Chapter 193: The War Begins

After a little twist and turn, in Sunny Wind Village, the forces of humans and blood elves were finally able to converge. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Jon carefully inquired with Sylvanas about the current situation of the elves, and learned that the total number of remaining elves at present was only three or four thousand, most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, and only about a thousand people could barely fight.

Sylvanas has already done his best to arm these more than a thousand blood elves, including young elves with immature faces, and many adult female elves...... Moreover, among the troops of more than 1,000 people, the number of mages and rangers with strong combat effectiveness is only about two hundred.

With this point of troops, it can be said that the current situation of the blood elves is very bad, very bad!

And their addiction attacks are also very serious, there are only a few blood elves like Sylvanas who can tenaciously control their addiction, most of them will have a demon addiction attack every week or so, and in severe cases, it will even appear two or three times a week...... If you survive it, you can barely continue to survive, but if you can't survive it, you will become a completely heartless person!

It can almost be said that Sylvanas-Windranger was able to lead this group of elves to survive here for more than a year, which is almost a miracle!

Jon had also tried to use Holy Light spells to heal these demonic Blood Elves, but the effect was not significant, and it was of little use other than to slightly alleviate their pain.

If you follow the original plot and let these blood elves suck the power of Muru, they may be able to alleviate the demon addiction at the source and achieve a lot of results.

However, Jon is not going to hand over one of his biggest hole cards to these blood elves like this now, not to mention that Muru's power has gradually weakened after many sucks, and it is impossible to support the sucking of three or four thousand elves!

As for the strength of Amani Trolls, the Blood Elf Scouts also gave a more detailed answer.

After years of suppression by humans and elves, the number of Amani trolls in the entire world is about three or four thousand, and there have been a lot of losses in the conflict with the undead...... Because the disparity in numbers is not so huge, the Blood Elves can rely on the Death Scars to block their attacks!

However, after more than an hour of interrogation of Marlan's captive, the giant Zandalar troll "Golden Roke the Breaker", Jon brings a very grim answer.

Zurkin was ready to establish a new Troll Empire in Quel'Thalas, and almost ten of his troll tribes had accepted his summons and led the elite of their clan to Quel'Thalas, and the number was growing.

Judging by Kinrock, a troll who is not good at mathematics, the total number of trolls in the entire Quel'Salas area has exceeded 10,000!

This number is very large for the alliance of elves and humans.

Because the reinforcements Jon brought were only more than 800 main forces of the Scarlet Crusaders, and more than 200 Blood Knights.

With a 1:5 ratio to trolls, the gap is only even greater when you consider that the coalition is now desperately short of spellcasters (only a handful of blood elf mages), and that the trolls have a large number of witch doctors and even sorcerers in their various clans.

That evening, the high-level leaders of the two sides had a rather detailed meeting on the current situation in Quel'Salas.

In addition to Sylvanas, the leader of the Elves, and Jon, the leader of the Humans, the attendees included the High Leader of the Scarlet Crusaders, Tairosus, the Chief Blood Knight Marlan, the Acting Ranger General Haduron, and the Archmage Caponia.

In addition to a lot of combat plans discussed at the meeting, both Sylvanas and Tairosus are veteran commanders, and even have a lot of experience in fighting trolls...... However, these plans, in the eyes of Jon, who is a pure layman in military affairs, are almost unreliable.

Without him, the difference in strength between the two sides is too great, leaving most plans with little room for implementation.

Moreover, there was no chance of carrying it out, because the next morning, the troll attack began!

……

Morning Striker Fortress, a small hill more than ten miles east of Sunny Wind Village, was only one of many outposts in Quel'Salas for thousands of years, and only a small squad of rangers was stationed.

Today, however, this hill is the most important military stronghold for the Blood Elves, as it is the only way between Sunny Wind Village and Silvermoon City thanks to the Death Scar.

Moreover, the terrain of this small hill is quite dangerous, it is a typical place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it can be said to be the last barrier to protect the blood elves!

In the early morning, just as the sun was breaking, a small group of trolls approached the walls and attempted to launch a surprise attack.

However, the sentry guards set up by the mages of the Morning Blade soon spotted them, and the rangers and makeshift blood elf soldiers immediately launched a counterattack and lit a beacon fire.

The distance of more than ten miles was very close, and in less than half an hour, Jon and Sylvanas had already arrived at the fortress with a group of reinforcements.

At this point, the trolls' almost costly attack had worked, and their vanguard had already hit the hill, but the timely arrival of the Blood Knights drove the trolls back down the hill.

This is the closest the trolls have come to taking the Morningblade Fortress.

Sylvanas, who was experienced in fighting trolls, immediately stepped up her defenses, and she dispersed her few rangers to the most dangerous positions on the hills, using their excellent archery skills to kill the trolls as much as possible as they charged.

On the hill, they could see a steady stream of trolls in the distance, with different skin tones, and their number would never be less than five thousand!

It seems that this is a real offensive launched by Zurkin, and it is no longer the previous petty fight!

However, most of the trolls were only responsible for attacking the flanks, and the main troll force that the coalition forces mainly dealt with was the previous tribal troll, who seemed to be the vanguard of this attack.

It has to be said that this group of trolls is quite heroic, they use shield warriors to cover, bring the headhunters into range, and use javelins to launch a counterattack against the elves and humans in the trenches, and cause a lot of damage.

However, after the reinforcements arrived, the defense of the Morning Striker Fortress could be said to be quite solid, and the trolls attacked for a whole day, and finally had to leave more than two hundred corpses behind and retreat.

Looking at the retreating troll warriors, whether they were elves or humans, they were a little puzzled, these nearly five thousand trolls, if they launched a full-scale attack, the Morning Blade Fortress might have to bear a lot of pressure...... But they went on the offensive almost all day long using only the vanguard troops!

"Could it be that the trolls have some conspiracy?" This is the thought in Sylvanas's head!
