Mage Veigar

Chapter 899 Falling apart
No matter from which angle you look at it.

Vega did not show the fear he should have towards the upcoming second major encirclement and suppression.

Rather, one could tell from his expression that there was some anticipation.

It was precisely because of this that Tanier was not worried at all, because when the commander Vega was so confident, it was obvious that he had everything under control. The ones who would be in trouble were not them, but the coalition forces of various countries.

"Yes, of course I'm not worried at all."

Vega said confidently: "According to the time, what is supposed to come will soon come. Now I am curious whether the coalition forces can wait until the third major encirclement and suppression campaign arrives."

"What do you mean?"

"Of course it's rebellion!"

Vega said this with absolute certainty.

The systems that were originally implemented in the Holy Dragon Province and the occupied areas of the Principality of Baya were completely abolished after the Principality of Baya took back all the territories, and the old systems were restored.

In Vega's opinion, the Principality of Baya is seeking its own destruction.

Judging from the time now, it is estimated that the patience of the civilians has reached its limit, and the rebellion will break out in a few days. At this time, the Principality Army's attention is all focused on Vega, thus ignoring the stability of the country.

Therefore, Vega inferred this.

Within ten days, the Principality of Baya will be forced to withdraw from the Allied forces.

With the withdrawal of the second largest power in the West, the Principality of Baya, and the absence of the third largest power, the City-State of Gangti, the Free Alliance alone is naturally unable to support itself. It can be said that the alliance collapsed without being attacked.

of course.

It does not rule out the possibility that the first force, led by the Free Alliance, will forcibly support it.

But without two major forces, Vega believed that at least the pressure on the entire Star Wind City could be relieved, and it would give him the confidence to hold on until next spring, instead of seeing no hope at all like now.

The time came on the second night.

Tonight is the final preparation time. According to the prior agreement, the Western Allies will launch military action against Vega tomorrow.

The Free Alliance is preparing for battle and the soldiers are eager to give it a try.

Defeating Vega in a head-on battle is something the entire continent dreams of but is out of reach. And this thing will finally be realized tomorrow. Victory has never been so close to them.

So for Strachey, tonight was destined to be so exciting that he couldn't sleep.

Everything seems to be heading in a good direction.

But it is only an appearance. Facts have once again proved that until the last second, no one knows which side will win in the end.

Just as night falls.

A soldier came up to Strachey and reported to him, "Your Majesty, something bad has happened. We have received news that the Duchy Army's base is empty and they are rushing back to the major cities of the Holy Dragon Province overnight."

"The Principality of Baya withdrew its troops without even saying hello?"

"In fact, it's not just the Principality of Baya..."

The soldier continued, "After seeing the sudden withdrawal of troops by the Baya Principality without any reason, several countries led by the Baya Principality also unilaterally followed suit and withdrew their troops. Now, only seven countries led by us are still here."

"What a joke! Is this war going to continue?" Strachey's face looked very ugly: "What about the allies of the Gangti City-State? Although the Gangti City-State is absent, some forces headed by the Gangti City-State are not absent with it."

"Your Majesty, they also retreated overnight..."

"What on earth happened?!"

Strachey was furious. He had never thought that the seemingly unbreakable Western Alliance would be so fragile at the critical moment that it was not even as good as a blank sheet of paper. They retreated without even saying hello. Did they still take the Free Alliance seriously? If it weren't for Vega, Strachey would have wanted to declare war on the entire Western country.

"Please don't be angry, Your Majesty."

Swinburne quickly persuaded, "It is impossible for the countries to withdraw their troops without even saying hello. There must be something fishy going on. I would like to ask Your Majesty to immediately ask the intelligence department to collect intelligence. This does not rule out the possibility that Vega Saint Laurent is interfering."

A word to awaken the dreamer.

Strachey just thought that everything was the fault of the Western countries. Now, thinking about it carefully, even if there was no reason, the Western countries, especially the Principality of Baya, would not leave here without even saying hello.

And why didn't he leave earlier or later, but chose to leave at this time.

In addition, Vega Saint Laurent has always been known for his scheming, so Strachey immediately thought that it might be that Vega had done something to successfully use a trick to make their alliance fall apart.

He immediately followed the advice and sent out a large number of reconnaissance troops to investigate the real reason why the countries suddenly withdrew their troops. At the same time, he sent letters to the remaining countries that were still here, telling them to temporarily cancel the second encirclement and suppression plan tomorrow.

The nations breathed a sigh of relief when they received the letter.

Because the countries left suddenly without any reason, every king was unsure. If they did not find out the truth of the matter at this time and rashly launched a war, they would not agree even if the Free Alliance asked for it.

After several days of anxious waiting, the news finally came.

Strachey couldn't wait to open the secret letter and read it three times, with the shocked expression on his face.

"Your Majesty, what exactly happened?"

The eyes of the Night Seed Swinburne were full of curiosity. He took the secret letter and started reading it.

"How is this possible?"

Even Swinburne, who had lived for more than 1,500 years, had never heard of anything so absurd.

It turns out that there were two main reasons why the countries withdrew their troops.

The first was that a large-scale rebellion broke out in the territory that the Principality of Baya had just regained. A rebel organization called the Workers and Peasants Alliance rose up and launched an uprising in an important city under the revolutionary slogan that workers and peasants would never be enslaved.

This uprising was quickly suppressed.

Grand Duke Baya and Aiden Gary didn't even take it seriously.

However, in the following days, forces claiming to be branches of the Workers and Peasants Alliance emerged like mushrooms after rain, launching uprisings in various major cities. This trend eventually swept across the country, and finally Aiden Gary and Grand Duke Baya found that the situation was beginning to be out of control, so they could only mobilize the front-line troops to return home overnight to suppress the rebellion, and at the same time hoped that the Allied forces would provide support.

It is for this reason.

This led to the second largest force, led by the Principality of Baya in the west, being so anxious that they didn't even have time to say hello and rushed back to the country overnight to suppress the rebellion. This time the rebellion seemed to be even more fierce than what had been seen in the intelligence.

If this was the only reason, it wouldn't have surprised the two of them so much.

What really made them feel unbelievable was that the city-state of Gangti, which had been absent from the war and had always been harmless, actually sent a large number of troops to launch an aggressive war against its allies at this critical juncture.

What exactly was that idiot Carol trying to achieve?
