In the Holy Dynasty, December 12 is already considered the depths of winter.

Generally speaking, winter is not a season suitable for war, but the empire seems to be in a hurry to end the war on the west bank of the dynasty, so it resolutely chooses to start a war, regardless of whether it is winter or spring.

A few days later will be the day when Vega will attack first.

Vega drove the main force of 300,000 troops to the medium-sized city near the midstream, the Holy City of Ganti.

Opposite the Holy City of Ganti is the West Bank subordinate Moon City, which is also home to 300,000 main forces on the West Bank, and these two medium-sized cities have always been regarded as the dividing line between the middle and lower reaches.

With the transportation of Gunti Holy City in all directions, and two giant granaries behind it, Vega no longer needs to worry about supplies.

In contrast to that.

Moonrest City is backed by the Great City of Donbu, and also has the most adequate supply and support lines.

And since the military strength of the two armies is basically the same, this battle is bound to be a battle of equal strength.

If you have to find out the difference, it is that the quality of Vega's army is obviously inferior to the main force of the West Bank Army, but the command ability of the generals can completely make up for this shortcoming, and there is no one here on the West Bank who is an opponent of Vega at all.

Eskar of the Imperial Army understood this.

He also absolutely believed that Vega could hold back the enemy's main force, allowing him to easily drive the Imperial army straight into the city of Donbu and completely end the war on the west bank, but the real war was not so simple.

He first gave orders to the commander of the reconnaissance regiment directly under the army group.

"Major, you take a mage reconnaissance battalion downstream. ”

Eskar pointed to the location of Moonrest City and Ganti Holy City on the sand table and said, "I need you to confirm whether Brigadier General Vega is really at war with the West Bank army, and I want to get the most accurate information." ”

"Yes, Commander. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen. ”

Eskar looked at the others: "The resumption of war in the Kingdom Dragon City is imminent, and we don't have much time to delay here, and the deadline given to us by the Führer will completely destroy the regime in the West Bank before the early spring arrives." Therefore, I need you to be prepared for war in the next few days, and if nothing else, the troops will be sent to the middle of the 20th. ”

"For victory!"

The officers saluted in unison, signaling that the final battle on the West Bank was finally about to begin, and that battle would determine who was the true owner of the land.

The Imperial Army was ready to go.

All the officers also seem to be taking the war seriously.

But in fact, from the commander-in-chief Eskar to the small company commander at the bottom, no one thought that the war would be lost.

Because they have more than 500,000 troops, and because they have Vega to take care of them downstream, this kind of war can be easily won even if they are commanded with their eyes closed, and it is completely possible to overthrow the West Bank regime before the arrival of early spring.

The other side.

Vega's operational command, he also held a meeting.

Vega pointed to the sand table and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, after more than a month of recuperation, our army has basically recovered its combat effectiveness, and now that the power edifice on the west bank is about to collapse, it is time to make up for this last sword, so we are scheduled to launch a general attack on the west bank on the 15th." ”

As soon as the words fell, the first division commander stood up.

He is Vega's old subordinate, and he is also the highest commander of the Imperial Army's 15,000 people except Vega: "Commander, our army requests to be the vanguard in this battle, please approve it." ”

"Commander, I also ask to be a vanguard. ”

"The vanguard is from our 3rd Division!"

“......”

The officers in the conference room were red-faced, and Vega's invincible record made them not consider whether the war was lost or not, under the premise that the war was 100% victorious, whoever was the vanguard would naturally get the most credit.

Generally speaking.

Vega will agree to the request of the descendants at this time, because the vanguard army, as a sharp blade, must be the most elite troops to penetrate the enemy formation, and the ordinary cannon fodder troops will be directly dispersed.

But this time, Vega refused the request of the commander of the 1 division.

He pointed to the sand table and said to the commander of the 1st Division: "This time you have a more important mission, that is, when we are facing the Kingdom Army head-on, you bypass the Moon Breath Mountain Range and take the opportunity to attack their north gate from the rear. ”

"General, the subordinate doesn't understand. ”

The commander of the 1st Division said puzzledly: "Our army of 15,000 people, it is completely impossible to pass through the Moon Breath Mountain Range openly, after all, the enemy's aviation reconnaissance unit is not a vegetarian. ”

"Of course I take that into account. ”

Vega smiled: "When the time comes, I will order the air brigade to cover you, as long as you move fast enough, you can sneak into the Moon Breath Mountain Range before the enemy reconnaissance team finds you, and the specific details will be discussed by the two of you." ”

"Guaranteed to get the job done. ”

"Yes, Commander. ”

The commander of the 1st Division and the commander of the Aviation Brigade stood up at the same time and saluted Vega, but the face of the 1st Division Commander was clearly arrogant, while the face of the Aviation Brigade Commander and the other officers was slightly dissatisfied.

Some people have struggles in their places.

Vega's army was also not harmonious, and the soldiers of the Imperial Army and the Dynasty actually had irreconcilable contradictions.

As a direct subordinate unit of Vega, the Imperial Army has always considered itself superior, and does not take the soldiers of the dynasty seriously in peacetime. In addition, Vega himself was also an imperial officer, so many dynasty officers and soldiers did not dare to really deal with the imperial soldiers even if they suffered losses, but the dissatisfaction in their hearts was inevitable.

But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction.

The officers of the dynasty still understood that the overall situation was important, and they wanted to fight this war well for Vega, for Xiya, and for the dynasty, so the brigade commander of the aviation brigade found the commander of the 1st division: "Your Excellency, please wait a moment, you can see if this specific battle plan should be discussed......

"What's there to discuss?"

Contrary to the dynastic army, the imperial army is not for Xiya, not for the dynasty, they are only for Vega, so without this sense of responsibility, coupled with the pride in their bones, they will not accommodate the dynastic army: "Is there any point in discussing? As the decisive force of this war, you only need to act according to the plan formulated by the staff of our division." ”

After the 1 division commander finished speaking.

He snorted at the commander of the aviation brigade, and then left with his head held high in haughty, without giving the commander of the aviation brigade a chance to speak.

"Too much deception, too much deception!"

The commander of the aviation brigade wanted to go up to theorize after three steps and two steps, but was unfortunately stopped by several other officers: "Eliminate the anger, eliminate the anger, he is the descendant of the commander after all, it is nothing if you don't give him face, but you can't help but give the commander face." Listen to me, just put up with it. ”

"Alas!"

The commander of the aviation brigade released his clenched fists: "If only the commander could defect from the empire, I think the whole country will raise their hands to welcome the commander." ”

"I hope there will be a day. ”

Everyone sighed in unison, and then each began to prepare for battle.
