Mage Veigar

Chapter 750 Strategic Policy
Augustus was full of confidence in this battle.

The reason is very simple.

Because his goal was not to win the war.

Just as the Holy Dragon King had instructed him, as long as he could use the human army to weaken the strength of the Jialan Empire and cause it to suffer heavy damage when it took over the entire East, he would have won the war.

Use the way of the person to treat the person's body.

Using humans to fight against humans, this is the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s plan this time.

No matter which side is defeated in the end, there will be no loss for the sub-dragon species. Therefore, the Holy Dragon Kingdom deployed more than one million troops in this battle. Except for a few senior officers headed by Augustus, there was almost no sub-dragon species among these one million.

Holy Dragon Kingdom, Gasili City.

Augustus arrived here with an army of 300,000.

For the first battle, Augustus did not intend to commit his entire army. For the defender, directly committing all the main forces would be the most foolish behavior because you do not know the enemy's strengths.

So the first war, the second war, the third war...

We can even use more wars to find out the true strength of the enemy.

In order to achieve the goal of knowing yourself and your enemy, initial investment is necessary.

Therefore, in previous wars, both the attacker and defender would hide their cards from each other. Whoever used up their cards first and let the other side see through them first would be one step closer to defeat and one step further away from victory.

Deploy an army of 300,000.

Augustus did come to see something clearly.

For example, the existence that the Holy Dragon Kingdom fears the most is the Divine Mage.

This existence is like a thorn in the throat, and the Holy Dragon Nation has never forgotten it. For a race like them with a long history, they know better than anyone else how terrifying the divine wizard is.

The Holy Dragon Kingdom has set up a big chess game.

Of course, the Jialan Empire would not be late either.

This time, Vega led an army of 500,000 and personally led the army to start the first battle of the War of Revenge. At this time, his army had been deployed in the Ice and Fire City of the Jialan Empire, ready to launch an attack on the City of Gasiri in the Holy Dragon Kingdom at any time.

Among the five hundred thousand troops.

Including the 300,000 elite troops that fought against the World Coalition Forces. These 300,000 have become the strongest army of the Jialan Empire. For them who have died once, there is nothing in this world that they are afraid of anymore.

After all, no matter how terrifying the Holy Dragon Army is, can it really bring fear beyond death?

In addition to 300,000 elite troops and 200,000 ordinary troops, the five air corps gave Vega an advantage in the fight for air supremacy, because the Holy Dragon Kingdom only had two air formations and did not deploy any flying dragons to fight for air supremacy.

Finally, there is Xia, the star-level mage, and the fictitious god-level mage.

Shia will become a powerful weapon for siege, allowing Vega to advance the front faster without worrying about being blocked outside the city by the enemy and dragged into a quagmire of tug-of-war.

Vega also made arrangements for domestic security.

In the court, Iroh is in charge of political power and no longer manages the military power. The military power is handed over to General Hausmann Christian, who demonstrated his loyalty to Vega with his actions during the last anti-rebel war.

The responsibility of controlling the political and military power remained with the Mennos.

After the kingdom was destroyed, Menno, who had nowhere to go, became the most loyal.

Besides.

Vega conveyed the news of the upcoming war against the Holy Dragon Kingdom to the Jialan Empire branch headed by Qilis. The reason why they are unable to complete the meeting with their own country is because of the Empire's Kaleini City and the Holy Dragon Kingdom's Jiasili City in the middle. As long as Jiasili City is in hand.

This would mean that Qilis and Tanniel Rheinberg could complete the reunion of their own troops. At that time, the territory of the Galan Empire would be connected, directly dividing the Empire and the Holy Dragon Kingdom, making it impossible for the two countries to join forces again to fight against him.

Once the territory of the old Principality of Baya was taken into its arms.

This is equivalent to forming an encirclement of the entire empire. By then, the east and north of the empire will all be the territory of the Jialan Empire, there will be the Jialan Mountains like a natural moat in the west, and the foggy Dragon Sea in the south. The empire will be left with a dead end.

Therefore, Vega dreams of having the city of Gasili.

But Vega was not in a hurry.

Because he had guessed a little about why the Holy Dragon Nation did not give up the East, but instead invested a large number of troops in the Eastern territory.

This is to hurt yourself by a thousand and injure the enemy by eight hundred.

Supporting a large number of human armies to fight against humans is indeed what the sub-dragon species that regards humans as pigs would do.

As for the racial equality that the Asian dragon race is now promoting?

That was just a political necessity. The so-called racial equality policy was just a means to control humans more easily and use them at the same time. If the positions were reversed, Vega himself would implement this strategy to stabilize his regime.

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

Only weak, ignorant, and easily deceived fools would believe such nonsense and at the same time offer their loyalty to the dragon race who slaughter their compatriots and do not treat them as human beings.

As for smart people?
I think the truly smart people have already protected themselves, and those who are between fools and smart people are probably dead.

It was because Vega guessed the intention of the Holy Dragon Kingdom that he did not rush to advance.

Although analyzing from the current situation, a frontal attack can definitely lead to a successful war, but Vega does not want to fall into the trap of the Holy Dragon Kingdom using humans to weaken the Galan Empire.

He stayed in the city of ice and fire for seven days.

During these seven days, Vega pondered and began to think about what strategic approach he should implement in the upcoming battle against the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

A strategic approach is not a specific tactic.

However, strategic guidelines are the breeding ground for a series of ingenious strategies and winning tactics.

To put it in a descriptive way, in a protracted war, the strategic approach is the trunk, and the countless winning strategies are the branches. The branches and leaves can only thrive if they rely on the trunk.

This is just like when we fought against the World Alliance.

After analyzing the enemy and his own situation at the time, Vega finally came up with a strategic plan.

The fox takes advantage of the tiger's power to bully others and avoids the real thing.

Using a series of means, he forcibly disguised himself as an invincible army, not aiming to defeat the enemy as the main goal, but to scare the enemy away as the main goal. It was relying on this strategic policy that Vega successfully achieved the ultimate goal of scaring off the coalition forces of various countries and regaining the territory of the old dynasty. This is the importance of strategic policies.

But this strategic approach is clearly inappropriate here.

Because the Holy Dragon Kingdom has made it clear that it wants to fight a war with you to the death. At this time, no matter how you intimidate, no matter how you pretend to be powerful, or how you evade the real situation, Augustus will not be scared by you, and in the end it will be you who is exposed.

Since neither the strategy of relying on the power of another nor the strategy of engaging the enemy head-on will work.

So what kind of strategic approach should be implemented?
Vega had no idea about this for a while, but until he had an idea, he would never lead his army to die.
