Chapter 484: Hector's Explanation
Claudia received a letter from Sauron, knowing that Walker had left the camp against the Scourge Legion, and had a headache, at the critical moment of the decisive battle with the Scourge Legion, the king suddenly left, not only the impact on the entire battle situation, but also made Walker's reputation plummet, as a king, did not think about the interests of the country, commanded the whole army, and suddenly left in the middle of the war, what kind of gossip would people say, a coward who escaped from the battle, or a coward who was greedy for life and afraid of death?
Claudia was worried when Devil came over and said, "Maybe it's wrong for me to do this, but I can't watch my sister die like this, I'm sorry, Claudia, I may not be a good princess, but I want to be a good sister." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Claudia turned her head away, not wanting to talk to Devile, Claudia is a decent royal princess, the education and knowledge she has received since she was a child is definitely not comparable to Devile, the importance of this war has exceeded everyone's imagination, more than ninety percent of the Arassol army in Lordaeron is on the front line, if the battle is defeated, the strength of the Scourge Legion will definitely increase greatly, and the entire Arrathor will be in danger of the kingdom.
In Devier's cognition, his younger brother has his own decision, and he has the right to know about his sister's affairs, Devile doesn't think she did anything wrong, thought about it for a while, and left.
After Devil left, Claudia thought for a long time, and finally ordered, mobilized the remaining royal guards, and rushed to the front line in person, the king was not there, the queen was on top, this battle was not allowed to be defeated, defeated, let herself, the queen of Lordaeron, the queen of Araso, die in battle.
Karimdo, in the barren land, inside the military tent of Alasuo, Bai Yi walked back and forth anxiously, Qin Er and Kane's eyes were dazzled, Kane opened his mouth and said, "Isn't it still easy on the other side?" It would be nice to have some grace time. β
Bai Yi shook his head and said: "It's been forgiven many times, Aganos is already impatient, damn orcs, where did they get the ships, they actually have their own fleet, our two groups of messengers were killed by them, causing the time for the news to reach the eastern continent to be delayed so much, if it weren't for the reply I received this time, I'm not sure if our news Riptide Fort has received it." β
Qin Eryi slapped the table and shouted: "It's all to blame on those orcs, who attacked us three or four times, this time, we must not be soft, it's a big deal, let's have a big battle." β
Kane persuaded: "This attack is not necessarily done by the orcs, before there is evidence, we can't wronged them, let's wait, if it really comes time, King Walker doesn't arrive in time, we will do our best to attack the boar people." β
Bai Yi's heart is very confused, even if the appointment of the military force that will let him command the entire Kalimdor, it can't stop the death of Princess Ress, how much the Lord cares about Princess Ress, anyone with eyes can see that he, a general before and after the saddle, will definitely die under the Lord's aftermath.
Bai Yi has already dispatched the three hundred elite stalkers in the army, if it is really time, let them lurk in first, protect the safety of Princess Ress, and then attack with all their might, do their best to save Princess Ress.
Walker's new warship was fast, reaching Kalimdor in a few days, and when he saw land, Walker was overjoyed, and if he continued at this speed, he might be able to return and participate in the war to destroy the Scourge Legion.
A loud "boom" sounded not far from Walker's ship. Walker was startled, looked around, and finally saw the source of the attack.
An explosion of "boom boom" rang out all around, and on the opposite side was a whole fleet, the flag on which was clearly orc
"Horde warships, damn it." Walker roared angrily, this is not yet the official war, the orcs are attacking themselves so blatantly.
It's not Walker's style to be beaten passively, since the orcs are going to fight, it's better to play with them for so long. Walker ordered the battleships to counterattack with all their might, and the air force rose into the air to begin the attack.
With Walker's order, thirty of Arath's warships quickly launched a counterattack.
"Get the cannon out! Fast! Fast! The busy sailors pushed open the baffles of the ship's guns, and the muzzles on both sides exposed the front ends of the guns, and the artillery division held a ruler in his hand and quickly calculated the distance of the ship from a distance. The artillery division reported the data, and the gunners around him began to adjust their gun positions, reload, holding torches in their hands, and looking at the commander with nervous eyes.
The Commander nervously roared, "Steady!" Steady".
The Commander's eyes were fixed on the approaching orc battleship, and the Commander's arms were raised in the air. The whole cabin was quiet and terrible, the atmosphere was oppressive and tense, and the heavy panting of the gunners could be heard, this was the first battle of the new navy of AraΓ§o, whether it was famous all over the world, or whether it was buried in the belly of the fish, it depended on this battle.
Seeing that everyone was in place, the commander waved his arms heavily and shouted, "Ignition." β
The gunner's torch ignited the powder line, the sound of sparks tugged at everyone's nerves, the gunner stood on both sides with his ears covered, and everyone on the deck nervously approached a fixed point, "Boom! Several deafening loud noises resounded across the sea, and the hull of the ship shook violently up and down, as if it had been hit by an invisible object, and it actually slid left and right on the surface of the water for several meters.
A large amount of pungent smoke came out of the muzzle of the cannon, which was blown to both sides by the sea breeze, and the pungent smell of sulfur choked people, and the cannonballs with a piercing whistling sound were fired at the five orc warships that rushed to the front. Some landed on the sides of the orc battleship, rolling up waves several meters high, and some hit the orc battleship.
The flank deck of the orc battleship is under the explosion. A large hole was opened, and several black clouds of smoke quickly rose. Sputtered crude oil burned up on the bottom deck, in thick smoke. The sea rushed through the breach, and the hull of the ship tilted rapidly. The bow of the ship is being pulled and lowered by an invisible beast! I kept seeing orcs and goblins jumping down from the orc battleship, countless orcs crowded around the bow, densely crowded together, the stern was cocked by the sinking bow, and the orcs and goblins fell into the water like dumplings.
Walker applauded loudly, and this round of salvo directly sank three orc warships, greatly boosting the morale of the Alatho Navy. Walker roared loudly: "Narz, well done, I will officially appoint you as the commander of the Second Fleet of Arathas when I turn around, and give me a damn beating of these orcs, so that they know that Alathso's navy is invincible." β
"Roar", the admirals of Arathso let out an excited roar, and the sailors worked harder, and the battleship opened fire at full power, storming the orc battleship.
Walker looked at the orc battleship on the opposite side and lowered several small boats, this kind of small boat can only carry power people, and their number is not large, indicating that most of the orcs on the sea surface cannot be effectively saved. Walker will not be soft-hearted, he will definitely not spare this group of orcs who dare to attack him, and the same is true for goblins, since he dares to help the orcs deal with the kingdom of Alaso, he must have the courage to bear his own anger.
Arathso's air force planes had already begun to attack the orc battleship group, each plane planting two large bombs and several grenades, directly knocking the orc battleship group into black smoke.
Since the orcs got the help of the goblins and have their own fleet, they have not encountered an opponent in this sea area, but they didn't expect to kick the iron plate this time. The loss of the three orc warships was like a loud slap in the face of the orc navy, and what was even more terrifying was that the other orc warships were also damaged of varying severity, and the orc admiral Jarukols roared frantically: "Order all the warships to surround them!" I'm going to throw them all into the sea to feed the sharks! Order the troops, pay attention to air defense. β
A goblin named Fizka screamed, "Are you crazy? Retreat immediately, you idiot, don't you see the power of the gunfire of the battleship on the other side? If you let all of my warships fall here, I'll deprive you orcs of the help of goblins altogether. β
The loss of three warships had already made Fizka feel so distressed that he could not help it, and when he heard that Jarukols was still going to war, he immediately stopped his actions.
Jarukolls clenched his fists and gritted his teeth to look at his fleet, just now, two more battleships were sunk, countless orcs fell into the water, and the Araso Air Force flying around in the sky caused the entire fleet to suffer huge losses. As far as Jarukols is concerned, he is reluctant to retreat, and it is a very shameful thing to run away after being beaten, but seeing that the artillery fire on the opposite side is indeed much stronger than his own fleet, and there are air strikes, his own fleet has been damaged more and more, in case it is really all reimbursed here, how can he explain to Chief Sal.
Fizka saw that Jarukoles was still flustered, and screamed frantically, "Retreat, everyone retreat." β
Fizka directly crossed Jarukols and gave an order, the goblins moved, but Jarukols didn't speak, the orcs would not move, Jarukols stared at Alasuo's battleship, and the orcs on one side roared angrily: "General, the orcs only died in battle, there were no deserters, let us fight with them." β
Fizka jumped to her feet and shouted, "Stupid fellow, are you going to kill everyone? β
Jarukors suddenly roared, "Retreat." β
Although it is not honorable to retreat, but in order to keep this orc fleet, Jarukols has to make such a choice, it is an encounter, the opposite side is stronger than himself, and continuing to fight can only increase losses, the orc navy is being assembled, and every warship is precious and cannot be consumed here in vain.
The orc fleet actually began to turn around and retreat, Walker laughed instantly, naval warfare is not better than land warfare, how can you turn around at will, Walker thought for a while, and thought that the commander of the orc fleet may be a novice in naval warfare, and he is still using the style of landing warfare, fight if he can fight, and run if he can't fight, and those goblins he sees, although they are familiar with naval warfare, but their nature has determined that they are not a real naval soldier, they only pay attention to their interests, their money, and have no determination to fight to the death.
Such a sea battle, either not fighting, or fighting, or giving everything he has, a desperate Armageddon, if you don't die, or I live, retreat or something, Walker never thought about it.
Walker ordered all fleets, keep their distance, pursue steadily, and sink as many orc ships as possible.
The orc fleet was still turning around, and four ships were sunk by Arasuo's fleet, Fizka panicked and found the white flag, so that the goblins began to wave the white flag, demanding a truce, for the goblins, glory is not worth anything.
Jarukoles roared angrily, "Fizika, you dare to surrender. β
Fizca's goblins roared, "As long as I can keep my fleet, I can do whatever I want, and I don't really surrender, it's a tactic, you know?" Let Araso's fleet cease fire first. Do you want my fleet to sink to the bottom of the sea under the fire of Aratho? β
Although Jarukols did not like the goblin's approach, he was powerless to refute it, the losses of the fleet were still expanding, and the orcs were the ones who suffered the most casualties, which he last wanted to see.
Fizka had a wonderful idea, but the truth was cruel, Walker had no intention of stopping the attack, and when Narz came to report, Walker only said: "Kill them all, not a single one will be left." β
The attack of the Arasso fleet continued, and the orc fleet suffered very heavy losses, Fizka saw that his method was useless, and yelled in distress: "Order the five battleships in the front row to stay behind, and the other fleets to retreat with all their might." β
Jarukols looked at the last five warships with blood-red eyes, and the anger in his heart was about to drive him crazy, if he didn't remember the Great Chief, Jarukols would probably tear Fizka alive by now. It was he who made him retreat, and this naval battle directly caused his fleet to lose more than half of it, and he was also wounded, and Jarukoles was extremely remorseful in his heart.
Walker watched as the last five ships of the orc fleet stopped retreating, and the orc warships that were originally facing away from their own fleet began to move sideways, blocking the way of the Araso fleet, and the orcs on it were roaring, shouting and fighting, and the goblins were busy putting down the boats to escape, and said mockingly: "Short tail survival?" β
Walker did not continue the pursuit, sinking all the orc ships left behind. One is to prevent the orcs from supporting, God knows how many warships the orcs still have, and the other is to save time, and they still have business to do.
Walker was in a very good mood, and was swept away by his sister's irritability, at least this time he came to Kalimdor, there was still a reward, goblin, very good, wait, I will wait for you to come and beg for mercy.
Walker glanced at the orcs and goblins in the sea, and even a few trolls, and with a wave of his hand, killed them all.
The sailors on the battleship AraΓ§o took out their muskets and began to shoot "popping". The air force also took out the musket and began to play a hunting game, the artillery wantonly attacked the cluster orcs on the sea or disembarked, such a slaughter was cruel, but Walker just wanted to make this cruel slaughter, wake up the orcs, wake up Thrall, and no longer restrain his subordinates, the entire orc race will face such a massacre.
Walker finally in the barren land of Arathas Harbor, after landing, Walker ordered the construction of an air base, and began to use artillery to defend here, the port is very important, Walker received a report from the commander of the port, the orc navy has been very rampant recently, many times attacked our Alathor fleet, especially the transport ships, Walker immediately appointed Narz as the commander of the second fleet of Arathso, commanding thirty new warships and more than fifty old warships in the port, guarding this sea area, if the orcs dare to attack again, they will be beaten hard. Walker also left behind a group of engineers to build a simple arsenal and shipyard here to maintain and supply ammunition.
Walker, with five thousand royal guards, marched towards Bai Yi's camp. Along the way, Walker saw a large number of centaur corpses, boar man corpses, and even orc corpses, although these corpses made Walker's inventory more abundant, but Walker always had a bad premonition in his heart. The orcs have invaded the Barrens, have they already arrived here? What is the extent of the battle between the centaurs and the boar people, Walker is eager to know this information, and sped up the march, the strength of the five thousand Araso royal guards, Walker is still very relieved, if that force doesn't want to live, let's try Alatho's sword.
Walker hurried up, and finally arrived at Bai Yi's camp seven days ahead of the agreed time, Bai Yi and the others looked at Walker in shock, after Walker explained, he was relieved, Walker asked Bai Yi about the specific situation, and the reply was:
Since the news of your death came out, the orcs violated the agreement and sent troops to the barren land without authorization, they captured Durontal, and killed all the boar people, or killed or drove them to the barren land, and sent troops to seize the oasis of the boar people, the boar people had no way out, and began to migrate to the south in large numbers, Her Royal Highness the princess was taken to the eastern continent by the leader of the Praetorian Legion Duo Weiyan more than half a year ago, but he did not expect to be attacked by the orcs, and somehow appeared on the periphery of the Thunder Cliff, and the minotaur placed Princess Rhess in the Thunder Cliff, Because the exit of Stonetalon Mountain has been completely mastered by the orcs, and we are not allowed to go out at all, so I opened a passage connecting Thunder Cliff and Stonetalon Mountain, which is the Stoneclaw Trail, and welcomed back Princess Ress, two months ago, in order to let Princess Ress return to the Eastern Continent, I specially dispatched 50,000 elite troops to escort Princess Ress away with the Praetorian Guard, but I didn't expect that I was ambushed again, and finally it was a message sent by Aganos, the leader of the boar people, saying that Princess Ress was where she was, and her subordinates had confirmed it, It was Princess Rees, and Aganos had asked you to go in person in order to get Princess Rees back. We have negotiated many times, but the boar people have never let go, and you must go in person, so we sent a letter to the Eastern Continent, but unfortunately, the first two letters were intercepted by the orcs, if it weren't for the reply from Riptide Castle this time, we would have to send a fourth letter. Now the boar people are gathering in a place called Razor Heights, not far ahead, and we have brought most of the Arasso army, and there are still half a million troops to fight.
Walker pondered for a moment, Ress was fine now, and said to Kane, "Thank you for your help, Chief Kane, Arasuo owes you a favor. β
Kane modestly said, "You're welcome, we're allies, and that's what we should do." β
Walker said to Shiraichi, "Are the boar people fighting the centaurs again?" β
Bai Yi said: "Yes, when the boar people migrated south, the centaurs plundered them, and as soon as the boar people gained a foothold, they fought a full-scale war with the centaurs, and the orcs also joined in. β
Walker smiled and said, "Okay, just fight." β
The war revolves around interests, what the boar people desperately want now is living space, with the pressure of centaurs and orcs, their lives must be difficult, I guess they want to rely on my strength, suppress centaurs and orcs, and gain benefits.
After knowing the situation of the boar people, Walker was much more relieved, the boar people still need their own place, and they will not be disadvantageous to their sister, the rest is the orcs, the orcs are really getting more and more disagreeable, it seems that the short-term victory has made the young Sal dizzy, it is time to knock and knock him.
Walker said to Bai Yi, "You immediately send a messenger, Yosar came here for a meeting, and said that for the sake of the survival of the orcs, I hope he can come." β
Bai Yi received the order, Walker led five thousand royal guards, accompanied by Bai Yi and Kane's army, to Razor Heights, the boar man obviously received the news, and was on guard, Walker roared loudly: "King Araso, Walker, come to the appointment, Aganos, come out and see." β
There was a commotion among the boar men, and after a while Aganos came out, saw Walker, and yelled, "You are not Walker, Walker is not what you are." β
Walker repeated what he had said when he had made an alliance with Aganos, and explained why he had become the way he looked, and Aganos was relieved, and the two set up the wine and meat in the middle and began to talk.
Walker's first sentence was: "Aganos, since I'm here, shouldn't I let my sister go, we are allies, you are holding my sister, this is really a bit unusual." β
Aganus smiled and said: "It's good to say, it's good to say, your sister came to me as a guest, I think I should be hospitable, the centaurs have been making a lot of noise recently, and our boar people are having a hard time, I hope that Araso's army can help me share some of the pressure, I don't know what King Walker thinks." β
Walker was displeased, and after learning about the boarman's situation, Walker roughly guessed Aganos's intentions, although it was also beneficial for him to eliminate the centaurs, but in such a threatening way, Walker was very uncomfortable, and even more uncomfortable was to threaten himself with his sister.
Walker said in his heart: "Aganos, the most wrong thing you have done in your life is to threaten me with my sister, today I can compromise and help you exterminate the centaur tribe, and tomorrow, I can take revenge and destroy your entire boar tribe." β
Walker was ruthless in his heart, but said on the surface: "Aganos, we are allies, of course I will agree to such a request, let me meet my sister, I haven't seen him for a long time, I miss him very much." β
Aganus said, "Don't worry, after the centaur tribe is destroyed, we will naturally send Princess Ress." β
