Outside the entire Yumen Pass, wolf smoke was everywhere, and the sound of killing was loud.

But what does this have to do with Middle-earth?

A Jade Gate Pass cuts off the connection between the Middle Earth and the Western Regions. More than half of the mortals are optimistic about this war.

They feel that since they were able to defeat the heavenly army at Eagle Beak Cliff ten years ago, they can defeat the enemy outside the country.

Ten years later, victory can still be achieved in the world.

After all, Yumen Pass is a ten thousand-year-old pass and is known as the number one military fortress in the world.

The Yingzui Cliff back then was only a fortress hastily deployed in more than half a year, and its strength was far inferior to that of Yumen Pass.

Since Yingzui Cliff has become the enemy's tomb, what's the problem with Yumen Pass?

This kind of optimistic thinking only exists if it exists among a group of people. However, more than 50% of mortals have this kind of thinking, and there are even some leading generals and soldiers.

This is quite dangerous.

Over the years, the imperial court has made full preparations for the coming of the second wave of catastrophe. Almost all walks of life are serving this catastrophe.

From combatants, non-combatants, reservists, women's army, child army, local city defense troops, government troops... they have all formed an inherent system.

Food, military supplies, etc. are also fully prepared.

Just a few days after the war, the Chinese imperial court was making orderly arrangements in all aspects. Unlike ten years ago, when it learned that the Gate of Catastrophe had appeared in southern Xinjiang, the imperial court immediately mobilized troops from tens of thousands of miles away to assist the southern battlefield. , issued more than a dozen military conscription orders and food requisition orders in one day.

The stable Middle-earth is the easiest place for people to slack off.

Nowadays, for most of the left-behind people in Central China, the greatest joy in life is reading the imperial newspaper issued by the imperial court.

Then small groups gathered together to discuss the war in the Western Region, the war in Longmen, how many days the girls of the Red Feather Army could hold out, and whether Ye Xiaochuan was a good person or a bad person... They rarely noticed, how many times In the battle on Japan, more than two million human cavalry were killed.

They rarely noticed that tonight in the wasteland south of Longmen, more than two million mortals were using their flesh and blood to resist the terrifying Storm Legion, just to buy the remaining one million cavalry a few hours to assemble. .

War is cruel, especially catastrophic war, which is unprecedentedly cruel.

However, war seems to be too far away from the people of Middle-earth.

They were not overly worried about the approaching catastrophe.

Some people are still worried.

One is old and the other is young.

While chewing on the hard pot helmet, the old man looked up at the night sky. The wrinkles on his fat face were tight, and his eyes were full of worry.

The young woman is also chewing on the pot helmet in the same posture as the old man next to her.

The old man is worried about all the living beings in the world.

The girl is not that big-minded, she is just worried about her man.

As for the fat panda, it is enviable. It is not a human being, and its thoughts are not that complicated. It chews the pot helmets loudly, carefree and heartless.

Yuan Xiaolou took a few bites of the pot helmet and felt that he had no appetite, so he threw the pot helmet to the rice bucket.

Then she said: "Grandpa...grandpa..." She shouted several times before the old storyteller came back to his senses.

He said: "Smelly girl, what are you talking about so late at night? What should we do if wild animals are attracted to this wilderness?"

Yuan Xiaolou said: "How can there be wild animals here? There is not even a rabbit. At most, there are only robbers who block the road."

The old storyteller's eyes widened and he said, "Even if we can't attract wild beasts or attract some robbers, that won't work. Your grandfather and I finally saved some money, but we were robbed. What should we do?"

Yuan Xiaolou glanced at his mouth and thought to himself, with his cultivation level in the realm of immortality, let alone a robber in the mountains, even if he meets a master of cultivation, he may not be his opponent.

Normally, she would have quarreled with her grandfather, but now she was in a bad mood and knew that her grandfather was also in a bad mood, so she had no intention of quarreling with him.

He said: "Grandpa, you have been unhappy these days. Are you also worried about your husband?"

The old storyteller rolled his eyes strangely and said: "Who has time to worry about him? Grandpa, I am a worldly expert who cares about the world. What worries me is the whole world, not just one or two people."

Yuan Xiaolou said in surprise: "Grandpa, isn't this world pretty good now? In the villages and towns we passed along the way, there was no commotion among the people. The atmosphere in the entire Middle-earth is still relatively calm."

The old storyteller sighed and said, "Grandpa is worried just because the atmosphere is calm.

Think about ten years ago, when the catastrophe first came, the whole world was like a taut bowstring, and countless scholars abandoned their pens and joined the army.

But now, the world is too peaceful, as if this catastrophe has nothing to do with them.

Even though the imperial court emphasized the horror of the catastrophe every day, the people in the world did not take the imperial court's words to heart.

So now, those who are guarding the west gate of Middle-earth and are fighting to the death with the enemy are the Red Feather Army from Kunlun Wonderland or a group of women..." Yuan Xiaolou was a little strange and said: "Grandpa, isn't it good for Middle-earth to be peaceful? ? "

The old storyteller said: "Of course it's not good. The catastrophe is mainly aimed at Middle-earth. The people of Middle-earth account for nine out of ten people in the entire world.

If the people of Middle-earth cannot realize how terrible this catastrophe is, the world will be in danger.

In fact, the reason why Tiannu Kingdom and Ye Xiaozi had to fight a battle in Longmen was to awaken the sense of crisis in the hearts of the people on earth and inspire the morale of the soldiers on earth.

Unfortunately, from the current situation, the people in Middle-earth have not changed much in their mentality because of the battle in Longmen.

The top leaders of the human world have also realized this problem, so since yesterday, the content of the court's reports has changed. It is no longer just reporting good news but not bad news, but began to focus on the cruelty of the war in the Western Regions and how many casualties the human world has suffered..." Yuan Xiaolou's heart gradually sank again as her grandfather said.

She used to be quite happy and did not worry too much about the war that Ye Xiaochuan was about to start with the six heavenly departments in Longmen.

It was in these two days that the court began to increase publicity about how tragic the war in the Western Regions was and how huge the losses in the human world were, which made Yuan Xiaolou start to worry about Ye Xiaochuan.

In any case, the court's propaganda is not without effect. At least it makes some mortals who don't pay much attention to the catastrophe pay attention to it again.

However, it is almost impossible to return to the strong fighting spirit of ten years ago when all races in the human world shared the same hatred of the enemy.

The victory at Eagle's Beak Cliff and the comfortable life in the past ten years have made a large part of mortals have a fluke mentality about the catastrophe. It is not possible to rely on the court's propaganda a few times to arouse everyone's attention again.
