A month later.

With the arrival of the harvest season, the approval of the proposal to establish a military aircraft department, the basic completion of the construction of ships, and the end of the military training of about 200,000 main troops, Vega finally made a request to Xiya in the court to go west.

"See Your Majesty. ”

Vega knelt down on one knee, and then said loudly: "On the west bank of the Great River of Donbu, the forces led by the Great Prince do not recognize your orders, which has constituted the fact of rebellion. In order to defend the glory of the dynasty and the dignity of His Majesty, Xia Guan, as the military ambassador of the dynasty, could not turn a blind eye, so he specially asked His Majesty to lead troops to the west. ”

The crowd looked at Thea.

Every official in this court knew how much Viga had prepared for the war in the past month, so he was not surprised by this matter, and he had already guessed that Vega would bring it up today.

But Thea apparently didn't know.

He never asked about military and political affairs, so when Vega brought up this matter, she was stunned for a few seconds, and opened her mouth to keep Vega, but she couldn't say anything when the words came to her mouth.

Because she knows.

No matter how to keep it, Vega's heart is not here after all, and after getting along for so long, Thea, who has completely put her heart on Vega, certainly understands that this man's yearning for power trumps everything.

"You...... Do you have to conquer the West Bank in person?"

Xiya had a pleading tone, her face was full of worry, even if she was not familiar with politics and military affairs, she understood how dangerous it was to go west with the current strength of the east coast.

It is no exaggeration to say that nine deaths are one life.

Therefore, Vega's behavior is self-defeating in the eyes of most people, and some of the officials began to seek a way back as early as half a month ago, and ambitious people even began to plan how to replace Vega after he left.

However, the establishment of the Military Aircraft Department later made everyone die of this heart.

Because they have found that even the rights of the king are completely nullified, let alone deprived of the parliamentary power. At that time, even if Vega dies and is replaced by Iro, there will be no turn.

Vega also understands how risky it is this time.

But time was running out for him, and yesterday he received the latest report of the battle in the kingdom, and the empire had stabilized the situation in the United Kingdom, successfully establishing a small defensive ring around the dragon city and other small cities.

Now this defensive circle is impregnable.

Although the empire has temporarily stopped, anyone with a discerning eye can see that-

The empire is waiting for the internal contradictions of the United Kingdom to rise to the highest peak, so that they can easily increase the army of the Dragon City through the sea supply line, launch a full-scale war of aggression against the kingdom, and destroy the United Kingdom with internal and external troubles in one fell swoop.

Therefore, Vega replied without hesitation: "This battle is imperative. ”

This battle must be fought, and there is no one to replace Vega.

Even he himself was not sure to take the West Bank.

If this war had been handed over to someone else, I am afraid that it would have been destroyed before it reached the west bank.

"May the glory of the dynasty be with you. ”

Thea could only make the most devout prayer to Vega, hoping that Vega would return victorious.

So three days later, with 200,000 troops marching slowly towards the port city along the Donbu River, to the cheers of the people of Saint Laurent, this war received the greatest support from the people.

In the eyes of dynastic subjects.

The royal family is the only orthodoxy, and Xiya is the orthodoxy of orthodoxy, and now the eldest prince disobeys Xiya's order, then he is a chaotic minister and thief, so the subjects of the dynasty who attach great importance to bloodline naturally absolutely support Vega.

They see Vega as a teacher of justice.

As the main force of the Western Expedition, this group of soldiers was also full of confidence.

Loyalty to the dynasty was only part of the story, and it was Vega himself who really gave them confidence.

This imperial officer, who was regarded as the most formidable enemy of the kingdom and led them to sweep through the kingdom's 400,000 troops and recover the dynasty's thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, has been recognized by all the soldiers, and they even regard Vega as a victorious faith.

It must be mentioned that it is beneficial for the commander to have great prestige.

The execution of Vega's orders by the whole army was so high that it was almost forbidden to the extent that no one even questioned Vega's orders, which is quite incredible in any army.

This is a very cohesive army.

Half a month later, Vega finally came to the port city and began to inspect the merchant ships.

This port city was White Rock City, from where the west bank of the river could be crossed away from the enemy's stronghold, the 'Donbu Great', and Vega did not want to cross the river from the port of Tully, from where they would probably be in a confrontation with the enemy's main force as soon as they landed.

"General, it will take two more days for the acceptance work. ”

The Chancellor of the Exchequer, who had been sent here to take charge of shipbuilding, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and he was in a hurry to finish all 300 large ships in a month and a half, and now he was about to launch the water for testing.

"There is no urgency. ”

Vega did not seem to be in a hurry to land on the West Bank immediately, and he gave the Chancellor ample time to test and inspect the merchant ships, while he himself began to study the map of the West Bank of the dynasty.

To cross the Donbu River.

The first thing to consider is the blockade on the west bank of the dynasty, and there are no more than two ways to deal with it.

The first is to let their own aviation units cover the battle, and Vega takes the opportunity to force the river with his army regardless of casualties, this method is widely used in the world, and is also regarded by most generals as a standard way to cross the river. But if this method is not done well, the whole army will be wiped out, and he does not have so many aviation units to pinch each other with a standard aviation regiment of the enemy.

Even if it is not possible to force a river crossing.

Then simply sneak across the river without the eyes of the enemy.

Rather than being constrained by rules and regulations like the other officers, Vega thinks backwards based on the standard way of crossing the river, and finally comes up with the idea that if he can't beat you head-on, he simply won't meet you.

Hence the problem.

How can we hide from the eyes of our enemies?

After all, the enemy has two navies and one air force, and even if the bank line of the Donbu River is long enough that the enemy cannot guess which port you cross the river from, but as soon as you cross the river, it will naturally be completely exposed, and the enemy will still be able to intercept it in time to send troops at the first time.

"In that case, let the enemy catch up!"

With a strange look in his eyes, Vega summoned the Chancellor of the Exchequer and found one of the highest-ranking Rank 5 Speech Mages in the army, and asked him a question about the weather: "Major, please tell me when there will be fog in the near future." ”

"Report General, October 15 will be a rare foggy day. ”

The mage gave a specific date, which is also the most irreplaceable place for the mage although he has no combat power, their detection and prediction skills are unparalleled, and their control of the weather is exactly the same.

"October 15th. ”

Vega muttered to herself, as if she had made up some kind of determination.
