Chapter 315

the next day.

Just after nine o'clock, the impatient Guardian Knight Carol brought Princess Shia and knocked on the door of Vega's room. This made Vega, who was seriously deprived of sleep, only after washing himself off for a while, to cheer himself up. Meet two people.

"Your Highness, may I ask what you have to do this early in the morning?"

Veigar turned over the map calmly, and did not let the two see the circles and forks on the map.

"Little devil, let me ask you."

Carol said with anger on his face: "Yesterday you repeatedly promised to help Her Royal Highness return to the west bank of the kingdom, but why there is no movement now, please take a little action."

"Carol!"

Shia quickly apologized: "General Vega, Carol just cares too much about me, please forgive his rude behavior."

"It's okay."

Veigar waved his hand and said: "It seems that I really should take some practical actions to make Master Carol feel relieved of me."

Veigar walked up to the wall with the map of the Holy Dynasty, pointed to the current location and said, "The city of Silverpine is in the hinterland of the east, and it will take about 20 days to march to the port city on foot."

Vega pointed to the port city again: "But the port cities are heavily guarded by the Kingdom's troops. It may not be easy for us to break through head-on. Even if we can break through the enemy's defense line head-on, the ships crossing the river may be destroyed."

"What does the general mean?"

Princess Shia looked into Vega's eyes with a look of trust on her face.

Vega didn't know why Princess Shia trusted him so much, but it was a good thing rather than a bad thing, so he continued to point to the north of the dynasty and said, "So I personally suggest, go north."

"I disagree!"

Carol immediately vetoed it: "You are simply deceiving us. Wouldn't it be the opposite if you go to the north of the dynasty, and you will go further and further away. Please don't insult the IQ of me and Your Highness the Princess."

"with all due respect."

Vega chuckled: "Master Carol, although you are very powerful, you are indeed an amateur in marching and fighting. Do you know what is called roundabout combat?"

Veigar knocked on the north and said: "The kingdom is heavily guarding the port city, and the rear must be empty. With our strength, the journey north will be unimpeded. Almost no army can stop us. At that time, we will enter the empire through the north." Naturally, Her Royal Highness can return from the east of our country to the west of the dynasty safely and soundly."

"This……"

Carol was speechless. Although he wanted to say something doubtful, the whole plan was indeed perfect. After all, even he knew that the chances of the king crossing the river through the port city were not high, but if Vega's plan was followed, I can't see any danger for the time being, it's just that the distance is a bit far and the time is a bit slow.

But it doesn't matter.

In Carol's view, as long as he can bring Shia back to the west of the dynasty, the time and distance can be ignored, and Veigar's purpose is to return to the empire safely, so it can also be explained why Veigar is so full of words Promised to help Shia.

If you follow suit, it seems that anyone can do it.

"Let me just trust you once."

Carol finally chose to believe in Veigar, and of course Princess Shia couldn't see any doubts in it. A battle-tested general like Veigar deceived a guard with strong limbs and a simple mind and a 15-year-old It's not easy being a princess.

Yes, it is deception.

Veigar was indeed going north, but he had canceled plans to go all the way north.

What he was preparing for was to launch a surprise attack on the Holy City north of Saint Laurent.And when the enemy did not react, they took advantage of the situation to take Saint Laurent City, Saya City, Twilight City, and Half Moon City, forming the strongest line of defense, and encircling the Royal Army in the port city.

No air force carrying capacity and high mobility.

It will take at least one month and ten days for the main force of the Royal Army to support Saint Laurent from the port city. This more than one month is enough for Vega to take down the Saint Laurent defense circle.

That's what Veigar bet on.

Confident to the point of arrogance, the Royal Army did not deploy heavy troops to defend Saint Laurent, nor did it have highly mobile support troops.

With this solid line of defense.

In less than a year and a half, Veigar was confident that he could drive the Kingdom Army out of the eastern territory of the Holy Dynasty.

Moreover, Yves Saint Laurent is what the people want. Winning Yves Saint Laurent is equivalent to restoring the morale of the army, restoring the confidence of the people, and giving some patriots a place to seek refuge.

But Veigar can't tell Shia and Carol the plan for the time being.

It's not that they underestimated the strategic thinking of the two. With the knowledge of Carol and Shia, they might regard the whole plan as a proposition. Therefore, Vega planned to stabilize the two of them first.

Therefore, Vega continued: "Please stay calm, both of you. Let my troops rest for a day, and start marching towards the north tomorrow morning. I won't let you two wait too long."

"Trouble general."

Princess Shia smiled at Vega, and said, "Then we won't disturb General Vega's work, and please take care of him."

"As it should be."

Veigar said solemnly to Princess Shia.

After getting a satisfactory answer, the princess and Carol left Vega's room, but when they left, Carol still didn't give Vega any good looks.

Exit Veigar's room.

Princess Shia subconsciously patted her chest, and let out a long breath.

She doesn't know why her heart beats faster every time she sees Vega, she is also very nervous, and sometimes she can't even maintain proper etiquette, but she can't help but want to get close to Vega, maybe she subconsciously asks Vega for help. is based on this.

Although I can't figure it out.

But one thing Shia can be sure of is that she trusts Vega very much.

Vega, who had saved him in the alley, was the person she trusted the most besides Carol.

Although Saint Laurent XVIII once told her that the disciples of the empire were cunning by nature and could not be trusted, but Shia believed that Vega was definitely not among them, and he was absolutely trustworthy.

So on the second day.

After Veigar got enough supplies in the city of Silverpine, he started to move towards the north of the dynasty. He needed to go north and cross the Tully Mountains again to launch an attack on Saint Laurent's satellite city, Holy City.

But just as he was about to march, a message came.

In the past two days, the troops who had been investigating the city had captured an officer of the kingdom under the report of the civilians. This officer was none other than Menno, the head of the reinforced regiment.

"Excuse me, general, how will the head of the Kingdom Army deal with it?"

The adjutant Yiluo asked Vega: "After we tortured him, he didn't have any useful information on him, and it seems worthless to keep him."

"Bring him to me, and I will see him in person."

When Vega heard the news, he hurriedly prevented Yiluo from killing the leader, because the moment he heard the news, a bold idea appeared in his mind again. This leader will definitely be of great use in the next war .
