Chapter 496: The Second Battle of Shattrath (5)
Chapter 496: The Second Battle of Shattrath (5)
What is the power of the most representative mass destruction weapons and arcane bombs of Arcane Technology in Silvermoon City?
The fate of Kenriwa Village is the best answer! The village of Dalaran, famous for its magic, is now only in ruins.
After Xie Feng tried the knife of the Thorn Path, he finally felt at ease that it was a powerful hole card!
Most of the Blood Jīng Spirit Army were rookies who had not experienced a few decent battles, except for a few of Xie Feng's descendants and the others, who had killed some remnants of natural disasters, and commanded them to attack the fortified city defended by the Alliance, which was no different from looking for death
As for the other two, the orcs in a state of rage and the ogres who have no heart and lungs and only care about their stomachs, they can't be counted on.
Therefore, if you want to really break through the defense line and enter Shattrath, you still need to use some powerful means, such as bombing!
The Blood Jīng Spirit Technician, the Void Young Dragon, who was directly transferred by Passaren from the energy ship, and the Void Baby Dragon that had been trained by the Black Dragon Princess Onexia, plus the special medium-sized Arcane Bomb, the Blood Jīng Spirit Arcane Demoman Legion was formed in the Outlands in advance.
Later, the Shattered Sun Demolition Division rode a dragon eagle to bombard Brutarus, but unfortunately the fat man had already died in Silishus.
Now the demolition division, led by Temugors, is targeting the dense garrison on the walls of Shattrath
It turns out that the violent people who can treat the arcane bomb as nothing like the fat man and shout to find a few more partners to bomb themselves are a minority after all, at least the alliance army does not have this ability, and in an instant, the screams resounded in the sky!
To make matters worse, the defending coalition forces were all huddled together and stretched across the walls like a torrent of steel. In order to prevent the rampaging orcs from breaking through a hole in the defense line and causing the entire army to collapse
In fact, the human soldiers wrapped in tin cans can almost ignore the archery skills that the jīng spirit rangers are proud of, and the mage troops certainly don't dare to get too far ahead, so they don't have the slightest psychological burden on this rigid formation.
And so tragedy happened! Hundreds of arcane bombs rained down, as long as they were within a radius of three meters from the bomb landing point, it was almost impossible to escape, and the paladins with almost no strength were useless even if they opened the holy shield technique!
Stump limbs, broken arms, large tuǐ, flying everywhere, blood and smoke fill the field of vision, which can definitely be called miserable
The remaining soldiers stood in place at a loss, panicked or screaming, but there was no aimless rout of the rout.
The name of Baizhan jīng Rui is not called in vain, and years of experience tell them that there is only one way to die if they collapse! Even if they didn't die at the hands of the enemy, the law enforcement team and the general's personal guards standing behind them would not let them go
The best option is to keep order, avoid danger first, protect yourself as much as possible, and wait for support or the next order.
But unfortunately, now they don't know how to hide, the blow from the sky, they can't even find a bunker on the city wall, and the generals are obviously stunned, and they can't give orders for a while.
Fall back? The orcs and blood jīng spirits who were eyeing each other outside were not here to see the show, and they would definitely take advantage of the gap to capture the city wall.
Just after the start of the war, and before even the actual battle with the other side, the outer walls were lost? Do you want morale?
Before the Alliance and the Shatar Guards could figure out what to do, the Void Dragon Legion, which had just whistled by, turned around in the air and pounced again amid the piercing shouts of Temugors
"Marshal, please give the order!" The Stormwind Commander was already sweating profusely and urging Warren repeatedly.
Originally in the Ninth Legion, coupled with his outstanding performance in the Battle of Angela, valued by the old Marshal Windthor and Duke Berval, Warren has officially taken over the position of deputy commander of the Ninth Legion, and is also the commander of the current group of Alliance forces.
Young people with insufficient qualifications are naturally difficult to get recognition, but with the death order of Duke Berval, no one has said anything for the time being. But when the catastrophe befell him, everyone suddenly discovered that he was the only commander on the scene who remained calm
"Keep waiting! Leave the status quo for now, and don't send any reinforcements! The face was as deep as ink, and Warren ordered in a deep voice.
The generals suddenly turned into sè, glaring at Warren in anger, or frowning and thinking about it, and fell silent for a while.
"Summon, convey the order to General Durin, let him maintain the status quo and get through!" Warren gave another crazy order.
Naturally, the herald did not say anything, and soon appeared on the eastern wall, relaying his words to Durin as they were.
The Delaney garrison also changed when he heard this, but the lesson of the last time obviously changed him a lot, and he didn't go out on the spot, turned his face, just hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to believe this young man whom Bolval valued very much
However, it is obviously impossible to make him completely inactive: "Let the astrologers and Aldo priests withdraw to the Holy Light Square!" ”
He will definitely not làng the two main trump cards, but the remaining Shatar guards can only continue to wait for the choice of death.
In this strange atmosphere, Temugors' Void Dragon Legion swept back and forth through the air three times, dropping thousands of arcane bombs into the city of Shattrath, killing at least three thousand defenders and wounding countless others
But with such a big victory, Xie Feng didn't have the slightest joy on his face, and let out a sigh: "It's trouble~"
Yolin was still looking at the scene of the enemy's annihilation in a frantic manner, and when he heard Xie Feng sigh lightly, he was stunned for a moment, without frowning slightly, and then said: "How much have you prepared for that kind of arcane bomb?" Isn't it already"
"Every time I encounter such a difficult guy, it's still a natural disaster and its pulling worm people are cute~" Xie Feng sighed and said indifferently: "Time is pressing, only 1,500 bombs are equipped, this is the last round of bombing ready to attack!" ”
Compared to the commanders of the Scourge who only knew about the tricks and tactics of the Divine Scourge, Xie Feng hated the generals of the alliance very much, because there was never a shortage of military geniuses among them, or veterans who had been rolling on the battlefield all their lives.
If you are a little unlucky enough to run into any of them, the enemy will instantly become a huge bone to gnaw
When the fourth round of bombardment was over, Temugels had to withdraw from the battlefield, although he was still a little unwilling. And at the moment when the bombing was completed, two majestic slogans sounded at the same time, and the blood jīng spirit and orcs attacked almost at the same time!
“lok’tar、ogr! For the Horde! "For the glory of Sindore! Charge! ”
In the city, in front of the Holy Light Square, Warren, who heard the slogan, was shocked, and immediately ordered: "Order, seize the city wall!" ”
When the first orcs and blood warriors rushed up, and there were still some remnants of the Alliance defenders on the city walls who resisted to the death, although they couldn't afford to make a big difference, they still organized their footsteps slightly, and then the Alliance reserves set up a second line
At the cost of nearly 5,000 people, the outer wall was not breached after all, and the blood spirits and orc warriors were still stopped.
What worries Xie Feng even more is that the scene he least wants to see is staged after all: there is no huā to speak of, siege warfare!
In this duel, which pays more attention to the quality of the army, the disadvantages of the blood jīng spirits and the orcs are suddenly highlighted. There are too many blood jīng spirit recruits, and they are basically all blood knights of Xie Feng's lineage to support the scene, and the rampaging orcs and humans are more than coordinated in formation?
If these orcs were under the command of Nazgrell or Krakuk, the situation might have been better, but the seizure of power by the three Garrosh had completely broken up the army, and it was completely impossible to enforce the order in a short period of time.
Originally, the victory was in hand, but it suddenly turned into a stalemate, and with the tenacity of the human regular army and the Shatar Paladin, this battle can be regarded as a fight. Xie Feng could only hope that the orcs could make a breakthrough now, otherwise he could only do it
The only consolation is that the enemy has been weakened a lot, and they have finally climbed the walls, haven't they?
Rommel, who had just come out of the Thorny Path in the northern mountains, listened to the earth-shattering shouts in the northwest, and a pleasant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's finally time to fight, Warren and Alex, it's up to you who is more powerful!" ”
As he spoke, he handed the military report that the scout had just handed over to Prince Garin: "Don't read it, it must be urging us~"
"The current Shattrath has been turned into a large winch machine by this guy Alex, and I will only go when my brain is in water!"
Garin was obviously in a good mood, threw away the military newspaper casually, and asked with a smile: "Which of them do you think will win?" ”
"Warren is tenacious, dòng, and extremely adaptable, and it is not so easy to defeat~" A certain fox stroked the stubble on his chin, and said evilly: "Alex is strong in layout, once he makes a move, he will rarely leave room for the enemy to turn the tables!" ”
"Will they lose both? Have to stop? Garin's tone was a hint of lightness, obviously he just wanted this ending: "I really didn't expect that Alex actually encouraged the orcs to mutiny, but unfortunately, he still inevitably retreated."
Rommel turned around, spread his hands very dryly, and said with a wicked smile: "Retreat? Did he retreat? How can it be so simple?! ”
In Garin's stunned gaze, he continued: "In this battle, both of them are destined to be losers. ”
"Warren has no choice, Alex is helpless, he doesn't have much time to continue"
Garin smiled and shook his head, "Alex is right, you are a fox, especially when you squint your eyes~"
While laughing, a scout suddenly ran up to Rommel: "Captain, the Falcon Sentry has sent information that more than a dozen dragon eagle knights have flown out, and from their direction, it is inferred that the target is Cracked Rock Mountain, or Aurelia Fortress!" ”
The fox's eyes tightened, and the arc of the corners of his mouth became more obvious: "Alex's usual style, he always turns over the hole cards one by one at the moment of attack, and discards the opponent's hole cards by the way"
Hearing this, Garin's heart moved, and he frowned: "Do you think the target of these Dragon Eagle Knights will be the Aurelia Fortress?" ”
"There is no doubt about it! Just like he had done in Hinterland, there was no reason for him to abandon Aurelia's Ranger. ”
Rommel explained, while taking out a note that had been prepared a long time ago, and stuffed it to a griffin knight who had been waiting for a long time: "Use your speed to give it to General Arator of the Aurelia Fortress, remember, give it to him with your own hands!" ”
The griffin knight soared into the air and disappeared into the vast forest sea.
The two of them took 15,000 'reinforcements' and marched leisurely towards Shattrath along the foot of the northern mountain
"Get as close to the mountains as possible, and don't block the path of the Demon Legion!" Rommel shouted lazily.
Garin really couldn't resist the urge to roll his eyes, and was about to say something, when the adjutant suddenly leaned into his ear and said something, his face suddenly became strange and slightly frustrated, and he sighed: "You have won again Kargas led 20,000 evil orcs and is besieging the Fort of Honor!" ”
"Haha, don't forget to promise me the Draenei NV servant~" Rommel had already expected it, without the slightest surprise, shrugged his shoulders and said: "People who are good at layout and have a view of the overall situation are definitely far beyond ordinary people." Alex will not let go of any target that could become a pawn, while weakening or even capturing the opponent's pawn as much as possible. The Evil Orcs and the Fort of Honor are not immune! ”
Garin was completely convinced, and there was no frustration or unwillingness to be pressed down by his subordinates at all, and he did not change his mind at all. just looked at the north with worried, and sighed: "I hope your counterattack will not make too irreparable luàn~"
Rommel slightly put away the smiling god and said, "What do you think is the reason why the Alliance and the Horde joined forces?" ”
"The Burning Legion, of course!" Almost without thinking, Prince Garin blurted out.
Rommel nodded and continued to ask, "Then do you think that after this Shatas battle, there is still a possibility of joining forces again?" ”
"This、I'm afraid it's difficult~" Garin looked at the north with a detached gaze: "At least in the outer regions, it's difficult"
Rommel nodded again: "What we want is to suppress Stormwind City, or the Kingdom of Azeroth, not to break away from the alliance completely, so the weaker the alliance is, the better it will be for us Jīliubao and Brute Hammer Mountain." ”
"If the Alliance fails completely, we alone will not be an opponent of the Horde. Next, the Burning Legion, the Scourge, the successive enemies, and the horde will not be able to hold out for long."
"We want revival, not a broken net. The alliance and the tribe will completely break up, and the only one who will benefit will be the blood jīng spirit! ”
"At that time, we and Shattrath will completely lose their dominant position, and we will be constrained at every turn, and only by finding a way to make both the Alliance and the Horde feel a great crisis, can we promote the formation of the Alliance again. It's not the first time they've done this, is it? ”
Garin nodded, acknowledging Rommel's analysis, but still puzzled and asked, "But what do we get by doing this?" ”
"Seek self-preservation and suppress the enemy at the same time!" Rommel replied in a deep voice, "Just like Alex did." ”
"When the whole world is faced with an unparalleled crisis, he will definitely spare no effort to choose peace, as long as he can make the alliance and the tribe cooperate at a time, he will absolutely stop at nothing."
After a pause, he said in a cold voice: "But this time, the war was provoked by the tribe first, and the orcs also participated."
"Undoubtedly, if you want to seek cooperation, you must find someone to take responsibility for the battle of Shattrath. The orcs obviously couldn't, Thrall couldn't do that, and the Alliance knew they couldn't let him do it. So who is left? ”
Garin heard a cold sweat and blurted out in a trembling voice: "Blood jīng spirit!" And only they can be affected by this, this black cauldron"
"Not bad! It's the blood jīng spirit! A hint of coldness flashed in Rommel's eyes, and he sneered: "There is no doubt that this time the big luàn must have been provoked by Alex, he may be able to hide it from others, but the Jedi can't hide it from Sal!" ”
"The Blood Jīng Spirit is also the main force in this attack on Shattrath, and has a deep enmity with Delaney and Naru. Thrall needs to shirk responsibility and deflect contradictions, and the alliance and Shattrath will only turn a blind eye! And Kael'thas has a reputation"
"Hmph、There will only be one final result、The tribe and the blood jīng spirit completely broke apart!"
"I'd like to see if Alex can turn the tide?!"
Garin exhaled a long breath of turbidity: "As long as you release it, the Hellfire Peninsula will be completely eroded."
While they were talking, Cangtian Ge and the fifty brothers he had chosen appeared on the north side of the Hellfire Wall.
After the last time he fought with Danas Jiāo Feng and ended in a fiasco, 20,000 evil orcs were already the limit of the Broken Hand Clan.
When he learned that only Danas and about 5,000 old, weak, sick and disabled were left in the Fort of Honor, Kargas almost fell out of the nest in order to take revenge! Even adventurers such as Cang Tiange came to the rear unimpeded all the way after missing the army of evil orcs.
There are not many evil orcs left behind, and few people know about this hidden location at all, and they only encounter more than thirty guards along the way, and with the strength of the alliance team, it is completely crushing to deal with it. Almost at the same time as Kargas gave the order to attack the Fort of Honor, Cang Tiange and the others also arrived at their destination, a dark place hidden under the city walls, hidden at a certain corner
"President, this is our mission?" The captain of the hunter and the eighth order of the dark night jīng spirit confirmed in a deep voice.
"That's right, all we have to do is release the demon inside!" Cang Tiange took one last look at his brother behind him. The moment he saw the mission, he already understood that these people would never return alive in the double digits.
There is no ambition, only an unwavering look in response to him! No one has the slightest flinch.
An inexplicable heroic feeling, suddenly gushing out from the bottom of my heart, Cangtian Song chōu out of the double sword, striding into dòngxùe!
The yīn wind blows, as if it comes from the depths of hell, and the roar reaches the ears of everyone:
"Parasites, vampires! Drink my blood! ”
