Chapter 654: The First Defeat Appears

In Vega's speculation.

In the face of the attack of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, Ocasos adopted the battle plan of head-on confrontation, and there was not the slightest possibility of victory, even with the addition of Thea, a star mage.

Ultimately.

As long as the high-level forces of both sides can check and balance each other, victory will still depend on ordinary soldiers.

When Vega commanded the war, he relied on surprise, as well as his own and Ocassos to contain the enemy's Holy Dragon Envoy, the aviation unit to contain the enemy's Wyvern, and finally let the ordinary army fight the victory.

Conversely.

Without the use of intrigue and trickery, in the case of a head-on confrontation, when the quality and quantity of the enemy army is higher than yours, and a large number of Holy Rank Dragon Envoys can contain your star mages, what will your ordinary troops use to win against others.

The moment when Ocasos decided to confront it head-on.

This advantage has been reversed.

There is no chance that the Holy Dragon Kingdom will lose this war.

This kind of thing is not only something that Vega can speculate, but also the empire, the Western countries, and people with a little command experience can easily come up with these speculations, and of course, there are some generals in the dynasty army who can see it clearly.

It's a pity that just because they see it clearly doesn't mean they will say it.

Based on the situation of resignation, even if you see the unreasonableness in it, you will not question it.

And whether it is Ocasus or Thea, they are all laymen in the war, and they are not even as good as a third-rate commander, and this kind of person relies on the battle plan that he takes for granted on paper, and in Vega's opinion, he has no chance of winning.

But Vega didn't stop it.

If a few days ago, Vega had thought about escaping from here as soon as possible, regaining control of the military, and stopping this inevitable war, then the long period of confinement had helped Vega clear his mindโ€”

Let the dynasty be destroyed!

For a long time, Vega has always wanted to dominate the continent and become a behind-the-scenes king by coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

But now he realized he was wrong.

Although the reason for this incident seems to be that Ocasus was by his side and coveted the convenience brought by the star mage in the war, it was Thea's sudden betrayal that caught him off guard.

Therefore, Vega no longer thinks about coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

He wants to abandon Thea and become a true king himself, keeping everything firmly in his hands.

But there's a problem.

What is the basis for his resurgence?

The Jialan Empire is the homeland of the empire after all, and the sense of worship for Vega is not high at all, and the army does not have the consciousness of sacrificing their lives for the country, which is why Vega does not dare to use them against the Holy Dragon Kingdom, so his foundation is still in the dynasty.

But as long as the dynastic regime and Thea existed for a long time, it would be impossible for the whole dynasty to return to Vega.

This is a belief that has been engraved into the bones for tens of thousands of years.

The influence of the royal family on the commoners was too great, and Vega found that no matter how much he brushed up his military exploits and prestige, he would never be able to run to the top of Xiya, and he was not even qualified to sit on an equal footing, as long as Xiya said a word, he could even be deprived of his rights.

So Vega has come up with a solution in the past few days-

Sit idly by and ignore the war, and let the nations destroy the Holy Dynasty!

If it is not broken, it will not stand, and it will stand after it is broken.

As soon as the Holy Dynasty power was destroyed, the faith in the hearts of the common people would also collapse.

At this time, Vega established himself as the king, and saving the dynasty became a natural thing, and naturally it was impossible to be regarded as a rebellious minister and thief, because the dynasty was gone, and there must always be a new faith in the hearts of the common people.

This is why Vega asked Ilo and Mennonite to withdraw to the West Bank.

The belief of the dynasty is Saint Laurent, as long as the east bank falls, it will also announce the end of the dynasty's 10,000-year regime, at this time Vega can use the west bank as the foundation to clean up the old rivers and mountains step by step.

Although it has worked hard, it is even necessary to lose the foundation that has been laid now.

But Vega has absolute self-confidence, and he believes that as long as the last hope on the West Bank remains, and then persuade Xia, a star mage with a top two, to use her as a sharp blade, he can return to the top.

Not to mention.

He also has a trump card in his hand - Isha Annistora.

That god-rank magic, as long as it is used at a critical time, will surely complete an unprecedented victory!

So Vega is now focused on breaking through the bottleneck and waiting for the war to fail.

Anyway, Xiya is already a star mage, and his own strength is not weak, even if he is defeated, his life will not be in danger, so in Vega's opinion, his plan for the destruction of the dynasty is not risky.

And everything was as Vega expected.

The Holy Dynasty suffered its first defeat in its first battle with the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

Due to the huge disparity in quantity and quality, as well as the fact that Thea and Ocasos were pinned down by the Holy Dragon, the frontal battle of the city was almost one-sided, and the city gates were lost in less than an hour.

Based on the long-term fear of the Holy Dragon Army's dynastic army, as well as the morale of the dynastic army under the leadership of Vega, the Imperial Army relied on this defensive line inside the city to resist the enemy's attack for six hours, and did not let the Holy Dragon City fall directly under the first wave of attacks.

The forces of the Holy Dragon then withdrew from the city and returned the defensive line to the Holy Dynasty.

This may be very difficult to understand, after all, isn't it equivalent to a waste of effort to return the defense line of the hand to the dynasty army?

Actually, it's not that it's incomprehensible.

Even though the news that Vega was unable to command the war had been confirmed in every way, Augustus and the Holy Dragon King still felt that this might be a trick by Vega, so the first battle was a test battle for them.

When the temptation was over, they immediately chose to leave.

Because Augustus has even made up the scene of being unexpectedly attacked by Vega at night due to the establishment of a defensive line in the city, and then the whole army is annihilated, which can be said to be a snake bite for ten years and afraid of the well rope.

So over the next few dozen days.

The army of the Holy Dragon Kingdom began as many as a dozen temptations.

They firmly controlled the war time within six hours each time, fought and ran, and did not covet an inch of land in the Holy Dragon City, which was similar to their usual arrogant combat style, and it was not an exaggeration to describe them as cowardly.

During every offensive.

The Holy Dragon Kingdom also set up a large number of flank blocking troops to prevent Vega's sneak attack.

Anyway.

In the past few days, the Dynasty Army finally held the Holy Dragon City.

But this is to quench your thirst after all, because the countless wars are a huge blow to the dynastic army.

Again and again, the enemy does whatever he wants.

But they can only be beaten again and again.

This caused the self-confidence that the Holy Dynasty had built up with great difficulty began to gradually collapse, and the army of the Holy Dragon Kingdom finally slowly came out of its self-isolation, becoming more and more courageous, and regaining the self-confidence it once had.

One trades off the other.

In the long run, defeat seems to be doomed.
