"Woo woo woo" The choking sound of his comrades was heard around him, and tears continued to flow down from the corners of Bridget's eyes, falling on the judgment suit and on the young soldier in his arms. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"He's gone after the Light."

The elf's indifferent voice came from behind her, and Bridget reached out a hand to wipe her tears, she didn't want the elf to see her weak side.

"You're the only priest here, and you're going to heal the other soldiers who can still be treated. Not to waste time here, every minute you delay is bringing a soldier's life to an end. ”

Bridget sniffed and let out a long breath.

She slowly placed the soldier's body on the linen, took out a linen hand towel from her magic bag, wiped the blood from the corner of the soldier's mouth, and the hand towel was stuffed into the soldier's hand.

Looking at the quietly sleeping soldier's face, Bridget's eyes moistened again.

Bridget straightened up her outfit and gave the soldier a solemn military salute.

"You're right, I shouldn't be like this." Bridget turned to look at Norris calmly, "I'm the only priesthood here, and my actions make the difference between life and death for the other wounded soldiers. ”

"Thank you." Bridget looked down at her red-stained fingers, "I'm supposed to do what I'm supposed to do." ”

Noris's indifferent expression softened, she thought that Bridget would fight back, but she didn't expect her to soften directly, which is rare between them.

"I'm here to help you, we High Elves have our own way of healing our injuries."

Norris strode after him.

Within the headquarters of the town of Brill, High Lord Mograini and Grand Prosecutor Ethanlyn sat at the top, and Locke sat next to them.

It's been 10 days since the last Forsaken raid, and Locke and the soldiers have rested here for 10 days.

Locke looked at Norris, the High Elf sitting in the back, with some distraction, not listening carefully to what the Great Lord was saying.

Of course, he wasn't firing at Nores, he was thinking about the next step for the crusaders.

This attack of the Forsaken had a great repercussion within the Silver Hand. Many radicals believe that this undead of free will should be dealt with first, which coincides with the previous thoughts of the High Lord.

However, this idea was not accepted by the great general Abydis, and Locke did not approve of the proposal.

Locke was so impressed with the dark queen that he didn't subconsciously want to clash with her. Even if it's going to fight, it's not now. At the very least, it will be necessary to wait for the war dividends in the Silver Pine Forest to be digested, and the forsaken will not be able to get out of the city anyway.

Locke had always had the idea of connecting the Silver Pine Forest with the town of Southsea in the Hillsbrad Hills first. With all the power that should be used, I am thinking about attacking the free undead of Lordaeron, as well as the Scourge undead of Stratholme and Andorhar.

When Locke laid out the layout before, he thought twice about leaving the Alterac Valley and leaving it to the direction of the Dark Queen's lower part. If she really pushes the Dark Queen into a hurry, she will definitely fight the Crusaders to the end, after all, her eyes are now on the Lich King, and as long as the Lich King is not dead, she will not take Lordaeron's humans for a while.

Similarly, the Lordaerons' greatest enemy right now is the Scourge Legion, and the purpose of both sides is the same on this point. It's just that only I know about it.

And it wouldn't be bad to leave the Ortaranks to her.

It is true that there are many resources in it, and this place was formerly the birthplace of the Kingdom of Alterac. Now in that land, the Syndicate, a group of thieves formed by the old nobles of the Kingdom of Alterac, has been wreaking havoc on it, relying on this organization to radiate the surrounding Dalaran and Hillsbrad hills, and from time to time to commit some heinous criminal deeds.

It would be best for them to bear the wrath of Sylvanas, and they were not completely obedient during the Lordaeron trusteeship anyway.

In that mountain range, there are ogres, trolls, thunderspear dwarves who come to explore the ruins and archaeology of the Titans, and the tribe of Thrall, the great chief of the tribe.

After Thrall succeeded in unifying the orc clans, the Frostwolf Clan, led by the orc shaman Drektar, has been living in the Alterac Valley.

With such a large mixed force in it, I believe that it will definitely slow down Sylvanas and bring time for the development of the Crusaders.

And most importantly, the current crusaders are not the nominal armies of the kingdom of Lordaeron. There is no better excuse for the local nobility who want to get in touch with the hills of Hillsbrad than the Oltranac Mountains to have the Undead of the Forsaken.

It is believed that when Sylvanas's army appeared in the Alterac Mountains, the local nobles of the Hillsbrad Hills would have known.

What they had done in the Silver Pine Forest, they must have known it for a long time. Now it may be to wait and see what happens to the Crusaders and the Council of Nobles.

Now there are crusaders to keep the undead at bay, and they have no pressure, and when the undead appear above the hills of Hillsbrad. They will definitely be in a hurry, and maybe when the time comes, they will take the initiative to contact themselves.

The above is my own thoughts, but it's a pity that I can't let them talk to the big lord.

Locke gradually came back to his senses, and the Grand Lord Mograini was still summarizing the results of the battle, summarizing and correcting the mistakes of the officers present.

Locke's eyes began to focus slowly.

He blinked a few times, and found that the elven girl he was staring at was also staring at him motionlessly, her face turning slightly red, but still cold.

The corners of Locke's mouth crooked and smiled at her.

The elf girl had a cold face and watched his performance. She looked at him with a foolish look and pouted to look away.

"This battle proves that these undead with self-will are more threatening than those of natural disasters. Therefore, when you stand guard and patrol, you must tell your soldiers to be vigilant. Any careless behavior is gambling with your own life! ”

"The three newly formed legions are moving to this side, and in the future they will be deployed on the main road outside the town of Brill, and our side will be in much better shape."

"Okay, that's it for this summary. Let's disband! ”

The officers present stood up and saluted and left the headquarters.

"Locke, do you have any problem attacking Lordaeron?" In the room, only the three of them were left, and the Grand Lord Mograini turned his head to look at Locke and asked.

"The time is not yet ripe." Locke mentalized and analyzed the reasons for the inviability. "We have just occupied the northern part of the Silver Pine Forest now, and we need time to digest the resources there. If the war potential is aroused there, we will not be worried about the problems here. ”

"Moreover, a decision was just made at the last meeting. Our primary goal now is to rid Tirisfarin of the Scourge and deal with them. We have a fairly stable rear area, so we can build up strength with peace of mind. When the strength is reached, we will use more than ten times the strength of the army to pile up Lordaeron and pile it down. ”

"Therefore, the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the great lord who is in a hurry." Locke said truthfully, "Although I also feel uncomfortable with the undead, our sake is for the people under our protection. ”

"We can't afford to lose."

The Grand Lord Mograini listened to Locke's words with a frown, in his subconscious, this undead spirit would definitely become their henchman in the future.

But now there is no support for him to attack the undead of Lordaeron first, and now even Locke is a little disapproven. However, Locke is also right, when everything is ready, the future war will be easier, after all, those undead in the city have limited resources.

Then the Great Lord thought of the engineering aircraft in this war. It can be said that without them, it is not known what the direction of the war here would become. But one thing is for sure, the casualties here must have been heavy.

In this battle, the crusaders lost more than 1,000 people, and most of the wounded soldiers were healed. Most of the soldiers who died were cavalry, not to mention this, cavalry was originally a dangerous type of troops.

But in this battle, the infantry, which should have had the highest casualty rate, lost less than two hundred people in total.

This surprised the Grand Lord Mograini, and it was only after the investigation that he learned that this was the fruit of the blossoming of Locke's vigorously developed air force.

Although the Great Lord has always had some doubts about the quality of these engineering aircraft, it has to be said that their role is really great.

"Those engineering planes—" The Grand Lord Mograini had just started when he was picked up by Grand Prosecutor Ethan Lien.

"That's right! Engineering Aircraft! Can this kind of thing spread across our crusades? In this way, our future battles will be much easier! ”

Ethan Lion was also a pragmatist, and he didn't care who made it, as long as it was helpful to the Crusaders, he would support it.

"I'm afraid it's difficult," Locke recalled, building the airport and the production line of the planes, all of which he had paid for 800 gold coins each, and most of that money was spent on goblin workers.

Because of money, every goblin worker involved in the production and construction of airplanes burst out with great enthusiasm. They voluntarily set up a quality control committee to supervise all the mechanical products produced by the goblins.

Therefore, in this air battle, all the aircraft produced did not have a single flight accident. This surprised the goblins.

However, Locke thinks that the money is well spent, and that the money can be minted again when it is gone, and that if the war is lost, there is nothing.

Looking at the expectant faces of the Great Lord and the Grand Prosecutor, Locke had to smile wryly and settle accounts for them.

"The cost price of a helicopter is 500 gold coins, a fighter is 650 gold coins, and a bomber is up to 1,350 gold coins. And that's not counting the crude oil used by our planes, which cost 5 gold coins per barrel. Not counting the airport, as well as ground crew, pilots, and other related supporting facilities. ”

Locke said depressedly, "Even the armor-piercing bullets fired by the plane cost 10 silver coins per shot. ”

"Except for the silver pine forest, which can barely be raised, our other regions can't afford to raise these precious things..."
