Chapter 855: Temptation of Loyalty

In fact.

Not at all as Meru Scimitar imagined, for the Jialan Kingdom, the existence of the Hundred Clans United Kingdom is a thorn in the flesh.

Contrary.

Because compared to the powerful Jialan Empire, the United Kingdom of the Hundred Races is as weak as an ant.

If Vega really wants to destroy the Hundred Ethnic United Kingdom, so many don't, one group army, one aviation regiment, and one high-level armed force force are enough to wipe out the Hundred Ethnic United Kingdom several times back and forth.

Other words.

The two are not in the same order of magnitude at all.

Just as a lion doesn't fight an ant, Vega doesn't intend to attack a force that is not even as good as an ant, so after receiving a letter from the United Kingdom asking for help, Vega thought of supporting rather than watching the other side be annexed.

Of course, this also includes the geographical location of the United Kingdom, which happens to be one of the breakthroughs of the Western countries, which makes him have to send troops to block this breakthrough.

In Vega's plans.

This war is mainly a defensive war, because the war situation in the east has just stabilized, and the domestic contradictions have not yet been resolved in a short period of time, so the top priority at the moment is to block this Western offensive, and wait for the situation to stabilize in the past few years, and then counterattack the West.

Since you want to defend, you can't do without the moat of the Jialan Mountain Range.

The Jialan Mountains straddle the north and south, cutting off the east and west, and are a super-large mountain range that divides the Jialan continent.

Whether the East attacks the West or the West attacks the East, there is no way to avoid this mountain range.

Along this mountain range, there are countless breakthroughs.

Empires, kingdoms, dynasties, vassals...... And the major powers of the West have built cities, checkpoints, and fortresses in the places where they are most likely to be breached...... Used to defend against each other's attacks.

As long as the level exists.

Then it is impossible for the east and west sides to easily attack each other's territory.

Now the East is unified by the Jialan Empire.

So, of course, the pressure of defense is enormous.

If in the past, if the West wanted to invade the East on a large scale, then it would definitely concentrate its forces in one place, concentrate its firepower to break through one of the checkpoints, and set foot in the territory of the East.

But now it's different.

After learning that Vega has war seeds, of course, they can't gather all their armies together and let Vega use war seeds to take advantage of them, so it must be that each country divides its troops and invades the east by attacking on multiple fronts.

This method is used to restrain the war.

There are only two types of war, that is, they can only deal with two of them, and as for where to use them, they can only be left to fate.

Therefore, the Jialan Empire needs to defend almost all the important levels.

This means that although it seems that the army of the Jialan Empire is extremely powerful, with five million people, it is actually a bit difficult to defend the entire Jialan Mountain Range.

But five million is barely enough.

As long as the checkpoint is firmly occupied and the enemy does not dare to gather together, then Vega is 50% sure that the Western countries will be kept out.

But just as Vega was about to send troops to support the Hundred Kingdoms, he received a secret letter from Gilis.

She is in charge of intelligence work throughout the empire and abroad, and thanks to her outstanding talents, the intelligence system has actually infiltrated some Western countries. Although it is only a few small countries, such as the Freedom Alliance, which cannot be infiltrated, it is now able to bring a lot of information to the Jialan Empire.

And this one is defined as top-secret information.

This successfully attracted Vega's attention.

He pushed Meru Machete's letter aside and took a hard look at the message.

What he didn't expect was that the information about Chillis was actually about Meru Scimitar.

It was a letter from Meru Scimitar to the Western nations to prove his innocence, detailing the circumstances of the matter and repeatedly stating that he had offered the contract to confuse Vega Saint Laurent and convince him of his loyalty, rather than betraying the Western nations.

Looking at the letter, Vega's brow furrowed more and more.

I was afraid that Meru Scimitar never dreamed that the letter he had tried to explain to the Western countries would fall into Vega's hands. If the risk of exposure is only 1% if a letter of explanation is sent to one country, then a total of 20 letters of explanation are sent to nearly 20 countries at the same time, and the risk of exposure increases exponentially.

The intelligence network of the Jialan Empire today.

Getting your hands on one of the twenty letters was a breeze.

Meru Machemitar obviously doesn't pay any attention to these details, and he doesn't know that success or failure is often in the details.

At this time, Vega, who had read the letter, fell into deep thought.

Is this Meru Machetar loyal to him or to the West?

Because even if he got this letter, it may also be an act of Meru Scimitar to confuse the West, intending to break into the West again for the sake of Jialan.

To be honest, Vega still didn't believe that Meru Scimitar was planning to sacrifice his only daughter.

Although it is said to be the most ruthless emperor's family, the old scimitar, the emperor, only has one son and one daughter.

Of course, it's not okay to be defenseless.

Vega had become suspicious of Meru Machete.

Therefore, Vega decided to use some means to test Meru Machete's loyalty.

The simple solution is to cancel the support plan and wait for Meru Machete to come to you.

If Meru Scimitar confesses about this letter of explanation by then, then it proves that he really intends to blend in with the enemy for the sake of Jialan's brains.

If you still haven't confessed the letter of explanation......

Then it can be directly proved that Meru Scimitar's letter of explanation to the West is sincere, and he has been loyal to him on the surface before, but has rebelled against him behind his back.

Time flies.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past half a month, Vega has neither replied to the United Kingdom of the Hundred Tribes, nor has he sent any reinforcements, as if he has not received Meru Scimitar's request at all, which makes Meru Scimitar, who is ready to be a 'lackey', completely panic.

He has lost the trust of the West.

Once Vega doesn't think about the old feelings, then his kingdom of the hundred tribes will be completely finished.

Ignoring anything else, he sent a letter to Vega again asking for help, and this time in the letter, his tone was extremely low, and he behaved as a vassal more vassal than a vassal state.

However, in the letter, Meru Machete still does not mention the previous letter of explanation sent to the West.

Then now it is possible to make a judgment, this Meru Machete has long been hidden.

Vega's eyes flashed with murderous aura.
