Chapter 720 To the Empire
"I agree to your army's request."

Veigar held hands tightly with the envoy.

Facing Coverdale's request, he really had no reason to refuse.

The first is because he wants to contain the empire, so that the empire, which already knows that he does not have a divine mage, cannot attack the developing Jialan Empire and the Jialan branch led by Qi Lisi above.

The second reason is that the empire itself is his enemy.

Now there are three forces left in the east, the first is the empire, the second is the Holy Dragon Kingdom, and the third is the Jialan Empire.

When it comes to comprehensive strength, there is no doubt that the empire ranks first, so the empire is a threshold that Vega can't get around in unifying the East no matter what.

The more chaos within the empire, the better for him.

So regardless of whether there is a written contract or not, the rebel forces must be his allies.

Now this ally invites him to fight against the empire. They not only don't want Veigar to send people, but also don't want him to pay. They just let him be there to command. How could he not agree to such a good thing.

If you win.

The Jialan Empire will have more time to prepare, and the empire will inevitably be hurt by this.

Even if you lose, it doesn't hurt.

Anyway, he used other people's soldiers and other people's resources, and he didn't feel bad when the whole army was wiped out.And he is a star shadow mage and doesn't worry about being left on the battlefield, so there is no reason to refuse Coverdale's request for help.

In addition to these two reasons, there is a third reason.

This reason makes people laugh and cry, but it is an indisputable fact——

Veigar is so boring.

Politics, economy, construction... He can't talk about all these fields, and there is no battle in the Jialan Empire. Watching military exercises occasionally can improve morale. The bandits can't ask him to take the lead, can they?

If there is no war for a long time.

Both the sense of war and the ability to fight will degenerate.

Therefore, Veigar agreed to Coverdale's request without hesitation, hoping to maintain his state through the next war, and at the same time improve his magic power and spiritual power. Even if he could not keep the rebel army, he would use this opportunity to severely damage the imperial army.

"Excuse me, when are we leaving?"

Veigar seemed impatient to go back to the battlefield, and asked the envoy this question.

"Any, anytime."

The messenger looked a little excited.

It never occurred to him that not only did he invite Vega, but he would also be able to bring Vega back to the city to report back at any time.In fact, before coming here for the second time, he had already decided that he would return without success. After all, Vega was the king, how could the king leave the capital?

It seems to have seen through the heart of the messenger.

Veija continued: "However, apart from your leader Fodel and you, no other person is allowed to know about my going to your army. Otherwise, I have the right to suspend the assistance to you at any time."

"Your Majesty understands."

The diplomat immediately gave an affirmative answer, and he immediately understood that once Vega left Saint Laurent and was discovered, the entire Jialan Empire would be in turmoil, and this matter must be concealed from others.

So on the second day.

Veigar followed the messenger to the city of war, the headquarters of the rebel army.

Vega was followed by a guard and the former commander of the empire, Hausman Christian, as well as Major General Scoro Darnay, the commander of the garrison of Xielantu who surrendered to Vega.

A group of people add up to less than fifteen people.

As for why he brought Hausmann and his former subordinate Scolo Darne, it was of course because Vega was worried about keeping them in the country.After all, the 45 imperial troops are still in the country. Although these two men have been relieved of 4/5 of the command power by Vega, as long as they raise their arms, the 45 imperial troops must be rejoined.

At that time, Shia alone may not be able to suppress it.

So the safest way is to bring these two people with you, and let Xi Ya sit in the country as a queen. With her status as the queen of the holy dynasty, and the assistants of Yiluo and Mennuo, no one dares to do anything wrong in the court. .

After setting everything up.

Veigar really started this journey of the Imperial Rebels.

Da da da--

The horseshoes slapped the bluestone road, and the crisp sound echoed, which meant that Veigar and his party finally stepped on the territory of the rebel army headquarters War City after a few days.

A dark cloak.

Under the cloak is a black mask.

It was hard to see Veigar's true identity from the outside. From a distance, he looked like a short dwarf. Coupled with his weird attire, he should have been able to attract the attention of passers-by.

But surprisingly.

Veigar didn't attract anyone's attention, and there were very few pedestrians on the road.

It wasn't until Veigar came to the gate of the rebel government that he discovered that the civilians had gathered here.

They pulled up banners, begging the rebel regime to surrender to the empire, and saw that the faces of this group of people were full of anger. If there were no troops at the door to stop them desperately, they might have been forcibly broken through.

But it can be seen.

The faces of the blocking soldiers were also full of humiliation, and they had no fighting spirit. At this time, as long as one soldier took the lead to put down their weapons, the guards would probably disperse immediately without any further resistance.

"The situation is so critical?"

Veigar said to himself with a look of sudden realization: "No wonder Foster can bear it until now and has not launched an attack. It turned out that he was going to see the rebel army break without attack. He finally accepted the surrender of the rebel army without a single soldier." .”

Veija pointed to this group of people and asked the envoy: "This group of civilians has made trouble at the door of the house. Why can't your leader directly use violent means to clean them up?"

"The lower officials don't know, the leader just said that soldiers are not allowed to use force against civilians."

The envoy's face was full of anger. If it wasn't for Coverdale's order, he couldn't help but want to make a move now.

"Coverdale still has some brains."

Veigar nodded secretly, agreeing with Coverdale more and more in his heart. The most feared thing in a battle is not an enemy, but a pig teammate. Now it seems that Coverdale doesn't look like an idiot.

If he used violent means to suppress, Veigar would definitely turn around and leave.

Because the lesson of the empire standing on the opposite side of the civilians is still vivid, not to mention that the rebel army has relied on the civilians to get to today. If they stand on the opposite side of the civilians, it is tantamount to self-destruction.

Although……

Judging from the current situation, the rebel army seems to have stood on the opposite side of the civilians. Even the soldiers have no intention of fighting, and all want to kneel down and surrender to the imperial army. The hearts of the people seem to have been captured by the empire.

but!

Veigar doesn't think that's a big deal.

Common people exist...

It has always been the easiest existence to fool.

As long as the city of war is still under the control of the rebel army, Veigar believes that there will be a way to make these civilians turn to the same hatred against the empire and regard the rebel army as the savior.
