Chapter 663
The holy dynasty, the palace hall of discussion.

Xi Yagao sat on the throne, and the courtiers below looked up at her with reverence.

Now Shia is their king, no longer a puppet king, but a real king.

The Sacred Dragon City's retreat battle had brought Shia's already incomparably high prestige to its peak, and it also made most of the subjects gradually forget about Vega's existence.

People take tea to cool off.

This sentence is not just talking.

When officials and subjects gradually realize that without Veigar, the dynasty can maintain its current height, then even if Veigar returns one day, it will only become a dispensable existence, a person without any rights, even inferior to senior officials' His Royal Highness'.

But there is another possibility.

That is, Shia can't protect the entire holy dynasty. When the entire dynasty is facing disaster, people will recall the glory and beauty of the past, and Veigar's reputation will rise instead of falling.

So the next war became the key.

Okasos also reported the latest situation to Shia at this time: "Your Majesty, according to the latest information, Qilisi and Tanier of the Jialan Empire abandoned the cities of Kareni and Gacili, and at the same time turned to attack Baya The Principality. And the Empire and the Holy Dragon Kingdom, which regained the cities of Kalieni and Gacili, have crossed the border and launched an attack on our city of ice and fire."

"This time, the Holy Dragon Kingdom and the Empire are coming in menacing ways."

"If it is not handled well, there may even be a catastrophe."

"The question now is who will defend the city of ice and fire."

Everyone whispered a word and began to discuss in a low voice. Although the Empire and the Holy Dragon Kingdom did not publicize their alliance, any fool could see that they were fighting together. The troops sent by the two countries had exceeded 140 million.

This 140 million is not the kind of motley army that the principality coalition army had back then.

Whether it is the empire or the Holy Dragon Kingdom, they are all famous for the overall quality of their troops. If they want to take a frontal battle, the quantity and quality of their troops are not as good as those of the two countries, and defeat is a sure thing.

How to be good?
They are used to having Vega make decisions, and the system they implement is of course impossible to give good advice, so they turned their attention to Shia, looking forward to Shia's next decision.

But in fact, Shia didn't know what to do at all.

Her combat experience is really too little, and the last time she was able to make the whole army retreat, it doesn't mean that she can do it every time.

"Master Okasos, do you have any other information?"

Although she didn't have any clues, she at least knew that war required knowing oneself and the enemy. Only by having as much information as possible could one formulate the most reasonable and effective combat plan.

"There's another bad news."

Okasos took a moment and said: "This time we may only rely on the remaining 70 main forces on the east bank to resist the enemy. Although Yiluo, who is in charge of the war on the west bank, has not rebelled on the surface, he no longer listens to us. order."

wow-

There was an uproar in the hall.

A minister was filled with righteous indignation: "This is blatant treason! Such traitors must be severely punished."

"Yi Luo and Men Nuo are of foreign origin after all, and I have known for a long time that they are unreliable."

"At the beginning, His Royal Highness trusted them so much, but he didn't expect..."

"..."

The fact that Yiluo and Menno took away almost all the troops and half of the resources on the east bank was quite unacceptable to everyone. They couldn't understand why they had to betray the dynasty at this juncture. If the east bank was lost, how could the west bank survive alone? ?
Of course anger is anger.

These ministers did not propose any suggestion to send troops to conquer, because everyone knows that the current enemies are the Empire and the Holy Dragon Kingdom from afar. If these two countries cannot be repelled, what is the use of taking back the West Bank?

"What advice does Lord Okasos have?"

Shia looked at Okasos. As a king, she understood that the person she could rely on most now was still Okasos.

After all, Okasos is a star mage, and the role of a star mage in war is self-evident.

"May I ask what aspect of your Majesty's suggestion?"

Okasos made a fool of himself, but his face changed from the decadence and gloom of the past few days, and became quite confident.

This wave of self-confidence came from the inside out, not only Shia, but also other officials were keenly aware of the change in Okasos' psychology. Could it be that Okasos really has a good strategy to retreat this time?

Shia didn't mind Ocasos' tricks, she followed Ocasos's words and asked, "My lord, do you have any suggestions on how to defend the city of ice and fire?"

Everyone looked at Okasos with expectant eyes.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that Ocasos said something that everyone couldn't understand: "As for the city of ice and fire and the whole north, I want to ask your majesty to give up after a little resistance."

"what?!"

A group of officials accused Ocasos and said: "Lord Ocasos, now we doubt your loyalty to Her Majesty the Queen and the Holy Dynasty. It is unreasonable to hand over the entire north!"

"That's right, even if I live and die with the city of ice and fire, I will never take a step back."

"Your Majesty, please let the officials lead the troops to guard the city of ice and fire."

It's no wonder these people feel so angry. Without the West Bank, once the entire north is lost, they will only have a Saint Laurent defense system and a Saint Laurent city left. Once they are defeated again, they will be defeated. The country is destroyed.

But it was at this time.

Shia sharply pointed out Ocasos' real purpose: "Master Ocasos, do you want to lure the enemy to go deep, make the enemy let down their vigilance, and then fight the enemy outside the city of Saint Laurent to determine the outcome?"

"Your Majesty is wise."

Shia heard the words and asked: "May I ask what is the strength of your lord? Even if you lure the enemy into deep, let the enemy become proud and conceited, and fight a decisive battle with them by surprise, but in the case of a huge difference in strength, surprise will not work at all." to the effect."

As Shia said.

No matter how underestimated the enemy is, no matter how successful their unexpected battle plan is, when the strength difference between the two sides is too large, the enemy is not afraid of your sneak attack at all, and they have the ability to fight backhand at any time.

"Of course the officer understands that."

Okasos said with a smile: "But I think neither the Empire nor the Holy Dragon Kingdom would have expected that I have advanced from a star mage to a holy mage!"

Whoa!

One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and the entire court exploded.

Holy mage, even in the ancient times, it is the cutting-edge force in war, not to mention in this era, a star mage is enough to make the nations fear, if a holy mage...

"Lord Ocasus, are you sure?" Shia had a hopeful look on her face.

Okasos said confidently: "Next, please look forward to my performance, Your Majesty."
