Chapter 65: The Deployment of the Elwyn Forest

The lush jungle erupted in cheers for the entire team, and perhaps in the near future they would have to face the vicious orcs, but the vast majority of those born in the Elwyn Forest were excited when they returned home. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Without stopping the cheers of the team, Xiao Yi, escorted by the legion guards, rode on the stone bridge connecting the Western Wilderness with the Alwyn Forest.

Compared to the vast fields full of withered yellow, the Elwyn Forest is much more colorful, with gently flowing streams, wildflowers on the roadside, and the occasional critter running in front of you.

The dire wolves had already dispersed into the dense jungle, and the soldiers were in good spirits, and they were preoccupied with the possibility of an enemy.

The roof of the Xiquan Fortress had come into view, and the wolf howls one after another showed that the military fortress was not occupied by orcs, which was good news for Xiao Yi.

Passing through the crooked forest road, Xiao Yi's eyes lit up, and the Xiquan Fortress appeared in front of him, it seemed that the Xiquan Fortress had not changed much, except for the fact that it was more depressed than after he left, even the weeds did not grow.

At this time, a group of dire wolves were frolicking in the open space in front of the fortress, they chased each other as if they were happy, and some were lying on the ground lazily, basking in the warm sun. Others simply roared in the sky.

Xiao Yi stood in front of the gate of Xiquan Fortress and said to Sharif with a smile: "Do you remember? When we first came here, we were hit by an arrow. ”

"yes, there aren't any refugees now." Sharif sighed.

Xiao Yi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Who knows where the orcs are staring here, who dares to hide here?" ”

As he spoke, he looked into the depths of the woods and asked, "Have the dire wolves dispersed?" It's no better than the Wild West, and I don't want the enemy to touch me. ”

Nodding, Sharif had already let the dire wolves enter the forest: "Don't worry, my lord, I don't think anything can be better than them in the forest, even those elves can't do it!" ”

"Mr. Van Cleef, when will the Minfu team fully arrive?" Xiao Yi looked at the sky, the sun was already in the west, and the dark night in the jungle always came earlier.

"I'm sorry, my lord, I'm afraid they won't be able to reach it until dark." Van Rikoff said helplessly: "There are too many of them, and there are carts carrying stones and supplies, and the forest is not like a wilderness, and other places than roads are not suitable for marching. ”

Xiao Yi thought for a moment and quickly made a decision: "My soldiers can't move, because they will receive a task soon. ”

He nodded at Sharif, and then said, "Let the people who arrive first toil it, enlarge the clearing for their camp, and put up a fence, I don't want to come together tomorrow morning and hear that our people have been killed in their sleep by wild beasts or orcs!" ”

Van Rikv was a little embarrassed, the gathering place of more than 10,000 people, not to mention the current open space of the West Spring Fortress, even if the jungle was temporarily cleared, it would definitely not be enough before sunset! And most of them are still on the road.

Fortunately, he had anticipated the situation, took out the map from his bosom, and Van Rikoff said, "Your Excellency, please see." ”

He pointed to the location of the Xiquan Fortress and said, "I think there should be a military camp here, as well as these two places. ”

He pointed out the river not far from Westspring Fortress, which started in the mountains on the edge of Stormwind and ended at the junction of the Elwin Forest and Twilight Forest, dividing the location of Westspring Fortress into a narrow strip of land.

The river may not be wide, but it is always more open than the depths of the forest, and Van Rikoff intends to place a military camp in the narrowest part of the river, two near Stormwind and one near the Twilight Forest.

"I've long explored the terrain of this generation, and it's very difficult if all of our men were crammed around the West Springs Fortress," he said. ”

"Although most of our building materials are brought from the western wilderness, it is not just stone to build a city, there is enough wood and clay to build a collection yard elsewhere."

Scratching his head, in Xiao Yi's impression, the only memory of building a house is the farmhouse built by his family when he was a child.

"But just hold here, if the orcs sneak in, we still have to catch the blind." Xiao Yi spread his hands and said.

"Nope! We don't need to defend here. This time Sharif spoke, "As long as you build a sentry camp here to prevent the enemy from smuggling here, I don't think even the dire wolf's defense line can break through with a small-scale invasion, and it is impossible for a real large-scale enemy to cross the river." ”

Sharif pointed to the bridge on the map and said, "I will put the most elite Legion guards here, and the bridge will be destroyed!" ”

Xiao Yi thought about it and felt that there was no problem: "Okay, then let the dire wolves sweep the surroundings aside, I think they will be very happy to do this." ”

He also said to Van Rikf: "It is still necessary to clean up the surrounding jungle, it is impossible for everyone to live in the forest, you can arrange it, and I will not add to the chaos." ”

Nodding, Van Rikv immediately began to shout that he had not rested for long, and Minfu began to clear the clearing.

Stopping Sharif, who was about to leave, Xiao Yi asked, "How are the young men and griffins cooperating?" ”

These griffons were captured by Edric, it is estimated that they were domesticated in the original Stormwind City, they are not fierce, and their size is larger and stronger than the griffins in Heroes and Invincible, Xiao Yi found ten brave soldiers in the barracks to control them.

In the Elwyn Forest, it doesn't seem to be a good practice to use griffins, but Xiao Yi has no way, you must know that the orcs have enslaved the red dragons, although they don't know the specific strength of these red dragons, the griffins can't beat them, but they don't have any air power, so they definitely can't do it.

The damage to the red dragon from ordinary arrows is also very small before the scale is formed, which is why Sharif knows that the enemy has an air force, and still leaves the marksman in the city of angels, and they are not used to it in the jungle before they have formed a number.

"Very good, sir!" Sharif nodded and said, "Although it is still far from the professional griffin knights, they can already control the griffin for high-altitude reconnaissance. ”

After a pause, Sharif said suspiciously: "I'm sorry sir, I still think that griffin knights are useless, it is difficult for them to give effective damage to the enemy with spears or long swords, if you use crossbow arrows, the air flow in the air will have a great impact on the arrows, and the weight of the knight will also cause a burden on the griffin." ”

Laughing, Xiao Yi said: "I know, this is just an experiment, you go and get busy." ”
