A week later, the forest on the border of Quel'Salas.

"Magnificent and timeless Quel'Thalas, I was a child when I was last here."

When Xu Mochao led the human army up a small hill to overlook the distance, Ouyang Chong, who followed him, couldn't help but sigh.

Xu Mochao didn't comment on this, he turned his head: "Wen Leisa, what about the person who came to pick you up?" ”

Wen Lesa had already regarded herself as Xu Mochao's girlfriend at this time, and was dutifully pinching his shoulder.

All the warriors of Lordaeron took this for granted.

Xu Mochao is the crown prince of Lordaeron, that is, the future king, and Quel'Salas is the prince of their country, Kael'thas Sunstrider, who is equal in status to him. It is said that he was also Gianna's suitor, but he failed to win the competition with Arthas.

As for Wen Lesa, let alone her, even her sister, Sylvanas, the leader of Silvermoon City, is not as good as Gianna in terms of identity.

Besides, now they are appearing as saviors, and it was Quel'Salas who begged them to come, hmph, who let you always stumble on our country when you had nothing to do before?

However, Xu Mochao made it clear that Wen Lesa did not need to do this, and he would not treat Wen Lesa as a substitute for Gianna.

But Winlessa insisted on doing so, and took the job that belonged to the witch.

Since she is willing, Xu Mochao is also happy to enjoy it.

After all, compared to witches who focus on cultivating magic, Windranger is more physically fit.

"He should have arrived, maybe something was delayed on the way", a deep worry appeared on Wen Leisa's face, "This forest has already begun to wither, these damn undead troops, they have destroyed the environment here!" ”

"It's supposed to be a meat grinder."

At this time, Ouyang Chong had already rushed back after patrolling the neighborhood with two witches, with the help of the witch's slowdown, invisibility, and transformation techniques, even if he encountered the undead, he didn't have to worry.

"They forcibly opened a way out", after all, they were also people who had dealt with the undead in Northrend, and knew their attack methods well, "A large area of land here has been turned into a barren land, and from the traces left on the scene, the battle is very fierce, just like we were in Northrend." ”

Winlessa bit her lip tightly and didn't speak.

Ouyang Chong paused and continued, "I estimate that those undead are very likely to be ambushed in front of us, so we must be extra careful when we advance. ”

"That's right, by the way, Winlessa, do you know what the most important thing is to fight the undead?"

Wenlesa shook her head.

Seeing this, Xu Mochao spoke, not only to explain to Wen Leisa, but also to explain it to his army.

Because this army was re-pulled by Uther, and he had no previous experience fighting the undead.

"First, try to avoid sacrifices."

"Your Highness is right, every time our warriors die, their troops become stronger."

It was Gavin Rad, the second leader of the Knights of the Silver Hand, who was very low-key along the way with Xu Mochao, just like he had done when he was by Uther's side before.

"Second, don't go head-to-head with them until you have absolute superiority. This is your forte, Winlessa. ”

Wen Lesa continued to nod, guerrilla warfare is indeed the strength of elves, they can hide in the forest, secretly cast cold arrows, miss a hit, and immediately flee.

"Third, if the two sides are fighting head-on, try not to choose the location of the battle in the middle of nowhere."

"Even if you don't say I'll do it, this kind of terrain makes me feel sick when I see it!"

Another paladin who came to serve as Xu Mochao's deputy said.

This time, the army led by Xu Mochao was carefully selected by him, the entire army was composed of humans, dwarves, and elves, the main force was human knights, dwarf musketeers, and witches, and the air force was composed of dragon eagle knights and griffin riders, in addition to them, there were also a small number of infantry and mortar squads.

Due to the need for rapid marching, he did not enter the battle with mechanized troops such as helicopters and steam tanks.

"Anyone who sees such a scene will not feel comfortable, Sage", noticing the tone of his old friend's speech to Xu Mochao, Gavinrad kindly reminded him, and then asked, "Your Highness, what should we do next?" ”

Sage had always been suspicious of Arthas's entry into the Order of the Silver Hand, especially after the Stotherolm incident, and his dissatisfaction with him reached its peak.

Unexpectedly, the development of things took a turn for the worse, Arthas defeated the mastermind behind the scenes, Melganis returned triumphantly, but Uther's status in the hearts of the people was greatly reduced, and this time he was also sent by him to Xu Mochao as a deputy.

In terms of qualifications, what qualifications does a hairy boy have to lead him?

However, Gavinrad, who was older than him, didn't say anything, so he naturally didn't say anything, although he was dissatisfied, he still seriously abided by his duties as a paladin.

"Wait."

Xu Mochao is not in a hurry, without himself as a death knight to open the way, Xu Mochao believes that Tito Dios will not take this place so quickly, after all, Sylvanas is not a vegetarian.

Of course, the most anxious is Wen Lesa, but she also knows that she can only wait at this time, it has been half a month since she left Quel'Thalas, and if she does not understand the situation, rushing in will inevitably make the entire army passive.

Fortunately, the period of time that made her feel extremely tormented did not last long.

Soon, an elven archer covered in wounds appeared in front of everyone, "Lord Winlessa, it's great, you finally brought reinforcements!" ”

"Eshina Sha Ran! How did you get hurt like this! ”

Wen Lesa was taken aback when she saw this, long before leaving Quel'Salas, Sylvanas had already arranged for Eshnasa to be in charge of docking with her, but she didn't expect that when they met again, his appearance would be so miserable, and it seemed that there was only one breath left.

"A bunch of crypt demons buried them underground, and I was attacked by them while I was on my way!"

As he spoke, he spat out a mouthful of blood, all the arrows he was carrying had been shot, and even the elven longbow in his hand had been broken into two pieces, and there were wounds all over his body, and blood was still oozing out.

"I managed to escape, and they're about to catch up!"

Xu Mochao waved his hand dryly: "Saiqi, you take someone to deal with them, Gavinrad, treat him." ”

Before he could finish speaking, Gavin Rad had already raised the war hammer in his hand, and Eshnashamo was suddenly bathed in a golden light, and was pulled back from the death line in an instant.

"Alright, now just let the priest continue to heal, and it won't be long before you can return to the battlefield."

Gavinrad smiled at the brave elven archer.

Meanwhile, Sage takes a team of musketeers, a few witches, and a few dragon eagle knights on a mission to deal with the crypt demons who are chasing Eshnasa Rim.

"It's better not to bring the Dragon Eagle Knight," Ouyang Chong frowned at this and reminded, "Crypt Demons can use their cobwebs to pull aerial units to the ground, which will instead block the musketeers' shots." ”

Hearing this, Eshnashamo nodded repeatedly, "This captain is right, many of our dragon eagle knights and griffin knights were pulled to the ground by them and ...... by a large number of ghouls."

The thought of the sheer number of ghouls swarming up to him still haunts him.

"Captain Dupont has accompanied the prince on an expedition to Northrend, Sage, bring a squad of infantry, and be sure to protect yourself."

Gavinrad also opened his mouth at this time, and Sage nodded and quickly led the team away.

"Okay, now can you tell us what happened during this time?"

Seeing the prince's warm smile, Eshi Nashabi calmed down and told everything he knew.

Titodios did not attack immediately when he led the army of the undead to the border of Quel'Thalas, but instead carried out a brutal slaughter of the creatures of the forest and then converted them into part of his own army.

Then he used a meat grinder to forcibly blast open the first gate on the border of Silvermoon City, and then relied on the advantage of troops to establish an undead base.

The once vibrant forest was suddenly affected by the evil cursed power, and the leafy meadows and trees turned black as a symbol of destruction and death.

As Xu Mochao said, in a head-on confrontation, the elven troops led by Quel'Salas were no match for the undead at all, and she herself could not defeat Titodios, a powerful Dreaddemon King.

So just five days after Winlessa left Quel'Thalas, the first gate of Silvermoon City fell, and Sylvanas led the remnants of his army to retreat behind the second gate.

The second door cannot be opened by brute force, and requires a special key, the Key of the Moon, to open.

In order to prevent Titodios from finding the key, Sylvanas divided the key into three parts of the moon crystal, which were hidden in three high-level altars, and at the same time blew up the bridge leading to the three regions early.

While Titodios went to find the Moon Crystal, she constantly led the elven troops to repeatedly harass Titodios's troops, which was exactly the tactic Xu Mochao used in Northrend.

However, this is the home of the elves, and they are even more comfortable with it.

Originally, relying on this tactic, they would definitely be able to hold out until now, but they never expected that Tito Dios would take control of the goblin factory here and build a goblin airship, which greatly improved the mobility of the team.

To make matters worse, they coerced the goblin engineers into launching a suicide attack on Quel'Thalas's forces with bombs that self-detonated, causing heavy losses.

About five days ago, Titodios finally collected three moon crystals, combined them into the moon key, and took an airship to the second gate, disarming the protective magic, and officially attacking Silvermoon City, the capital of the elven kingdom of Quel'Thalas.
