Chapter 709: Fleeing from the wind

The time came to the seventh day.

According to the war letter issued seven days ago, today is the day of the attack on the city of Tully.

But Vega didn't have any sense of urgency, and he was even more relaxed than the previous day, on this day he actually slept until three o'clock in the morning, and if it weren't for the adjutant who risked his death to knock on the door, he might have missed the time to go out.

Intentionally?

Or do you see war as child's play?

On the contrary, Vega did not regard the war as a child's play, but because in his opinion, today was the least stressful day, and the real war had already begun seven days ago, and he had spent countless efforts to confuse Palitzer in those seven days.

So after seven days of nervous tension.

As soon as he suddenly relaxed, Vega inevitably fell asleep in the dark, and even forgot the time.

But that's not the point.

After his self-directed and self-acting, it was impossible for Palitzer not to retreat.

Therefore, it is not a war to be fought today, but to move the whole army to the city of Tully without a single soldier, and then wait quietly for Palitzer to persuade Augustus to return to the Holy Dragon Kingdom, and he will naturally recover all the land.

That's the benefit of bluffing.

As long as you establish yourself as invincible and convince your enemies, you can do whatever you want.

Even......

Augustus didn't even dare to use Foster's knife.

"I declare, all the army, take over the city of Tully!"

Standing on the high platform, Vega gave the soldiers such a natural order, as if the city of Tully was already under his control, so under this order, the whole army moved slowly in the direction of the city of Tully.

The pace of the massive march was very slow.

The enemy's reconnaissance unit watched them the whole time.

If this were placed in a peacetime war, Vega would send a counter-reconnaissance force to hunt down the enemy's scouts in order to achieve the goal of taking them by surprise, but today he did nothing, allowing the countless reconnaissance troops on the other side to see it seriously.

So less than three hours after Vega stepped out of the station, Palitzer received the news.

————

Tully City, Underground Headquarters.

Due to the last time he was caught by Vega, he moved all his headquarters and residence to this secret underground command post to prevent Vega from repeating his old tricks, and arrested him again.

At this time in the underground command.

As soon as Palitzer got the battle report, he summoned a group of officers: "Ladies and gentlemen, the enemy has already moved, and the preparations for your retreat made yesterday are ready, right? Now we will immediately retreat towards Saya, and join Commander Augustus." ”

"Wait a minute, Legionnaire. ”

A staff officer said: "Commander Augustus' order is to retreat only after the battle, if the enemy is really defeated, we will abandon the city and flee before the fight, if it reaches the ears of Commander Augustus......"

"Stupid! there's no place for you to talk here, give me orders!"

Palitzer slammed the table and pointed at the staff officer with a slashing scolding.

This also made the staff officer very aggrieved, he was obviously well-intentioned for the sake of Palizer, lest Palitzer be judged by Augustus and others after returning to Saya, but now it is good, but he was scolded instead.

"Yes, Legionnaire. ”

With a feeling of incomprehension and grievance, everyone began to implement the retreat plan.

After everyone left the conference room, Palitzer said to himself: "Hmph, a group of rat-eyed guys, if we really fight with the Jialan Army, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back alive." ”

Palitzer recalled the horrific scene again.

He did not make this matter public, because the stakes were so high that the less people knew about it, the better, and if it was made public here, it would inevitably make the morale that had fallen to the bottom completely disappear, and cause all the soldiers to fear war from the bottom of their hearts.

So just tell the other officers to retreat, and there is no need to say anything else.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand him, he doesn't need to explain it to his subordinates, as long as Augustus and the Holy Dragon King can understand him, then it will be enough for him.

Since yesterday began to prepare until now.

Therefore, under the order of Palizer, the whole army was able to withdraw from the city of Tali as quickly as possible and converge in the direction of the main army of the city of Saya, which made the residents of the original Holy Dynasty who had already taken refuge in the air hole in the city and shivered did not react.

They didn't come out of it, though.

It wasn't until the Jialan Army took over the city and told them that it was safe, that they couldn't believe that the war was really over, and His Royal Highness the Prince of the Holy Dynasty, who he once regarded as one of his beliefs, stepped back into the land again.

"Our faith has not gone away. ”

"Our faith is just getting back on its feet in another way!"

A commoner raised his arms excitedly and shouted, and the eyes of the wounded civilians beside him, who had lost their faith after the fall of the dynasty, once again burned with the flame of hope.

What does it feel like?

It was like a walking corpse recovering its soul, they once again experienced what it was like to be alive, and they saw once again the existence called 'hope' and the dawn in the infinite darkness.

Compared to the war-torn West Bank.

The East Coast, which was the first to fall, undoubtedly understood the pain of war and was more receptive to new beliefs. They did not initially protest strongly against the establishment of the Jialan Empire, and even staged various forms of demonstrations, like the unfortunate West Bank subjects, but these protests did not completely disappear until the recent victory.

Therefore, it is the opposite of the West Bank.

Vega was greeted with flowers and applause, and in the midst of the welcome of the civilians, he stood on the high platform in the central square, raised the sword of victory and said: "My people, I am sorry to keep you waiting, and now I can finally stand on my homeland and officially declare to you that your faith is not dead, he has risen again!"

"Victory!" "Victory!" "Victory!"

Civilians raised their arms and shouted, enjoying the joy of victory.

Especially after the Wurms fled in despair, and the bloodless deeds of the Vega soldiers spread, the civilians almost regarded Vega as gods, because such a powerful army did not even have the courage to fight their leader, what could be more glorious than this?

And not just civilians.

For soldiers, it is also like falling into a dream.

They were ready to fight to the death, but when they arrived here, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the enemy had fled when they heard the news of their advance, and there was nothing more proud and worthy of boasting for the soldiers.

Once again, morale has been greatly boosted.

One trades off the other.

Compared to the morale of Vega's side, this retreat without a fight cast a heavy haze over the Holy Dragon Army.
