…… Chapter 202: A Strange Situation (Part 2)

Old Tang stepped on his feet and kicked away a stitch hatred comparable to him, but his face became more and more gloomy.

Three days have passed since the Scourge Legion broke the gates of Silvermoon City.

With the arrival of reinforcements from the Spellbreakers, Battlemages, Firemark Assassins, and Arcane Guards, the situation at the gates calmed down again.

With Arcane Guards at the forefront of the gap, and spellbreakers and battle mages on their side, neither the Crypt Demons, Ghouls, Brainless Zombies, or Skeletons can break through the defenses and make their way into the city. Even the Stitching Abomination, which the Scourge is best at tearing through the defenses, didn't work as well as it should.

In the collision of powers, the Arcane Guardian was not able to bear the hatred of Roshan in front of him. Anyway, with metal against flesh and blood, it's not these iron lumps that are taller than the minotaur that suffer.

And the abomination of the invincible, vicious bloody flesh hook, this time also returned. The flesh hook flung onto the arcane guard's streamlined body, either bouncing off the arcane guard's smooth armor shell and slipping off, or the chain of the abomination body that was cut off in time by the spellbreaker on the side.

The two sides fought repeatedly at the city gate for a long time, but the Arcane Guards only damaged a dozen or so, most of which were destroyed by the Scourge Undead after running out of energy before they had time to remove and replace the energy gems. On the contrary, the Scourge Legion has stood so far that there are countless walking corpses, which have been smashed into pulp by these mechanical guards with a pair of iron fists.

It can be said that in this small area, the arcane guards of the High Elf Kingdom have made the Scourge Legion suffer......

And the crypt lord Anubarak, who asked Old Tang to be on guard, did not show up again until the minotaur warriors cleared the crypt demons and rejoined the sequence of guarding the city gate.

The Scourge Legion's general, the proud Crypt Lord, disappeared like a shrunken turtle for the next few days after being defeated by Don once. If it weren't for the deep holes in the city gate square and the small piece of thorny woodland that remained, Lao Tang would have wondered if the hearty ravages he had on this hero-level master before were his own unilateral obscenity......

But this is not the reason for Old Tang's doubts.

What really made Old Tang faintly uneasy was that in the past three days, the Cataclysmic Legion had not taken any other actions except for maintaining a steady stream of siege troops to put pressure on the coalition forces.

There were no large-scale raids, no frenzied offensives of large numbers of elite troops, and not even Arthas himself was put into battle and led the attack. Arthas, the death knight, the number one powerhouse of the Scourge Legion, only confronted the elven prince with a few moves in the air on the second day of the battle, and then retreated, leaving the old Tang Kael'thas and the two of them confused.

The appearance of the Cataclysmic Legion in the past few days is quite strange to Old Tang, and even makes Old Tang have an illusion, as if these walking corpses who have taken the initiative to launch a siege war are completely here to fight soy sauce and send them to death to receive a boxed lunch......

The battle for the defense of Silvermoon City entered a fierce but not dangerous stalemate for a while......

The situation of the battle was calm, but Old Tang's brows were getting tighter and tighter.

The Scourge Legion's offensive is not without ferocity, at least the surging tide of the walking dead has been rushing day and night, regardless of casualties, no matter how you look at it, it can be enough to evaluate the tide of offensives. But the simple sea of the undead is naturally very powerful against the troops of other races, but it is not enough to look at the minotaurs!

In the past three days, on the two battlefields of the city wall and the city gate, the number of walking corpses destroyed in the hands of the coalition soldiers has been tens of thousands, not to mention the scale. The casualties on the side of the coalition were negligible and almost negligible. A siege battle that was originally huge was stunned whether it was beaten into a fueling tactic by the Scourge Legion, or the kind of failure......

If it was only the High Elves who stood in the way of his army of the dead in Arthas, it made sense.

After all, using the day and night rampaging of the furious Sea of the Undead offensive consumes the body and energy of the High Elves, and bullying the weak High Elves with the tireless walking dead is also a common routine of the High Elves Legion, at least it is an effective tactic.

But there are tens of thousands of minotaur warriors in the coalition army!

The Minotaurs' natural talent for endurance is enough to give the Shuharu warriors a super endurance in battle. It is impossible to succeed in expecting to use the trick of exhausting the body to drag down the Minotaur troops.

The amount of cannon fodder that is simply piled up is no different from the delivery of food in the eyes of Old Tang. It can be said that the coalition forces will be able to eat as much as they send, and Old Don doesn't believe that Arthas will not know this.

Since the beginning of the battle, Arthas's wonderful performances and vicious methods have made Old Tang deeply understand the military qualities of the Death Knight.

Today's old Tang does not dare to despise and relax his vigilance against the former Prince Lordaeron. Old Tang would not have thought that on the premise of knowing that there were a large number of Minotaur troops in Silvermoon City, he would make such an obvious strategic mistake and formulate such a clumsy plan as a child's play to add fuel to the tactics.

But such an "unreasonable and unscientific" situation is just being staged in front of Lao Tang's eyes. Therefore, such a strange situation did not make Old Tang feel relaxed, but made him secretly increase his vigilance...... Another wave of plague barrels thrown into the city hit, interrupting Old Tang's thoughts and worries.

Several super-level plague barrels flew almost against the towering walls, flew past the Shepherd's Gate, and smashed into the domes of nearby buildings. The foul-smelling dark green plague venom splattered in all directions, and the corrosive plague venom instantly burned through several holes in the masonry dome, sending a puff of green smoke rising from the building.

The vast majority of the plague barrels that were thrown were intercepted by both the Battle Mages and the Magic Towers in Silvermoon City, or exploded in mid-air by the Battle Mages, or evaporated by the arcane beams shot from the Magic Spires......

In the three days since the magic array at the city gate failed, this area that has lost its magic barrier has become a key area for the Plague Catapults of the Scourge Legion, and almost all the plague vehicles that have not yet been destroyed regard this as a breakthrough. Plague barrel fire-gathering strikes like this have appeared hundreds of times!

Even the broken walls and the ground that had lost its magical protection had been turned into potholes and bumps under the "baptism" of the plague putrefaction. As far as the eye can see, the building has long since lost its former glory and glamour, and is full of mottled and ugly marks.

And the soldiers of the coalition army stationed at the city gate have also developed from the beginning of the hurry, to the current habitual and indifferent ignorance, it can only be said that the fierce battle is really a very tempering situation.

The burning tomahawk slashed through a full circle, and the old Tang who entered the gap in the city gate was another whirlwind slash, and in an instant, the walking dead around him were sent to hell, and then the whole person jumped, and the old Tang had jumped back behind the steel barrier built by the soldiers of the First Wing.

And in the area where Old Tang was just now, several magical rays of light appeared in an instant. The arcane brilliance of these magical spires is dazzling and mesmerizing...... It's also hugely lethal!

The area covered by the arcane beam was cleared in an instant.

Whether it's a big guy like the Abomination, or an undead creature like the Crypt Demon with a solid chitinous carapace and good defense, anyone hit by this beam will almost invariably be wiped out! In the past three days, the magic spire that has been opened to supply enough energy can be regarded as a great display of its might, destroying a large number of large numbers of walking corpses, which really relieves a lot of pressure on the defenders.

However, the magic spire consumes a lot of energy, and there are only a few of them at the city gate that can get enough energy supply......

The blow of the magic beam caused a void in the open area of the gate, but within seconds it was filled with the roaring undead of the Scourge. The Magic Spire also had to enter a short cooldown period after a salvo, and the iron wall built by the soldiers of the First Wing was once again facing the impact of the Scourge Legion.

Fortunately, the heavily armed Minotaur warriors had no difficulty in dealing with such a fight.

The cannon fodder of the Cataclysm Legion is like an endless end, and in the face of these walking corpses that seem to be inexhaustible and inexhaustible, Old Tang also reluctantly adopted the strategy of changing guards.

The soldiers of the first wing were in a team of thousands, and they were divided into five teams by Lao Tang. Five teams of minotaur warriors and more than two hundred arcane guards alternately topped the top for three days, blocking the gap in the walls of Silvermoon City, but there was no danger.

And the benefits of such a large rotation are also obvious, the already abundant Minotaur soldiers are not in a state of exhaustion under the rotation, and they almost always maintain their peak combat strength; Arcane Guardians also get plenty of time to relieve metal fatigue and reduce burn.

The loss of the Scourge Legion's strength is not small, but the progress of the offensive is close to nothing, and the attack and defense at the city gate are going on in such a strange but undisturbed manner, but the uneasiness in the heart of Old Tang is getting heavier and heavier.

But for a while, there was a lack of sufficient intelligence, which made Old Tang unable to come up with a clear line of thought, and he couldn't think of what kind of conspiracy was hidden under the strange offensive of the natural disaster. This passivity makes Tang, who is accustomed to controlling the overall situation, quite uncomfortable and unhappy.

However, while Old Tang was still struggling with the Scourge Legion's meaningless refueling tactics, Old Tang's side flickered with the unique arcane aura of the portal.

And in the next second, Prince Kael'thas's handsome face appeared in front of Old Tang's eyes.
