Chapter 136 Seizing Power
The battle soon began.

Wolf led the soldiers and charged towards the Royal Army.

The strength of the Royal Army blocking the streets is the strength of a battalion, but this battalion-level force is equipped with 5 professionals, and there are even magicians on the tall buildings in the distance to provide magic support.

Although the strength of the Imperial Army is more than three times that of the Royal Army.

But without the professional troops and no magicians to provide fire support, there was no suspense in this battle from the very beginning.

In the 3rd minute, the Imperial Army and the Kingdom Army fought hand to hand.

In the 5th minute, the professionals intervened in the battle. The five professionals, like armored chariots on rampage, led Wolfe towards the rear of the troops to cover up and kill them. Almost no one could stop their attack, so they simply blocked it with a huge number of people. Professional attack.

Due to the large number of imperial troops, professionals did not dare to consume too much mana, and the battle was temporarily stalemate.

But in the 8th minute, the support of the Kingdom Army Mage arrived, and the fire support started.

The time was fixed at the 9th minute, and as soon as the magician's fire support was launched, the imperial army began to be defeated across the board.

At this point, Wolfe could only be forced to give an order to retreat in the end, but lost a large number of troops on the way to retreat. When he returned to a safe place, the remaining 1500 companies of the entire 800-man army No one arrives.

The Imperial Army was defeated.

From the initiation of the charge to the defeat and retreat, the whole process did not even take 10 minutes.

Veigar had expected this ending long ago. It was too easy for 500 people to hold back 1000 people for a few minutes. As long as the enemy's mage support arrived in time, the imperial army would have no chance of winning.

"Captain Veigar, I'm sorry, we failed to break through the blockade."

The disheartened Wolfe looked at Veigar with a decadent expression on his face. The battle just now hit him too hard, because if he couldn't break through the blockade, it meant that he would be found and killed by the Royal Army sooner or later.

"Captain Wolfe, you have done your best."

Although Veigar disdains Wolfe's plan in his heart, he still wants to comfort him a little bit.

Wolfe sighed, and then looked at Veigar with some resentment in his eyes: "Captain Veigar, in fact, the magicians from the Kingdom Army just arrived in the 8th minute. It takes five minutes to break through the line."

Wolfe didn't continue to speak.

But even a fool can tell that Wolf is blaming Vega for the defeat of this battle, and even takes it for granted that as long as Vega's professional brigade participates in the battle, it will be easy to break through the blockade .

Where does the confidence come from?
The opponent has 500 troops, and it may be difficult to defeat a 500-strong army with 1500 troops, but it is really easy to entangle you for 10 minutes. Even if you break through the defense line, the elemental mage will instantly lose all previous efforts when he arrives.

Veigar wanted to curse out loud, but he didn't answer directly.

He just kept his tone as calm as possible: "Captain Wolfe, the matter has come to this point, it seems impossible to break through the defense line, I think it's better to give the troops to me to command, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope?"

"Captain Veigar wants to implement your guerrilla tactics again?"

Wolfe shook his head and said: "A tactic that has not been tested in actual combat, rashly applied to the battlefield is simply making fun of the lives of soldiers. Please allow me to refuse your request. I need to be responsible for the lives of my subordinates."

Ah!
A trace of anger flashed from Veigar's face.

In the name of being responsible for the soldiers, he insisted on going his own way, but in fact it was obvious who was making fun of the soldiers' lives. That's why Vega hated the guy who talked about righteousness every day, but in fact trampled on it unscrupulously.

"Captain Veigar."

Wolfe didn't notice Veigar's expression at all, he continued: "It's almost dawn, I think we should find a hiding place first, and search for supplies by the way, the troops' supplies are running out, probably only enough for today amount."

Veigar glanced behind him.

The soldiers had been fighting for nearly 20 hours, and both mentally and physically were reaching their limits. Veigar agreed with Wolff and began to find another hiding place.

Finding a hideout in the city is easy.

Some huge buildings are themselves natural shelters, and Veigar and Wolf arrive at a theatrical compound.

There is a large enough site here, and this type of building is not the key bombing area of ​​the Royal Army. As for food supplies, it is not difficult. There are enough food stores nearby, and most of the residents here have fled to the air-raid shelters.

Everything is going smooth.

The Royal Army is also busy building a blockade line of defense and seizing some important buildings such as air-raid shelters and government buildings. As long as they don't take the initiative to provoke them, they don't have the extra troops to conduct a blanket search.

So the Imperial Army got a respite.

After everyone started to repair, Veigar invited Wolfe to an empty workshop.

"Captain Veigar, I heard you are looking for me?"

Wolfe sat on a chair and took out a cigarette irritably: "Is there anything important?"

"Yes, there is indeed one important thing that requires your consent."

Veigar showed a bright smile towards Wolfe. If someone who was familiar with Veigar saw this bright smile, he would definitely run away immediately. Unfortunately, Wolfe had only heard of Veigar's name and deeds.

So Vega said in a very calm, even somewhat friendly tone: "Captain Wolf, let me say it again for the last time, please hand over the command, I believe I will not disappoint you."

"Cough cough..."

Wolfe still shook his head: "Captain Veigar, marching and fighting is not a child's play. With all due respect, you haven't been to a military academy, and you don't have any historical achievements, and you are still a child... Cough cough, um, sorry."

Vega suddenly realized.

It wasn't until then that I realized that although Wolfe looked polite on the surface, he actually didn't take him seriously, and even treated him like a willful child from the beginning to the end.

"In that case, I can only apologize."

Veigar shook his head regretfully, then walked out of the door of the room, and said to the two professional subordinates at the door: "Captain Wolfe works day and night, and needs a good rest because he is exhausted. You have to watch him carefully, and don't let anyone disturb his rest."

"Yes, Captain."

"Captain Veigar, what do you mean?"

Wolf heard that he wanted to follow, but was blocked by two professionals.

"Captain Veigar? Captain Veigar! Veigar!!"

Despite Wolf's angry call behind him, Veigar walked straight towards the hall of the theater complex without looking back.
