Chapter 428
Gray Crow City.

This is the closest city to the city of megaliths, and it is also the city where Veigar once led his army to face Theon.

Things are turning now.

This small city is now occupied by the West Bank troops led by Aiden, and they are also caught in the huge predicament that Veigar once faced-lack of food.

Downstream wealth belongs to wealth.

But the really rich place is the plain area behind the city of megaliths, not the hilly and mountainous area where the Nine Crow City is located.Therefore, after Veigar repelled Ferre Garry's army and learned that Aiden counterattacked Gray Crow City and occupied Gray Crow Nine City, he did not rush to lead his troops to kill them all.

he is waiting...

Wait for Aiden to run out of ammunition and food, and then break through.

This scene made Veigar, who stood on the tower of the City of Boulders and looked towards the direction of Gray Crow City, lamented that it was a trick. Even he had never foreseen that a few months later, he would switch positions with the enemy.

In the way of the other, return the other body.

Back then, when the army on the west bank was holding on to the boulder, Veigar had no choice but to take the risk and give it a go.

It can be seen from this that it is impossible to hold on to how deadly it is to the enemy.

When Veigar adopted the same strategy, Aiden, who was staying in Gray Crow City, was already holding his head in pain and didn't know what to do, especially when all the officers in the meeting room were noisy, which made him even more confused.

learn from mistakes.

You won't grow up when no one makes you suffer.

Aiden has been living under the wings of Ferrell Garry, and even the promotion to general was taken by Ferrie Garry from other officers, so he has no command experience at all.

But experienced a failure this time.

It was only then that Aiden truly realized how good his uncle was, and at the same time, he also understood that he had no one to rely on now, only himself.If you don't want to get out of the predicament, then you can only die here.

"How many soldiers and supplies do we have now?"

Aiden's words silenced the conference room, everyone looked at each other, and then a staff officer stood up and said: "In this battle, we lost 3 soldiers, 7 were missing, and there are still 15 soldiers, most of whom are reserve soldiers. "

"but……"

The staff officer paused for a moment, and then said with embarrassment: "But because you ordered a decisive battle with the enemy, each soldier only carried 7 days' worth of marching rations. If there are no new supplies before tomorrow evening, We're afraid..."

The staff officer kept his mouth shut.

Aiden opened his mouth, and subconsciously wanted to say, can't 15 people conquer the city of megaliths?
But at this moment, he calmed down again, and forced himself to recall every scene of being teased by Veigar. This huge sense of humiliation and fear finally made him let go of his ego.

Also at this time.

Aiden said something unexpected for everyone: "May I ask everyone, how did the enemy army spend with our army until today when they were short of food?"

"General, you mean..."

A group of officers suddenly looked at Aiden with admiration. Is this still the second generation ancestor who had no opinion and was blindly arrogant?

"Send orders to search for civilians!"

Aiden gave the cruel order without hesitation. At the beginning, Veigar only took half of the food for the civilians in Gray Crow Nine City, but now Aiden wants to take the other half of the food. Now it is winter again, this is to make the civilians starve die.

"Wait, general."

The staff officer quickly stopped and said: "Although this move can indeed solve the urgent need, we will not only lose the people's support if we take away all the food of the civilians, but I am afraid that when they can't hold on, they will spontaneously organize to resist us. "

"If we leave here, where will they go to resist us?" Aiden's thinking seemed to become very clear.

But this time it was the officer's turn to be puzzled.

They expressed their own doubts: "Forgive me for my stupidity. I would like to ask the general, there are huge stones blocking the road in front of us, and the Dunbu natural moat behind us. Where can we escape?"

"Build a boat and cross the east bank of the river!"

Aiden was succinct and succinct, as if he had changed completely: "If you want to go back to the middle and upper reaches of the Dunbu River, you may be intercepted by the Air Force of the City of Boulders, but we will go to the east bank secretly, and the enemy will definitely be unpredictable. The mess of Ninetowns can actually disgust that damned brat."

"General wise!"

The crowd shouted excitedly, they had never looked at the east bank, which made them sigh that maybe this is the difference between senior generals and ordinary officers, the former has a comprehensive view, while the latter is short-sighted.

It is no exaggeration to say that this decision is perfect and impeccable.

Crossing the east bank of the river not only solved their current predicament, it might also be able to force Vega to retreat. After all, everyone knew that the main force on the east bank was in the hands of Vega.Saint Laurent is extremely empty now, and their 15 troops are approaching the city. How dare Vejaan not retreat?

The meeting is over, and everyone executes the order.

When Aiden was the only one left in the conference room, he stood up quietly, but his legs, which had been trembling due to nervousness since the beginning of the meeting, gave way, causing Aiden to fall directly to the ground.

But at the very moment, he grabbed the edge of the table and stood up abruptly.

"Hahaha!"

Huge laughter echoed in the meeting room, until tears came out of the laughter, and Aiden said leisurely: "Human, after all, I have to grow up, and I don't want to be what I used to be anymore."

----

A few days later, the city of megaliths.

When Veigar learned that Aiden was plundering the food of the civilians as supplies, and at the same time ordered the manufacture of merchant ships and robbing the fishing boats of the civilians to sneak across the Donbu River and flee to the east bank, he couldn't believe his ears.

This decision is simply to die and survive.

Although fleeing to the east bank will also be chased and intercepted, it doesn't seem to be a big deal compared to the current predicament.And if you run away, run away, and leave him a lot of mess. After all, the downstream is his territory now, and he has to clean up if he doesn't clean up.

But, is this really what the useless second generation ancestor did?

This has nothing in common with the Aiden Gary in Vega's impression. After all, even he himself can't help applauding this decision. He really doesn't believe that Aiden can come up with such a plan.

But the fact was in front of him, and Veigar had to believe it.

Gently putting down the battle report, Veigar sighed and said, "Perhaps letting him live outside Boulder City was the worst step I made in this round. I only hope that my worries were unfounded."

"Send the order down."

Vega let go of his thoughts and took remedial measures: "You rushed to Saint Laurent overnight, and reported the news that the west bank troops fled to the east bank to Yiluo, and asked him to gather the army and clean up the enemy army."

"Yes, General."

"chief of staff."

"arrive."

Wei Jia told the chief of staff: "Go to open a warehouse to release grain and help Jiucheng. Remember to ask them to take out the IOU I left behind and give them twice the grain. It is said that it will be returned with interest. Their."

"Yes, General."

The chief of staff glanced at Veigar in admiration. He didn't expect that Veigar had foreseen the current victory and laid such a deep foreshadowing when he searched for food.

This act of paying back all the capital with interest not only won the hearts of the people again, but also gained a reputation for being honest and trustworthy.After all, now that Nine Cities have been looted completely, Veigar's move is a timely help.
