Roglis and his party did not bring too many retinues, and the group of fifty or sixty people set off for a week and did not even leave the realm of the kingdom. Although the wind and snow stopped, the snow was too deep for the horses to travel. Most of the time, it's people leading the horses. When it got dark that day, Guderian and his party settled down in a mountain col, and the ten mages who accompanied them began to set up a magic transmission base station on the top of the mountain. Along the way, Rogris and his entourage are also tasked with setting up a magic teleportation base station, otherwise the connection between countries will be too troublesome. These teleportation base stations are the latest research results of the kingdom's mages, and because of the war, they have not yet had time to seek cooperation from Dayu and Totai to set them up, so they can only be set up unilaterally by the kingdom. This trip to Roglis can just be set up along the way. Therefore, most of the items carried by the group are necessary materials for the transmission base station.

The setting up of the magic teleportation base station is not too difficult, but the combination of some magic circles is more complicated, and the materials to keep the magic circle running are too scarce - the kind of charged crystal ore that magic cannons need. The mages used spells to guide the earth and stone to build six seven or eight meter-high spires on the top of the mountain where the col where they were stationed to form a six-pointed star circle with a radius of tens of meters, and then inlaid various materials on these spires to depict various magic circles, and then inlaid charging crystals into each node of input energy, and the erection of the base station was completed after activation. These charging crystals have been charged by the mages in advance, and theoretically can keep the base station running for about ten years. It was already midnight when the mages had done all this, and shortly after activating the base station and sending a communication to the battlefield and military headquarters in the southern border of the kingdom, they received a battle report from the southern border of the kingdom. So the mages hurried down the hill to report to Rogris.

Rogris, who was already about to go to bed, was woken up by the mages and learned about the battle report, and hurriedly summoned the brigadier generals who accompanied him to inform them of the battle report.

A dozen or so people sat around the campfire, and after listening to Rogris's relay, they all fell silent for a while.

"General, did the enemy pursue the commander when he withdrew?" Lanardo asked, breaking the silence.

Rogris shook his head and said, "No." What the enemy said to the commander should be true, and they should not attack again before the beginning of spring. ”

"I didn't expect it...... Master Martin has fallen, Lord Douglas is wounded and incapacitated, and Lord Natasha is unconscious......" Lanardo said worriedly.

"What is the General's plan for gathering everyone?" asked Gus.

"Shrink your rest time and rush to the front line of Dayu as soon as possible. The erection of the communication base station should be set up by the mages when necessary. "Rogrith arrived. In the light of the roaring bonfire, he looked solemn.

Everyone nodded. The news from the south is not optimistic. The current situation of the kingdom is difficult to open, and we can only see if there can be a breakthrough on Dayu's side. After all, the high-end strength of the Dayu army is the largest in the mainland. After agreeing on a rough route and plan, the crowd dispersed, leaving Rogris alone to sit by the campfire in a daze.

So far, the battle has basically been a large-scale group army operation, and it is very difficult to rely on a separate unit or some special formed arms to open up the situation. Roglis has been haunted by the failure of his last plan behind enemy lines. He was a competitive young general, and until Guderian had no amnesia, he felt that he had always been the first of the young generals of the kingdom. Regardless of personal force and strategy. However, everything has changed since Guderian lost his memory and returned from the Battle of Asgar Plains. First of all, what Roglis had thought was the youngest major general was nothing more than a joke - Guderian's military exploits were suppressed by França. Secondly, in terms of personal force, Guderian was not necessarily worse than him. Even stronger than him, the one-faced Putan Ulis on the plains of Asgar did not die, and fled with Natasha from the enemy's territory of the underworld and killed two enemy archmages. Finally, in terms of strategy, Legris's previous victories were cavalry and basically did not have much tactics to speak of, while Guderian was born in infantry and performed remarkably in the Asgard Plains and in the El Niño Line, no worse than Rogris. When Guderian and Natasha returned to the surface human camp from the underworld, they analyzed and supplemented Rogris's plans behind enemy lines after his defeat, which made Rogris's competitive psychology begin to trouble. Of course, Loglis would not stumble Guderian behind his back, he was a proud soldier and general. Loglis just wanted to outperform Guderian on the battlefield and make himself worthy of the first major general in the army. Therefore, Rogris took advantage of this envoy to Dayu as a staff officer, and secretly made up his mind: he would open up the situation in Dayu and compete with Guderian on the kingdom front!

These careful thoughts, no one can see except Roglis himself. In fact, Roglis has been secretly competing with Guderian when he was still in military school. If there is a reason why Roglis does not like Guderian and wants to cover Guderian's limelight, it is the mutual feeling between young people. Some people, especially those who are equally good, don't like each other from the first time they look at each other. An indescribable intuition is that it is unpleasant and not the right way. In addition, the uproar between Guderian and Ellie and Sophie made Rogris even more disgusted with Guderian at that time. Therefore, when Guderian returned from amnesia in the Asgar Plains to serve as Odin's personal guard, although Roglis knew Guderian, he did not take the initiative to greet him or say anything good in front of the marshal. Of course, these old things have no effect on Logris's as a proud and upright soldier and general.

Roglis pondered for a moment, then stood up and drew his sword from the campfire and swung it lightly.

"Guderian and His Excellency Gandalf have studied blood control, and I don't know if there is any progress. Rogrith gently brushed the blade of the long sword with his left hand, and said to himself to the bonfire: "I think he should have reached the point of subtlety, otherwise it would be impossible to break through the extremely cold realm and carry the wrath of Thor to break through the protective shield and kill two archmages......"

Instead of wearing armor, Rogrice was dressed in a black cotton robe. At this time, his long black hair that fluttered above his head was blown up by a cold wind, and the bonfire was blown by the wind and the jumping light surrounded him, and Rogris, who was holding a long sword, was like a descending god of fire.

Rogris's sword slashed down against the cold wind, a glittering arc of light piercing through the flames of the campfire. At this moment, the flames were cut in two and remained in this state for two or three seconds before reuniting. And the cold wind seemed to be split into two under this arc light, and for a moment Rogris's long flying hair fell and stopped.

A few seconds later, the half-human-tall campfire burst apart.

“...... My mental strength seems to have reached a bottleneck...... You can't make progress after you get into it...... It seems that we will have to find an opportunity to talk to Lord Gandalf as well......" Roglis said to himself, frowning. Saying that, the sword was returned to the sheath, ignoring the scattered bonfire, and went back to his tent by himself.

...... On a sunny afternoon, Natasha follows Sophie to the Mage's Tower in the capital. This was Natasha's first visit to the capital in seventeen years, and she had been studying magic with her teacher in her hometown town and serving her teacher. Her introductory mage was only a mid-level mage, and she had stayed on the threshold of the middle level all her life. But this does not prevent Natasha from admiring and loving her teacher. It's just that her teacher was too old when she took her in...... So much so that when Natasha was fifteen years old, her teacher was confined to a wheelchair...... Until last year, he passed away peacefully. A long time ago, when Natasha surpassed the middle level and reached the high level, her teacher asked her to go to the mage tower in the capital of the kingdom, but Natasha did not come to take care of the old man. So, this year Natasha is here.

Sophie is Natasha's cousin and the closest person to Natasha other than her teacher. Natasha's mother separated from her father at an early age, and her mother died when Natasha was twelve years old. And Sophie's mother, Natasha's aunt, had a similar fate - Sophie's mother opened a tailor shop in Yanjing to make a living, and Sophie also died of illness when she was fifteen years old. In the past, when Aunt Natasha was still there, she would often take Sophie back to the town to visit Natasha, and since her aunt also died, Natasha was left with Sophie's cousin in addition to her teacher. Therefore, after coming to the capital, I found Sophie for the first time.

Sophie happily led Natasha to walk on the streets of Yanjing, with the bustle of people, shops and vendors, Natasha was dazzled by a prosperous scene.

"Cousin, I'll take you to the Mage Tower later. It's close. Let's wait here for someone first. Sophie was wearing a white dress, her long black hair was simply tied behind her, and she was already slim at the age of sixteen. Of course, Natasha, who is a cousin, is not bad, and even more popular, but her simple clothes make her not as eye-catching as Sophie.

"Waiting for whom. Natasha asked curiously, and the two stopped in the shade of a tree in front of a stone bridge.

"My boyfriend!" Sophie's pure, happy smile made Natasha look a little dazzled.

"Ah......h......h

"He's here, over there—" Sophie pulled Natasha up the stone bridge and pointed to a white-robed young man with long blond hair fifty meters away from the bridge, and then shouted loudly: "Guderian~here~" Sophie's voice carried a hint of sweetness.

Natasha followed Sophie's finger and couldn't take her eyes off it - the white-robed young man with long blond hair suddenly stretched out after hearing Sophie's cry, like ice bathed in fire. Natasha didn't know why she had a hint of jealousy and envy......
