Battle of Gilneth (1)

"Sylvanas, he's gone, it's all right. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"I didn't expect it to be like this...... Prince Kael'thas is right, I'm an elf, and if I go to you, it will definitely affect your father's mood, especially the admiral, I know him..."

"My father is not an unreasonable man, he respects my choices, and he has always been very important to you Elven Ranger and your sister Aurelia, so he will surely understand you. ”

Although I was skeptical that Gianna was not necessarily telling the truth, I still had to pretend to believe her and give Sylvanas affirmation and confidence.

"My father was the same to you, so he voted out among the ministers and elected Winlessa to be the official paladin. Seeing that she was a little moved by Gianna's words, I also firmly persuaded Sylvanas, "So many difficulties have been overcome, don't we face such things together?"

"I..."

"Someone seems to have told His Highness Arthas that life and death depend on each other and will never be abandoned, can such difficulties be retreated?"

"Moreover, if you are going to live in Lordaeron in the future, I am sure that Winlessa will be very happy. ”

Melwin and Sasarian were also trying to persuade Sylvanas, and these words finally made her no longer hesitate, or rather not be confused.

"I see....we should hurry to the royal city of Lordaeron, and hear from Prince Kael'thas that the war seems to be going on there. ”

"Yes, let's go now, but you can call it the royal city there in the future. ”

"Yes.... Sylvanas nodded with a smile and quickly returned to her usual form. And we didn't hesitate, just headed south on our way home.

On the way, in addition to thinking about explaining this to the elders, I was also thinking about another thing that surprised me, that is, about this war, yes, I know that werewolves are very strong, but compared to the guard dragon Alexstasa, it should not be worth mentioning, so this war is not over yet, so I can't help but wonder. Moreover, Kael'thas didn't mention anything about the dragons helping us, so the only explanation is that the Red Dragon Queen didn't come to support us personally at all, and even said that the Red Dragons didn't help us, or the number of people who came was very limited?

I wondered, especially when I saw all the empty houses that had been plundered along the way, and my heart became tense. Yes, this illustrates a very serious problem. That's where the threat of werewolves has penetrated, and even worse.

At ten o'clock in the evening, near a small walled fortress in the north-west, I got a fairly good situation where all the inhabitants of the neighborhood had been safely moved and settled. And a young garrison general is stationed here with a sizable number of troops, through whom we get more information about the situation with Gilneth...

......................

"The battle began to be one-sided, and the appearance of werewolves made our front line collapse in an instant as soon as the battle began. ”

"I can imagine how Uther coped with this. ”

"Lord Uther was sending your main force to support your battle against the plague creatures in the Valley of the Hearth. ”

"Well... I see, you continue..."yes, I remembered those things...

The commander of the front, General Gallisus, decided to join forces with the army of Uther, who had returned from the rescue in the north, to the royal city, and then defend against the enemy together, but even with this gathering of the national forces at that time, the royal city was still in danger, until most of your Northern Expeditionary Army rushed back to support here, and after His Highness Gianna's father led Kurtilas to sneak attack the enemy's rear, the war became somewhat manageable, but the number of werewolves continued unabated, and the situation was still very critical. ”

"Until the last two weeks, werewolves' combat effectiveness has dropped significantly. ”

"Yes, it was only recently that we realized this fact. ”

"What about them now, we Lordaeron should be able to crush Gilnes. ”

"But the enemy has now retreated to the fortress they had built a long time ago, and has been reinforcing its defenses. ”

"Grey Sideburns is pretty self-aware, but it's not a problem for us. "I think about the combat power of our two countries, yes, even if he does, I don't think he can stop us at all. "And what about Uther? Did he fight back?"

"No, he's just ordering his troops to re-establish their defenses on the front lines and clear them of the scattered werewolves that are harassing other cities. ”

"Yes, that's his usual style. I sighed at my teacher's paladin tactics, but I suddenly realized that I shouldn't belittle my teacher in public, so I changed my tone and subject. "Is the Red Dragon Queen supporting us?"

"The Red Dragon Queen didn't come, but Mage Luo Ning brought a dozen red dragons of various sizes led by one of her spouses to garrison the royal city. The general answered my question, but I was disappointed by the result. It's not because we don't have that much power to help us defeat the enemy, but because Frost is sad and can't be purified by her for the time being.

This feeling was written on her face, and it was easily seen by Gianna.

"Crassus is still here, I can let him help you transfer it to the Red Dragon Queen, and then purify that powerful weapon. ”

"Yes. Yes, but it's still a hidden danger for this thing to be put here. ”

"Purge weapons? What kind of weapons would that be. When the young general heard Gianna's words, he immediately showed a curious look, yes, although he was about the same age as me, but he was still too young to be a general, so in the case of our age, once we gossiped, he also subconsciously revealed his nature at this age.

However, this sentence also made me realize his peculiarity, yes, a young general can command a garrison that is not too small, which in itself shows that his identity may not be simple. There was no reason why I didn't know the details of what was going on with him, so I confessed to him like a friend.

"It's a very sharp weapon. I spoke to him in the tone of a young man's exchange, and my subconscious was holding the sword of the red dragon that had not been returned to Manik.**, but the general in front of me mistakenly thought that I was talking about this weapon, and he looked at it suspiciously, and tested it with a holy light that was not too weak. Soon, we both looked at each other with puzzled looks.

"Are you the Silver Hand?" I knew that except for a few of us, the rest of the Silver Hand members, especially the younger members or trainee members, would be proud to wear its standard, but he didn't, and as far as I know about it now, he is also a young man who has always preferred to be recognized, so there is no reason why he can't use the Light, and his shaking shake confirms my idea, but..."How can you use the Light?"

"It was my father, Alexandros Mograini, who taught me, but he thinks I'll have to go through a lot more training now before I can be introduced to one of you. ”

Listening to him say this, I seemed to understand that there were people who objected to me becoming an official silver hand, and indeed, no matter what, I was still too young, which made it unacceptable for the old paladins who used age as the standard of status... I shook my head slightly, not thinking about the past, but returning to the point of our conversation, which was about his identity, and something I knew, namely the Ember Bringer, who should be him.

"You're his son, Mograini?" I said with some emotion, but my companions gave me cold eyes, yes I said it like nonsense, because even an idiot knew that Alexandros Mograini's son must be called Mograini.

"I mean, are you his eldest son or his second son. "I was going to say his name, but unfortunately I suddenly forgot the names of his brothers, and only remembered his weapon that could match Frost Sorrow.

"I am his second son, Darian. He bowed to us and answered his questions. "I'm puzzled, I don't feel the evil power of the weapon you said, and there is even an indescribable sacredness, so why do you say you need to purify it?"

"Because it's not this weapon, kid, but..."Muradin, who had an intersection with his father, wanted to remind Darian, but this behavior was stopped by Gianna, yes, she didn't want too many people to know about this weapon, after all, that kind of ** is not something that ordinary people can bear. Soon Muradin immediately recognized something and immediately covered his mouth. But this gesture has undoubtedly been revealed, and we have something to hide from this young friend.

Perhaps this would make him feel uneasy, and in order to cement our friendship, I finally chose a compromise that tested his strength.

"Then can you sense where there is an evil aura that needs to be purified, or where is it?"

When Darien heard this, he immediately used the Holy Light to search for the evil aura, but he didn't notice it for a long time. Still, there were a few movements that convinced me that he had felt the breath. That is, he had looked at the baggage that sealed the frost sorrow several times, but he didn't dare to confirm it. Perhaps it was the superficial light that deceived him and kept him from rejecting authority, the idea that his traditional light was flawless.

"I'm sorry, I don't have the strength to find it, maybe..."

Darien glanced at it again, but didn't say anything....but I felt something to tell him.

"Maybe it's hidden? Or maybe it's cloaked in light. I said this, and this time he pointed there, and then looked at me, waiting for my confirmation. "That's right, that's it, an evil weapon suppressed by the Light... You should have discovered it, but you didn't dare to believe it, or dare to deny that conventional wisdom. ”

"Yes... I think..."

"All that shines the Light is good?"

"Hmm..."

"Actually, not often, only the light emanating from the righteousness that comes from the heart is righteous, and those who wear the disguise of the light are often more evil than the power of the shadows. "I know that maybe when Mer Ganniel's soul invades Da Sohan to form the Scarlet Crusade, he will slowly understand this truth, but time has passed, maybe he will not have that experience. But even then, I'd better teach him something. "You have to trust your inner judgment, and don't be constrained by some dogma to blind yourself to that kind of justice, or you may be misled by the forces of evil..."

Actually, I wanted to go on, but realizing that my companions were looking down at me again made me realize something, so I didn't continue my tirade.

Yes, I say this as if I were trying to persuade him to change his ways. And most of the time, the thoughts I show are a little sinister, so they all feel that I say this to a large extent unwanted. Gianna and Sylvanas, in particular, looked at me so much that I felt ashamed.

Maybe I'm thinking too much about it, but I'm pretty sure that they don't want me to continue.

"Well, let's not talk about that. I motioned to everyone, and immediately changed the subject. I think you already have the strength of a paladin, and I will pass on your current power to control the Light to the Archbishop, and I believe he will make you one of us as soon as possible.

"Really?"

"It should be fine. "I don't think it's a difficult task, after all, the biggest difference between the archbishop and other old paladins is that they value youth, and as the son of old Mograine, I believe that the members of the Senate will not have negative opinions.

"That's really thankful, I think my brother will be happy for me. ”

"You mean Renault?" I thought of his brother's jealous character, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, but I couldn't say that. "I think so....we'll rest here for the night, and set off the next day, hoping that you will continue to guard this safety, and when we completely destroy the source of werewolf power, everyone will be able to live a normal life. ”

We weren't talking about anything, but we were moving everyone in, and because of the space, we decided to set up camp outside the town, to keep them safe, and to keep us occupied, and to make room for us. As for the food, we have brought a lot of it, and we can put the surplus here for the villagers in need.

I am a little ashamed to look at the people who are weak but still have great respect for us. Yes, although the grain harvest has been decent all these years, just in the midst of the natural disaster, a fire at my Feldstone farm in Andorhar almost wiped out these reserves in order to spread the contaminated grain. And now the werewolves are raging, which makes the situation of the people even worse. So such a move is somewhat of a psychological comfort.

However, I know that in order to truly eliminate the current threat, it will not be able to solve the problem by relying only on Uther's stalemate, and the garrison will bring more burden to the people, not to mention, the most dangerous thing is that once the werewolves find a new source of strength, they will come back again, and I think there is only one way to solve this problem, which is to completely annex it like Alterac, use the way of war to divert the current contradiction of food shortage, and can completely eliminate the threat of werewolves and strengthen our strength, I thought so, and I have made some plans in my heart for the next period of time。
