Chapter XXXII Meetings
"Thanks to the Templars, we have won. ”
"Victory, I'm afraid not, Knight Leo. ”
The huge Checem Council Hall was filled with the leaders of the Northern Alliance, as well as the surviving officers of Checem, and when Leo shouted victory, Eshara gave a completely different answer.
"Why do you say that, hasn't the orc army been defeated?"
Faced with the archmage's sudden words, Leo looked a little confused.
"We know from the captured orc officers that the true main force of the orcs has long since diverted the direction of the attack, and that most of the orc army, led by Bloodroar, has crossed Mount Morsis and marched towards Teletum in the south. ”
In the council room, Aishara calmly analyzed the current situation carefully to everyone. This hall was originally used by the Chessem nobles to discuss politics, and now it has become the base camp of the Allies. All big and small things are discussed here in one place.
"This is impossible, the Milsis Mountains are not only amazingly high, but also extremely steep, the mountains are covered with snow all year round, not to mention the orcs, even wild beasts are difficult to cross this mountain range, how can the orc army cross it?"
Hearing the archmage's answer, Leo was obviously not convinced, not only Leo was not convinced, but the Chetsum officers present also did not believe that the city he was desperately defending did not stop the orc's attack at all, if what the archmage said was true, then this city defense battle may be just the tip of the iceberg on the orc's offensive road.
"The orcs did not march through the mountain roads, but from the underground, through the mountains through the caves under the mountains, to the southern plains. ”
Aishara continued to explain, and now, more people had questions, and some officers even widened their eyes, from below the mountains?
"You may find it strange and incredible, but you must know that this war has only just begun, and today, we are not facing an ordinary orc Great Chief, but an extremely brutal and cunning Orc Great Chief. He captured and enslaved all the dwarves north of the Millsis Mountains, and gathered them together in his mines to craft weapons and armor for the orcs. In order to open the underground tunnels of Mirsis, Bloodcry did not hesitate to bring most of the dwarves to the bottom of the mountain, ordering them to open the large tunnel that runs from north to south within three months. ”
"Hmm. ”
As soon as Eshara spoke, it immediately caused a discussion among the leaders and officers present.
"Everyone is quiet. ”
Aishara motioned for everyone to calm down and listen to herself.
"The dwarves worked day and night to open up this underground passage, and it is said that when the underground was completed, there were only 5,000 dwarven laborers left, and if any dwarves resisted in the middle, they were all killed or abused to death by the overseers under Bloodroar. ”
"What a brutal monster. ”
After listening to the archmage's explanation, Leo couldn't help but curse loudly.
"So, we're dealing with a small branch of the orcs this time?"
The officer who defended the city still questioned, and although everyone was reluctant to accept it, it was indeed true.
"Yes, in fact, the orc army besieging the city is only about fifty thousand people, and we are all deceived by the blood roar. ”
Faced with the depressed Chetsom garrison officer, Eshara couldn't bear to fight, but had to tell everyone the truth so that everyone could be prepared, and the next battle would be even more difficult, and the scale of the orc all-out war had exceeded everyone's imagination. The Bloodroar mobilized almost every orc on the planet Herrera that could be mobilized this time.
"Fifty thousand orcs, just beat us like this. If you encounter the main orc legion led by Bloodroar himself......"
Officer Chetsum was about to finish, but was stopped by Azhara. In extraordinary times, Aishara didn't want to hear anything that disturbed the morale of the army at this time. Humanity needs faith to defeat the evil and darkness of this world, and at this time, faith is very weak, especially after just going through a vicious battle.
"Wait, Azhara, are you saying that there are only 50,000 orcs besieging Chesem this time?"
As soon as Officer Chetsum finished speaking, the elven lord Arthur began to have questions again.
"Yes, it's only fifty thousand. ”
"Then why don't the orcs just press the big force here and storm Chesem, so they don't have to go around in a big circle and spend so much effort digging that underground tunnel. ”
Arthur's question was reasonable, and the leaders present nodded their heads.
"Maybe even Bloodroar didn't expect the human nobles to be reluctant to send troops to Chesem, right?"
......
The archmage's answer made the scene fall silent again, indeed, this is the biggest problem for the coalition forces at the moment, the orcs have attacked in a big way, but the nobles of Teletham are still chattering and arguing in the palace for their own interests. This is the greatest weakness of human beings, and it is also a point that Blood Roar did not expect.
"Aisara, I think you've already figured out what to do next, right?"
At the end of the meeting, Abdul-Jabbar finally spoke, and the first time he spoke, he forced Ishshara to step down......
"Well, Abdul-Jabbar, you're the one who knows me best. ”
Azhara turned her head to the orc with the intelligence in her eyes, then turned back to the crowd and spoke.
"I think that now, we should hurry south, before the army of Bloody Roar attacks Teletham, and inform the people there, especially the nobles who are as timid as worms, that it is their weakness and greed for life and fear of death, that the whole war has led to the extremely passive state of humanity from the very beginning. As long as the council of nobles agrees to send troops, the war may have a slight turnaround. Then, Abdul-Jabbar, you take your people to the north and rescue the dwarves there, now that the orc army has entered the south, there are not many people left in the northern base, and you should go over to rescue the dwarves at this time, it should be the best time. ”
After Azhara finished speaking to the crowd, he turned to look at Jabbar, knowing that with Jabbar's character, he would not refuse his request in public.
**, this old man, actually assigned himself such a "glorious" task in public, going deep into the orc Ingres mine to rescue the dwarves, it seems that this is a glorious mission, but in fact it is full of crises, but it is impossible for the coalition forces to run to the north specifically to save the dwarves, and Teletham in the south can't even take care of himself now, let alone send troops to the north, so if you think about it carefully, it seems that the task of rescuing the dwarves can only go by yourself.
The Chetsum meeting ended in such a heavy atmosphere, and the coalition forces began to prepare to move south to support Telletum, while Jabbar had to take up his tomahawk and take his squad to re-embark on the journey north, where thousands of dwarven miners were waiting to rescue him, but no one would know what difficulties and hardships would lie ahead.
"Azhara, didn't you say you were going to arrange for me to meet Rafael?"
After the meeting, it was already late at night, and seeing that the day was about to end like this, Jabbar couldn't hold back anymore and stopped Aishara......
