Chapter 261: Battle of Silvermoon City: Kael'thas Stratagem II.
Hearing about Kael'tham's crazy plan, everyone gasped.
It's in the yes... It's crazy.
Such a plan would be tantamount to surrendering Silvermoon City to the undead, and if they could use the natural advantage brought by the Well of the Sun, as Kael'thas said, their chances of victory would certainly increase by a few points.
But if they still can't resist the undead's attack, then the sacrifices they made before are completely meaningless, and they are equivalent to cutting themselves off.
It's no wonder that Archmage Rothman, Master Solanlian and others can't agree, according to their age, they are already old people, and they really can't agree with such a crazy plan.
However, Kael'thas was not in a hurry, he understood the concerns of the two archmages, so he smiled and continued: "I understand the worries of the two of you, and to be honest, if there is another better way now, I will definitely not take risks. ”
"But you have also seen that now the internal and external troubles cannot be solved, although Silvermoon City can rely on the sacrifices of the soldiers to defend for another week, or even two weeks, but these are meaningless sacrifices, according to the current situation, Silvermoon City will be lost sooner or later, so why are we... What makes more sense not to let him lose it?"
"What's more pointy to lose, may I ask Your Highness, what does this mean" Haduron Mingyi was confused, while Sylvanas on the other side did not say a word, staring at Kael'thas with blue eyes.
"Trap!!"
Kael'thas raised his eyebrows, his blue eyes flashed with a hint of wisdom, and he continued: "I have secretly ordered the Firewing troops to place elemental enchantments in various hidden places in Silvermoon City, a total of more than two thousand five hundred, and after those monsters are stationed in Silvermoon City, I will order Colonel Firewing to detonate these elemental enchantments, and when the time comes, even if they are immortal Scourge Legions, I am afraid they will have to suffer heavy casualties." ”
"In this way, the tide of the battle will be more favorable to us. ”
It has to be said that in history, Kael'thas Sunstrider was a crazy opinion leader, he changed the name of his people to the Blood Elves, and left the Outlands to join the demon Illidan Fury, all of which can be said to be walking a tightrope.
But no matter what posterity says about his character and style, it is undeniable that Kael'thas is willing to make any sacrifice for the sake of his people and country, as well as any... In the eyes of others, it seems to be a frenzied move.
Everyone was silent, and if the previous plan could be described as "crazy", now this plan can be described as "madness".
"Your Royal Highness, do you know what you're doing now?" Archmage Rothman's voice was hoarse.
"Of course!!"
Kael'thas said loudly, with an irrefutable momentum, "Extraordinary times, very coping! It is precisely because I have recognized the situation that I have come up with a plan that can save the glory of the High Elves in such a rotten situation, I hope... I hope you will support my decision!!"
After three minutes of silence, a female voice rang out.
"I support His Highness Kael'thas in his decision!"
The crowd followed the prestige, and it was the Ranger General Sylvanas Windranger.
Sensing everyone's shocked or suspicious gazes, after glancing at Kael'thas and Kael'thas, Sylvanas spoke, "As His Royal Highness the Prince said, extraordinary times, very coping! Well, it's a bit risky, but now that the undead are in the city, if we don't take some unconventional measures, then you and I will be food for those monsters. ”
"So..."
Speaking of which, Sylvanas walked up to Kael'thas and gave a big salute, "On behalf of the Windranger family, I unconditionally support His Royal Highness's decision. ”
"I support it too!!"
As soon as Sylvanas finished speaking, Haduron Mingyi and Lannather also bowed slightly, they also trusted Kael'thas judgement very much.
In the next few seconds, in addition to Lotherma Theron, who was still fighting against the undead on the battlefield and was not present at the meeting, Lady Carbonia, Baron Sangunar, and Grand Technician Tyron Nikas also spoke in agreement.
"You..."
Rothman paused for a moment, not reacting for a while.
The great star sorcerer Solan Lianne, who was sitting next to him, closed her eyes and thought for two seconds, the silver-haired lady opened her brown eyes, and a flash of starlight was fleeting behind her, and she spoke, "So, may I ask Your Highness Kael'thas that after retreating to Queldanus Island, do you have a feasible plan to fight against the undead scourge?"
"Of course, Lady Solanlian!"
Kael'thas smiled confidently and explained in detail,
"After using Silvermoon City as bait and successfully ambushing the undead Scourge, I surmise that their number must be less than 40,000. Doubt it, ma'am, elemental traps are as powerful as you, but they know quite well that they can devour the undead without leaving them all corpses. ”
"And when they finally arrive at Queldanus Island, where the Sunrage, Firewing, and Guardian of the Spellbreakers await them, where their proud numerical superiority will no longer exist, and we, blessed by the Well of the Sun, will fear no threat, and leave their leaders to the Father's Flame Strike. ”
Solanlian stopped talking.
And although Archmage Rothman on the side is a bit stubborn and conservative, this is not a straw bale. Obviously, this is the best response at the moment.
After thinking for a moment, he slowly raised his head and met everyone's gaze, "Since that's the case, then... I agree with His Highness's plan. ”
After everyone had spoken, the atmosphere in the surveillance hall fell silent again, and after more than ten seconds, Kael'thas's voice broke the atmosphere,
"Don't be so pessimistic, since I can come up with this plan, I am naturally sure, I might as well tell you that every day, those monsters are trying to break through our defenses, every time they fight, the undead gathered outside Silver Moon City will double, every hour, we will have more than a dozen warriors sacrificed, and there is not much time left for us! I don't want to see sacrifices again, even if it is sacrifice, I hope it is a meaningful sacrifice!"
Looking at his subordinates who gradually changed from cloudy to clear, Kael'thas nodded with satisfaction, he stretched out his left hand, raised it high, and said in a strong voice: "I believe! The blazing sun will eventually melt evil, and Silvermoon City, Quel'Thallas will never perish! For Quel'Thalas, for Queldore!"
"Silvermoon City, never fall!"
"Silvermoon City, never fall !!"
Everyone present, even the most important archmage Rothman, and the elderly great star sorcerer Solan Lian, raised their left hands at this moment, and at this moment, in the eternal darkness, there seemed to be a glimmer of light.
