Chapter 467: Pull out the flag and change the flag
The Imperial army was defeated.
In the case of abandoning the 30,000 vanguard army to delay the pursuit of Vega, there are about 100,000 main forces left to withdraw in the direction of the Black Gold City, and it is difficult for Vega to catch up with Vega's speed.
And rightfully so.
After all, the enemy army directly gave up the vanguard army of 30,000, and if Vega wanted to pursue the enemy army, he must first clean up the 30,000 soldiers who were blocking the way, and under this premise, he could catch up with the footsteps of the main army of the empire.
By the time Vega cleaned up the 30,000 vanguard army, the main force of the empire was no longer visible.
In addition, Vega's troops are too bloated, even if the elite troops are temporarily arranged to pursue now, I am afraid it will be too late, because you can pursue, and of course people can also order troops to block it.
"Your Excellency, the commander is willing to be the vanguard and go to delay the enemy's footsteps. ”
A division commander saw that the enemy's vanguard had been cleaned up, but Vega didn't seem to be in a hurry to pursue the enemy, so he hurriedly stepped forward and took the initiative to ask Ying to pursue the imperial army.
As a major general.
This division commander knew very well that if the main force of the empire was allowed to retreat back to the city of black gold, then the great advantages that had been achieved now would be in vain, and the enemy might be dragged into the quagmire of a protracted war again.
"What Major General Wigley said is very true, please give the order of the commander. ”
"Now that the enemy army is gone, it will be too late to drag it on. ”
The lower official seconded. ”
“......”
A group of generals stepped forward to remind Vega as soon as possible, that they were afraid that they would miss the best opportunity and lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in vain.
But Vega was clearly not in a hurry.
He said unhurriedly: "Even if you pursue it now, who dares to guarantee that the Imperial Army will be 100% chasing?"
"This ......"
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and no one dares to guarantee it.
Vega waved his hand, and then motioned to everyone to calm down: "Since I have given this trick to the Imperial Army, naturally there will be no backhand, aren't you surprised that the war has been fought so far, and there is still no trace of the aviation brigade?"
"Commander, what do you mean ......?"
The generals instantly comprehended and said excitedly: "Have you already arranged for the aviation brigade to stop the Imperial Army on their way back in advance? ”
"No, no, no. ”
Under the surprised eyes of everyone, he shook his head and said three words in a row: "The truth is far crazier than you think, I bet that this time we can beat the imperial army forever and completely unify the entire dynasty." ”

The City of Black Gold.
Due to the exhaustion of the main force of the Imperial Army, there is now only one brigade of 8,000 people stationed in the city, so the city of black gold is extremely quiet and desolate in this dark night, and the hustle and bustle of the past has long gone.
Here's what needs to be known.
The main force of the Imperial army is about 130,000, and it has basically pursued Vega, and most of the people who remain in the city now are defeated generals who were seriously wounded in the last battle, or basically incapable of fighting ability.
Of course, high-level force is not out of the question.
However, the number of these high-level forces is really pitiful, basically only half of the establishment of the standard regiment, at this time, any army sneak attack, the city will be lost in an instant.
It's almost impossible, though.
The city of black gold is backed by the empire, the army of the dynasty was chased by them and fled in a hurry, and the kingdom was separated by 108,000 miles, and it was impossible for anyone to organize a force to attack the city of black gold at this time.
This is according to common sense.
It's a pity that since the ancient soldiers, Vega sent two armies, and one aviation brigade was in the city of black gold, which most people on their side knew, but on the bright side, Vega did not expose this aviation brigade.
The reason why this aviation brigade was not exposed was not that Vega had already thought of a strategy to break the enemy before coming.
He just wanted to prevent himself from really failing to take the Black Gold City and being chased by the Imperial Army and escaping, so he hid such an aviation brigade to cover the retreat of the army, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties.
After all, Vega doesn't fight unprepared.
Therefore, at this time, the role of this ambush aviation brigade came out.
They took advantage of the main force of the Imperial Army to pursue Vega, and according to the original order, they flew to the sky above the Black Gold City as soon as possible, and at the same time let the airborne troops land in the city to start a battle to capture the city.
In a general war.
The war airship did not dare to be so arrogant and directly landed in the city with the airborne troops, once they encountered the enemy's air force, there were no more, as long as there were so many or so, they were very likely to be wiped out along with the soldiers and the airships.
But this time was different.
Vega was sure that the only dozen or so airships left in the Imperial Army would come to pursue them, and there were not too many magicians and soldiers in the city, so he boldly ordered the airborne troops to drop into the city.
Things are going very well.
On one side is a hungry wolf that has been dormant for an unknown amount of time, and on the other side is a scarred lamb, once the two sides fight, it can almost be described as one side down.
Therefore, in less than two hours, the city of black gold has changed hands.
However, the Black Gold City was taken, but because the number of airborne troops added up to less than 8,000, and when they were grabbing control of the city, they were resisted by the remnants of the Imperial Army, and they lost about 3,000.
So in the end, it counts.
Now there are only 6,000 soldiers in the Black Gold City, and these 6,000 may not even add up to 4,000 horizontally and vertically, and these 4,000 people will be a reinforced regiment at best.
Is it possible for a reinforced regiment to hold the city of black gold?
This, of course, is impossible, not counting the rotational reserves, and not enough to carry out fortifications.
Therefore, it is more likely that the hastily withdrawn main force of the Empire can easily defeat them, and then retake the Black Gold City to continue the delayed and protracted war with Vega, so that everything is back to square one.
Vega certainly thought of this.
So he gave a simple order -
Let the aviation brigade destroy all the flags of the empire as soon as possible after taking the black and gold city, and replace them with the new dynasty white background gold crown flag, and arrange airships to take off to patrol, and all soldiers stand at the head of the wall and wait.
Click, click
At Viga's prior request, the commander of the aviation brigade faithfully carried out Vega's order, and in less than ten minutes, all the flags of the Imperial Army were removed and replaced with the flag of the dynasty.
One by one, majestic soldiers stood on the tower.
War airships roam the skies over the city.
At this time, if you look at it from a distance.
Those who don't know about it probably think that the dynasty has regained control of the Black Gold City and is heavily armed. Under this premise, no one dares to pack a ticket with less than 100,000 soldiers to recapture the Black Gold City in a short time.
If you want to use one sentence to describe the garrison strength of the Black Gold City at this time...... Probably nothing could be more fitting than the outward defeat of gold and jade.
The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear.
At this time, the imperial army obviously does not have a God's perspective.
