Chapter 273: Oppression
On this day, more than 200,000 elves were driven out of Padektin, the main city of Tedalo, by the troops of the human race, and it was said before that there were about 450,000 elves in the city, and before Ye Junwen and the first batch of people they sent back were about 50,000, and there were still 400,000 left, so why only 200,000 people came out, except for some people who had starved to death, in fact, there were still many elves who were unwilling to leave the main city.
Yes, after all, they have lived in the main city since they were children, although the main city has now been occupied by the Terrans, but they are still unwilling to leave their hometown, so when the soldiers of the Terrans come to drive them away, they directly express their unwillingness to leave, and they will die here or something.
The soldiers of the Terran didn't care about them, and the marshal didn't order that all the people who didn't leave would die, so they gathered the people who were willing to leave a little, and then all gathered them together and let them leave, and the rest of the people didn't care about them, anyway, they had scavenged all the things that could be looted in the city in the past few days, and it was none of their business how these elven people lived, let them figure out their own way.
The 200,000 elven people didn't bring anything with them at all, and set off empty-handed. The elven clan has some similar compatriot feelings among themselves, so they are relatively loving, especially in this heavy pressure environment, everyone is a sufferer, so they also support each other and find a way out of the forest together, of course, the elven soldiers on the side of the collar have also received the news in advance and greeted them on the other side of the forest.
The hostages were released, although not all, but the result was also very satisfactory to all the elves, after all, most of them had returned. However, what to do with these 250,000 people (counting the ones who came back before) is still a headache. The first problem, of course, is the food.
After all, the city has been captured by the Terrans, so the things in it are all Terrans, and they rob them with reason, which leads to most of the elven people not eating at all in the past few days, but fortunately, the elves have a relatively good physique, even if they haven't eaten for three or four days, they can still have some action, otherwise these elves may not be able to cross the forest and join their troops.
However, although their physique is slightly better than that of humans, they are not starving to death, and many weak elves in the city have starved to death. If they don't eat anymore, it is estimated that they will not last long, and the only thing they can eat is, of course, military rations, which makes Ilwen have an abnormal headache.
Yes, they do have military rations, the army that joined them a few days ago brought a lot of food, but the problem is that first of all, there is no military rations that can be supplied to 250,000 people, and secondly, this is military rations, if the people eat it, what will the army eat? If the soldiers of the army do not have enough to eat, how can they face the enemy?
However, it is useless to say this, because the concept of the elves is that everyone is equal, so there is no such thing as you are a soldier and you come first, so there is no need to discuss this matter, there is something for everyone to eat together, so there is no choice in distributing food, and the question that Ilwen has to consider now is where to get the food.
Originally, if they still had the dwarves as an ally, they might be able to tide over this difficulty, but now in order to get back their people, the dwarves have been offended, and the other party will definitely not help them anymore. Yi Erwen can't find any other way now, so she can't go to Ye Junwen.
She can probably guess what Ye Junwen means, the other party is willing to put people back, it is estimated that she can also think of the current situation, there are only two forces around here that can provide food, they and the dwarf clan, and now Ye Junwen has used a trick to make them hate the dwarf clan, and the only way is to find him. It's obvious that Ye Junwen is waiting for this, do you remember what Ye Junwen said about letting the elves be the dogs of their human race? If they are willing, Ye Junwen will probably provide food, after all, if you bite a dog and bite a person, you have to feed it, right? As for Ye Junwen, he just returned the food he had snatched from the elven people to them, and it was not a loss.
Yi Erwen felt that Ye Junwen meant this, but she definitely couldn't accept this result, they were noble elves and darlings of nature, how could they be dogs of despicable humans. Not only that, if Ye Junwen's plan for this despicable villain succeeded, Yi Erwen would also be extremely uncomfortable.
"Let's transfer......," Ilwen thought for a moment, and said to his general, "to the western region of Tegmera, we should be able to make it to that side by picking and hunting along the way." ”
"This ...... At present, the people who have come back don't have any physical strength, and even if they have to go, they can't do it now. The general here said, because he looked at Ilwen's meaning as if he was ready to leave now.
"No, we must go immediately, if all this is arranged by the Terrans, they will definitely have the next move, but they shouldn't have thought that we would start acting immediately, and if we suddenly set off now, it should catch the other party off guard." Ilwen said.
The general of the elven clan felt that what Yi Erwen said was also a little reasonable, and just wanted to say something, suddenly a soldier of the elven clan rushed in and said: "Your Royal Highness, the big thing is not good, the troops of the human race have been dispatched!" ”
"What?" Yi Erwen was directly stunned, "The troops have been dispatched, how many people are there?" ”
"It should be...... Pouring out of the nest. "They're already walking through the forest, and the target should be us." ”
"Damn." Yi Erwen didn't expect Ye Junwen to act so fast, he really didn't even let them breathe, as soon as he put the people back, most of them had to eat a mouthful of food and regained a little strength, and the human race came over directly, what should I do now? This was really arranged by the Terrans, otherwise it would not have been possible to dispatch the whole army so quickly, the assembly of the army will take time, and the other party must have already begun to assemble in advance. Of course, it's useless to think about this now, so let's deal with it quickly.
"Her Royal Highness, what should I do?" The elven general asked.
"Get everyone ready to flee at once." Ilwen doesn't think that she can beat the Terran troops now with more people, although they now have nearly 300,000 people in the barracks, but most of them are just ordinary civilians, they don't have much combat effectiveness, not to mention, these people have been hungry for three or four days, and they have just received a little food, and they haven't even recovered their physical strength. The elven clan also knew that they couldn't defeat the Terran troops now, and if the Terran had directly attacked them before, they would have run away a long time ago, but Ye Junwen hadn't fought in the past few days.
"Evacuate in which way?" It was not surprising for the elven general to hear Ilwen's order to evacuate, and he also felt that he could not fight, but the problem was to retreat that way.
"North...... North. Ilwen hesitated slightly, then said.
"North?" The general was slightly stunned, the reason is very simple, because the north is not the territory of their country, as I said before, the north is the territory of the Mazdor Kingdom, so Ilwen means to let them run above the border of the dwarves?
"If the Terran forces are dispatched now, we can't run to the east and west at all, and we can only retreat from the north." Ilwen said.
"In that case, we're going to cross the borders of the dwarves?" The general asked.
"No way." Ilwen said, "Anyway, let's do it first." ”
"Yes." The general could only nod and go to give the order. It is true that it is impossible to retreat to the west now, although they also want to do so, but it is obvious that according to the speed of their movements, if they go west, they will be directly intercepted by the Terrans, and they will not be able to run through it at all.
"Inform the Guards and have them prepare to meet the enemy." Ilwen said again.
"What? I...... I see. The general was stunned for a moment, then nodded. Yes, Ilwen meant to leave a part of the army behind to fend off the Terrans. Now the marching speed of the elves is slow, so even if they flee to the north, they will be caught up by the Terran troops, so a part of the army needs to stay behind, and the guards that Yierwen said are the 20,000 troops who escaped from the main city before, and let them be responsible for intercepting the Terran troops.
Soon all the elven people knew the news, and they knew that the Terran troops were chasing after them again, and these elven people were also frightened, and their first reaction was to run. They didn't have much to pack, and soon they all began to retreat towards the north under the guidance of the soldiers.
Ilwen still stayed in the barracks, and soon she received further news, the Terran troops were indeed divided into several teams, and began to encircle and suppress their troops from three sides, as she judged, sure enough, the other roads could not be taken, and the only place to retreat was the north, because that side was the territory of the Mazdor Kingdom, and there were no Terran troops over there.
Ilwen didn't leave, she stayed behind with her 20,000 troops, and the other 15,000 soldiers led the people to continue to the north. After waiting for a while, the Terran troops also surrounded and suppressed, and the dense troops directly surrounded their camp. Seeing the other party's troops, the remaining elves were also very nervous, the previous war had made them have some fear of the Terran troops, and they were a little panicked when they saw the Terran army again.
However, the Terrans did not attack directly, the soldiers in the middle of the army were separated from the left and right, and Ye Junwen walked out directly, apparently wanting to talk.
