Chapter 413
The city of megaliths.

Of course, a big move like Veigar could not satisfy Theon's eyes and ears. After all, no one would ignore the intelligence collection work in a protracted war, so Theon got the information immediately.

Take a careful look.

Xi En, who was frowning, suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, that kid can't stand it anymore. Borrowing food from civilians is purely a bad idea to quench thirst with poison. It seems that we are not far from victory."

Within the Nine Cities, complaints abounded.

Even if Theon didn't see it with his own eyes, he can guess a general situation.

The fate of angering the civilians is self-evident. If he launches a frontal battle now, then the civilians in the Nine Cities will even assist him in taking down Vega. His chances of winning have increased by more than two or three times.

In other words.

Now it is possible to launch a frontal battle against Veigar without worrying about whether the war will be lost.

In the ensuing meeting, a group of military officers suggested the same to Theon. They also realized that the opportunity for a decisive battle had come, and launching a war now would surely win them all.

It's a pity that Sean still didn't agree.

In order not to make any mistakes, Theon still issued an order that he could not stick to. Even if this order was once again collectively opposed by everyone, and he would even continue to bear the huge pressure from the great city of Dunbu, he would never change his mind.

Not trying means not making mistakes.

With this in mind, Theon sat firmly in the city of megaliths and continued to wait for Veigar's "suicide".

However, Theon was not idle. Although he had no intention of fighting a frontal battle, he did not neglect the intelligence collection work either.

Theon not only redoubled his war airships for investigation, but also began to let war spies infiltrate nine cities. With Veigar losing the support of the people, these spies were like ducks in water, and it was impossible to be discovered with the help of civilians.

It is precisely because it takes so much effort to gather information.

Now Theon already knows that Veigar will transport all the harvested food to the city of Nera in the left rear of Gray Crow City. Now this city is being used by Veigar as a granary, which can be used by the whole army for about 4 months. food.

learned through intelligence.

Veigar's army seems to have fallen into a period of slack, and its ability to respond to war is not as good as before.

Especially for the defense work of the city of Nera, although many defenders were sent there, probably because of the recruits, the actual defense level was not too high. His war spies even found out where the food was stored underground. storehouse.

Even these top-secret information have been figured out.

Then it means that this army no longer has the fighting power it should have. Now, if he fights head-on, his odds of winning seem to have increased by [-]-[-]%. Even Theon himself can't find even a little reason for failure.

But Theon was still trying to bear it.

He tried hard to control his desire to win, and he was not moved by how Veigar's army tried to show off.

But at this moment.

The eldest prince not only issued a urging letter to Theon, but even sent a general who didn't deal with Theon very much to the City of Boulders in person to urge Theon to end the battle in the downstream area as soon as possible.Because the battle situation in the city of black gold seems to be getting more and more difficult, just in case, a large number of mobile troops are needed.

"Excuse me, Admiral Theon, why haven't you sent troops yet?"

The general was obviously prepared, and he took the information and said: "The enemy army is at the end of its force, and has even done something to search for civilians. Now it has caused anger in the Nine Cities. We will be able to win in one battle. .”

"I, Sean, have been a soldier all my life, and I don't need you to teach me how to fight this war."

The general who was angry at Theon's unceremonious words on the spot left the city of Boulders, and returned to Dunbu to add fuel to the prince. This not only caused the prince to have a crisis of trust in Theon, but also directly ordered Theon to launch an attack on Vega. attack.

If the attack is not launched within half a month.

Then Theon will be directly transferred back to Dunbu City, and the downstream battle will be taken over by others.

"Your Majesty mistaken me!"

The hands of Theon holding the letter were trembling, and the actions of the eldest prince deeply hurt Theon's heart.

He had only been away for 3 months, and he did not expect that the eldest prince would actually believe the words of others in the court, and even he himself suffered a crisis of trust, which made him, an old general who had fought for the dynasty all his life, a little sad.

And just at this moment.

A wealthy merchant from the city of Nora sent a letter to Theon.

This letter is a joint letter, and the letter complains to Theon that all their properties have been looted by Vegar, so they hope that Theon can send people to attack Vegar's army immediately, and they can even assist the West Bank army to open the city gate.

In normal times, Theon would not have dared to trust such letters.

However, after Vega did these outrageous things, the authenticity of this letter can still be believed, not to mention that these letters are joint letters. property, they will often fight with their lives.

The First Prince's order.

Letters from businessman.

The Veigar army slackened.

Plus the will of the people.

One after another, Theon finally gave the order to prepare to attack. He... really couldn't control his inner desire——

Eager to end the war, eager to return to Dunbu as a way to rebuild influence.

Therefore, after making up his mind to fight Veigar.

Theon began to formulate the most effective battle plan based on the current situation.

He is the number one wise general of the dynasty, and his battle plan is of course not like other generals, simply planning the formation, and then launching a siege to the enemy in a swarm, and then taking down the enemy's nine cities step by step.

This method can certainly win the war.

But how much will it cost in the end?
Therefore, Theon saw right through the most critical point of victory in this war - the city of Nora, the granary.

As long as the city of Nora is captured and the enemy's granary is captured, Vega's army will collapse without a fight within ten days and a half months. This city of Nora is the heart of Vega.

It seems that the problem is simple.

Now he still has a joint letter from the merchants of the city of Nora. He can cooperate with the merchants in the city of Nora secretly to launch a surprise attack on the city of Nora and win the war in one fell swoop.

Absolutely can't be wrong.

The route of grain transportation observed by the war airship, the laxity of the defenders reported by the war spies, and the almost daily protest marches of the residents in the city are all signs that this granary city is not an impenetrable fortress.

So in the evening after two days.

Sean waved his hand and issued an order to the city of Nora: "All troops, attack!"
