Chapter 694 took the initiative
Thirty miles outside Silvermoon City, Karthas and Wendthor were nervously arranging their defenses, and the orcs had begun to assemble a large army since they had not known what had gone crazy ten days ago.
Originally, the two sides had reached a non-aggression agreement, so the actions of the orcs did not alert anyone, but something even more frustrating happened.
The orcs had goblins landed around Silvermoon City three days ago, and soon launched an attack on Silvermoon City's defenses.
Karthas reacted quite quickly, and immediately sent men to support his own defenses, and he urgently contacted King Varian, and asked Varian for assistance in this matter.
If it was before, the Terrans might not have paid attention to the High Elves' requests for help at all, but since the High Elves took the initiative in the expeditionary force, the Terrans have slowly begun to accept the High Elves.
This time, Varian sent five regiments of troops to support the High Elves without saying a word, and he had been trying to contact the orc higher-ups to see if there was some misunderstanding.
Three emissaries were sent in a row, but the emissaries sent to contact the orcs were as if they had disappeared, and none of them had ever been able to come back.
Varian knew that it was impossible to ask for peace now, and the orcs had already shown that they were going to exterminate the High Elves.
How could Varian let go of such a cold thing, today it is the High Elves who are not able to keep it tomorrow, and tomorrow it will be their human race, so Varian has already prepared ten more regiments of troops, ready to be sent out by the High Elves as soon as they are tight.
Originally, after receiving reinforcements from the human race, the defense line of the High Elves had become stable, but I didn't expect that this afternoon, the orcs seemed to have taken stimulants, and they rushed up one by one.
Although the alliance of the High Elves and Terrans tried their best to resist, the orcs still captured the first line of defense, and of course, the orc army was also greatly damaged.
I thought that the orc army should take a break after paying such a heavy price in the afternoon, but I didn't expect that these deadly bastards had no intention of resting.
They were constantly making some equipment, and from the previous position, the High Elves could hear the constant sound of war drums coming from the orc army.
All of this indicates that the orcs are preparing to attack overnight, and in order to stabilize the morale of the second line of defense, Kael'thas and Wendthor decide to go to the front line in person.
After all, behind them is Silvermoon City, and if the second line of defense is lost again, then Silvermoon City will directly face the attack of the orcs.
"Marshal Wendthor, have you sent a letter of request for help to His Majesty Varian, if the reinforcements don't arrive by tomorrow morning, then we may not last long!"
"Don't worry! I have already sent someone back to ask for help this evening, His Majesty Varian has already prepared, it is estimated that the reinforcements have already begun to move, and the reinforcements are guaranteed to arrive before dawn tomorrow! ”
"That's good! ~ It's so embarrassing, if it weren't for being attacked by a forest troll once before, our High Elves wouldn't be so vulnerable! I was expecting to be able to get a period of peace to recuperate, but who would have thought that such a thing would happen! ”
"Okay~ His Highness Kael'thas, since the incident has happened, we can't undo anything, isn't this still where we are here to help you fight! Don't worry~ You will definitely be able to turn the corner! ”
"Then I can only borrow your auspicious words, I'll go down and arrange it first, if these hateful guys don't stop tonight, I must let them taste the power of our ranger troops!" Sylvanas! ”
Kael'thas was very annoyed by what had happened recently, and in less than half a year, their High Elves had been beaten to their doorstep twice.
This not only caused a great loss to their High Elves in terms of material resources, financial resources, and manpower, but also caused their High Elves reputation to plummet.
Especially if it weren't for the help of the Terrans this time, maybe they would have been beaten by others in their homes by now, thinking of this, Kael'thas decided to send his most elite troops.
Let them ease the tension on their side, now it's up to their rangers, her sister Sylvanas has been her successor since Aurelia joined the Expeditionary Force.
Originally, a large part of the reason Kael'thas did this was to appease Aurelia, but he didn't expect to accidentally find a rare talent.
Sylvanas has grown rapidly in just a few months and is now an excellent commander on par with her sister.
This time, Kael'thas is going to let Sylvanas take people and harass the orcs on the opposite side to see if he can delay the orc's attack until dawn.
Sylvanas, who had been following Kael'thas all along, heard His Royal Highness the Prince call her, and immediately bowed down and said:
"Your Royal Highness, may I ask what you command?"
"Sylvanas, I command you to take your best warriors and teach me a hard lesson about the damned orcs, and remember that your main task is to stall for time, preferably until dawn tomorrow!"
"Don't worry, Your Royal Highness Prince, I guarantee in the honor of the Windranger family that the orcs will never have the heart to attack our second line of defense before dawn tomorrow!"
"Good~! Be safe, I'm here waiting for you to get back safely! “
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for your concern!"
Sylvanas received the order without the slightest delay, and after saluting and saying goodbye to Karthas, she immediately led her rangers to begin preparations.
Just as they were about to leave, Selin. Fireheart came to her side with someone, and it turned out that it was the ** master who asked Selin to bring someone to assist Sylvanas.
Since Fang Hua and Aurelia left, Selin Huoxin was favored by the ** master and accepted as an apprentice, and his growth in the past few months has not been slow.
This orc invasion of Selim Fireheart was a great success, and he and Sylvanas were hailed as the successors of the High Elf generals.
In the face of such an honor, Selin did not feel the slightest sense of pride, because a demon-like figure often appeared in his mind.
It can be said that this person has single-handedly saved the decline of their High Elves, and has become the core figure of the expeditionary force with extraordinary strength, and their High Elves are now able to return to the Alliance, which is indispensable.
It's that kind of person, Selin has never seen him proud, which makes Selin, who has only achieved such a little success, dare to have any proud thoughts
When Sylvanas learned of Selin's intentions, he was overjoyed.
Although their ranger units are capable of both near and far, their ranged attacks are still much weaker than heavy artillery units such as the Mage Troops.
Now with the support of the mage troops, Sylvanas is confident that they will be able to complete the mission well, and slowly the two teams disappear into the night!
