Chapter 225: Marshal Garithars
Not long after nightfall, the sound of battle was already heard. The whole of Andohal was awakened.
Shouts of killing, crying, prayers, shouting, explosions of magic...... All kinds of sounds converged, causing an unusually chaotic chaos throughout the city.
This also made Song Zheng secretly worried, although the walls of Andohar were far taller and stronger than those of Dalongjun, and there were far more defenders and supplies than Dalongjun, there were too many nobles and merchants in this commercial city, and its will to resist may not be as strong as Dalongjun.
However, he did not have the energy to take care of anything else at the moment, and when Gavin Rad led his army out of the north gate, it was time for him to leave Andohal through the south gate.
"It's a pity that I'm going to miss out on a lot of experiences again." Song Zheng sighed in his heart, and quietly left the guild's residence with some regrets.
Lena Imbas and the others knew that he was going out of the city, but they had already rushed to the battlefield at the North Gate to help.
Walking alone on the street, Song Zheng suddenly felt something, looked back, and immediately saw a woman in armor waving to him at the end of the road, and beside her was a snow-white frost wolf.
"Bridget...... When I get back, don't get hurt again. Song Zheng's eyes widened to see carefully, but one of her eyes was hidden by her long hanging hair, and she couldn't see the extent of the injury.
Song Zheng did not leave from the city gate, in fact, with the undead natural disaster completely surrounding the city, the south gate had already been blocked by people with boulders, etc., and he could only use ropes to climb down from the top of the city.
Surprisingly, the battle in the north did not seem to have any effect on the undead forces in the south, and the entire camp of the undead was silent.
But once you step into it, you can immediately feel a chill to the bone.
The skeletons and ghouls froze as if they were asleep, but at the slightest command from the necromancers, they would go on a rampage to kill all the enemies in their path.
Even if Song Zheng was in a state of stealth, he tried to choose the place with the least number of undead troops to pass through.
Because there were too many undead troops, overlapping around Andorhar, it took Song Zheng more than half an hour to finally get out of the undead camp besieging the city.
However, there are still a large number of scattered undead in front of them, many of whom still have the costumes of ordinary residents, and it is estimated that they have just been transformed into undead, and from time to time they wander among the ruins.
"It seems that the villages around Andohar have probably been ......overtaken by the undead natural disaster," Song Zheng sighed in his heart.
Once such a large-scale war breaks out, ordinary people will surely suffer the most.
The distance from Andorhar to Laran is quite long, especially as it takes a long time to cross a section of the mountain range that extends from the Alterac Mountains.
Song Zheng couldn't help but start to miss the Dragon Eagle of Silver Moon City, but those high-level elites had only cultivated a small number of Dragon Eagles that could be ridden for thousands of years, and it was probably unrealistic for humans to want to cultivate their own air force through similar methods.
In particular, the wild griffons are significantly more ferocious than the dragon eagles, and it will only be more difficult to tame them.
"Next time I have a chance, I must buy a few dragon eagles from Silvermoon City to feed." Song Zheng secretly thought, no matter what world you are in, the means of travel are very important, and the dragon eagle is probably equivalent to a private helicopter.
But all he can do now is run through the mountains and forests on his own legs...... After the undead scourge took over the surrounding villages, not even a donkey was left.
Song Zheng's speed at this moment was already good, and a day later, he was about to cross the mountain forest and enter the plains around Lake Lordamire.
When the night was dark, he had to stop and rest and take out some food from the ring space to replenish his strength.
At this moment, he felt a slight vibration of the ground under his feet, which made his heart tremble.
Song Zheng, who was already very familiar with the war, immediately recognized that this should be the vibration caused by the sound of dense footsteps...... There's a large army marching at a fast pace nearby!
"How can there be an army here? Could it be that the undead found me and sent troops to chase me? Song Zheng's heart sank a little, and he hurriedly restarted the stealth technique.
However, he soon realized that it was a false alarm, as he soon heard the sound of horses' hooves—a human force coming.
The figures of some knights soon came into view of him, and judging by the armor, they should have belonged to Lordaeron's army.
This surprised Song Zheng again, because almost all the armies in the southern hills of Hillsbrad had been taken away by Arthas, and it was impossible for the ruined towns of Nanhai and Tarunmere to form another army.
"Could it be that the reinforcements sent by the royal capital of Lordaeron, but why did they come around to the south?" Song Zheng felt a little strange in his heart, there was a straight road from the capital of Lordaeron to Andohar, and the cavalry could even gallop directly to Andohar, and the detour to the south was not only much farther away, but also had to climb over a lot of mountains.
However, whatever the reason for the presence of these knights, he could borrow two horses from this force so that he could get to Dalaran as soon as possible.
Song Zheng showed up and took the initiative to stop those knights and explain his identity.
However, when he was led by the knight in front of him to meet the general of this team, he was surprised to find that this was an old acquaintance.
"Cheng Yuan? Why are you here? Song Zheng looked at the young general in front of him in surprise, he never expected that it would be Cheng Yuan who would lead this army with him.
"Song Zheng?!" Cheng Yuan was also pleasantly surprised.
The two have been separated for a while, and they can't get in touch at all in this chaotic battle, and they are excited to meet unexpectedly at this moment.
"You've really become a general?" Song Zheng looked behind Cheng Yuan, the size of this army is not small, there should be nearly 10,000 people, but there are only a few hundred cavalry, and most of the rest are infantry.
"The current generals are worthless, the royal capital is in a mess, many young generals have been promoted several levels, I happened to exterminate a branch of the Cursed Church in the Brill area some time ago, and then I was promoted, but at the same time, I also received the task of supporting Andohal." Cheng Yuan smiled bitterly.
Song Zheng immediately shook his head when he heard this: "I just came from Andohar, and with your people to support, it is estimated that I will be torn apart by those undead before I can even get close to the city gate." ”
"I know, that's why I chose to come around from the south, hoping to get some success from a surprise attack, and we're only a small part of the support force, and the more support force is led by Marshal Garithar." Cheng Yuan said.
"Garitharth? That guy has really become a marshal, and the support troops let him lead it, isn't that a cheat......"
