Mage Veja

Chapter 695
Indecisiveness leads to disaster.

In the end, when it was determined that there was no hope, Hausmann Christian chose to surrender.

Continuing to struggle is completely meaningless except for the death of a few more soldiers. If the enemy is well prepared, even if there is no star mage, he will definitely lose this battle, because this is a trap at all, and he has thrown himself into it. snare.

"Miss, the enemy has surrendered."

As soon as Yiluo received the news, he immediately reported to Shia excitedly.

This news made Shia a little surprised, because the war has just entered a fever pitch, and according to common sense, it should last for half a day, or after her next star spell is released, the imperial army may choose to surrender.

But this capitulation was a little too soon.

The total casualties were less than 7, and the enemy couldn't wait to surrender without trying to break through. Could there be fraud?

Shia looked at Yiluo and said, "Order our soldiers not to take it lightly, and send a troop to remove all their weapons and mage's casting medium. After confirming safety, the main force is allowed to approach and arrest them."

"Your Majesty understands."

Under Yiluo's personal leadership, more than 20 soldiers of the empire were disarmed and captured. Commander Hausman was also taken alone to an interrogation room, waiting for Shia's formal interview.

creak-

The door of the interrogation room was opened, and Shia and Yiluo stepped into it.

Housman, who heard the sound, quickly opened his drowsy eyes.

Before Shia and Yiluo took the initiative to ask, as a prisoner, he said to Shia: "I think you are Miss Shia, the wife of His Excellency Vega, I want to turn to the light and serve your army. Are you willing to accept me, a defeated general? To show my sincerity, I can tell you everything I know. As a five-star general of the empire, I was still serving in the imperial capital a while ago, and I still know some imperial secrets."

"..."

This sentence made Yiluo and Xiya stunned for a long time, unable to continue.

Generally, the senior military officers of the empire are relatively tough, and it is difficult for them to tell the secrets of the empire, let alone voluntarily surrender.This is the first time they have seen this kind of situation that they are ready to confess to all senior officers without even being punished, especially this guy is a five-star general. Nor is it.

"Can I ask why?"

Shia didn't rashly accept or reject the other party's surrender, but asked why.

"The first reason is that I want to die peacefully."

After a pause, Housman said very seriously: "Death in a prison cell as a prisoner? I absolutely cannot accept this kind of thing. Even if I can't leave peacefully with full of glory, there must be a place facing south and full of flowers in spring." , There is a shaded cemetery in summer."

"Well, that's the most important reason."

Hausman seemed afraid that Shia would not believe it, so he added this sentence very solemnly before continuing: "Second, I have had enough of being with this group of mediocre people who play good cards badly, and I must take revenge on Foster once. , it was this guy who made me taste the humiliation of failure for the first time in my life."

There is nothing wrong with that.

This was the only failure in Housman's life.

In retaliation, he wanted Foster to know how wrong it was to sacrifice him.

"I understand."

Shia nodded and said, "I will convey your thoughts to Vega when he returns. Please wait at ease during this period, but please report the detailed secrets of the empire to Lord Yiluo one by one."

"Thank you Miss Shia."

Housman bowed his head towards Shia, and tactfully did not mention the predecessor of the queen of the Shia dynasty.

creak.

The door was closed again.

Shia said to Yiluo: "The matter of the Black Gold City is entrusted to you. Now I need to bring the army back to Dunbu City to assist Lord Mennonite, so as to prevent the east bank from taking the opportunity to advance."

"Don't worry, the lower officials will take good care of these captives."

After saying goodbye to Shia, Yiluo returned to the interrogation room.

He snorted, and didn't give Housman a good look: "Tell me everything you know, it's best not to play tricks, you can deceive me and the lady, and you can't hide from the commander-in-chief." Eye."

"Your Excellency is overthinking, I am telling you the truth."

Housman said solemnly to Yiluo.

This time it was indeed not mixed with any water, and it was not a conspiracy by him. He really wanted to teach Foster a profound lesson. At the same time, it also meant that he concluded that the empire was exhausted and could no longer allow him to enjoy his old age.

In contrast.

He is very optimistic about Vega's Jialan Empire.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Jialan Empire is in ruins and Vega's ambition is high, as long as he works hard for a few years like he did when he was young, and earns enough meritorious service, he might be able to retreat behind the scenes and touch the fish for the next year before re-entering the earth. For safety.

As for defeat?

Hausmann never considered this matter.

He thinks that his state has declined sharply as he grows older, but it is by no means comparable to those mediocre talents in the empire, especially Foster, the guy who has been crushed by him since the military academy.

So the city of black gold won a big victory.

News of the surrender of 30 troops in the eastern part of the empire spread quickly.

Therefore, Vega took down the city of Elkia in one go, opened the gateway to the east of the empire, and at the same time pointed his sword at the city of Xelantu, another economic and transportation hub in the east.

This not only made the empire, which was defending against the rebels, panic, but also Foster on the east coast became anxious.

"That traitor who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"

For Hausmann's surrender, Foster could not bear it.

In his opinion, when he knew that he would be defeated, the most important thing to do was not to surrender, but to use the strength in his hands to force out some cards of the Jialan Empire, especially to test whether the enemy had a divine mage.

But Housman did nothing and surrendered directly.

This made Foster look down on Housman from the bottom of his heart, and felt ashamed that he lost to such a person by one point every time in the military academy. He didn't even understand why he lost to such a person.

Besides.

Through intelligence, Foster also learned that Hausmann had surrendered to the Jialan Empire, and was actively persuading some senior officers, trying to instigate the entire imperial army to surrender to the Jialan Empire.

This move has made up Foster's mind.

If he meets Housman on the battlefield in the future, he will definitely defeat him with his own hands and take his head off by the way.

However, what Foster didn't know was that Housman on the other side also had the same plan. Neither of them thought that they would become rivals again after 50 years.
