"The south is no longer possible." Sylvanas looked at the map and thought about Orcs's possible attack direction. "In this case, it is very likely to land on land. Then... where will it appear from? Sunsail Anchorage or Sunstrider Isle?"
"Or log in directly to Quel'Danas?" Aaron put forward his guess, but received Sylvanas's expression as if he was looking at an idiot. This made Aaron a little confused. He felt that it might not be impossible for Undead to directly attack Quel'Danas., Arthas needed to weaken High Elf's power by the way, so he chose to penetrate Quel'Thalas all the way, but if you just plan to summon Burning Legion, then you don't have to pay attention to Silvermoon City at all. As for High Elf's navy, don't mention it.
Seeing Aaron showing such an expression, Sylvanas sneered, giving Aaron the feeling that he had made some unforgivable mistake. Seeing Aaron's confused expression, Sylvanas decided to explain to Aaron, "You have to know There are two of the most elite Legion stationed on the road Isle of Quel'Danas. If the enemy chooses to attack directly, if they have a great advantage, there will be no problem, but if they miss a hit, they will be trapped in the dilemma of being attacked from both front and rear. So if I were the enemy's commander, I would definitely choose a suitable place to establish a stronghold first."
"But the commander of Undead may not think so." Aaron admitted that what Sylvanas said was reasonable. Although it is easy for Undead to replenish their troops, they also need a relatively stable position for the Undead wizards to cast spells. Directly attacking Quel'Danas is really not a good choice.
It's just that Scourge has a large number of Necropolis and various military units with different abilities. With two Legion's medical records of more than a thousand people, Flameblade and Dawnblade, can it really be defended? What if the Undeads plan to launch a surprise attack?
Regardless of what Aaron had in mind, Sylvanas still sent out investigation Dragonhawk Rider and High Elf to tame according to his own ideas. Zul'Aman Flying Eagle's plan to establish a new air force has been mostly completed, but those Flying Eagle knights are currently not in Silvermoon City. Sylvanas has no right to mobilize those soldiers until the parliament formally authorizes it.
Now Sylvanas, in addition to sending out scouts to look for the enemy's movements, can only follow Silvermoon City Council's decision to order those Legion scattered throughout Quel'Thalas to gradually gather near Silvermoon City. As for arranging operations, it is probably impossible before the enemy appears.
What was unexpected was that just half a day after Sylvanas sent Dragonhawk Rider out, someone came back with news of the enemy's appearance.
What is even more unexpected is that the enemy appeared on the sea east of Quel'Danas, and the enemy is not Undead, but...
"You said a group of Orcs are heading towards Quel'Danas?" Aaron frowned and looked at the Dragonhawk Rider who reported the message, Orcs was not in When Dalaran appeared under the city, Aaron was not too surprised. If these guys who robbed the ship from Southshore and went to sea planned to attack Dalaran, there was no need to turn to Southshore.
But now Orcs actually appeared near Quel'Danas. It seems that Undead did not intend to invest all its troops in Dalaran from the beginning, instead of adjusting its strategy after finding that Dalaran was difficult to fight.
But in this way, Scourge will inevitably invest all its troops here, and the difficulty of defending Quel'Danas will be greatly increased.
However, according to the news sent back by the scouts, there is only Orcs in Orcs's fleet, and there is no Undead. Looking at it this way, it seems that Orcs has been abandoned repeatedly.
Sylvanas made a prompt decision and reported the matter to Silvermoon City Council, and immediately rushed to Quel'Danas with her people, preparing to give Orcs a head-on blow to those who did not play their cards according to her ideas.
Judging from the investigation, the total number of people in Orcs is not very large, only two to three thousand, but they are all combatable soldiers. It seems that they have left all the old, weak, women and children in Horde behind and did not take them to the battlefield.
By the time Orcs appeared in the waters near Quel'Danas, including the reinforcements brought by Sylvanas, the island had already gathered three Legion with a total force of more than 1,500. In addition, Arcane Construct relied on Sunwell to provide power, and Orcs's first round of attack failed to gain any advantage at all. Instead, it was firmly blocked near the coastline by High Elf.
But when the battle situation reached a stalemate, Orcs's reinforcements quickly appeared. This time Undead finally appeared. What's even stranger is that there were some demons mixed in the Undead group. These demons His strength is much stronger than that of Undead, and his intelligence is not comparable to that of ordinary Undead soldiers. As a result, High Elf's defense line once retreated to the vicinity of Sunwell Plateau.
Fortunately, Archmage of Silvermoon City provided timely assistance. The Big Van encirclement spell they cast was not inferior to the Dalaran mage, and they finally pushed the enemy into the sea.
After the defeat in the first battle, the Orcs Undead coalition forces hurriedly returned by boat, but the direction of their evacuation was to the southeast, which made Aaron a little confused. Is there Orcs's camp over there?
"There is something wrong with this. Regardless of Orcs's navigation ability, the direction they are traveling in is also wrong, not to mention the speed of the reinforcements." The problem discovered by Aaron Sylvanas also noticed it and inferred a conclusion. "I think they may have established a stronghold nearby."
"Around here?" Aaron scratched his head. He was not familiar with the geographical environment near Silvermoon City and Quel'Danas, but he also knew that the area nearby could be regarded as High Elf's absolute circle of power, which would not allow others to invade at will.
Is it possible for Orcs to establish a temporary stronghold near here that can be used to manufacture Undead? It is possible, but it is unlikely that this stronghold is not known to Silvermoon City. If the troubles in the nearby area are not known, then Silvermoon City would have fallen long ago.
"It's not completely impossible," Sylvanas shook his head and looked to the southeast. "Azurebreeze Coast, damn, Master Dathwither has already been beaten once by Troll, doesn't he still have a long memory?"
"Azurebreeze Coast?" Aaron remembered that when Troll launched a counterattack against High Elf, it had landed at Azurebreeze Coast. It seems that Sylvanas thought that Orcs's temporary base was also in that place.
"Forget it, let's send someone to take a look first." Sylvanas thought for a while and recruited a few Dragonhawk Rider and asked them to go and investigate. If it is confirmed that Orcs is indeed at Azurebreeze Coast, I am afraid that the enemy's stronghold needs to be cleared first, otherwise it will always be a trouble.
