Chapter 130: The Solid Wall Clears
No one could have imagined that the usual regent of Stormwind, Grand Duke Berval-Fortagen, would be annoyed and angry, and he would also use dirty words without a word. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Damn it!" Bolval hated to slap the saddle and made a gesture backwards, and the whole team immediately turned around on the spot, and the rear formation changed to the front formation, how to come and how to go back.
At the head of the fortress of Shushan Town, regardless of the military and civilians, they all laughed loudly and sarcastically "farewell", and the sound shook for 10 miles.
Bolval led his men to rush back to their camp in a rage, and went directly into the barracks, and this round of assault ended. Looking at the enemy camp that gradually fell silent, the defenders at the head of the fortress breathed a sigh of relief and immediately began to treat the wounded and collect the corpses.
In this battle, both sides suffered heavy losses, and the Arathi side held their positions with great difficulty at the cost of almost completely annihilating a main station legion. Fortunately, they finally managed to get reinforcements, and now the three-dimensional defense of the fortress has been opened, and it is difficult for the enemy to capture even if he has 100,000 troops.
However, at dusk, the Coalition army began to have problems again. Under the nervous gaze of the city, the alliance took a brief rest and recuperated, and then the whole army was once again united, but instead of organizing an attack, it began to cut down trees again.
The felled logs were carried out of the front camp like a stream, and the soldiers who threw off their armor began to drive piles against the camp gate, and the work was in full swing.
"What are they doing?" On the fortress at the southern end of the fortress, Rhona asked suspiciously, looking at the windowsill on her stomach.
On the other side of the window, Ishara shook her head and turned to the hall, which was now full of high-level officials from both sides for a military intelligence meeting.
"Old thing, come and see what they're doing." Isaraa shouted, and old Dawson "belched" vigorously, and then left the meeting fart and ran over.
Ishara called old Dawson because he was not only a good thief, but also a good carpenter. In fact, in Dawson's own opinion, his carpenter's skill was far superior to that of a thief.
This is not bragging, old Dawson lay by the window and squinted for only a moment, and then made a judgment: "Two pairs of wooden stakes, cross tenons, the enemy is going to build a wooden wall." ”
His words were confirmed, and in the middle of the night, the wooden walls in front of the enemy camp were already in shape. However, they did not stop there, and the wall continued to extend on both sides.
"Old thing, take a look again, why is their wall a little unpresentable?" Isara, who had been leaning against the window to observe, shouted again.
"Oh...... Here it comes! Old Dawson stood up and walked to the observation window like sleepwalking, and the generals laughed, really better than the third grandson.
Walking to the window and glancing, old Dawson coughed and said: "The enemy's city wall has been built in a reverse arc to enclose the fortress, but they are all stupid, this city wall is so close to us, both sides can't go out of the city to set up formations, and they have no chance to attack the city." ”
Isara breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, the siege battle was repaired by her own fortifications and could not attack the city, this alliance commander is really stupid.
Next, the two of them began to pass the "password" with their eyes, and Rona raised her head to look left and right inexplicably. At this moment, a person rushed over with the wind behind him, picked up Rona and grabbed the windowsill.
"What are you doing, Lady Woo?" Lorna was puzzled, Youyou has always been an elegant and quiet person, why is she so anxious now.
Youyou didn't answer, and continued to frown and look down, the skin on her face was now as delicate and smooth as clotted fat, and there were no flaws. Unconsciously, her appearance was as normal as an ordinary person, and she could no longer see the slightest physical characteristics of the undead.
It's weird, but no one cares about it, as if it were a matter of course.
"Something is wrong." Looking at it, Yu Yu's face sank, and he shook his head to himself.
Hearing his words, the generals immediately adjourned the meeting, and all gathered around.
Without waiting for everyone to ask, Yu Yu turned to Isara, "Commander of the Nightwind Legion, please help me scout the enemy camp and see the specific distribution of the enemy camp. ”
Ishara nodded, closed her eyes, and began to chant softly in Elven language. Ten seconds later, the phantage of an owl emerged from her celestial spirit cover, and with a "coo" chirp, it flew out of the window and swooped down towards the enemy camp.
The owl hovered over the league's camp for ten miles, and it took twenty minutes for Isara to open her eyes tiredly.
"The enemy's battalions are lined up along the main highway, distributed horizontally, and are easily recognizable." After a moment's recollection, Isara said, "From north to south, the garrisons were: the Gnome Chocobo Cavalry, the mixed unit of the Gnome Magi and the Mechanic, the Knights of the Light and the Chinese Battalion, the Ironforge Anvimar Goat Cavalry, the Iron Mountain Guard, the Miscellaneous District, and finally the Baggage Battalion. ”
"None?" After Isara's finished speaking, Yuyu immediately asked.
Isara shook her head blankly, "No, that's all." ”
Yu Humour nodded silently, and after pondering for a while, he glanced at the crowd and said, "Continue the meeting, the topic will change." ”
With that, she strode back to the conference table and sat down, while the others looked at each other blankly and returned to their seats.
After the participating generals were seated, Yu Yu immediately got straight to the point and said, "The enemy's main force, the 20,000 light cavalry of the Eastern Legion of Stormwind City, is gone. ”
Hearing this, the generals were in an uproar, and sure enough, when Ishara was scouting just now, there was no current No. 1 main force in the enemy camp. So, where did they go at the moment of the decisive battle?
Everyone fell silent, and everyone was thinking.
Leaning slightly, Dorian, the deputy head of the Fallen Star Knights, raised his head and knocked on the table to speak: "There is no complete resistance force in the north except for us, and with such a large regular army, there is no enemy to attack at all. Combined with the actions of the enemy outside the city, I believe that the enemy was unable to storm the basin, so he intended to use the strategy of clearing the wilderness with strong walls. ”
Old Barton couldn't help but nod his head, "That makes sense, keep talking." ”
Next, Dorian laid out his judgment one by one.
If the northern land of human beings is compared to an egg, the Arashi Basin happens to be in the position of egg yolk, and the landform here is extremely special, as if a giant thing fell from the sky to smash the earth out of a deep pit, and the exit is only Shushan Town.
For the cold north, such a landform can be described as unique, not only is it not cold in winter, but also the waterways in the basin are vertical and horizontal, and finally they all converge outside Shushan Town and are discharged. After the transformation, this waterway is just below the south fort, and it flows day and night.
It is neither cold nor short of water, making it the largest grain producing area and livestock area in the north, and it is completely self-sufficient in food supply.
However, no matter how developed agriculture and animal husbandry are, they can only protect themselves, and there are almost no minerals in the basin, which cannot support a protracted war. In addition, the population in the basin is too small to withstand long-term attrition.
Dorian said: "The enemy only needs to seal the exit of the basin, and then send a large army to sweep the whole territory and establish his rule, and the Arathi basin will become an island, weakening more and more, and will be self-defeating over time." ”
When these opinions were put out, the generals were in an uproar and began to talk loudly. If the tide of battle really develops like this, then the outcome predicted by Dorian will definitely appear!
Bang Bang Bang!
Youyou lowered her head and knocked on the table three times, and everyone gradually fell silent.
"The enemy did not build the camp of the Eastern Legion at all, which shows that they made preparations at the beginning, and the Eastern Legion should have left long ago." Yu Yu's tone was still calm, and he continued, "However, it's not like there's no resistance out there. ”
"Young Master!" Isara, who was leaning against the windowsill, woke up and exclaimed. (To be continued.) )
