Chapter 691: Race

Victory!

Destroyed 30,000 enemies, captured 50,000, and almost completely annihilated the enemy's air force.

This is the result of this sneak attack on Vega.

According to preliminary estimates, the Imperial Army is estimated to have lost about 150,000 troops of an army group this time, because excluding the number of kills and prisoners, the number of people who scattered and fled during this period was not a few.

So it's really a big win.

This battle can almost be described as 'no cost and ten thousand profits'.

But Vega doesn't seem to be too happy with this.

The reason is simple, he only broke through two lines of defense, and generally the enemy has time to fight a backhand, and no commander will abandon 150,000 soldiers, Vega has also prepared a series of follow-up plans to deal with the enemy's backhand.

In Vega's plans.

He wanted to completely defeat the 500,000 troops here, so that he could effortlessly take the entire eastern region and cooperate with the rebels to advance into the Empire's Immortal City before the Empire's support arrived.

But Haussmann's took the decision of a strong man to break his wrist.

The sacrifice of 150,000 men made a very important retreat for the main forces.

"Could it be that I underestimated the politician who was delayed by the general?"

Vega looked into the distance and muttered to himself, as Hausman's former subordinate, Vega still knew this general very well.

He likes the way of checks and balances and scheming, and subordinates the entire Seventh Army, so that power is highly concentrated in his own hands, and he does not look like a general at all, but a scheming politician.

"No, that's really his style. ”

Vega immediately denied himself: "According to the character of a politician like Hausman, it is completely a lord who can give up 150,000 soldiers for his own interests and lives. ”

"But none of that matters. ”

Vega grinned, "Do you think that sacrificing 150,000 soldiers will allow you to return safely to the city of Elkia? If I really want you to return to the city of Elkia, how can I create a great sense of crisis for the Empire? ”

"Soldiers. ”

Vega said to the soldiers on the side: "Give the order to the Aviation Legion at once, let them bite the enemy's main force for me, and force them into the Faka Gorge or the extension of the Elkia Mountains, and I will compare with Hausman to see who can reach the city of Elkia faster." ”

Vega's smile was as bright as the stars.

The enemy's air force was almost completely wiped out, and now he had air supremacy and occupied the absolute initiative in the war.

That is to say, the national highway in the entire eastern region already belongs to him, and if Hausman dares to take the national highway back to Ellkia, he will definitely suffer a thunderous blow from the air force.

National highways cannot be taken.

Then you can only march towards the forest or canyon terrain where you can avoid the air force, so the speed is more than three times slower, and Vega, even if it is slow, has a national road to occupy Elkia first.

As long as Ellkia is captured, Haussmann will become a turtle in an urn.

Don't forget that Vega had previously instructed Thea to sit on the West Bank, and received her assurances that she would never let the eastern army of the Empire set foot on the West Bank.

This set of plans is Vega's backhand.

If he fails to defeat the enemy directly in a sneak attack, then he will have such an unfair race with the enemy.

The soldiers immediately conveyed the order to the Air Force.

So the whole three aviation regiments pursued in the direction of the enemy's retreat, and because of the speed of the air force, it was not enough to catch the tail of the Imperial army in less than a few hours.

Imperial Army.

The scout was frightened when he saw the darkness in the sky, and he immediately reported the news to Hausman: "Commander, the enemy's air force is coming, what should we do?"

"What should come is always coming. ”

"That little ghost really doesn't have a chance at all. ”

Haussman's gaze was clear and sharp, like a sword that had faded from the dust: "The whole army has turned around and is heading in the direction of the extension of the Ellkia Mountains, and we need to use the forest to hide our tracks and prevent the air force from attacking. ”

"Commander, is this really going to work?"

The staff officer's face turned pale: "If you want to detour through the Ellkia Mountains to the Faka Gorge, and then return to Ellkia City from there, I'm afraid it will take at least half a month, and Ellkia City will probably have fallen into the hands of the enemy by then." ”

"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, do we have any other options?"

Hausman motioned for the chief of staff to look behind him.

Boom Boom Boom –

This glance almost didn't scare the chief of staff, because the air raid had arrived, and they were on the national highway, and they were completely live targets without shelter, and if they could survive the first, second, and third rounds, it didn't mean that they could survive to the city of Elcia.

"Please clarify one thing, Your Excellency. ”

Haussman ordered a reversal of direction and said to the staff officer: "Vega Saint Laurent has not given me a chance to choose, he has exposed his intentions to us, this is a real conspiracy and not a conspiracy, he just wants to play an unfair race with us, and we who have lost air supremacy can only be forced into a detour by him." ”

"Despicable!"

The staff officer gritted his teeth and cursed Vega as he kept up with Hausman.

"Please stop praising your enemies. ”

Hausman said blandly: "For generals, mean, cunning, insidious, cruel, and ruthless...... It's always a positive rather than a derogatory, and if Vega Saint Laurent heard you call him despicable, he would probably be happy from the bottom of his heart. ”

"Yes, Commander. ”

The staff officer said with some unwillingness: "May I ask the commander, what should we do next? Could it be that we will be led by the enemy by the nose like this? The subordinate officer is really a little unwilling, and if we fall into the enemy's rhythm of war like this, we will not be far from defeat, and I ask the commander to take countermeasures as soon as possible." ”

"Who do you think Vega Saint Laurent is?"

Haussman's tone was still tepid: "Vega Saint Laurent is known as the number one player. What's really scary about him is his control over the pace of war, if you go east, you can't go west, if you take a detour, you can't cut corners. ”

Haussman's tone began to carry a hint of admiration.

He said with emotion: "Vega Saint Laurent's rhythm of war, even Foster Nolan can't break free. ”

"That'...... We're just going to have to sit back and wait?"

The staff officer's eyes lost their sparkle, and the death sentence was pronounced at the beginning of the war, which was somewhat unacceptable to him.

"No, who said to sit still?"

Hausman's tone reverted to flatness: "Just because Foster Nolan can't win the war doesn't mean I can't win either, since that little imp wants to play a race, I'll compete with him to see who is faster." ”
