Chapter 254: Retreat Plan
Arthas was very satisfied, his current battle results were very great, and taking the entire forest, the undead army would have a foothold. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Gamas, who had been reprimanded by Arthas, didn't dare to say a word anymore, and if he didn't get it right, it would really disappear, and if he hadn't been of some use to Naozu, he probably wouldn't have appeared again.
On the other hand, on the side of Silvermoon City, there was a bleak situation in the outpost. All the soldiers did not raise their morale in the slightest, and they all gathered in the outpost, standing or sitting. Andy glanced at the soldiers outside through the crack in the door of the wooden house, and couldn't help but shake his head. Morale is a thing that may never be found again once it is gone.
"General, we can't retreat." Truss hurriedly said, "Behind us is Silver Moon City, and it has been less than two days from here to Silver Moon Chen, and the city has no time to react at all." ”
"Can you do anything better?" Sylvanas looked at Truss and said, "This outpost can't be used as the main body of defense at all, and the number of these soldiers to resist the undead is far from enough!" ”
Truss was immediately speechless, the current conditions were clear to him at a glance, there were no strong fortifications, the soldiers had no morale, they were still an absolute disadvantage in numbers, and everything was not good for the side of Silvermoon City.
Andy frowned and listened to the quarrel between the two, and couldn't help but feel irritated in his heart, if Sylvana Sken had let Uther's knights cross the border, maybe the battle situation would not have been so bad.
Sylvanas decided to abandon the outpost and retreat to Silvermoon City. With its strong walls and timely logistics, the outpost was not worth the manpower to defend from any point of view. What's more, Sylvanas knew a situation that Truss didn't even know about, and that was that Silvermoon City was not as simple as they saw it.
But Truss resolutely refused, retreating back to Silvermoon City meant abandoning the entire forest, and when the undead legion soldiers came to the city, that was the beginning of the real panic.
Sylvanas didn't know this, but, as she said, there was no good solution now.
"Whether you fight or retreat, you have to make a decision." Andy glanced at them and said, "I don't know why Arthas stopped attacking, but one thing is for sure, he will definitely attack more violently." For some unknown reason, Naozu chose Silvermoon City as the first target. ”
The two people who quarreled were silent for an instant, Andy was right, if you can't decide at this time, then you will all die here, the quarrel has become meaningless.
"No matter what, I'm not going to retreat." Truss made her position clear, and she was extremely firm, interrupting Sylvanas who was trying to refute and continued, "I will defend here with a part of my soldiers, General, you and the rest of the men will rush to Silvermoon City at night, and I will try to buy you time." ”
Sylvanas was startled and said, "You're going to die, and you're ......"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Truss again: "There is no point in arguing now, and the movement of all retreats is very large, and the undead will definitely attack in advance." Don't fight anymore, you hurry up and hit the road! ”
Sylvanas knew that Truss had made up his mind to die, after all, he had guarded the Silvermoon Forest for more than ten years, and he was really unwilling to watch the enemy completely occupy the forest. So I'd rather die in the forest than go back.
That night, Sylvanas took most of the defending forces, including the elite garrisons of Silver Moon Chen, who had not yet entered the battle, and rushed to Silver Moon Chen in the dark.
Truss looked at his remaining soldiers, these are soldiers who have followed him for many years, they think about the same as herself, and would rather die than retreat!
"Brothers, maybe our lives will end tomorrow, but even death can't let the undead pass through here easily." Truss looked at the soldiers, suddenly stretched out his arms and shouted, "I'd rather die than retreat!" ”
"I'd rather die than retreat!"
The roar of the warriors shook the sky, and although they knew that it was a certain death, even if they died, they would bite off a piece of the enemy's flesh.
Arthas was still immersed in the joy of conquering the forest, and had no idea about Silvermoon City's retreat plan, and his gargoyle scouts only patrolled the movement in front of the outpost.
As for Andy, it was also halfway through the road that he broke away from the main army and ran alone in the direction of Lordaeron.
As it was about to dawn, Andy saw a group resting in the woods, each wearing silver armor and a sign of the Silver Hand on their chests.
"It's coming pretty fast!" Andy muttered and ran quickly.
"Who?" The sentry had actually discovered Andy.
"It's me!" Andy waved his hand and motioned for them to put down their weapons.
When Uther saw Andy, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's going on inside?" ”
"Very bad, Sylvanas is very stubborn, she doesn't agree to let you cross the border to help in the war." Andy said, "But now we can't manage so much, if Silver Moon Chen is breached, will the human world in the south be finished together!" ”
"What then?" Uther snapped, he really didn't want to see Lordaeron before.
"You and your knights, at the edge of the forest, search for the undead who have been scattered alone or out of the army, and then kill them." Andy said quickly, "I still have to go back to Silvermoon City, I promised Sylvanas, and I don't want to break my word." ”
"What's the matter, it's so dangerous there!" Layla walked over, looking anxious.
Andy glanced at her and said, "I have to go back, I have no choice." Don't stay here either, take the rat and Bobo back to Stormwind, it's safer there. Andy told Lyra to run out early in the morning to inform Uther and hurry closer to the interior of the forest, so Layla didn't experience the previous two big battles.
"You can't be fine!" Leila bit her lip and said, she is a little inseparable from Andy now, if it wasn't for Andy, she might have died a long time ago. Although he didn't admit it for various reasons at the time, his heart was already loose.
Layla looked at Andy's determined eyes, and suddenly stepped forward and hooked Andy's neck, her bloodless lips covering Andy's mouth.
Andy's eyes were shocked, he didn't expect that Laila would give him a sudden kiss in front of so many people.
Layla let go of Andy and flew on her horse in the direction of Lordaeron, tears already pouring out of her eyes like a flood. She didn't dare to look back, she was afraid that she would never be able to leave again, and she couldn't do anything here, but a burden to distract Andy.
Andy watched Lyra's back disappear, nodded at Uther, and also ran in the direction of Silvermoon City. By the time he caught up with Sylvanas' army, they were almost in Silvermoon City, and Sylvanas was so preoccupied that he didn't notice that Andy had disappeared for so long.
