Chapter 186: Reaching a Consensus
The "wolf" is affectionate, and the "embarrassment" is intentional.
There was no need for any superfluous explanation, Vega and Inglilda were in a mess...... Reach a consensus.
At this moment, Ingliel was so excited that his face was flushed.
If this news is reported to the military department, there is no doubt that he will go from a defeated general to the greatest hero of the kingdom.
Is Vega really that valuable?
For the United Kingdom, the biggest headache right now is Kareni City.
Don't look at the recent murder of the kingdom army in the north, but as long as Kareni is not in their hands for a day, they will be like rootless pinch, and one day they will be driven out of the territory of the northern part of the empire, and the most uncomfortable thing for them is that Kareni cannot occupy it by brute force at all.
If you want to take the city of Kareni, you need to face the whole army.
Unless the civilians are slaughtered, it will be difficult to capture Kareni in the true sense of the word, and the lessons of Ingrid's past are still in front of them, and the Royal Army has no idea about the city of Kareni at the moment.
In this regard, the Kingdom Army especially hated Vega, which had united the city of Kareni.
But it is precisely because of this that the value of Vega is self-evident, which is not only reflected in Vega's command ability, but also in the influence of Vega on Kareni, as long as Vega can join the formation of the kingdom, then it becomes possible to capture Kareni.
That's right.
They just need Vega, an officer who has a lot of influence on Kareni City, to stand up and take charge of the overall situation in place of the Kingdom Army after they successfully capture Kareni.
In short, it is to establish a puppet regime to achieve the political goal of pacifying the common people.
As for Vega, he wasn't deceiving Ingrid either.
As a time-traveler, he didn't have any sense of belonging to the empire, not to mention that he had been betrayed countless times.
He is just because the empire's platform is the best and the easiest for him to get the status of a smooth sailing life, so he sheds his blood for the empire.
But now the kingdom is rising strong.
If the empire is really declining in a year or two, Vega can take this opportunity to arrange his own retreat, so it is not a wrong choice to form a good relationship with Ingliel in advance.
What, half a month ago or your mortal enemy?
In the world of adults, only interests are eternal, as long as there is no conflict of interest, then it is natural to meet and laugh at each other, although this sentence is really not convincing when it comes out of the mouth of Vega, a minor......
"Then it's hard for General Inglier. ”
"Hahaha, your lord is polite, I think we will become good friends. ”
Shaking hands with each other again, Ingrid said, "I will truthfully bring the sincerity of your official to the military department, and I think the kingdom will very much welcome talents like your official to join." ”
"I hope so, then I will wait for good news at the Central Military Academy. Vega smiled as well.
Hearing Vega's words, Ingliel not only did not wonder why Vega went to the military academy, but suddenly realized.
He patted Vega on the shoulder sympathetically and said, "The Empire will one day regret your nobles for doing such a thing. ”
Saluting to Vega, Ingrid ordered the troops to abandon the mission objectives and withdraw to the First Army, he wanted to report Vega's preparations to join the kingdom as soon as possible, and after the report, the kingdom army would immediately send people to contact Vega.
This time, both sides expressed their intentions.
Neither Vega nor English said anything about the distribution of benefits, which must be left to the second formal consultation, and the real surrender is not something that can be explained in a simple sentence or two.
During the conversation, didn't Ingreel suspect Vega?
This kind of thing certainly doesn't need to be doubted.
If it weren't for the sincerity of the sufficient, how could Vega spare his life twice, and this alone was enough to prove that Vega did indeed have the determination to surrender to the kingdom.
And the reason for the defection is also there.
Thinking about it from another perspective, even if he was kicked out of Kareni City just after he had made a great achievement, he would have a rebellious heart.
And after the report, the kingdom's intelligence system will also investigate the cause of Vega's defection in all aspects, which is not something he needs to worry about.
What he has to do is to report the situation quickly.
The airship lifted off again, and Ingrid waved goodbye to Vega in a friendly way.
Vega looked at his pocket watch and saw that the whole process had been exactly 15 minutes, so—
Bang!
A red flare rose from the forest, startling Ingreel.
He hurriedly looked towards the direction of the signal flare, only to see the forest trees shaking, and among them, he could faintly see countless imperial red eagle flags on a black background shaving, and judging from the shaking of the trees, there were no less than 10,000 troops hidden in the forest.
"Quick, raise the altitude, let's retreat at once. ”
Ingliel was finally convinced of Vega's sincerity, and if the Imperial Army attacked before they could take to the skies, they would not be able to retreat. Although Vega was no longer visible, Ingrid bowed deeply in the direction of Vega to express his sincerest gratitude.
While grateful, Ingrid has been impressed by Vega's commanding talents.
You know, the location where he landed today was decided temporarily, but even so, Vega still pulled 10,000 troops and accurately set up an ambush in advance, this kind of control of the battle situation can already be described as predicting the future, right?
Come fast, go faster.
Ingrid's war airship vanished into the skyline.
When the crisis was resolved, the tense nerves relaxed, and Vega's legs went limp, and he collapsed directly to the ground.
"It's so exciting!"
Vega, who has always paid attention to his image, couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, every minute and every second of the 15 minutes made him feel like a year, and now he just wanted to know if Zhuge Liang was as unbearable as him after singing the empty city plan.
Sure enough, the operation of risking one's life is not so easy to show.
Compared to those 15 minutes, Vega would have even liked to play Kareni again, but luckily, with his improvisational play, he managed to fool Ingrid and even left a way out for himself.
And most importantly –
He survived!
As this thought fell, Vega fell asleep, and the mental devastation was far more exhausting than the physical exertion or fighting a battle, and this life-and-death torture had exhausted all of Vega's energy.
When he woke up again, the sky was full of stars.
When I woke up, I was inevitably questioned.
In order not to make everyone suspicious, Vega could only tell the simplified version of the process of retreating from the enemy, and of course did not mention anything about the core conversation.
Naturally, Vega became the hero of the entire caravan.
With the strength of one person, the feat of retreating 3,000 enemies in just a few words has become a legend in the mouths of everyone, especially the sentence "Say that you may not believe it, your army has been surrounded by me" has become their daily mantra. Among them, the admiration in Qi Lisi's eyes is about to materialize.
Of course, there is one exception, and that is Faucer Rodney.
Vega can be sure that this is not a delusion.
He always felt that the old man Falk Rodney looked at him with a wary look, which made him suspect for a moment that his conversation with Ingrid had been exposed. But after the temptation, Faulk's performance did not seem to know the inside story.
