The Elven Expeditionary Legion marched for another day, and finally turned to the main road near night, and marched northwest for a long distance overnight.

With the Frost Road opened up by the death knights, the speed of the remnants of the orcs marching in the swamp was at least twice as fast as that of the elf expeditionary army.

The elves marched west along the road, and at night they saw traces of the remnants of the orcs turning from the road into the swamp and retreating northwest.

The effect of the frosty road opened by the death knight is not permanent. The icy power from the underworld makes the water surface of the road that the death knight and the death horse walk through form a thick layer of ice, which can make a large group of people in the swamp pass quickly.

But after a period of time, the ice cubes will melt and the original swampy landscape will be restored, which prevents the elves following from behind on the frosty road to pursue quickly.

But ice cubes can melt, but the dark energy from the underworld will not dissipate easily. These leftover dark energies pollute the places the Death Knights walk. Everything there will be polluted by the existence of these remaining dark energies, including the trees, flowers, water, and the land they walked on.

Those lands would turn horribly black.

This kind of black is not the fertile black that a healthy land should have, but a black with a gloomy atmosphere. All plants in these black dirty soils will quickly wither and die.

It wasn't until after a long period of time that those dark death energies completely dissipated that it was possible for these places to regain their vitality and grow new plants.

This time may be one year, two years or even longer, and at the same time, the remains of these dark death energies will also attract some disgusting undead creatures. The more dark death energy remains, the more undead creatures will be attracted. If the dark death energy is strong enough, it will even turn the underground bones that died or buried there into undead creatures.

Fortunately, there are not many death knights in this group of orcs, and most of the death soldiers they led were reduced to ashes in the fire of Menethil City, so there is not much dark energy left here, and it is not enough to restore the underground It is not easy to turn them into undead creatures, or even attract undead creatures, otherwise the elf expeditionary army is likely to face groups of dead soldiers or skeleton warriors.

As one of the races most dependent on magic energy in the world of Azeroth, the high elves do not hate this dark magic power from the underworld. But as living beings, they definitely don't like these death forces very much, so even though it was dark, the elves of the expeditionary legion decided to march forward for a period of time before camping and resting to avoid these uncomfortable of cold air.

Based on the information obtained from the Griffin Knight's investigation, the elves marched for a longer or shorter distance every day, and nothing unusual happened for several consecutive days.

It was only on the fifth day that Lor'themar received a message from an owl saying that the battle on the southwestern front of Alasi had begun.

The orcs forcibly crossed the Strait of Hormuz with a large number of ships. Because the front line was too long, the alliance could not defend tightly and always filled the gap with left and right clumsiness. The most terrifying thing is that the orcs' large number of death knights can sprint extremely quickly on the water.

Lor'themar pessimistically believes that the Allied forces in the Strait of Hormuz will not be able to hold the line of defense, because part of the troops from Lordaeron and Alterac have not yet arrived, and it may take as long as a month or as little as ten days. The line of defense must be breached, and then the entire Arathi Kingdom will become a huge battlefield.

Alleria affirmed Lor'thema's judgment and wrote back asking him to always pay attention to changes in the battle situation and decide the direction of retreat at an appropriate time. The troops must not be in a dangerous situation like the last war.

But the opening of the Hormuz battle line also made Alleria breathe a sigh of relief. At least now there is no need to worry so much about the main force of the orcs in the southwest rushing to help the remnant orcs who can't escape.

On the tenth day, the scouting griffin riders found that the orcs had stopped marching. They entered the quarries where the Elves had rounded up the raptors, and camped there, and seem to be building defensive positions or camps.

So the elves also stopped advancing.

Now the elves are faced with the choice of advancing in the direction of the orcs, or waiting for Daelin's army in place.

If they immediately stop in the direction of the orcs and launch an attack when the orcs are not firmly established and the fortifications are not complete, even if the orcs cannot be wiped out, the orcs will not be able to quickly establish an effective defensive position. But in this way, due to the lack of melee units in the elf legion, a forced attack is likely to cause a lot of casualties.

If Daelin's army came to meet up, although it could make up for the shortcomings of the army structure, it would also give the orcs more time to build effective fortifications, and it might also increase the difficulty of attacking in the future.

From the perspective of the elves' interests, of course it is better to wait to join up with the human army before attacking. Because there are a large number of human melee units defending or attacking in front, the elf army as a long-range attack is undoubtedly safer.

But from the perspective of the entire battle situation, it should be to launch an attack as soon as possible when the orcs are not stable enough to prevent the orcs from establishing effective fortifications. When the human army arrives, the odds of winning a joint attack will increase a lot.

Alleria was a little undecided, so she discussed it with Cirvanas for a long time.

"I think it's better to wait here for Admiral Daelin's army!" Sylvanas said with a smile.

"Why? Is it because this is Proudmoore? If this is the case, the responsibility for passive combat will definitely fall on our Elven Expeditionary Legion. If the alliance puts pressure on Quel'Thalas, UU Reading www.uukanshu. com we will be in trouble," Alleria said.

"I understand what you said, but we must not allow our subordinates to suffer too many casualties!" Cirvanas said.

"What you said makes sense," Alleria said.

"Why don't we let the Griffon Knights go over to harass, at least we can have more excuses then!" Cirvanas said, "At the same time, we are also marching in the direction of the orcs. It's just a marching speed... let's slow down... slow down Son."

"That's the only way to go. I'll send a message to Daelin immediately, asking him to speed up his march." Alleria said, "Otherwise, after these orcs have completed their defenses and our elves join up with Daelin's army, we won't be able to move forward." It's easy to annihilate this group of orcs hiding in the fortifications."

"What would he do if his brother-in-law was here?" Cirvanas suddenly tilted his head and muttered to himself.
