Brad slammed out of his tent, his head covered with beads of sweat, he had the same nightmare again, this nightmare had haunted him ever since the end of the battle of Jasper Lord, when the tribe landed on the continent of Lordaeron, and countless ghosts haunted him, questioning, howling, screaming, and crying, making him uneasy.
"Am I right or wrong to do this?" Brad felt extremely dazed, although he kept telling himself that the small amount of sacrifice was to allow more people to live, but why should those who sacrificed a small amount should sacrifice for others. Just as the King's Council gave up the Jasper Collar, they also felt that giving up the Jasper Collar would consume the Tribe's troops, and Brad could not accept the same reason.
The questioning of the undead in the dream left Brad speechless, and his behavior was very different from that of the king he hated. In a trance, even he didn't understand whether he was doing this for revenge, or to realize his ambitions, or to live well for most people.
Although he knew that he might not intercept the orcs at sea with all his might, and although he knew that the orcs would still wreak havoc in the human territory after racking his brains, and would turn the frontier of the elven kingdom into a sea of fire, he still couldn't suppress his guilt. He felt that the biggest difference between him and the three kings was that their strategy was discovered, and he was still standing at the height of righteousness. No one but himself knows the Tao. But the essence is all the same: cruelty and selfishness.
The rhythmic sound of gunfire and artillery fire, mixed with the savage roar of the ogre, clearly reached Brad's ears, bringing Brad back to reality, and dreams are dreams after all. Now that he has made a decision, he must go on unswervingly, even the road paved with white bones cannot stop him, as long as his relatives, friends and people are safe, and all the sins are borne by himself, he is no longer willing to face the bleak scene of the previous life.
The dim glow of the fire shone through the cracks in the tent, allowing Brad to barely see. Washed his face with cold cold water, and Brad didn't wipe it. Walked straight out of the tent.
Even at night, the war was in full swing, and the Alliance soldiers clearly discovered that something was wrong, and the tribe did not have the momentum to fight to the death. And the orcs have been in the rear without any intention of moving.
"Vice Marshal, why don't you take more breaks?" Ferding saw Brad coming over and said hello, Ferding has always been very polite, although the two have a good personal relationship. But in the case of war, he still adhered to his duty.
"I've rested enough. When is it now? Brad asked as he surveyed the battlefield, Azeroth didn't have a small pocket watch or watch, it was inconvenient to keep time, and Brad had already planned to launch a watch after the war. The art of Azeroth clocks already exists, usually in churches or special bell towers, with complex and enormous bell structures. Goblins have never thought of improving, and humans are not good at it. In the wild, you can only guess the approximate time, such as Brad, who slept until midnight and woke up. Basically, I don't know what time it is.
Fording looked at the moon in the sky and said, "It's nearly midnight." The musketeers are tired, and I have discussed with the two generals, Aurelia and Moor, that the paladins have gradually taken their place to defend, and there are too many ogres outside, and the paladins are likely to be drowned by the sea of people when they rush out. ”
Brad sighed in his heart, the physique of the epic powerhouse is really strong, and the few people in Ferding are still full of energy, and they already feel tired when they go by themselves, and they take turns to rest like soldiers. He is trapped in the hero rank and can't advance an inch, but he doesn't have a clear clue about several elemental energies until now, and he will advance to the epic as soon as the war ends.
"Let's not be busy attacking and consuming the number of ogres, it's unrealistic to annihilate the tribal army here now, as long as we hold on for a while, the victory will definitely belong to us, and the ammunition I brought this time is enough to consume." Brad handed a bottle of milk to Fordin, drank it himself, and walked towards a sentry.
Fording followed behind Brad and wondered: "Why don't the orcs of the tribe have been dispatched until now, and they don't mean to move, and even the tribe's air force has not made any changes except for sending scouts. Orgrim didn't come forward in the camp either, and with Orgrim's character, if he wanted to attack the Windranger Tower, he would definitely move like thunder, just like attacking the Jasper Collar. Although the ogre attacked fiercely, he lacked the will to win, and I suspect that he must have a conspiracy. ”
Brad is not surprised to question Fordin, a handsome talent like Fording is only a man who has experienced less war, and is overshadowed by the light of Lothar and Reborn himself, which makes people ignore their talents. No one knows more about Fordin's accomplishments than Brad, who was turned Lafayette by the adventurer, and who combined the Scarlet Crusaders and Silver Dawn to form the Silver Northern Expedition to Northrend, is the most important force against the Lich King's Scourge Legion, and Fording even used the Ember Bringer to crush Frost's Sorrow and slay the Lich King. Not only is the commander's ability outstanding, but his own strength is even more powerful. It can be said that at that time, it was the most powerful human among the human race other than Egwen, and it was the strong barrier of the human race.
But Brad can't tell Verding what he really wants now, but analyzes: "The orcs crossed the border of humans to reach the elven kingdom, in addition to meeting with the trolls, the most important thing is to use the resources of the trolls to build a legion summoning circle to summon a large number of ogres, according to my intelligence, the ogres of Draenor were originally just a head, and they turned the ogres into the double-headed ones in front of us through a transformation array called the Storm Altar, and through transformation, the ogres evolved like the jasper-led horses turned into holy light unicorns, and the giant eagles became thunderhawks. ”
The unicorn of the Jasper Collar is a mount that the Knights of the Silver Hand must be equipped with, and ordinary horses must be too powerful, he didn't expect the tribe to be able to strengthen monsters, in his eyes, ogres are not intelligent creatures at all, and naturally blame them on monsters.
Hearing Brad's analysis, Furding frowned and said: "If you just summon ogres, you can do it in human territory, the tribe has looted a lot of precious materials in the Storm Kingdom, and it is impossible to have no problem." ”
"Ahem." Naturally, Brad would not tell Ferdin, the wealth that the tribe spent looting Stormwind City had run to its secret treasury, and the tribe would need to find and mine the materials again. "The alliance between trolls and orcs must not be unconditional. The trolls' hatred of elves far exceeds that of humans, not to mention the fact that our place has implemented a strong wall and clear wilderness, the orcs are not well supplied, and the food in the Taloomir region is scarce enough to satisfy the appetite of the tribe, and the elves who have no defense but are incomparably rich have become the best targets for plunder. ”
As if knowing the next question of Ferdin, Brad continued: "As for the Tower of the Windrunner, this is the territory of the Aurelia family, I have already warned them to be on guard, as for the rest of the place, the guys of the Silver Moon Council don't believe in Aurelia, so the defense is basically empty, I'm afraid it has already suffered heavy losses, and our interception of the tribe's supplies is the best proof of this." ”
Furding stood next to Brad, looking down at the battlefield, and said worriedly: "In this way, as long as the tribe gets enough supplies and troops, it will inevitably turn to the territory of the humans, then the human race will not face a worse form, the forces of Taloomir are simply not enough to resist, and the Eastern Tirisfaria woodland will inevitably be ignited by the same fire as the border of the elves." ”
Brad knew that Ferding was worried about his territory, which was just north of the Eastern Tirisfard Glades, and was an important city for humanity, the Valley of the Hearth. But Brad knew that Orgrim would not fight a protracted war with humans after getting supplies, his heart was too big, and there were many factions within the tribe, not a monolith, and a protracted war was not suitable for the interests of the tribe, his purpose was the royal capital of Lordaeron, in Orgrim's view, as the leader of the alliance, as long as the king of Lordaeron fell, the alliance would be vulnerable, and the tribe would not need to pay too much to obtain a large amount of land, which was the main reason why Orgrim did not consume orcs. But these Brad could not say anything to Ferdin, so he had to comfort him.
"What you say is not unreasonable, we can only use the Horde's strength as much as possible now, and then let the Elven Kingdom rejoin the alliance like the Brute Hammer Clan, and send elite troops to help us. Today's elven kingdom is not comparable to Amani's trolls, as long as the elves send elite troops, our chances of victory will increase a lot. As for our interior, Marshal Lothar is not a vegetarian either, so he should not suffer. ”
Ferdin, who was silent for a while, suddenly said, "How about if we retreat now and intercept the army in the only passage between the elves and humans?" ”
Brad smiled bitterly: "The tribe let us in, not necessarily let us out." As expected, the passage is now in the hands of the tribe. Taking a step back, even if we intercept the tribe in the territory of the elven kingdom, we will inevitably form a mortal enmity with the elven kingdom, so that the high elves who have been fighting side by side with us will be able to deal with themselves. The other elven elites may join the tribe in annihilating us, and if we push the elves into the side of the tribe, we will lose more than we gain. ”
Fourding was about to speak when he noticed Aurelia flying from the dragon's back in this direction, Fourin quickly stopped talking, he told Brad that it was okay, and it would not be good if Aurelia heard it. Being hated by the elves and not caring about it, affecting the relationship between Brad and Aurelia, he doesn't want to see it.
Aurelia jumped up to the sentry post, followed by a sturdy and slender figure, who was the same as Aurelia with a longbow and shining amber eyes, she was none other than Aurelia's sister, now the Ranger General Sylvanas. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, she rode her dragon eagle to break through the Horde's air blockade and reach the Alliance's camp. (To be continued......)
