Mage Veigar

Chapter 255: Flooding the Army
This is God helping him!
After giving the order, Kraft was so excited that he could not be more excited.

The trouble caused by his inability to cross the river was completely resolved. He did not expect that the flow of such a big river would be so low. It seemed that even God was on his side. Therefore, there was no reason for him to lose this battle.

As for the reason for the drop in water level?
Although Kafin had his doubts in his heart, he had just received intelligence that the main force of Vega, which had occupied the rear, was making a comeback and would arrive here in about 20 minutes. If he did not cross the river at this time, he would face the danger of being attacked from both sides.

So he had no idea why.

There is only one way left for him now. Either cross the river to defeat Vega's frontal forces and exchange cities, or stay where he is and wait for death. Even a fool knows which choice to make. There is still a glimmer of hope if he moves forward, but if he does not move, he will be dead.

"Maybe it's just seasonal."

Kaf, who was leading the three armies forward, murmured to himself, attributing the drop in water level to his good luck. He happened to have encountered a clear sky for half a month, so the water level of the river dropped and the flow decreased. He did not send scouts to the upper reaches to investigate the specific situation.

After all, this is a critical moment, and by the time the investigation is completed, the body may be cold.

at the same time.

When Vega saw Kafuin leading three brigades preparing to cross the river on foot, he finally smiled.

Just as Kafyn induced Vega to build a bridge and then won the battle after it was completed, Vega retaliated in the same way and induced Kafyn, who had no way to go, to cross the river on foot with his troops.

As long as Kafuin's main force crossed the river, victory would be inevitable.

You know, Vega had already started planning to build a dam to store water when the main force crossed the river upstream.

He had already calculated that Kaf had little time to investigate the reasons for the drop in water levels and reduced flow after losing the city and being attacked from all sides, so the end of the war was foreseeable at this point.

"I won this round."

Vega waved his hand and said, "Tell the magician to blow up the dam. I want to flood the army!"

----

Rumbling--

When the mage team blew up the dam made of countless sandbags, the water that had been accumulated for several days rolled back like a river in the sky, sweeping down from the upper reaches with the power of thunder, with flying sand and rocks along the way. The sound of the raging waves seemed to make even the earth tremble.

"What is this sound?"

Kafuin, who was only halfway with the large army, suddenly turned pale. Although he vaguely guessed some possibilities, he still held on to the last glimmer of hope, hoping that this was just his fantasy.

But his expectations were ultimately dashed.

When the huge waves swept in, Kafin realized how insignificant human power was. Facing the rushing waves, he didn't even have a chance to escape. A deep feeling of powerlessness spread from the soles of his feet to the bottom of his heart.

What else can he do now?
The only thing that can be done in time is to let out a roar to vent the resentment and anger in my heart.

As for his main force?

Under the huge waves, except for the magicians, even the professionals would be washed to and fro. As for the ordinary troops, they could not even be found. Maybe a few corpses could be found downstream.

“This is the real psychological warfare.”

At this moment, Kraft sighed sincerely.

When a group of generals were discussing psychological warfare a few days ago, he was a little proud. After all, it was something he had left over from decades ago, and in his opinion, Vega's psychological warfare was nothing special.

But at this moment, he finally came to his senses.

It turned out that the psychological warfare he saw was just the tip of the iceberg. When it comes to controlling people's hearts, he can't catch up with the kid sitting on the Diaoyutai. Whether it was repairing the plank road in the open or crossing Chencang in secret, or even the current flooding of the three armies, he was always in Vega's calculations. This war was lost when he started to trick Vega.

One has to admit that some people are born for war. At this moment, Kafin remembered that Veigar had used fire to kill his son Neville, and now he was using water to bury him completely. These two forces of nature had never been used by anyone before, but Veigar had thought of it.

It is no exaggeration to say that Vega opened the door to a new world.

"As long as I live, I will stay away from you."

When Kafin finished his last words, he was instantly engulfed by the flood. Vega, who had been prepared, ordered the troops on both sides to pursue and deploy their formations, and officially began the cleanup of the surviving soldiers.

However, before the cleanup work was halfway done, the victory notification sound was heard.

It turned out that the commander, Major General Kafyn Dahlberg, was washed a hundred meters away by the flood and his head hit a rock, so he died, ending the war that was already decided.

Vega's eyes lit up and he returned to reality.

But he found that the rune chair opposite was empty. His opponent, Major General Kafyn Dahlberg, left the training room without even saying hello, and seemed not to want to speak as a loser.

Da da da--

There was a sound of footsteps.

Then a group of generals from the review team broke into the room. The team leader saluted Vega and said, "Congratulations, Major Vega. Being able to defeat Major General Kafin in this incredible way again is enough to prove your strength. Your inauguration ceremony and commendation meeting will be held in two days. Please look forward to it."

“Thank you for your training, General.” Vega saluted quickly.

But just as we dealt with it here, the generals behind us couldn't wait to surround Vega.

“Major Vega, is this water attack strategy really applicable to real war?”

“Is psychological warfare the general trend of future warfare?”

"Does traditional formation warfare, terrain warfare, and intelligence warfare no longer have a market?"

"..."

Questions one after another were fired at Vega's face like a string of cannonballs, but Vega did not seem impatient. Instead, he smiled happily and even excitedly.

need to know.

Before Vega was promoted, these generals had certainly admired Vega's tactical thinking and marching methods, but no one would talk to Vega with an attitude of asking for advice... or even discussing.

Because no matter how powerful an ant is, it is still an ant. The generals who are arrogant in their hearts may admire that there is an extraordinary ant among a group of ants, but they will never put this ant on the same level as themselves.

But it's different now.

These generals actually began to ask him for advice and discuss tactical issues.

What this situation represents is self-evident.

It was obvious that these generals had placed Vega on an equal footing, so they could ask questions without hesitation and have normal conversations with Vega in an attitude of consultation and discussion.

Vega clenched his fists tightly.

From today on, he officially stepped into the realm of the empire's upper echelons and became one of them.

At this moment, Vega was looking forward to the investiture ceremony in two days, as well as the symbol of honor and status——

Rank of brigadier general.
