Chapter 881 Holy Dragon Province

There is something to do with home.

Aiden Gary, who has suffered too much, is not a short-sighted person.

He knew clearly that if he coveted the territory of the Holy Dragon Kingdom now, he would eventually be dragged down by the overly long defense line, put himself in a passive position, or even be directly destroyed by the Jialan Kingdom.

At this time, abandoning the Holy Dragon Kingdom, shrinking the defense line, and returning to defend the homeland is the strategy of retreating to advance.

Because in another half a year, winter will be here.

As long as they can hold out for half a year, the heavy snow will freeze the Jialan Mountains, and the 500,000 Jialan troops here will have no way to advance or retreat, and the reinforcements from the Jialan Empire will not be able to provide timely support. By then, the Western countries will see that they are foolproof and will certainly not be afraid.

So when winter comes.

If Vega doesn't leave, he will face the hostility of the entire West.

To describe it, it's probably like a lamb falling into a pack of wolves.

Under the attack of a group.

Not to mention a mere 500,000 troops, even if another 500,000 were added, they would just be a piece of cake for them.

After defeating these 500,000 troops, the Holy Dragon Kingdom's territories occupied by them will naturally be returned to their original owners. Therefore, this retreat is only for a better return next time.

Aiden Gary told Grand Duke Baya about this.

After listening to Aiden Gary's analysis, Grand Duke Baya immediately smiled and was no longer as gloomy as before.

If he could get the territory back in about half a year by handing it over, and at the same time destroy the prestige of the Jialan Kingdom, he would still be willing to do this kind of business. He understood the principle of giving and gaining.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured."

Aiden Gary assured: "Although I dare not say with 100% certainty that I can defeat Vega, I am confident that by shrinking the defense line and combining the strength of the whole country, I can hold off the attack of the Jialan Empire for half a year. Your Majesty, please rest assured."

"I naturally believe in the general's ability."

Grand Duke Baya let out a long breath, and then ordered an officer, "Immediately order all troops in the Holy Dragon Kingdom to withdraw back to their own country. At the same time, send a letter to tell Vega Saint Laurent that our country is only helping him to manage the Holy Dragon Kingdom on his behalf, and has no intention of infringing on territorial sovereignty or trampling on dignity. Please don't misunderstand, His Majesty Vega Saint Laurent."

"I'll take care of it now, sir."

"and many more."

The officer was about to leave when he was stopped by Grand Duke Baya.

He grinned and said, "Add another sentence at the end of the letter, saying that His Majesty Vega Saint Laurent is also requested to pay the management fee."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The officer left the chamber.

Grand Duke Baya, who had solved the problem, laughed out loud.

After making sure that Vega couldn't do anything to him, his last words were just to disgust Vega.

Simultaneously.

Following the order from Grand Duke Baya, the Principality Army of the Holy Dragon Kingdom began to withdraw to their homeland. However, before retreating, the Principality Army carried out a routine plundering, leaving a lot of mess for Vega.

So when Vega arrived at the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

He suddenly discovered that the entire country was in tatters.

Of course, he also received mocking letters from Grand Duke Baya.

Vega didn't care about these two things.

Not only did these two petty actions not cause him any trouble, they could even be said to have indirectly helped him.

Why can we say this? Originally, the Baya Principality government took over when the Holy Dragon government fell and the country was in a panic. Stabilizing the overall situation was equivalent to indirectly gaining the favor of civilians and businessmen. Everyone longed for a stable and orderly environment.

And for the Jialan Kingdom which came from afar.

The civilians should be quite hostile, because it was the Jialan Kingdom that destroyed the peace here. At this time, even if the Principality Army withdrew from the Holy Dragon Kingdom, the people would definitely be on the side of the Baya Principality, and most of them would probably very much hope that the Principality Army would be able to return here one day.

But it happened at this time.

However, Grand Duke Baya was so petty that he did not forget to plunder a piece of land before leaving.

This unfriendly behavior directly caused the civilians whose interests were harmed to no longer have a favorable impression of the Principality of Baya, and it could even be said that they were hostile to the gangsters and bandits of the Principality’s army.

Without the Principality Army, the country naturally fell into chaos again.

It was natural that it would be very easy for the Jialan Army to regain control at this time and win the hearts of the people.

Compared to winning the hearts of the people, Vega thinks the other messes are not worth mentioning.

Therefore, Vega not only did not care about Grand Duke Baya's behavior, but if he really met Grand Duke Baya, he might even thank him for being the bad guy and greatly helping the Galan Army.

And this is the key point.

Neither Grand Duke Baya nor Aiden Gary saw it.

Grand Duke Baya and Aiden Gary, who have always been in high positions, certainly would not care about the interests of the lower levels of the pyramid. They only care about themselves, so it seems reasonable for them to plunder before leaving, so they don't think there is anything wrong.

rather say.

The powerful and wealthy people who are born with a silver spoon in their mouths will not pay attention to these things, they are used to it.

Only Vega, who traveled through time and came from a grassroots background, would not ignore these details.

So next.

Vega did not rush to use force against the Principality of Baya, but began to stabilize the situation.

After considering the pros and cons, he did not lead his army to the former capital of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, but instead stationed them in a major city close to the Jialan Mountains, the closest to the east. The name of this city is Star Wind City, Xilinlaner.

On the day of entering the city.

Vega announced the establishment of the Galan Empire and the Holy Dragon Province in the west, with the capital of the province being the City of Star Wind, Xilinlaner.

At the same time, he appointed Celis Rodney as a senior official of the Holy Dragon Province, in charge of military and political power and enjoying a supreme status; he appointed Tanier Rheinberg as the supreme military commander of the Holy Dragon Province, in charge of military power, but under the control of Celis Rodney.

At last.

In order to stabilize the Holy Dragon Province, Vega appointed the Holy Dragon King and Augustus as honorary senior officials and senior officials of the Holy Dragon Province respectively. The two still only enjoy honors and do not have the right to participate in politics.

The Jialan Army suppressed the rioters, established a security team, and took over the government.

This, coupled with the return of the former king, gave them renewed confidence.

The chaotic situation soon stabilized.

In the end, because the Kingdom of Jialan gave them stability and order, the civilians' impression of the Kingdom of Jialan began to gradually improve.

Of course, the Holy Dragon King and Augustus who were canonized again were not very happy. Their bodies were already cold, but they didn't expect Vega would not let them go and actually dragged them here to whip their corpses. How could they be happy?

This is such a huge humiliation!
But when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

After a brief appearance, they were sent back to Saint Laurent City to continue enjoying their permanent residency.

Three times five divided by two.

It only took Vega two months to completely stabilize the entire Holy Dragon Province and get it back on track.
