Hua Rong stood up amidst the stunned silence of all the young soldiers.
They quickly beat the bandits to a pulp and threw them into the river.
Since these people have no intention of leaving any survivors and are even planning to dig such a huge pit for his own father, Hua Rong will naturally not show any mercy.
Even in such cold weather, Hua Rong didn't forget to break their hands and feet.
These people have absolutely no chance of surviving!
On the other side, things have indeed started to escalate in Jiangcheng!
Many luxury cars were parked in front of the Marshal's Mansion. The parents of the young soldiers had come to ask for their sons back.
These people are all from extraordinary backgrounds.
This includes not only the powerful and wealthy in Jiangcheng, but also many people who are not even from Jiangcheng.
Instead, she sent her son to this military academy because of its reputation.
Now that the fates of all these people's sons are unknown, they simply can't sit still any longer.
"General, you must give us an explanation for this!"
“That’s right, they’re all still children. How are we supposed to suppress bandits? Even you, Commander, can’t handle the bandits of Yueyang Mountain!”
“Yes, Young Master Fang has really gone too far this time! And now the news has leaked out. We’ve offended quite a few people in our lives. What are we supposed to do if our enemies kidnap our child?”
"..."
Fang Shikai felt his head was about to explode as he listened to the rambling of these well-dressed people in front of him.
If Feng De hadn't been there to help, Fang Shikai might have pulled out his gun.
Give them each a bullet, and shut them up forever.
"Bang!"
"alright!"
In the end, Fang Shikai couldn't hold back any longer, so he pulled out his gun and fired a shot directly at the ceiling.
He then shouted something, and everyone shut up.
However, the expressions on their faces were not very pleasant.
Their son's fate is now unknown; are they not even allowed to say a few words?
Having a gun doesn't mean you can't have one.
Don't they have any?
However, they also knew that they had no intention of going against Fang Shikai now that they were on his territory.
Besides, they came here today to resolve the issue.
They were also confident that Fang Shikai wouldn't dare to do anything to them.
You should know that if Fang Shikai were to take action against them...
Even if they were just ants, all those ants together would be enough to kill this elephant!
"So, how does the commander-in-chief think this matter should be resolved?"
Fang Shikai sneered, "If you people hadn't come to visit, I would have already led my troops to Yueyang Mountain and wiped out that group of bandits! Your sons might have already returned!"
"Now you're asking me what I should do? How the hell should I know?! You're making a scene! It's not just your sons who're with the bandits, my only son is there too!"
Fearing that Fang Shikai would get into an argument with these people, Feng De quickly changed the subject.
"Moreover, our Marshal's Mansion kept this matter well under wraps, so how did you find out?"
Yu Guangche's father, Old Master Yu, spoke up: "I feel that someone deliberately let us know!"
Upon hearing Old Master Yu's words, Feng De immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
That's right! He was indeed trying to steer the discussion towards conspiracy theories.
Old Master Yu's words were exactly what he wanted to hear.
"That's right. It was kept well hidden at first. But now the whole city knows. If any of your sons were to make a mistake, who do you think would benefit?"
Seeing that everyone was stumped by his question, Feng De continued, "In short, the one who will benefit is not our Marshal's Mansion! Our Marshal's only son is also currently missing, his fate unknown."
"Moreover, even if Young Master Fang is young and ignorant, he would never lead a group of students to fight bandits."
"He's not that stupid, so I now suspect that he didn't even write that letter!"
Feng De hadn't suspected anything before, but now these people had come to his door.
After thinking about it carefully, he figured out the key point.
He had known Fang Shikai for many years and had always served as Fang Shikai's advisor.
Given time, such things can be sorted out.
The reason I didn't think about it too much before was simply because I was too concerned!
"So, someone wants us to fight each other."
Some people who weren't stupid figured out the key point and frowned.
Feng De nodded. "Moreover, I suspect he doesn't just want us to fight; he has other motives. So we can't rush things now, or we'll just be playing into the hands of the person behind it all!"
"Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!"
No sooner had Feng De finished speaking than someone outside the door loudly announced the news.
He ran in yelling, "Something terrible has happened!"
Everyone present immediately stood up and looked at that person.
The man was from the Marshal's Mansion. When he saw everyone's eyes on him, his legs went weak and he knelt down.
"What on earth is wrong?! If you don't explain yourself clearly, I'll shoot you right now!"
At this moment, Fang Shikai was also very anxious. He deeply regretted saying those things to Hua Rong.
This led to someone finding fault with him, causing such a huge incident.
He couldn't possibly not care about Hua Rong, after all, Hua Rong was his only son.
This entire marshal's mansion, along with the thousands upon thousands of soldiers under his command, will all eventually belong to him.
"Someone just came by with a message saying that the young master and the others are all dead!"
"Ah! My son, you died such a terrible death! Commander Fang, I'm going to fight you to the death!"
"My baby, your mother is at home making snacks and waiting for you to come home to eat, how could you die!"
"My son, how can you bear to let your father, an old man with white hair, bury his son with black hair!"
"..."
Fang Shikai sat down in a daze, unable to utter a single word.
Even Feng De's calm demeanor gradually cracked, revealing an indescribable sadness.
In an instant, the entire Marshal's Mansion was filled with sorrow, and the cries of grief could be heard far and wide.
This caused passersby to quicken their pace and keep their distance from the Marshal's Mansion.
Just then, footsteps sounded at the entrance of the Marshal's Mansion.
Immediately afterwards, the clear voices of the boys rang out: "Dad, why are you crying?"
"Wow, Dad, why are you crying so horribly? And who are you saying is dead? I'm not dead yet!"
"Oh my god, Dad, you didn't cheat on Mom with another woman and have a child out of wedlock, did you?"
"..."
The crying stopped instantly. Everyone looked towards the entrance and saw their son standing in front of the Marshal's Mansion, looking at them with a bewildered expression.
They stared blankly at the group of teenagers.
Everyone felt like they'd lost their minds—their son wasn't dead?
So why were they crying just now?
However, the Marshal's Mansion soon became lively again.
"You little rascal, you don't learn anything good, you just try to be a hero and fight bandits all the time! Now look what you've done! You've made your old man lose face!"
"I'll beat you to death! I'll beat you to death!"
"Oh, Father, please forgive me! Besides, we didn't go to fight bandits, we just had a meal together!"
