Chapter 404 The Imperial Ultimatum
White Rock City, headquarters.

Under the leadership of the new lieutenant, Veigar met the imperial emissary.

This imperial envoy who came from afar was none other than Eskar who hurriedly said goodbye last time.

Seeing Wei Jiadui, he immediately smiled and said: "The last time I left, I thought I would never see you again, but I didn't expect that you survived from the kingdom's 40 troops. It's a blessing for the empire." .”

Escal obviously didn't know the inside story.

The information he got was only that Vega took 2 imperial troops to Ed City to stop the Royal Army, and was chased by the Royal Army and fled back to Saint Laurent City in embarrassment, so he didn't know that Vega had colluded with the Kingdom and sold the Empire secretly up.

Wei Jia also said without blushing and heartbeat: "For the sake of the empire, this officer has devoted himself to death, but the last time the soldiers under the tent saw the 40 army was heartbroken, and fled in disregard of my order, it made the noble officer laugh. .”

"It doesn't matter, as long as the noble official cares about the empire."

Escal obviously didn't care whether Vega was really blocking the Kingdom's army, he cut to the point and said: "It's just that I heard that the noble officer brought the army to Baishi City this time, it seems that he intends to go west to conquer the rebellious dynasty's eldest prince. Officer, why do you want to do this for the dynasty? Even I can see that there are no survivors in this western expedition."

Vega's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

Could it be that the rebellious heart that has been hidden until today is finally about to be exposed?
But Veigar didn't want to expose his rebellious heart at this time, because once he betrayed, the empire might send troops to punish him as a traitor.Even if the military does not send troops, the judicial system will send judges to cross the border to assassinate.

The empire's judicial system is well-known in every country.

Veigar even heard that none of the traitors has been able to escape the pursuit of the judicial system so far.

Therefore, Wei Jia rolled his eyes, and then said casually: "To be honest, there is a reason why I took such a big risk to go west to conquer the First Prince this time. It's for the Empire."

"I would like to hear more about it." Escal looked at Veigar and said.

Veigar, as the officer he favored, was also his direct subordinate. Of course, he did not believe that Veigar would commit treason, and he instinctively believed what Veigar said, and now only one of Veigar was missing. explain.

"The Chief of Staff doesn't know anything."

Vega said eloquently: "The king ordered the West Bank to return to the rule of the dynasty not long ago, but the eldest prince violated the order, which constituted a fact of treason. Therefore, I am afraid that the power of the eldest prince on the West Bank will refuse to recognize the original promise of the king to give our country the city of black gold. This clause, so in order for the empire to get the city of black gold, I applied to send troops to the west bank. I plan to use my own strength to wipe out the power of the great prince and help our country get the city of black gold. Thank you for not blocking the 40 people of the successful kingdom. The crime of the army."

"Your official's loyalty makes me ashamed."

Escal suddenly said with a touch of emotion: "To be honest, I was ordered to come here this time to ask for the city of black gold, but I was afraid that the king would refuse to accept it, so I first inquired about the location of the noble official and wanted to ask you to help me make it easier." The king signed this transfer agreement."

it is as expected.

Veigar confirmed his guess in his heart. The empire must have seen that the war situation in the kingdom has stabilized, and this would not be the best time to launch a full-scale war of aggression. Therefore, it wanted to take advantage of this interval to obtain the Black Gold City, so as to avoid long nights and dreams.

This is definitely good news for Vega.

So he immediately wrote a letter to Escal: "Master Chief of Staff, you take this letter to Saint Laurent and give it to my lieutenant, Lieutenant Illo, he must have a way to get the king to sign this clause. But This only allows the king to admit that the city of black gold belongs to our country, but it cannot guarantee whether the power of the eldest prince on the west bank will prevent our country from obtaining the city of black gold."

"Of course, the Chief of Staff can wait a little longer."

Veiga said solemnly: "When I wipe out the power of the First Prince, my country will be able to take over the Black Gold City without a single soldier."

"Your Majesty, please don't worry about this."

Disdain flashed in Escal's eyes: "It's fine if that big prince obediently surrenders the Black Gold City. If he doesn't hand it over to our imperial army, he's not a vegetarian. When the time comes, the soldiers will hand over the Black Gold City, and he will suffer."

While receiving Vega's letter.

Escal continued: "Your Majesty, I think it's better to follow me back to Saint Laurent, without having to go on the Western Expedition with a narrow escape. The affairs of the Black Gold City are up to us, and the orders you get are also It’s just staying in the court temporarily, controlling every move of the new king of the dynasty, there is no need to do this for the empire.”

"I am an imperial soldier!"

Vega's face was full of firmness: "This time the western expedition is a crime and meritorious service. Even if I can't wipe out the First Prince's forces with my ability, I can still attract their attention and allow our country to take the Black Gold City with the least amount of troops."

"Hahaha, then I wish your official martial arts prosperity!"

Eskar glanced at Veigar appreciatively. Compared with the other division-level officers of the Seventh Army, Veigar's sacrifice and devotion did not know how many streets left them behind. It is indeed difficult for the empire to find such a loyal officer. up.

With a satisfactory answer, Escal left White Rock City.

Although Veigar's words were full of loopholes, they didn't make Eskar suspicious at all. This was also because Veigar was Eskar's favorite subordinate. If the envoy was replaced with a general who didn't deal with Vega, I'm afraid it would have been revealed long ago. up.

Also because of such a release.

Veigar finally became more confident about the war on the West Bank. With the empire distracting the West Bank, the West Bank would not be able to concentrate its forces against him.Because the City of Black Gold is the top priority of the West Bank, it is absolutely impossible for the First Prince to give up his power.

Therefore, when the time came to 10 days later, it was the eve of Vega's Western Expedition.

He had already received the news that the empire had issued an ultimatum to the First Prince on the West Bank. The news said that if the First Prince's forces did not immediately let the army withdraw from the Black Gold City, then the Empire would not rule out using force to force the dynasty to fulfill the agreement.

In order to make his ultimatum more authentic.

The Seventh Army of the Empire, which is the army Vega belongs to, and the 11th Standard Air Force of the Empire have already sent troops to the border, and the border between the two allies of the Dynasty and the Empire has become tense for a while.

Facing the imperial ultimatum, the West Bank also responded.

Although they haven't given a specific answer whether they agree or refuse, they have already transferred the aviation corps that was originally stationed along the Donbu River to prevent Vega to the city of Black Gold, leaving only about 10 war airships behind. for scouting missions.
