Chapter 638 Everyone has their own plans
The situation now is extremely urgent.

Augustus and Palitzer both realized this.

Therefore, as the commander of the Silver Dragon Legion, Palitzer suggested: "Now your Red Dragon Legion and my Silver Dragon Legion have a total of 800,000 soldiers. If we rush to Jiasili City now, we will definitely be able to recapture Jiasili City."

“Please don’t be too optimistic.”

"We have 800,000 troops, while the enemy only has 500,000!"

Palitzer emphasized again, "We are the sub-dragon species favored by the gods. Our army has the most powerful combat power. We are absolutely incomparable to those humans. Victory will definitely belong to us."

"Do you really think we can win if we just charge in with our army?"

Augustus had long lost his pride and arrogance when facing Vega. His heart was already filled with humility, so he said: "What I am really worried about is that we will be wiped out on the way before we even reach the city of Gacilly."

"Are you kidding?"

"Are you underestimating Vega Saint Laurent?"

Augustus asked back, "I'm not exaggerating. Even an army as powerful as ours couldn't defeat his dynasty army. If you are confident that you can take back the city of Gacilly by sending your army there, then go ahead. I'm sorry that I can't accompany you."

"Then tell me what to do!"

Palitzer was a little annoyed by what he said. He was not a very patient person and had no opinions of his own. After hearing what Augustus said, he was at a loss for what to do.

"In my opinion, we should split our forces into two groups."

Augustus made a comment that puzzled Palitzer.

"How do we split our forces into two groups?"

If you don't understand, ask. Although Palitzer doesn't have any opinions of his own, he is obedient and will ask questions immediately when he encounters something he doesn't understand. He is not like other laymen who pretend to know when they don't.

"You take the open path, and I take the secret path."

Augustus chuckled and said, "Recall carefully how that little devil took over our Gaxili City."

"One army is in the west, attracting our attention, while the other army..."

Palitzer's eyes sparkled. "And the other army is lying in ambush in the east. After our attention is drawn to the west, they will take the opportunity to capture the city of Gasil in the east!"

"Yes."

Augustus said: "This time we might as well learn his way of fighting. You attract his attention in the open. I don't believe he won't send troops to ambush you. Once he sends troops to ambush you, the city of Gasil will be empty. At that time, my army will secretly bypass the Kareni Mountains to the Gasilien High Ridge and recapture the city of Gasil from the rear!"

"Perfect! This method is absolutely perfect!"

Palitzer was so excited that it was difficult to express. For the Holy Dragon Kingdom, which had always been straightforward in fighting wars, any strategy was a revolutionary innovation. No wonder Palitzer felt that the method Augustus came up with was perfect and impeccable.

"Without further ado."

Augustus took a breath and said, "Since it is difficult to march in the Kareni Mountains, my army must set out now. Your Silver Dragon Legion can march to Gasilien City in seven days. This way, when you are ambushed, I will be able to arrive at Gasilien High Ridge and launch a sneak attack on Gasilien City from behind."

"I understand. I will do my best to hold back their main force."

Palitzer gave a resounding assurance, and it was obvious that he was confident in this plan.

Meanwhile, in the city of Gashiri, Vega had already completed the cleanup of the city.

He ordered his troops to dig out the remaining soldiers of the Holy Dragon Kingdom and kill them all, but he did not order the massacre of the civilians of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, because the civilians of the Holy Dragon Kingdom were physically stronger than humans. If they were reduced to slaves and sent to the north to mine, it would be a very meaningful thing, which would greatly enhance the productivity of the war airships of the dynasty and the empire.

Moreover, most of the sub-dragon species have been relocated from overseas.

If you want to exterminate the entire clan, it will be a time-consuming and laborious task. After all, the number of sub-dragon species is too large. Instead of spending manpower and resources to catch them all in one fell swoop, it is better to treat them in their own way and reduce them to slaves.

Except these.

Vega was welcomed by the human civilians of Kasiri City.

Having suffered from the enslavement of the Asian dragons, they no longer care about the hatred that the kingdom once had towards the empire and dynasty. To them, whoever can save them from the dire straits is their faith.

Now this belief has become Vega.

Tanier Rheinberg, who had just defected to Vega, came to the meeting room and said, "Congratulations, Your Highness. The city of Gashiri has stabilized. Now you can use the city of Gashiri to form a corner with Kareni and the City of Ice and Fire to create a defense circle that is easy to defend and difficult to attack."

"Your Excellency General, it's too early to be happy."

Vega stopped what he was doing and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the Holy Dragon Army from Naxisir City must be heading this way."

"Your Highness is wise."

Tanier sat on the chair, put his cane aside and said, "Everything is as you expected. We received intelligence that the Holy Dragon Kingdom claimed to have sent two million troops from Naxisir City towards us, vowing to massacre Jasiri with blood and turn you into ashes."

"bluff."

Vega shook his head and said, "They have at most 800,000 soldiers. Where did they get 2 million? They want to scare me off with numbers. They underestimate me. But even if the enemy only has 800,000, I am not sure I can defend the city of Gashiri."

"Excuse me, sir, is there any good solution?"

Vega looked at Tanniel, not sure whether he was assessing his ability intentionally or asking a question casually.

"I'm afraid Your Highness has already made up his mind."

Tanier licked his scarlet lips and said, "Since we can't defend it, why not take the initiative to attack?"

"Take the initiative? I'd like to hear more about it." Vega looked at Tanier intentionally or unintentionally.

Tanier was not fooled at all. "Please don't play dumb, Your Highness. Given your personality, you will never fight to the death with the enemy using the last line of defense of the city wall. If I am not mistaken, you probably have planned to ambush the Holy Dragon Kingdom's army on the way and capture them all in one fell swoop."

"Hahaha, great idea!"

Vega nodded, then shook his head and said, "This method is indeed feasible. Judging from the war style of the Holy Dragon Nation, they have never been very cautious. Now that the city of Gaxili has been lost, their commander must be confused. Ambushing them on the way at this time may be effective."

"But——"

Vega looked at the map of the Holy Dragon Nation and said, "Is your appetite a little too small?"

"Your Highness means..."

Tanniel followed Vega's gaze and looked at the map. The place marked by Vega on the map was so dazzling that he dared not look directly at it. For the first time, he realized the gap between him and Vega.
