Chapter 289: Stratholme's Counterattack
In any war, close quarters are always the heaviest casualties - such as the Battle of the Walls of Stratholme. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
On the narrow walls, the mages can't be used at all, and the number of paladins on the defending side is also scarce, so the defense task here is handed over to Stratholme's army - after all, the orcs charge is fine, and it is really difficult for them to defend, and a hot-headed orc will be led by the nose by the devil.
Although Stratholme's soldiers are heavily armoured, they are still vulnerable to the Doomsday Guards.
The Doomward Guardian is not very strong in melee combat among demons, but this "not strong" is already "very strong" for ordinary human soldiers.
These monstrous demons with wings on their backs often wield swords and slash indiscriminately—and although their martial arts are unruly, their strength far exceeds that of ordinary human soldiers, but they still inflict heavy casualties on the Stratholmes.
One force will drop ten!
In this case, in order to eliminate a Doomsday Guard, the Stratholm often had to pay the price of five or six warriors - the defenders paid far more than the attackers!
However, in such a situation, the soldiers of Stratholme did not take a step back.
In the sky, the black dragon has an absolute advantage, but the number is too small, so there are constantly doomsday guards breaking through the blockade and landing on the city wall.
On the city walls, the Stratholme resisted the advance of the Doomsday Guards, a situation that reminded Orgrim of the Battle of the Blackstone Tower.
For a long time, Orgrim would wonder why he lost to the Alliance, when orc warriors were stronger and more numerous.
But this time, after a different perspective, he finally understood.
Orcs value honor and desire honor to die on the battlefield, so they are fierce and fearless in battle.
Although humans have many problems, once they are guarding their most cherished affairs, their explosive power is no weaker than that of orcs.
It seems that in Azeroth, the orcs are not destined to defeat humanity completely—looking at Thrall, Orgrim made up his mind.
……………………
The fierce battle for the walls lasted almost a whole day.
By dusk, the walls of Stratholm at sunset had been dyed red, and countless Stratholme warriors fought on the walls until the last moment.
Led by Rivendell and Old Fordin, they fulfilled their promise - to fight without a whirlwind!
As the sky gradually darkened, both the attackers and defenders were exhausted.
Kazak was unable to advance under the siege of Old Fordin and Baron Rivendell, and the Doomsday Guards were unable to take advantage of the air superiority at great cost.
In desperation, Kazak could only force back Old Fording and Rivendell, and then beckoned the Doomsday Guard to retreat.
At the same time, the Meat Grinder and the Abyss Demon King once again began a massive plague bombardment and rain of fire to cover the retreat of the Doom Guards.
Once again, the High Elf mages climbed the walls and held up their spell shields.
But now that it's here, it's not so easy for the demon to leave.
As the Doomsday Guard left the city walls, the earth-shattering war drums suddenly sounded.
At the desperate call of Thrall, Drektar, and Logosh, the Earth Spirit laid out a slope under the walls of Stratholme.
Orgrim leads the charge with the Hammer of Doom!
Neither Arthas nor the Devil, no one thought of such a hand!
Originally, Stratholme's gate had been blocked, and everyone thought that the counterattack was nothing more than the mage's fireball and the archer's arrow rain, but they didn't expect that with the help of the shaman, the orcs directly launched a wave of counter-charge!
This wave of counter-charge made the demons and the natural disaster really can't react for a while, and the abyss demon kings who originally cast the rain of fire bear the brunt and directly face the orcs.
At the beginning, he was the leader of the Abyss Demon King, and the demon blood of the Abyss Lord Manolos caused the orcs to fall one after another, and now it can be said that the enemies are very red!
Accustomed to hunting mammoths and gorons, in the face of these big abyss demon kings, the orcs have said that this is exactly what they are good at!
The Frostwolf Orcs and their wolf companions began to weave through the battlefield one after another, cutting off the connection between the Abyss Demon Kings and making the entire formation of the demons unable to care for each other.
And Orgrim took the most elite part of the Blackstone Orcs and took the lead in killing the demons.
The Abyss Demon King's double-headed spear was heavy and sharp, but it was difficult to kill the heavily armored Blackstone Orcs in one blow, and every time they attacked, they would inevitably reveal flaws, which would be targeted by other Blackstone Orcs.
Then there was the Abyss Demon King's knife, and the Blackstone Orcs seriously injured one, and the other Blackstone Orcs fought back, and the Abyss Demon King was injured.
The Blackstone Orc's injury-for-injury style of play is undoubtedly fatal to the Abyss Demon King - the Abyss Demon King is not a miscellaneous soldier of the Burning Legion, and the soul energy required to summon every Abyss Demon King will make Arthas's flesh hurt.
And now, there are constantly abyss demon kings who have fallen into the siege tactics of the orcs!
In this case, someone is more anxious than Alsace.
The leader of the Abyss Demon King, the Abyss Lord Manolos, was already furious at this time.
In his thousands of years of fighting with the Burning Legion, Manolos has experienced only a handful of defeats - the most humiliating of them all, undoubtedly the one he lost to Agamagan in a heads-up battle 10,000 years ago.
And now that Azeroth is back in the world, Manolos himself has thoughts of revenge.
But I didn't expect that the elite warriors under my command would actually fall under the hands of these inconspicuous orcs!
Enraged, Manolos ignored Arthas's command and went to the front on his own.
Manolos' appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention, especially the orcs.
The eyes of countless blackstone orcs instantly turned red, and the blood in their bodies seemed to be boiling.
Many of the Blackstone Orc warriors fell to their knees, the pain from their bodies making it difficult for them to take up arms again - although Northrend's pilgrimage gave them the ability to appease the blood of demons, they still felt immense pain in the face of Manolos.
Seeing this scene, Orgrim immediately recognized the identity of the demon in front of him!
"Manolos!"
