Chapter 13: The Troll's Layout

It's been another few days, and the trolls seem to be very patient, and the military intelligence letters are the same for the past few days, and the armies of both sides are still facing each other, and there are no other anomalies.

It's time for the regular military meeting again, and everyone has come to the hall of the mage tower, and it is still the generals of the various units who report on the situation of the day, every day.

"It's business as usual today, nothing else unexpected." The sentry captain said. "There is an incident, according to a ranger, who was standing on a sentry post and observing the enemy with his Eagle Eye technique, and noticed a few wisps of cooking smoke deep in the northern part of the Forest of Life."

"Smoke? The only person who produces cooking smoke in the forest can be a troll, what are the trolls doing on the back of the Forest of Life? Patrick thought to himself.

"Wait, Northern of the Forest of Life?" Patrick spoke silently, and Aurelia, who was listening to the work report of his subordinates, turned around and asked, "Advisor Patrick, did you find anything?" ”

"Are you sure you saw the smoke in the northern part of the Forest of Life?" Patrick didn't answer Aurelia's question directly, but instead asked the sentry captain.

"I can be sure that it is the northern part of the Forest of Life. When the ranger reported to me, I also saw a few wisps of smoke there. The sentry captain replied.

Receiving an affirmative reply from the sentry captain, a terrible speculation formed in Patrick's mind.

The trolls initially attacked the Far Wanderer's dwelling as a tentative attack, but when the elves repelled the trolls, the trolls took over the beneath the Elendal Falls and bewitched the elves by acting as if they would not give up.

Historically, trolls have been able to withdraw after a period of confrontation, so the elves will only stay on the outskirts of the Far Wanderer's camp.

Unlike the upper reaches of the falls, the river below is gentle and has a smaller span, and it is entirely possible to use rafts to transport troops across the river, or even down the river to join forces with the trolls of Torvasa and attack the dwellings of the Far Travelers.

The dwelling of the traveler was built near the bank of the river, so it was impossible to hold on to it if it was attacked by two armies.

After listening to Patrick's conjecture, one of the lieutenants said; "What's in it for the trolls? Do they still want to raid Silvermoon City after gaining a foothold in the Far Wanderer camp? ”

Patrick looked at him as if he was an idiot, and then continued to attack their intelligence: "There is no need for them to raid Silvermoon City, after they have established themselves in the residence of the Far Wanderer, they will directly attack us in the same way, and at the same time send a small number of troll troops in the Ghost Land to contain Taquelin and the Sun Temple, so that our army will not dare to act rashly."

Once the Eastern Temple falls, the trolls can send their troops into the Sunny Breeze Forest, the trolls are already good at jungle warfare, and they are even more comfortable in the forest, and even if we can defeat the trolls, those who have entered the Sunny Wind Forest will fight us as guerrillas. ”

Looking at the darkening faces in front of him, Patrick continued to make his own inference: "With the power of the trolls, it is entirely possible that they will be there to deal with us for a few months, if not longer. Moreover, the food and materials planted around the farms of Qingfeng Village and Su Lun will be looted by the trolls, so that the pressure on the trolls' food can be alleviated.

In this way, the entire Sunny Wind Village will be full of rumors, the military deployment of the kingdom will be cut off, and the troops stationed on the front line such as Taquilin and the Sun Temple will not be able to advance or retreat, they will be like a stinger stuck in our throats. ”

Patrick said as he looked at Aurelia, whose brow furrowed, as if thinking about something.

Another general said, "This is just your guess, based on my years of experience fighting trolls, trolls simply don't have such a sophisticated battle plan. ”

"Hawksbill is enough." Aurelia snapped. "The Cabolon Arcanist has a point, and judging by the trolls' performance right now, it's not impossible."

Is this Hawksbill? The elf who had been in the Quellins hut was stubborn about forcibly stopping the arcane as a way to get rid of the problem of addiction.

"Master Patrick, how sure are you of your analysis?" Aurelia asked.

"I can't give you a definite answer to that, General Hawksbill is right, it's just my guess."

Aurelia looked into Patrick's eyes and nodded thoughtfully, indeed, this was originally a guess, and it was normal for Patrick not to give an affirmative answer.

The top priority now is to find out the true intentions of the trolls, and once the facts are as Patrick said, then the Eastern Temple, where he is now, will be the first and most important defense of the trolls in the Battle of the Eternal Song Forest, and the consequences of losing it are unimaginable.

"Hawksbill, send a letter for help to the Eastern Temple Tower, and have them send it back to Silvermoon City for support. At the same time, send someone to contact Darth Vesser and Suren, and ask them to lead people to fully support the Far Wanderer camp. The abode of the far-traveler cannot be lost. ”

Aurelia is not a Marshal of the Far Traveler, military deployment is at her fingertips, calm and alert, well-deployed, sees through the overall situation, but her personality is dignified and elegant, which translates to this: she is the best candidate for a good wife and mother.

[She is 1000 years older than you] A disobedient voice sounded.

, you splashed this basin of cold water, it's really time, I'm going to have a big deal.

"What were you just thinking? Your eyes tell me that you just seem to have thought of something else. ”

Patrick looked Aurelia in the eye and said, "I wonder if I crack the troll layout?" Now, can we only save the situation by taking the initiative? ”

"Really? It's not the same as the look in your eyes, maybe you're only talking about part of it. Aurelia looked directly at Patrick, at the eyes that spilled with arcane energy from time to time.

Ignoring the episode, Patrick spoke his mind, and the other generals in the hall discussed the battle plan.

Commanding troops is not his forte, and battle arrangement is not what he is good at, Patrick did not put forward his own opinions, but silently listened to everyone's deployment of this war.

If the trolls were really making military preparations in the northern part of the Forest of Life, then this time the entire Eastern Temple garrison might have to take the initiative to attack and penetrate deep into the Forest of Life, and if left unchecked, it would pose an even greater threat to the Forest of Eternal Song.

But fighting deep into the jungle is like sending people to death, and now the High Elves don't know anything about the deployment of trolls in the Forest of Life, and the personnel arrangement. What is the difference between rushing into the forest of life and fighting forest trolls who are good at jungle warfare and sending them to death.

Aurelia has a big headache, and when the time is ripe for the trolls, I'm afraid she will have no choice but to fight.
