Chapter 703

The two armies confront each other.

On one side is the [-] soldiers of the Holy Dragon Kingdom stationed in Tali City.

On the other side, more than 30 Jialan troops are stationed on the side of Tali City, about 200 miles away.

Veigar's side was aggressive and clearly determined to win Tali City, but the [-] defenders in Tali City were not as uneasy and afraid as they imagined because they were ordered by Augustus to retreat at a critical moment.

Because everyone knows that if you can't beat it, you can still run.

And Veigar did not rush to attack. During the three days of landing, he just ordered the army to set up camp, and then sent scouts to scout the inside and outside of Tali City. The air force did not use it casually. After all, the enemy has more flexibility. dragon.

After three days of exploration.

Vega learned from the soldiers that Augustus approved them to retreat if they were defeated, which made Vega basically sure that the main force was not here, but within the Saint Laurent defense system.

Then things are simple.

There is no need to use conventional siege warfare in this battle. As long as you create momentum before the war and give the opponent an invincible stance when the war starts, the enemy will retreat immediately, and he will be able to take the Tali city.

When retreating does not violate orders.

Then no one will choose to fight hard when they know that they may lose the battle.

Death in this way will not only not be honored, but also shamed.

Veigar was going to take advantage of the enemy's mentality to make a fuss and fight without bloodshed. For Veigar, who was short of troops, every division was a very precious existence, and it should not be wasted here.

Then the problem is coming.

How to scare away the opponent and force the opponent to withdraw from Tully City?
This is not difficult for Veigar.

He turned his gaze to Sia Saint Laurent who was on the side.

With this enhanced star mage who is proficient in two magics, it is a breeze to forcefully break through the defense line of a medium-sized city, which is enough to give the enemy a blow.

Under this premise, the enemy can only move into the city to fight.

Because relying on the city to carry out street fighting, it is difficult for star magicians to use magic. A large area of ​​magic will kill the enemy while destroying houses and injuring their own people or civilians.

So the real difficulty is how to make the enemy retreat in the follow-up war.

At this time, pre-war momentum is needed.

Therefore, Vega took his soldiers to Tali City to show off his power that day.

Da da da--

The horses trampled the ground.

This is a team of about ten mages, consisting of eight shadow mages and two elemental mages.

Veigar was at the forefront, leading such a small team on the national road towards Tali City. He did not hide his tracks and figure, so the enemy scouts saw him, but Veigar seemed I don't care about these.

He is very fast.

The speed of the scouts couldn't even keep up with him, so after the race, Veigar actually rushed to the main gate of Tully City ahead of the scouts, and ordered two mid-level fire mages to start casting spells.

boom boom-

As the two elemental mages chanted, a large fireball released by the two mages slammed into the city gate in a straight line. Since Veigar came too suddenly, without anyone stopping him, the fireball The large fireball smashed open the city gate and made a loud noise, which even reached the military camp not far from the main gate.

"what sound?"

The commander of the Vanguard is Palitzer Gurney, the head of the Silver Dragonflight.

He was thinking about how to force out Vega's divine mage next, and when he should retreat in accordance with Augustus's order, his expression changed when he was frightened by this loud voice.

"Soldiers! Soldiers!"

As he shouted loudly, the soldiers at the city gate also rushed here.

"Enemy, enemy attack! Commander, the enemy has already breached the city gate!"

The soldier said anxiously, and Palitser was taken aback by the news.

He said angrily: "Why didn't I receive the information in advance, what do the scouting troops do?"

Generally speaking, large troops march slowly, while small reconnaissance troops tend to move very fast.In most cases, even if the enemy intends to sneak attack, once the large army is about to approach the station, the scouts will send the information to him in advance, so that he can use this time to temporarily organize a counterattack force, or establish a simple line of defense.

But today was too sudden.

It was obviously a serious siege battle, and even the city gate was destroyed, so he realized it later.

When did the army of the Jialan Empire gain such speed?

"Immediately order the defenders to abandon the city gates. It is no longer possible to defend there. Let's turn to urban warfare."

After a pause, Palitzer said: "If the situation is already in jeopardy, we should abandon Tali City in advance, and the whole army will join forces with the main force in the direction of Saya City, and we will directly enter the second step of the plan."

"That, Commander."

The soldier said rather embarrassingly: "Things may not be as bad as imagined, the number of enemies is only 11..."

"How many?"

"Eleven, eleven..."

"Are you fooling me?"

"Please forgive me, Commander, I dare not lie to you in this humble position."

"Clarify it to me."

Under Palitzer's order, the soldier explained clearly what happened before and after.

"Vega Saint Laurent leads a mage team alone?"

Palitzer frowned and said: "It's no wonder I didn't receive any intelligence from the reconnaissance troops. If there were only eleven people, the soldiers of the reconnaissance troops really couldn't keep up with the footsteps of this team, but eleven people can come here." Why? Don’t eleven people still want to take this city? What kind of tricks is that damn kid playing again.”

With a very suspicious mind.

Palitzer finally went out. There were only 11 people. He didn't have to worry about his safety: "Go to the tower, I want to see what he wants to do."

On the city tower, the banner of the holy dragon fluttered in the wind.

Just when Palitzer approached the tower, he saw that the city gate was torn apart, and the lights on it had not been extinguished. The loud noise just now turned out to be the enemy mage releasing magic on the tower.

Not too much attention was paid to the broken city gate.

Palitzer walked up the tower, walked to the middle position, and looked straight ahead.

What came into view was eleven war horses lined up in two rows.

There are a total of ten war horses in the back row, and there are magicians wearing black cloaks sitting on them. Two of them are holding staffs, and the rest are equipped with short swords in their hands.

And so on.

There was only one of the strongest war horses in the first row, which obviously belonged to Vega Saint Laurent.

But the war horse was empty, and there was no sign of Vega Saint Laurent.

Where is Veigar?
Palitzer Gurney's heart skipped a beat for no reason.

He turned his head with difficulty, and at some point, there was a figure beside him.
