Chapter 323: Reinforcements Arrive
Chapter 323: Reinforcements Arrive
In Stormwind, on the night of the first day that the orc army was once again repulsed, the first reinforcements from Ironforge finally arrived. 100,000 dwarven warriors, plus 30,000 gnome puppet troops, 20,000 gnomes, musketeers, technicians, mages, and more.
The next day, Vane arrives at combat headquarters and discovers that in addition to Walker, Muradin is also there.
"Hey, Muradin? Why are you here? Vane was a little surprised, "You shouldn't be leading the dwarven reinforcements, right?" ”
"That's right, man." Muradin heard Vane's voice and turned around and ran to Vane's side, patted Vane and said, "I heard that Walker kid say, you've been in a lot of limelight lately?" Those human mages seem to be looking after you. ”
"Nothing." Vane shook his head and said, "They're just a little surprised by the way I use my spells. ”
Of course, this is not the case. After the human mages calmed down, they found that they could not sense the magical energy from the spells released by Vane, so they knew very well that Vane was probably a Grand Arcanist. So most human mages wanted to learn something from Vane, with the exception of a few people, such as the white-haired mage named Khadgar who followed Commander Lothar. Muradin himself knew this, so he laughed and teased Vane.
Walking a few steps up to Commander Walker and Lothar and Prince Varian, Vane asked, "Do we have any questions now?" ”
"There is no problem for the time being, there is no other news yet, the thieves are now eyeing the large army of orcs. When they make a move, they will report back immediately. Varian sat down on the throne and introduced to Vane.
He had always seen Varian on the city wall before, and Vane hadn't felt anything yet, but this time he found Varian sitting on the main seat, which made Vane stunned.
You know, the main position is not something that anyone can do. Generally speaking, only the supreme commander of the unit can do it. However, Varian is clearly not the supreme commander of the army, but he sits on the throne, which only shows one thing, that is, Varian has now succeeded as the king of the kingdom of Azeroth. This is the only way to explain the situation here.
It's no wonder that Vane has been wondering since the start of the war, why he hasn't heard any orders from King Ryan, he thought that King Ryan had entrusted the task of defending Stormwind City to the supreme commander of the human race, and Varian just came to learn from it, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
But Vane didn't pay much attention to that. He nodded to Varian, and a human thief ran in from outside the door and said, "Report, the orcs have already started to move, but what makes us wonder why they are not coming in the direction of Stormwind City, but in the direction of Night Town to the southeast. ”
"Oh?" Commander Lothar saluted Varian slightly, then turned to the human thieves and asked, "Have you ever investigated what is going on over there in Nighttown, and why are they heading in the direction of Nighttown?" ”
"When I returned, I had already sent people over, but I don't know exactly what happened yet." The human thief replied.
Hearing this, Commander Lothar waved his hand and let the human thief who had rushed back down. Then, before he could speak, Muradin said to the dwarven heralds, "Let the two dwarf pilots check what is going on in Nighttown." ”
The dwarven herald had just saluted and was about to leave, when Commander Lothar seemed to have something in mind, and then Muradin's words said to the dwarven herald, "Wait, send one more pilot to Lakeside Town to see where the returning army is." ”
The dwarven herald looked at Muradin, and after Muradin nodded, he saluted and passed the order.
After the herald left, Muradin asked, "Do you think why these orcs are heading in the direction of Nighttown?" ”
"It's just my guess." Commander Lothar stood up and pointed to the map and said to Muradin, "You see, this is Stormwind, and all we know so far is that the orcs first emerged from here, attacked Night Town through the Everglades and the Windward Trail, and then fought their way west. However, in order to prevent the trolls in the Valley of Thorns that are connected to the area of Nighttown, we have placed heavy troops at the entrance to the Valley of Thorns. I wonder if it was because the orcs had discovered the reinforcements there, so they wanted to turn around and annihilate them before they could join up with the rest of the army. ”
"Oh? So there should be other reinforcements? Muradin, who had just arrived and didn't know enough about the form, asked.
"There's also a reinforcement force, which is stationed there in Lakeside Town, mainly to defend against those Black Iron Dwarves." Before Commander Lothar could speak, Walker, who was standing next to Muradin, spoke: "In fact, the invasion of these orcs is too sudden, and Stormwind City is unprepared, so they are allowed to fight here, plus the troops stationed in the Xiquan Fortress next to it were also suddenly defeated by those orc troops when they returned to help, and they were almost completely annihilated, otherwise we would not be trapped in the city, and we must wait for reinforcements from Ironforge Fort before we can act." ”
After Walker finished speaking, Commander Lothar pointed to the map and continued: "This is Nighttown, this is Lakeside Town, and this place is a place called Triangle Crossing, this place can lead to Nighttown or Lakeside Town, so if the orcs are not attacking in the direction of Nighttown, then Lakeside Town is also possible." The worst-case scenario is that they attack one of them and then the other, so we don't really have any more reinforcements. ”
"So we should set off at once, follow them, and find a way to join the armies of Lakeside and Nightlight, right?" Muradin looked at the current form of the Commander of Lothar on the map, walked around twice, put all the information together, considered it for a while, and said.
Commander Lothar's meaning is obvious, there are only 10,000 human troops in Stormwind now, and even if they are pursued, it is useless, so reinforcements from dwarves and gnomes are needed to attack. But the commander of the reinforcements of the dwarves and gnomes was Muradin. Therefore, the Dwarves and Gnome troops needed to speak in order for the Dwarves and Gnome troops to move.
"That's right. That's it. Commander Lothar didn't hide anything, and directly admitted.
"Very well, then do it." Muradin nodded and shouted outside, "Inform the troops to assemble and prepare to go......"
