Chapter 367: Fiction is Reality
Yves Saint Laurent.
Vega has assembled an elite force and is now waiting for news from Mennonite.
If all goes well, then presumably the commander of the Kingdom Army has been tricked by Mennonite, and then thinks that he will really attack the city of Saya, and escape the defenses of Yves Saint Laurent.
This is the difference between rhetoric on paper and implementation in practice.
If the enemy is a layman who does not understand war, he can just follow the step-by-step process, and this step can be directly omitted.
But if the enemy is a notorious commander, it is necessary to take into account that he may have seen through his plans.
On the premise that the target is not going to be changed.
This necessitates a number of means of obfuscation.
First of all, it is necessary to blindfold the other person so that the enemy's eyes can only see the plan you want to show him.
The second is to seal the other party's ears so that the enemy's ears can only hear the information you want to hear to him.
As long as the enemy is shown the wrong plan and hears false information, then they will not be able to discern the direction, and what they originally believed in will be denied in an instant.
In a nutshell.
All Vega did was provide some information to the enemy and let them judge for themselves, not interfere with it.
Humans are mostly extremely conceited and arrogant creatures, and most of the time they are convinced of the conclusions they come up with, and blind to the truth.
Fiction is real, reality is virtual.
This is the invincible way of using troops, and Vega knows this deeply.
He openly told the enemy about his plan to be carried out, and this method of truth and fiction could easily shake the enemy's mind and confuse them.
Then suggest that the enemy has a more perfect plan, so that the enemy thinks that you will choose the best option, and then convince the other party of this, which is not true.
So what we have to wait for now is news from Mennonite.
If Mennonite's performance is a little more brilliant, then after receiving the news that everything is going well with him, Vega can directly send troops to Starfall City and take the enemy by surprise.
As for whether Mennonite will betray him?
First of all, Vega is not the kind of chief who only gives sweet dates and not sticks.
While he gave Menno what he wanted, he also gave Menno a poison that would recur at regular intervals, so that Menno had no way out, and if Menno did not return to Saint Laurent within a month, he would definitely die of poison.
Mennonite is also quite aware of this.
Therefore, he had to work hard to perform, instead of turning around and selling Vega, after all, what he feared most was death.
Compared with the unyielding gentleman who would rather die, Vega prefers to see the villain who forgets his righteousness.
For the control of this kind of villain, as long as you do what they like, give them sweetness at the same time, and do not forget to firmly grasp the things they fear in your hands, they will not escape from the palm of your hand.
So Mennonite has nowhere to run.
A day later, Vega finally received a letter from Mennonite that everything was going well.
As soon as he got the letter, Vega ordered the whole army to be on standby, and as soon as it was dark, they would immediately go out of the city.
In this battle, it is necessary to capture Starfall City and revitalize the whole game of chess no matter what.
1:00 a.m.
The gates of Yves Saint Laurent were opened for the first time after the coronation.
Vega's army took advantage of the darkness to move out, men were sealed, horses were wrapped in cloths, and carefully avoided the eyes and ears of the kingdom army, and 3,000 men quickly advanced towards the hidden mountain road, without making a sound on the way.
Although the path around the Twilight Mountains is steep and difficult to navigate, it is precisely because of the steep terrain that there is no reconnaissance force of the Kingdom Army at all, and through this road, you can cross Twilight City and Radiance City and reach Starfall City in two days.
"General, it's coming. ”
In the evening of the third day, Vega was able to look out at Starfall from afar.
Through the military binoculars, Vega could clearly see that the gates of Starfall City were wide open, and the guards at the gate were drowsy, without the slightest preparation for battle, and the entire city was undefended.
"The whole army rests. ”
Vega gave the order to rest: "At 24:00 tonight, we will launch a surprise attack, leaving us only one night, if we can't break into the city tonight to burn the supplies and retreat, then by dawn, the reinforcements of Radiance and Twilight will tear us to pieces." ”
"Everyone!"
Vega glanced at the crowd, "Please enjoy the peace before this war. ”
"For victory!"
As soon as the spears were straight, the faces of the soldiers were full of anticipation.
That's right, it's anticipation rather than fear, and if they don't have to wait until the evening to do so, they even want to attack Starfall right now.
Perhaps in Vega's opinion.
The upcoming battle for Starfall City was not a war to be proud of, because there was hardly any suspense in this war, and the enemy had already been toyed with by him.
This kind of war without difficulty, there is no reason to boast at all.
It stands to reason that only a win-or-death war like the counterattack between Karini and Yves Saint Laurent can truly be called a war, and only that kind of war will make his nerves collapse to the limit.
And this battle is too boring?
But the soldiers are different from other officers.
Only they know exactly what kind of miracle the war is about to take place...... No, this war is enough to take on the title of epic battle.
Need to know.
Once Starfall City is captured and supplies destroyed, the Kingdom Army will have to temporarily withdraw its troops, and if they don't, they may not be able to wait for the new supplies from the port city and their entire army will collapse.
Other words.
What Vega is going to do today is to use 3,000 soldiers to retreat the enemy's army of 200,000!
Has there ever been such a war in history?
No! Not a single one!
Not to mention 3,000, even a war in which 30,000 people repelled an army of 200,000 is not examinable, so if this battle is really successful, a real epic and even legendary battle will be born.
This is not an illusory place of war.
This is the real real world, in this war-torn world, an epic battle is enough to make a general, and it is enough to shock the entire Jialan Continent.
As a direct participant in this war.
These 3,000 of them may be remembered by history, and this war is destined to be immortalized.
So in the face of the coming war, they are expecting, not fearing.
For the sake of glory and victory, even if it is to give one's life, why not.
And the commander of this war is none other than their faith - Vega.
It is no exaggeration to say that they have not tasted real defeat since they followed Vega, but they have done something that no other officer or soldier dared to dream of - taking Saint Laurent and sweeping the kingdom army.
So die tonight for glory.
When the early hours of the morning came, Vega gave an order, and the whole army launched an attack on Starfall City.
