Chapter 228: The Pioneer of Sorrow (2 more)
watched his familiar soldiers being pressed under huge wheels;
Seeing mutilated human limbs flying into the air;
Hear the hellish screams;
Danas Tolbain's heart sank into the endless abyss.
For some reason, he remembered the strange words that Commander-in-Chief Lothar had said yesterday before he left.
"Are you sure you want to grab this vanguard? Do you know what that means? The vanguard means the greatest danger, and no matter what new weapons the enemy has, the vanguard army is the first to take it. Of course, if they win, the Pioneer will also receive the greatest honor......"
Danas replied: "Every Arathi Highlander is incomparably sure!" Thank you to the Alliance for helping us reclaim Fort Riptide, we are not afraid of sacrifice, now is the time for us to give back to the Alliance! ”
Lothar was silent for a long time, he was an upright man, and he did not hide McDonald's judgment: "Yesterday the Duke of Stratholme discovered something wrong, or rather, a clue. It's likely that the enemy has a very powerful weapon, a bit like a dwarven chariot, but we can't be sure what it is, and it's too late. ”
"Huh?"
"And then we have a situation where the coalition is left with no food. If we fail to end this war before autumn comes, a large number of refugees will starve to death on the southern continent, and we will not be able to sustain the war of more than 300,000 troops in the old territory of the Stormwind Kingdom by sea. ”
Danas was silent, and the orcs arrived, destroying everything.
Slaughter villages and cities, and then burn down the cultivated land of the humans in order to turn the land into their favorite hunting grounds.
On this side of the Stormwind Kingdom, many people were lucky enough to escape the first catastrophe, and they hid in various caves and mines, swearing to resist the invasion of the orcs.
However, as time went on, many caves and mines ran out of food, and they had to venture out to forage for food, only to be found and killed by the orcs in the occupied territories.
After liberating the western wilderness, the Stormwind Kingdom was pleasantly surprised to find that it still had 80,000 people alive, but most of these hungry refugees were malnourished and in extremely poor health. A lot of the food brought from Lordaeron has reached the stomachs of the refugees.
Ironically, for the past year, the fertile land outside the pit could not be cultivated, as it would have attracted orc slaughter. It was only in remote mountainous areas such as Dagger Ridge in the southwest of the western wilderness that some peasants had the courage to grow potatoes in the mountains and harvested part of their rations.
The reality is that the orcs can't bear it, and the alliance can't afford it either.
It's up to you to see who falls first!
Danas took over the position of vanguard, but he underestimated the orc's followers after all.
The [Iron Star] is a huge weapon of war, and it is not something that human power can fight against at all.
A strong warrior professional he knew, let out a roar of rage, and blocked a large steel ball with his shield. However, a terrible scene ensued.
The imaginary picture of pulling mountains and rivers and blocking the weapons of war did not happen, but the big steel ball moved.
"Boom!"
I saw that the black steel ball full of spikes emitted a bright and brilliant light, and after a violent shock, the whole thing exploded. Then there was a shocking explosion and blinding firelight, which exploded like a grand fireworks at a festival.
A radius of 100 meters, not a single inch of grass grows!
The saplings that were not tall, the soldiers who were fleeing, were all blown to ashes. Beyond that, a large number of soldiers fell as if they had been harvested.
The exploding metal shrapnel, like the scythe of death, easily harvested the lives of soldiers.
I can't beat it, I can't stop it!
Danas only felt his scalp tingle, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Withdraw! Withdraw first! ”
It's something that no human can compete with!
There is no hope of winning at all!
When Danas turned around and saw the soldiers of the Alliance who were in great order and receding like a tide, he felt even more like he had been betrayed—everyone, had you all been notified?
His mouth was suddenly full of bitterness!
How did I grab a pit?
The chaotic scene didn't allow him to think too much.
Danas's knights of the guard could no longer care so much, and they tugged at the reins of his horse and galloped backwards with his horse.
Two legs will definitely not be able to outrun the huge iron ball rolling behind it!
Four-legged words...... Look at your luck!
It's messy!
The forward force of 20,000 men was completely disorganized.
The chaos reached its peak when more than twenty of the Iron Stars all arrived at the Alliance's vanguard units.
And immediately behind the [Iron Star] were hundreds of thousands of orcs holding flame weapons aloft. They bared their teeth and claws, wielding scorching deadly weapons, and roared loudly to vent their frustration at being driven back to the old lordship of the Stormwind Kingdom by the Alliance.
Orgrim was also in the charge, and he couldn't see that the Alliance army was retreating in an orderly manner behind the chaotic Alliance forwards.
"A row of five! Three feet apart, stride! "Mograini stood on the edge of a broad stone bridge, his sword immense, his figure like a needle of the sea, so that the soldiers in blood-red armor retreated without confusion.
To Mograini's outrageousness, a certain duke seemed to have foreseen the defeat, and just a few minutes before the main force of the alliance began to retreat across the river, Stratholme soldiers carried signs with large arrows to guide the soldiers of each legion where to go after crossing the river.
A great retreat that was originally very likely to be a rout was turned into an armed parade by someone's extremely strong foresight and dominance.
It turned out to be good.
People and ghosts all run away, and the Arashi people are beaten.
Danas and his men really need a capital 'miserable' on their faces to express the resentment in their hearts.
Danas's only consolation was that the bastards of the Alliance hadn't sold the Arathi completely. When the legions retreated, they left only the three stone bridges in the middle for them.
Each deck is 10 meters wide and made of stone and cement, making it absolutely sturdy.
But is it useful to just run away?
Danas didn't think that a small river of Der Spiegel could really stop those huge four-story steel balls and hundreds of thousands of orcs.
To put it mildly, even if the orcs found a random pile of rotten wood, they could temporarily block the river and make it a state that could be crossed.
At this moment, [Jun Muqi], who was riding on the griffin, shouted: "Auntie! ”
Most of the Alliance soldiers had just crossed the river when they suddenly heard a muffled sound from under the ground in the direction of Shining Gold Town, like the roar of dozens or hundreds of buildings collapsing.
They looked back in amazement to find that the terrible steel balls behind them, as well as the tens of thousands of orcs armed with fire blades, were gone!
"Ahhh
Countless screams were stunned by the rumbling sound of the sky falling apart.
The soldiers of the alliance generally do not have a high field of vision and cannot get a glimpse of the whole picture, and only the rangers who stand on the top of the West Spring Fortress with McDonald, or the rangers who stand on the top of the trees, can barely see - the earth has collapsed!
