Aurelia bit her lip. "What about the line of defense along the strait?"
Duque shook his head. "Everyone knows that we can't hold it. In fact, ninety percent of the people in the Arathi Highlands have retreated to Torrentburg. Even if we give up the Arathi Highlands, the Alliance can still hold on for a long time. We don't have to worry about the Horde taking the opportunity to invade the Hillsbrad Hills. After all, there is the Thoradin Wall there. "
The Thoradin Wall was a huge fortification built by Thoradin The Great to resist the trolls. It was a combination of a huge fortress and a city wall. The stone used to build the fortress was the hardest granite, and it was solidified by the earth element. Heavy catapults could only leave a shallow dent on it at most.
There, one man could hold the pass against ten thousand enemies.
Duque smiled calmly. "Go back. As a good friend and the commander of the Alliance, I agree to let you take all the Rangers back. Your homeland needs you more than the Alliance needs you. "
At this moment, the Saint-level moral integrity that Medivh had inherited was shining.
Did the Alliance not need the High Elves' archers?
Wrong!
Torrentburg, which was about to be attacked by the Horde's Red Dragon Cavalry, desperately needed the help of the Elven Rangers.
Both Duque and Aurelia knew this.
Duque had informed Cuel Salas in advance that the Horde would threaten them and let them go. Of course, Aurelia had volunteered to bring the elites of the Windrunner Family to help. If they wanted to leave, the Alliance had no reason to stop them.
It was to avoid putting Aurelia in a difficult position that Duque let her Rangers go. It was conceivable that once the Rangers left, Duque would be reprimanded by King Solas of Torrentburg.
Aurelia's face burned. She was the one who volunteered to help. When the Horde needed her and her troops the most, she was the one who wanted to leave.
If Duque had been more heartless and concealed the tribe's movements from the intelligence report, or had not told her the deduction of the direction of the war, and only found out at the last moment that she had been pulled into the main force, Aurelia, who had been squeezed dry for a long time, might have been able to be heartless.
Now that Duque was so open and aboveboard, Aurelia felt that her guard was softening bit by bit.
"I … I … I …" Aurelia said the word 'I' three times in a row and didn't finish her sentence.
The more carefree Duque's smile was, the more uncomfortable Aurelia felt.
"You should go back first. Use your and the Windrunner family's influence to see if you can wake up those arrogant old mages from their sweet dreams. Then, I'll save as many as I can, right? "
Aurelia shuddered. She had never thought that Duque would actually include the corruption in Silvermoon City. The thought of arguing with the Pharaoh of the Silvermoon Council, who only knew how to hold them back, gave Aurelia a headache.
At this moment, Cirvanas patted his sister's shoulder. "Sister, you should bring the main force back. I'll stay with the combat team that His Majesty the Sun King promised to the Alliance. I'll work hard for your share as well. Or … you don't trust my archery skills? "
Looking at her smiling sister, Aurelia finally realized that this was the best choice.
As a Ranger General, her influence in the country was much greater than her second sister's. As long as she brought the main force of the Windrunner family back, things would still be promising.
Seeing the determination written on his sister's face, Cirvanas smiled. "Yes, I have to go back and tell the people who stayed behind." With that, he tapped the ground with the tip of his foot and disappeared.
Leaving behind an awkward Aurelia.
Perhaps it was because she had seen Duque's appearance that Aurelia did not want to admit Duque's growth. That was why every time she saw Duque, she wanted to bully Duque like a strong elder.
Unfortunately, even if she did not want to admit it, she had to admit it.
Duque was no longer the little Duque she was familiar with.
From his body to his intelligence to his way of dealing with people, it had only been less than a year, but Duque had completely grown up. He had become a great man who played an important role in various countries, and even the entire World of Azeroth.
Lightly pursing her lips, Aurelia seemed to have made up her mind.
The next second, Duque suddenly found a warm and plump female body behind him.
"Good brother, good brother, good brother …"
There was not the slightest pretense. Instead, when the orchid scent mixed with a touch of bashfulness blew into his ears, it made Duque's ears turn red.
When Duque reacted, Cuel Salas's heroine, Aurelia, had already disappeared in the wind.
Duque touched his ears and muttered to himself, "This time, there shouldn't be a tragedy, right?"
Duke was a little lost. He had already changed too much of the 'history'. In his previous life, Aurelia had lost her youngest brother, Riras, and her parents in the joint attack of the Orcs and Trolls …
This made her hate the orcs to the point of permanent solidification.
That was how the heroine of the Alliance Expeditionary Force, Aurelia, who crossed the Dark Portal and went on an expedition to the Draenor World.
Duque did not know how history would be changed this time. Since Aurelia was so good to him and had an inexplicable relationship with him, Duque could not bear to see Aurelia's family die a tragedy.
"Sigh, let's see what Orgrim will do."
Almost at the same time, Orgrim encountered a strange creature in the Hinterlands.
According to the scout's report, he thought that they had encountered Ogres. Although these creatures were smaller in size, they displayed grace and quiet movements that he had never seen before on such a large creature.
But when a ray of sunlight shone on one of the creatures that came forward, Orgrim discovered that the creature's skin was green, just like most of his subordinates and the color of the surrounding trees.
This also explained why they did not notice these creatures before. The color of their skin allowed them to hide in the leaves, especially if they moved between branches like these creatures.
He also saw that this creature was slightly taller than him, more capable than the Ogres, and looked more balanced. This creature did not have overly long arms, large hands, or a large head. He stared at the creature in front of him.
When he saw the glint in the creature's dark eyes, the creature suddenly thrust the spear in its hand at Orgrim. This showed that they were very intelligent.
"We are not your enemies!" Doomhammer roared. His roar tore apart the silence of the night. He knocked the spear away with one hand. Only then did he realize that the spearhead was made of stone and was abnormally sharp.
"I want to see your leader!"
