Mage Veigar

Chapter 689 Rebels

Northwestern part of the empire.

Rebel headquarters war city.

Ever since the last battle in which Vega annihilated the coalition forces of the Western nations, Coverdale has been in high spirits recently.

Because his decision to retreat last time coincided with the strategy adopted by the Free Alliance and the City-State of Gangti, he was recognized by the two countries as a force with great potential, so a contract was reached and he now has the support of both countries.

In other words.

During this period, the rebels have received support from the alliance and the city-state in the form of a large amount of arms and resources.

Endless funds and endless armaments.

All of this made Coverdale feel like he was in a dream. After all, a few months ago he had to rely on an army that was several times larger than the Imperial Army to crush the enemy to death. With the support of the two countries, he might now be able to compete with the Imperial Army.

"I still have to thank Vega Saint Laurent."

Although Vega once gave him infinite fear, this time he really helped him. Just by running away, he became the second winner of this battle.

But Coverdale didn't rejoice too soon.

He understood this was a deal.

The Free Alliance and the City-States supported him in fighting against the Empire and tying down the entire East, and he obtained the most scarce resources, new weapons, and even formed three air forces. All of this showed that he had become a pawn of the West.

But what about the chess pieces?
As long as he can end the empire's corrupt regime, he would not hesitate to become a pawn, even if it means giving up his dignity and becoming a running dog of the West, because history is always written by the victors.

And he never considered himself a running dog of the West.

He is a poisonous snake!
After using Western resources to strengthen himself and destroying the empire, he will sooner or later bite back at the West and let the Western people see that he, Coverdale, is not inferior to those stupid generals of the empire.

There is indeed no misunderstanding.

Although the West signed a contract with him and supported him, it did not mean that the West believed that Coverdale was stronger than the Empire and could overthrow the Empire's rule.

Quite the opposite.

The West believed that Coverdale was too weak, so weak that if the Empire changed its attitude towards civilians, his rebel army would be destroyed overnight. That was why they supported him, hoping that he could hold on a little longer.

I really just hope he holds on longer.

The two countries didn't even think that Coverdale had the possibility of destroying the empire, so their greatest hope for him was to hold on a little longer.

"I was underestimated."

Coverdale grinned: "Facts will always speak louder than words, just look forward to that day."

creak-

Coverdale pushed open the door of the conference room, and a group of officers saluted in a formal manner. Unfortunately, compared with the military meetings in the empire, this place was like children playing house, there was a world of difference.

But Coverdale didn't care.

He grinned and sat on the main seat.

If there are too many instruments, the performance will seem messy.

His idol is Vega, so he wants to emulate Vega and use the wisdom of one person to fight against the wisdom of a country. So it doesn’t matter whether these officers can make useful suggestions. He has only one requirement - execution.

As soon as I sat down, the adjutant came up.

The adjutant placed a letter in front of him: "Chief, this morning the envoy of the Jialan Empire delivered a letter."

"Jialan Empire?"

Coverdale picked up the letter with some excitement, and looked at it over and over again for a while as if it were a treasure before he chose to open it.

He likes this feeling.

Because receiving Vega's letter was a very important sign for him. It marked that he had gone from being an unknown rebel force to officially entering the vision of all the forces in the Jialan Continent, and also stepped onto the international war stage that he had always dreamed of.

Regardless of whether the big countries recognize it or not.

Although the Holy Dynasty has fallen from the altar, the five words "Vega Saint Laurent" have never left the center of the world. Every move of Vega will inevitably affect the direction of the world war.

now--

The child under the spotlight finally extended an olive branch to him, the unknown person off the stage.

Coverdale read the letter twice, with an ecstatic expression on his face.

How can I not be excited?

How can I not be happy.

The most powerful commander, the most famous general on the continent, the devil who played with people's hearts... asked him something in the letter.

"Are you interested in inflicting a heavy blow to the Imperial Army?"

Is there any need to think about this answer?

No need, absolutely no need. He slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Order the entire army to march to the central region and aim at the capital!"

No need to hesitate.

The Imperial Army was his enemy. The purpose of the rebel army's existence was to overthrow the Empire's regime and establish a new local regime that could bring the Empire to a higher level. Therefore, he would agree to any invitation that was unfavorable to the Empire.

Second.

He had just received aid from two Western countries, and now he needed to achieve some results. Only by showing results to investors could he get more and more investment. Therefore, Vega's invitation coincided with his wishes.

Vega had anticipated this, so he chose to cooperate with the rebels.

Now the rebels have started a war again, advancing straight into the center of the empire from the City of War. If he suddenly attacks the eastern part of the empire and captures the cities of Erkia and Shelantu in the east, Vega doesn't believe that Foster will have time to waste in the east.

Besides.

Vega ordered Silis to attack the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

This is enough to force the Holy Dragon Kingdom to withdraw its troops.

Of course, with the quality of the Holy Dragon Army, they could easily ignore Silis, but without the Imperial Army, with only the 50 Holy Dragon Army in the east, Vega is sure to make them remember the fear of being dominated by the white flag with a golden crown.

conspiracy.

Plus an open conspiracy.

Vega has used both of them this time, showing his determination to conquer the East Coast.

At this time, Foster on the East Coast and the 500,000 troops in the eastern part of the empire were unaware of anything.

Needless to say about the East Coast, Foster and Augustus still believe that Vega, who possesses the Divine Mage, will take the initiative to attack them, so that they can test whether the Divine Mage exists and whether the method of fighting against the Divine Mage is feasible.

Attention should now be directed towards the eastern part of the empire.

There were 500,000 imperial troops deployed in the eastern part of the empire. These 500,000 troops had been trying to capture the west coast, but were delayed by Ilo and Menno near the dynasty border.

Later, Vega defeated the coalition forces of various countries.

Out of fear, these 500,000 troops hastily withdrew from the west bank and are now stationed inside their own border, watching the battle situation and waiting for orders from their superiors. Therefore, they have not yet withdrawn to the city of Erkia.

and this.

This is great news for Vega.
