Mage Veigar

Chapter 365 Give in to others

Saint Laurent City, the City Lord’s Mansion.

After Vega made the plan to attack the Falling Star City, he immediately began to arrange the siege troops.

According to the intelligence gathered, the Starfall City has 3000 defenders, guarded by an elite group of mages. They have considerable combat power, but compared with the defense level of other satellite cities, it is almost undefended.

This made the plan possible.

However, Vega could only dispatch a force of 3000 at most, and they would attack the Falling Star City from mountain roads and paths, and they did not dare to march on a large scale. Once the number of troops exceeded , not only would the movement be slow, but the reconnaissance troops in the four camps of the Kingdom Army dozens of kilometers away would also notice it.

There are four camps in the east, west, south and north of Saint Laurent.

These four camps originally housed 20 troops, but after being defeated by Vega, they retreated to Saya City to recuperate. Now these four camps serve as the first line of defense to prevent Vega's entire army from breaking out, and also serve to monitor Saint Laurent.

Therefore, in order to hide from the surveillance of these four camps and Twilight and Holy Light Cities, they must march in small scale, detour through small paths and mountain roads as quickly as possible, and launch a surprise attack on Falling Star City when the enemy least expects it.

There are reinforcements coming from all directions of the Falling Star City.

Therefore, this small town is considered the safest city. If Vega suddenly launches an attack, the defenders will certainly be unprepared, and there is a great chance that they can break into the city and burn the enemy's supplies.

That's right, it was burned.

No one stipulated that the way to increase one's own supplies must be to transport the enemy's food to one's own city.

This is Veigar's reverse thinking.

From Vega's perspective, in the final analysis, he and the Kingdom Army were engaged in a contest of time and resources.

So if the enemy's supplies decrease, doesn't that mean his supplies increase?
Originally, the Kingdom Army had almost unlimited time while he only had one month to fight, but Vega burned all of the enemy's supplies, so the enemy had to withdraw, and he became the winner of the war.

Weakening the enemy is equivalent to indirectly strengthening yourself.

Based on this idea, Veigar arranged a force to raid Starfall City.

This is a super elite force with 50% of its troops being high-level military forces. The entire army is armed to the teeth, and Vega has deployed his offensive forces according to the blitzkrieg principles that he is good at.

In the true sense, it has achieved——

Soldiers are valuable and quick.

Of course, real war is far more complicated than talking about it on paper. It does not mean that a surprise attack on the Falling Star City can be successful. Vega did not take it for granted and treat the enemies as fools.

In any case, the other side has very sophisticated command experience.

Therefore, before taking action, you need to use some means to confuse the enemy and confuse the enemy's vision and hearing.

As long as you can blind the enemy's eyes, cover the opponent's ears and make him unable to distinguish the direction, there will be no war that cannot be won and no city that cannot be conquered in the world.

So Vega summoned Menno.

He first affirmed Menno's contribution: "Mr. Menno, I am very satisfied with the navy work you are responsible for. Now the public opinion of Saint Laurent is basically in our hands. All this is your credit. You must be rewarded."

"I dare not take credit for it. Everything I have done is for the general's cause."

Menno bowed slightly with his plump body. He was not very interested in the reward. After all, he was afraid of death and had done too many treasonous things and had nowhere to go, so he could only serve under Vega. If he could return to the kingdom, who would stay here?

"Cough cough."

Vega coughed twice, and a woman came out. The woman was about 27 or 8 years old, with blonde hair and fair skin, and Menno almost drooled at the sight of her.

"Ms. Aini, why are you here?"

Menno was a little restrained. This woman was of course the one he loved. However, since she was a noble lady from Saint Laurent City, and as a member of Menno's underground organization and with his insignificant status, he was certainly not worthy of her. He could only stand in the distance and look up at her.

The goddess in his heart appeared here, and Menno was of course restrained.

Vega was very satisfied with Menno's expression, so he said to him: "Mr. Menno, are you satisfied with this reward? I personally put aside my pride and asked Count Naton to let his beloved daughter, Miss Aini, become your wife."

"Is this true?" Menno was a little dazed.

Annie smiled slightly, walked up and hugged Menno's arm, which made Menno excited again.

He saluted Vega on the spot and said, "General, I am willing to die for you."

After saying this impulsively, Menno looked up at the ceiling in a daze: "Can I go back? Can I go back? Can I still go back?"

For the Nth time, Menno realized that he might really never be able to go back.

Other things could be said to be forced, but if he married a noblewoman from the enemy country, there would be no way to clear himself no matter how hard he tried.

I can't tell the kingdom's censor that I was forced to marry a noble lady, right?
Not only other people, but even he himself would not believe this lie.

Although he felt sorry for his motherland in his heart, Menno couldn't help but lean towards Annie, with a perverted smile on his greasy face. This scene didn't look forced at all.

"Hahaha, you deserve all of this."

Vega couldn't help but smile. He had never been lax in monitoring the core members, so it was easy for him to understand the preferences of his core subordinates. And after all, there was nothing wrong with using the beauty trap to control his subordinates. It was a matter of mutual consent.

Menno was indeed beaming.

He even started planning the wedding in front of Vega: "Thank you for your help, General. Please be sure to attend the wedding of Miss Aini and me and be our witness."

"my pleasure."

Seeing that the situation was about right, Vega began to express his true intentions: "But let's put this matter aside for now. There is a task that you need to complete. After this task is completed, I will personally organize your wedding."

"Mission?"

Menno's body stiffened, he seemed to... fall into a pit?
"Don't be nervous."

Vega smiled amiably and said, "You see, the Saint Laurent water army market is now saturated. I just want you to go to Saya City to expand our water army business. This should not be difficult for you."

"General, could Saya City be the headquarters of the Kingdom's Army..." Menno was about to cry.

But Vega's smile became even brighter.

He handed the plan to Menno and said, "Don't worry, just go with peace of mind. You can come back and marry Miss Aini in seven days at the shortest and half a month at the longest. I promise you that as long as you follow the plan, there will be absolutely no danger to your life."

What else could Menno do?
He is also desperate.

But no matter how desperate you are, since you are on this pirate ship, there is no chance to refuse.
