Mage Veigar

Chapter 129: The Fall of Kareni

It's the Kingdom Army!

Why did the Royal Army appear at the entrance of the air-raid shelter?
In just a moment, Vega guessed the whole story.

As the only team for city security, Bruno of the Law Enforcement Bureau must have handed over the layout of the entire city to the Kingdom Army. While the Kingdom Army sent out war airships for magical bombing, it also sent out some war airships carrying soldiers to land inside the city. After all, without air superiority, it would be easy for the Kingdom Army to do anything they wanted.

Isn't the Royal Army afraid of being counterattacked by ground forces?

First of all, this is simply impossible. This raid was unexpected, and the Imperial Army did not expect to lose air superiority. The ground forces may have been severely damaged by the magic bombing and could not mount an effective counterattack.

second.

What Vega fears most now is that the Kingdom Army's magic bombing will cover the Third Army's headquarters, the trial building, the government building, the Third Army's aviation force... these most important locations.

If the first three locations were bombed by magic, the command system of the entire Kaleni City would be completely paralyzed. The fourth location was where the war airships of the entire Third Army were deployed. If that was also destroyed...

The entire army will completely lose air superiority!

In modern warfare, the only single anti-aircraft force is the wind magician, which is not only inefficient but also has little effect. The only thing that can fight against the war airship is the war airship. Whichever side loses the war airship first will lose air superiority.

"Captain? Captain!"

The adjutant woke up Vega, who was frowning and thinking, and said, "Captain, it seems that the enemy has discovered us. Should we retreat now or confront them head-on?"

Vega did not answer.

He glanced behind him and found that his team members were staring at him with hatred in their eyes, as if they wanted to eat the Kingdom Army soldiers approaching them alive. However, they did not act impulsively, nor did they put forward their own ideas. Instead, they waited for Vega's orders.

"In that case."

Vega licked his lips and said, "Let's fight. Let's let these bastards of the Kingdom Army know that even if they lose air superiority, the Imperial Army is no match for them."

Raise your right hand.

When the two soldiers of the Kingdom Army walked a certain distance away, Vega lowered his right hand.

The remaining less than 40 team members understood what he meant and immediately rushed towards the two royal army soldiers.

The two soldiers reacted quickly. When they saw Vega's troops, they immediately turned around and tried to flee.

However, Vega's troops were composed of professionals, and these two soldiers were just ordinary people. They could not be faster than the pursuit of the professionals, and they were separated from their heads and bodies in less than 5 seconds.

The noise here alarmed the Kingdom Army near the air-raid shelter.

Almost in an instant, about 120 kingdom soldiers rushed over here. Faster than them were several medium-sized fireballs. It was obvious that this was a level 1 fire magic. Each fireball not only had the power of a grenade, but also flew very fast.

"retreat!"

Vega gave the order immediately.

He originally thought that only a group of ordinary soldiers landed here, but he didn't expect that the ones guarding the air-raid shelter were actually a group of professionals, a magician and several ordinary soldiers. It seems that the Kingdom Army has already anticipated that the remnants of the Imperial Army, who were confused by the magic bombing, would want to go to the air-raid shelter as soon as possible.

This is basically just waiting for something to happen!

Vega realized the seriousness of the matter. This time, the Kingdom Army's attack had probably been planned for several years, otherwise it would have been impossible to cover all aspects and not even let go of the Imperial Army's only chance of survival.

Originally, Vega hoped that the magic bombing would be over and the Imperial Army could organize an effective counterattack.

But now it seems that it is good enough that the Imperial Army was not wiped out by the Royal Army's airborne troops. What's the point of talking about counterattack force? The general command is probably paralyzed now because it is not receiving any orders at all.

Da da da--

Like a headless fly, Vega led his troops to hide from place to place, and finally got rid of the pursuing troops after more than 10 minutes. The good thing was that they were a group of professionals.

If it were an ordinary team, it would probably end up being wiped out.

"Whoohoo-"

Vega took a few deep breaths and looked up at the sky.

He discovered that airships were launching magic bombardments towards the periphery with the core control area of ​​the crystal hub as the center. Could it be that they were going to plow the entire Kalini?
The more I think about it, the more likely it is.

With no other options, Vega and his troops temporarily took refuge in the basement storage room of a large store.

Vega originally went to the air-raid shelter with the intention of meeting up with the rest of the troops.

However, the air-raid shelter has been occupied by the Royal Army's airborne troops, and it is unlikely that there will be any soldiers of the Imperial Army among them except civilians.

What to do now?
Vega took off his military cap in annoyance without even wiping the stains off his face.

The general trend is the general trend.

The Kingdom Army's divine soldiers descended from the sky. They could certainly hold out until the magic bombing was over, but how could they resist the Kingdom Army's airborne troops after the bombing was over? They would accept the surrender of ordinary troops, but not magicians and professionals.

As for the reinforcements on the front line?

Don't be ridiculous. The war on the front line has probably already begun. The ground forces of the Kingdom Army have probably tied down the Imperial Army's forces, and without orders from the headquarters, they are probably extremely confused about whether to fight or defend.

lost.

Vega knew clearly that the war had been lost at this point.

When Kareni fell, the headquarters was paralyzed, the supply lines were cut off, and air supremacy was lost, it meant that the entire Third Army had been pushed to the edge of the cliff.

Soldiers are valuable and quick.

No one is to blame for the failure of this war.

The only thing to blame was that the Kingdom Army’s attack speed was too fast, so fast that the Imperial Army didn’t even have a chance to react. In just a few hours, all the Imperial Army’s forces in the city of Kareni were destroyed.

After this battle, a great country rose.

They used the most powerful spy system in the mainland to lay out for several years, and under the circumstances of internal and external difficulties, they tore up the armistice agreement and brazenly launched a war, and then used the victory of the first war to gain more support from the people, raise more war funds, and roll a bigger snowball...

Clenched fists.

Vega was unwilling to die here.

He had just obtained a surname, became a magician, and was about to reach the pinnacle of life with his own abilities, but now he was told that the entire Kareni was going to be finished, and his surname was no longer a symbol of glory, but a symbol of shame.

Decided.

Instead of sitting here and waiting to die, hiding like a rat in a sewer, it is better to struggle hard.

Vega put his military cap back on.

The direction his eyes turned to was the air-raid shelter they had just escaped from.

It takes strength to struggle, and both individual and group strength can be obtained there. Although that place is quite dangerous, Vega feels that it is more dangerous to just sit there and wait for death.
