Three o'clock is the darkest hour before dawn.

The Yellow Turban camp outside the city was silent. The soldiers of the three armies have received the news that the time for the general attack will be the end of today, and there is no need to prepare as early as yesterday. The Yellow Turban Leaders let go in advance to let the troops who were preparing to participate in the siege battle have a good rest, except for those who were responsible for the siege equipment, most of the other troops were still in a sweet sleep.

On the eastern city wall of Luoyang, a large bamboo basket hung down, and a thin official sat in the basket.

When they reached the ground, the officials dusted off their bodies and went straight to the camp of the Yellow Turban East Road Army. After the Yellow Turban Army on duty issued a warning, the official immediately stopped, and Shi Shiran said: "Luoyang envoy, entrusted by Wang Yue Daxia, came to see Zhang Yan's leader, and there is an urgent military affairs to inform. ”

Five minutes later, the official saw Zhang Yan, who was woken up from his sleep, with a rather unkind face, "At this time, Wang Yue called someone to see me, what is the matter?" Could it be that anyone ignored the overall situation and quietly attacked the city? Thinking of this, Zhang Yan couldn't help but be a little worried.

"What?"

"Now that the defenders of Luoyang have begun to attack your army's troops in the north of Luoyang, Wang Yue Daxia called me to tell you. Yesterday's Covenant. It just said that your army could not attack Luoyang before the end of the day, and did not say that we were not allowed to attack out of the city, so I hope that the leader of Zhang Yan can restrain his subordinates to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings between the two armies. ”

Zhang Yan was coerced by Wang Yue yesterday and had to make a promise that "the city will not be attacked before the end of the day", and he did not expect that the Luoyang army would take the initiative to attack. In fact, even if he thought about it at the time, Zhang Yan would not take it to heart, the Luoyang army had been beaten to a thousand pieces, and it really couldn't be seen that they still had the ability to attack, and it was indeed impossible to accuse the Luoyang army of treachery.

At this moment, there was a commotion in the north of Luoyang City, and a firelight appeared, which seemed to confirm the words of the messenger, and it was obvious that the Yellow Turban North Route Army had been attacked. The timing of the appearance of the Luoyang envoy was no coincidence, the defenders were clearly distinguished, and even the time when the officials saw Zhang Yan was very clear!

Zhang Yan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "I know, please also ask the messenger to go back and bring a message to Wang Yue Daxia." Yesterday's covenant is only that our army must not attack the city before the end of the day, not before the end of the city must not do anything to the defenders of Luoyang outside the city, since your army does not go out of the city to attack, our army will never sit still! ”

The messenger smiled faintly, "That's nature. If Zhang Yan's leader has nothing else to do, the villain will go back first. ”

"Please."

The envoy calmly saluted Zhang Yan and walked away, before coming to the camp of the Yellow Turban East Route Army, the official understood that he was not completely risk-free, and that he was likely to be killed on the spot by the angry Yellow Turban Army, and now he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Most of the other leaders and generals were also awakened by the shouts of killing in the north of the city, and they came to the big tent to see Zhang Yan. As soon as the officials of Luoyang City left, the leaders immediately began to talk nonsense. Someone even said: "Luoyang's troops are thin, and now that they are attacking the north of the city again, the troops in the city will inevitably be empty, can we take this opportunity to attack the city and kill them by surprise?" ”

Zhang Yan's face was uncertain, and finally said gloomily: "When they go out of the city to attack, how can they not make corresponding arrangements?" The little strength in Luoyang could not pose much of a threat to our army in the field, and the purpose was nothing more than to provoke our officers and men, or to figure out that Guò would exhaust our army by constantly sneaking attacks. Let's let them go, and order the battalions to be strictly guarded and stick to the camp, and when the day dawns, they don't dare to come out at all! ”

Mrs. Guo also said: "Yes, I will settle accounts with them at the end of the day, and enter Luoyang, and the chickens and dogs will not be left!" Now let's send some troops to meet the north of the city. ”

Zhang Yan nodded, and a few minutes later, a force of more than 5ooo people left the village and looked at the north gate.

In the dark corner of the East City Tower in Luoyang, Xu Rong quietly observed the movements of the Yellow Turban East Route Army, and saw that the East Route Army did not take this opportunity to attack the city, Xu Rong breathed a long sigh of relief. This time the Luoyang army's attack was quite a bit of a gamble, gathering all the troops, Luoyang at this time is tantamount to an empty city, if the Yellow Turban Army can't hold back and wave the division to attack, Luoyang is almost difficult to hold.

Xu Rong said to an official beside him: "The Yellow Turban Army will not attack immediately, let these people go down to the city, what should they do." In addition, notify the northern city and let them give a signal to let the attacking troops fight the battle, and after eight minutes, regardless of the outcome of the battle, all the attacking troops must return to the city! ”

The city was not empty. On the contrary, almost all the civilians of the city were distributed on the east, west and south walls, and even the women were no exception. If the Yellow Turbans took the opportunity to start a siege battle against Luoyang, the Yellow Turbans would not be able to recognize whether these people were civilians or soldiers in the dark, and these civilians would be able to buy time for the attacking troops to return to the city.

The civilians were silent and dungeons, while the Iron Horse began to contact the players of Dragon Guardian Villa in the Northern City. Since Lu Zhi was seriously injured, Jin Ge Iron Horse's "service object" has become Xu Rong, and almost all the information transmission has to rely on the adventure players of Dragon Guardian Villa.

The attack of the defenders of Luoyang on the north of the city did not last too long, especially when the attacking troops saw the signal on the head of the city, and accelerated the frequency of attacks.

Wang Yue, Li Qi, and Liu Xing attacked with all the martial artists, while Zilong led all the troops of nearly 2ooo people to fight on foot, and all the troops in Luoyang City were here. The martial artists continued to play their best game of arson and assassination, while Zhao Yun took advantage of the chaos of the Yellow Turban Army to rush up with his troops to massacre, and the Yellow Turban North Route Army suffered a painful defeat again!

When the reinforcements of the Yellow Turban East Route Army arrived, they could only watch the Luoyang Army return to the city, and the North Route Army camp was already in disarray. Although Fengxiang's attack force was small, it was led by three martial arts masters, and there were fierce generals like Zhao Yun who took the lead, and the Yellow Turban Army suffered heavy casualties, and the attack force only lost more than 200 soldiers.

Among the three route army, the Yellow Turban North Route Army is the weakest link, and it was attacked by the Flying Wing Battalion once yesterday, plus the loss of yesterday's siege battle, the strength of the North Route Army is only more than 12,000 people, and it has long lost its due sharpness.

In today's battle, the Northern Route Army lost 4ooo troops again, and many small leaders were killed. The most tragic thing is that Wang Yue personally killed Yang Feng, the commander of the Northern Route Army!

The only thing that comforted the Yellow Turban Army was that the attack of the Luoyang defenders seemed to be only concerned with killing people, and they did not attack those siege equipment, which also made the Northern Route Army still capable of wielding a role in the siege war.

There were only more than 8,000 people left in the Northern Route Army, and the loss rate in the battle of Luoyang had reached sixty percent, and the morale had dropped! Some of the frightened Yellow Turban Army were even seriously considering whether to retreat, lamenting: "Damn Luoyang Army, why only sneak attack us!" ”

In this case. Zhang Yan, the commander of the Eastern Route Army, could no longer sit still, if he did not find a way to stabilize the morale of the Northern Route Army and vigorously besiege Luoyang, he would face the situation of losing the army all the way before he completed the whole work. After thinking about it again and again, he had to make a decision to divide the troops, and after getting Guo Tai's consent, the 20,000 troops of the Baibo Army were transferred to the north of the city, and Guo Tai served as the commander of the North Route Army.

Since Zhang Yan was coerced by Wang Yue yesterday evening, Guo Tai made a small move, the relationship between the two leaders of the Black Mountain Army and the White Polish Army has deteriorated even more, although the skin has not been completely torn, but the relationship between the two can be called respectful like "ice".

Because the Montenegrin army suffered losses in the second wave of siege battles, and the White Polish army never entered the battle, the Montenegrin army's strength advantage over the White Polish army was weakened, and Zhang Yan's confidence was no longer so strong. Under such circumstances, it was a wiser decision to separate the Bai Bo army, which was already difficult to control.

At the end of the day, the White Wave Army completed the change of defense.

As the Baibo Army moved to the north of Luoyang City, the strength of the eastern, southern, and northern armies of Luoyang became more balanced, and for the defenders, the difficulty of defense will become greater!

Even the West Gate of Luoyang, where the Yellow Turban Army had the smallest number of troops, had prepared a large number of siege equipment, and it was conceivable that when the end came, the defenders of Luoyang would face an unprecedented and all-round attack.

At the moment, a force of 2oo people appeared outside the south gate of Luoyang City, and came directly to the city wall 15o steps away from the city wall with a white flag, and the troops sent by Ji Ling to meet Lu Zhi outside Luoyang City arrived.

For a military general shouted at the city: "Nanyang envoy Qin Yi came to Luoyang on the order of my lord, please pass it on to the brothers in the city!" ”

There was a quick reaction from the city, and two minutes later, Liu Xing appeared on the city and shouted below: "Did Nanyang Taishou send you two hundred people to support Luoyang?" ”

The military general named Qin Yi couldn't help but blush. He said, "It's a big deal, please allow us to elaborate on it when we enter the city." None of us were armed, no malice. ”

Liu Xing sneered, "Let you come in and talk slowly, when I'm a fool?" You claim to be Yuan Shu's people, but you think that Yuan Shu was born in a famous family and has been favored by the imperial court for generations, how can you collude with the Yellow Turban Rebellion! Don't tell me that you two hundred people broke in, and if you don't get out, let you taste the taste of powerful arrows! ”

The following does not count as words:

I've read some recent posts and I'm very depressed and complaining, so I don't want to read it.

In recent posts, there have been many criticisms and questions, mainly focusing on "the Battle of Luoyang dragged on for too long" and "whether some descriptions are not concise enough, and there is a suspicion of cheating the number of words - it does not explicitly say that the number of words is cheating, but it has that meaning".

To explain: in the cat's plan, the Battle of Luoyang was not a simple battle. Instead, it has always been written as a "big battle", and the book contains many plots, as well as the intricate relationships between multiple forces and characters, which is the main reason why the Battle of Luoyang has not been completed for a long time. There is another reason, that is, the number of updates of cats has declined recently, most of the chapters are 3,000 words, and there are rarely large chapters of 1,000 words in a chapter, or more than 10,000 words updated in a day. In addition to the monthly pass plus update, only one chapter is updated every day, which is also one of the reasons why everyone feels that "the battle drags on for too long".

I want to talk about my own thoughts, this book is the first time the cat has written, and it has been more than half a year, and I really understand what it is difficult to reconcile.

I wrote a lot about the war, and my book friends had opinions, and I left a message again saying "It's been another week, why are you still fighting", and my last detailed reply to your post seems to have been in vain; Construction has been written a lot, and there is also something to say.

The plot is explained in detail, and some people think that it is cheating on the number of words; The details are not detailed enough or a little late, and some people think that it is too rough and irresponsible.

The characters and events portray Mo Duo, and some people think it is verbose, and leave a message asking "Are you worthy of those book friends who voted for the change (note: the person who said this is not a VIP book friend)?" "**paragraph only needs ** word to be completed", just write a sample essay for the cat to learn and observe; Okay, let's pass it off, and some book friends think that "the writing is as plain as a child's play", "the characters are not full and vivid enough", and "the article should not just be piled up with a bunch of plots".

The same is true for suspense, it seems normal to leave a little suspense at the end of some chapters, but some book friends accused this move of "deliberately playing suspense and playing stiff"; Similarly, on the issue of setting up suspense, some book friends reminded them with practical examples, thinking that cats have not done enough in this regard......

And so on and so forth.

What can I say?

What should I do?

How can I not see those depressing words in my article?

The text is not concise enough? Please make it clear first that this is a web novel and not an essay! In particular, I want to say "I'm guilty" to those who leave a message saying "**content only**words", cats can't write the concise style you want, and can't do word-by-word repeated scrutiny (most of my scrutiny is reflected in the plot), I'm sorry for your expectations! No way, the writing is limited, and the style is not recent, the cat did not specifically calculate how many words have been written in this book, but presumably 15o million must have it, and the difference between two million words will not be too much. The country is easy to change, and its nature is difficult to change. It's always been like this, no one says anything in the public chapter, and some people accuse it of "cheating the number of words" on the shelves, and a lot of people who say this are still reading white books! The cat wants to ask, are you embarrassed when you say those things?

The cat has also seen the stolen post, and there are many book friends in the group who have read the stolen post, and the cat doesn't think there is anything wrong with it. But the one who read the white book jumped out to accuse me of "cheating the number of words" and asked me "Is it worthy of the book friend's reminder ticket", which is really TMD's irony!

The war plot dragged on too long? I'm sorry, but I can't end a big battle with a lot of relationships and intricacies in a short space, and the cat knows what he's writing about. Again, this is not an easy battle, but a big one.

There are many authoritative critics, and everyone has the right to express their opinions, but when everyone criticizes and accuses, they dare to pat their chests and say, "What Lao Tzu says is the truth", "Do what I say, no one will have an opinion"?

In the new year, there are more than ten days before the Spring Festival, and everyone wants to be happy and prepare for the festival, and it is very uncomfortable to see those cats. By the way, Mao has seven years of experience as a middle and senior manager in a foreign company, and is a very competitive retail industry, and thinks that his ability to resist pressure is not bad, but now it seems that this is not the case, or that the author is under more pressure than foreign company executives.

Not everyone understands what "minimum respect" is, anyway, Lao Tzu is the biggest and I am the most right, and what Lao Tzu doesn't like is wrong, and he should be scolded!

I would like to ask, "Is that really the case?" "Be kind, don't be too self-righteous, even in an online world where no one knows who.

The cat is a sentimental person, and I can understand the criticism and accusations of most book friends, if it weren't for liking the book, I wouldn't spend time and energy to leave a message to correct it, even if the words were used to be intense, as long as there was no humiliation or the bottom limit, the cat would seriously think and reply, and thus became friends with many book friends who criticized the cat.

The mind is very chaotic, the anger is very big, there is so much nonsense, these three thousand words were stacked as early as half past seven in the evening, and it has taken two hours to write the nonsense after writing, and I don't know if I have expressed the meaning I want to express clearly.

I hope that some book friends who have left criticism posts will not be misunderstood, including those who have recently made the plot progress, but I just hope that everyone can be more tolerant and be able to understand the author's difficulty. Cats are not people who resist criticism and insist on going their own way, and whether the point of criticism of the book poster friend is good or not, the cat is unlikely to make a mistake in judging itself.

Finally, I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year.
