Chapter 231: Preemptive Strike

Vega knows it through leaderboards and maps.

Rankol City and Dicaus City are the two closest medium-sized cities to the city of Lops.

Moreover, the two cities have been occupied by two participating officers, Rankol and Dicaus, located due east and southeast of the city of Lops, respectively, and it will only take one day to send the army to Lops.

Totally conceivable.

Once more than 10 armies in the north form an alliance and are ready to let his unruly guy out first, then these two cities will definitely be used as a springboard to directly threaten the safety of Ropps City.

Establish a supply support line with the two cities as the core.

Then the more than 10 group armies no longer need to worry about the excessively long march route and the location of the camp, after all, the soldiers are expensive, and if the 72-hour war takes 48 hours to travel, the joke will be big.

If I didn't guess wrong.

Now the other participating officers have already led their troops to the two cities for a meeting, because this is the default unspoken rule, whoever dares to move the heavy city will be attacked by a group, and whoever dares not to join the Allied forces will also be attacked by a group.

So what did Vega do at this time when he was not well prepared for defense, but instead ordered the aviation troops to take to the air?

Because of blitzkrieg, the emphasis is on speed.

It is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as aggressive as fire, as immobile as a mountain, as difficult as a cloud, and as moving as a thunderstorm.

As you can imagine, blitzkrieg is never a defensive tactic, even if the enemy is dozens of armies, millions of troops, Vega dares to take the initiative to wage war against them.

Lunatic?

War has always been the best stage for madmen, and the cowardly are dead.

Looking out at the morning sky from the war airship, Vega's eyes were full of excitement.

Even if the enemy on the opposite side was a five-star general, I am afraid that he would not have thought that in the face of more than 10 group armies, he would dare to take the initiative to provoke a war with less than 20,000 troops.

Strictly speaking, 15,000.

Vega left 14,000 ordinary soldiers behind the city of Lops, and gathered the remaining 15,000 soldiers and the entire army of professionals and magicians into the war airship, and launched an attack on the city of Rankol first.

The speed of the combat war airship is faster than that of the general airborne forces, so in about 3 hours Vega reached the forest near the city of Lancol and began the landing operation.

Ordinary troops, mage troops, and professional troops are assembled on the ground.

Instead of letting the war airship take off for the time being, Vega sent a team of Shadow Mages to infiltrate the enemy's city to find the coordinates of the headquarters and aviation units, and draw a map of the tactical objectives of the campaign.

The process took about 2 hours.

When the enemy's intelligence was detected, Vega repeated his old trick and ordered the magic airship to take off, and the large army moved forward in unison.

Rankol City.

Captain Toth, one of the participating officers, was quietly waiting at the headquarters of the army closest to the city gates.

He had just passed the rankings and found that the first place in the second stage, which made Neville, a general who was extremely dissatisfied, actually had the audacity to occupy the city of Lops.

Covet the 31st Army, the air force?

The delicious cake is not something that can be eaten as much as he wants, even if he covets the city of Lops, he does not dare to risk such a big disapproval in the early stage of the siege to occupy the city of Lops. Ignoring Neville's advice, this act alone is self-defeating.

So he's waiting.

Wait for the other contestants to attack with an alliance with their armies, so that they can get rid of a guy who doesn't know the rules, and they can also give Neville an explanation, and after cleaning up this guy, they will start the game again.

According to speculation.

The Allied forces should not have been gathering for more than 36 hours, and they still have 36 hours to attack, but the time doesn't matter, even if it takes 72 hours for that imp of Vega to take control of the 31st Army.

Can more than 34,000 air forces still beat their millions of allies?

No matter what you do, you will not escape the wrath of the public, and the millions of allies are no joke.

But just when Thoth thought he was at ease, an explosion was heard first, and then the scout broke into the house: "Report to the commander, our army is under attack by an unknown army, please give the order." ”

"What?"

Thort was shocked: "How can there be an army that dares to attack, now is the default alliance period, this period is the time of the default alliance, this period is not afraid that he will be attacked by a group after cleaning up Vega?"

Virtual soldiers have a hard time answering this question.

And Toth guessed a possibility for the first time, the attacker was - Vega!

According to the unspoken rules, once someone occupies the city, then the person who occupies the city during this period is the only enemy, and everyone else will be allies, and they cannot kill each other at this point, otherwise they will be the enemy of everyone by default.

In order to show his sincerity, Toth even sent only two patrolling airships over the city.

As soon as he thought about it, magic covered the headquarters, and the building was strong enough that he didn't die under the first round of magic bombardment, but it also scared him straight to the underground bomb shelter.

"Intelligence, I need intelligence!"

Toth roared, but under the carpet bombardment, the scouts couldn't get close to the headquarters at all, and the most important thing was that even the heralds couldn't convey Toth's orders to the front line, and the command system was completely paralyzed.

Without the orders of the commander, the virtual soldier will not be able to conduct efficient combat and resist at best according to instinct, which is almost useless against the organized offensive of the Viga aviation forces and ground forces.

"Damn, damn it, is this guy crazy?"

Thoth roared as he walked around the underground dugout, he couldn't believe that Vega would attack him at the first moment he had just captured the city of Lops, shouldn't he be building a line of defense and thinking about how to defend the city?

How crazy must it be to do such a thing?

The dust above his head continued to fall in the roar of magic, and in the underground bomb shelter where the magic lamp flickered, Thoth's face was like ashes, not only did he not know the situation outside, but he could not even convey command orders, he had never fought such a humiliating war.

The roar of magic continued for more than 2 hours.

Then he heard screams and explosions of magic coming from the entrance to the bomb shelter, and then he saw the Shadow Mage squad pouring into the underground bomb shelter......

"I'm not reconciled!"

Reluctantly, the Shadow Mage's dagger was sent into his chest.

Thus, after three hours, the battle of Rankor was over.

In the end, Vega was mainly bombed by the magic of the air force, the magicians tore the gaps, the professionals broke through behind the enemy, and the large army spread out in a fan shape along the important communication arteries to divide and surround the enemy's large army, achieving the goal of encircling the two wings and annihilating the enemy.

In addition to this, shadow mages were also sent to perform decapitation tactics against isolated headquarters.

So this blitzkrieg finally showed its sharpest fangs in the real officer battle.
