Chapter 819 Gifts
Jialan country is not going to attack, but to defend.

This news was exposed, and the major forces in the entire continent can be said to be greatly disappointed.

Originally, they thought that the empire and the Jialan country could stage a battle between dragons and tigers before the next year's war, which would add to their fun. Among them, the Gundi City State even held the idea that the empire could consume the Jialan country's war species.But at the end, they were told that the Jialan Kingdom was not preparing to attack the empire at all, but was deploying defenses on the border?

Ok.

Although Bai was happy, this situation is understandable.

Because at this stage, it is the most wrong choice for the Jialan Kingdom to attack the empire. As long as the entire territory of the empire cannot be taken before the arrival of spring, it is tantamount to declaring that the next year's war will fail without fighting.

As long as Jialan Country is a little smarter.

The most important thing to do now is to arrange the defense line and shrink the troops to survive the siege of the world coalition forces, instead of actively provoking war.

Facts have also proved that the Jialan Kingdom is quite normal and has made the choice to deploy heavy troops.

It's just that this time's behavior was so normal that countries in the mainland didn't think about it in a normal way. It wasn't until time passed that they suddenly realized that the reason why Jialan Country did this was here.

In this way, the empire is reduced to a laughing stock.

Frightened by a perfectly normal move, 160 million troops were temporarily mobilized and rushed to the border. The resources lost this time and again are astronomical, and it is inevitable not to make people laugh.

Foster wanted to retreat at this time.

Since the Jialan Kingdom is not planning to use force against them, continuing to place the army here is a waste of resources. It is better to let the army return to voluntary labor to reduce the loss of resources.

But his opinion was dismissed.

A reply letter was sent back to Foster from the imperial capital, and the head of the empire Eldir told him: "Vega Saint Laurent is cunning by nature, and he is not allowed to withdraw his troops back to the central part before the arrival of early winter."

"Oh, this Eldir."

Foster slapped the letter on the table with hatred, and called the Führer by his name.

He more or less understood that Eldir was still worried about Vega, and decided that the Jialan Kingdom was not deploying defense at all, but was preparing to attack, so he ordered him to stick to it for another three months until the arrival of early winter.

Because winter is not suitable for marching and fighting.

Especially for the offensive side, the chances of winning a war in winter are several percent lower than those in early summer and early autumn.So as long as they stick to it until early winter, it is certain that the Jialan Kingdom really has no intention of attacking.

But on the other hand.

The Jialan Army has made it clear that they don't want to attack. You are being too cautious if you wait like this. In other words, this can no longer be described as cautious, but it should be expressed more clearly as timid.

under orders.

Foster can only lead the army to work here, watching Hausmann lead the army every day, build a defense line here today, go there to bury an army tomorrow, and overthrow the entire defense line the day after tomorrow. Constructed airtight.

No matter how you look at it, it's a bit petty.

But Housman was not ashamed but proud, and led the army to jump up and down the border. At the most, he even drove all the troops to the border, which shocked Foster again. Afterwards, Foster found out that it was Housman. I'm making a fool of myself.

so that to the end.

Foster has been completely paralyzed, and he doesn't believe that Housman will launch a meaningless attack.

The strong smell of gunpowder between the two armies on the border was completely dispelled by Housman's actions.

at the same time.

After half a month, Veigar also arrived at the agreed meeting place, the far west of the Jialan Kingdom, the City of Eternal Hope.

Here once buried the last hope of the Old Kingdom.

But what I have to mention is that although the City of Eternal Hope has a poor reputation, it is a real heavy city.

This city is the closest to the Jialan Mountains. If the western countries want to invade the Jialan Empire in the coming year, it can be said that this is the only way they must pass, and it is also the place they will definitely compete for.Therefore, a whole group army is stationed here, under the account of Tanier, and a lieutenant general of the Old Kingdom is in charge of commanding.

Under heavy guard.

Veigar was even more sure that this was not a trap.

If it was really a trap, relying on the attraction of the name Old Scimitar to Veigar, it is entirely possible to set the meeting point outside the border or on the edge of the country, rather than in the absolutely safe City of Eternal Hope.

According to the agreed time.

Veigar came to a tavern with his guards.

There are mixed fish and dragons here, and there are all kinds of people. It is indeed a fairly confidential meeting place.

creak-

Opening the door of the private room, Vega and the guard walked in, and he found that the other party had been waiting for a long time in the private room.

There are three people in the private room, the middle-aged man sits in the middle, a young mage holding a staff on the left, and a girl about 15 years old on the right.

"Meru Machete, chief patriarch of Hundred Clans, see His Majesty."

When the skinny middle-aged man who claimed to be Meru saw Vega coming in, he immediately pulled the two of them to their knees, his whole body was full of humility from top to bottom, but the young magician at the side was a little reluctant Followed kneeling on the ground.

"Meru Machete?"

Veija sat on the seat instead of customers, poured a glass of juice into the glass, and then said: "Get up and talk first, I want to know what is the relationship between you and Holt Scimitar."

Meru stood up timidly.

He said humbly: "Report Your Majesty, Holt Machete is my uncle."

"Where's Holt Scimitar Man? Why don't you come to see me."

"Uncle was seriously injured more than a year ago, and died later."

"Holt Cutlass has..."

Veigar opened his mouth, and finally closed it again.

After all, the old scimitar had made great contributions to him, and he left this world before seeing his tribe become an independent country with sovereignty, which made Vega a little sad.

"Then what is the purpose of the patriarch's visit this time?"

Vega cast his eyes on Meru, after all they are relatives of the old machete, Vega's expression softened.

"To tell you the truth, this time I came here at the behest of my uncle before he died."

Meru said with a sad look in his eyes: "Uncle asked us to find a chance to bring a gift to see you before he died, and asked me to bring you a sentence..."

"What words did Holt Cutlass leave behind?"

Veigar more or less guessed some of the last words of the old machete, but asked the question knowingly.

Meru did not answer Vega's question immediately, but first put an exquisite box in front of Vega, opened it and said, "This is a gift that my uncle asked me to bring to you, and let me remind you , don’t forget the original promise.”
