Chapter 220: Drawing Lots (1 Update)
"I've blocked the tunnel of the Stone Dam Trail......"
Valley of the Kings in Stormwind.
Orgrim looked at the letter sent by Kilrog, then at the messenger, and was silent for a long time before he said, "The dwarf has the ability to dig such a long tunnel, and he has the ability to dig another one." It's just a matter of time. It turns out that the offensive of Stormwind City and the wetlands is actually a feint! It was put on the table......"
Varok next to him reminded, "Great Chief, Blackstone Mountain has our Blackstone dwarven friends. ”
Orgrim was silent, if he chose to retreat, the Black Iron Dwarves, who were not allies in the first place, would immediately abandon the orcs and stick to their Dark Furnace City.
The Black Iron Dwarves gave a batch of Black Iron weapons for free for the sake of the Orcs and the Copperbeard Clan. If you want more, you have to exchange the orcs for ore.
In order to update the equipment of the orcs, the Great Chief has been asking various second- and third-rate clans to donate a large number of hard labor to mine in Blackstone Mountain.
The problem is that as the orc armies are cut down batch by batch like wheat harvesting, the orc ruling chain of [the big chief leads the first-line clan, and the first-line clan dominates the second- and third-rate clans] also begins to collapse.
The chiefs of the second- and third-rate clans did not have the courage to resist the orders of the great chieftain, after all, the orcs had the final say with their fists, but they could secretly make trouble. For example, cut off some of the supplies, weapons and equipment sent to the front-line clans.
This is the result of successive defeats - the prestige of the Great Chief is rapidly being eroded.
Looking into the distance, there was a group of laborers, who were forced to deliver by the orc warriors.
Their legs trembled, some shouting "Daddy" and some "Grandpa", and reluctantly descended into the streets of Stormwind. Then, a mechanical "Master, I don't have unpretty children like you!" "It sounded, and more than a dozen orc laborers either flew into the sky, or were pierced and hacked to death by various traps on the spot, and became meat sauce.
The Great Chief was silent for a moment, and then said, "Gather all the first-line clan chiefs!" ”
……
Three days later, the lakeside town of Chiji Mountain (occupied area).
In the newly built tent, all the first-line chiefs gathered.
Blackstone: Orgrim.
Blood Cave: Kilrog * Dead Eye.
Fire Blade: Samuro.
Dragon's Throat: Zuluhid.
Warsong: Grom Hellroar.
Representative of the Moknassa Clan: Lexa.
As well as the newly built Black Sails Fleet coach Derek Prodmoor.
In the opening scene, Orgrim shook the audience: "If there is no miscalculation, the orcs ...... It's going to be defeated! ”
Grom and Lexa stood up on the spot: "Great Chief, we can still fight!" ”
Zuluhid: "As long as you can open the door of darkness......"
"Fight, who dares to say that you can win? Open the door? Who can open the door!? Orgrim grimaced: "Wake up!" My compatriots, we haven't won a single battle in the last six months. It's not a matter of courage anymore. Varok, get those things out. ”
The first thing that came up was a ridiculously hard Thorsilver breastplate.
Everyone fell silent.
Unless it is a strong orc of centurion or above, who uses a black iron weapon to cut it, it is rare to be able to cut through this armor directly. It's almost impossible to kill those paladins in silver armor.
However, the opponent's Thursilver weapon can easily inflict damage on the orc warrior's body.
If it is a half-alliance powerhouse, forget about this equipment, the recent momentum is that there are more and more alliance soldiers wearing Thursilver and Mithril armor, and even ordinary soldiers have begun to wear steel armor.
This is typical equipment suppression.
The second was a cannon with a curved barrel.
"This thing, we paid the lives of 7 ogres and 51 orc warriors to dismantle it." Varok said softly.
The chiefs grew silent.
It is also an indisputable fact that he was beaten by the alliance with a ranged weapon.
Except for a strong man of Grom's grade, who would dare to say that he ignored the bombardment of artillery?
The scarce number of Gorons had been lost to Quel'Thalas, and the number of ogres brought from Draenor was originally small, and now there were more than a thousand left.
However, the artillery of humans and dwarves is becoming more and more like a trick.
Finally, there is the corpse of an orc.
At the sight of the corpses, the nameless fire of each orc chief surged upwards.
That's an orc messenger!
He planted a white flag on his back, according to human custom, but the messenger's head was gone, and the wolf's head was rudely sewn up from the wolf's head.
Humiliate!
Humiliation without mercy!
The wolf has a high status in the hearts of the orcs, and it is almost like the relatives of the orcs!
"Kill them! I'm going to kill all the humans! Grom's earth-shattering roar startled all the orcs in the camp.
After everyone was a little angry, Orgrim said calmly, "This is how the messenger I sent came back!" It was shoved onto a trebuchet and fired back, and fell into exactly one of the pools we were using. ”
"Kill all the humans!"
"Decisive battle! Fight to the death! ”
The chiefs roared!
In the frenzied atmosphere, the corners of O'Grim's mouth raised: "Decisive battle? Of course! As the Great Chief, I will naturally lead the Blackstone Clan and all the other orcs to seek a decisive battle with the Lordaeron Alliance! But there is one clan that must be an exception! ”
"Who? Is it a traitor? Damn Gul'dan? Or the Black Hand Brothers? I'm going to take the Warsong Clan and destroy them! "Of all the chiefs, Grom is the most excited!
Ogrim sighed, "We represent more than just our own clan! We are seeking a way to survive for all our fellow citizens in our world that is being destroyed! If we can't conquer this world of Azeroth, at least a path will be carved out for our compatriots who come after! ”
The chiefs froze.
In their opinion: perhaps this war was caused by Gul'dan's bewitchment, but the [Draenor] world they live in, with depleted resources, smaller hunting grounds, and poor prey, is the main reason that drives the orcs to launch a million-strong cross-planetary expedition.
They failed as an advance army, and the remaining orcs could certainly breathe because of the decrease in numbers, but the end of their last breath was still destruction.
The Grand Chief continued, "So I have decided to remove a first-class clan from the list of showdowns. This clan will be the kindling for the Twin Valleys, which will travel with Derek Proudmore to the southern, wettest, and chaotic region of the Thorn Valley on the continent. I hope he'll renew his alliance with some of the trolls. I've discovered that to conquer this world, you can't rely on orcs alone, orcs are the bravest warriors, but even the strongest warriors need the help of long-range weapons. ”
Orgrim suddenly stood up and roared loudly, "This is my absolute command as the Great Chief!" Defy? OK! If Makgoras beats me, then it's up to you. ”
The chiefs were silent.
Zuluhid gritted his teeth and said, "Which clan goes?" ”
"Draw lots!"
That night, the famous Warsong clan left the orc army assembly place.
