Aiden Gary didn't want to go to war with Vega.

But to fight or not to fight, this matter is not up to him.

Because he also understood that the initiative of the war had been in the hands of the East since the end of the last war, and if Vega wanted war, they had to accompany them, and there was no possibility of avoiding war at all.

Since there is going to be war.

Then the goal is to win.

But the problem now is that due to the skyrocketing size of the country in a short period of time, they have not had time to expand their army, and with the territory of the Holy Dragon Kingdom on the mainland, their defense is overstretched.

In the absence of certainty from which point exactly Vega will attack.

Vega's attempt to break through the defense line of the Jialan Mountains was a breeze.

"So I think there are only two options left for us. ”

Aiden Gary looked at Grand Duke Baya and said, "The first is to immediately abandon the territory of the Holy Dragon Kingdom and withdraw the army to the country, with our current military strength, it is more than enough to ensure the security of the homeland." ”

"Also. ””

Aiden Gary continued: "Vega Saint Laurent will inevitably choose to take the territory of the original Holy Dragon Kingdom first because of our concessions, and stabilize the foothold in the west. It takes a long time to digest such a large territory, and they are in the name of retaking the country, and once they achieve their goal and want to gain an inch, they will become unknown, so they can ensure our domestic security in a short time. ”

"Give up the territory of the Holy Dragon Country?"

Grand Duke Baya had a painful look on his face, obviously a little disliked this suggestion.

Eating something in his mouth, how could he spit it out so easily, the territory of the Holy Dragon Kingdom is larger than their Principality of Baya, this is finally just in his hand, and he flew before it was hot, how could he stand it.

Therefore, Baya couldn't help but ask, "What about the second way?"

"Reinforcements, please!"

Aiden Gary pointed to other countries and said: "The West is in unison, last time we saved the whole West, this time Vega Saint Laurent with half a million troops is ready to go to war against our country, and we are a member of the West, which is tantamount to a war against the whole West." As long as the entire West can be mobilized, it will be easy to resist the attack of the Jialan Kingdom this time. ”

"Great idea!"

The second suggestion was clearly very much liked by the Grand Duke of Baya.

He hurriedly said: "You immediately ask for support from other countries, as long as they are willing to come, I can subsidize their military expenses." ”

"I see, Your Majesty. ”

Aiden Gary saluted, then began to prepare.

However, what Aiden Gary did not say about the second suggestion was that he did not support it.

As for the reason for not supporting them, it is because he believes that Western countries will not necessarily support them.

Need to know.

After the last war, the vitality of the Western countries was greatly damaged, and these two short months can not be relieved, and they need longer time to recover their peak combat effectiveness, which means that they have no extra energy to help the Principality of Baya.

And that's just one of them.

The second reason is that Vega only brought 500,000 troops this time, and it is clear that he is here to trouble their Principality of Baya, not to settle accounts with the Western countries, and Vega has made it clear at this point, otherwise it would not be 500,000 troops, but I am afraid that it has already poured out.

Other words.

If they throw in their army without authorization to support the Principality of Baya, it is very likely to anger Vega, and when the border army of the Jialan Empire collectively crosses the Jialan Mountains and sets off a war between the East and the West in advance, they will lose by eight points in their current state.

In other words, no country wants to escalate the war at this time.

Therefore, they will most likely not support the Principality of Baya, and in the case that Vega does not have many troops, they would prefer to see the Principality of Baya and the Jialan Kingdom pinch each other to buy time for them to regain their strength.

In a nutshell.

They did not believe that Vega, with 500,000 troops, could destroy the Duchy of Baya, the second largest power in the West. As long as the Principality of Baya is not destroyed, they don't care.

If you really want to support it.

It must not be to support at the beginning, but to wait for the Principality of Baya to really hold on, and then send troops to support.

Giving charcoal in the snow is better than icing on the cake, and it can also get more benefits.

As for the grace of saving lives, the same feelings?

You're kidding, revenge is already the greatest mercy.

Although Aiden Gary saw everything through, he still applied for reinforcements from the Principality of Baya.

Because he knew that if he didn't try it, Grand Duke Baya would not give up.

The replies from the Western countries were swift.

But the content of the reply letter is the same, at the beginning, I first thanked the Principality of Baya for its great kindness before, and then spit out a lot of bitterness and said that all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, and the national strength is empty, which can be summed up in one sentence - love can not help.

"Bastards! ”

In the past few days since the Grand Duke of Baya received the letters, he didn't stop cursing in his mouth: "These white-eyed wolves, they don't want to think about who helped them return to the West in the first place, without me they would have become a prisoner of Vega Saint Laurent, and now I have a problem, none of them are willing to help me, bastard!"

After scolding, it stopped.

Reluctantly accepting this fact, Grand Duke Baya looked at Aiden Gary: "Your Excellency General doesn't seem surprised by the reply of the countries?"

"From the very beginning, I had some hunches. ”

Aiden Gary said: "The Western countries do not want to provoke Vega now, let Vega devote more troops to the West, and then directly escalate the local war into a full-scale war between the East and the West. ”

"Then why didn't the general say it in the first place?"

"Even if you say that, will Your Majesty not ask for their support?"

"This ......"

Seeing through his thoughts, Grand Duke Baya was a little annoyed and angry.

But the other party was Aiden Gary, and he didn't dare to be angry, so he could only smile and relieve the embarrassment: "Then may I ask the general, do you really want to give up the territory of the original Holy Dragon Kingdom and shrink the defense line next?"

"That's right, only by shrinking the forces can there be a glimmer of life. ”

Aiden Gary said with great certainty: "If you don't shrink your forces, the result of wanting everything is that you don't get the watermelon, but you lose the sesame seeds in your hand, and sometimes you can give up something to better protect more important things." ”

"I see, everything will be done according to your wishes. ”

Grand Duke Baya sat back in his place decadently, and the boiled duck flew like this, which made him feel distressed and dripping blood, but unfortunately this was indeed the only way to avoid the war. Whether it's the Principality of Baya or the West, it takes too much time.

"Please don't be upset, Your Majesty. ”

Aiden Gary smiled and said: "Losing is for better gain, please don't forget that this is the west after all, and the east and west can be separated by a Jialan mountain range, once it is winter, the east cannot threaten the west......"
