Mage Veigar

Chapter 588 Mysterious Logic
Both sides have a chance of winning.

Vega's series of measures before the war only forced the winning rate of both sides from 19:1 to 50:50.

This is not an exaggeration.

Considering the strength of the Holy Dragon Kingdom's 30 troops that destroyed the kingdom in three months, this : odds is still optimistic. In the eyes of the Empire, the Alliance, and the countries on the continent, the dynasty's chances of winning are actually less than %.

Fortunately, Vega withstood the pressure.

He did this before the war, which directly destroyed the momentum of the Holy Dragon Kingdom and brought the chances of winning the war to 50-50.

Now, the prerequisite for victory is in place.

What we need to see next is whether Aiden Gary is more virtuous and can suppress everything with the force of a mountain, or whether Vega is more powerful and can turn the tide with a little effort.

"Your Highness, what is our battle plan?"

At the meeting, Okasos asked the questions in his mind.

Seeing that the war was about to begin, Vega remained unhurried, which made Okasos a little anxious. Therefore, at today's regular meeting, he could no longer hold back and asked this question.

"Battle plan?"

This time, it was Vega who looked at Okasos with a puzzled look on his face and said, "Don't you know this all along?"

"..."

Okasos felt that Vega was insulting his intelligence. He moved the corners of his mouth and said in a stiff tone: "I know that Your Highness is known as the best general in the continent and has unparalleled military talent, but if you don't tell me, how can stupid people like me understand?"

"what?"

Vega showed a surprised expression on his face. He looked at the officers and said, "Don't you know this yet?"

Everyone looked at each other.

One of the division commanders stood up and said, "I really don't know... No, rather than saying I don't know, isn't it that the general deliberately waited until the war came to tell us in order to keep the plan secret?"

"..."

This time it was Vega's turn to be speechless.

He, the officers below, and Okasos stared at each other, having no idea how to start the conversation.

Before all the wars, Vega never mentioned his battle plan. This was not for the sake of confidentiality, but because he had confidence in the loyalty of the senior officers. He simply thought that since no one had raised the question, everyone should have known it.

Vega didn't know.

The officers in the conference room only made things complicated because of Vega's military talent, and they misunderstood that Vega was deliberately keeping the plan secret and would not reveal it until the war came.

in short.

Vega thought these officers were too smart, and these officers imagined Vega to be too complicated, automatically imagining every random action of his to be mysterious and profound.

It stands to reason.

It would be a good thing to clarify this.

But Okasos felt extremely aggrieved. He realized that Vega was not deliberately making things difficult for him in order to avenge his betrayal, but was expressing his true feelings. He really thought that he understood the whole plan, but he understood nothing.

Suffocated!
If he wasn't deliberately making things difficult for me, wouldn't it make him look even more stupid?
As a star mage, Okasos felt for the first time that his intelligence was insulted.

After Vega knew this, he sincerely apologized to Okasos: "I am very sorry, Lord Okasos, I really didn't know that you didn't know the full plan of this operation. I will compile the operation plan into a booklet later for your reference."

"First of all, thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

Okasos raised his hand to stop me and said, "Secondly, Your Highness, please stop apologizing for this matter. If you insist on apologizing, I will refuse to accept it."

For the first time in his life, Okasos felt that accepting an apology was such a humiliating thing.

If he accepted this apology, wouldn't it be a direct admission that his IQ needs to be improved? He couldn't even see through Vega's plan.

But Okasos didn't know that something even more humiliating would happen the next day.

Also in the conference room, also a regular meeting, Vega finally compiled the battle plan into a book and distributed it to each general and Okasos, but Okasos's book was slightly different from the books of other officers.

Specifically.

The titles of other officers' booklets were "Dynasty Defense Operation Plan", while the title of his booklet was "Dynasty Defense Operation Plan That Even Pigs Can Understand".

"Your Highness the Prince!"

Okasos was immediately annoyed. He pointed at the plan and asked, "What does this mean?"

"You don't have to thank me, sir."

Vega said innocently, "After all, you are not a real officer, so it is inevitable that you will have some difficulty understanding the terminology. Therefore, I deliberately used the simplest colloquialisms to write this plan. Including the title, it took me a lot of effort."

"you……"

Okasos finally understood what it meant to be a villain taking revenge from morning till night. This was obviously revenge for the time when he was sold to a Saint Professional, so he used this harmless method to retaliate against him.

What can he do?
You can't fall out with Vega over such a small matter, otherwise it would seem that he, a star mage, is a little petty.

Swallow your teeth.

Okasos sat back in his seat and said to a division commander next to him, "General... Gan, Gande... you just took my plan by mistake. This one is yours."

"I think your subordinate has taken the right thing."

"No! You must have taken the wrong one!"

Under Okasos's threatening tone, the division commander broke out in a cold sweat and took the book "Dynasty Defense Operation Plan Even Pigs Can Understand" and began to read it page by page. The only sound in the entire conference room was the rustling sound.

Vega's battle plan this time was very simple.

That is, the main force is Okasos's magic attack, supplemented by the main force's tug-of-war. The only unexpected thing is that the place of the decisive battle with the enemy is not in the City of Ice and Fire, but in the Nigard Forest more than 50 kilometers away from the City of Ice and Fire.

"Excuse me, Your Highness."

When Okasos saw this, he immediately asked, "I have no objection to this plan in other aspects, but why do we have to abandon the tall walls of the Ice and Fire City and travel a long distance to the barren Nigard Forest to fight? Isn't this giving up the advantage?"

"Your Excellency, have you misunderstood something?"

Vega smiled. He was no longer satisfied with the idea of ​​repelling the enemy. "Although the title of my plan says Dynasty Defense Operation Plan, who said that a defensive war must be fought and the city must be defended?"

"I'm so sorry."

Vega said in a matter-of-fact tone: "In my war thinking, I have never known what it means to defend a city. Do you think that defeating the enemy means winning the war? You are too easily satisfied."

"The enemy came and you wanted to leave because you couldn't defeat them?"

"What a joke! There is no such a cheap thing in the world."

Veigar said in a resounding voice: "In my opinion, the so-called defense of the city is just a last resort. Offense is always the best defense. As long as we annihilate the enemy, won't we have defended the city?"

After hearing Vega's remarks, the officers present were speechless.

"As long as we annihilate the enemy, won't we be able to defend the city?"

This is the mysterious logic of war. I clearly feel that something is wrong, but I am speechless.
