Chapter 296 Siege Chariot
"Brother Xu, this..."
Several people from the courtyard opened their mouths, as if they wanted to say something.
"What? Not convinced?"
Xu Canglie glanced at them.
"I accept the punishment."
After a moment of silence, Yu Zhengchu took the lead and spoke first.
"We also accept the punishment."
The other courtyard owners could only hang their heads.
Since they were able to take charge of the Sixth Academy, they were all sophisticated and calculating people. How could they not know that Yu Zhengchu's punishment had very deep intentions.
The first is to show justice and clean up the unhealthy trends in the college; the second is to take the opportunity to establish authority so that the presidents will not dare to mess around in the future; the third is to calm Lin Mu's anger.
This third point is the most important.
Lin Mu was treated harshly by the academy before. Although there was no betrayal, it is impossible for a genius like him to be without resentment and grudges.
Once a genius like Lin Mu has a grudge against the college, it will definitely not be a good thing for the future development of the college.
Now that Xu Canglie was punishing them severely, the main reason was to show Lin Mu.
Seeing the deans of the six majors admitting their punishment, Xu Canglie remained expressionless, but nodded lightly and continued: "The elders in the college are aware of the faults of the deans of the six majors and do not hinder them. They will be fined for half a year and their salary will be reduced by one level. "
"yes."
The elders obeyed the orders honestly.
"Liu Nanshan briefly ventured into danger to save students, and was ambushed by the Qiao family and Nanping Villa. He did not retreat, which is a great contribution. From now on, when I am away, the overall power of the college will be controlled by Liu Nanshan. Other college owners shall not violate it unless they all oppose his decision. inverse."
In the end, Xu Canglie deprived Yu Zhengchu of his power and handed it over to Liu Nanshan.
When Yu Zhengchu heard this, he did not feel resentful, but instead breathed a sigh of relief.
"I have long felt that I am more suitable for down-to-earth alchemy refining, and not suitable for participating in these chores."
He laughed to himself.
During this time, he really felt that he had failed in everything he did.
Although it was not him who forced Lin Mu to hand over the strange fire, he did not stop it and allowed the matter to develop.
"Lin Mu, do you still have any complaints against the academy?"
After all the rewards and punishments were pronounced, Xu Canglie turned his eyes to Lin Mu again.
After hearing this, Lin Mu glanced around and then said calmly: "Although I'm still a little unhappy, I feel a lot more comfortable."
"Moreover, now that we are facing a formidable enemy, we should focus on how to defend ourselves against the enemy first, and we can talk about other things later."
"Well said, now that we have a powerful enemy, we should focus on how to defend ourselves against it."
Xu Canglie praised, "But don't rush for a minute or two. Let's talk about what reward you, a great hero, want."
"what can you give me?"
Lin Mu slightly raised his eyelids and glanced at him.
No matter how majestic Xu Canglie was in front of others, he still had the impression of that lazy old man in Xichuan City in his heart. Although he respected him, he could not be in awe of him.
"I can give you more than you imagine."
Seeing Lin Mu's attitude, Xu Canglie's face changed as if he were flipping through a book, and he snorted coldly, "But judging from your appearance, you are not in a hurry to get a reward, so let's talk about it later."
In his eyes, there was an imperceptible smile.
"Hey, don't be like this. Give me some spiritual stones."
Lin Mu didn't expect that this old man would be so shameless and dare to change his words in a blink of an eye in public, and he was immediately dumbfounded.
"All the soldiers of the Zixiao Army obeyed the order, drew their bows, and shot a hundred times outside the city wall to prevent the so-called crusaders outside from making trouble."
Xu Canglie ignored Lin Mu and turned around to give orders to the Zixiao army.
"Yes, Commander."
With a snap, a thousand Zixiao Army cavalry saluted as ordered, and then took down the longbows in unison.
Behind each Zixiao Army soldier is a spear on his right shoulder, and a bow and quiver on his left shoulder.
This is different from other armies. In other armies, ordinary guards and shooters are separated, but the officers and soldiers of the Zixiao Army are all capable of riding, shooting, resisting and fighting.
Moreover, although everyone's cultivation level is not strong, they are all warriors. They can cooperate well and closely. Even martial arts masters can't find any flaws. Once they get close, they will be easily killed together.
At this moment, you can see their power again from the way they draw their bows and shoot arrows.
Draw the bow!
Archery!
The movements are uniform and majestic.
Buzz!
Immediately afterwards, there was a harsh sound of long arrows piercing the air. Thousands of long arrows shot straight into the sky, and then all shot towards the outside of Seven Star Academy.
"ah!"
A series of screams suddenly came from outside the courtyard wall.
Where ordinary warriors could withstand the shooting of regular troops, hundreds of people would be injured in an instant, and dozens of them would be shot dead on the spot.
But this is just the beginning. Xu Canglie has ordered Bai Lun to be shot, so it will be Bai Lun.
This group of iron-blooded soldiers will not hesitate or make any mistakes in the execution of military orders.
Round after round of shootings unfolded, and even if the warriors outside the wall behind were on guard, they were still difficult to resist.
After a hundred rounds, the originally aggressive siege battle of the Crusade Alliance was extinguished like a squib.
The high momentum no longer existed, and each one dispersed like panicked birds and beasts, leaving only blood on the ground and nearly a thousand corpses.
Just when they saw that the siege was about to cease, the earth suddenly shook again.
Boom!
Everyone in the college looked out through the door in surprise, and couldn't help but gasp.
I saw a huge siege equipment being pushed out from the Fang family camp.
This siege equipment is a vehicle-shaped equipment, three meters high, and completely made of steel.
At the front end is a huge conical iron head, used to hit the city gate.
Behind the iron head, there is a thick steel pipe with a large number of spiritual stones embedded in it.
"Oops, siege tank."
The expressions of all the senior officials at Yu Zheng Junior College changed.
The siege chariot was a real siege machine. Many city gates could not withstand its impact, let alone the gate of Seven Star Academy.
What's more serious is that this tank also has energy cannons.
Judging from the size of this energy barrel, it is estimated to be quite powerful. All the top martial artists present felt the fatal attack from inside.
It is precisely because the siege chariots are so powerful and extremely expensive that the Fang family has not used them before.
Now, Fang Jue was really driven into panic by Lin Mu and humiliated by Xu Canglie. His murderous intention had completely gone berserk, which is why he was so crazy.
"Once this siege tank is allowed to show its power, the college's defense will definitely not be able to stop it."
"Is God going to destroy me and Seven Star Academy?"
Several elders said in horror.
But no matter how worried they were, they could only watch and couldn't do anything.
However, while other senior officials were still discussing, Xu Canglie had already reacted: "Zixiao Army, mount up."
Wow!
Thousands of cavalry mounted their horses without asking why.
At the same time, Xu Canglie himself jumped on the horse again, pointing his spear outside: "Soldiers are very fast, charge with me, and destroy the siege chariot before it starts operating."
As he spoke, he took the lead, turned into an afterimage, and rushed out of the door.
Immediately behind him, thousands of Zixiao Army cavalry, like arrows, rode dragon dragon horses and rushed outwards.
