Chapter 316 The form took a sharp turn

However, Vane's ideas were good, but things never went as planned.

A short time after they met with Walker, the door to the house opened again, and a dwarven warrior walked in and reported, "Commander, a large army of green-skinned monsters has arrived, and the humans have told you to hurry up to the city walls." ”

"What? Our large army has not yet arrived, and the large army of these orcs has arrived first? Walker roared when he heard the news of the dwarven warrior's report.

Vane also frowned when he heard the news, if he didn't make a move, it would be a fool's dream to fight against millions of orcs with less than 20,000 guards, even if he could make a move, it was hard to say. Is Stormwind really going to be untenable?

Thinking of this, Vane said to Walker, "Walker, let's go and have a look together." ”

"Okay, follow me." Walker also understood at this time that it was useless to just roar here, so he rushed to the direction of the city wall with Vane and them.

"To be honest, Vane, I thought you were going to take the subway with the civilians of Stormwind City to take refuge in Ironforge Fortress, but I didn't expect you to stay here, it's great." Walker turned to Vane and the others as he walked.

"Oh~? We are here to stay, and you seem to be quite happy. No sooner had Walker finished his sentence than Valilla interjected.

"Of course." Walker ignored Valera's mocking tone and replied directly, "You know, Vane is very smart and can always think of ideas that no one else can think of. I wouldn't have known you were still here if it weren't for the fact that the human Commander Lothar had overheard you this morning and told me that you were still here. Seriously, when I led the team, I searched for you among the civilians of Stormwind who had already arrived at Ironforge Fortress, but I didn't find you. ”

"Really? You didn't want us to come with you and fight these orcs. Barka asked, leaning forward to look at Walker's side face.

"That's right, Balk, you're smart sometimes." Walker suddenly admitted with a smile.

"I've always been very smart." As soon as Barka heard Walker's words, he immediately shouted loudly.

Soon, the group came to the city wall.

"The army of green-skinned monsters has arrived, how are the reinforcements from Ironforge Castle?" As soon as Walker and Vane and the others arrived at the top of the city wall, Commander Lothar hurriedly walked over with the officers behind him and asked.

"It's going to take some time, and it's already the fastest we've been able to assemble. You should know what kind of situation our army is like, don't you? Walker then looked at the orc camp below the city by holding the battlements on the city wall, and said to Commander Lothar with a sad face.

It's not that Walker is perfunctory, it's not that Ironforge is deliberately delaying, and that's exactly what happened. The soldiers of the dwarven army are rotated, which means that most of the dwarves are dwarven warriors, except for the officers, the dwarven warriors live a peaceful life in their hometowns, except for the dwarves who are in their turn to serve.

In the event of an invasion, the dwarven warriors in the village will fight the invaders, and the news will be quickly transmitted to other surrounding villages. Over time, more and more dwarven warriors will gather, and dwarven officers will quickly arrive from Ironforge until the invaders are finally defeated.

As far as defending against invasions is concerned, dwarves react very quickly. Sacrifice a portion of the dwarven warriors to delay the enemy's attack and give the rear time to counterattack. However, if it is an initiative to assemble troops, it will be much slower. Because it has to be notified to each village.

Commander Lothar also knew about the dwarves' situation, but he still came to inquire with the hope of what happened. Knowing that there was no hope, Commander Lothar sighed and said, "We must delay until reinforcements arrive, but the balance of forces between our two sides is too great, and the hope is too slim. ”

"That's true in terms of the strength of both sides. There are so many orcs there are more than we are, and they can exhaust us to death as long as they take turns attacking the city. Walker looked at the huge number of orcs under the city and said with the same concern.

Walker then asked Commander Lothar, "What about your garrisons elsewhere?" Any news? ”

"There is news, but it's not good news." Commander Lothar shook his head and said with a sad face, "Those orcs, well, are they orcs?" The large army of those orcs did not come for so long for no reason, and we received news that many troops that had set out to help were ambushed by these orcs. Only a handful of warriors escaped the fate of death. In order to obtain specific information about the orcs, our intelligence department lost a large number of good thieves but found nothing. These orcs are very aware of our patterns of action. ”

Commander Lothar's voice fell, and for a moment there was silence between them.

After a while, Walker couldn't think of any effective strategy, so he turned to Vane and asked, "Do you have any good ideas, Kid Wayne?" ”

Walker's inquiry made Commander Lothar also turn his head to look at Vane, he remembered that these High Elves were the ones who provided Stormwind with the information about the orc attack, but unfortunately Stormwind City was not able to seize the opportunity to set up defenses, which made things develop to this point. Seeing the dwarven commander asking these High Elves now made him curious.

"What do you mean?" Vane looked at Walker suspiciously, and asked, "You know, I don't know anything about marching and fighting, so what kind of idea do you want?" What kind of purpose or effect is to be achieved? ”

"Oh shit, you should learn this. I remember telling you about this a long time ago. Well, now is not the time to say this. What I want: delay, as fast as possible for the damn orcs to attack, preferably to delay the siege entirely. After listening to Vane's words, Walker immediately made his request.

"I know you did tell you about it, but I'm just an adventurer, and I'll never be able to master the army in Quel'Thalas, but I want you to promise that I'll learn a bit about it after this time." Vane first gave Walker some reassurances, and then carefully considered what to do in this situation.

After a while, he said to Walker: "I do have an idea, but the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, and it may not be easy to use." ”

"Don't worry about that for now, you can tell your mind first." Walker doesn't care if the idea Vane said works or not, now in this case, he has to try it anyway, what if it works?

"Okay." Vane spoke his mind under the watchful eyes of Walker and Commander Lothar.
