Listening to King Terenus's words, Anduin Lothar nodded at first, and then looked at the field by the side of the road, where a dozen griffons were tied together, shaking their feathers and necks restlessly—it seemed that the situation at Riptide Castle was indeed urgent, and so many messengers had been sent in one go. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Has Prince Danas's defense at the northern end of the Sadol Bridge been breached?" Anduin Lothar asked his first question - although there is a coast in the Arathi Heights adjacent to the town of Nanhai, it is all covered with reefs, and even fishing is an impossible luxury, and it is located in a narrow sea, and the current is extremely fast, even if there is no reef, it is impossible for ships to dock, so it is impossible for the orcs to land from there, which is also a conclusion in the formulation of the strategy, then, the only reason that can explain the appearance of the orcs is that the Sadol Bridge has been breached.

"I don't know, neither do His Majesty the King and Lord Kurbanke. However, Lord Kurbanke said that Riptide Fort did not receive any news from Prince Danas that it was attacked by the orcs, and Lord Kurbanke believed that it was impossible for His Royal Highness Prince Danas to be broken through by the orcs silently, so he thought that the orcs were coming from somewhere else, and at the same time he also sent a signal for help to the army of His Royal Highness Prince Danas. As if he had known that Anduin Lothar would ask such a question, the griffon messenger repeated what Kurbanke had taught him earlier.

"I think so too." Anduin Lothar glanced at King Terenus, nodded and said--Confirming that there was no news of the loss of the Sador Bridge, Anduin Lothar strengthened his previous judgment - you must know that the northern end of the Sador Bridge not only gathers all the elite troops of Riptide Fortress, but also the famous and difficult to defend and difficult to attack Dammod Fortress at the southern end, if the orcs can capture it silently, they will not be hindered when they go north for the first time, but will have already swept the entire continent.

"So where did the orcs come from?" Uther asked, crossing her arms and frowning.

"That question aside." King Terenus waved his hand, and then said, "It doesn't matter where the orcs landed at this time, it's important to immediately strategize to support Riptide Castle. ”

With that, King Terenus asked the griffon messenger again, "How many orcs are there?" Did they attack when you left? ”

"Our scouts have not detected the exact number of orcs, but have estimated that there are about 50,000 from a distance. At the time I left, the orcs didn't attack. The griffon messenger replied truthfully.

"Your Majesty King Terenus, are you done asking? Please send troops to rescue Riptide Fort as soon as possible! Most of the soldiers of the Stormgard Kingdom are gathered at the northern end of the Sador Bridge, and the strength of my father to defend the city should not exceed a few thousand now, and perhaps the orcs have already begun to attack the city before we speak! Garin clutched the note in his hand, almost crushing the letter with his fingers.

The light is above, his own father...... Garin's worries and fears reached the extreme, and he could not imagine how his father, with only a few thousand palace guards, could resist the attack of orcs ten times his own, lacking the equipment to defend the city; Every time I delay here, the danger of Riptide Castle doubles!

"It will take a while to get here from Riptide Castle, even if it's a griffon messenger...... When we arrive, will Riptide Castle be ......?" Uther said with a mutter—his fears were not unfounded, and it made sense that the orcs would have hastened their assault on the city when they saw Riptide Castle release griffin messengers for help, if there were only a few thousand soldiers in the city...... Maybe when he and his group arrived at a gallop, Riptide Castle had changed hands, and at that time, the exhausted human coalition army would be able to defeat the army of 50,000 orcs in the field?

"What do you mean?" Garin took a step forward angrily and glared at Uther—the previous discussion between King Terenus and Anduin Lothar had already angered the anxious Garin; It's just that one of these two is a respected old king, and the other is a well-known warrior, and Garin still has to count on the army in their hands to rescue his father, so it is difficult to say anything; But now, Uther may be a "lightbringer" revered by the commoners near the Northshire Abbey, but in the Northern Subcontinent, the infamous man who utters such words will naturally become the target of manic Garin's vent.

"Garin, don't be impulsive, Sir Uther has no ill will." King Terenus stretched out an arm and stopped Garin.

The majesty of the Lordaeron monarch shocked Prince Garin, and he did not take any further action, but pleaded bitterly: "Your Majesty King Terenus, my father really can't hold out for long, you better send troops quickly, I'm afraid it's too late!" ”

King Terenus pondered for a while, and under the anxious gaze of Prince Garin, the old king nodded, and instructed the royal guard of Lordaeron beside him: "Bring the letter and pen!" ”

One of the royal guards of Lordaeron took a folded letter paper, well-sealed ink, and a quill from the cyst in his saddle and handed it to King Terenus.

The old king unfolded the letter, leaned it against the back of his warhorse, wrote it quickly, and then took out his personal seal from the pocket at his waist and fastened it under the letter.

King Terenus refolded the letter and handed it to the griffin messenger, and commanded, "Divide two of you and send this letter to Dalaran, and give it to Archmage Antonidas or Archmage Modra, and tell them everything they want to know." Got it? Remember, it can only be handed over to these two, and if you can't find them, go find Master Khadgar and ask for his help. You can't tell anyone else anything that's going on at Riptide Castle except these three, you know? ”

The griffon messenger nodded, put the letter in his inner pocket in his leather armor, nodded solemnly, and promised, "I will deliver this letter myself." ”

King Terenus nodded—the situation in Dalaran is complicated, the Kenrito Council is not in charge of everything, and mages always have strange ideas, such as the mage who betrayed the Human Alliance mentioned by Prince Garin, although it turned out that the real betrayer was Blackmore himself, but there is no guarantee that these mages will do something crazy for their so-called research.
