Chapter 187: The Calm Before the Storm
When Sarjan and Valilla first entered Firas, they encountered Sentinel Lena and Elven Dragon Long Wings, and there were some unpleasant clashes between the two sides.
As time passed, Saljan and Valera helped the Sentinels take down the difficult bone of Erezaras, eliminating one of the potential dangers faced by Firas and Kalimdor, and Lena's attitude towards them changed dramatically.
However, the little guy who holds a grudge against the Wings of the Long Forever is still a bad guy and a bad woman.
However, it did not launch an attack in the first place, it should be just lip service.
Firas and the Bleak Lands were next door, and after receiving the news from the front, the adjutant who temporarily replaced Santis immediately led the sentries from Eresaras and headed north into the Bleak Lands as fast as possible.
Without the chieftain and most of the elite centaurs, it was difficult to survive, and with the strong cooperation of the Minotaurs, the Horned Eagle Knights of the Sentinel Force basically cleared the bleak land, and only a few centaurs fled north into Stonetalon Mountain.
While waiting for Santis to arrive, Saléan was in time to calm down and recuperate.
The Minotaurs were nomadic and had long been accustomed to a life of migration.
In the few days that Saljan and the others had entered Maraton, they had already packed all their belongings and gathered enough Kodo beasts to make all preparations for the Great Migration.
A few days later, the Night Elf advance force led by Santis entered the Bleak Lands from the north, where they successfully rendezvoused with the Sentinels and the Minotaurs.
"You're both so efficient in your actions."
Standing in front of Salaan and Valera, Santis said with some emotion: "I thought that the battle in the Bleak Lands would not be known until the Night Elves intervened, but I didn't expect that I would come over to clean up the mess." ”
After a few days of recuperation, Sarayan's fracture has basically recovered.
However, to be on the safe side, Valilla forbade him to wield his weapon for vigorous sports, and Quelcella was temporarily confiscated.
The idle Salian could only chat with the barrage, and got some new information from these sand sculpture netizens in another world who didn't know whether it was useful or useless.
Since the battle of quicksand is already close at hand, the most talked about by the barrage is the information related to the Empire.
All the powerful enemies of the Qila Empire, Salian has obtained relevant basic information from the barrage.
Although this information cannot be foolishly applied in the real Azeroth, it can at least be used as a reference, so as not to be blinded when encountering the enemy.
After all...... As the saying goes, the unknown is the most frightening thing.
When Santis arrived, the Sentinels once again had a backbone.
Originally, the Sentinel Force was founded by Santis, and she was the undisputed supreme commander of this army, and all dispatches could only be effective through her approval.
After retaking command of the Sentinels, Santis immediately began to arrange tasks.
According to the agreement agreed in advance, some of the sentinels would escort the Minotaurs through the Stonetalon Mountains and the Barren Lands to their destination, the Mogaolei Grassland, and Lena Lin Xin was among the escorts.
As the Night Elves repeatedly refused the Minotaurs' requests for help, Magassa still had a lot of opinions about them.
The future of the Minotaur was at stake, and Kane and Hamuel told Magassa to keep his temper in check.
Watching the horde depart, Kane and Hamuel temporarily withdrew their thoughts and focused on their next move.
The Bleak Lands have been rendered lifeless by the scourge of Thedreth, and the Broadie Night Elves have no interest in the land.
Santis ordered the sentinels to leave a few outposts around the central axis of the Bleak Lands in order to ensure the smooth passage of the incoming and outgoing caravans, and that was all.
After taking Eresaras, the Night Elves intended to establish the ancient city as the center of southern Kalimdor.
But because the time was still too short, and with the centaurs of the Bleak Lands in the middle, the plan to connect the north and the south proceeded very slowly.
Now that the road is open, and the Night Elves are about to use troops against Silisus, it is only natural that Erezaras will take on the important task of being a rear base.
After the Night Elf advance force marched into Eresaras, Shantis did not rush south to Silishus, but first sent messengers to the Cenarion Fortress to ask for the latest information.
Before the war officially began, Santis needed to establish a rear base in Erresaras to ensure that he could provide strong support to the army fighting on the front lines at all times.
The Minotaurs are a nomadic race that lives on the steppes, and they are somewhat unaccustomed to the climate of the tropical jungle of Firas.
Although the climate of Firas is hot and humid, it is much better than the endless desert of Silisus.
Silisus was not only hot, but also severely dehydrated...... To be precise, there is a lack of resources. valley
Without the rear support provided by Firas, Sarjan doubted that the druids would have been able to remain stationed at the Cenarion Fortress for long.
Sheldis still had to stay in the rear to build a base camp, and Salian didn't want to stay in the rear.
After consulting Kane, Saljan and Valilla decided to set off first, with the Minotaur Great Druid Hamuel leading a group of elite Minotaurs south first, rushing to the Cenarion Fortress to meet the local Night Elf Druids.
At the same time, the expeditionary forces of the Eastern Kingdoms were also ready, and the troop carriers of Kurtilas were to transport the armies of the warring nations to the other side of the Endless Sea.
This process may take 1-2 months, and once the troops of the Eastern Kingdom arrive, the Second Battle of Quicksand will officially begin.
……
Coming to Silisus again, Salaan and Valera behaved more calmly.
The Minotaurs were amazed at the environment, they had never seen the desert before, and now they knew that there was something worse in Kalimdor than the Bleak Lands.
Regardless of whether it is blown or blacked, Silisus is definitely one of the harshest living environments in the entire Azeroth.
The sand of Silisus, which is also a desert, is significantly darker than that of Tanaris, giving people a sense of lack of vitality.
The last time they were in Silishus, Salian and Valera had come and gone in a hurry, without meeting the druids of the Cenarion Fortress.
Unlike the previous infiltration battle, this time it is to fight to the death with the Empire, and it is natural to have a good relationship with the permanent personnel of the forward base of Cenarion Fortress.
There is a classic old saying in another world, before the soldiers and horses move, the grain and grass go first.
Although there is still some time before the decisive battle with the Empire, the relevant personnel and material transfers have already begun.
This time, Sarian and the others also escorted a supply team over by the way, and the journey along the way was quite smooth, except for some jackals who blocked the way, they did not encounter any major trouble.
The leader of the supply team and the defenders of the fortress of Cenarion had long been acquaintances, and thanks to his introduction and the letter from Santis, the Sarlian and his party were able to enter the surveillance fortress that stood at the forefront of Silissus.
Although the Minotaurs and the Night Elves were ancient allies, their relationship has not been very good in recent years due to their differences in dealing with centaurs.
Hamuel, who was already a druid, took this opportunity to get in touch with the Night Elves of Cenarion Fortress.
Even if the Minotaurs are secretly dissatisfied with the Night Elves, at least for the time being, they will not turn against the Night Elves.
They all ate on the land of Kalimdor, and they didn't look up or down at each other.
With the comprehensive national strength of the Minotaur after being suppressed by the centaurs for many years, there is no comparison with the powerful Night Elves at all.
What else can I do, admit to pretending to be a grandson.
Although minotaurs are gentle by nature, they are not completely devoid of tempers.
During his time on the road, Hamuel often asked Salian and Valilla about the High Elven Kingdom.
Some of the smart people in the barrage quickly understood that the Minotaurs had become unhappy with the Night Elves for years of dying, and the Minotaur higher-ups led by Hamuel wanted to find another reliable ally.
Although Valera was eager to take this ally for Quel'Thalas, she really didn't dare to make a random commitment when she calmed down.
The Night Elves and the High Elves have only come together because of a common enemy, and the philosophical differences that have lasted for tens of thousands of years are not so easy to heal.
No one dares to guarantee at this stage how relations between the two countries will develop after the end of this war.
Quel'Thalas's land is far away on the other side of the Endless Sea, and even if he establishes a stronghold in Kalimdor in the future, it is impossible to fall out with the Night Elves, the overlord of this land.
Valera has no right to make an idea about such a major event concerning the diplomatic relations between the three countries.
She could only temporarily pacify Hamuel, openly and secretly persuading them to maintain a calm mind, and first concentrate on restoring the population and national strength of the Minotaur.
Hamuel was sleek, not a stubborn cow with a tendon like Magatha.
From Valeera's words, it was clear that the High Elves did not want to meddle in Kalimdor's affairs for the time being, and he didn't talk about it anymore, and after arriving at the Cenarion Fortress, he actively began to build relationships.
Speaking of which, due to the prior transfer of personnel, the commander of the Cenarion Fortress and the Sarren once had a relationship with Salian in the Emerald Dream Realm.
She is one of the Grand Druids of the Cenarion Council, Korda Steelclaw, who often appears as a giant bear.
