Late autumn. Although Luoyang City is much colder than before, it is still full of people.

On the long street, only two carriages were left to pass side by side, and the rest of the places were stationed with military tents, and the military tents were Liang's own, some were Han, some were reckless, and there were those who left the Northern Qin Huanyue...... And so on and so on all kinds of military tents can be seen everywhere in Luoyang City, but even with such a large army stationed in the city, Luoyang City is still stable, but anyone can feel the calm before the storm.

The situation in Luoyang City is the same, in the seemingly calm atmosphere, there is endless pressure and irritability, the empire has been fully launched, preparing for the war that may come soon, the officials and scribes in the ministry are running even if they pass the documents, the transfer of grain and grass has entered the most important stage, and the military is even more vigilant, and countless military orders have been sent from this city to the small cities in the south, so that they are preparing for war.

To the north of the avenue, after a street where the restaurant was originally located, there is a large wood, behind the forest is a withered yellow meadow, and the meadow is scattered with dozens of pavilions with clear and black eaves, here is the military headquarters.

The pavilion in the middle is the head of the military department, several deacons and officers, standing solemnly under the stone steps outside the building, a huge stove in the pavilion is burning, making a creaking sound, the sound comes from behind, and the suffocating tension can't help but be suffocating.

"The focus of the battle, it seems that there are two places at this time, the first is Luoyang, and the second place is naturally the reckless Yeguang City, if the ghost people give up attacking Luoyang and attack Yeguang City instead, we are afraid that we will be passive, after all, the guards of Yeguang City are too much worse than Luoyang. ”

The person who spoke was Yue Hao, and as the first general supported by the Great Han, his advice was naturally very important.

The pavilion was quiet, and several generals and more than a dozen staff officers remained silent, not agreeing with this sentence or raising objections.

Everyone knows that if the ghost people attack Luoyang, then the human alliance still has the confidence to hold it, but if they turn around and attack Yeguang City, then the reinforcement speed of the human alliance will not be as fast as the strong ghost people, then Da Mang may have the possibility of being captured, because after Yeguang City is the plain of a horse and a flat river.

The most critical problem is that the humans can't be sure that the ghost people are going to attack there now, so they are a little anxious for a while.

"I thought that the decisive battle was still in Luoyang. ”

A general put forward his opinion, Luoyang is the entrance to the Central Plains, and taking Luoyang is equivalent to standing at the gate of the Central Plains, and taking Yeye Guangcheng is not so significant for the ghost people.

"If I were the patriarch of the Oni Clan, I would rather bypass Yeguang City and attack Damang Kyoto than waste time going to this meaningless city. ”

General Peng Zhanyi's expression looked a little tired, and he said: "The problem is that it is possible on the third front, but we are powerless to defend. The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light, so it's difficult. At present, we can only do our best to focus on Luoyang City, so that the cavalry is ready to reinforce Da Mang at any time. ”

As the commander-in-chief of the fight against the ghost clan, Peng Zhanyi was very anxious in his heart, and what he was anxious about was not the safety of Luoyang City, but the comfort of this world. The Ghost Clansmen have been lurking in Hawthorne City for so long, where is the next target?

When the people in the pavilion dispersed, he began to stand in front of the map, and slowly looked at the world map in front of him, a map that he could almost memorize, but it seemed a little strange in his eyes at the moment. He prides himself on being the best defensive general in the world, so this time he is responsible for defending the whole world, and there is no room for error.

"The move of attacking Luoyang did not adjust the defense line in Da Liang, which proved that the ghost people were not in a hurry to occupy Da Liang, so the sneak attack on the capital of Da Mang, announced to the world the provocation of Da Mang, and attracted everyone's attention to Da Mang, but it also aroused Da Mang's own vigilance and strengthened the defense, if the ghost people really want to take the opportunity to take Da Mang, then there is no need to make another move, and add to the snake. Why is that?"

A long time ago, Peng Zhanyi didn't think that the ghost people had any schemes and tactics, but it wasn't until the last battle of Hawthorne that he resolutely denied his idea.

At the southeast junction of Damang and Daliang is a barren desert, this desert area is very large, except for the caravan with sufficient reserves can ride camels across here, horses and people can hardly cross on foot, of course the army can't pass through, so everyone subconsciously skipped here, but when Peng Zhanyi, who was focused here, was suddenly stunned.

Humans can't pass through, but that doesn't mean that ghost people can't pass through either.

Because behind this desert is Anli, which can be regarded as the smallest country in the world, at this time, when mankind is in danger, it also sent 10,000 reinforcements to Luoyang, and at this moment the country must have been empty, and did not take precautions. It's too easy for the Oni people to take this place. The more Peng Zhan thought about it, the more frightened he became, if the ghost clan took Anli, it would be equivalent to gaining a foothold in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Attacking and retreating, then it is like inserting a thorn in the heart of a human being.

That's how it should be. Peng Zhanyi was actively thinking about countermeasures in his heart, but there was no solution.

"Quick, call General Wang Lang who has left An, I have something important to discuss with him. ”

"Report the ......" and at this moment, suddenly a scout rushed into the attic, this scout was dressed in blue, and his level was not low among the scouts, and the dark color rushed into the attic in a panic, and his face was pale and knelt on the ground. "Will ...... General, a ghost ...... The Oni may be going into the desert. ”

"Waste, why are you only reporting now?" Peng Zhan's eyes widened when he heard this, and he was furious, he never expected that the ghost clansmen's movements would be so fast, and he was even more angry that the scouts who had been released only now noticed it.

"My brothers only change shifts once a day, and the brother who was on duty last night was killed, and I found out in the morning that the ghost people did not go out of the nest, but the elite troops. This is what I heard from the conversation between the ghost people lurking not far away, if all this is true, I am afraid that at the speed of the ghost people's activities, I am afraid that they will enter the great desert at this moment. The blue-clothed scout saw that the general was furious, and at this moment he was already trembling and fell to his knees.

"Quick, send the fastest cavalry of Daliang to inform Damang and Northern Qin and Dahan, it will be too late. Peng Zhanyi slumped into his chair behind the map and let out a long sigh. The ghost people are no longer the ghost people of the past, and the human race is still the human race of the past, and the war is really about to start. As for Anli, everything depends on the will of God.

At the end of autumn, Anli sat in the city, the cold was pressing, there were chariots from outside the city gate, walking slowly in the streets, Anli Wang sat in the chariot, closed his eyes, and looked indifferent.

There are sparks shining everywhere in the city, illuminating the dark night dome, which is very beautiful to look at. Today is the traditional Double Ninth Festival of Anli, and the wanderers who leave home rush home to reunite with their families on this festival, which is the biggest festival in Anli except for the Spring Festival, so the city is particularly boiling.

As the de facto ruler of An Liguo, in order to show his mood of being happy with the people, he walked around the city according to the custom.

Yan Xiuwen couldn't see, he couldn't see those sparks, but he could feel the real heat, and he could hear the cheers that kept ringing. As the first guard of King Anli. He held King Anli's chariot and followed King Anli slowly through the crowd towards the palace.

The city at night is a dark sea, and thousands of dazzling flames float on the sea, like flowers that are quietly blooming, which is particularly beautiful.

The people fell to their knees, raised their hands above their heads, and shouted Long live the king and thanked him for his kindness. Although King An Li was already exhausted, he still put on a very enjoyable appearance, feeling the love of the people, and a few smiles appeared on his face.
