Chapter 159: The Army of the Undead

Although he did not want to see Alsace go north, it was impossible for Song Zheng to stop His Royal Highness the prince with his current strength.

In fact, it is estimated that no one in Lordaeron will be able to stop Arthas from doing what Arthas wants to do, after all, Terenus is already old, and his prestige among the kingdom's army is not even as high as Arthas.

And with the reconquest of Tarenmir by Arthas, his popularity among the populace will probably increase again, and no one in the kingdom will be able to suppress him.

"Is this the so-called fate...... Forget it, there is too much gap between the current situation and the history of Warcraft, and we can only take one step at a time. Song Zheng could only sigh in the end.

Unexpectedly, when Song Zheng led people out of the city with the army, he found that Gianna had also left Andohar with the troops.

"Her Royal Highness Princess...... You also go to Talonshire? Song Zheng was quite stunned by this, he really didn't expect Gianna to leave Andohar at this time.

"Yes, you have led those adventurers to support the warriors of Dalong County, how can I, the vice president, stay in the city, I have brought all the mages of the investigation team this time, I should be able to help you a little." Gianna laughed.

Song Zheng couldn't help but be a little speechless, he did half-jokingly let Gianna serve as the vice president of his guild before, but he didn't expect her to take it seriously.

"But His Highness Arthas is about to go north, and Princess, aren't you waiting for him in Andorjar?"

"Alsace...... Don't wait for him......" Gianna let out a low sigh and said nothing more.

Song Zheng couldn't say anything more when he saw this, he was not easy to participate in this kind of emotional matter, not to mention that the identities of Alsace and Gianna were very special.

However, with the participation of the Dalaran investigation team led by Gianna herself, the strength of the support force this time has been greatly enhanced.

Due to the urgency of the military situation ahead, the men marched very fast, and when the army crossed the Sodoril River, the surrounding scenery changed dramatically.

Originally, this area was fertile farmland due to its proximity to the Sodoril River, but now it is deserted, and the former farms are overgrown with weeds and seem to be filled with some pale green haze, which makes people afraid to approach.

This made Song Zheng a little worried, although the current plague is said to only be spread by contaminated food, but if exposed to this green poisonous fog for too long, I am afraid that it will slowly become infected with the plague.

"These plagues are always a trouble...... Song Zheng sighed, even if he is a traverser, there is no good way to deal with it.

In the World of Warcraft game, the purification of the Plaguelands was many years later, and it was the druids and paladins who were able to slowly purify it.

Now the druids are still sleeping in the caves of Kalimdor, and there is no way they can come to help clean up the plague.

Gianna nodded with emotion on the side and said, "Yes, it's a pity that we can't study anything with our current ability, maybe ...... The elves of Quel'Thalas will be able to find a solution to these plagues, as they have been passed down for thousands of years and are far superior to humans in the study of magic. ”

"High Elves? Can they crack this plague......" Song Zheng frowned slightly.

In the Warcraft game, the performance of the High Elves is not very good, but that should be limited by the game, in fact, those guys have inherited the magic civilization of the upper elves, and they have experienced thousands of years of development, and their strength should not be underestimated.

Like human mages, affected by lifespan and talent, it is likely that it will be difficult to break through the legend in a lifetime, and it is even difficult to reach level sixteen to become an archmage, but with the lifespan of thousands of years at every turn, as long as you are willing to learn, you can become an archmage sooner or later.

Therefore, in this real world, the High Elves may not be as weak as in the game, and they may be very strong in their magical knowledge.

"I'll have to go to Silvermoon City in the future, and I'll remember that Sylvanas invited me." Thinking of the beautiful Ranger General, Song Zheng's heart suddenly began to get excited again.

Although in the history of Warcraft, Silvermoon City was breached by the undead and Sylvanas died heroically, but now history has changed a lot, and Sylvanas's fate is also likely to be changed.

As the troops went deeper, many abandoned villages could be seen on the roadside, which could not be effectively defended, and the residents had already fled.

However, after continuing to walk, a large number of corpses began to appear on the side of the road, and the air was filled with an extremely strong smell of blood, which made people feel a little suffocated.

It's clear that we're starting to get closer to the battlefield!

"Everybody be careful." Song Zheng reminded that he had already learned the conspiracy of the Cursed Church many times, and knew that those guys liked to sneak attack.

A large number of scouts were sent out, these were all adventurers under Song Zheng, and as long as some reconnaissance missions were issued, they could rush to investigate.

But the adventurers soon returned, and their faces were terrified.

"Oh no, there's an enemy ahead!"

"Oh, how many?"

"This ...... We can't count ......"

Song Zheng originally wanted to criticize some of these adventurers for not being professional enough, but he soon discovered that these adventurers were not lying...... There are too many enemies ahead!

This time, the Church of the Damned did not use any conspiracy, but prepared to intercept their supporting forces head-on.

At this moment, a large number of undead were swarming along the main road, and at a glance, they could only see a piece of black, and the black front line was rushing towards their side like a tide.

Song Zheng couldn't help licking his lips, the scale of the undead army in front of him made him feel a little dry in his mouth.

The other generals and soldiers around him also looked changeable...... No one thought that they would encounter so many undead in the first battle.

"Formation!" Gavinrad's figure was not very tall, but his voice was majestic and high-pitched, and it resounded almost throughout the battlefield.

The soldiers who were in a panic finally sobered up a little at the sound of this majestic order, and hurriedly set up a defensive formation according to their previous training.

The individual strength of humans is not outstanding in the world of Azeroth, and even lower than that of many intelligent races, so they still rely more on group combat when fighting.

The infantry quickly raised their shields, built a steel shield wall on the front line, and quickly advanced like a levee facing the tide.

As the bolts rained down, the knights also began to charge.

Even though he knew that he might never come back after charging, none of the knights retreated...... On the first day of the knights' training, they knew that the knights would only die in the charge.
