"Guogong, what the hell are Ling Xia and Si Qikong doing? How did they all withdraw from their respective defensive theaters? Aren't they going to garrison it? In the Win Heaven camp, Ye Tianxing looked at the direction in which Ling Xia led his troops to leave, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Ling Xia gave up the fourth war zone and moved inward, and Si Qikong also removed the soldiers and horses of the fifth war zone, it seems that these two people want to join forces." ”

"It's not just a matter of integrating forces into one, Ling Xia actually has a small calculation in his heart, he saw the Stratosphere Tower equipped by our army, and he also knew that the Stratosphere Tower has no troops to solve, no matter how strong the city is, as long as the Stratosphere Tower opens a wave of attacks, it can be destroyed, if it wasn't for the old man's misjudgment last time, the Stratosphere Tower was scattered into fifty places, Ling Xia's main city would have been taken long ago."

Speaking of this, Ying Tian sneered: "Since Ling Xia knows the power of the Tower, then he will definitely think of dodging and facing it, since they don't have weapons in their hands that can compete with the Tower, they can only use the terrain." If I were him, I would find a suitable geographical location as a city station, relying on the dangerous leylines to resist the advance and transportation of the Stratosphere Tower, looking at the so-called ten war zones of the battle guards, nine of them are plains, and only the territory of the tenth war zone is a mountain zone.

Therefore, the old man asserted that Ling Xia must have asked Si Qikong to go to the territory of the Tenth War Zone to set up a formation, and this Ling Xia also had a bit of a doorway, and he was able to come up with the idea of a wolf smoke warning when the communication was cut off, but unfortunately, Ling Xia did not choose the right camp, otherwise the old man really wanted to cultivate him, and ordered all the corps to move forward at full speed, and also notified Xia Yuanxiao to lead his troops to intercept Si Qikong. ”

……

Zhen Guogong is worthy of being the commander who ranks first on the list of famous generals, although Ling Xia slipped away from him unscathed, but the result of Yingtian capturing the fourth war zone without losing a single soldier cannot be ignored, just when Zhen Guogong led his troops to pursue Ling Xia's troops, the rebel headquarters and Xia Yuanwei were announcing a great victory, saying that the rebels had captured the ten major war zones of the imperial court, and they would be able to capture the imperial capital in a few days.

Sure enough, as Zhen Guogong expected, after Ling Xia wrote a letter to tell Si Qikong about the origin and function of the Tower, Si Qikong immediately moved his troops and horses back, originally Yingtian planned to secretly transfer five Towers to support Xia Yuanxiao, but Si Qikong evacuated first, which made Yingtian give up the plan of using the Stratosphere Tower to assist the Fifth War Zone and concentrate on chasing Ling Xia's troops.

After Ling Xia's non-stop march day and night, more than 20 days later, he and Si Qikong successively entered the boundary of the tenth war zone, Ling Xia came to the station of Mohai Province, and Si Qikong was stationed from Xixiu Province according to Ling Xia's suggestion, the two provinces were originally adjacent to each other, except for an official road, surrounded by mountains and forests and steep slopes, after camping, the two armies' defense lines were connected together, with a horizontal length of nearly 1,000 miles.

After Ling Xia and Si Qikong settled down and set up camp, Ying Tian and Xia Yuanxiao also rushed to the battlefield, looking at the undulating mountains and forests of the battle guard position, Ying Tian sneered, in his opinion, Ling Xia and Si Qikong transferred to the battlefield to avoid the threat of the Stratosphere Tower, but the two of them ignored one thing, that is, they had joined their forces together, and once the war started, the Purple Turban Army would highlight the superiority of its troops.

After observing the terrain, Yingtian chose the position in Huaihe Province, and Xia Yuanxiao stationed the corps in Huanyu Province, with the layout of Ling Xia and Si Qikong, Yingtian and Xia Yuanxiao leaned on each other, and the two faced off horizontally against the guards, the headquarters of the two sides were horizontally separated by more than 600 miles, and the front of the headquarters each sent three vanguard corps to station, and the frontline position, the soldiers of the two armies were only separated by more than 30 miles.
