Mage Veigar

Chapter 523: Empire Foundation
Since ancient times, man proposes, God disposes.

No one dares to predict the success or failure of any large-scale war before it begins.

This time, Vega was not confident that he could win the war, because this war was not like the small-scale fights in the previous ones. If you wanted to destroy an entire country, then that country would certainly not sit there and wait for death.

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

The empire has not yet died, and the previous defeats were not enough to cause any serious damage to the empire.

It's entirely conceivable.

As the largest country on the continent, when it comes to the edge of the cliff of life and death, it will not only use all its strength to fight you to the death, but it may even burst out amazing potential and turn defeat into victory.

Not to be alarmist.

Although the history of the Empire is not as long as that of the Holy Dynasty, the Empire has always been able to survive every world war. Vega does not believe that the Empire relies on "luck".

Once or twice is fine.

But being able to become the victor every time is not just a matter of luck.

Therefore, Vega believes that in addition to the obvious military strength, the empire must have hidden so many tricks up its sleeve that it would make one's scalp tingle. These "tricks" may not be exposed in normal times, but when a full-scale war breaks out, these trump cards will be turned out at any time in the war. This is the terrifying aspect of the foundation of a great power.

Therefore, Vega did not dare to be confident this time.

At this time, if you are still blindly confident that you can control the overall situation and win the war, that is not confidence at all, but something called "arrogance". This kind of thing will only make the commander dizzy and drive him to extremes.

This is a war with no certainty.

But Veigar had no choice. It was logical that the Empire was the first stumbling block and the biggest obstacle to the rise of the Holy Dynasty. Once this obstacle was removed, the road ahead would be smooth. As long as this obstacle was not removed, no one would dare to say who would be the winner in the end of this war, and Veigar was no exception.

It turned out that Vega's guess was correct.

The foundation accumulated by the empire is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine. Not to mention anything else, the command level of its officers is better than that of all other countries.

In the entire Jialan Continent, only the Empire has something like a war land.

Every year, the Central Military Academy sends a large number of military talents to various troops across the country. These talents are many times stronger than the novice officers of various countries who can only talk about military affairs on paper.

This is all thanks to the fact that Celis killed a certain number of senior officers before leaving the empire, otherwise the current situation would be even more serious and the chances of the Allied Powers winning would become even slimmer.

Besides.

The empire has the largest number of vassal states and the most developed military industry.

These vassal states and military industries have accumulated countless war resources for the empire over the years.

……

Therefore, when the continent united to attack, the imperial military held a meeting.

In the meeting hall of the Imperial Central Military Department.

The head of the empire sat on the main seat: "Everyone, I repeat again, this war is no longer the minor fight of the past. The continental countries, led by the Holy Dynasty, are determined to destroy the 8,000-year foundation of our empire. It is absolutely impossible for me to save the entire empire alone. This time, you all need to go all out!"

"Report to the Führer!"

The Minister of Logistics of the Imperial Central Military Department said: "The government system has opened up all war emergency reserves to our army. Our army can mobilize 4 million troops at any time."

This is the confidence of the empire. With a population of billions, the empire has a regular army of more than three million, and nearly ten million in reserve. The economic strength accumulated over countless years allows them to arm a four million-strong army at any time.

Before and after this, OnePlus is a 700 million-strong force!

No one except the Free Alliance can match this strength.

The predecessor of the United Kingdom was formed by the union of hundreds of principalities, which was roughly equivalent to the later model of the Baya Principality. Therefore, the domestic society was always turbulent, and the domestic economy was naturally not ideal. Although they also had a large number of reservists and officers, unfortunately they did not have enough war reserves to arm the soldiers.

Not to mention the Holy Dynasty.

Although the economic strength has always been among the best, the Holy Dynasty is full of nepotism and backward talent selection methods. It does not even have a formal military academy, and its military industry relies almost entirely on imports. Therefore, even though the Holy Dynasty has a large number of reserve forces, it does not have enough armaments to lead them, let alone enough officers to manage the army. After being invaded by the kingdom, even the economic reserves were used for post-war reconstruction.

"Report to the Führer."

The second report from the Central Military Department’s Personnel Director said: “Invitation letters have been sent to retired or transferred middle and senior military officers, including 17 five-star generals, 59 lieutenant generals, 103 major generals, 189 brigadier generals… It is initially estimated that the formation of the new army and the restoration of combat effectiveness can be completed within one year.”

"I'll only give you 10 months."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

The personnel director had just sat down when the intelligence director of the Central Military Department stood up again: "Our department has sent envoys to the Grand Duchy of Degras, the Federal Democratic Republic of Jiaweisi, the City of Saint Di, and 11 other major countries west of the Jialan Mountains to persuade them to declare war on the Free Alliance. Now three major countries have reached an alliance with us and are just waiting for the war to start."

"not enough!"

The head of the empire looked stern. "I don't care what means you use. This time, we must drag all the major forces in the Jialan Continent into this. No one can stay out of this. We can only have a glimmer of hope if we can stir up the water enough."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

"..."

One by one, the empire's hidden cards were revealed.

Making friends with distant countries and attacking nearby ones has been the empire's long-standing strategy.

In fact, the empire had long been determined to unify the continent, so its layout in the entire Jialan continent was profound. Even with the big countries to the west of the Jialan Mountains with whom it could not communicate in the same language, the empire was secretly exchanging information with them.

In this regard, the Free Alliance is far worse than the Empire.

Of course, it's not the Free Alliance's fault for not wanting to do it. After countless wars, the Empire has absolute dominance in the East. The former great powers in the East have been almost destroyed, leaving only the United Kingdom and the Holy Dynasty. This place is not like the west of Jialan, because the Free Alliance's combat effectiveness is insufficient, resulting in a situation of division among warlords.

If Veigar had never appeared.

Who knows, after a few hundred years, the empire will have easily unified the land east of Galan and will be eyeing the hundreds of countries in the west.

At the end of the meeting.

It was the Chief of Staff of the Imperial Central Military Staff who expressed his opinion.

It is important to know that the Central Military Staff Group is hailed as the brain of the empire by countries on the mainland. Their opinions can often drive the overall situation and forcibly change the course of the war. It is also the most watched point in every meeting.

This time they lived up to everyone's expectations and pointed out the way forward.

Rebellion against the Kingdom.
