Chapter 273 Oppression
On this day, more than 200,000 elves were driven out of the main city of TEDALO by the human army. I said before that there were about 450,000 elves in the city. Before, Ye Junwen and his friends sent them back in the first batch of 50,000, and there were still 400,000 left. Why were only 200,000 people coming out? In addition to some of them starving to death, there were actually many elves who were unwilling to leave the main city.
Yes, after all, they have lived in the main city since childhood. Although the main city has been occupied by humans now, they are still unwilling to leave their hometowns. So when the human soldiers come to drive them away, they directly expressed their unwillingness to leave and would die here even if they die.
The soldiers of the human race didn't care about them, and the marshal did not order that all the people who did not leave were killed. So he gathered the people who were willing to leave for a moment, and then gathered them all to leave, and the rest ignored them. Anyway, they had plundered all the things that could be plundered in the city these days, and it was not their business that the people of the elves survived. They asked them to find a way for themselves.
The 200,000 people of the Elf Clan didn't bring anything at all and set off empty-handedly. The Elf Clan members have some similar feelings to their compatriots, so they are quite loving, especially in this heavy environment, everyone is suffering, so they also support each other and find ways to get out of the forest. Of course, the Elf Clan soldiers on the side have also received news in advance and welcomed their arrival on the other side of the forest.
Although the hostages were released, not all, the result was that all the elves were very satisfied. After all, most of the people were back. However, it was still a headache to deal with the 250,000 people (including the batch I came back before). The first question is of course food.
The human race never cares about the food issues of these elves. Not only do they care about it, they also snatch the food of these civilians at will. After all, the city has been captured by the human race, so the things inside are all from the human race. They robbed and robbed with reasonable evidence. This has led to most elves who have never eaten in the past few days. Fortunately, the elves have relatively good physiques. Even if they haven't eaten for three or four days, they can still have some action. Otherwise, these elves may not be able to cross the forest to meet with their troops.
However, although their physique is slightly better than humans, they are not unable to starve to death. There are already many weak elves in the city who have starved to death. If they don’t eat, they will probably not be able to last long. The only thing they can eat is military rations, which gives Yi Erwen an unusual headache.
Yes, they do have military rations. The army they joined with them a few days ago brought a lot of food. However, the problem is that first of all, there is no military ration for so many people who can provide 250,000 people. Secondly, this is military ration. If the people eat, what will the army eat? If the soldiers in the army are not full, how can they face the enemy?
However, it is useless to say that these are because the elves' concept is that everyone is equal, so there is no idea that you are a soldier and you come first. So there is no need to discuss this matter. If you have something to eat together, you have no choice to distribute food. The question Yi Erwen has to consider now is where to get food from.
"Where to evacuate?" The general of the Elf tribe heard the order of Yilwen to evacuate. He felt that he could not fight, but the problem was to evacuate there.
"North... north." Yierwen hesitated for a moment, then said.
"North?" The general was stunned for a moment. The reason was very simple, because the north was not the territory of their country. I said before that the north was the territory of the Kingdom of Mazdo, so what Ilwen meant was to let them run towards the borders of the dwarves?
"If the human army is dispatched now, we cannot run to the east and west at all, we can only retreat from the north." Yilwen said.
"In this case, we have to pass through the borders of the dwarves?" asked the general.
"There's no way," said Yilwen, "Anyway, let's act first."
"Yes." The general could only nod and then send an order. It is indeed impossible to retreat westward now. Although they also wanted to do this, it was obvious that according to their speed of action, they were directly intercepted by the human race to the west, and they could not run over at all.
"Notify the Guards and let them prepare to fight the enemy." Yilwen said again.
"What? I... understand." The general was stunned at first, and then nodded. Yes, Yierwen meant that the army left a part of the army to resist the human race. The elves' march speed is slow now, so even if they flee to the north, they will be caught up by the human race's troops, so some of the army needs to be left behind. The guards mentioned by Yierwen are the 20,000 troops that escaped from the main city before, and they are responsible for blocking the human race's troops.
Soon all the people of the elves knew about this news. When the human troops were chasing again, the people of the elves were also scared and their first reaction was to run away. They had no luggage to pack up, and soon, under the guidance of the soldiers, they began to retreat to the north.
Yilwen was still in the barracks, and soon she received further news that the human army was indeed divided into several teams, and they began to encircle their troops from three sides. As her judgment, she could not go any other route. The only place to retreat was the north, because there was the territory of the Kingdom of Mazdo and there were no human troops there.
Yi Erwen did not leave, and she left behind with her 20,000 troops, while the other 15,000 soldiers led the people to continue to advance north. After waiting for a while, the human troops also surrounded and densely packed troops directly surrounded their camp. Seeing the other troops, the remaining elves were also very nervous. The previous war had already made them feel a little afraid of the human troops. When they saw the human army again, they were a little panicked.
