Chapter 289： My last order was to stand my ground

It turned out that the main force of the Allied forces had retreated towards the wetlands at nightfall.

However, their left-wing defense line has never received any order to retreat. This owl was just in case she put two owl rangers into the mage team following the main force of the Allied forces.

On the one hand, it can protect the mage and understand the intelligence of nearby enemies, and on the other hand, it can also allow Alleria to keep abreast of the general movement of the main force of the allied forces. But despite this, if it is not urgent, the ranger over there will not let the owl come over so late under normal circumstances.

The battle lasted until midnight, and the orcs were still unable to attack the camp of the Left Alliance. They were finally tired and retreated one after another.

The members of the Elven Expeditionary Legion and the Lordaeron Legion were exhausted, but many of them just fell to the ground to rest.

Alleria was still by Habayashi Bloodhawk's side and never left him for a moment. she is waiting! Even when Habayashi Blood Eagle woke up, he was also waiting for the Allied High Command to issue an order to retreat!

An hour later, Habayashi Blood Eagle still hadn't woken up, and there was no order from the Allied High Command. Alleria was filled with anger! It has been such a long time since the night fell, even if you crawl to bring the order, it should be here by now, why is there no order?

At this moment, Sylvana hurried over, and Alleria handed the note to Sylvanas.

Cirvanas just glanced at the contents of the note, his face didn't change much. She had already received the message secretly sent by Aurelia, so she didn't feel so surprised, but turned her head to look at Habayashi Blood Eagle.

"How long has he been?" Sylvanas asked.

"It didn't take long for the orcs to come in," Alleria said.

"We should immediately send the mages and the Blood Eagle Legion to the landing point in area 4," Cirvanas said.

"Will the mage go too?" Aurelia asked.

"Yes, they all ran out of mana today, only a few high-ranking mages and those old Catherines are no different, and it won't help much to keep them. I guess they won't be able to recover before tomorrow night, unless Drink the potion. But right now there are really not many potions, and I consumed too much today." Cirvanas said.

"Are there many casualties in the Blood Eagle Legion?" Alleria asked.

"They had no casualties. They were defending on the second-line arrow rests. Few orcs could attack them, but their battle pets were all killed while helping to plug the gap," Cirvanas said.

"If that's the case, I guess there won't be any Velociraptors left!" Alleria asked with a wry smile.

"Yes, the orcs are attacking very violently this time," Cirvanas said, "If my guess is correct, they will continue to attack tomorrow morning."

"More than 3,000 people, can the ship he arranged be loaded?" Aurelia asked.

"I believe in him!" Cirvanas said, "He will find a way!"

"Okay, you go and secretly arrange the mages and the Blood Eagle Legion back to the No. 4 landing point, and arrange some Griffin Knights to investigate whether there are orc troops in the area between us and the main force of the Chinese army. I am worried that the orcs will cut off our retreat. "

Alleria said: "Come over and replace me after the matter is settled. I will go to the head of the Lordaeron Legion and ask him if he has received the order to retreat."

Sylvanas spent an hour arranging things before returning to replace Aurelia.

"All gone?" Alleria asked.

Cirvanas nodded and said, "The old man and a few senior mages are still here."

"Why?" Alleria asked.

"They said they want to follow him!" Cirvanas pointed to the clay sculpture-like Habayashi Blood Eagle and said.

"Why did you follow him?" Aurelia wondered.

"I don't know either, they just said it's fun to follow him, and you don't have to leave first since you can defeat the orcs at the party." Cirvanas smiled wryly.

...Aurelia was speechless.

Alleria finds the Legion Master of the Legion of Lordaeron.

"Master Legion, I need your honest answer, have you received the order to retreat from the high command?" Alleria asked angrily.

"Why do you ask that?" The Lordaeron army leader was very surprised.

"You don't need to know why, I just need to know whether there is or not!" Alleria said coldly.

"No! The last order I received was the reply I got after I jointly asked for help with you, stand firm!" Lordaeron's legion commander said affirmatively.

"Are you sure you're telling the truth?" Alleria asked forcefully.

"Of course! I can swear on it." Said the leader of the Army of Lordaeron.

"Crack!" Aurelia slapped the note on the table and said, "Look! The main force of the Allied Forces has withdrawn at dusk!"

The commander of the Lordaeron Legion picked up the note, and he was stunned when he saw it. After a while, he slapped the table hard, and his face became ashen.

The main force retreated, but no one conveyed the retreat order to him. The main forces of a dozen legions were forced to retreat by the main force of seven or eight orcs, but they let these broken legions stand firm and block the attack of the two orcs. There is no doubt that they were abandoned.

"Withdraw! Order to withdraw immediately!" Alleria said.

"I have not received any orders to retreat," said Lordaeron's army chief. "The last order I received was to stand firm!"

"Hmph!" Alleria snorted coldly, turned around and left, before she walked out of the army tent, she suddenly turned her head and said, "Master Legion, you'd better think carefully, this is related to the lives of many people."

After finishing speaking, he left without looking back. She understood him, he was a pure soldier. If it was in Quel'Thalas now, if the Allied High Command were high elves, she would do the same.

But now she would not let the thousands of Quel'Thalas Expeditionary Legion die with him. She has decided that if there are orc troops active in the area between here and the main force of the Allied forces, she will immediately order the withdrawal of the troops. UU Reading It doesn't matter to her whether the leader of the Lordain Army gives the order to withdraw or not, but the Elven Expeditionary Army must all withdraw.

Looking at Aurelia's cold back, the Lordaeron Legion commander also sat on the chair, his mind went blank. Should the withdrawal be ordered? The lives of thousands of people depended on one of his decisions. He didn't know what he was thinking, but just sat quietly like this.

An hour later, his adjutant came in hastily.

"Legion Commander, the elves are packing up, as if they are ready to retreat at any time!" said his adjutant.

"I see!" said the Lordaeron army leader.

"...Legion Commander..." The adjutant hesitated to speak, the elves had left, and this place would not be able to defend no matter what. Without the long-range attack professions such as elf mage and ranger, the defeated orcs only need to launch an attack.

The leader of the Lordaeron Legion's eyes fell on the note on the table.

The adjutant hurriedly picked up the note, the words on the note were written in High Elvish, and the adjutant could recognize it. But after he saw the words on it, he was stunned: "The main force has retreated... No wonder... No wonder!"

"League commander, withdraw the troops! Quickly withdraw the troops! Otherwise it will be too late..." the adjutant suddenly shouted.

"The last order I received was to stand firm..." the Lordaeron army leader murmured.

"Maybe the courier was intercepted by orcs on the way, or maybe something happened and the order to retreat didn't arrive!" the adjutant said anxiously.

"No!" The Lordaeron army leader sighed, "It's impossible for every messenger to be intercepted. They also have dwarf griffin knights, but they didn't send us any order to retreat."

"Why? Why didn't they give us the order to retreat?" cried the adjutant.

"I don't know!" muttered the Lordanian commander.
