Mage Veigar

Chapter 562 New forces

Vega couldn't understand the United Kingdom's actions.

After all, he is not an omniscient and omnipotent god. The reason why he can anticipate the enemy's moves in war is just a reasonable guess based on a large amount of evidence and intelligence.

This time the kingdom withdrew its troops suddenly without any warning, let alone any evidence or intelligence, so Vega can only let time pass and wait for the day when the truth comes out.

Therefore, there was only one thing Vega had to think about now.

That is, what impact will the United Kingdom's sudden withdrawal from the Alliance have on the four countries' attack on the empire?
The answer is no impact.

Originally, in the plan of Vega and the Free Alliance, the United Kingdom was only a dispensable auxiliary country in this war like the Principality of Baya, and the real main force has always been Vega and the Free Alliance. Therefore, the loss of a auxiliary country in the war did not have much impact on the direction of the war. Neither Vega nor the Free Alliance would cancel the alliance because of the Kingdom.

Of course, there is another point that we have to think about.

That is, could it be possible that the United Kingdom's sudden withdrawal from the Covenant Countries was an attempt to take advantage of the dynasty's empty rear to attack the Holy Dynasty?

Vega took two steps back and forth, and finally shook his head.

This might have been possible in the past, but it is absolutely impossible now.

The reason is very simple. Before, Vega did not take over Kareni City, but only the northern hinterland. If a war broke out in the dynasty, it might not be able to return to defend in time because of Kareni City in the middle. At that time, it was the best time for the kingdom to attack the dynasty, and the winning rate was as high as 70%.

But now...

The Dynasty's City of Ice and Fire, the Empire's City of Kalini, and the northern hinterland are connected in a straight line. If the kingdom dares to attack the dynasty, Vega's army can follow Kalini City and directly pass through the national highway to encircle and suppress the kingdom's army at the fastest speed.

So now even if the kingdom had a few more courage, they would not dare to declare war on the dynasty.

In summary.

The possibility that the kingdom was preparing to take advantage of the situation could be ruled out.

Unable to find out why the kingdom suddenly withdrew from the alliance and the entire army withdrew back home, Vega finally chose to put the matter on hold for the time being and instead concentrate on preparing the attack plan on Ropus City.

time flies.

Half a month passed in a flash, and Vega's temporary airport was ready for use.

That night, three Vega air forces took off from the temporary airport in Kaleni City and arrived safely at the temporary airport in the Lopus Canyon. Now the airspace of the entire Lopus Canyon has been occupied by Vega, with more than 20 war airships patrolling back and forth all day long. Once the enemy's air force makes a move, Vega's air force can take off and resist immediately.

In response to Vega's action, Ropus City did not take any countermeasures.

Foster has now lost all his fighting spirit due to Vega's defeat, and even feels a little scared.

He believed that the battle line between the Lopus Grand Canyon and the Lopus City was too long, and it was still unclear whether the rash dispatch of the air force could prevent Vega from gaining air superiority. If the Lopus City Air Force was delayed in the Lopus Grand Canyon by Vega's Air Force, then Vega's army would take the opportunity to attack the city. They would not be able to get any air force cover, and there was a considerable chance that Lopus City would be captured.

Therefore.

After much deliberation, Foster decided to give up all air supremacy except for the airspace over Ropes City. He believed that if he wanted to defend Ropes City until winter, he must shrink the front line and fight closely around Ropes City, and it would not be advisable to extend the front line too long.

Vega has seen through Foster.

From the fact that the other side didn't even dare to send out the air force to stop his actions, it can be seen that Foster has probably been driven autistic by him, and it is entirely possible to speculate what countermeasures the other side will take next.

Let’s defend Lopus to the death.

Vega has decided to launch a general attack on Ropus City in five days. The battle plan is extremely simple and crude. The air force of the army will delay the enemy's air force, and the army will take advantage of this gap to launch a siege by self-destructing, which will injure 800 enemies and 1,000 of its own. Anyway, all his men are surrendered soldiers, so Vega doesn't feel bad. One month.

This is the time Vega set for himself to attack the city.

He hopes that in a month, he can officially conquer the North and truly become the King of the North.

But on the eve of the siege, the reason why the United Kingdom suddenly withdrew its troops was finally revealed.

"Your Highness, we have found out the reason why the kingdom withdrew its troops."

At three o'clock in the morning, the head of the direct reconnaissance team met with Vega overnight, even without caring whether Vega was still asleep.

"Report immediately."

Vega's face was full of sternness. The leader of the reconnaissance team dared to wake him up at this time. It was obvious that the reason for the kingdom's sudden withdrawal was extremely important, so important that he had to report it overnight at the risk of being blamed.

"The kingdom's homeland has been attacked by the enemy."

The head of the reconnaissance team looked a little strange. "According to the latest intelligence, the enemy is unstoppable. They took Dragon City overnight and fought all the way from Dragon City to the kingdom's capital, Bauhinia City, within 15 days. Now King Nordrian is leading an army of 700,000 and seems to be ready to fight the enemy to the death in Bauhinia City."

hiss.

Vega took a breath.

What kind of force is so powerful? Even a powerful empire can only advance cautiously after conquering the Dragon City. Who else in the Jialan Continent can force the kingdom into such a situation?
A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

The United Kingdom is not a small principality without foundation. The last fall of Dragon City made the Kingdom learn from its mistakes and it has already built Dragon City into an iron wall. But now the intelligence tells him that Dragon City was captured overnight and the enemy reached the capital Bauhinia City within 15 days. Even the Empire and the Free Alliance may not be able to do this.

"Which force?"

Veigar couldn't wait to find out who this force was.

"Your Highness, I don't know either."

The head of the reconnaissance team said with embarrassment, "According to intelligence, the number of enemy air forces is currently unknown, but there are about 300,000 ground forces. This army flies a flag with a black dragon emblem, and their soldiers have scales all over their right faces. Their combat effectiveness is extremely amazing. In terms of individual strength, they are probably stronger than the Free Alliance. I checked the genealogy of hundreds of clans on the continent overnight, and there is no corresponding race or country."

"Could it be that this force appeared out of thin air?"

"Check it, check it again carefully!"

Vega was amused by the words of the reconnaissance regiment leader. With so many soldiers and such powerful combat capability, it was impossible for such an army to be hidden until today without being exposed.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. This force is indeed untraceable."

The head of the reconnaissance team said with great trepidation: "Although I have not been able to find out where this force came from, you must be familiar with the name of the commander of the vanguard of this force."

"explain."

"Aiden Gary."

Veigar's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said in disbelief, "Is that Aiden Gary, who was deceived in the war on the west coast, fled to the east coast with his remaining troops, was surrounded by Iroh and had no place to stay, and finally disappeared in the depths of the Dragon Sea?"
