Mage Veigar

Chapter 875: Anger is Hard to Calm
Half a month has passed since the last battle.

Over the past half month, the countries that fled back to the West in a panic have begun to lick their wounds and race against time to restore their strength.

And the last battle.

Apart from Vega, the loser who made a fortune, the biggest winner in the entire West should be the Principality of Baya.

Due to their absence from the war.

No soldiers were lost in the subsequent rescue operation.

Therefore, when the overall strength of Western countries was greatly weakened, the Principality of Baya inexplicably jumped to second place in the Western comprehensive national strength rankings, second only to the Free Alliance.

After all, the Free Alliance is an old country.

Even though he suffered heavy losses in the last war, it did not affect his ability to firmly occupy the number one position in the West by relying on his huge foundation.

The worst-hit country was the city-state of Gangti.

Their territory was not large to begin with, and they had always adopted the elite strategy like the Holy Dragon Kingdom. However, under the attack of the aviation corps, any elite was a live target for the war airships. This round of war directly led to the destruction of the Gangti City Kingdom like the Holy Dragon, and it was unlikely that they would be able to recover in a short period of time.

As a result, he fell from being the second most powerful military country to the bottom.

If the war continues to break out in the short term, the city-state of Gangti will have almost no soldiers available. The only force that can contribute is probably the Pope himself and a hidden trump card he has.

In fact, if the Pope himself was not a powerful man who could upgrade to the strength of a star magician at any time, coupled with historical factors, the allies would probably have abandoned him long ago.

all in all.

The Principality of Baya's behavior this time has greatly increased its reputation in the West. Some of the allies of the City-State of Gangti have completely turned to the Principality of Baya and chosen the Principality of Baya as their new support. At the same time, due to the surrender of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, Vega is temporarily unable to cross the Jialan Mountains. They directly took over the vast territory of the Holy Dragon Kingdom and became the third force in the West.

Moreover, this strength is already on par with the Freedom Alliance.

Corresponding.

The forces that had originally banded together for warmth, led by the city-state of Gangti, have become the weakest force.

If Vega is eliminated, the West will probably go to war immediately, and first destroy the useless Gangti City State. However, it is precisely because they have Vega as a common enemy that they have no other thoughts for the time being.

As a 'loser', Vega is of course paying attention to the situation in the West.

He has begun investing considerable resources and energy into rebuilding the Western intelligence network.

The first piece of information he got was the previously mentioned news that the Principality of Baya had become the second largest power in the West, and had gained the support of many allies. It also took over the vast territory of the Holy Dragon Kingdom without spending a single soldier, and the national strength had entered a stage of crazy growth.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't angry when I heard the news.

Vega stared at the former Holy Dragon Kingdom's territory on the map, the anger in his eyes almost uncontrollable.

The Principality of Baya ruined his plans and made his plan to unify Jialan fail. Now it has taken the Holy Dragon Kingdom for free and is enjoying the fruits of his victory, acting like a fisherman who has gained a profit.

Or.

From the very beginning, his plan was seen through by the Principality of Baya, which then sat on the mountain and watched the fight between the two tigers, and when the time was right, it reached out to stop the war, thereby greedily obtaining the greatest benefits from this war?
The more I think about it, the more likely it is.

Vega felt that he must have been tricked by the Principality of Baya, and ended up making wedding dresses for the Principality of Baya.

It is said that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

If it were anyone else, they would probably just endure it.

Because the war had just ended, the army was exhausted, the civilians longed for peace, and the country was unstable and full of conflicts. It was not appropriate to resort to war at this time.

In addition, the Jialan army had just suffered a defeat.

Vega was pushed to the forefront this time. With some people in the country fanning the flames, voices questioning him began to appear. If he lost again, there would be a high probability of unrest in the country. There was nothing that could be done about it.

A student who has always scored zero points suddenly gets a passing score will be praised. A student who has always scored full marks suddenly gets 90 points will of course be slapped in the face.

Western countries are obviously the former.

Their military began to regain confidence and the people began to support the government.

Veigar is obviously the latter.

A failure that could not be called a failure began to be criticized, and even the ability to fight was directly questioned.

Therefore, at this time, the best thing to do is to handle everything in a low-key manner.

Humans are forgetful creatures.

Don't worry too much. Just keep a low profile for half a year and people will calm down. After a year, basically no one will remember this incident. By that time, the military and the people will regain their confidence.

But Vega is obviously not a gentleman.

He couldn't wait for ten years, and he couldn't wait for a year either.

It's better to say that over the past ten days, Vega has been getting angrier and angrier. He doesn't want to be labeled a "working emperor" cuckold.

Moreover, in his opinion, although his side was full of contradictions and low morale, how much better could the West, which had just been besieged, be? The 50% loss of national strength had not yet been replenished.

So when it comes down to it, we're all just the same.

Since we are all similar, why should I be afraid of you?
After half a month, Vega summoned all the generals again and announced that he would use military force against the west.

This opinion was naturally opposed.

No matter from which angle you look at it, this is an unwise move and seems very impulsive.

"Everyone!"

Vega said calmly, "There is a saying in my hometown that goes 'strike while you are ill'. The Western countries have not yet recovered from the last war. Compared with the West, our situation is obviously much better. At most, there is a little problem with the confidence of the army and the people. Therefore, I think now is the best time to expand our influence to the West."

"That's what I said..."

A staff officer seemed to want to refute, because the domestic conflicts were far from being as simple as Vega said.

But he was glared at by Vega, who said unreasonably: "Since everyone has no objection, this matter is settled. As for the first target of the Western Region, I have also decided that we will start with the Principality of Baya. Please go back and make preparations early. We need to take over the Principality of Baya before winter comes and the heavy snow freezes the Jialan Mountains."

"..."

No one dared to speak and lowered their heads in silence.

Now everyone understood that Vega didn't really want to become fat in one go and destroy the entire West.

This is clearly an excuse to invade the West, but in reality they are preparing to settle accounts with the Principality of Baya.

I guess Vega is the only one who can justify taking revenge in such a high-sounding way.

Whoever tries to persuade him at this time will have to bear Vega's wrath.

Therefore, everyone wisely chose to keep silent.

After all, this is Vega's Galan Empire. In this territory, no one dares to disobey the supreme king.
