Mage Veigar

Chapter 442 Returning to Camp Alone
Want to drive out the imperial army.

The Air Force is a hurdle that cannot be avoided.

Only by destroying the enemy's air force can we truly seize the initiative in this war.

Now the Imperial Army is basically defenseless against Vega, but the problem is that Vega has no idea where the coordinates of the Imperial Air Force are stationed. This directly leads to Vega wanting to destroy the Imperial Air Force, but it is difficult to do so.

So what to do?
Things cannot be accomplished overnight. Since we cannot find the coordinates of where the Imperial War Airship is docked, we have to find a way to find the coordinates.

But ordinary reconnaissance troops are no longer available.

The Imperial Army's barracks are heavily guarded, and the country has the most advanced military forces among all the countries. If a reconnaissance team is rashly sent out and is caught by the Empire, it will only alert the enemy and make the Empire realize that he has actually betrayed the country.

It won’t work in secret, we have to do it openly.

Vega gritted his teeth and finally made the decision to go deep into the tiger's den.

While his status as brigadier general is still useful, Vega plans to meet with Eskar in person, and at the same time find an opportunity to find out the coordinates of the enemy's air force, and then destroy the enemy's war airships and temporary airports by surprise.

Although it is easy to say, it is not so simple to implement.

Once the fact that he betrayed the empire is exposed, he will most likely be retained in the Imperial Army, charged with treason and beheaded on the spot, because he has now revealed some suspicious points.

the first.

One of the suspicious things was that Vega did not immediately open the city gate to welcome Eskar as requested in the letter.

second.

Vega dragged his feet in capturing the city of Donbu, causing the Imperial Army to retreat step by step. His plan of waiting for the West Coast Army to collapse without a fight failed, and he was eventually forced to fight a head-on battle with the West Coast Army. He only won the victory after losing more than 5 soldiers and some war airships.

third.

There was no imperial flag flying over the city of Dunbu; only a white flag with a golden crown of the dynasty was flying.

Although this last suspicious point is insignificant, people with a keen eye will inevitably notice the abnormality, and some officers who are jealous of Vega will report it to Eskar in time.

In summary.

He has already revealed enough suspicious points, and going to the imperial camp alone now is tantamount to walking into the tiger's den.

But there is no other way to end the war as soon as possible.

If he does not destroy the empire's air force, he will always be able to defend the middle and lower reaches and will not be able to move forward. This is the most fatal point for Vega, who is eager to unify the dynasty and vigorously develop national strength.

So on the next day.

Vega put on his military uniform, brought only a few guards, and went directly to the Imperial Army's base.

"A military stronghold, no one is allowed to enter."

The guards at the garrison saw Vega coming and stopped him directly. Although Vega was wearing an imperial military uniform, the guards obviously did not let him go because of this.

And there are only a few generals in the entire army.

As a guard, they were of course required to memorize the faces of all the generals. They had never heard of a child general who was less than 1.5 meters tall, which made them instantly alert.

One of the guards even informed the captain of the guard.

Veigar didn't care. He smiled and walked towards the guard.

"Stop! What do you want to do!"

The guard nervously raised his spear and took a defensive stance.

"Don't be nervous, soldier."

Vega took out his ID as he walked and said, "This is my ID. I am affiliated with the Seventh Eastern Army Group and am a direct subordinate of your commander-in-chief, Lord Eskar. You can check its authenticity or ask the commander-in-chief."

The soldier took the ID with doubt. He saluted Vega, then took the ID to the guard captain who rushed over, and used special anti-counterfeiting methods to verify it, and finally confirmed Vega's identity.

"This certificate is genuine. He is a general of the Empire."

As the captain finished speaking, the guards saluted and let him go. Vega also relied on the skin on his body to move freely in the army. Led by a guard, he walked towards the direction of the general command room.

"I haven't been able to come back here for a year. It's really familiar."

Vega chatted with the soldiers intentionally or unintentionally: "How many troops did our country dispatch this time? Judging from the buildings and area of ​​this garrison, there must be more than 300,000."

"Of course. This time we dispatched four army groups and one air force..."

"There's actually an aviation force?"

Vega asked casually, "I saw the numbers of various troops along the way, but why didn't I see the Aviation Corps? Isn't the Aviation Corps stationed here?"

"I don't know the humble position."

The guard's eyes became alert, and he did not answer Veigar's question.

Vega also realized that he was too hasty, and quickly made amends: "Haha, it's understandable that you don't know me. I am Brigadier General Vega Kaleni who was sent to the Dynasty a year ago. During this period of time, I was ordered to harass the West Coast troops in the downstream area. Otherwise, the war on the West Coast would not have ended so quickly."

"Please forgive my ignorance."

The guard obviously didn't know Vega. After all, Vega was just a small brigadier general in the empire. In addition, he had been fighting in the dynasty for most of the year, so his exposure was almost non-existent.

It's quite ironic.

Vega is a legendary general who has terrified the West Coast Army of the Dynasty and the Kingdom Army from top to bottom. Only some high-ranking generals in the empire know him. Ordinary middle and low-level officers and ordinary soldiers basically don't know him.

Veigar was not surprised.

After all, there is a saying that goes, when people leave, the tea gets cold.

Of course, after being interrupted like this, Vega did not dare to continue asking about the Aviation Corps. Mentioning it once would not leave any impression on people, but if it was mentioned repeatedly, it would easily be noticed by those with ulterior motives.

But in simple chat.

Vega finally arrived at the command room, and after being informed by the guards, he met Eskar again.

"Report to the Chief of Staff..."

Vega pretended to realize something, and then changed his words in time: "Report to the commander-in-chief! I, the commander of the independent heavy armored brigade of the 7th Army of the Eastern Empire, Vega Kareni, pay you my highest respects."

"Hahaha--"

Eskar laughed loudly and said, "Since we last met, you are still as elegant as ever. There is no need for us to be polite. This time, we were able to take over the West Coast of the Dynasty in such a short time. I haven't had the chance to thank you properly."

"Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief is joking."

Vega quickly said politely: "This is just my job, I dare not take credit for it."

"You really don't dare to take credit for it."

Before Eskar could say anything, a major general next to him sneered and gave Vega a warning: "If you hadn't been careless the first time and allowed the West Coast Army to secretly move back upstream, we wouldn't have lost a full 20 soldiers."

"the second time!"

The major general with a sharp look in his eyes continued to speak, "If you hadn't delayed taking the city of Dunbu, we wouldn't have been forced into a decisive battle with the Dynasty's West Coast Army and lost another legion and 1/3 of the air force."

"I would like to ask your Excellency."

The young major general walked up to Vega and said condescendingly, “Are all these things the result of your carelessness or your intentional actions?!”
