After the Ashbringer was forged, Mograine returned to Southsea first, while Tulayan stayed at Ironforge waiting for his good friends Urian and Khadgar. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Originally, according to the plan, Mograine and the others would wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Stormwind City in South Sea Town before launching a counterattack, but unexpectedly, when Mograine returned with the Ash Emissary, the news of the capture of Dunhold by the Drunken Wind Coalition came.

In this case, Uther made a quick decision and took advantage of the sudden decline in the power of the undead in the hills of Hillsbrad to directly send troops to Tarummere.

"As long as we occupy Talen Mill and hold Steinbrad in our hands, reinforcements from the south can use the entire Arathi Heights as a rear, and the Hillsbrad Hills as a buffer, then our situation will be very favorable!"

Uther's military literacy is not to be said, what he is talking about is the best choice that the paladins of South Sea Town know at the moment.

So, after the Drunken Wind Coalition directly bypassed Talummere, the paladins of Southsea Town took the initiative to go north and came to Talummir behind the Drunken Wind Alliance.

These five thousand troops (paladins, priests, and other professions) calling themselves the Silver Crusaders were completely unaware of what a tough battle it was.

……………………

At the beginning, when the main force of Alsace was moving north from Dalaran and then east, in order to connect Dunhold and Lordaeron, it took a lot of effort to connect the undead Scourge, and in the key Talenmere, Arthas even sent a part of its own elite troops.

Among them is the "rebel king" of the Eldraine-Nirub people, Anubrak.

The Crypt Lord, who was assassinated by the Scourge, was stationed in Tarummere with a large number of Eldraine-Nirub undead, which is one of the reasons why the Drunken Wind Coalition did not take the initiative to attack here in the first place, and after seeing these Spider-Men, Drunken Wind decisively chose to bypass this hard bone.

However, while Drunkwind knew about Eldraine-Nirub, Uther didn't - and besides, Drunkwind didn't know that the Paladins of Southsea had plans to attack Tarummere......

The Silver Crusaders assembled in Southsea Town, led by Uther and the Ashbringer Mograini, made their way to the outskirts of Tarummere.

In the short journey from Southsea to Talummere, all the paladins saw the power of the Ember Bringer with their own eyes.

Each of Mograine's swords contains an incomparably abundant and powerful power of holy light, and the undead affected by him are purified one after another, coupled with the cooperation of the paladins - along the way, the Silver Crusaders are simply invincible, whether it is a weak zombie or a huge abomination, there is no enemy under Mograine's hands!

As a result, the confident Silver Crusaders had just taken up camp outside of Tarummere when they were disgraced by Eldraine Nirub's surprise attack.

Due to the lack of mages in the ranks, the Silver Crusaders have been stationed near the Sodoril River, the longest river in the Eastern Kingdoms that flows through Lake Keldaron from north to south, crossing almost the entire northern continent of the Eastern Kingdom. Although the river water is currently slightly polluted upstream due to the Undead Scourge, paladins and clerics can take the water and purify it for reuse.

Therefore, along the way, the supply of water for the Silver Crusaders was not a problem at all.

But unexpectedly, Anubarak, who was defending in Tarummere, figured out the rhythm of the Silver Crusaders, and he sent a large number of spider-men to dig tunnels and heard the march of the Silver Crusaders underground. With the information the gargoyles received from the heavens, the Crypt Demons have prepared a large number of tunnels on the banks of the Sodoril River, suitable for camping, for the Eldraine-Nirub to raid.

These ingenious tunnels look indistinguishable from the ground, and even people and horses can step on them without surprise, but underground, the Eldraine-Nirub can easily break through the ground and attack suddenly.

Successive victories put Uther and the Silver Crusaders off the line, and their final camp was the most authentic.

It was late afternoon when the Silver Crusaders arrived, because Mograine was so strong, and the Silver Crusaders marched extremely fast, and a full day's march was difficult even for the Paladins, and the priests were exhausted by this time.

After sending a large number of sentinels to guard the guard, Uther let everyone rest, and in his opinion, if he had a chance tomorrow, it would be best to take Talummir in one go!

……………………

However, in the middle of the night, there was almost inaudible footsteps underground.

More than a thousand Eldraine-Nirub spirits, led by Anubrak himself, came to the bottom of the Silver Crusade camp.

Then, these spider-men came out of the more than twenty secret passages that had been prepared!

Uther had a lot of sentinels - but he didn't have the inside of the camp at all!

Led by Anubrak, a large number of Eldraine-Nirub men teared through tent after tent with great vigour, spitting out poisonous corrosive insects and attacking the paladins in the dark.

Fortunately, the paladins have a skill called the Holy Shield Technique - many paladins who were injured and woke up at the first time decisively chose to hold up the Holy Shield and fight back!

I have to say that if the target of this raid was not the Silver Crusader with the paladin as the main body, maybe Anubaraq would have become famous in a battle, but unfortunately, when facing the paladin with the golden glittering invincible holy shield technique, the Eldraine-Nirub people were a little embarrassed, and finally had to retreat from the tunnel in a hurry.

Although the Eldraine-Nirub raid failed to extend the gains, the Silver Crusaders still suffered heavy losses - the paladins knew the Holy Shield, but the Priests only had the True Word: the Shield, which was no different from a layer of paper when faced with an attack from the Eldraine-Nirub.

Moreover, the paladins who were personally attacked by Anubaraq didn't even have a chance to use the Holy Shield.

After Uther had inspected the ground overnight, the casualty statistics had made the first paladin almost jump to his feet in distress.

Paladins are not a class that can be chosen as you want in games, and any paladin is extremely important to the Alliance! This time the Silver Crusaders almost poured out, but the paladins were full, including less than two thousand, and in the sneak attack at midnight last year, almost half of the paladins were wounded - and even more than a hundred were killed directly, including thirty-two baptized paladins!

And the priests were even more miserable, two thousand priests were reduced by a quarter overnight, and the remaining were nearly one-third seriously injured, and with the loss of other professions, almost overnight, there were half fewer people who could go to the battlefield - although many people were able to regain their combat effectiveness after cultivating, but this was tantamount to a slap in the face for the Silver Crusaders!
