Chapter 67 The Oath of Redemption
When the Silver Northern Expedition Army was founded, it set a purpose, that is, they were willing to shelter any race and civilians who resisted the Scourge Corps. However, there was a small loophole, that is, the purpose did not include other forces that already had leadership mechanisms.
There were not many elves who fled from Quelthalas, probably only a few hundred. If it were only these people, Baron Terosos would have taken them in without hesitation. But when the Baron heard that behind these elves there were thousands of elves refugees, the One-Eyed Dragon finally began to consider whether to accept these elves refugees.
The Silver Northern Expedition Army has its own difficulties. The first point is material. At present, all the human kingdoms in the northern continent of Lordaeron have been destroyed, and all the remaining forces are similar to semi-military forces. For example, the Silver Northern Expedition Army, the Blood Crusader, and the Rapids Fort. These forces have weak production capacity and can only half-agricultural and half-army, which cannot support a large refugee wave.
The second point is leadership. The Silver Northern Expedition Army is an army that resists the Scourge Corps and requires absolute obedience. The number of elf civilians is small and they can digest it, but once the number of elf civilians taken in the Chapel exceeds a certain number, a leader will inevitably be produced within the elves. Then, how should the Silver Northern Expedition Army handle itself?
The third point is the contradiction between humans and high elves in the Kingdom of Lordaeron. After the Second Orc War, the high elves arrogantly withdrew from the Lordaeron Alliance. Whether it was the Stantome incident or Arthas led the Scourge to attack the Kingdom of Lordaeron, Quelthalas chose to stand by and watch.
But now the high elves who lost their country have come to the Holy Light Wish Chapel. You should know that the vast majority of people who maintain the Chapel are human civilians in the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and there will inevitably be many conflicts between the two in normal times. This is also a difficult issue that Baron Terosos must focus on.
Originally, Baron Tyrosus was not willing to look for Xu Mo on the issue of elf civilians. The cunning and scheming shown by the stalker in "repairing equipment" made the Baron instinctively avoid involving him in such political affairs.
However, after consulting with the three elves elders selected by the elf refugee, he found that he could not bypass the old K mercenary corps leader. These three elves elders are not only the leaders of the hundreds of elves civilians in front of him, but also the representatives of tens of thousands of high elves on the border of Quelthalas.
There was only one difference between the Baron Terosos and the Elves. The Baron asked the Elves not to gather all at the Holy Light Wish Chapel, but to scatter to the Fireplace Valley, Eagle Nest Fort, Tyr's Hand, Rapids Fort, and even Dalaran. In this way, all the problems of the Silver Northern Expedition Army will be solved.
However, if the elf civilians really disperse as Baron Terosos said, and request protection among the remaining racial forces in the northern continent of Lordaeron, then how many people can these elf civilians be left on the long journey, at least the high elves as a whole race will die quietly.
Although the elf civilians urgently need help, these three elf elders will never agree to beg for help from other forces at the cost of genocide.
In great loss and humiliation, they remembered the old leader of the mercenary corps that was circulated among the elves. The leader of the Cole is currently in the Holy Light Wish Chapel, and they also heard that the leader of the mercenary corps had just helped the Silver Northern Expedition Army to win a military victory not long ago.
So the elf elder immediately asked the Baron to see the leader of Cole. When Xu Mo entered Baron Terosos's headquarters and conference room, he happened to see the scene like the vegetable market.
"Okay, Commander Cole is here, you can ask him for help!" The Baron was a little angry by the three elf elders. After seeing Xu Mo, he immediately became gloating and angry, "I'll come over when you finish discussing with Commander Cole!"
Baron Terosos left his office angrily. In his opinion, no matter how capable Xu Mo was, he could not solve the problem of elf refugees. In the end, he still had to wipe the butts of these elfs. However, he hoped to tell these elf civilians through Xu Mo's mouth about the actual difficulties of the silver Northern Expedition Army, so as to provide substantial help for the subsequent real solution to the elf refugee wave.
However, the one-eyed Baron never expected that this happened to hit Xu Mo's thoughts. Since the leader of the old K mercenary group had tried his best to stir up all the forces in the northern continent of Lordaeron, just to rescue thousands of elves and civilians, how could he not arrange a backup plan?
If Xu Mo's plan for his plan was only on paper during the Secret Discussion on the Saldo Bridge, then after so many days of intelligence collection, he had completely improved the next planning steps and used the only few personnel from the old K-Team to make subsequent arrangements.
"Dear Commander Cole!" The three elves elders came up to salute solemnly. For these down-and-out elves, the mercenary commander in front of them was an elf benefactor.
Xu Mo smiled and accepted the elf elder's thanks. During the conversation with the elf, he quickly learned about the differences between the elf elder and the baron. He couldn't help but exclaimed that he was lucky. In fact, in Xu Mo's plan, the Silver Northern Expedition Army was a barrier that he could not avoid, and he never thought that he could get all the elf civilians.
But what he did not expect was that Baron Tyrosus would actually make a suggestion to exterminate the high elves, pushing all the elves into Xu Mo's arms. Obviously, the leader who was left in the Holy Wish Chapel of the Light, except for his outstanding military talents, could be described as a political idiot in other aspects.
Since Baron Tyrosus failed to think through the reason for the elf elder's anger, Xu Mo naturally would not resolve the misunderstanding between the two. The leader of the old K mercenary group immediately revealed the plans and arrangements he had made over the past few days to the three elf elders...
After listening to Xu Mo's plan, the three elves elders immediately looked at each other and fell into deep thought. The mercenary commander did point out a way for them to live, but this road was a thorny road. If the elf civilians withdrawn from Quelthalas really embarked on this road, then it can be foreseeable that the high elves will need to sacrifice countless lives in the future.
Xu Mo watched the elves' elders coldly, and the hesitation and embarrassment on the elves' faces were visible at a glance. Unlike Tyrosus, although these elves' elders are not nobles of Silver Moon City, the long-standing lives of the elves also give them rich experience and wisdom in dealing with the world.
"You must think clearly that the Silver Northern Expedition Army is an army. They are willing to help the elves refugees, but they will never allow the Holy Spirit Vow Chapel to become the second kingdom of the elves. My suggestion will cause countless high elves to lose their lives in the future, the high elves are still the same race and have the hope of restoring the country!"
Xu Mo said cold words lightly, "What's more, Quel's arrogant resolution to withdraw from the alliance is still uncompromised by major alliance forces in the mainland. You have lost your country. If you still refuse to abandon the boring arrogance and selfishness of the high elves and refuse to make sacrifices, do you still want to count on other races of Lordaeron to help you restore your country?"
The three elves' elders were shocked at the same time, and quickly realized that the current high elves no longer had the same high status as before. They were just a group of refugees and slaves who had lost their country. Thinking of Baron Terosos's suggestion that Baron Terosos had just said that almost equivalent to extermination of the high elves, they finally made a decision.
"As long as the elf civilians can be saved, as long as the hope of restoration can be retained, Yaronis Sun Chaser (Hrien Yinguang, Salina Mingyi) swears here that all elf refugees will obey your instructions!" The three elf elders finally lowered their proud heads and knelt in front of Xu Mo on one knee.
Xu Mo raised his head and looked silently at the gradually dim starry sky outside the window through the simple window. He knew that his plan had achieved the most critical step and laid the foundation for the entire strategic layout. No matter what happens next, his plan will be like a train filled with coal, rumble forward, and no one can stop it.
This ordinary day of the Holy Spirit Wish Chapel is called "Sindore's Redemption" in future elves history books. On this day, the three elves elders of the High Elves and the legendary stalker leader of the Old K Mercenary Group - the epic hero Cole, agreed on the "Salvation Oath".
When Baron Tyrosus returned to his office again, he was surprised to find that the three elves elders no longer had the excitement they had before, and there was a firmness in their dull expressions, as if they had made a major decision. The one-eyed dragon vaguely felt that he had made a big mistake, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
"Baron Terosos, after discussions with the three elders, we felt that there was indeed a great difficulty for the Silver Northern Expedition Army to help all the elves refugees. Therefore, we decided to leave the Holy Light Wish Chapel, just ask Baron Terosos to support some tents and food, and give the hundreds of elves refugees at present!" Xu Mo smiled and said something that the Baron couldn't believe.
"This...of course! But...where are you going?" the Baron widened his one-eye and asked with difficulty.
Although the departure of the elves refugees solved the problem of the Silver Northern Expedition Army, Baron Tyrosus felt unacceptable. After all, the purpose of the Silver Northern Expedition Army was to eliminate the Scourge and the Lich King, as well as to unite and help all races enslaved by the Scourge Army, especially their civilians.
"We plan to go to the death rift and the poisonous forest!" Xu Mo narrowed his eyes slightly and said plainly where the elf refugee was going.
"What!" Baron Terosos stood up from the chair in shock, and his sudden move overturned the chair under the seat.
