Chapter 192: Great War!
For several days, the sky over the wetland had been dark, with little sunlight visible, and the thick dark clouds were getting even lower. If it weren't for www.biquge.info pocket watch and timepiece, it would be impossible to accurately judge the time and date while staying here.
In just over ten minutes, Krilestaz arrived at the Alliance's headquarters with the little red dragons, and everyone suddenly arrived, almost causing a group of nervous soldiers to attack.
It's just that when the unbelievable upheaval took place in the south, when the Alliance army was at full capacity, it didn't matter even if there was no detailed information coming, even if it wasn't known whether the orcs would attack.
In the buffer zone at the forefront of the battle line, countless traps laid out in advance are waiting to erupt as they should be;
The grenades and explosives, provided by the dwarves and gnomes, were finally relieved of the magic that had been used for proper preservation, and were distributed box by box;
General Aurelia Windranger quickly climbed north to the top of the hill with a modest Queldore Ranger force, using the Ranger's reconnaissance skills to look down on the battlefield, their vision large enough to cover the entire Alliance's defenses;
The Queldore Fireblade Magister led by Ansumily Firewing and the Dalaran Battle Mage unit led by Harold Winston were the only two mage troops in the absence of the Kenrito Council, and could only be used as one of the Alliance's hole cards, and were left in the General Headquarters by Sir Lothar;
The Knights of the Silver Hand, led by Uther Lightbringer, and the priests of the Church of Light, led by Benedictas, were only slightly outnumbered by Queldore, and were also left in the headquarters by Ser Lothar;
The dwarves of the Brute Hammer tribe were only temporarily used as warriors after the complete defeat of the Griffin Knights, and at this time, under the personal leadership of King Cadros Brutehammer, together with the commander of the Terran soldiers, Danas Torbairn, went to the forefront of the position;
The Iron Horse Brotherhood has countless talented men, not only with their own skills, but also with a good hand in fighting alone, so they are scattered to all corners of the battlefield by Sir Lothar, and the well-trained two-handed swordsmen of the Grand Royal Swordsman Regiment are led by Sir Lothar himself as a mobile force, ready to support at any time;
As for Oss and his companions, as well as Crelestaz and the little red dragons, Ser Lothar only said one word: "Os, I don't know what kind of crisis awaits the Alliance in the south, but if we lose, you may be the only one who can save the situation!" ”
When Sir Lothar said this to Os, his heart was bitter. Previously, he hadn't seen the shadow energy pillar that penetrated the heavens and the earth with his own eyes, but he only guessed from the soldier's report that it should be the ability of that demigod-level demon lord, but he had never seen Oss fighting, so he couldn't compare the strength gap between Oss and demigod-level demon lords by subjective speculation.
Therefore, Sir Lothar can only fulfill his mission and responsibility as the generalissimo of the Alliance, and do his best to command this battle! And the rest of it, the unknown crisis, he chose to believe in Os!
One hour and twenty-eight minutes later!
The two turbo-accelerating vehicles sent by Gerbin Mekatok are still flying in the direction of Lokmodan to investigate the center of the energy explosion; The escaped Langar Far Mountain team is desperately running towards Ironforge on the snowy mountains; And General Aurelia, who was in charge of watching the battlefield, had already shot an unusually eye-catching signal arrow under the wetland sky!
The signal arrow that shot straight into the sky left a bright white tail flame in the air, and the magic contained in the arrow continued to emit a clear eagle sound, breaking the silence before the battle!
The long buffer zone, which runs nearly 100 kilometers from west to east, is full of orcs! Without any command, without any reservations, tens of thousands of soldiers camped in the wetlands rushed to the north on their own legs!
There was only one order from Gul'dan: "Attack!" Shred everything you see! ”
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
In just half a minute, the countless traps that filled the entire alliance's defense line were almost stepped on by the charging orcs at the same time!
With the deafening explosion roaring, the nearly 100-kilometer-long continuous tongue of fire erupted violently, and its power even completely dried up this section of the swamp, forming a narrow dry strip! But the dark green blood flowed wantonly, and the flying severed limbs and fallen corpses soon refilled this dried swamp, which became extremely terrifying!
However, even though they were trapped and killed thousands of people in an instant, the dead or injured orcs did not let out even a single wail, nor did they let out a single scream!
The roar of tens of thousands of orc soldiers, the sound of brave and courageous running, was heard more than ten kilometers away, and became even more crazy after seeing the blood! Be braver!
In the next moment, the Alliance and the Horde finally met for the second time after the last large-scale field battle! And the long defensive line arranged by Sir Lothar, in the face of the orcs pouring out of the nest and attacking completely at any cost, there were many casualties and small routs in an instant!
On this side, in the defense line commanded by Kadros, Yuregal, and Bilsnot, when the fire after the explosion weakened slightly, and the hordes of orc soldiers rushed out of the flames, the Hammer Dwarves shouted trumpets one after another, and launched a powerful counter-charge under the leadership of the king's land!
Dwarves are stronger than orcs in terms of weapons and armor, and in terms of physical hardness, dwarves in stone form are much better than orcs. In a short period of time, the Hammer Dwarves took the Terran soldiers and killed the orcs back more than 20 meters away with hammers and axes.
However, after a long time, the number of Brute Hammer Dwarves was too small, and the shortcomings of the poor individual quality of Terran soldiers were exposed. In addition, the fierce orcs who are not afraid of death become more and more courageous, tireless, and do not know the pain, and it didn't take long to cut the Brute Hammer Dwarves and Terran soldiers into small encirclements one by one, and killed them happily!
On the other side, in the battle line, which was completely defended by Terran soldiers under the command of Dallas, it stubbornly held the orcs in place, preventing them from advancing half a step!
Dallas was a man of great brains, and although his ancestor was the most valiant warrior of the entire human race, he was not a reckless man who could only wield a great axe. He commanded his soldiers, relying on huge bunkers buried deep in the ground, using black iron grenades, gnome sticky grenades, and goblin bombs purchased from goblins, which not only effectively killed and injured brainless orc soldiers, but also greatly reduced the damage of his own side.
The Alliance and the Horde, from the very first second of the engagement, went straight into the fierce battle! With the passage of time, in the open swamp of the wetland, it has truly become a tragic scene of corpses strewn all over the field and rivers of blood!
In less than half an hour after the battle began, the Alliance's defense line changed from a straight line to an irregular wavy line due to the different forces of the ground attack and the different commands. Gradually, more and more gaps appeared, causing more and more orcs to break through to the northern part of the wetland.
In the rear, Sir Lothar relied on the eagle-like lookouts of the Queldore rangers and their unparalleled subtle hearing to control the entire battle situation. He first dispatched Uther and Paladins to support the Hammer Dwarves and stabilize the local situation; Then, he sent Harold and the Battle Mage troops to assist Danas, quickly harvesting the battlefield and cutting through the orc army directly from the side, leaving the orcs severely disjointed and fighting on their own.
As for the thousands of orc soldiers who broke through the Alliance's defenses in the first wave of onslaught, Sir Lothar ordered the Fireblade Magister to stand by, and he personally led Tulayan, Ashkandi, and the Grand Royal Swordsmen into battle!
Although the battle had only lasted for half an hour, Sir Lothar had a keen eye on the rangers and was keenly aware that this time the all-out attack of the orcs was completely different from the previous ones. It can even be said that it is simply not comparable to the last field battle between the two sides.
Sir Lothar still didn't know what was going on with the orcs, but he could guess that this time the all-out attack of the orcs was definitely not commanded by Orgrim. And what he knows even more is that in the face of the disorderly and chaotic "bandits", the opportunity for the alliance to counterattack - finally came!
High in the air, Kazak looked disdainfully at the gradually degraded orcs on the ground, and couldn't figure out why the great king of all demons would look at orcs differently. However, it's none of his business: "Ha, that's all you orcs have?" ”
Guldan, who also flew high in the air and did not participate in the battle, explained: "The alliance has long been prepared, I heard that they have been prepared to deal with the Burning Legion at the beginning of the alliance, and the defense line here has always been very solid. ”
Kazak said casually: "The master will not listen to your explanation, Guldan. ”
Hearing this, Guldan directly lowered his head deeply, hiding his face in the pitch-black cloak: "Please Lord Kazak help my people, they won't last long." ”
"Hah! Ha! Hahaha! ”
The wild laughter, amplified by the power of the shadows, spread to a radius of thousands of miles in an instant! The Terrans, dwarves, and Quirdore on the battlefield all felt terrified! There were even some red-eyed Alliance soldiers who went crazy in this wild laughter, and they slashed with their knives and indiscriminately!
“revos-ill-ok'mordanas-archim'maz-naztheros!”
The demonic incantation resounded through the heavens and the earth again, and with each note, the dark green thunderclouds in the sky became more and more solid! It was as if it was stirred by invisible big hands, forming dozens of huge whirlpools!
Then, when the dozens of huge whirlpools rotated faster and faster, and when they reached their limit, each whirlpool spat out a meteorite burning with evil energy flames, and swooped down and smashed into the densest place of the crowd!
At this moment, at the rear, only the general headquarters of the Flame Blade Magister Regiment remained. Looking at the hellfires in the sky that were about to land, Os drew his sword and said to his companions beside him, "It's time for us to go to war!" ”
Then, there was a high-pitched dragon chant that had been amplified by magic, no less than that of Kazak, and it sounded like an earth-shattering sound!
