Chapter 823
The city of ice and fire.

Jialan Army Headquarters.

As the commander in chief of this battle, Housman received a message from Vega. The news told Housman that the Jialan Empire had signed an alliance with hundreds of tribes in the empire, agreeing to launch an offensive for the Jialan Army at that time. portal.

The news was crucial to Housman.

Such a covert move in the northwest direction is [-]% undetectable by the empire, which means that as long as an army is sent, it can easily take down the entire northwest territory without the empire being prepared, and then point the sword directly at the center of the empire.

"As expected of His Majesty."

Housman smiled wryly.

He worked hard here for a long time, jumping up and down, but failed to dispel the enemy's vigilance, while Veigar opened up such a secret attack path in more than half a month without any effort, and it was clear at a glance which one was higher. .

"I'm going to work hard here too."

Housman looked at the map.

He divides his troops into two places, as long as he can take down the entire territory of the northeast, dominated by the cities of Kareni and Lopus, and the troops on the west bank can capture the eastern part of the empire dominated by the cities of Elchea and Xielantu, plus The entire territory of the Northwest acquired by Upper Veigar.

At that time, the three spearheads will all point to the middle of the empire.

Then the demise of the empire will become a certainty, which means that winning the empire in three months is not a distant dream, but something that is actually possible.

"It's just that this empire, when will it retreat?"

Housman was a little worried. He had clearly shown a harmless appearance, but the imperial army was still firmly stationed in the city of Kareni, and had no intention of retreating at all.

"For now, it seems that we can only wait."

Housman finally sighed, ready to continue to wait, and at the same time ordered the troops to maintain the original movement of jumping up and down, so as to continue to confuse the eyes of the imperial army.

the other side.

Vega has returned to Saint Laurent with Alicia.

For this cheap little sister, Veigar didn't develop a real brother-sister relationship, but only treated her as a bond to ensure the continuation of the contract.

of course.

Veigar didn't feel any dislike for her either.

Although the other party is only 15 years old, she did not show the rebelliousness of puberty. On the contrary, she is very obedient. If you point to the east, she will not go west. Faced with such a little girl, Vega certainly treats her with courtesy.

"Alysia, I have wronged you these few days."

Surrounded by the bonfire, Vega said to Alicia: "But don't worry, you can reach Saint Laurent in three days. This hard life of eating and sleeping in the wild will soon come to an end."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

Alicia smiled and said, "I have nothing to do with you here, please don't worry about me."

"Since you are already my younger sister, you don't have to be so polite, just call me brother."

"Yes, Your Majesty...brother."

Alysia's voice was quite gentle, and her smile was bright, but in Vega's ears, there was no emotion at all.

More than that.

Vega also saw another thing from Alysia——

fear.

Although the other party concealed it very well, Vega, who is good at observing words and expressions, can still see clearly. For so many days, Alysia has been tense and has not relaxed for a minute.

This fear eventually made Alicia fall ill.

It should be said that the tight nerves prevented Yalixia from getting a good night's sleep. Coupled with the wind and camp, and the long journey, even the soldiers were a little tired, let alone a 15-year-old girl who had never traveled far.

"How is Alicia?"

Vega asked the accompanying military doctor who was treating Alysia.

"Report Your Majesty, it's just a cold and a fever now."

The military doctor paused, and then said: "But in this case, if you continue to travel long distances, your condition may continue to deteriorate."

"I know, you go down first."

Veigar turned his gaze to another soldier: "Scout, is there any city near here?"

"It takes a day and a half to travel to the nearest city of Lierta."

"An order to rest tomorrow at the same place."

Although it took three more days to reach Saint Laurent, Vega thought about it and decided to set up camp in the wild.

He didn't want Alicia to have troubles.

After all, Alysia is the bond of the covenant, and the covenant has just been concluded. If something happens to Alysia, the covenant may be directly declared bankrupt.

"Your Majesty, yes, sorry."

Inside the tent, Alicia timidly said to Vega on the hospital bed, "Please leave me alone, I can still persist."

"Are you afraid of me?"

Veigar went straight to the point.

This sentence also made Alicia's face turn pale: "No, no, how could I be afraid of Your Majesty, Your Majesty... brother."

"It seems that Patriarch Meru has put a lot of pressure on you."

Vega said self-consciously: "If I'm not wrong, he probably asked you to work hard to become my wife?"

"You, how do you know?"

Alicia said with fear on her face, "Brother... No, Your Majesty, I didn't intend to hide it on purpose..."

"All right."

Vega waved his hand and interrupted: "I don't mean to blame you, I just want to tell you that now that you have left your father's side, I will not force you to do anything other than ensure your safety. Anything. That is to say, you are free now, you can be selfish and disobey your father's orders."

Disobedience to father's orders?

Alicia never considered such a thing.

But Veigar's words were like the whispers of the devil, tempting her to hide in hell, which sounds too tempting.

"Is this really possible?"

"Of course no problem."

Vega said straight to the point: "Your father threw you to the Jialan Empire. If there is no accident, as a bond to maintain the friendship between the two countries, he will not let you go back in this lifetime, so just throw away all scruples. Whether it is Eat, drink or have fun, no matter what you want to do, as long as you don't leave the capital Saint Laurent, I will give you the greatest degree of freedom."

"Can you really leave everything behind?"

Alicia asked again uncertainly.

"There is no problem at all, even if you want to find someone to fall in love with."

Wei Jia said with a smile: "Of course, love affairs should not be too high-profile. After all, you are the only princess of the Jialan Empire. You should pay more attention to the dignity and glory of the royal family."

"Thank you, thank you... Brother, it's completely different from what the rumors say. It turns out that you are a good person, brother."

Alicia's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

"A good guy? Hahaha."

Vega was amused by this sentence. If Alicia knew that he said so much, he just wanted to untie her heart knot, so that her illness would recover quickly, so that he would not be hindered from going back, I don’t know Will she still think so.

After thinking about it for a while, Vega bid farewell to Alicia: "Don't be too forceful, then go to rest early."

It turns out.

It is true that the heart disease still needs to be healed by heart medicine. Once the heart knot is untied, after only staying for a day, Yalixia's illness is almost healed, and she can start her journey home again.
