Chapter 700: Borrowing a Knife

East Coast.

At the end of the negotiations between Vega and the Empire, Foster also received orders from the Empire.

Naturally, this order required him to withdraw immediately to the country.

"Alas, Hausman mistook me!"

Foster said angrily.

If it weren't for Hausman's defeat and the fall of the eastern part of the empire, even with the existence of a god-rank mage, he would not be able to attack the west bank, but no matter how bad he was, he could block Vega in the barren land of the west bank, further limiting the pace of the rise of the Jialan Empire.

But all this is no longer possible.

Before his series of battle plans against god-rank mages were implemented, they were directly reduced to waste paper, and he didn't even find out whether there were god-rank mages in the Jialan Empire.

This made Foster very aggrieved.

At the same time, he hated and despised Haussman from the bottom of his heart.

"What's the use of a general who can't even do it with simple delays?"

Foster hurried to the station of the Holy Dragon Country, and said indignantly: "It's better to hand over such a useless general to the Jialan Empire, it's better that the little ghost can reuse Hausman, so that this damn guy can do a good job of harming the Jialan Empire." ”

Between talking to yourself.

Foster had arrived at the Holy Dragons' station.

The purpose of this time was undoubtedly to say goodbye to Augustus, and at the same time to test whether the Holy Dragon Kingdom would retreat or fight next after they left the East Coast.

Foster learned from the intelligence.

Now the territory of the Holy Dragon Kingdom is being harassed by the branch of the Jialan Empire led by Qi Lisi, although it does not pose any threat to the Holy Dragon Kingdom, but the existence of flies only needs to fly around to be annoying enough.

"Your Excellency Foster, what are you doing this early morning?"

Augustus was still sleepy, and sat down opposite Foster in civilian clothes.

As a result of the daily contact over the past few months, the two have become more and more casual, omitting even basic etiquette, and Augustus's views on war have been recognized by Forster, and the two have become sympathetic.

"The main reason for coming today is to say goodbye to the Legion Commander. ”

Foster pushed the brewed black tea in front of Augustus and said: "We have made a deal with Vega Saint Laurent, and the price of this is my withdrawal from the east coast, so in three days, our army will return home. ”

Whew-

Augustus blew on the warm black tea and didn't reply, just savored it.

Once Foster leaves, he will be left with a lone army on the entire east coast, and when the time comes, Vega will attack the east bank with an army and a divine mage, what will he do to resist the other party? Or do you also learn from Foster and apply to the Holy Dragon King to withdraw his army?

Forster seemed to see Augustus in his mind.

He said in a rather seductive tone: "After I leave, I wonder if the legion commander is interested in taking over the other half of the east coast?"

Now the entire eastern coast is divided equally between the Empire and the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

Even the defense system of Saint Laurent is divided in half, and the core city of Saint Laurent is governed by two countries, and Augustus can be said to have coveted all the control of Saint Laurent for a long time.

But Augustus also understood.

These cities are tempting, but you have to have a life to enjoy them.

Once Vega attacks the eastern coast, paying too much attention to these cities will only degenerate to the point where people die for money and birds die for food.

Forster seemed to understand Augustus' concerns again.

He continued to tempt, "We have received information that there do not seem to be any god-rank mages in the Jialan Empire. ”

"Is this information true? Is there any evidence?"

Augustus was a little excited, but he was no longer the commander of the previous scriptures, so until he saw the evidence, even if Foster said it was conclusive, he would never believe these nonsense.

"Well, there's no evidence for the time being. ”

Hearing Forster's words, Augustus looked at him with disdain.

Foster didn't care, he continued: "Well, I can give you all the plans I have made to deal with the Divine Mage, even if the enemy really has a Divine Mage, you can defeat the army of the Jialan Empire." ”

"Are you kidding?"

Augustus snorted and said, "I admit that the tug-of-war and guerrilla tactics you mentioned last time are indeed reasonable, but in the field of war, it is not reasonable, because war is never logical or reasonable. I wouldn't dare use your untested tactics, even if they were given to me for nothing. ”

"Legionnaire, please understand one thing. ”

Foster seemed to have made up his mind today not to fool Augustus and swore not to give up: "Whether there is a god mage in the Jialan Empire is a matter of concern to our country, your country, and even the whole world, although I don't dare to guarantee that you will be able to defeat the god mage in this plan, but even if it is not good, you can test the details of the Jialan army with low losses." ”

"This ......"

Augustus seemed to waver a little.

Foster pushed the plan in front of Augustus: "This is the whole plan, now it will all be handed over to you, the Legion Commander, and the final use is all up to the Legion Elder in your thoughts, so please allow me to say goodbye first, I hope that next time you and I will have a chance to meet." ”

With that, Foster left the Holy Dragon Army garrison.

There is a saying that if you sell your ideas too much, it will be counterproductive.

And Foster had already concluded that Augustus would use this strategy.

Because Foster understands one truth very well -

If you want someone to close a window, then you should propose to the other person to close the door and the window, so that the other person will most likely not close the door, but will settle for the next best thing and close the window for you.

In the middle of the conversation just now.

Foster told Augustus that with his strategy, he would definitely be able to win the war without fear of the god mage.

As soon as you hear this, you know that it is very unreliable.

Augustus didn't choose to believe either.

But Foster put it another way, my strategy is formulated for victory, even if I can't achieve victory in the end, isn't it easy to try out the enemy's details and then retreat with low casualties?

It's like killing a chicken with a knife.

Foster handed the knife to Augustus, who thought that it would be more than enough to tease and tease the chicken, even if he could not kill the cow.

Figured this out.

Augustus officially took over the entire East Coast.

On the one hand, he was preparing to retreat, and on the other hand, he arranged several lines of defense according to the plan, intending to use this tug-of-war and guerrilla method to compete with Vega on the east bank, so as to test whether Vega had a god-rank mage.
