Chapter 556: Inside Out
When you look ahead.
That means you're ignoring the dangers behind it.
The attention of the city of Lops was completely drawn to Vega, and Foster's eyes were firmly on the north of the empire, and he did not hesitate to destroy all ties to the north to keep the city of Lops, which in itself was not wrong.
In light of this.
The city of Ropps seems to have become a real city that never falls, because if you don't touch it, you won't do any harm.
But this is really nothing more than a self-deception.
It's like simply unplugging the computer's network cable in order to prevent hackers from stealing data, and arrogantly believing that even the world's top hackers can't afford to cook without rice.
This is not the case.
The party probably ignored that sentence -
The most secure fortresses are the easiest to break through from within.
When he thinks that he has made the best means of defense, he often takes it lightly and does not think about the possibility that the enemy may use other unconventional means to achieve his goals, and his self-deception will help the enemy to achieve his goals more easily.
At this time, there is no need to spend a lot of money on any top hackers.
You may only need to buy a food delivery person, a courier, a cleaner, or hire a thief to move out with the machine...... If you're willing to spend a lot of money, buying the company's core members directly is another foolproof method.
It's human nature.
Looking ahead, it is inevitable to ignore the danger in the rear, and the stronger the defense of the city of Ropps to the north, the weaker the vigilance against the interior of the empire, which is a simple reason.
Vega thought of this.
So he thinks that if Old Machetar takes his people from the Immortal City to the Empire's civilian flights to Lops City, will the City of Lops find his traces?
If you put it in the usual time.
Foster may still spend a lot of energy on aviation security, and the old scimitar as a wanted criminal also has some possibility of being exposed, but when he is fully wary of Vega, Foster may not have more energy to pay attention to these trivial things, and Vega in front of him is already enough for him to have a headache.
In other words, the old scimitar is absolutely safe.
Under this premise, if the old scimitar is allowed to find a way to destroy the military airport of Lops City and attract the attention of the enemy's air force, then Vega can use the means of airlift to parachute soldiers into the vicinity of Lops City to achieve his own goals.
It's still a bit risky, though.
If the old scimitar is unable to destroy the military airport and attract the attention of the enemy army, if the enemy's war airship successfully takes off, then Vega is in danger of total annihilation.
And the security of military airports speaks for itself.
Because the aviation unit is the place with the most high-level force and the highest level, the difficulty of destroying the air port can be imagined.
Still, Vega was ready to take a gamble.
If you win the bet and take Rops, his position as the king of the north will be secured, and even if the empire opens the hole cards, it will definitely put his most difficult bone to the end, and it is impossible to trouble him as soon as it comes up.
Easy first, then harder.
In war, it has always been the first to pick soft persimmons and pinch them.
It doesn't matter if you lose the bet.
Vega is not ready to airlift the dynasty army over, if one or two airships are shot down by the empire in the air, it will be too late to cry, and what he is preparing to airlift is the empire's more than 300,000 troops.
Once the north is taken back by the empire, these people can't bring back the dynasty anyway, so it is better to take a risk at this time, so that even if he fails, he will lose at most an air force and the old scimitar, a chess piece buried in the empire.
Winning is a huge profit, and losing is insignificant.
Such a good thing, just ask how it is possible for Vega not to give it a go.
Thinking of doing it, Vega, as a man of action, immediately wrote a letter to Holt Scimitar, who was far away in the imperial capital, asking him to stop fighting with the imperial inquisition system for the time being, and instead turn to the city of Lops to destroy the enemy's airport and attract the attention of the enemy.
Of course.
Vega also understood that it was impossible to let the horses run without giving them grazing, so he gave Holt Scimitar an astronomical sum of 10 million universal gold coins as start-up capital, and promised the old scimitar to help him establish a sovereign independent state after the empire ended, and the dynasty would give him protection for free.
Short-term benefits plus blank checks.
Give him everything the old scimitar wants, will the old scimitar not do his best to complete this task?
The old scimitar, who received letters and funds, was overjoyed.
It had always been his greatest wish to let the tribe rise and help the people live a better life, and now Vega promised him to help him establish an independent state after the fall of the empire, and the dynasty would give him military protection without charging taxes, how could he refuse this benefit.
"Lops City!"
The old scimitar faded from his cloudy gaze, and his mouth roared like a wild beast seeing its prey.
He's a hunter, and now he's found new prey.
So after three days, the imperial capital's inquisition system suddenly became idle, as they found that the original rival seemed to have evacuated the Immortal City overnight, and it was unknown where he went.
All in all.
This is a good thing for the trial system of the imperial capital, and the nerves that have been tense for nearly a year can finally relax.
But that may not necessarily be a good thing for Lops City.
When the civilian airship from the imperial capital landed at the Lops Transit Station, it meant that the old scimitar's operation was about to begin.
The time he agreed with Vega was September 10.
That day can be regarded as the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there is still a month of preparation time before now.
The old scimitar had to destroy the military airport of Lops City that night, attract the attention of the army of Lops City, and make it impossible for the enemy's war airship to take off.
At the same time.
Vega would order an air formation full of more than 300,000 Imperial Army troops to fly to the vicinity of the city of Lops and set up camp, but because the opportunity was fleeting, it could only be done at the same time, and wait for the old scimitar to complete the mission before sending a message that the enemy might have come to his senses.
So this strategy is very risky.
The key to success or failure can be said to be pinned on the old scimitar alone, the old scimitar can destroy the enemy's air port and attract the attention of the enemy's air force, then great things can be achieved, if not, the whole army will be wiped out, and there is no chance to regret it.
Don't use suspicious people, don't suspect people.
Vega believed in the strength of the old scimitar.
How could that person who was able to fight with the Imperial Inquisition System and not die so far could easily fall in a place like Ropps?
