Chapter 56: The Beginning of War
"Get out!" If it weren't for the enemy, Dallas would have beaten this sissy to the point where he didn't even know the. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Ashiba is not interested in arguing with him anymore, since the Tolbaine family is now crossing the river with mud and Bodhisattva, and it is difficult to protect themselves, then why not take this opportunity to find an arrogant one, not to cut him, his own thoughts are not reachable.
"Let's go find that lowly undead and see who else can protect him this time. "Assi's teeth must be reported in Dalaran that many schools are famous, otherwise they would not have taken the opportunity to send Riptide City to drive this scourge out and hone it, who would have thought that such a big change would happen in a simple mission.
Only the angry Dallas, the knights of Seriyok, are left in the silent city lord's mansion, and the messenger from the Undercity began to urge Lilith to prepare to leave, although the Undercity has a lot of hatred for ogres, but the distant water can't save the near fire, and by the time the Undercity's reinforcements arrive on the battlefield, Riptide City may have already been reduced to ruins in the war.
The float boat rose quickly and headed towards the Undercity, Dallas's plan to have something to do with Lilith did not succeed after all, Lilith begged the messenger of the Undercity several times if he could leave this place with Fuji, the messenger asked, do you think the undead boy will go with you? Lilith's heart secretly had to turn into a gloomy sigh: "Indeed, that shy boy has grown up now, more and more fierce, resolute, I think he has also found what he wants to insist on, the world is so big, will there be a chance to see you again in the future, brother" , The girl's mind is always sad, thinking about it, she leaned on the porthole of the spaceship and fell asleep, and the clouds outside the glass window broke into the girl's dream.
When Dallas came to Delmar's side with the news of the departure of the mage group, the always calm Delmar knight's emotions were a little out of control, angrily pinched the metal hilt in his hand, and also complained a little, his explanation at the time was too abstract, "Joseric, you are too upright in extraordinary times, if Fario is here, he will definitely kidnap Assi without hesitation, and force the mage group to participate in the war, even if he offends Dalaran." ”
Dallas explained, "It's useless, Captain Delmar, I thought so, but later I found out that he had a precious teleportation ring on his hand, ready to be moved to a safe place. ”
"Well, now I've sent someone to ask the old lord of the Valley of Refuge for help, and the Undercity will send reinforcements to help us, but either way, it will be at least two days before we arrive in Riptide. ”
Joseric: "Commander, can we hold on for two days?"
Delmar: " Obviously not, relying on our own strength can at most support the ogre two rounds of attack, just now our left flank infantry regiment was almost completely wiped out, and now I temporarily diluted the troops in the middle and right flanks and replenished them to the left flank, but demolishing the east wall and making up the west wall is just delaying our defeat, the key is that our powerful musket corps is now suffering heavy casualties, and there is no strong enough long-range fire to suppress, on the flat ground, we are far from being the opponent of the ogre warriors, and my sacred realm is opened up to three times a week, which is already the limit of my ability. ”
Delmar blamed herself a little: "We haven't experienced the baptism of a major war in Riptide City for many years, and I knew that on this day, after stepping into the Golden Rank, I would spend a little more energy practicing starry sky magic and become a commander, and today would not be like this." ”
Dallas was relieved, "Uncle, you can't say that, personal energy is always limited, and the inauguration commander will take up a lot of personal cultivation time, communicate with the constellations, comprehend the way of war, and study strategic magic, which will not improve personal strength much, but will drag down the cultivation and promotion, and the highest personal cultivation of the war lords of Azeroth is only an epic level, and this is the only case, and only those who have no hope of being promoted to a legend will have no choice but to take up the post of war commander." ”
For a while, everyone was a little speechless, can the remaining more than 3,000 soldiers see the sun of tomorrow, if the battle is defeated, how many of the ordinary people who have been protected by the Torbaine family for hundreds of years can escape from purgatory, the scorching sun is scorching, but it can't dispel the chill in people's hearts, even if the troops are so tight, the generals still have to draw out a part of their forces to maintain the established law and order, without the protection of the tall city walls, the human station is flat, and the selfish nobles no longer shout to unify Arashi and restore the glory of the empire, but to take this property, maids, and private soldiers hurriedly flee from this dangerous ancient capitalThe rich merchants were desperate to find that the nobles who had enjoyed their worship in the past had abandoned them, and for a time the people were panicking, and the common people were desperately praying that the Tolbain family could keep them safe, but the ferocity and strength of the ogre were obvious to all, and now every minute and every second was a torment for them.
And these tormenting days, the people under the control of the Syndicate have long been accustomed to it, and the walls that used to be like a world away from each other, making them and the people in the city seem to live in two worlds, and now everyone finally wants to be the same, and the people of the slums laugh heartbreakingly, showing rows of miserable white and gloomy teeth.
Dallas was indignant: "The damned nobles, except for a few who are determined to stay and want us to live and die together, the rest have fled, they have long forgotten their original oath, and all that flows in their bodies is selfish and vicious blood." ”
The knight of Delma looked tired: "Let them go, the trees are falling and scattered, it has been like this since ancient times, but these tens of thousands of civilians are the victims of war, Dallas, I and Joserick are in front of us, you are responsible for moving as many civilians as possible to the Valley of Refuge, I have a hunch that this time the ogre is prepared, we may not hold out until tomorrow." ”
Dallas refused, "I am the heir to the family, I stay, I can't leave in times of crisis." ”
"This is an order, there is a country to have a home, there is a people to have a king, the country will not die, the family will not be chaotic, the people will not be scattered, the king will not fall, you take these people away as much as possible, they are all the hope of my Torbain family's comeback, the country reborn in the war will be stronger, this is not a flight, it is a major strategic shift, look at those fleeing nobles** Fraudulent merchants, sheep as gentle people, only the fire of war can make my Torbair family reborn from the ashes, this needs to be done by you, the heir, the lord of the old guy, after experiencing the change of the blood moon, more and more I feel that my limit is approaching, the future is in your hands, go quickly! This is an order, I don't want to say it a third time. ”
"Take care" and say goodbye to all the generals who are like masters, fathers, and brothers, the huge man walked away with tears in his eyes, Dallas has learned more in just a few days than he has learned in the previous twenty years, and the change of fate is often in an instant, and mediocrity and excellence may only be separated by an unforgettable experience.
