Ninth Grade Jailer: He actually went on a blind date with the leader of the Demon Cult at the beginn

Lushan.

The heavy fog spit out the sun, and the morning light spewed out. The bleak air of late autumn that had accumulated all night was completely dissipated, and there was a faint hint of warmth.

In front of the mountain gate, hundreds of elegant students wearing silk scarves and Confucian shirts looked at the stone path in the mountain and waited eagerly.

Late last night, they were so excited that they couldn't sleep all night after learning that Li Zian had come to Lushan. The teachers also made it clear that Zian would come to the academy again this morning to discuss strategies to retreat from the enemy. So at dawn, they gathered in front of the mountain gate to wait for Li Zian's arrival.

Why don't the students from Lushan go to Luoyang with the large army like the students from the Imperial College?

It’s not that they are full of passion and want to use what they have learned throughout their lives to protect their homeland and country. These are actually the academic principles that teachers teach them on daily basis.

This is the biggest difference between Lushan College and Imperial College.

Lushan's philosophy is to cultivate one's morality, manage one's family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world, while the Imperial College's philosophy is to study for the sake of becoming an official.

Li Yan, why are you so depressed all the time?

Lu Zhishan, who originally studied in the Imperial College, followed the path of Du Yan, a bachelor, and got into Lushan College.

As the leader of the four great talents in the south of the Yangtze River, Lu Zhishan, who holds a title of Jieyuan, has long since corrected his evil ways.

How much he offended Li Nuo at the beginning, now he admires Li Nuo so much.

Of course, Lu Zhishan's nature is not bad, but as a child of an aristocratic family, he showed his literary talent at a young age. It is normal for him to be a little arrogant under the admiration of everyone. After being knocked down by Li Nuo several times, he was completely convinced.

As a native of Jiangnan, he could have left directly, but he didn't do that. He stayed, saying that he wanted to live and die with Chang'an! This also made other Lushan students look at this transfer student through the back door with admiration.

Cui Liyan next to him had a heavy face, looking a little out of place among the excited students.

Cui Liyan raised his head and glanced at Lu Zhishan, shaking his head: It's nothing, maybe he was too tired last night.

Oh, I thought you didn't want to see Brother Zian.

Lu Zhishan smiled.

Cui Liyan opened his mouth.

He was really afraid of seeing Li Nuo.

He is different from Lu Zhishan.

Lu Zhishan's home is in Jiangnan, but his home is in Chang'an.

Ever since Cui Wuhui disappeared during the Taishan assassination, there has really been a falling out in the Cui family mansion. Cui Liyan's uncles are all ambitious and vying for power, but his father is a gentle and good-natured man. Without Cui Wuhui's full support, it is indeed difficult to resist.

This time when the barbarians went south, their family moved to Luoyang, and they were so noisy about staying behind that they almost took action.

In the end, it was he who stood up and expressed his willingness to stay in Chang'an to take care of the old house. This allowed the Cui family to gain a short period of peace and prevent it from falling apart.

But he knew he couldn't hold on for long...

Unless, grandfather can return safely.

However, this hope has become increasingly dim as time goes by.

But his father and sister both gave him an idea - marriage!

Marry with another aristocratic family and use external influence to consolidate your core position in the family. Only in this way can the Cui family survive.

Otherwise, once the position of the head of the Cui family falls into the hands of uncles with high ambitions and low abilities, the Cui family will withdraw from the ranks of first-class families in just a few years.

And this is where he has a headache.

I'm afraid no girl would be unwilling to marry the Cui family. What's more, Cui Liyan is also handsome and elegant, and his literary skills are so outstanding.

But once they get married, it means Cui Liyan will give up on Qiluo.

Let Qiluo be a child? Don't even think about it.

Cui Liyan has also been asking himself these days whether his feelings for Qiluo are sincere.

If he was sincere, then why did he hesitate and did not refuse directly when his father and sister proposed marriage for the long-term prosperity of the family.

In fact, love is still too far away for him.

At his age, it's normal to be attracted to beautiful things.

Moreover, he grew up reading books about saints, and was taught to put the interests of his family first, and his children's personal relationships and personal interests should naturally come second.

What's more, children of aristocratic families are not worthy of love.

Cui Yunyun, Cui Wanwan... these are lessons learned from the past.

If there are exceptions, Bei Yue Feihuai is probably the exception. He actually gave up the eldest daughter of the Qin family for a prisoner's daughter.

Of course, Liu Xiangjun has a big backer behind him, Li Nuo and Huang Jiujian, and even the aristocratic family would not dare to offend them too much. This is also the reason why the Beiyue clan and the Qin family finally chose to settle the matter, otherwise, the matter would really not be over.

What are you two muttering about?

Another young student asked curiously when he saw Cui Liyan and Lu Zhishan biting their ears.

Lu Zhishan held his head high and said seriously: Of course we are discussing strategies to defeat the enemy. I have a draft in mind and will discuss it when Zi'an comes.

Ha! Brother Lu, I admit that your literary talent is better than mine, but when it comes to the art of war, I am among the best in the academy. Even Master Wang once praised me.

The scholar also became eager to win.

Really? Let's see!

Hmph, we'll see.

…

A few moments.

Everyone finally saw a figure appear in the mountains, walking slowly.

Li Nuo looked up at the mountain gate and found hundreds of people standing to greet him. This posture seems a bit...

He immediately waved and said with a smile: All junior brothers are here.

Lu Zhishan was extremely excited and said: Brother Zi'an, we have been waiting for you for a long time. According to the report from the detective horse, the barbarian cavalry will set foot on Lushan in three days at most. Do you have any strategies to defeat the enemy?

Li Nuo quickly walked up to the mountain gate, looked at everyone, shook his head and said: There is no way to defeat the enemy. It is just to fill this hole with your life. Since you all stayed, you should be ready to sacrifice your life for the country, right?

After being glanced at by Li Nuo like this, everyone couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.

Although they were also willing to protect their home and country, Li Zian's words were too...direct.

This made them a little panicked.

If there is no hope of winning, then wouldn't it be useless to put your life into it?

Seeing everyone's unnatural expressions, Li Nuo secretly chuckled in his heart.

Of course he knew that these students had not experienced the fighting and tempering of real battlefields, and were still at the stage of talking about war on paper.

Of course you can't blame them.

Everyone slowly stands up.

Moreover, he was reluctant to sacrifice these junior brothers.

They are of great use and should be used where they should be used.

When it comes to frontal battles between armies, the role played by the powerless scholars is almost negligible, but when it comes to boosting morale and fighting in small areas, they are definitely second to none.

Haha, everyone, the war is coming soon. You don't have to do anything these days. Just recharge your batteries. It will be useful to you. But when you actually see the bloody fighting on the battlefield, don't be scared to death. ”

Li Nuo used a little provocation.

Zian, don't look down on others! Although we are not as high as you in cultivation, we will never frown when it comes to fighting on the battlefield.

My [verbal sword] has been sharpened, and I will definitely cut off the head of the barbarian general.

That's right! I have memorized the barbarian-killing war poem by heart. When the time comes, I will kill all the barbarians without leaving a single piece of armor behind.

Everyone started shouting.

Haha, as long as you are willing. I will go to the division commanders first to discuss strategies to retreat from the enemy.

Li Nuo smiled and entered the mountain courtyard, and soon came to the villa behind the mountain.

Wang Yangming is studying the military strategist's [Battle Flag Sandbox] with Du Yan.

Seeing Li Nuo coming, he clicked on the sand table and said, Zian, you came just in time. What do you think of setting up an elite army here to ambush?

What appears on the sand table is not the terrain of Lushan Mountain, but the most majestic pass in the world - Jianmen Pass, far away on Lingnan Road!

A poem once said that the road to Shu is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

As for the Jianmen Pass, it means that one man can guard the gate, and no one can open it.

The two hills on the left and right outside the pass are the best terrain for ambush.

Li Nuo looked at the [Sand Table] and said seriously: Have you decided to use [Jianmen Pass]?

This is the power of the military strategist [Battle Flag Sandbox]! As long as it is Dayin's country, it can be included in the [sand table] for simulation and deduction.

At the Phoenix Banquet, Li Nuo entered the [Sand Table] and had a deep understanding of it. It was definitely not an illusion! That is simply a real existence!

If it were [Jianmen Pass], the Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry would really be in trouble. And it is not that easy to simulate [Jianmen Pass], which will test the ability of the person holding the formation.

Of course, you have to find a way out for everything!

If the barbarians were able to crack the sand table, they would be doomed immediately.

So Li Nuo gave another thought-provoking reminder: Two division commanders, even the barbarians have already expected that we have a military sandbox.

Du Yan is well versed in the art of war. He has already made two preparations, saying: One light and one dark. [Jianmen Pass] can be used to confuse the barbarians, and it can delay at least 100,000 cavalry!

Wang Yangming pointed at a sand table and said, So, our real killer move is here!

Li Nuo took a closer look and couldn't help but gasped: Isn't this too risky?

He never expected that Wang Yangming, who was always known for his stability, would actually make dangerous moves!

It turned out that this strategy was to allow the barbarian cavalry to march straight in and march to the gates of Chang'an. And what they have to do is to guard Chang'an City for ten days.

The elite troops ambushing outside the city went straight to Huanglong and killed the barbarian commander!

Of course, this is naturally extremely difficult. Not to mention that the barbarian commander is always surrounded by ten thousand tiger and leopard cavalry guards, he himself is a third-level barbarian!

It is even said that a great barbarian shaman is accompanying the army south this time!

This great shaman who is proficient in witchcraft, power, and magic is the real enemy.

Wang Yangming analyzed calmly: Brother Du and I conducted several deductions last night. Only by making dangerous moves can we have any chance of winning.

Du Yan nodded and said solemnly: That's true. Alas, we still have too few cards in our hands.

Li Nuo thought carefully and said, Ten days... I'm afraid Chang'an City won't be able to defend it for that long.

Du Yan said: Ten days is still the least. After all, it is not that easy to find the barbarian commander.

Li Nuo: Then who will defend the city?

Du Yan's eyes widened: So, you are willing to assassinate Man Shuai?

Li Nuo curled his lips and said angrily: Scholar Du Da, you have already planned my plan, right?

Du Yan laughed loudly: No matter how I plot against you, you still have to agree in the end.

In the last sand table deduction, it was precisely because Li Nuo went straight to Huanglong and captured Princess Qingyang, who was playing the role of the demon commander, that the human race of Shangyang Pass on his side won a great victory.

Of course, all the credit goes to Li Nuo, which makes Du Yanxin feel aggrieved.

As a powerful military strategist, Du Yan knew very well that Li Zian had an extremely keen insight into the battlefield. This is his unparalleled talent in the art of war!

Precisely because of Li Zian's unique card, Du Yan and Wang Yangming discussed it all night before finally deciding to adopt this seemingly dangerous tactic, but with the greatest benefits.

I'm afraid that before I can find the barbarian commander, Chang'an will be captured by the barbarian cavalry.

Li Nuo said worriedly.

If that were the case, even killing the barbarian commander would be useless.

Wang Yangming's eyes flashed: We can also set up more mazes and combine the virtual and the real. As long as you can hold on for the first five days, your Jianghu Order should be able to play its role. There will be an endless stream of Jianghu heroes coming to help defend it. If we hold on to the city for another five days, we should be fine.

If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs.

This was indeed the only way to repel the barbarians.

Indecisiveness leads to disaster.

Li Nuo gritted his teeth and said: Okay! That's it! Maybe even if the barbarian shaman doesn't come, then no one can crack the [War Flag Sandbox], and [Jianmen Pass] can stop the barbarians for at least two months. Once winter comes, the barbarians will collapse.

But going deep alone... there is no need. Since we want to kill the enemy general, the number of people should not be too large. I only need three helpers!

Li Nuo stretched out three fingers.

Wang Yangming said: Who do you want?

Li Nuo: Qingyang, Jinyang, and Zhang Jianshen!

The two great scholars looked at each other with confused expressions on their faces.

This choice was beyond their expectations.

Du Yan said blankly: Boy, did you find the wrong person?

Li Nuo smiled and said nothing.

Du Yan said angrily: Reason!

Li Nuo then said: Her Highness Qingyang is the daughter of the late emperor, she should be able to hold the [Human Emperor Sword], right?

Wang Yangming took a cold breath: Good boy, are you paying attention to this?

Du Yan thought for a moment and was overjoyed: Good boy, you are so thoughtful!

The Human Emperor Sword ranks first in the Magic Weapon List!

This time the barbarians went south, they most likely brought the Tiger Soul Sword with them!

Li Nuo is defensive.

As for the [Human Emperor Sword], only heirs of the royal family can use it. Of course, it is not easy to get the recognition of [Human Emperor Sword].

At the very least, the two emperors Jingshun and Wenzong were not recognized by the [Human Emperor Sword]. This also made everyone almost forget about the [Human Emperor Sword].

Now, Dayin is in great trouble and the country is unstable. [Human Emperor Sword] does not look at the monk's face but the Buddha's face, so he should reluctantly agree to give orders to His Highness Qingyang.

After all, the magic weapon has spirit!

Then what happened to the little princess Jinyang? Could it be that you are afraid that Qingyang will fail, so you want to let Jinyang give it a try.

Du Yan joked.

After all, Jinyang's swordsmanship talent is even stronger than Qingyang's.

Li Nuo smiled and said nothing.

In fact, he has another plan.

Jinyang is the beloved disciple of the Imperial Master. If he is really in danger, can the Imperial Master stand by and watch?

Then why did the third person choose Zhang Jianshen? He never wants to see you in his life.

Wang Yangming looked at Li Nuo with great interest.

Zhang Jianshen is known as the number one pick, and Li Zian's shadow will shadow him for the rest of his life!
