Chapter 273: A Powerful Skeleton Army
So weak
Marshal Oslet, and so did the commander of the Undercity, they really didn't expect that the skeleton summoned by the lich of the Scourge's legion from the corpse was so weak.
The skeletons summoned by Leo from the corpse only had the strength of a low-level warrior, and they were fiercely attacked by the Alasso coalition army and the army of the Forsaken, so they were naturally vulnerable. This phenomenon confused many of the recruits in the Arathas coalition army, and the easy solution of those skeletons gave them a misunderstanding, these people were bold and morale-boosting, and the excited recruits rushed faster and harder, and the formation of the army began to scatter.
Morale was a good thing, but the ensuing battle quickly brought their morale to rock bottom.
After dealing with the skeletons that Leo summoned from the corpses, the Arathor coalition and the Forsaken army immediately confronted the army of skeleton warriors, and the two quickly realized that something was wrong before they could fight.
Seeing the enemy rushing towards him violently, the skeleton warrior made a mistake with both hands, and the two bone knives on his waist were pulled out violently, and in the sound of the knife wind, the bone knives quickly slashed towards the rushing enemy.
As soon as the so-called connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one.
As soon as the skeleton warrior drew his sword, the Arassol coalition soldiers who were rushing were startled, they didn't expect the opponent's strength to become so strong all of a sudden, and they directly crossed from the low rank to the high rank.
With the bonuses of skills such as Controlling Skeletons and Energy Aura, Leo's skeleton warriors have broken away from the category of mid-level fighters and rushed to the high level, although they only have the strength of the first high-level that is, level 30, but it is enough to deter opponents. Unless it is an elite legion, an ordinary army with a similar number is no match for the skeleton army at all.
The skeleton warrior struck, and many of the soldiers of the Arathas Coalition Army felt a sharp pain in their bodies as soon as they saw the flash of the sword, and then lost consciousness. With the current strength of the skeleton warriors, the recruits of the Arathas coalition army have no way to resist it, and in order to expand the strength of the prince Galen, many of the recruits are just ordinary farmers, that is, they are not war officers.
If they form a formation, with the help of veterans who have experienced the battle of Refuge Valley together, these recruits can still do something, but now they are on the attacking side, and it was too easy to kill those skeletons before, the recruits are a little dizzy for a while, they rush too fiercely, the military formation is scattered, how can they resist the skeleton warriors with the strength of high-level fighters without forming a military formation to resist the enemy with collective strength?
The skeleton warrior's bone knife swung over, and the heads rolled to the ground, and the headless corpses fell to the ground, and a stream of blood gushed out from the hollow neck cavity, dyeing the white miserable skeleton warrior red, a piercing bright red.
All the recruits who rushed to the front were decapitated.
The fate of their companions frightened the human soldiers who were about to rush forward, and no one wanted to turn into headless corpses, and the hesitant recruits stopped, and the group of skeleton warriors on the opposite side dripping with blood made their courage fade.
"Form a Formation and Advance"
At this time, the shouts of the officers sounded in time, and the recruits, who were panicking, suddenly found their backbone.
Yes, we can form an army formation, and it was with it that we were able to resist the army of the undead.
The recruits were right to try to regroup and restore the scattered formation, but if they wanted to succeed, they had to ask their enemy, the army of skeletons.
Seeing that the opponent was trying to form a formation to fight against him, Leo certainly wouldn't agree, he didn't want his skeleton army to be damaged too much.
Field Marshal Oslet found that the situation was very bad, and his soldiers were trying to assemble, but his enemies would not allow this to happen, and the powerful skeleton warriors began to attack with bone knives.
With the strength of the high-ranking warriors of the skeleton warriors, they easily broke into the army formation of the Alasso coalition, and the human soldiers' purpose of regrouping was destroyed.
The sound of the bone knife swinging kept ringing, and one after another the human soldiers were cut to the ground, and the screams of people before they died, and the wails of the wounded constantly echoed over the battlefield.
Compared to the cacophony on the side of the Alasso coalition, the battle between the army of the Forsaken in Undercity and the army of skeletons in Leo was much quieter.
Leo's army of skeletons couldn't speak, and the army of the Forsaken was a stuffy gourd when it came to war, and the two undead armies fought together, and there was nothing but the sound of blades crashing and shattering when their bodies were damaged. Compared to the Arasso coalition army, which has more recruits and ordinary people occupy a large proportion, the army of the Forsaken, which has the strength of a mid-level warrior at the very least, has been fighting with the opponent since then, except for the loss of the skeleton warriors at the beginning of contact.
As the skeleton warrior's bone knife wielded, the Forsaken soldiers' bodies were slashed in pieces, and the army of the Forsaken did not show weakness, and under their counterattack, the skeleton warriors were beaten into piles of broken bones.
In this direction of the battlefield, there was not a single shout, nor a scream, nor the painful wails of the wounded, but only two silent armies slashing fiercely with each other.
In the fierce battle, whether it is Leo's skeleton warriors or the army of the Forsaken in Undercity, the number of both sides is rapidly decreasing.
The army of the Undercity is really not built, their average level is obviously only in the mid-level fighters, but they can withstand the strength of the high-level fighters, although the casualty ratio has reached three to one, but it is very remarkable to be able to do this. When it comes to fighting alone, three mid-level fighters can't beat one high-level officer.
Standing on Pelicion's head, Leo silently calculated, it was not possible to fight like this, the damage rate of the skeleton warriors exceeded his expectations, he was far from expecting that the army of the Forsaken in the Undercity was so strong, and the combat power of this group of troops was obviously a few points stronger than what he had encountered before.
An army of 50,000 skeletons has suffered heavy casualties against you, so what about some other helpers?
Leo snapped his fingers, and ten thousand skeleton mages appeared from behind the skeleton warriors.
10,000 skeleton mages, what is this concept?
This is equivalent to a single mage army, and even the Stormwind Kingdom can't mobilize so many mages if it doesn't use all its strength to recruit them.
Compared to the high-level strength possessed by the skeleton warriors, the skeleton mages are much weaker, and their strength stops at the middle level but does not reach the high level, and the level is equivalent to about twenty-five levels.
But even that is still amazing.
As soon as the 10,000 Skeleton Mages appeared, they gave them a blow to the Alaskos and the Forsaken before they even noticed.
Three thousand fist-sized crimson fireballs, three thousand ice-blue ice arrows, three thousand bright white arcs, and a thousand green poison balls slashed at their heads and faces.
Unexpectedly, the opponent would have such a powerful long-range attack, and the Alasso and the Forsaken suffered a great loss, and they were being defeated by the attack of the skeleton warriors, and more than 3,000 people were killed in the attack.
The other party still has such a means
Marshal Oslet was shocked, looking at the previous scene, there were at least six or seven thousand skeleton mages under the lich in the sky.
With such a strong opponent, how can we win this battle?
Marshal Oslet's heart retreated even more firmly.
Damn, is the Scourge really planning a large-scale invasion?
The commander of the army of the Forsaken was also stunned by the scene when the skeleton mage struck, and the lineup was truly staggering compared to a mage legion.
Looking at Leo in the sky, the commander of the army of the Forsaken kept guessing who this lich was.
What kind of identity does this guy have in the Scourge Legion, and he can actually command such a powerful force
"Your Excellency, the current battle situation is very unfavorable for us, and my advice is to retreat."
Next to the commander of the army of the Forsaken, a necromancer spoke, and if Leo had noticed this guy, he would have realized that it was Yaquiz who had escaped from his hands. And by Yaquiz's side, the dark priest who had always fought alongside him was impressively beside him.
The undead commander groaned for a moment and agreed to Yaquis's suggestion: "Yaquis, our current strength is indeed not the opponent of this lich, and there are no reinforcements nearby, so retreat is inevitable. But can we afford to retreat? ”。
The Undead Commander had his concerns, and now that the army of the Forsaken and the army of skeletons were in the thick of the battle, it would not be easy to retreat, and with the lich's attitude, he would surely hunt down his own forsaken who followed Queen Sylvanas.
The word retreat is easier said than done.
"Your Excellency, Commander, isn't there still a human army?" Yaquis smiled gloomily. "You're talking about using those humans, that's a good idea. ”
The undead commander immediately gave a new order, and the army of the Forsaken began to adjust, and before they knew it, the center of their battle with the army of skeletons began to move in the direction where the Alasso coalition army was located.
Field Marshal Oslet was thinking of a way to get his troops out of the battle quickly, when he noticed that the army of the Forsaken seemed to be unable to stop the pressure on them, and was trying to move closer to his own troops.
Does the Forsaken want to join forces with us against this lich?
Oslet suddenly had an idea, and he decided to give the order to retreat as soon as the army of the Forsaken arrived, and let the undead give it to his queen.
The marshal of the Alasso coalition army smiled smugly, and with an idea in his mind, he waved at the herald and conveyed his order.
So, there is a tacit understanding, the Alasso coalition army in the Valley of Refuge and the army of the Forsaken in the Undercity, these two armies that had fought to the death before, leaned towards each other under the pressure of the skeleton army, and put on a posture of the two sides joining forces to resist the Scourge Legion.
Humans, come here, just let you living people die.
Undead, come here, and let you guys come to my palace.
The commanders of both armies were secretly sneering.
