Mage Veigar

Chapter 769 The Reason for the Battle

The blood dyed the city of Gasili red.

The death of more than 300,000 people cast a thick shadow over the entire city.

In Vega's opinion, Augustus issued the most wrong order.

This order first put the civilians of Gasili City and the Holy Dragon Army on opposite sides, and then made the soldiers of the entire army hate Augustus, because it was Augustus who asked them to kill the unarmed civilians.

until now.

Everyone in the entire city of Gasili does not believe in any racial equality treaty from the bottom of their hearts.

This is like a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken.

How can we convince soldiers and civilians that an officer who can casually order a massacre will abide by such a treaty? They should have realized that rules were never made for fairness, but to protect the interests of the makers.

Why would human soldiers serve the dragon race?

It is simply because they believe in the racial equality treaty that the Asian dragon race has been promoting. When the racial equality treaty is no longer believed by the soldiers and even basic human rights cannot be guaranteed, why should they continue to serve the Asian dragon race?

This seed took root and sprouted in the hearts of the soldiers.

Although no one raised this question, and no one rebelled against Augustus on the spot, the entire army did not have the determination to continue fighting. Because helping foreign races to massacre their own people was definitely a shame that could not be washed away by going to hell.

at this time.

If a highly respected officer were to make a call, the Holy Dragon Army would probably turn against them immediately.

Unfortunately, Vega's spies did not make it to the top of the Holy Dragon Army.

Therefore, Vega could only sigh in despair at this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but the conditions for victory were already in place, it would only take a little more time and effort, and would not have much impact on the overall situation.

Time comes the next day.

Today is the day when the Dragon Slayer Organization will have a decisive battle with the Holy Dragon Army.

So far, the death toll of civilians has exceeded 500,000, and the entire city has fallen into great despair. They are looking forward to the Dragon Slayer Organization standing up like a hero to save them.

Thousands of calls.

At this most appropriate time and node, the Dragon Slayer Organization led by Vega stood up.

They raised the slogan that human beings would never be enslaved and gathered a full four million people to advance towards the Holy Dragon Army's front line to expel civilians.

dong dong dong-

The huge footsteps stepped on the earth, and the accumulated water on the ground was shaking slightly.

Today is a rainy day.

The rain was not heavy, just right.

Through the drizzle, the soldiers on the Holy Dragon Army's defense line were ready for battle.

They had received orders to be stationed here long ago, and every soldier knew clearly that their opponents today were unarmed civilians. The high-ranking sub-dragons, under the pretext that the civilians of Gashili City were disobeying orders, ordered them to kill these people.

What a high-sounding excuse.

The soldiers did not want to attack these civilians, and they also wanted a hero at this moment.

A hero who stood up and led them in rebellion against the Holy Dragon Army.

But after waiting for a long time, the hero did not show up, and the footsteps of four million civilians were getting closer and closer.

Boom boom boom!
Everyone's heartbeat began to speed up, and they saw each other's opponents.

"Humanity will never be slaves!"

After shouting an angry slogan, the civilians launched an attack on the Holy Dragon Army.

What slogan should the Holy Dragon Army shout to boost morale at this time?

Long live the Holy Dragon Kingdom?
It's a pity that no one can shout out, why do they want to participate in this war? Until now, there are still soldiers who can't find the reason to fight this war.

Having no justification for the attack is the most taboo thing in marching and fighting.

Augustus made this other fatal mistake. So when the war broke out, although countless civilians were killed and injured by the attacks of magicians and professionals, the number of professionals and magicians was small after all, and their magic power and mental strength were also limited. After suffering several times the casualties, it was the civilians who gained the upper hand.

The ants kill the elephant.

In particular, we must not underestimate a group of homeless civilians who are forced into desperate situations.

"Kill, in order to survive, for the sake of homeland!"

"Humanity will never be slaves!"

"Get the Asian dragon species out of our Gaxili City."

"..."

The war entered a white-hot stage, and both sides became anxious in front of the battle line.

Civilians are still civilians after all. Even if they have a slight advantage in the regular army's formation, they cannot break the opponent's square formation. Of course, the Holy Dragon Army will not gain any advantage either.

Because civilians kept coming.

They had no energy to advance the front line and could only defend passively.

The war continues.

As time went on, the death toll of civilians continued to rise. For the unarmed civilians, there was really no other way except to maintain their offensive through numbers.

Vega, standing on the commanding heights, witnessed all of this.

Make bricks without straw.

Although Vega also wanted to avoid the deaths of organization members, after all, the fewer the deaths, the more it would prove the greatness of the organization and the wisdom of him as the leader, but he really had no other way to achieve a greater result with just a little effort.

Because guerrilla warfare is not an independent tactic.

This kind of warfare was destined from the very beginning to return to the final frontal battle, and the way to win the frontal battle was to rely on a large number of people and constantly use guerrilla warfare to cause psychological fatigue to the enemy.

This is indeed a war that requires the use of numbers.

Therefore, Veigar stood on the commanding heights and watched all this quietly, turning a blind eye to the pain, wailing, blood...

These cruel scenes were already commonplace to him.

In his eyes, these people are nothing more than chess pieces. Now he is a player sitting on the chessboard, quietly waiting for the situation he has arranged so far to move towards victory. Only by keeping a detached mentality can he coordinate the overall situation.

So Vega waited for five hours.

The Holy Dragon Army finally showed signs of decline and began to lose control.

"Hold it! Hold it!"

"Magician, release the magic for me, professionals, charge forward!"

The front-line commander saw that the resistance of the defense line was declining, and shouted anxiously. He received an order from the military headquarters in the rear that as long as the defense line was there, the people would die, and if the defense line was destroyed, the people would die. The military order did not allow him to retreat a single step.

But at this time.

A wounded soldier, who was carried down from the front line on a stretcher by a medical soldier, with a bloody abdomen and about to die, passed by the front-line commander. He suddenly grabbed the front-line commander's arm with strength that no one knew where he came from.

He looked at the front-line commander with hope.

It's like a last glimmer of light.

Lying on the stretcher, he said something to the commander, which was not very loud, but the people around him heard it clearly:

"Master, please tell me, what are we fighting for?"
