Next are other officials with conclusive evidence related to the kings of the world.
The emperor took them all into custody and stated that as long as they explained their respective affairs clearly, they would not be killed. At most, they would be dismissed from office and their homes confiscated.
The rest are loyal ministers, or more cunning old foxes with no flaws.
The emperor asked them to take charge of the work of investigating guilty officials, which was both a reward and a test to see their performance and see if there were any flaws.
At this time, the sky has turned white and the night has passed.
The ministers went to work, and the emperor was not idle either. He continued to dispatch troops and generals to encircle and suppress the gangs in the capital.
The reason why we don't fight at night is because the Jianghu people are stronger and it is more beneficial to them at night.
Although cold arrows cannot be fired during the day, the various hidden weapons and poisons of the Jianghu people are not so scrupulous.
In this way, the elite armored soldiers of the imperial court can bulldoze any gang. If the top masters do not escape, they will be killed by the sword.
…
The fighting was cruel from the beginning. As the gangs discovered that the emperor was determined to surround and kill him, they immediately knew that the end was over and all used light skills to escape. The situation became even more cruel.
Because the crossbowman used the crossbow without any scruples, not caring where the missed crossbow would land or whether it would kill innocent people.
Some Jianghu people couldn't bear it anymore and forced themselves to do something, and were killed on the spot.
Some rich kids who wanted to speak out were killed on the spot.
Some students from the academy and martial arts school went up and were killed on the spot.
In a word, the imperial court will exterminate the rebels, and anyone who dares to stop them will be killed without mercy!
…
In the academy, some deans gathered together for a meeting, hoping to find someone to convince the emperor not to be so crazy.
But after many discussions, no one felt sure to convince the emperor, because the emperor was now for his throne, and anyone who dared to stand in the way would die.
Finally, he sighed and let it go.
…
The emperor received a secret report of the gathering of the deans, but ignored them.
Since you won't help him, there's no reason to stop him.
The emperor stared with red eyes and was busy dealing with the newly sent military affairs.
Just as the secret agent commander said, as King Dongping raised troops, the news of General Anton's death spread. Wherever the news spread, the princes started to raise troops.
And the generals who guarded various places did not take advantage of the merits. They all stood firm and rectified the army.
All the kings in the world raised armies, but all the land routes were blocked, and it became a battle for supremacy on the water routes.
However, each king still sent small teams of soldiers and horses to the rear of the armies to cause trouble.
The armies from all walks of life also sent elites over. On both sides, you chased me, I ran and you chased me, and they fought everywhere.
The Three Kings of the South advanced on the waterways. The waterways in the southwest and south were not very wide. There were more land battles than water battles, and the battle situation was stalemate.
In the southeast, there are water battles and naval battles. The water area is vast, and Qinggong becomes the key to victory or defeat.
Although there are many troops on the Southeast Road and local naval forces, after they are spread out, they are not strong enough to stop the Southeast King's elite naval troops, and they can only guard the dangerous places.
The emperor had no choice but to mobilize troops from the middle road to block King Dongping on the east road and reinforce the southeast road to suppress the king of southeast.
Such a deployment immediately made those who were interested understand that the emperor had no cards in his hand.
We also know that the world is really in chaos, and it is out of control.
…
On the other side, Foundry Island.
After forty days, ten sea ships finally returned.
The leader found Yamazaki and delivered a letter from King Dongping.
Yamazaki didn't stop, "Did King Dongping raise an army?"
"yes."
"I see."
"What about this letter?"
Yamazaki explained: "I will first send the people of the memorial arch to the state capital, and then consider other things."
The leader was stunned, "Ah? Your Excellency, you want to go back?"
"yes."
"But you are a prisoner of the imperial court!"
Yamazaki smiled and said: "It has been forty days, and the navy in the state capital has not found us yet. This means that the imperial envoy has been searching for clues among the people to no avail. Not only is it fruitless, it may have caused the government to force the people to rebel."
The leader really didn't know this information, "Are you sure?"
Yamazaki nodded, "Of course, because they are outsiders, no one will care about their life or death. If I guessed correctly, Jiaozhou Prefecture is now the head of gangs, businessmen make the decision, and the colleges make adjustments, and the government works for everyone for money, maintaining Law and order.”
"Huh?" The leader couldn't imagine that situation.
Yamazaki smiled and said: "The sky is high in Jiaozhou and the emperor is far away. Whoever becomes the emperor has nothing to do with them. No matter whether it is officials or soldiers, they are all just messing around and stuttering."
The leader thought, "Okay, but I hope you can restrain your department and not leak the news about the island."
Yamazaki waved his hand and said: "There is no need to hide now. Since King Dongping has raised his army, he will definitely seize the sea ships and will send ships to collect weapons within a month."
"That's it." The leader believed it, because the person who said this was a mountain man. He said that the world was in chaos, and now it is really in chaos.
Yamazaki pondered, "Speaking of which, if I were you, I would bring the craftsmen and miners ashore with us. Otherwise, you will probably continue to work on the island until the chaos ends."
The leader didn't understand, "Well, didn't you say that the emperor's strength has been exhausted?"
"But who will ultimately belong to the world cannot yet be determined. This battle is still to be fought."
"ah?"
"Anyway, think about it carefully and plan it for yourself and the brothers around you who have been on the island for many years."
"Yes, thank you for your advice."
…
When the leader returned and said it, everyone responded, "Only a ghost wants to stay on this island!"
As soon as Yamazaki announced his departure, people on the other side of the archway packed their things happily.
That night they caroused, everyone ate and drank, and the next day they loaded the ship and left together.
Since I didn’t want many things and had finished eating, it didn’t seem crowded with nearly 3,000 people on ten boats.
The date of returning to the capital of Jiaozhou was exactly fifty days from the day of departure.
And they came back and caused a stir.
Those who had never seen the Man in the Mountain rushed to watch.
Now the world is in chaos, and the heroes have risen together, exactly as predicted by the people in the mountain.
Such a strange person is right next to you. If you don't take a look at him, you would be really sorry for your geographical advantage.
…
Yamazaki went to Long's house, and this time he was treated as an open door to welcome guests.
The Long family came back early, and their lives were generally the same as before.
Yamazaki met with Mrs. Long and said frankly that she wanted to return to the archway, but the condition was that the Long family would do it.
The old lady said she didn't dare, saying that she was just a trustee. Now that the person is back, the property will naturally return to its original owner.
Yamazaki didn't give in, thanked him and left.
From beginning to end, there was no mention of the head of the Dragon Academy.
However, she met him when she went out. She heard that the people from the mountains were coming back with a group of people. She expected that he would come to visit and use the memorial arch to accommodate the people, so she came back to take a look.
"Leaving so soon?"
Yamazaki thought, "There are still a lot of things at the archway. I originally wanted to find the leader of the Dragon Court later, but it's just right now. The leader of the Dragon Court is fine. Would you like to accompany me for a few steps?"
The leader of the Long Academy was curious, "Okay, what do you want from me?"
Yamazaki smiled and said: "No big deal, I just want to see more of the leader of the Dragon Academy."
"Are you being a rogue?" Longyuan leader said calmly. He had experienced this kind of scene too many times.
