Chapter 514: The Mighty Pass is Hard to Break

The defenses of the Gate of Damnation are beyond anyone's imagination.

It is more than 50 meters high, and it is built in the narrowest place between the two mountain ranges, like a tiger, guarding the road.

To the west of the checkpoint is the Icecrown Glacier, and to the east of the checkpoint is the Keel Wilderness, where the Xiongguan blocks the way, completely cutting off the offensive route of the coalition forces.

"Kill!"

"For the Alliance!"

"For Kazmodan!"

Muradin. As the vanguard of the coalition forces, Copperbeard led Kazmodan's soldiers to the Gate of Damnation.

But when he saw the defense level of the Gate of Damnation, he was also dumbfounded.

He first instructed the mages of the dwarven kingdom to bombard the city wall with spells, but the Gate of Damnation was completely made of steel, and it also contained a lot of Saron evil iron and a small part of obsidian, and the magic resistance was not ordinarily high, and the fireball of the basin smashed on it without even leaving a scorch mark.

In the middle of the Gate of Damnation there is a gate that looks twenty meters high and fifty meters wide, this gate was smashed by the dwarves with a battering ram for a long time, there was no movement at all, it was like ringing a bell, and the sound was clattering.

Many of the dwarven soldiers died one after another, and the corpses piled up at the city gate, but the thick gate still did not move.

"Your Highness, you can't attack so hard, it's too much of a loss!" Old Fording hurriedly ran to advise.

Vanessa also saw the dilemma encountered by the dwarves in attacking the city, and immediately nodded, and the soldiers beside her hurriedly sounded the giant gong to let the soldiers withdraw.

"Give me some time, we dwarves can build siege towers higher than that wall, and I will definitely be able to break through this breach by then." Muradin. As soon as Copperbeard returned to the coalition headquarters, he made a decent suggestion.

Vanessa crossed her hands and pressed her elbows against the table in thought.

Crossing the sea and launching the Northern Expedition, of course she prepared a killer weapon, but she didn't want to open her hole cards so early, at least she couldn't use it casually on the Gate of Damnation.

The dwarf's method is to attack hard, this method is not clever, she believes in the dwarf's technique, let alone a fifty-meter siege tower, no matter how high it is, they can make it.

"Okay, I'll ask the logistics side to provide you with materials, please start work as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Although she didn't like hard attacks, she didn't refuse the dwarves' enthusiasm for fighting.

"Tomorrow we will continue to attack! I'd like to see how strong this damned gate is. ”

The next day, many artillery pieces entered the firing position, with the gunner Willy's order, a thousand guns opened fire together, and continued to shell for an hour, the sound of explosions came and went, but the smoke and dust dissipated, and everyone found that the shelling only killed some ghouls on the city, and the damage to the city wall was still very limited.

Another day passed, and Vanessa and the druids began digging the ground, planting plants underground, preparing to destroy the foundations under the walls.

However, the vitality of the plant is inhibited by the strong power of death, and the growth is extremely slow, and it is estimated that it may not be able to grow in ten years.

I tried to capture the level by airborne soldiers, but more than a dozen frost dragons have been wandering in the sky, and the dense number of gargoyles that can't see the number is also firmly in control of the airspace of the Gate of Damnation, and the flying battleship and the void dragon can't pass at all.

Vanessa had a big brain, tried several methods in a row, and finally failed.

The undead have not been idle for the past three days, either throwing ghouls, sending gargoyles to sneak up, and sometimes simply using meat grinders to throw plague barrels at the coalition forces.

In the remote corners of the Dragonbone Wilderness, there are still many undead stationed in some places in Zudak, and the Lich King gathers these miscellaneous soldiers together, and whenever it is dead of night and the coalition soldiers are most tired, he sends these miscellaneous soldiers to attack the coalition camp.

Vanessa sent the Night Elves' Sentinels and the Blood Elves' Travelers to guard the perimeter, notifying Old Fording and the Knights of the Silver Hand if they found any trace of the enemy.

A cavalry regiment of 2,000 paladins is enough to defeat an undead army of less than 10,000 people.

The benefits of fighting in a daze are also reflected at this time, the coalition army can be said to be full of camps, as long as there is no wave, relying on a solid defensive setting, a thousand troops can carry 10,000 undead for a whole day.

With the idea of seeing one, killing one, and burning one, the coalition forces set up a dense camp in the large area from Vodasil to the Gate of Damnation.

Huntresses, Scouts, and Void Dragon Soldiers are in charge of scouting, and whenever they find any trace of an undead soldier, they notify the coalition forces, and they defend it camp by camp, relying on the location to consume the undead forces.

"We pause our assault on the Gate of Damnation, and here it is, right at our feet! Build a company camp and let the Lich King attack! ”

"What?" Muradin. Copperbeard and the coalition kings and leaders of the main battle are stupid, you hit the door of the undead's house, and suddenly say that you won't fight, and then build a lot of defenses, waiting for the other party to attack?

"That's right! I want to look for the flaws of the undead, and only when they themselves reveal their flaws can we hope to break through the gates of damnation. ”

“...... We neither fight, nor retreat, just stay here? "Muradin. Brass looked at her in astonishment.

"That's right! We're stuck here, waiting for the Lich King to attack, and rest assured, I've prepared supplies for the coalition to consume for a year. ”

The kings and leaders of the coalition were a little slanderous, they felt that Vanessa was cowardly, and this tactic of sitting in front of the enemy's house was really unheard of.

"Yes, Your Highness." Old Ferding took the lead in supporting, and the generals of Lordaeron also received their orders, and the dwarves and blood elves had to agree to this method.

Arrow towers were built every 100 meters, and between the towers were bricks and stones, and there were holes in the battlements to facilitate the soldiers' attacks. Such a wall is not one, but built regardless of cost and man-hours, with large walls and small walls, and seven floors are repaired inside and out!

The allied soldiers may not be able to farm when they return to China, but after the training of building camps, the skills of masons and carpenters can basically be mastered, and it is certainly no problem to work as a big worker in the village when there is nothing to do.

Vanessa took the lead in person, leading everyone to build the wall.

In her previous life, she definitely wouldn't have done this, but who is she now? First Master Builder of Azeroth, who presided over and built three main cities, and also received the power of Kazgros, even the Titans recognized her talent for architecture.

The Undead Legion didn't understand what Vanessa was doing at first, but after two days of waiting, the Lich King observed for a while, and only then did he roughly understand her intentions.

The Lich King almost didn't think much about it, anyway, he has a strong army, and he is not afraid of attrition at all, and dying some undead can also reduce his mental consumption, if you say war, then fight.

Immediately open the gate of damnation and send a large army to battle.
