Chapter 85: A moment of silence before the war

Silvermoon City, in the city defense command hall, the ranger general Sylvanas Windrunner and her adjutant Lor'themar Theron, as well as more than ten senior commanders of the remaining ranger troops, and the Captain of the Guards of Silvermoon City , And the representatives of the Mage Corps stationed here are holding a pre-war preparation meeting.
"Let’s talk about it! What are we going to do now? The ranger scouts just came to report. Now that the undead army has bypassed Silvermoon City, it seems that they are preparing to cross the sea from the bay of the Western Temple to Sunshine Island! , They must be planning to directly cross the strait to attack the Sunwell Heights on the Isle of Quel'Danas from the Island of Sunshine! From this, the previous judgment of the council and the king is correct, and the target of the undead is indeed ours. Sunwell!"
　　 Sylvanas, who was sitting on the main seat, spoke first. After returning from the little Annie, she began to send people to gather the officers to start this combat meeting.
　　 In less than half a day, all the ranger scouts reported back were bad news! The Qingfeng Village was destroyed, the Western Temple was razed to the ground, and the undead passed by nothing. On the originally beautiful land of Quel'Thalas, there appeared a huge and dark scar that was cut diagonally across!
Now, the only good news she got is: the powerful demigod mage, little Annie has promised her that when defending the city, she can provide some necessary help to the elves, which allows the general ranger to successfully defend Silver Moon The confidence of the city has increased a bit!
After all, in Silvermoon City, there are a large number of mage towers and protective arrays connected in parallel, and there is also a huge amount of magic energy from the Sunwell for unlimited use. Under the full protection and protection of the city defense and ranger troops, one stays The mage and demigod in the city can definitely display terrifying power?
"I don't think there is much to worry about this matter! The undead don't have enough ships to cross the sea! The king and the council have already taken a large number of military transport ships from Yangfan Port when they went to the Sunwell Heights to be stationed. , Now they are all in the waters near the island of Quel'Danas!" A high-level mage of the mage group stood up and began to express his opinion.
"If it's the port on the Darth Vaiser Tower, I might still be a little worried. After all, there are many civilian ships there! But now the undead are in the Western Temple. I'm afraid all the ships they can find will be added. Isn’t it enough for ten ships? Use this ship to transport troops, when will they be transported? Maybe we can wait until this time next year to prepare for battle?" After speaking, the senior mage nodded. After saluting everyone, he sat back arrogantly in his place.
　　 Sylvanas didn't care about the attitude of these mages. These mages have always been like this, and she is not in the mood to accuse him of his arrogance anymore. The meeting is still important! Moreover, she didn't agree with the idea of ​​this idiot just now. The undead is definitely not as easy to deal with as he imagined. The number of them and the number of recruits anytime and anywhere are enough to push everything! She must be vigilant at all times, otherwise, the high elves will probably be overwhelmed!
　　 "Does anyone have any comments? Just say anything!"
　　 Sylvanas was not as optimistic as the arrogant mage. On the contrary, she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong! The human prince, the current death knight, couldn't have thought of this situation. Then, why did he go to the bay beyond the Western Temple? What does he want to do?
　　 "General, since the undead does not intend to attack Silvermoon City now, shall we send some troops to reinforce the Sunwell Heights?" At this time, the captain of a ranger unit stood up and expressed his own opinion.
"Absolutely not! In Silvermoon City, including the newly recruited militias, there are less than 3,000 people! In addition to the original Sunwell Guards, there are nearly half of the ranger troops on Quel'Danas, most of them The high-ranking mages, almost all members of the council, and most of the royal guards, even His Majesty the King is still there! Their guarding power is already more than ten times ours! We have people who will reinforce them. What's the use?"
　　 Without even thinking about it, Sylvanas rejected the ranger captain's proposal! What a joke, the guards of Silvermoon City are already weak now! What she wants to defend is Silvermoon City with a population of 200,000. She is still too small for this strength, so how can she divide her troops?
　　 Besides, now whether the real purpose of the undead is the Sunwell or not, all these are just their guesses! What if the undead arrives on the island of Zhuri Sun but attacks Silvermoon City instead? Can the narrow shoal be able to stop the undead?
If it weren’t for the fact that the undead had no way to cross the sea, Sylvanas almost wanted to send someone in advance to blow up the sea-crossing bridge outside the northwest gate of Silvermoon City. The undead used it to turn around and attack Silvermoon City!
　　 "I also don't agree to divide the troops to support! The magical defense of the Sunwell Heights is unbreakable! We only need to wait for the news of His Majesty's victory in Silvermoon City!"
　　 The high-level mage who just spoke stood up again and added. In his opinion, there is no need for reinforcements at all. The army and magical defenses on Quel'Danas are enough to completely destroy the undead! How many people can their undead transport at one time? Maybe the two dozen warships of the Navy can shoot them into the sea to feed fish! He even wondered curiously, don't know whether those murlocs who are never picky eaters eat skeletons and zombies?
"General, I think you'd better send someone to inform the residents and guards on Zhiri Sun Island. Although you don't know when the undead will start crossing the sea, it's best to let them take precautions in advance!" The high-ranking priest Li, who has been silent, Adeline stood up and expressed her opinion for the first time.
　　 "Alright! Lor'themar, leave this to you for a while! After that, you set out to stay at Zhui Sun Island. If you can't keep it, you will withdraw everyone to Silvermoon City!"
Sylvanas turned her head and assigned a task to Lor'themar, who was on the side. He is now the Ranger Lord, and is no longer her adjutant. Let him do this alone, whether to withdraw or defend. Presumably he should know it!
　　 Sylvanas had just assigned the task, and when Lor'themar had not had time to respond, only a dusty ranger scout, led by two guards, rushed directly into the meeting room.
"General! The big thing is not good! It's the magic sword! The death knight used that magic sword to cut a bridge of ice across the sea to Zhuri Island. The undead have already rushed to Zhuri Island through the ice. went!"
　　 The female ranger scout was covered with scars from the landslides of branches and thorns, and even the white and tender face had two wounds, but now, she can no longer take care of these.
　　 "Also! The captain asked me to tell you a piece of news: There is still an elf in the undead team! A living elf! A traitor has emerged among us!"
"what?!"
　　 Sylvanas was shocked to take it up! Sure enough, she knew it would be like this! She knew that the death knight led the undead army to the western temple must have a conspiracy! She knew there must be something wrong with the elf gate being easily broken!
　　 This is true now! Everything has been proven! traitor! And the Ice Bridge! He still has the ability to make a bridge across the strait directly above the sea? Is this the power that mortals should have?
　　 "How many residents are there on the island? How many guards are there?" Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Sylvanas hurriedly asked Lor'themar, who had not had time to leave.
　　 "This..., if I remember correctly, Fasselling College and the small village on the Tower of the Sun together have more than 10,000 residents, and if the guards, there may be less than 50 people..."
　　 At this point, Lor'themar's face began to turn pale. He knew that most of these people on Zhuri Island were dead! According to the untiring speed of the undead, and the time for the scout to return to report the letter, maybe, now the undead may have already invaded the island of Sunshine!
"Lor'themar! Now you will lead a thousand rangers to reinforce and garrison at the northwest gate of Silvermoon City, and then quickly send someone to install magic explosives on the cross-sea bridge. Once the undead has signs of attacking Silvermoon City, immediately blow it up. At the bridge! Now, go right away!"
　　The Ranger General stood up from her position, his face looked terrifying! She never expected that the undead would have such an incredible method! From this point of view, Quel'Thalas has lost tens of thousands of people on the Sun Island! This blood feud, sooner or later she has to figure it out with the undead! That Arthas!
　　 "Yes!" Lor'themar also knew the seriousness of the matter. He didn't dare to delay any more, and immediately got up and ran outside.
　　 "Wait! If, if possible, try to help those tribesmen who have escaped by chance, go!" As if losing her strength, Sylvanas closed her eyes and sat back on the main seat.
　　 "I'll help him too!" After seeing her lover Lor'themar ran out, Liadrin also stood up, waiting for the Ranger General to say anything, she trot out and followed.
"Filendre! You immediately dispatch half of the wizards to the northwest gate, and then prepare to hand over the authority of the wizard tower in the center of Silvermoon City. When the situation is urgent, let it be used by our elf guests!" After Lor'themar and Liadrin went out, Sylvanas began to make the final arrangements.
"General Sylvanas! I firmly oppose it! That is just a little girl, and she is also a little human girl of unknown origin! She is not our high elf! How can we let such an important city defense center mage tower to her? Use? Who knows what she will do?"
　　 High-ranking mage Ferendre suddenly stood up from his position, he was unwilling to accept this outrageous order! This ranger general actually wanted to cede the most important defensive center of Silvermoon City to a human of unknown origin? How can she give birth to this idea? This is equivalent to handing the fate of all the elves into the hands of a human being of unknown origin!
"If you Philendre is a demigod, or if your ability is enough to protect Silvermoon City, I will accept your objections! If you can't, then, do it now according to my orders! immediately!"
　　 Sylvanas stared coldly at the mage in front of her, and unconsciously pressed her dagger on her waist with her left hand. She had thought about this problem before, but now she has no choice but to trust unconditionally! It is now in a period of war, as long as the mage in front of her dared to say nothing, she would take him directly.
"Ha! Well, you are now the highest officer in Silvermoon City, and I will execute your orders unconditionally! However, I reserve the right to complain to the council and the king! I hope General Sylvanas, you will not Regret!" After speaking, Filendre walked out with a shake of his hand.
　　 After watching the arrogant high-level mage walk out of the meeting room door, Sylvanas couldn't help but laughed at herself, and then she waved her hand to let the others hurry down and make preparations.
　　 Regret? Ah!
　　 When the time comes, at best, it will only dismiss oneself, but so what? As long as Silvermoon City is guarded, all this is worth it! The current high elves have lost too many clansmen, Taquilin and Yongsong Forest are almost razed to the ground by the undead! She would regret it if she couldn't protect Silvermoon City, the last 200,000 compatriots in the city!

　　 off topic
　　PS: Since some people have asked, then I will explain why I don't directly summon the fire element army to push the undead natural disasters.
　　First: Kill Arthas and the dead, who will revive Kel'Thuzad? Who summon Archimonde without Kel'Thuzad? If Archimonde can't get out, Dark Night can continue to live on Mount Hyjal for a hundred thousand years! The people of Lordaeron can also regain their country after annihilating the undead without a leader! Then they can happily shout long live the Alliance of Lordaeron, the Alliance of Stormwind is getting thicker! After sending more people to destroy the Lich King Ner'zhul, Azeroth has lived a peaceful life for 100,000 years! There won't be so many messes behind! So what, who is Salvation? Who is Anduin? Who is Bovar? They said they didn't know each other!
　　Second: Can a demigod open the portal of the Grand Legion? Put a spell casually and throw it out, the millions of army will come? What a joke! Take a look at the Dark Portal, the Legion-level portal! Who is its builder? They are the two most powerful of the few demigods of mortal origin in the history of Warcraft! One of them is the last guardian with Sargeras consciousness-Medivh! The other is Gul'dan, an orc warlock personally taught by Kil'jaeden! The two demigods work together to build a legion-level portal that can pass through a large number of troops! And it needs a steady supply of energy! Only hundreds of thousands of orcs can rush out!
　　Third: Small portals also need continuous energy supply, and the number of troops that pass through at one time is not too much~EbookFREE.me~Think of those portals built by the Burning Legion! The Burning Legion is a professional demolition team in the universe. Everyone who comes to Azeroth needs to build a portal very rigorously to continuously send Legion soldiers. Isn’t there a mission to destroy the portal that exiles the Burning Legion?
　　 Now, as a demigod, you want to wave your hand to create a million army to flatten the undead? Sargeras didn't even dare to think so! Otherwise, the second time he sneaked to Azeroth, he would be killed by Medivh and his mother in Northrend? Only then did the soul fragment possess Medivh and work together to build the Dark Portal!
　　The Dark Titan of Sargeras is so awesome, people have to think of a solution if they want to send the army! Are you a demigod who wants to wave your hand to bring out the army of millions of fire elements? Go dreaming!
If it’s just a hundred or ten fire elements, it’s okay to wave your hand, and if you want to continuously send the army, you have to learn to burn the legion, honestly upgrade technology, scrape resources, chop wood, and dig for gold. Mine, clear wild monsters, and then build the violent building: the portal! Then start to build up troops, continue to open the base, continue to build up troops, and finally push the enemy's base in a wave! Haven't the people who came here ever played the Frozen Throne?
　　Finally: No one can easily make a portal to a million army! Besides, Azeroth has Titan's defense measures! Moreover, magic is a rigorous science, following the basic principle of equivalent exchange! Want to go through the portal? No problem, pay the ticket and tolls first! That's right, it should be like this!
