Menethil's Power

Chapter 268 Reinforcement
History has proved that in the face of the invasion of the Burning Legion, any idea of ​​quickly ending the battle is wrong and deadly. In Azeroth in that time and space, whether it is the War of the Ancients or the Third War, the resistance of this world The latter fought successfully only after losing a large area of ​​territory, while the opposite example was the Battle of the Broken Beach, where the Alliance and the Horde intended to complete their efforts in one battle, but the direct cost was the loss of another king.

Although the Burning Legion will eventually be directly and inexplicably taken over by a group of inexplicable adventurers, this does not mean that they are not an opponent worthy of attention. In fact, the Legion has always been the most intuitive and most terrifying threat to Azeroth.In comparison, the ancient gods are just insignificant parasites.

"So I think that even if the demons don't launch an attack, we can't have the idea of ​​completely blocking them. We must ensure sufficient strategic depth, so the entire Eversong Forest must be treated as a battlefield." Isaacs faced several ranger lords Said that they were gathering in the still intact wooden house at this time to discuss the current situation. "Of course, this is just my suggestion, and the specific decision is still up to you."

The rangers looked at each other and said it was a "suggestion", but they all knew that what Isaacs said was actually the position of human beings. For Lordaeron, it is enough to ensure that the war will not spread to its own territory. As for How the lands of the elven realms were poisoned in this war was of little importance, beyond lip service.

But so what if you knew this?When Silvermoon City fell and the core power of the high elves was almost wiped out, how could they have the confidence to say no to the alliance?The elves need human assistance, and tens of thousands of elf refugees still need to be taken in by the alliance. This is the reality, and Quedore no longer has the capital to maintain his arrogance.

"Are we going to give up the land we have lived for thousands of years if we don't let go of an arrow?" Among the ranger lords, Hawksbill was a little less reserved, and he directly expressed his dissatisfaction, "I can't accept it."

"It won't happen if we don't resist. We can set up traps, ambush the soldiers, and kill the Burning Legion as much as possible while giving up the position." Isaacs turned to look at the map of Quel'Thalas behind him, "The whole elves There is a place in the heart of the kingdom that can be defended, and any defenders here will eventually fall into a situation of being surrounded, which is why I strongly advocate using Daysome and Port of Wind as the main positions."

"Because these two places are the main exits of Quel'Thalas." Halduron obviously understood.

"Yes, the Salas Trail is the only path from Stone to Lordaeron, and Windwind Port is one of the main ports in Quel'Thalas. Keeping them means that we don't have to worry about supply lines at all. At the same time, the two The area will not be attacked from multiple sides at the same time, which means that the defensive pressure is relatively small, and the distance between the two places is relatively close, which can easily support each other."

"At the same time, these two places will also become escape routes for refugees." Lor'themar Theron added, he has always been the calmest one, showing neither emotion nor anger.

"That's right, so I think what you are doing now is to persuade the civilians to evacuate as soon as possible. We don't know how long the Burning Legion will stay in retreat, and if they wait until they launch an attack, it will be too late."

"This is not an easy task." Halduron frowned, "And what the ranger said is far less effective than what the magician said."

Isaacs was just about to say the solution, but suddenly realized that such words should not be said by his ally, so the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. Suddenly, Cirvanas, who had been silent at the side, spoke, and the female elf The voice was extremely cold, "What you should do is to evacuate as many civilians as possible, instead of trying to save everyone."

It means that those who don't want to leave should be allowed to stay as they wish. Being able to say this shows that Cirvanas still sees the situation clearly.Ever since Isaacs made it clear that she would not save Alleria, she never took the initiative to speak a word to him, and even at this moment she didn't even look at him.

"I...understood. I'll go back and dispatch the Farstrider Legion immediately." Halduron felt his voice dry. Since the chief Sylvanas had already spoken, they had no choice but to obey.

After all the rangers carried out their orders, only Isaacs and Cylvanas were left, "I know you are very sad, but..." Isaacs tried to find some topics.

"Let's get down to business, Lord Alliance Commander." Cirvanas responded, without any emotion in his tone.

Isaacs choked, "I hope your ranger can continue to investigate. In addition, I will take my people to build a line of defense in the Port of Wind, and I need your help. After all, you are the master of Fengxing now..."

He stopped talking, because he suddenly felt that the temperature in this room seemed to be a few degrees lower. The reason why Cirvanas is now the head of Fengxing Patriarch is that Aurelia's life and death are unknown. Which pot.

As far as scouting in the jungle is concerned, the rangers are still very good, this is why Cirvanas will camp in this forest clearing, but no matter how good scouting is, it is impossible to find the inner traitor.

Fengxing Port is the same as before, but the level of excitement is several levels lower than it was eight years ago. After all, after Quel'Thalas self-enclosed, the only industry left here is fishing, but one thing has not changed. Its defense The strength is the same level as eight years ago - almost nothing, but this time it faces enemies that are much stronger than the trolls.

Returning to Port of Wind gave Isaacs a kind feeling. It was here that he met Valeera.After the panic of the residents when they first saw the floating ship was appeased by Sylvanas, the soldiers of the Punishment Legion began to build fortifications around the port, and the two Punishers were deployed on both sides, becoming fixed forts.

In the past three days, Isaacs kept in touch with Wangcheng through the communicator on the Hyperion, and even attended the second alliance summit. After learning that a new disaster was coming, Ironforge and Stormwind City said that they would send a large number of reinforcements, but because they were separated by the strait, their support would be delayed; needless to say, the Wildhammer dwarves, Falstad had already brought a large number of Griffin Knights to support On the way: Solas and Terenas took this opportunity to shake hands and make peace, which means that Lordaeron and Stromgarde resumed diplomatic relations. Both parties agreed that it was Prestor, the sinner, who broke the relationship between the two kingdoms .

With the exception of the Kingdom of Southern Gilneas, Greymane did not even attend the summit. This is indeed in line with the king's upright style, but Southern Gilneas' refusal to send troops means that the Crowley family's ruling Northern Gilneas Republic It is also impossible to send many troops, and the two sides must contain each other.

Isaacs has no opinion on this, and he will not regret intervening in Gilneas affairs. In fact, before the collective werewolf, even a complete Gilneas is not very good. The main force of this battle against the Burning Legion will only be Lordaeron, Isaacs is well aware of this.

Garithos' Northern Legion has entered the Elven Kingdom from the Salas Trail. After much consideration, Isaacs ordered him to build a defense line near the Daysome Fortress to assist in the defense. After all, the Elven Fortress should not be able to accommodate the entire human army. , and Garithos himself has always been at odds with the elves.

At this time, Fengxing Port has gathered many elf civilians who were evacuated by the ranger army organization one after another. They have some understanding of the current situation, so they are panic-stricken. There are more wandering demons in Song Forest, and there is no news of other enemies.

These three days, Cirvanas seemed to have vented all the hatred in her heart on these wandering demons. She went out at least twice a day, and every time she came back, she would bring at least two things: the demon's head and scars, because there was Ai Sachs, the super nanny with no side effects, Cirvanas fights almost without any scruples. Although she is constantly familiarizing herself with the demon's abilities, every time she returns, she has more and more scars on her body.

And when Isaacs was healed, she would come and go without saying a word, completely treating the paladin as a fountain of light or an automatic healing robot.

Finally, after Cirvanas forcibly killed a heroic Doom Guard at the cost of half-body burns, Isaacs couldn't help it. This treatment alone consumed more than half of his holy power, although the high-level saint The knight's holy power is worthless and will be restored soon, and he still feels that he should say something.

"Listen, Sylvanas." Although it is easy to see something that shouldn't be seen during this kind of treatment, Isaacs has no intention of appreciating it at all, "If you continue like this, you will eventually be hurt For the injury that came back, revenge is a dish that tastes better after a long time, before that, you must suppress it and protect yourself."

"What's the matter?" Cirvanas looked at Isaacs calmly, "I went out alone, without any deputy, and I didn't disturb all your arrangements. Does this hinder you again?"

"I just want to say that your life is much more precious than these demons. If something happens to you, Lilas, Vereesa and I will all be very sad."

"Come on, in what capacity do you say such a thing?"

"I'm your friend," said Isaacs.

"Then is my sister Alleria your friend?" Sylvanas asked back, with a cold light in his eyes.

Isaacs was silent, with a look of helplessness.

"Hehe, I have seen you clearly, human, you are a ruthless person, all your actions are out of interests and will not involve emotions, if I die after killing several heroic demons, Presumably you just think this is a good deal, maybe this is the psychology of the so-called 'superior'." Cirvanas tidied up her clothes that were a little messy due to the treatment just now, "Take care of your own Responsibility, the fortifications you have built in the past few days cannot stop the army of demons."

No feelings?Only care about profit?Isaacs didn't expect that such a word would be used to describe himself, he smiled wryly, "I understand how you feel now, Sylvanas, I know it's very bad for a loved one to be fatally threatened, because I myself I have been suffering from this for more than ten years..."
