It took nearly half a month to delay their departure. Therefore, Nangong Aotian and the others were rushing along the way and rarely rested along the way. Thirteen days passed in this way. They finally arrived at Phoenix City. When they arrived at Phoenix City, it was already
It's ten o'clock at night.
After asking about the location of the Dongfang Family, the Phoenix Family in Phoenix City, Liu Dingguo took the lead in walking in the direction of the Dongfang Family. He soon saw the mansion of the Dongfang Family.
It is truly a big family. The mansion of the Dongfang Family looks grand and elegant. There are two large stone lions at the door, and on top of the door is a huge phoenix bathing in flames with its head raised to the sky. It looks very majestic. On the plaque on the door
Engraved with four simple characters "Phoenix Family"
Liu Dingguo didn't stop, walked up and knocked on the door. Soon someone came to open the door.
"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" The servant who opened the door seemed very polite.
"We are coming from the imperial capital. We want to see your master Dongfang Xiaotian. Please inform us." Liu Dingguo said politely.
"Do you want to see our master?" The servant looked at Liu Dingguo and the people behind him, especially Nangong Aotian, who had two high-level magical beasts on his shoulders. The servant didn't know what these people were here for.
He asked in confusion, "What do you want?"
"Oh. Just give this to your master." Liu Dingguo said, taking out a jade pendant and handing it to the man.
"Then wait a minute." The servant glanced at the jade pendant in his hand and felt that it was still valuable, so he closed the door and left with hesitation.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the door opened again.
The person who walked out was a man in his fifties, but he looked like a dragon and a tiger, with a majestic aura. Nangong Aotian detected that this person's strength should be at the intermediate level of martial arts. He thought
I thought to myself, "Could this person be Dongfang Xiaotian?"
The strong man who came out was followed by four or five strong men in armor. They all looked very powerful and looked like veterans who had been on the battlefield for a long time.
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince has arrived. Please excuse me for not being able to welcome him from afar." The mighty and strong man who came out walked up to Liu Dingguo and said.
Liu Dingguo knew him. He had seen him in the palace before. Now he dared not accept his great gift. He quickly extended his hand to return the gift and said, "General Dongfang doesn't need to be polite."
"This little brother also raised two monsters!!" At this time, Dongfang Xiaotian was a little surprised to see the two little monsters on Nangong Aotian's shoulders.
"I got it by accident when I was a child, and I have been raising it till now." Nangong Aotian replied with a smile.
"We are here to learn from you this time, and you will have to teach us more in the future," Liu Dingguo continued at this time.
"Haha, don't you dare." Dongfang Xiaotian said with a smile. Then he let Nangong Aotian and his party enter the gate of Dongfang Family.
The Dongfang Family's mansion also seemed extremely spacious. The people walking around inside looked very good, and what was rare was that everyone looked well-trained. Nangong Aotian looked at it and secretly admired it. He is indeed the number one
The Legion's mansion is indeed a truly ancient family. Even the quality of its people is extraordinary.
Soon, Nangong Aotian and his party arrived at the reception hall of the Dongfang Family. Someone had already prepared a dinner party. Although it was a bit late, Liu Dingguo and the others had just arrived at this time, so they must not have eaten. At this time, they must set up a banquet.
Banquet.
Not long after, a sumptuous dinner was served.
Dongfang Xiaotian was very generous and kept toasting to Liu Dingguo and the others. An hour or so passed by. At this time, Dongfang Xiaotian looked at Liu Dingguo and said, "Why did your highness arrive ten days late? According to what His Majesty the Emperor gave me,
Notice. You should have arrived ten days ago. After all, the empire’s 100,000-strong army arrived five days ago.”
It could be heard that there seemed to be a hint of displeasure in Dongfang Xiaotian's tone.
The old general who has been on the battlefield for many years attaches great importance to time. He thinks that His Royal Highness the Third Prince in front of him must be afraid of the hard work, so he rushes unhurriedly and delays these days. Therefore, he is actually a little unhappy in his heart.
It's just that when they first met Liu Dingguo, they didn't have the nerve to express their displeasure.
"We encountered some things before departure, so we were delayed for half a month. I hope General Dongfang will forgive me." Liu Dingguo stood up and explained after hearing Dongfang Xiaotian's words.
Seeing that His Highness the Third Prince in front of him was not at all displeased with his accusation, and at the same time, he did not have any airs about the prince. The explanation was also very reasonable. Dongfang Xiaotian's dissatisfaction was reduced a lot. "No wonder, but in the army and
It’s different in school. The military takes time very seriously. It’s hard to imagine the consequences of delaying a military plane because of missed time." Dongfang Xiaotian said seriously.
"Yes, we have indeed been delayed for a long time this time. We hope General Dongfang will forgive us," Liu Dingguo said.
"Are they all your classmates?" At this time, Dongfang Xiaocai pointed at Nangong Aotian and the others and said, "They seem to be quite strong, and they are not very old."
"They are all my classmates." Liu Dingguo sat down and said, "We came together this time just to have some experience." Then he introduced Nangong Aotian and the others to Dongfang Xiaotian one by one.
When Dongfang Xiaotian heard that Nangong Aotian was only seventeen years old at this time and Sun Yifeng and Li Changfeng were only nineteen years old, he was really shocked. He could see that the strength of the three young people in front of him had already reached the peak of King Wu.
Only Sima Changfeng's strength is slightly inferior. Baili Changfeng and Xiao Jianqiu's strength is also at the peak of King Wu. At this time, the six young people behaved neither humble nor arrogant, without a trace of cowardice. Compared with Liu Dingguo, they were not even
Not inferior.
"These young people are all rare talents. Apart from their martial arts talents, I don't know what they are like in other aspects." Dongfang Xiaotian thought silently in his heart.
After dinner, Liu Dingguo and the others were arranged to rest.
The next morning, they got up very early because today was the day Dongfang Xiaotian arranged for them to go to the border battlefield. Of course they came here not to pamper themselves, but to fight on the battlefield. At this time, there were not many people in the Phoenix family.
Time to recuperate. Dongfang Xiaotian was originally on the battlefield. But he happened to come back due to something in the past few days. Otherwise, Nangong Aotian and the others would not have met this empire's famous legion commander so quickly.
The empire's Huwei Corps had already marched to the frontline battlefield at this time. They fought with the invading enemies at several border cities 200 kilometers outside Phoenix City. Liu Dingguo was nominally the deputy commander of this 100,000-strong army. And the 100,000-strong army's
The general is a general sent by His Majesty the Emperor, named Hu Yanzhuo.
After breakfast, Nangong Aotian was called to a hall by Dongfang Xiaotian. There was a large sandbox map directly in front of the hall. Nangong Aotian was very familiar with this kind of sandbox work. For him, seeing this not only made him feel uncomfortable
Even though it is strange, it seems to have a very friendly feeling.
At this time, Dongfang Xiaotian began to introduce the current situation to Nangong Aotian and others.
After listening to Dongfang Xiaotian's narration, Nangong Aotian knew that the enemy they faced this time was not so easy to deal with.
There are three border cities 200 kilometers in front of Phoenix City. The distance between the three cities is only more than 50 kilometers. And the three cities are in a straight line. There is another huge city 60 kilometers behind the three cities.
.As the backup for these three cities.
Originally, there were five cities in front of these three cities, which were the borders of the Chinese Empire. But now those five cities have all fallen one after another. There are tall mountains on both sides of these three cities. If you want to attack,
In the Chinese Empire, these three cities must be broken. At this time, the allied forces of the principalities have already attacked the last barrier of the Chinese Empire, which is in front of those three cities. The situation is very tense.
Originally, the Phoenix Family's military strength was very strong, but the defense line in the south was not only limited to this area, but also a place bordering the Lane Empire, where the Phoenix Legion stationed its main force.
It is obvious that the offensive of the principality coalition forces is very strong this time, and they want to completely break through the defense line guarded by the Phoenix family.
However, with the constraints of the Lion Empire, the Phoenix family did not dare to send troops here to strengthen the defense, so they urgently asked the empire for help.
Now the empire's 100,000 powerful troops have been deployed to the forward positions. For a while, both sides entered a state of anxiety.
"You came here this time to study, so I will arrange for you to join the frontline army for training. I wonder what your opinions are?" Dongfang Xiaotian said after explaining the current situation and looking at the six teenagers in front of him.
Seeing that Nangong Aotian and the others were silent, Liu Dingguo said to Dongfang Xiaotian, "We will just listen to your arrangement."
"In this case, let me tell you what I think." Dongfang Xiaotian thought for a moment and said, "His Third Highness is in Luoyin City behind and controlling the overall situation with me. The city on the right is called Weisnuoer City, which is connected to the mountains.
, the terrain there is very good and the defense is relatively easy. We have a total of 50,000 troops there. If you have no objection, Nangong Aotian and your two brothers can go there to help. The city on the left, Kabuli, has a slightly better terrain.
A little worse, we have deployed a hundred thousand troops there. I think the three of you, Xiao Jianqiu, Baili Changfeng and Sima Changfeng, will go there to help. The city in the middle is very important. Currently we have ten troops stationed there.
Twenty thousand troops. It’s not suitable for you right now. What do you think?”
He wants to separate a few people. If everyone gets together, there will be too many people and mixed opinions. Not only will it be impossible to learn from each other, but it will be harmful. Wait until you fully understand everyone's abilities before making readjustments.
is the best choice. What Liu Dingguo needs to learn is how to control the overall situation. As for fighting on the battlefield, he should wait until it is not very dangerous to learn.
In the future, when there is a suitable opportunity and there is no great danger, it will be time for Liu Dingguo to go to the front line to command. After all, the status is different. What Liu Dingguo needs to learn is the concept of coordinating the overall situation. Besides, his life is the most important among these people.
Precious, at least that's what Dongfang Xiaotian thinks.
The three of them had no objections at all and agreed with Dongfang Xiaotian's arrangement.
Seeing that none of the three people had any objections, Dongfang Xiaotian felt quite satisfied.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Nangong Aotian and his party arrived at Luoyin City. At this time, there were troops guarding all over the city. There were also troops passing by on the streets from time to time. There was a tense atmosphere. Although Luoyin City still looked very...
It's bustling and lively, but everyone can see the panic in their hearts from the faces of passers-by.
When they arrived at the commander's account in Luoyin City, Dongfang Xiaotian briefly explained a few words to Nangong Aotian and the others, and then gave each of the three a letter. He asked a few soldiers to take them to their assigned places.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening when Nangong Aotian and Sun Yifeng arrived at Visnuor. Of course, they were not going very fast. After all, there were soldiers leading the way, so they could not leave them behind. Of course, they did not leave them behind at this time.
