The rebels' way to victory is nothing more than two things.

The first is that they have an endless supply of troops backed by civilians, although these sources are not even as good as cannon fodder, but they are superior in number, as long as they are sent to death, they are enough to resist the attacks of the imperial army again and again.

Of course, this alone is not enough.

Because of the existence of civilians, as soon as they see that the situation is not right, they are as timid as rats and will flee and retreat without permission.

Therefore, the second way to win is the rebel leader 'Coverdale' himself.

It is precisely because of him as the head of the sheep that the sheep can fight to the death regardless of their lives.

Before coming to the rebels, Vega had wondered why the rebels could use their lives to win in one war after another, without the slightest hint of collapse, until now he knew that the personal charm of the rebel leader Coverdale was the most important weapon to win in one war after another, and this person just stood there as a banner of victory.

But Coverdale was a man, not a god, after all.

Even gods have fallen, not to mention that the predecessor of Coverdale is not even a low-level military officer as a mage?

As the head of the flock, he bears the greatest pressure and risk in every war.

The Imperial Army must have wanted to get rid of it a long time ago, but Coverdale, as a spiritual pillar, was too heavily guarded, and the assassinations ended in failure, which brought the war to this point.

A man stumbles, and a horse stumbles.

After a month-long war, this spiritual pillar of Coverdale finally fell recently.

In the last battle, a powerful shadow mage broke through to him and dealt him a blow to the abdomen, and he fell to the ground in full view of everyone. Although he stood up a few minutes later and won the war, and when he returned, the rebel officials announced to the civilian population that he had recovered, Vega, as an informed person, knew that the situation was not optimistic.

"The next war, can it still be fought?"

Vega glanced at the pale, lying on Coverdale, and then asked the doctor the question.

The doctor glanced at Coverdale and saw that Coverdale nodded, and then said: "Although that blow is not enough to kill, but the magic left in the body of the Shadow Mage in the leader's body is eroding the leader's internal organs all the time, if the leader starts to recuperate from today, relying on his own resistance and proper exercise, it will be enough to consume the mana in ten years." ”

The doctor paused.

Then he sighed and said, "But strenuous exercise will increase the load on the body, which will contribute to the erosion of the body by magic." If the leader continues to fight the war as before, I am afraid that he will not live for five years. ”

"That is, Coverdale is not incapable of participating in the war?"

Vega grasped the key point in it, and not exerting too much physical strength does not mean that it cannot consume physical strength.

The doctor nodded and said, "It is true that the Lord Leader can participate in the war, but once the physical exertion is excessive, the great pain caused by the magic eroding the body is enough to make people faint, if you want to participate in the war no matter what, please do not exceed three hours." ”

"What else?"

Vega asked in detail.

The doctor thought for a moment, then turned to Coverdale and said, "You probably won't be able to get out of bed for a month due to the damage to your internal organs, and this month is the peak of the active spell erosion, no matter how painful it is, the leader will need to persevere with perseverance. Since the timing of mana erosion is unpredictable, it is recommended that you have your body shackled this month to prevent self-harm. ”

The voice had just fallen.

Coverdale's already pale face became like a blank sheet of paper, accompanied by a bean-sized cold sweat sliding down, the nails of his hands were even embedded in the flesh, and the bloodshot eyeballs made people look creepy.

Coverdale tilted his head, mouth open as if he wanted to howl in pain.

But he knew that he must not shout in such a place, and if there were rumors, it was very likely that the whole army would collapse directly. So he forcibly held back the great pain, tears dripping uncontrollably down his cheeks from his widening eyes.

The pain lasted for half an hour.

It was only now that Vega finally understood that it was not a fuss for the doctor to keep Coverdale restrained for 24 hours.

As if there had been a great battle for several days and nights, Coverdale weakly said to Vega: "Your Majesty, I have surprised you, and the doctor, I have worked hard for you. Please don't spread the word about this matter. ”

"Of course, there is no problem. ”

Vega nodded and said, "But what are you going to do in the next war?" Judging from the current situation, the rebel army has lost your first soldier, and I am afraid that it will be crushed by the imperial army at the touch of a button. ”

"I will be involved in the next war. ”

Coverdale took a deep breath and said, "Although I have always regarded you as an idol and have been imitating you, and I hope to make myself look like a strong man by imitating you, it is only now that I deeply understand that even if I have exhausted my life's energy, I will not be able to imitate you." ”

With a mournful voice.

Coverdale said with some bitterness: "It turns out that I have never been a strong man, and I am destined to be a strong man like you, but even so, I will continue to fight with the only way I have, which belongs to the weak." ”

Boom Boom Boom –

Magic roared, and the Imperial Army keenly seized the moment of Coverdale's injury and started the war again.

Gritting his teeth, Coverdale got out of bed without hesitation, put on his combat uniform, picked up his weapon and walked out.

"The rebels, at last, are going to lose. ”

Vega sighed, this is reality and not a hero's biography after all, some things are not with perseverance, you can overcome the disease and persist to the end, so the best chance of this battle is that Coverdale will fall and the rebels will be defeated.

"Your Majesty, will you sit idly by?"

Hausman squinted his eyes and smiled: "The fall of the rebel army at this time is not good news for the Jialan Empire, even if Coverdale wants to lose, I'm afraid you won't let him lose this war." ”

"Lord Hausman, you're probably the last person you want Coverdale to lose. ”

Vega smiled, "From the beginning, you seem to be talking and stopping, could it be that Coverdale's beliefs have infected you so much that you can't help but speak out several times to stop him from continuing to fight?"

"Your Majesty, don't forget, I said I hated this crude way of fighting the most. ”

"Besides, I don't have enough mercy for the weak. ”

Hausman opened his eyes and said, "But if he's lucky, I once swore to avenge Foster, and now I help the defeated rebels win this war, I think Foster's expression will be wonderful." ”

Speaking of which.

Hausman couldn't help but show a cold smile: "Your Majesty, please allow me to take over the next war." ”
