Chapter 345 Staff
Tosh is the staff officer of the Veigar Brigade.

Before joining this brigade, Veigar used to be his belief, and he had always regarded him as the most worthy leader to follow.

Until he was transferred to the independent brigade 'victory' through various means.

He finally discovered that reality and fantasy are completely different.

First of all.

Veigar would never take the initiative to ask for the opinions of the staff group, which made him, a well-known staff member who wanted to show off, useless. He even felt that he was not as good as that lieutenant Yiluo.

second.

Even if he took the initiative to speak, Veigar never listened to the advice of his staff.

Regardless of the previous battles, or the recent battle between Saint-Luminosity City and Saint-Laurent City, even if he listed dozens of evidences to prove that attacking Saint-Glory City and Saint-Laurent City is absolutely impossible to win, in the end Vega still insisted on going his own way.

But isn't the end result a victory?
There is nothing to be dissatisfied with, the facts have proved his point of view to be wrong.

Perhaps this is the case from what has happened, but as a professional staff officer, Tosh is not a short-sighted civilian.Although the victory in the end was indeed beyond his expectations, but ah, what's the use of capturing Saint Laurent and Holy City?There is nothing to do but dig a hole and bury yourself.

Veigar is looking for his own death, Tosh is absolutely sure of this.

And because Dandry, the brigade commander of the independent brigade "Victory", was directly killed by Vega, Tosh felt that he was the second in command of this army, and he had an obligation and must be responsible for the lives of the soldiers.

therefore.

At the meeting, when he heard that Vega was going to search for Shia, handed over the big and small affairs to the adjutant Ilo, and arranged for Menno's navy to control public opinion, he knew that the opportunity to return to the country had come.

Two days after Veigar left, Tosh started his plan.

As a professional staff officer, the ability to formulate and execute plans is naturally needless to say, and because he is the chief staff officer in the army, he can usually get in touch with the core of the army, so it is not too easy to copy the operation method of the navy .

Buying sailors, spreading rumors...it should be called the truth!

A set of combo punches.

As a result, Menno was caught off guard and lost the opportunity of public opinion.

At this time, it was too late for him to order the navy to control public opinion, and in the end, Tosh led the army instead.

With the kingdom's attack, Tosh's plans come to an end.

Now the whole city is panicked. If the civilians dare to throw stones at the imperial soldiers today, the angry populace and the army of new recruits will shoot at the imperial soldiers in a few days. At that time, the truth about Veigar's absence from the city will be revealed.

In the case of intensified internal conflicts and the crazy attack of the Royal Army outside.

At that time, he only needs to let the navy take the lead, and the soldiers will support him on the command platform, and then he can directly order the whole army to break through and retreat, and use this army to go north and return to the empire safely.

As for Vega's life and death?
Tosh didn't care about an officer who didn't take his staff seriously. It was just his idol, an officer without vision.

No matter how powerful such an officer is in combat, it is not worth following.

He picked up the plan and threw it into the fire. Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, his plan will be completed. He, Tosh, will surely become the savior of this army. He wants to let Vega know the fate of offending the staff.

But on the second day.

Originally calm, Tosh, who was sitting on the Diaoyutai, received a message.

The wind of public opinion changed. Overnight, civilians and recruits of the dynasty believed in the news that Princess Xi Ya was still in the palace, and more people signed up to join the army, vowing to defend the city of Saint Laurent.

In addition to the dynasty, it was also the soldiers of the empire who had changed attitudes.

Early in the morning, there were rumors in the army that General Vega had broken through the ranks, but he retreated again to think about the strategy of defeating the enemy. He said that he would use 2 people to swallow the kingdom's [-]th army, and let the kingdom know what is real war.

"What a joke!"

Tosh's lungs were about to explode.

Is there a possibility of winning 2 against 20?Some people actually believe this kind of nonsense?
No, now is not the time to worry about this.

Tosh was the real insider, wouldn't he know if Vega and the princess were in the city?Who the hell is talking nonsense? Could it be that damn kingdom traitor Menno again?
"Sooner or later, I will cut off the head of the traitor of this kingdom with my own hands."

Anger did not swallow Tosh's rationality, and he was very puzzled. For more than a month, Menno had been eaten to death by him. Now, how could he change the entire city of Saint Laurent overnight? The trend of public opinion?

"Soldier, tell me."

Tosh casually asked a passing imperial soldier, "Who told you that General Vega is still in Saint Laurent?"

"Huh? Doesn't the Chief of Staff know?"

The soldier looked at the staff officer Tosh suspiciously and said: "The regiment leader announced that General Veigar left the customs last night, and all the officers were invited to the dinner, and then General Vega retreated again to think about countermeasures. This is what the regiment leader said. Absolutely not fake."

I groaned in my heart.

Tosh's face was livid with fright, and he couldn't help muttering to himself: "Could it be that Vega has returned?"

With a feeling of fear, he went to the military headquarters to find out the situation, but he also found that a large number of senior military officers did not know what was going on like him.Even if asked, the adjutant Yi Luo only told him not to deny the matter in public, and those who violated the military law would be dealt with.

Veigar hasn't returned yet.

From Yiluo's words, Tosh understood the key in an instant, and even thought of the whole operation process.

On the way back, he asked a few commoners in succession, and the answers were all that the princess is still at Saint Laurent, Mr. xxx is of high moral character and integrity, can what Mr. xxx said be false?

Back in the officer's quarters, Tosh patted his thigh angrily.

Why didn't he think of using the identities of these celebrities, sages and senior military officers to make a fuss. This top-down method of controlling public opinion is much more efficient than his bottom-down method.

"This Mennonite still has two brushes."

"No, this must have been arranged by Veigar before he left."

"Perhaps, he had expected the situation to deteriorate to such an extent, and deliberately kept back."

"In some respects, I am indeed inferior."

After laughing at himself, Tosh said confidently: "It's a pity that you never expected a consultant like me to interfere with public opinion, no matter how powerful your methods are, a fake is a fake after all, and it can't be true. "

Tosh had figured it out.

As an imitator, he is doomed to be unable to surpass the forerunner in the operation of public opinion. He is doomed to be unable to keep up with the rhythm of the forerunner if he is only a copycat without an innovative operation mode, but he also holds a decisive chess piece in his hand that reverses the direction of the wind——

His staff status.

Once he, as a core officer, stood up and declared that Vega and Shia were no longer in the city, then the public opinion arranged by Menno would definitely be destroyed, because in this matter, there is no more authoritative existence in Saint Laurent than him.

He didn't intend to use this pawn at first.

Once used, it means that he has blatantly reversed, and Menno and Yiluo will guess that he is the mastermind behind this incident.

If Veigar was in the city, he might be dead without a whole body.

But as long as Vega is not around, he can rest assured.

After all, he is the real second-in-command of the army. An adjutant and a traitor to the kingdom will not affect his control of the army at all.

Tosh tidied up his military uniform and walked towards the Royal Plaza Saint Laurent. He wanted to make this matter public and thoroughly intensify the conflicts between the dynasty civilians, recruits and imperial soldiers.

thus.

He was able to take control of the military the next day under the expectations of everyone, and he gave the order to retreat logically.

Tosh raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky, and slowly said: "I wanted to play the role of a loyal minister, and I didn't want to get a bad name of betraying the commander, but in order to send the soldiers back to the empire safely, and to return alive, I must not will back down."

"I'm right."

Tosh clenched his fists: "Stick to Saint Laurent and try to defeat the 20 Royal Army in vain. This is simply a joke with everyone's life. Breaking through the siege and going north is the most correct choice now."
