Chapter 391
Ed City.

After the three of Tanier left, Vega carefully kept the free gift agreement.

With this agreement, it means that he can pull up two standard armies within two years, which is too critical for Veigar now. All his armies now add up to only 10 war airships.

These 10 ships are still the war airships of Vega headquarters.

After so many wars, Veigar has been reluctant to use it, and has kept the last 10 airships until today.

Of course, Veigar wasn't worried about the kingdom's default.

This kind of agreement is reasonable and legal. If the kingdom reneges on its debts, Veigar can openly attack the United Kingdom, and even invite other countries to invade the United Kingdom.

That's why.

The kingdom will definitely not blatantly tear up the agreement for these 200 airships, and give Vega an excuse to attack their territory openly. At that time, no matter whether they win or lose, the losses will not be as simple as 200 war airships.

And a country that reneges on its debts will have problems with its credibility.

In the future, when it comes time to really negotiate, other countries are likely to directly reject the kingdom's invitation to negotiate on this ground.

Therefore, as long as this agreement is in hand, as long as the United Kingdom does not prevent the empire from being destroyed, Veigar can get the war airships he urgently needs in batches within two years, and his heart problem of not having air defense forces will be solved.

After collecting the agreement.

Vega immediately ordered the whole army to move out and leave Ed City immediately.

After opening the city gate, Veigar's troops left Ed City directly, and it took less than half an hour before and after. It is estimated that no one would have thought that he could be so fast.

How can it be so fast?
Veigar has always been tight-fisted when it comes to war sensibilities.

Although he felt that the kingdom's army would not attack him suddenly after signing the agreement, after all, the kingdom's top priority is to solve the crisis in Dragon City, rather than continue to fight with his "friendly army", which is a little rational for Tanier should know.

But for the sake of conservatism, Veigar played it safe.

He ordered to prepare for the retreat in advance yesterday, which also directly saved several hours of time for the troops to assemble and organize, instead of waiting until 14:00 in the afternoon to retreat.

When Tanier walked out of Ed City with his front foot, he also left Ed City directly with his back foot.

The two left in opposite directions, leaving only an empty city.

Therefore, at 14:00 that afternoon, when Tanier arrived at Ed City with his troops, he did not find any trace of Veigar, leaving only a dead city.

"Could it be...it was seen through again!"

He seized the time, not daring to be too early, for fear that Veigar hadn't lost his vigilance and hadn't withdrawn the fortifications.

He didn't dare to be too late, if it was too late, it was very likely that Vega would slip away directly.

So he pinched it at 14:00, which was the time when Veigar finished sorting out the troops and withdrew from the city. The entire error was precisely planned, and it would not exceed half an hour, but Veigar still slipped ahead of time.

At this moment, Tanier had no choice but to be convinced.

For planning without motive is the most difficult to predict.

His primary enemy now is the Empire rather than Veigar, even Veigar is still his ally for the time being, but even in this situation without the slightest motive, Veigar still predicted in advance that he would turn his face and deny anyone. Tanier couldn't help but admire him.

Because of empathy.

Even he doesn't think that he will continue to fight Vega at this juncture. This is like in LOL, the base is about to be demolished, but you are still single-handedly fighting a river crab.

But he did it anyway.

I thought that the crazy way of breaking through the boundaries of thinking could destroy Veigar, or at least let him suffer a loss last time, drawing a fairly complete end to his dynasty trip.

But still miscalculated.

Even such a wild and unconstrained idea failed to hide from Vega's eyes, so he still had nothing to say.The matter of which military talent is higher or lower has been clearly placed in front of him.

And he realized it too.

What I should do now is to rush back to the kingdom to save the field, instead of wasting time on some irrelevant things.

----

the other side.

A few hours after Veigar retreated, he learned from the scouts in the rear that the Kingdom did not pass through Ed City at 18:00 as agreed, but rushed into the city at 14:00.

This news directly frightened Veigar into a cold sweat.

If he hadn't made such a steady move yesterday, ordered the entire army to prepare for retreat in advance, and waited until the negotiations were over before gathering troops and making a retreat plan, wouldn't it be 14:00?
After leaving the city, everything will be exposed.

When the kingdom saw him holding 2 soldiers pretending to be big-tailed wolves, Veigar had already envisioned the terrifying scene where he would be turned into a sky lantern by hundreds or thousands of flame explosions.

It is no exaggeration to say that life and death are on the line.

Everything was just as Tanier had imagined, and Vega did not expect that the Royal Army would fight back.

After all, Veigar is not an all-knowing and omnipotent god.

For this kind of attack plan without the slightest motive and no trace, even if you borrow a few hundred of his heads, it is absolutely impossible to understand that Tenniel would issue such an irrational order.

He is not an enemy at this juncture.

He is precisely the ally who helped the kingdom's 40 troops return to the country, repelled the imperial army, and could contain the imperial military after the war, so that the empire would not dare to continue to attack the kingdom with all its strength.

Launching a war against him at this time will do no harm at all.

If Veigar were to die, Tanner would face the full force of the dynasty and the empire to stop him. With such a force of resistance, even a 40 army would not be able to easily step back to the country.

And everyone is an insider.

The age is not too young.

It should also be understood that there are no absolute enemies and allies between countries. As long as there are interests, allies can turn against each other, and enemies can shake hands and make peace.

But Tenniel did something that a child would do.

This made Vega instinctively look down on Tanier's magnanimity. A commander who doesn't understand the overall situation and can't distinguish priorities, no matter how outstanding his commanding skills are, sooner or later his shortcomings will be exposed.

But there are pros and cons to everything.

Through Tanier's return of the carbine this time, Vega realized an important thing——

It's easy to fool a genius, hard to see through a fool, and impossible to fool a pig.

The former always maintains reason and responds to everything with optimal decision-making. The latter’s thinking is unpredictable and his way of doing things is untraceable. You can never guarantee what he will do in the next second to harm others and himself. As for the last Well--

Irrational, unreasonable, reckless, short-sighted, insensitive, stubborn...

And Tennier is exactly in between these three.

His current impression of Veigar is that he is sometimes a genius, sometimes an idiot, and sometimes... like a pig.
