It took two full days for the army of the Kingdom of Lordaeron to reach the border with the Kingdom of Gilneis. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Most of the nobles and commoners in the Silverpine Forest had been informed of the imminent outbreak of war, and they withdrew to the rear of the Silverpine Forest under the protection of the local militia.

Luckily, due to the swift reaction of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, the Kingdom of Gilneis/Army has not yet had time to take advantage of the emptiness of the Silver Pine Forest - which means that they have lost the opportunity to take the initiative to provoke a war.

With the help of the militia and a number of nobles who were staunch supporters of the royal family of Lordaeron, the Royal Guards of Lordaeron soon set up camp in a clearing a few miles from the Wall of Greymane.

King Terenus was busy receiving the militia guards and nobles, and Arthas didn't like such an occasion, so he chose to take Frost Grief and join the High Elf rangers to scout the terrain of the Wall of Greymane.

"It's really not a good place to fight...... The woods limited the formation of the army, and the widest place was the main road. ”

Aurelia pulled out her scouting notes and carefully scribbled down the path leading to the Wall of Greymane in the Silver Pines Forest.

"But this is very advantageous for us, even if Jean can gather the strength of the whole country, in such a small terrain, the number of people will not have much advantage."

Alsace added.

"And we have Lady Frost here, no matter how many enemies there are, they will not be our opponents!"

Wen Lesa said happily - although Frost Sorrow often teased her, Wen Lesa still envied Frost Sorrow's strength.

Frost Sorrow, who was following her master, had a satisfied smile on her face, and she looked like "you can talk" - Sylvanas was naturally dissatisfied with this, and she rebuked her little sister Winlessa for her "blind worship" in her heart.

"This ...... Is this the Wall of Greymane? ”

At that moment, Aurelia, who was at the head of the line, stopped and let out an exclamation.

Arthas and the others also raised their heads and looked forward, and then felt a strong shock.

At the end of the wide road, a tall fortress rises from the ground, cutting off the only continent in the silver pine forest; From both sides of the fortress stretched the equally tall walls, the straight and steep walls as shuddering as a knife.

The huge wall tiles can be seen clearly even from a distance, and the huge, square, flat stone blocks are really used to move to such a height.

Arthas has seen countless magnificent structures - the bridge of Sadol, Zuaman, and, of course, the Icecrown fortress that the Frostmourn had driven the legions of the undead to build in Northrend.

But Arthas had never seen such spectacular human architecture - among the many races in the world of Azeroth, humans have always been known for their architectural talents, but the Wall of Greymane in front of Arthas completely broke this pattern.

The 30-meter-high wall itself is already extraordinarily majestic, and the huge city gate that is nearly 15 meters high and occupies the wall-like shape is enough to make humans feel small.

The huge gate panels were covered with raised steel spikes and steel balls, and Arthas suspected that the Kingdom of Gilneth must have crossed the border to secretly cut down the centuries-old silver pines in the silver pine forests belonging to the kingdom of Lordaeron when they built the walls.

"You humans...... Do you always like to make things so big? ”

It took a few moments before Sylvanas told her true thoughts.

"We don't always think that only dwarves would build buildings that high...... Who knows what this group of Gilneys people are thinking. ”

Arthas replied with a wry smile.

"Are we really going to attack such a wall? Without the words of Her Excellency the Queen...... Oh yes, and Lady Frost. ”

Frightened by the tall building, Winlessa first expressed her concern. It wasn't until she saw the disdainful look on Frost Sorrow's face that little Winlessa suddenly realized that the walls of Zuaman were also very tall, but the gates were too fragile in front of Frost Sorrow.

Arthas smiled wryly - Winlessa didn't know that her father had given a ban on Frost Sorrow in this war.

Of course, it depended - Arthas knew that his father had never been here, and he was sure that when King Terenus saw the magnificent structure, he would not stick to his old ideas.

Of all the people, Aurelia was the only one who quickly regained her composure after the initial surprise, took a telescope from her quiver, hid behind a pine tree, and began to observe the situation on the city wall.

"There are a lot of turrets on the walls...... Damn, there are already such high walls, why build an arrow tower? ”

Sylvanas walked over to her sister's side, rudely observed the Wall of Greymane, and cursed in a low voice - Sylvanas was not used to being in Quel'Salas for a long time, and in the face of these Gilneys almost wasting construction resources.

"Not only on the top of the city, but also on the wall there are many gaps that can accommodate soldiers, and it is unlikely that you can climb up along the wall unconsciously...... It seems that the only weakness of this wall is in its gates. ”

Aurelia said as she turned the telescope in her hand; And the sensible Wen Leisa took out her reconnaissance notes from her sister's quiver and recorded them carefully.

Arthas seemed to have nothing to do, so he began to wander around the neighborhood with Frost Sorrow, sometimes looking at the Wall of Greymane, sometimes at the nearby pine forest, like a complete tourist.

"Hey, you guy, we're working hard for your family now, why are you so leisurely?"

Sylvanas was quick to express her displeasure.

"Oh, okay...... But I don't have much to do! ”

Arthas said innocently, spreading his hands.

"Damn ......"

Sylvanas choked on Arthas's words—she really couldn't think of anything Arthas could do.

"Arthas, write notes for me!"

Winlessa rushed to Arthas's side and handed the charcoal in his hand along with the scouting notes - little Winlessa didn't want to see Sylvanas's sister quarrel with Arthas, so she used her own methods to resolve the crisis.

"Wen Lessa, well done!"

Sylvanas looked at Arthas's helpless face when he took the charcoal and notes, and was very happy in his heart, and gave a thumbs up to his little sister, praising the sensible Winlessa.
