Ding Kui unexpectedly found Dai Le in the crowd of the 113th Division, remembered the old things in Pingzhong County, and specially asked Ding Fen to entertain Dai Le.

Ding Fen did not forget the big brother who helped her get ahead, and enthusiastically took Dai Le to visit the camp in Baiqiu Town.

Pi Zhi saw that his subordinates had an old relationship with Ding Kui, and of course he was willing to let Dai Le have a good relationship with Ding Kui and others, so he simply stayed in Baiqiu Town for one night. Their task is to escort Feng Run un, there is no hard and fast time, as long as Feng Run is safely returned to the base camp.

There are many jokes circulating in Baiqiu Town, all of which are about how Ding Kui was captured alive, because the parties are unwilling to tell the truth, so everyone basically guesses.

Pi Zhi asked Ding Kui, but Ding Kui only said a few words, and he avoided the truth and brought it to the fore, and he didn't ask anything, but it turned out that it was not as good as the joke that his subordinates inquired about.

By the time the 113th Division returned, they hadn't figured out how Feng Run had fallen into Ding Kui's hands.

There are many ulterior secrets in the whole thing, Ding Kui has something he doesn't want to expose, and Feng Run has a plot that he doesn't want to make public, and the two intend to veil this matter with a veil of mystery.

I don't know if it was frightened by Feng Run's abduction, Shifeng City's own army abandoned the city and moved to the vicinity of the county town, and the junction of the two armies returned to before Yudi launched a surprise attack.

Jiang Xi, the commander of the war zone, came to Jiaxin City, and the generals from all walks of life responded to the call.

"Is there a large-scale battle before the New Year?" Jiang Xi focused all his energy on the battlefield in Nanqiu County, and put aside the affairs on the border first.

"The enemy forces have shrunk dramatically lately, with tens of thousands of troops at each rally point, hundreds of mages, and nearby reinforcements within a few hours, and a large-scale operation may not be able to achieve positive results. Jiang Zhi spoke on behalf of the Eighth Army Corps.

"The Kong army has suffered some casualties recently, and the soldiers are homesick, so they may not be demoralized in the battle years ago. Kong Cheng did not shy away from the poor status quo of his subordinates.

"Our five divisions are divided into three cities, and the defense is more than enough, but the attack is insufficient, if we can gather together, we can try to attack the enemy. "Zhang Jie represents the 21st Army Corps.

"It's going to be the Chinese New Year, and the militia naturally wants to go home, and those who can't go home have no intention of fighting. If Jiang Shuai has an order, his subordinates can promise a heavy reward and fight to the death. Ding Kui's words were ambiguous.

"Well, then you discuss planning a small-scale operation, attacking instead of defending, and then preparing for a large-scale attack when the Twelve Army Corps is formed in the next year. "Jiang Xi does not have to fight, and he must make corresponding arrangements according to the situation of the troops.

"But you can't take it lightly, Yudi can shrink his forces and raid again, I don't want any of you to have news of defeat again. "He can't always keep the news of the city's recovery from reporting

Before the Chinese New Year, you must report to the Commander's Mansion, how many places in Nanqiu County are still in the hands of your own army.

The most dangerous were Dingjiang City, Xining City, and Shifeng City, and the rest of the city was relatively safe, and Kong Cheng had to ask his brother troops for help.

"In this way, the Kong family army sent two divisions to garrison Xixuancheng and Huatongcheng, and I moved the headquarters of the Eighth Army to Jiaxincheng, so that the 72nd and 76th divisions were stationed in Xining City, the 73rd and 79th divisions were stationed in Shifeng City, and the 71st division returned to the headquarters, so is it a good arrangement?"

In addition to thinking about the Eighth Army, Jiang Zhi also has to think about Jiang Xi, he is equivalent to the chief of staff of the theater, and he can't let the Kong family army continue to face the dilemma.

"The 201st Division can advance from Boundary City to Wangxia City, and form horns with Ximu City, which is enough to ensure the safety of Boundary City, and can also quickly reinforce Shifeng City and Xining City. Zhang Jie also gave advice on the side.

"Thank you so much to Chief of Staff Jiang, it must be no problem for the Kong Jiajun to defend the second-tier cities, I obey Chief of Staff Jiang's arrangement. ”

There are less than 60,000 people left in the Kong family's army, and more than 20,000 or 30,000 have been drawn, and there is no problem in protecting Kong Cheng to defend a city.

As a result, the largest military group in the entire Nanqiu County was in Baiqiu Town, and the other troops were scattered in cities close to the front line.

"Then leave it to me to attack the enemy, and I will find a way to threaten the county seat and the Chunlu City area. "Ding Kui had to take on more offense.

"Yes, Command will try to cooperate with you. "Jiang Zhi can not use many troops, only the 71st, 80th and 111th divisions.

As if it had made an agreement with the Shaodian State, it did not launch a large-scale military operation, but only sent a small number of troops to test the deployment of the Shaodian army.

Regardless of the approaching New Year, Prince Haichao went to Zhenjing City to ask for negotiations with Shao Dianxiao, and claimed to have brought Shao Dianrong's goodwill.

Shao Dianxiao left behind the free days, picked up the heavy burden, and continued to grind with himself.

"This time, the queen made a great concession, and only asked to keep Dongxiong City and Chunluwan Water Village, claiming to be the territory that your country had given to Prince Jiman, and our country had absolute jurisdiction and garrison. "I think I bring very good conditions.

"In my opinion, this can be considered, but there are many important ministers in the court who oppose the compensation of Prince Jiman, and even the Prince Regent cannot ignore their opinions. I can visit those important ministers and exchange views with them, and you can also talk to them privately. Negotiations cannot be confined to the two of us. ”

Shao Dianxiao felt that this condition could not pass the level of the Government Council.

As the rebels' offensive in Zhenwangzhou was blocked, Jin Man continued to win victories in Zhongwangzhou, and the attitude of the Commander's Office became more and more tough; the Senate even happily sent people to ask for a discussion on the issue of redeeming the feudal run.

"Sir, Madame has written to you if you want to go back in the New Year?"

"Strange, why didn't she give me a letter? Ding Kui pressed Ding Fen on the chair, "Tell me honestly, what kind of report did you give to your wife?"

"Wronged, Xiaohua doesn't dare!" Ding Fen tasted the helplessness of life, and neither the lord nor the lady could offend.

"Although your surname is Ding, you don't owe anything to the Ding family, you are not my domestic servant, you are different from Ding Chuan, Ding Zhong and Ding Cai.

If you respect a little bit, you can call me and Mrs. Luan'er, and it's okay if you don't call if you're unhappy.

Whenever you leave me, you can take your belongings and property with you, and I won't take anything back.

You, just do what you like, don't be a big man, understand?"

"Woo woo, the master doesn't want me again!"

"Clam, don't you understand?" Ding Kui didn't expect Ding Fen to not understand those words, and there was a misunderstanding.

"Ouch, why is Sister Xiaohua crying?"

Ruan Xingzhu happened to walk into the Chinese military tent and ran into Ding Fen crying bitterly.

Ding Kui had no choice but to explain.

"Silly girl, don't think so much, Brother Kui will never drive you away!" Ruan Xingzhu hugged Ding Fen and helped her wipe her tears.

"Really, really, really?" said Ding Fen.

"Really, that's what I mean. Ding Kui gave up reasoning with Ding Fen.

finally coaxed Ding Fen and persuaded her to rest, Ruan Xingzhu came back and complained: "How old is she?

"You're kidnapped, you're kidnapped, and you didn't cry when you were locked up in a dungeon. ”

"I grew up with my parents, Xiaohua is different, I have been insecure since I was a child, you really don't understand the mind of a girl. ”

"This last sentence is true, I never understood it. ”

"What's the argument you two are arguing about?" another girl popped up outside the tent.

"I didn't make any noise, just discussed some small issues with Brother Kui. Ruan Xingzhu went over and grabbed Lu Ying and said what happened just now.

"Giggles, my brother has been facing rude soldiers for a long time, and the two wives are all arranged by the family, and I haven't seen who he really chases. Uh, you don't count. Lu Ying suddenly found that he had lost his words.

She thinks that Ruan Xingzhu and Li Fei were both posted upside down to Ding Kui, and it is impossible to say that Ding Kui chased after them.

"Why are you studying these, you have nothing to do when you are idle!" Ding Kui reprimanded his junior sister for Ruan Xingzhu's embarrassment, "You go home for me for the New Year, the officers and soldiers in the army can't go home, it's impossible for me to go back." ”

Lu Ying is a lively person, so he naturally wants to go to Juyang City for the New Year, while Ruan Xingzhu, on the contrary, feels happy to be by Ding Kui's side, and it is better to practice magic when a bunch of people get together.

In the past few days when he came to Nanqiu County, Ruan Xingzhu felt that his spiritual strength had increased significantly, but he couldn't find the reason.

Ding Kui taught her to use two minds, taught her to use magic in a compound way, these are one of the factors, not the main source of growth, as for Ding Kui's life experience, she doesn't understand it very well, but she found that the deeper she loves Ding Kui, the stronger her mental strength.

"You go to Giant Sheep City together, stay for fear that someone will gossip about you. Ding Kui persuaded her.

"Do you care?"

"I don't care, but I'm afraid you can't stand it, I don't want you to be hurt. ”

"Hmph, I'm embarrassed to say! Hey, I don't understand, and I don't want to think so much. ”

"With Li Fei with you, feel what has changed in my home. You should have a complete life, have a family, a husband, and have children, which contains the rules of heaven and earth, and you have to understand what it is. ”

Ding Kui has been perceiving the rules of heaven and earth, and vaguely aware that the rules are everywhere, but he can't tell what they are.

"I'm a qi magician, not a life one. Ruan Xingzhu had resistance in his heart.

"The rules of heaven and earth contain everything, not human beings can understand, there are no words to express it, but you are a person who wants to become a Dharma god, you need to understand everything, and you can't become a god just by specializing in the qi system. ”

"How do I feel that you are more like a magician?" Ruan Xingzhu unconsciously thought of Xie Peng in his heart.

"Different paths are the same, knights and magicians are essentially the same, they both have to understand the rules of heaven and earth, and we just take different paths. Ding Kui wanted to share his magic experience with her, but he couldn't say it in his stomach.

"Isn't it just going to your house for the New Year, it's the same as cultivating, I'll just go. Ruan Xingzhu still decided to obey Ding Kui.

As the year approached, there were fewer and fewer military operations in Nanqiu County, and Yudi even sent envoys to negotiate with Jiang Xi, asking for a truce between the two armies for a period of time.

Jiang Xi instructed Jiang Zhi to negotiate and reach an agreement with his envoys to cease all hostilities from now until January 15, 4879.
