A huge sand table map covering over 2,000 square meters was under Zuoqiu Mingyue's foot. On this sand table map, all the provinces in the west of Taixia Country had turned black.
Because the sand table map was too large, it was almost impossible for Zuoqiu Mingyue to see the overall situation of the sand table map intuitively. Therefore, Zuoqiu Mingyue's office was on the second floor of the huge sand table. The sand table map and Zuoqiu Mingyue's foot were unidirectional transparent crystal floors which had been processed by alchemy. Standing on the crystal floor, as long as Zuoqiu Mingyue lowered his head, he would see the great rivers and mountains of Taixia Country and see the entire battle situation.
At this moment, Zuoqiu Mingyue's eyes were fixed on the black area on the sand table map. Zuoqiu Mingyue gazed at the black area in a solemn and profound way as he glanced over each place of the black mountains and rivers inch by inch, including the cities, mountains, plains and rivers. If the black area was a magnet, Zuoqiu Mingyue's eyes were sharp sabers and swords. He couldn't help being attracted by the black area.
Yezhou Province, Wuzhou Province, Zhuzhou Province, Yinzhou Province, Huanzhou Province, Kangzhou Province, Ningzhou Province, Military Province, Shazhou Province, Lizhou Province, Ganzhou Province, Liangzhou Province, Weizhou Province, Kangzhou Province, Yizhou Province, Jingzhou Province, Dingzhou Province, Tongzhou Province, Luozhou Province, Xianzhou Province, Pingzhou Province, Yuzhou Province, Anzhou Province …
These former territories of Taixia Country which hundreds of millions of Hua people lived on for generations had all turned black.
Black was a heavy color, opposite to light. On the sand table map, it represented the Demon Race. This color was also the color of blood solidified by time.
At this moment, the black area on the sand table map was like a bottomless bloody mouth of a monster which was going to devour all the other places on the sand table map.
The two fangs in the upper jaw were the Gan Province and Liang Province to the north of the sand table map, while the other two fangs in the lower jaw were the Yu Province and An Province to the south of the sand table map. The four fangs were biting but could not swallow the Ling Province, Li Province, and Tong Province on the sand table map.
On the sand table, the territories of Lingzhou Province, Lizhou Province and Tongzhou Province were connected with each other like a coarse and hard iron lump, which was rubbing against the fangs of the monster. As a result, the huge mouth could barely swallow this coarse and hard iron lump. It could only be stuck in its mouth, unable to spit it out or swallow it …
As long as the fangs of the demons tore apart and devoured Lingzhou Province, Lizhou Province and Tongzhou Province on the sand table, the hinterland of Taixia Country would be completely exposed to the huge mouth of the black fangs. By then, the demon army would march northward and southward in all directions. As a result, the overall situation facing Taixia Country and humans in the holy war would be ruined.
When Yezhou Province, Wuzhou Province, Zhuzhou Province and Yinzhou Province collapsed, the population of Taixia Country could still move to Huanzhou Province, Kangzhou Province, Ningzhou Province and Military Province. When Huanzhou Province, Kangzhou Province, Ningzhou Province, Military Province, Shazhou Province and Lizhou Province collapsed, the population and materials in Ganzhou Province, Liangzhou Province, Weizhou Province, Kangzhou Province, Yizhou Province and Jingzhou Province could continue to move to Dingzhou Province, Tongzhou Province, Luozhou Province and Xianzhou Province. However, if Lingzhou Province, Lizhou Province and Tongzhou Province collapsed, the rear provinces would have no place to retreat. By then, the bloody and casualties would be 100 times greater than before.
It had been over 40 years since the holy war broke out. Hua people and Taixia Country had no place to retreat anymore.
At this moment, Lingzhou Province, Lizhou Province and Tongzhou Province were the fiercest battlefields in this holy war.

At this moment, Zuoqiu Mingyue was in Tongguan Pass, Tongzhou Province. The military god of Taixia Country was in the fiercest place of the holy war like a pillar.
In the spacious room, Zuoqiu Mingyue was watching the sand table under his foot inch by inch with a slight frown. Behind him, his personal attendant was gazing at him silently with a bit concern.
It had only been over 20 years since the battle at the bank of Weishui River. Zuoqiu Mingyue was still elegant and pure; however, his sideburns had been as white as snow. A wisp of bright red hair on his forehead was more eye-catching. It indicated that Zuoqiu Mingyue had overused his brain and suffered a severe injury of his marrow blood. In the eyes of others, Zuoqiu Mingyue was still Zuoqiu Mingyue; however, in the eyes of Zuoqiu Mingyue's close attendants, the past 20-odd years were like 200 years for this invincible military god in Taixia Country.
During the past 20-odd years, Zuoqiu Mingyue slept less than 1 hour a day on average. In many cases, Zuoqiu Mingyue didn't even sleep for over 10 times. In such a state, Zuoqiu Mingyue still fought sage-level demon knights on the level of Abyss King for over 10 times. Sometimes, he even fought two sage-level demon knights at the same time. Zuoqiu Mingyue persisted until the arrival of the sage-level demon knights of Taixia Country …
The sand table map under the floor was not a dead object; instead, it was a living object. At this moment, numerous soldiers and advisors of Taixia Country were busy in dozens of rooms around the sand table map downstairs. In the communication room, over 1,000 crystal remote-sensing communication devices were constantly vibrating and transmitting or receiving messages from all directions across Taixia Country. Each remote-sensing communication device was being put in charge of at least 3 soldiers, one receiving and sending, one supervising and one translating. After verification, all the messages about the battle situation would be input into a super steam computer. The super steam computer would control the sand table and display everything on the battlefield to Zuoqiu Mingyue in the most intuitive way.
Those people downstairs were busy quietly and intensely. They couldn't see what was happening in the room above; however, they knew that the Military God of Taixia Country could see their achievements. Therefore, nobody dared be slack. It was worth mentioning that those who were seriously guarding those remote-sensing communication devices were basically young and valiant Hua women in military uniforms. In the brain center of the army of Taixia Country, Hua women were contributing to the holy war with their special patience, delicacy and loyalty.
"Military God, it's already 9 pm …" Watching Zuoqiu Mingyue still gazing at the changing sand table downstairs, his personal attendant finally couldn't stand reminding him.
Military God had overused his brain and damaged his marrow and blood. Du Zhongling, the Pill Immortal of Taixia Country especially made a Heavenly Clear Marrow Supplement Pill for Military God and told Zuoqiu Mingyue's personal attendant to take it at 9 pm every day when qi and blood returned to the liver.
Zuoqiu Mingyue didn't turn around; neither did he take the pill; instead, he asked his personal attendant calmly, "Your Highness, what do you think about the outcome of this holy war?"
"Of course, humans will win for sure!" Zuoqiu Mingyue's personal attendant answered loudly without thinking about it.
"Oh, really?" Zuoqiu Mingyue turned around and threw a glance at his personal attendant as he said with a smile, "It's good for you to have such a thought. People of Heavens Fortune Sect always say that people's hearts are the Heavens' Fortune. As long as people's hearts are alive, the Heavens' Fortune would never be destroyed. I've already prepared to be buried in Tongzhou Province. The future of Taixia Country still depends on you young people …"
Zuoqiu Mingyue's personal attendant's heart pounded as he said, "Without the support of commander-in-chief, Taixia Country might be facing a worse situation at this moment. Although commander-in-chief abandoned the western provinces of Taixia Country, it was commander-in-chief's intention. Although commander-in-chief abandoned the western provinces, it was commander-in-chief's intention. Although the western provinces of Taixia Country were abandoned by commander-in-chief, it was commander-in-chief's intention. Although the western provinces of Taixia Country were abandoned by commander-in-chief, it was commander-in-chief's intention. Although the western provinces of Taixia Country were abandoned by commander-in-chief, it was commander-in-chief's intention. Although the western provinces of Taixia Country were abandoned by commander-in-chief, it was commander-in-chief's intention. Although the western provinces of Taixia Country were abandoned by commander-in-chief, it was commander-in-chief's intention.
Zuoqiu Mingyue's personal attendant said with a bit hatred, "Without commander-in-chief's support, Taixia Country might face a worse situation. Although commander-in-chief abandoned all the provinces in the west of Taixia Country, it was commander-in-chief's intention. Although commander-in-chief abandoned all the provinces in the west of Taixia Country, it was commander-in-chief's intention. Although commander-in-chief traded land for time and manpower for retreat step by step. With commander-in-chief's strategy of retreating step by step, demons didn't capture Hua people across those provinces. Look at the Western Continent, if not commander-in-chief's support over these years, Hua men of Taixia Country might have been enslaved and brainwashed by demons …
Zuoqiu Mingyue shook his head with a smile. He didn't explain anything; however, he looked a bit bitter and helpless …
Seeing Zuoqiu Mingyue's reaction, that personal attendant didn't continue that topic; instead, he put it straightforwardly, "Commander-In-Chief, it's time to take the Heavenly Clear Marrow Fix Pill that Pill Immortal has prepared for you …"
Soon after the personal attendant finished his words, before Zuoqiu Mingyue opened his mouth, the door of their room had been pushed open from outside. The young secretary of Sima Clan on the side of the commander-in-chief of Taixia Country almost rushed in in the most straightforward and rude manner. Without even reporting to the commander-in-chief, he passed a secret slip for transmitting remote-sensing communication information to Zuoqiu Mingyue as he shouted, "Commander-In-Chief, urgent report from Youzhou Province, Taixia Country …"
After taking the secret slip, Zuoqiu Mingyue took a glance at its contents. Closely after that, he widely opened his eyes while an indescribable, powerful qi field appeared on Zuoqiu Mingyue's body.
Zuoqiu Mingyue closed his eyes. Only after 2 seconds, he had reopened his eyes with gleaming eyes as he issued an order decisively, "Order all the generals and air cavalries of the top four armies and the garrisons of the Lion Fortress and Tongguan Pass to prepare for an all-out attack in the shortest period. Wait for my order …"
'All-out attack?'
Zuoqiu Mingyue's personal attendant became stunned. After looking at Zuoqiu Mingyue, he looked at the sand table map below. On the sand table map, demons were still attacking while all the armies of Taixia Country were still defending. Demons had occupied the initiative and advantage on the battlefield. 'What news could Military God send from Youzhou Province? How could Military God order all the garrisons and knights of Taixia Country to prepare for an all-out attack?'
Zuoqiu Mingyue raised his head as his gloomy eye light seemed to penetrate through the roof of the room and see the outside of the battle fortress. At the same time, a young and fresh face appeared in Zuoqiu Mingyue's mind …
Zuoqiu Mingyue knew that if that person really came back, Taixia Country would definitely be thinking about what he was going to do next …
Old Man Taiyi and Old Man Shenkong died in Youzhou Province. As a result, Taixia Country lost two sage-level knights. As the top three sects were involved, there must be a great turmoil and internal instability. That person would never create such a chance for demons to take advantage of Taixia Country at this moment. The only way to prevent demons from taking advantage of Taixia Country at this moment was to make the demon army suffer a greater loss and greater turmoil so that the demon army could barely take care of itself and the others …
As the Military God of Taixia Country, of course, he should seize all the opportunities to strive for a greater victory and a more favorable situation. Therefore, Zuoqiu Mingyue made an important decision in the blink of an eye — — to have all the armies of demons prepare for an all-out attack!
At this moment, the only thing that Zuoqiu Mingyue was not sure about was how much damage could that person who suddenly came back cause to demons. There were already 4 sage-level knights and over 100,000 demon knights in the west of Taixia Country …
