiangnan, I will point the troops to the eastern border. There is also Yang Shunhui. If he can stand back at this time, I can leave the past without any blame."

"Where is the eldest princess?"

Another general under his command, Yang Chong, asked: "Now the eldest princess has gone to the Black Flag Army. With her here, the Black Flag Army has become more and more unscrupulous in its work. Now the entire southwest is controlled by the Black Flag Army. If he indulges the person named Fang Jie, he will be even more difficult to deal with in the future."

"He's different..."

Yang Jian said: "Just because he led his troops south to destroy Yan State, I can also give him a chance. After the matter in Jiangnan is settled, I will meet this person."

Yangtze

A huge navy fleet went upstream and drove from east to west. The Luo-like battle flag that once hung on the bow of the ship had already descended. It was not replaced with the slaughter flag, nor the red flag of the court. The flagpole was bare and a little awkward, but this represented the mood of the navy general Zheng Qiu at this time.

Luo Yao treated him well, so he had thought of assisting Luo Yao sincerely. But Luo Yao died, and after Luo Tu inherited the position of King Yong, the army changed its flavor. More than two months ago, Luo Tu sent someone to invite him to go to Liuzhou to have a banquet on the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th. What happened later made him completely determined to leave the Yong army.

He was afraid that Luo Tu would have some doubts, so he planned to go to the banquet on August 15th. However, Mu Li and Zuo Mingchan persuaded him. Out of peace, he followed Mu Li's advice and pretended to take his men away from the navy fleet on August 15th. He suddenly turned back halfway, so he saw another general under Luo Tu, Silang, and his men, marching towards the navy. Seeing this scene, Zheng Qiu could not understand it very much.

Fortunately, he had made arrangements for all the naval warships left the shore. After Silang brought elite troops to the fleet station, he could only look at the big ship and sighed. They could not get close to the warships, so the clearing plan arranged by Luo Tu was declared shattered. Silang immediately sent someone back to report to Luo Tu. Luo Tu knew that some news must have leaked, so he personally led his troops to chase him, but at this time, the navy had left the garrison and set off north.

With Luo Tu's cultivation level, he could naturally catch up and kill Zheng Qiu, but killing Zheng Qiu was useless. The navy's people already knew his intention. If he killed one Zheng Qiu, it would be impossible to kill everyone. As long as the navy enters the Yangtze River, can Luo Tu still kill one by one on the river?

Moreover, just as Luo Tu was about to lead his troops to chase him, Jin Shiduo was defeated.

The defeated soldiers rushed towards Liuzhou, and Luo Tu had to return to Liuzhou immediately. Because he was afraid that Yang Jian's Iron Armored Army would chase him in one breath when he was away, all his plans would be lost. Before the firearm battalion was built, he did not want to fight the Iron Armored Army.

Jin Shiduo's defeated troops were still 100,000, and the temptation of such a team was almost the same as that of the navy. So after Luo Tu hesitated for a while, he chose to stabilize the situation in Liuzhou first.

But, he was really angry.

Without the Navy, it became much more difficult to march into Jiangbei in the future.

Zheng Qiu's navy had reached the intersection of the Yangtze River, Luoshui and Huangniu River. From here, he turned south and went downstream to Xinyang City soon. A few days ago, the people from the Xiaoqi School sent a secret letter. Fang Jie, the commander of the Black Flag Army, had arrived at Huangyang Road and would personally go to Xinyang City to wait for the navy to arrive.

This news made Zheng Qiu feel a little more at ease, and Fang Jie's attention was a good thing for him. The reason why he decided to surrender to the Black Flag Army was first because of Luo Tu's ruthlessness, second because of the strength of the Black Flag Army, and thirdly because the eldest princess is now in the Black Flag Army.

Zheng Qiu knew better than anyone else that at this time, whoever represents the orthodox Yang family would take advantage of the various forces.

"There is nothing to worry about when it comes to this."

Chen Xiaoru leaned on the side of the ship and breathed a sigh of relief: "With Luo Tu's cultivation, when the navy left, he could catch up and kill all directions, but he didn't. He also wanted to thank the Iron Armored General... If it weren't for Jin Shiduo, he would have happened to be defeated, and Luo Tu would definitely not let the navy go easily."

Mu Li didn't know that the Iron Armor General was Yang Jian, so Chen Xiaoru would naturally not tell him. After hearing Chen Xiaoru's words, he said with some concern: "Will there be any danger if Zuo Mingchan takes people behind to destroy Luo Tu's deal with foreigners? He is my life-saving benefactor, and I'm a little worried."

Chen Xiaoru shook his head: "He went to Mouping, don't worry. No matter how long Luo Tu's hand stretched out, he couldn't reach Mouping. It would be more convenient to destroy his transactions with foreigners in Dongjiang."

"That's good"

Mu Li replied absent-mindedly, a little worried about his situation after joining the Black Flag Army. He is different from Zheng Qiu. Zheng Qiu has brought a whole navy, so Fang Jie will definitely use it, and now he has no one under his command.

As if seeing through his thoughts, Chen Xiaoru smiled and said, "I heard that my lord planned to use you as the general of the recruit camp to train the recruits of the Zhuqueshan camp. This is a beautiful man. Congratulations to General Mu in advance."

"real?"

Mu Li's heart suddenly became bright and his smile appeared on his face: "That's good...that's good!"

Liuzhou

Luo Tu looked at the person in front of him and subconsciously took four or five steps back. Since his cultivation level increased greatly, he felt that he would no longer be afraid of someone like this. Even when he recalled Luo Yao's strength, he felt that his current cultivation level could be better than Luo Yao, so the fear in his memory gradually faded away, leaving only the growing confidence.

He didn't even think he would lose to Yang Jian, because he could be even stronger because of the Heaven-Swallowing Master.

But now the person who appeared in front of him and just stood there, he felt powerless. He was sure at the first time that even if he showed all his strength, it would be meaningless to this person.

“It seems that the promise is not kept.”

The man in white said lightly, then sat down in Luo Yao's study, so casually. However, Luo Tu had the urge to turn around and run away immediately, but he didn't dare.

"Because I'm not sure of winning, I have to prepare some!"

Luo Tu explained in a hoarse voice: "Prepare more, prepare more!"

The man in white nodded and looked at Luo Tu: "A few days ago, when you heard that the academy was destroyed by Yang Jian, you laughed all night. Now can you tell me why you are so happy?"

Luo Tu opened his mouth, his throat sores.
