It didn't take a hard fight as expected.

No.

It should be said that this war did not fought.

When Arri Soder arrived at the tower with nervous nerves ready for a tough battle, he found that Vega's troops had retreated, and the offensive formation that had been laid out with great fanfare had changed to an orderly retreat formation.

Merely......

Whether it is an offensive formation or a retreating formation, it looks a little jerky, and it does not look like the posture of a battle-hardened army, but it reveals a new recruit everywhere.

Is it a delusion?

Or is it a fact?

Alex Thord was a little dumbfounded.

According to what he knew, Vega was a general with terrible command talents, and Vega's troops were a real army of tigers and wolves, and such a terrible army would not show the appearance of a new soldier under any circumstances.

Other words.

Arri Sood automatically made up a possibility.

Vega ordered the troops to do this in order to confuse him, deliberately to let his guard down and lure him out of the city in pursuit.

"General, do you need to order a pursuit?"

A brigade commander couldn't help but step forward and suggested: "The enemy's formation is stiff, the retreat is disorderly, and it is clear that it is an untrained soldier, and at this time we take the opportunity to pursue and will definitely be able to win a complete victory." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen. ”

Instead of answering the brigade commander's words, Ariel Soder turned to the officers and asked, "Do you think the devil would make such a stupid mistake? Or do you think that his main force is just a bunch of recruits who have never been on the battlefield?"

"Hahaha-"

The officers burst out laughing.

They were told by Alee Sod, apparently aware that this was Vega's ploy to lure the snake out of the hole.

"Isn't this kind of third-rate method too underestimating me? ”

A sneer on the corner of his lips turned into a sneer as he watched Vega's troops depart unharmed, and he guessed that once he ordered a large force to pursue Vega's troops, the battle would be defeated.

Whoever is underestimated, and never underestimate the people on the list of threats of war.

So is this really the case?

A staff officer cautiously asked Vega: "General, isn't this kind of behavior too risky, it is true that recruits need to be trained, but as soon as they come up, they will train the siege formation and the retreat formation in front of the enemy, once this jerky formation is seen by the enemy, it will definitely take the opportunity to wipe us out." ”

"You think they didn't see it?"

Vega laughed: "But even if they see it, they will automatically misunderstand that this is our suspicious tactic to lure them out of the city gates, so I can guarantee that they don't have the courage to order a pursuit." ”

That's right, Vega did it on purpose.

He had already realized that he was running out of time, and that in a month there would be the main force of the Kingdom Army's port city attacking, so while feinting to attack Twilight, Vega did not miss any opportunity to train his troops.

It can be said that this kind of training opportunity, which is almost a real combat battle, is hard to come by.

And the more obvious he behaves, the more the enemy may not dare to attack, this is the way of using troops.

And through this tense excitement and the way the enemy trained his troops under the knife, Vega found that this group of recruits had initially acquired some discipline and were familiar with the basic siege and retreat formations.

"Sure enough, actual combat is the best teacher. ”

This kind of military training is like holding an AK47 against your head and forcing you to learn, even if there is no discipline of the soldiers, they will obediently obey under this kind of high pressure.

However, there is no longer an opportunity for such training.

If the expectation is good, his main force will attack Saint Laurent tonight.

And as soon as the city of Saint Laurent fell, he had to order the entire army to retreat as soon as possible, otherwise when the Kingdom Army in Twilight City reacted, the whole army would have to go out to tear him apart.

————

Yves Saint Laurent.

It is now garrisoned by the 3rd Elite Division of the Royal Army, with about 3,200 troops at the two regimental levels.

For a large national capital, 3,200 people are a bit of a stretch, and now they can't even open the powerful Colossus of War due to the arrival of the main army in Twilight to support.

The only thing that can still be used is probably the Crystal Hub.

However, the Crystal Hub can only defend against the attack of the air troops, and the force of their ground forces itself is insufficient, and they may not be able to stop the attack of any brigade at this time.

Because ah.

The high armed forces of the two regiments consisted of only one squad of magicians and one brigade of professionals.

However, the commanders of the two regiments were not worried.

According to the intelligence, the enemy has overwhelmed the Twilight City, where is the enemy here......

Knock knock.

No sooner had this thought come to mind than the alarm of an enemy attack sounded.

When the two commanders ascended the tower, they nearly fainted.

In front of the city gate was a force of more than 20,000 men, their eyes glowing bloodthirsty, obviously an elite army that had experienced a hundred battles, and their own soldiers were not at the same level as these troops.

Leave that to the moment.

There are eight or nine times as many professionals and magicians in the ranks, and these high-level forces alone can directly annihilate 3,200 of them, and even if they defend the city, there is no hope of winning this battle.

Why is there such a large army here?

The two commanders didn't have time to dig deeper, because their breath was gone—

That's right, it's the Shadow Mage Squad.

In a war without a Soul Mage, the Shadow Mage are the Grim Reaper who roam the land, and their elusive figure has little difficulty in paralyzing the chain of command.

It was clear that the war was a one-sided massacre.

The enemy mages were slaughtered before they even had time to unleash their magic, not to mention the ordinary Vega soldiers who tried to take up their pitiful weapons and resist, only to be burned to ashes by the magic.

25 minutes.

This is the total time of the Battle of Saint Laurent.

This joke-like battle made Adjutant Ilo completely unsure of what words to use to express his broken heart.

If he hadn't commanded it himself, seen it with his own eyes, and heard it with his own ears, even he would have thought that some madman was telling him an April Fool's joke, ending a siege battle in 25 minutes, and the target city was Saint Laurent, the capital of eternity?

Hehe!

Even if it was a small town, no one would believe it.

Therefore, at this moment, the lieutenant Ilo completely worshipped Vega as a god.

From the day he received Viga's order, he was terrified until now, and along the way, he even failed to sleep well because of excessive nervousness and fear, after all, the next thing to command was the battle of Saint Laurent.

He's just a lieutenant.

He's just an adjutant.

Let a lieutenant command an epic campaign?

At that moment of repeatedly confirming the order with Vega, he felt that either Vega was crazy, or maybe he himself was crazy, or the world was crazy?

But now it seems that all this is probably in the calculation of the One.

Even if this battle is commanded by a pig, I am afraid that Saint Laurent can be taken.

But Vega gave him the task.

Now, as long as he returns to the Empire, he can say with pride that he once commanded the Battle of Saint Laurent under the orders of General Vega, and took the capital of the Holy Dynasty and the super city of the Jialan Continent - Saint Laurent.

This glamorous resume is enough for him to brag about it for a lifetime.

No, not just for a lifetime.

In the future, his children, grandchildren, and even future generations can be proud of it.

If Vega were standing in front of him now, he would even kneel on the ground and kiss his military boots.

"Becoming the general's adjutant is probably the most correct thing I have done in my life. ”

Ilo muttered to himself, then fell off his horse with a smile on his face and fell asleep, having not slept for more than 48 hours because he was too nervous. When the war was won, he could no longer hold on.

This joking war is destined to go down in history.

When 12 hours later.

When Twilight's Alex Thorde saw the words in the battle report that the Imperial Army had taken over Yves Saint Laurent in 25 minutes, he nearly killed the herald on the spot for lying about the military.

"Not really, tell me it's not true. ”

Alex Soud roared like a madman, but the truth didn't change because of his anger.
