After discovering that crossing the sea wasn't a good choice, the Orcs who learned that they could fill the straits and cross the sea regarded this as their highest priority.
On the entire two-hundred-kilometer stretch of the straits that separated the northern and southern continents and was now known as the Sador Straits, there were Orc laborers pushing boulders to fill the sea.
"108,109,110 …" When Lilas killed the orcs from the other side of the river and counted down to 110, she frowned.
The Dragon Cavalry came again.
More Red Dragons, more Dragonmaw Tribe Orcs.
The Alliance couldn't do anything to them.
After all, the Alliance lacked a powerful air force that could fight against the Red Dragon Cavalry. There weren't many Gryphons left, and they were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of quality. Recklessly resisting was equivalent to courting death.
In Duque's impression, the only ones who could deal with the Orc Cavalry without hurting the Red Dragons were the Night Elves' Hippogryphon Cavalry from another continent.
"What a pity …"
The Night Elves' indifferent attitude meant that they wouldn't participate in this war.
Duque had to let Aurelia, Cirvanas, and Lilas each lead three hundred Rangers to deal with the Dragonmaw Tribe's agile attacks.
However, the entire bay was being filled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Duque felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
If he had let the Horde's transport ships go, there wouldn't have been so much trouble. Maybe the Horde would still foolishly collect ships to continue crossing the sea.
Duque's flamethrower couldn't do much here. Because he had the genuine Dragon Breath.
How passive a war without air supremacy was. Duque, Aurelia, and the Alliance bosses on Stormgard's side all felt it deeply.
"Duque, my intuition tells me that you've already predicted something. What are you waiting for? "Aurelia took advantage of the fact that there was no one around to catch Duque.
Duque had evaded the first attack with a Flash, and then activated Ice Barrier to break the Great Demon King's trap, but he was still caught by the other Demon King.
Cirvanas took advantage of the moment when Duque's Ice Barrier's Absolute Defense ended to descend from the tree like a ghost, his hand reaching over to grab Duque's ear.
"Don't! I surrender! "
Outside the grove, Gavin Rad, who was technically a bodyguard, blew a whistle to indicate that he couldn't see or hear anything.
In the forest.
"Resistance is severe!"
"Tell the truth and you'll be lenient!"
The Windrunner sisters used the words they learned from Duque and used them on Duque.
Duque was speechless.
Duque was unyielding. "Humph! Someone still owes me a lot of 'good brother'. If I don't clear my debt first, there's no deal. "
But the bastard's pretentiousness only lasted for a while. After all, this involved the Windrunner family, so Duque didn't keep them in suspense for too long.
"It's been eight days since the second sea crossing battle, and we haven't found Orgrim's flag. This doesn't fit Orgrim's character. I'm seventy percent sure that Orgrim has personally led his army across the sea. "
"Then … where is he?"
"If I'm not wrong, he should be here with no more than fifty thousand Horde elites …" Duque opened the map he carried with him and pointed at the Hinterlands.
The Windrunner sisters didn't look too good.
"This is both a good and a bad thing." Duque paused for a moment. "The good thing is that the Horde will definitely anger another dwarf branch that lives in Eagle Nest Mountain — the Wildhammer Dwarves. The Wildhammer Dwarves are good friends with the griffins that breed in Eagle Nest Mountain. Their Gryphon Knights were also quite famous. Now we don't have to worry about not having an air force. "
Aurelia's expression became even worse. "The bad thing is that the Horde has gone behind the main force of the Alliance."
The Silverpine Forest was to the west, the Hinterlands to the east, and the Arathi Highlands to the south. The Alliance was surrounded on three sides.
"No, I'm not worried about that. The Wildhammer Dwarves are very strong. As long as we have enough reinforcements, the Horde will definitely be able to withstand the attack. The problem is, after that, if the elites of the Horde can't go west … "
The two sisters' gazes followed Duque's finger to the north. That was the hinterland of Lordaeron. If they passed through Serradan in the Hinterlands, they would be able to reach the holy city of Stratholme.
"Is the Horde going to attack Stratholme?" Queen Sylvie asked.
"No. They can't take Stratholme. Right now, the Holy Light Archbishop Faol is mass-producing Holy Seiya in Stratholme. There's half of the Silver Hand Knights there, and Stratholme's defense is comparable to Lordaeron's. As long as the Horde can't take them down, they will be surrounded and killed. They will be surrounded and killed by the endless stream of humans coming to defend the holy city. "
"Then …"
"I'm worried about your hometown, Cuel Salas."
At this time, the two sisters looked at Duque as if he was an idiot.
Aurelia put her hands on her hips like a proud rooster. "The entire forest of Cuel Salas has a magic shield. Those stupid trolls won't be able to break in even if they spend another ten thousand years."
Queen Sylvie also put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest, as if she was right.
"Have you forgotten that the Horde actually has Warlocks? There's a rough description of the magic shield of your forest in the books of Karazhan. If you use runestones, as long as enough power is used to corrode a few of the runestones in the key parts of your forest, the magic shield that protects the entire forest will be a joke. "
When Duque said this, the faces of the two Windrunner sisters had completely lost all color. They were deathly pale.
As the Ranger Generals of Cuel Salas, of course, they knew the secrets of the magic shield of the forest. The daily maintenance of the runestones was also carried out under their eyes.
If they did not know Duque very well, Aurelia and her sister would definitely think that Duque was a spy sent by the trolls.
And Duque's last words extinguished the last bit of hope in the hearts of the two Windrunner sisters.
"According to my calculations, the worst case scenario is that the trolls choose to join the Horde. Then Cuel Salas will face a disaster."
From the bottom of their hearts, the Windrunner sisters did not want to believe Duque's deduction.
But along the way, when had Duque's deduction of the big picture ever been wrong?
Their slim bodies were trembling.
Duque stepped forward and put one hand on each of their shoulders. "You've done enough for the Alliance. While the situation has not collapsed, quickly go back and warn Cuel Salas. Also, remember to evacuate your parents and third sister to Silvermoon City. That's the only safer place. "
