Gu Zhuangdian circled around Ding Kui and asked, "Why do I feel that you are a little different?"

"Well, Elder, when I last supported Tianmen Town, I was actually a mid-term staff mage's cultivation, but I didn't study enough magic, so I only reported the initial stage when I signed up.

The first two days were out and just broke through to the late stage, so I didn't rush back to the guild to stabilize my cultivation. "Ding Kui took out the matter of the breakthrough of his magic cultivation, which happened to cover up the truth of his cultivation of fighting spirit for breakthrough.

"Regardless of your teacher's level, at least his vision is quite good, and your qualifications are at the middle and upper level in the kingdom. Before the age of thirty, you can hope to become a tower mage, and maybe you can become a forbidden mage in the future. Gu Zhuangdian believed Ding Kui's explanation.

"That's a state that President Gu hasn't even reached, I only dare to think about it, and I don't expect to be able to do it. Ding Kui began to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf.

"I missed the perfect opportunity to break through, it's not like you. No, don't go anywhere if you stay in the guild these days, I'll make a magic practice plan for you, and I'll personally help you stabilize your cultivation. Gu Zhuangdian seemed to have suddenly found a goal to strive for, and the whole person became excited.

Ding Kui is lacking guidance in magic, and when he enters the stage of the late staff magician, how to accumulate and break through to the tower magician? This question is recorded in Tai Shugong's magic notes, but it is far from detailed, and he can take the opportunity to ask Gu Zhuangdian for advice.

"Are you Qi or Fire?" asked Gu Zhuangdian again.

"Well, the teacher asked me to study both qi and fire. Ding Kui didn't tell a lie about this, the magic inheritance left by Tai Shugong is the dual cultivation of qi and fire.

"Oh, your teacher is not an ordinary person, he actually knows how to study both departments, this is the road to the Fa God. It seems that I don't have to ask Master Rong to accept you as an apprentice, I will be in charge of the magic training of the fire system, and as for the qi system, you can go to Tianmen Town to see more books when you have time. Gu Zhuangdian was impressed by Ding Kui's teacher.

Specializing in the first series of magic is easier to advance before opening the tower mage, and magicians with low qualifications basically follow this path; the two main systems of concurrent cultivation are much slower to advance in the early stage, but the more you go to the back, the easier it is to break through the bottleneck, and genius disciples with advanced inheritance will take this path.

Judging from Ding Kui's both qi and fire cultivation, his teacher is at least a forbidden magician, and he may still be an elemental magician. Gu Zhuangdian originally didn't want to bury Ding Kui's good qualifications, so he asked Rongci to accept Ding Kui's personal teaching, but now he realized that his ideas were a bit redundant.

It is precisely for this reason that Gu Zhuangdian is even more strict with Ding Kui's magic practice, and will never allow Ding Kui to waste time on physical exercise, and deliberately endures some of Ding Kui's bad habits for this reason.

Ding Kui's biggest bad habit in casting magic is that he likes to raise his hands high.

Every mage may have their own minor flaws, which can be tolerated as long as they don't interfere with the casting of magic. The explanation given by Ding Kui was that he could concentrate his mental power more, and Gu Zhuangdian did not force him to put his hands back on his chest.

Raising your hands high may have a greater impact on other magicians, because it is easy to get tired by doing so, and you can't raise your hands at the end of a battle, but Ding Kui is an exception, this strong magician will not get tired for a day with his hands held high.

In fact, Ding Kui is also bitter in his heart, it would be a lie to say that he is not tired at all, who let his magic output be on the top of his head, in order to hide Gu Zhuangdian, he had to do this, anyway, he can exercise his arm strength by the way.

During the period when Ding Kui was practicing magic, the battlefield of Nannuma Prefecture was full of fierce battles.

The greatest tragedy since the beginning of the war has been none other than Dildon, who has recently made the right choice, but inevitably has a bad reputation.

Due to the difficult terrain of the last three cities of Nanqiu County and the abundance of defenders, Meng transferred the main force to attack Yanling County, and Jinping County was supported by a large army of troops, and Cao's army did not attack strongly, and also sent more troops south to Yanling County.

Di Tanglong's more than 50,000 people were about to be dumplings, but fortunately, the news of Yanling County was not cut off, Di Tanglong knew the grim situation, and he had no choice but to organize troops to break through.

It's okay to break through, but who will break the back?

Even if the breakthrough was successful this time, the loss of Yanling County would still be a big defeat for Di Tanglong, and he couldn't wait to lead his troops and die on the battlefield.

Gu Huaiyu, the commander of the 119th Division, stood up, "Commander of the Legion, who will command the main force after you go to the break? It is the brothers of the 20th Army who will take us over.

Yanling County was originally my defense area, and I was killed in the battle in Chunluwan Water Village, and I couldn't escape from my defense area to survive. This time, I can only lead the troops, and whoever wants to fight with me will humiliate me. ”

Gu Huaiyu said this, and no one was embarrassed to fight with him for this errand to die. However, no one could see his comrades-in-arms die in vain, and Di Tanglong ordered to give the broken troops a pair of fine armor.

The defensive power of fine armor is not lower than that of heavy armor, and the weight is much lighter, and generally only officers at the level of captain can wear it, in addition to the personal guards of division commanders and corps commanders can be equipped.

After searching the warehouse in Yanling County, all the divisions and regiments gathered some of them, and finally gathered 5,000 elite armor for Gu Huaiyu, so that he could lead 5,000 elite armor soldiers as the main force to break the rear.

Di Tanglong led his troops to break through to the west, with three divisions of the Twentieth Army Corps outside, and 5,000 elite armored soldiers behind him to block the pursuers, this strategic shift was very successful, and 40,000 people finally escaped from the encirclement.

Gu Huaiyu led his troops to fight fiercely with the pursuers at the foot of Yanling Mountain for a whole day and a night, so that more than 200,000 pursuers could not take a step forward.

He broke up the 5,000 elite armor soldiers into fifty small circles and entangled them with the pursuers, making it impossible for the enemy magicians to cast large-scale magic.

If it weren't for the big gap in strength, the commander of the Seventh Army of Meng State, who was responsible for commanding the pursuing troops, would not be an ordinary person, and he relied on attrition tactics to polish the broken elite soldiers of Shaodian Kingdom.

In the end, from Gu Huaiyu down, plus more than 20 magicians, more than 5,000 people were all killed. The fierceness of the battle shocked the ancient and modern, and it is said that the soldiers of the Shaodian Kingdom did not have a complete piece of armor, and the damage of the fine armor was all to the extent that it could not be repaired.

The commander of the Seventh Army of the Meng Kingdom sighed: "If all the troops of the Shaodian Kingdom are like this, I will be the first to lead the troops to withdraw." ”

Ditanglon's main force joined up with the troops of the Twentieth Army Corps, and after counting his troops, he retained more than 70,000 troops, but two division commanders under him had already sacrificed their lives.

This large army that escaped from Yanling County retreated to Huashan County, and the entire territory of Yanling County fell, becoming the first county of the Shaodian Kingdom to be completely lost.

On the surface of the Tongyuan River, which has attracted much attention from all sides, Hua Song led the remnants of the defeated army to converge with the advance of the Eighth Army Corps, and the main forces of the naval armies of Meng and Cao also approached.

The sailors of the three water villages of Xijiang, Maoerwan and Lianbakou, plus the fleet of Huasong, together were less than one-third of the main forces of the Meng and Cao water armies, and Jiang Xi decided not to fight hard with the enemy on the water, and chose to land at the junction of Nannuma Prefecture and Yangyuan Prefecture.

The Eighth Army landed in Nannuma Prefecture, which greatly boosted the morale of the 14th Army, and they hurried to Jinping County, where they joined the 11th Army and fought Cao outside the county town, forcing Cao's army to retreat a hundred miles.

The 1st Army of Zhongdi marched smoothly, set up a large camp behind the remaining three small cities in Nanqiu County, and sent troops to organize a small counterattack for the three cities, completely consolidating the defense of this line.

The Lindi 1st Army and the Lindi 2nd Army were only three days away from Huashan County, and they chose to support Di Tanglong and block the direction of the main attack of the combined forces of Meng and Cao.

The Haitian First Army arrived at Nanjing, the state capital of Nanmara Prefecture.

Nannuma Prefecture Mu Shao Dianxi went out of the city to greet the local legion of Hailin Prefecture, this is a rare courtesy of the local legion, different from Shao Dianjian in Zhongwangzhou, Shao Dianjian is with the nature of supervising the army, and Shao Dianxi is smiling face.

Since the start of the war, Shao Dianxi has not had a day of peace of mind, and the two county guards under his command have been killed in battle and captured by the other, so he is worried about which day it will be his turn. If the enemy army hits Nanjing City, everyone can run, only Shao Dianxi can't leave here, and the state pastor must live and die with the state city.

These four local legions came a little late, but their arrival reversed the disadvantage of Shaodian Kingdom in terms of strength in one fell swoop, counting the Eighth Army that had landed, and the Twentieth Army that could not move half, there were more than 800,000 soldiers to fight on the land of Nannuma Prefecture.

Meng landed five legions, Cao landed two legions, and they were 700,000 when they were full, and the strength of the two sides was roughly equal when various factors were counted.

Shao Dianxi finally didn't have to worry about the loss of the state city, and now it seems that the possibility of Nanjing City being attacked is quite low, and the Southern Demon Branch has begun to send high-level magicians to the war zone to support with confidence.

The first military order issued by Jiang Xiyi, the supreme commander of the war, when he came ashore: ordering the naval forces of Shanyuan Prefecture and Hexi Prefecture to jointly sweep the border of Qi State, and warning that the army of Qi State dared to land on Nannuma Prefecture, which would definitely make Qi's Jiangdong Prefecture never have peace.

The Eighth Army was intercepted by the Qi navy on the way south of the Tongyuan River, Jiang Xi felt great strategic pressure, and the three kingdoms of Meng, Cao, and Qi joined forces to make it very difficult for Shaodian to deal with it, and it was necessary to mobilize the troops far away from the war zone, which could relieve the pressure on the frontal battlefield.

However, this time, Qi Shao was determined to get along with Shaodian Dan, so he not only sent three legions to Jiangdong Prefecture, but also asked Qi Shuang to lead two legions to fight in Nannuma Prefecture.

On the second day when Cao Jun was forced to retreat outside Jinping County, Qi Shuang's Shuai Qi appeared outside Jinping County with Cao Jun, and the main forces of the Meng and Cao coalition armies of Yanling County were also on their way to Jinping.

At this moment, a situation was formed in which the combined forces of Meng, Cao, and Qi stormed Jinping County.
