Mage Veigar

Chapter 780 Two Thirds
As mentioned before.

Only by knowing both yourself and the enemy can you win every battle, and Vega has always been an officer who pays great attention to the advantages of both the enemy and yourself.

He knew it clearly.

In this war, the Holy Dragon Army, as the defending side, was much stronger than the Galan Army in every aspect.

Vega knew this clearly before coming to the Holy Dragon Kingdom, but compared with the Holy Dragon Army, the current Galan Army is different from before. Vega did see the unique advantages of the Galan Army.

Although this advantage was so subtle that even Augustus didn’t notice it, and it’s not an exaggeration to say that it was negligible, Vega had indeed grasped something that anyone would subconsciously ignore, and it could be called an advantage that was not an advantage at all—

Four aviation corps.

Not more, not less, just the right number of air corps compared to the Holy Dragon Army. They became crucial in this war, and could even be said to be a turning point.

In wars where the army is the main force.

When the Jialan Army was thousands of miles away.

At the moment when the rebels are deployed to attract attention!

Who would pay special attention to two more air corps? How could two insignificant air corps change the situation of the war?
At least Augustus didn't pay any attention from beginning to end. He never thought that Vega would use the lives of 500,000 of his own kind as bait to trap him in this valley.

As a commander, this strategy was undoubtedly successful.

But in Augustus's opinion, Vega is the real traitor to humanity. His attitude towards his own kind is even more sub-dragon than that of a sub-dragon like him. The most ironic thing is that those human soldiers still worship him as a hero who saved the world.

“I never thought that one day I would be defeated by my own strategy.”

Augustus sighed in regret. If he still couldn't see Vega's true intentions at this point, then he couldn't be considered a commander.

need to know.

His strategy is to use humans to fight against humans in order to weaken Vega's strength. No matter how many humans die, he has no psychological burden. Even if he exchanges 10 lives for 1 life of the Galan Army, he will not suffer any loss.

But he never expected it.

Vega actually used the same strategy.

He played with the psychology of his own kind, painted a big pie in the sky for them, and finally used 500,000 people to weaken his strength, and finally let his own direct Jialan Army take advantage of the situation.

From a human perspective.

It can be said to be extremely cruel.

But Augustus had to admit that he had been defeated, and completely defeated.

He came to this war with the intention of weakening the strength of the Jialan Army, and was prepared to annihilate the million-strong human army in the East, but in the end he failed to cause any loss to the Jialan Army.

The Jialan army won the war without bloodshed.

The little kid who was less than half his height was still standing at the top. He had never defeated Vega once, either in the past or now. No, to be precise, was there anyone in this world who had ever defeated him?

"I really want to die here in battle."

Subconsciously, Augustus sighed, knowing that all his efforts had been wasted.

Of course, the death he was talking about did not mean that he wanted to die at this moment. As Vega said before, perhaps for Augustus, if he died deceiving himself at the moment when he thought he had won, he would not have to bear the blow of the truth.

Achieve the goal and die on the battlefield.

There is probably nothing happier than this.

But unfortunately, Augustus learned the truth. He did not defeat Vega, let alone achieve his goal. If he died in this situation, he would probably die with regrets.

At this moment.

He no longer wanted to die. Rather, he wanted to ask God for another 500 years to fight a few more, dozens, hundreds of wars with Vega and see the full picture of this iceberg. "We should go back."

Five days later, Augustus summoned all the sub-dragons in the army and said this.

Just like the literal meaning.

Augustus was ready to return to the West with all the Asian dragons. He knew that the war situation in the East was completely hopeless. He had lost this battle completely. To say that he was completely defeated was a compliment to him...

His strategy was discovered by the enemy.

The enemy used his strategy to defeat him, and he didn't realize it from beginning to end. He only reacted when the situation was already irreversible. This is a true portrayal of low-level officers being fooled by senior generals.

Is the difference between him and Vega really like the difference between a low-ranking officer and a high-ranking general?

If that was the case, he couldn't die.

“We must catch up.”

Augustus strengthened his belief and led all the dragon species to break out overnight.

Vega noticed this, but he did not stop it.

Just as Augustus had never thought of keeping Vega even when the rebel army was completely wiped out, Vega also watched Augustus break through and leave with several sub-dragons.

It's not that I don't want to stop it, but I knew it was futile from the beginning.

Because Augustus was guarded by several Holy Dragon Envoys, with his ability, even if he could defeat that group of Holy Dragon Envoys, it would not be done in just a few minutes. It would take at least a day.

One day was enough for Augustus to leave safely.

Therefore, Vega was not going to do anything meaningless. He would rather clean up the mess than spend the time there.

of course.

If Augustus had led his men to break out when he was defeated just five days ago, Vega would have gone to great lengths to delay him here and not let him leave.

The reason is very simple.

Only by trapping Augustus here can the Holy Dragon City be left leaderless, and his Galan Army can launch a surprise attack, easily defeat the remaining 30 defenders, and capture the entire Holy Dragon City.

Not even a raid.

As long as the news of Augustus' defeat is released, the defenders will probably surrender automatically, because the human troops have no good feelings towards the dragon race, and when they learn that they can serve the human regime again, why not surrender?

Augustus knew this, too.

Knowing that the situation was hopeless, he wisely did not choose to break out five days ago, but chose to return to the West with the dragon species now, so that Vaigar would have no reason to stop him.

This is probably the tacit understanding among senior commanders.

I won't make any futile struggles, and you won't make any futile attacks.

With such tacit cooperation, Vega created a history of conquering the United Kingdom in 3 months, surpassing the Asian dragon species. In less than 2 days in 10 months, he officially disintegrated the Holy Dragon Army and conquered all the territories of the Old Kingdom in the East.

Although only two battles were fought.

However, Augustus has no more soldiers to fight in the East, and the Holy Dragon King cannot send reinforcements into this bottomless pit. Their strategy is not to fight a decisive battle with Vega now, but to unify the Western land and fight against Vega.

Hence the war came here.

The flags of the Jialan Empire were already fluttering in the sky above two-thirds of the eastern land.
