Chapter 490 5: The Second Battle of Shattrath (4)
Chapter 495: The Second Battle of Shattrath (4)
In the past, the orcs were widely distributed in the world of Draenor, practiced a nomadic system, and the clans were independent and did not belong to each other. Until Kil'Gardan came to him, the most influential great shaman at the time, the Shadow Moon Chief Naozu, gave an order, and the kings of the major clans gathered together to form a tribe together!
Then, Medivan opened the dark gates, and the orc tribes invaded Azeroth, experiencing two major wars that affected the entire Eastern Kingdom!
When the defeated tribe re-established itself with Thrall's efforts, its strength was far less than the grand occasion when the king gathered, and the big clans such as Shadow Moon, Plunder, Dragon Roar, Blackstone, and Broken Hand had declined, split, or defected to other forces, so that the current tribal orc army could only rely on the big clans such as War Song, Thunder King, and Frost Wolf to support, plus the declining second-tier clans, such as the Blood Cave, etc., barely maintained the situation.
In the army, it seems that the big clans that can be formed, that is, Warsong and Thunder King, most of the frostwolves serve as guards, and most of them are still fighting the thunderspear dwarves in the Alterac Valley, but because of Draketar and Thrall, the shamans of the frostwolf clan are all over the place
Most of the 30,000 troops in front of him are the second batch of reinforcements brought by Nazgrell, which is what Ranger Captain Verenne said, mainly composed of Warsong, Thunder King, and the Blood Cave Clan. And the rest of the thousands of orcs who brought the first batch of troops from the Salma Fortress were mostly warriors of the Thunder King clan, so when Jolin, Sarufar and Garrosh raised their arms, the following immediately responded in droves!
In fact, the new tribe has not been formed for a long time, and many orc warriors still have a strong sense of belonging to the clan, and if they are allowed to surrender, rebel against the tribe, etc., they may hesitate. However, when the young patriarch appeared and took on the important responsibility of leading the clan again, he was immediately recognized by them
In just a few dozen breaths, under the stunned gaze of the Nazgrell and Krakuk guards, the originally strict array completely collapsed!
In front of Yorin, thousands of Blood Cave warriors stood silently, and in front of Little Sarufar, nearly 10,000 Thunder King warriors spontaneously formed a new formation.
In front of Garrosh, more than 10,000 Warsong orcs brandished their weapons and raised their heads to the sky and let out a furious roar:
"For the Battle Song! Roar for hell! "Long live the Warsong Clan! Long live Grom!! Long live Chief Garrosh!! ”
Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, and the furious momentum of the orc warriors converged and soared into the sky, making the entire Teroka Forest look sideways.
Garrosh naturally did not have stage fright, and waited until the shouting spontaneously calmed down, and took a step forward, raised one hand flat, and slowly waved the blood roar in front of him
For a long time since the Battle of Demon Slayer Canyon, the Warsong Warriors have lacked a spiritual leader, and although they also revere Thrall, as the Great Shaman, they cannot replace Grom's unparalleled position in their hearts
Once upon a time, they had charged in the direction of the axe, across Azeroth! After many years, when the blood roar reappeared, and it was in the hands of Grom's son, the equally powerful and domineering Garrosh, the Warsong warriors could no longer stop the excitement and blood boiling in their hearts!
The fury exuded by these warriors was so impressed that even the comrades-in-arms who had fought side by side were moved.
Garrosh has finally received the greatest treasure that his father left him! After decades of being a leader in Maghan, he was exhausted, and it was not until this moment that he saw these passionate warriors that he realized for the first time what he wanted, the berserk blood of Grom, and finally awakened!
"Warriors, today, in front of all of you, I will reveal an ugly secret that has been hidden for decades, if not centuries!"
"I, Garrosh, bear witness to the truth of this secret with the blood that flows in my heart and comes from the roar of hell!!"
The new King of Warsongs, wielding a blood-colored battle axe, screams and roars from the bottom of his heart in front of the orcs: "Naru, those ugly creatures who always boast of their righteousness and goodness. Secretly they are devouring souls by doing evil deeds that even demons spurn for them! ”
The orcs below were in a commotion, and although they were equally disgusted with Naru and the Draenei, they had never heard of such a horrific thing
"Just a few days ago, we found a dead Naru inside the Sacred Mountain of Voshugu, a Naru that exudes the purest shadow energy!"
The orcs were in an uproar, shocked, and even forgot to talk, looking at Garrosh in disbelief, and Draranosh of Garin next to him.
"Without any of us knowing, this Naru has existed in the Holy Mountain for hundreds of years."
"What he did was devour souls. Devour the great ancestral spirits of our orc race! ”
"Revenge, let Naru and the Draenei pay for their blood, this is what you want to do now, tell me, your choice!"
What would an orc tribe that believe in shamanism and believe in the souls of their ancestors do when someone blasphemes the spirits of their ancestors?
"Let Naru's blood debt be paid in blood~~!" "Kill all the Draenei! Make these intruders disappear with rhyme! "Kill them, in the name of the Spirit of the Ancestors!"
The crowd was surging, and not only the soldiers of the War Song Clan, but even the Thunder King, Blood, and the warriors of other small and medium-sized clans couldn't bear it
Nazgrell, who was awakened by the guards, saw the scene in front of him, and couldn't help vomiting blood here, and fell down with a wilted expression. Trend!
The current situation, if the warriors did not vent their frustration and anger in their hearts, even the presence of Thrall himself could not necessarily stop it.
Krakuk was bitter, his eyes flashed with a hint of relief, a hint of helplessness, and more, but confusion and confusion.
He didn't know whether he should be happy or worried. Although Garrosh and the others did it themselves, he would never believe that these three backs would lie in the name of the spirit of the ancestors! From the standpoint of personal feelings, he would rather watch the orcs pay for their blood debts. However, from the perspective of the big picture, this will undoubtedly cause the already tense relations of the Alliance Tribes to completely collapse and provoke an irretrievable war, which the old general does not want to see
Half an hour later, the army of 30,000 orcs, who had been initially argued by Garrosh, finally stepped out of the Broken Stone Castle, but the target was no longer Shadowmoon Valley, and under the leadership of Dranosh, they slaughtered Shattrath in the northwest!
Cracked Rock Mountain is such a big mess, naturally it can't hide from other people's ears and eyes, let alone such a sensitive period?
It didn't take long for the Alliance Camp in the Cenarion Forest to receive the news
"In the end, it was a step too late?" Warren looked at the northwest in a daze, a bitter smile on his face.
Shaoqing retracted his gaze, didn't look back, and asked casually, "Is it a blood elf?" How could Nazgrell be so unwise and let them mess with it at will? ”
In front of him, a trace of complicated color flashed in the eyes of the High Elf scout, and he said indifferently: "It's Maghan orcs, they launched a mutiny to seize the command!" ”
"Mutiny? You mean the orc mutiny? Or infighting? Warren's face was full of astonishment, and he looked like he had seen Akmund alive: "Can you still mutiny and seize power?" Where did the Maghan clan get this influence? Are all orcs brain-dead? The 30,000-strong army says it will change."
The elven scout was silent, in fact, he didn't know which one the orcs were playing, compared to humans, the power disputes within the tribe and the same lineage, especially the internal orcs, humans and elves knew little information, and they couldn't get any useful information at all.
What's more, the identities and news of Garrosh, Sarufar Jr., and Yorin, as well as the generals of the tribe, are not known, let alone the alliance?
Seeing that the scout looked like this, Warren also knew that he had asked nonsense, so he waved his hand helplessly and changed the topic: "What's the news from Fort Honor?" ”
The elven scout was prepared this time and did not hesitate: "The reinforcements have already departed, led by General Rommel himself, and are crossing the Thorn Path. ”
"The Thorn Way? It's too slow! Warren frowned: "Go tell Rommel and let him rush to Shattrath as soon as possible, there is no time"
On the other hand, the fortress of Aurelia was also warned by Warren, and although the griffon knights sent by Kudran to inform the news were all wiped out due to the ambush of Temugors, Warren still prepared the High Elf Expeditionary Force just in case.
For this reason, Arator, who was originally stationed in the Thorn Path, waited for Rommel to lead the army into the Way, and rushed over with his subordinates as soon as possible, which finally brought the number of defenders of Aurelia Fortress to 5,000, and the improvement of the fortifications was finally able to support it for a while.
Brute Hammer Fortress, despite the fact that scouts have been dispatched, but the old dwarf Eli * Lightning Strike still feels uneasy, and the sudden actions of the demons are full of strange feelings, and even Kudran, who has always been nervous, feels that something is wrong
After a long time of hesitation, the dwarves finally made up their minds and stood still! The Griffon Knights cling to the Hammer Fortress just in case.
But it's not the inactive and famous Dragon Slayer, Kudran and his beloved Scarre, who personally set out to make a beeline for the Teroka Forest!
And just as the old dwarf poured the last sack of liquor he had extorted, and the cold wind blew in the sky, the Void Dragons, who had eliminated two groups of griffin scouts, began to get a little impatient. The character of the dragon, unless he is sleeping, don't expect him to stay in one place honestly for more than a quarter of an hour~
"Tiger Boss, it's almost time, right? If it's late, Sister Tyri will go berserk! A young dragon weakly reminded.
Temugors nodded involuntarily and approvingly, the name Tyri was a complete nightmare for the entire Void Dragon Clan!
However, after hesitating, he still refused: "Wait, didn't Alex say that we should wait until the demon army appears before retreating?" ”
"For his sake, maybe Sister Terry will let us go?" With a little luck, and helplessness: "It's too late anyway~"
The group of young dragons continued to suffer for about half a moment, and finally from the direction of Shadow Moon Valley, there were bursts of chaotic roars.
"It's coming! They're coming! Far more excited than the griffin knights they had just seen, the dragons cheered, flapped their wings and flew to the northwest with all their suckling strength, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. If they waited even a quarter of an hour, they might not be able to walk if they wanted to, and just a quarter of an hour after the dragons left, Kudran rode his royal storm griffon Scarley, who was more than a lap larger than his kind, into the Teroka jungle
On the shores of the Viper Lake, Vasqui, the Enchantress of the Depths, with tens of thousands of Naga warriors and a few powerful generals, watched as the last of the Alliance warriors marched into the Cenarion Expeditionary Camp and allowed the druids to close the gates and build fortifications.
"As you expected, exactly 30,000 human troops!" The Lord of the Deep Water, Carathres, looked at Iserus with emotion.
The war envoy naturally did not have any doubts, in fact, he also cared about guessing the movements of the alliance, and knew that the other party would definitely come out
"Then, Venerable Lady Vaschi, it's up to the Naga warriors to perform individually! Siege? Or is it a storm? ”
"Siege, of course!" Carathres did not hesitate, changing the obscene appearance just now, his face was solemn and depressed, and he was serious.
But the princess of Fuyahi and the prince of Haghaz immediately retorted: "Siege? It's ridiculous, don't you know how many good things you gave to them? ”
As he spoke, Feryahi unabashedly threw Iserius all sorts of stinky faces, annoyance, disdain, resentment, and pride.
This provocation has been going on for a whole day, and Iselius has long been accustomed to it, from the initial disdain, to the annoyance, and then to the current indifference, allowing the two brain-soaked fellows to shout again and again, just to focus on Vaschi's body, and tentatively:
"Ma'am, if you're not willing, why don't you try to launch a tentative attack or two?"
Vaschi did not answer, but gave Iserius a deep look and said in a cold voice, "You said that Shattrath will not send any reinforcements here!" ”
Iserus tilted his head and thought about it, and just as the Nagas were about to get impatient, he said indifferently: "Yes, I promise! ”
In the next moment, the boundless Naga army rushed to the Cenarion expeditionary camp like a rising tide, and the two major clans of Bloodscale and Darktide were one east and one west, completely blocking the retreat of the alliance and druids in the camp
Half an hour later, at the swamp rat camp, the exhausted Temurgus and the Void Dragons landed, stretched out their tongues and opened their mouths wide, lying on the ground like dead dogs. It's a pity that our new Void Dragon Queen doesn't give them any time to rest.
"Get up for me! Tiger, I know you're useless. Tyri didn't know where to get a queen's whip, and under the guidance of Onyxia next to her, she threw out a crisp sound with great interest, and said proudly: "Fortunately, I moved the time forward a little by half an hour..."
As he spoke, he took out an hourglass and looked at it, and nodded with satisfaction: "Now it's just time for me to get up and start work!" ”
Temugels almost collapsed when he heard this, and wondered why Xie Feng's cautious and conservative nature would arrange two tasks for himself that were destined to conflict in time? Only now do I understand the truth, and the time given by Xie Feng is just right, because Terry is good at making the main account and temporarily tampering with it
But before they could complain, a troll had already fixed a tailor-made dragon saddle on their backs, and then hundreds of blood elves wearing technician's magic robes, carrying large boxes, struggled to climb onto the back of the Void Dragon. And Tyri and Onexia honestly and unceremoniously found Temugels~
The group of dragons who had just returned, plus those who had originally stayed on the Dragon Cliff, formed a total of more than two hundred and nearly three hundred dragon knight combinations~
"Alex, it's really ruthless" Looking at his subordinates who were ready to go, Passaren sighed: "This is the style of blood elves!" ”
Sebislay was a little disagreeable, and sneered: "Such a large layout, it's just beyond my strength!" It's best to pray that nothing goes wrong."
"It's definitely going to come out! No one can avoid this~" Passaren shook his head and said: "It's just that regardless of success or failure, is there a worse situation than now?" ”
The Hellfire Peninsula, the Terokkar Forest, the Shadowmoon Valley, the Zangar Swamp, ogres, blood elves, demons, naga, alliances, hordes, shatras, cenarion, and even adventurers, all of them have been swept up in this great storm that has swept the outlands over time
Whether it is the layout, the game-breaker, or the person in the game, they are all doing their best for themselves and the existence they are guarding!
At dusk, almost two hours after the Rift Rock Fortress mutiny, 30,000 blood elves, ogres, orcs and 30,000 tribal armies that had just 'revolted' gathered on the small plains south of Shattrath City.
Thick tree stumps are everywhere and tell the story of the tragedy that befell here. Just half a month ago, this small plain was still a dense forest shrouded in countless towering trees, but when the Stone Fist ogre suddenly emerged from the forest and caught the defenders off guard, Captain Durin, the commander of the Shatar Guard, was angry and gave the order to cut down the trees, and then that's it!
On the opposite side of the 60,000 tribal army was the 30,000 alliance and Shattrath coalition army waiting on the city wall. The other 30,000 were scattered to the eastern city wall, facing off against the demon army led by Varedis.
The alliance is 60,000 and the tribe is 110,000, this is the difference in strength between the two sides at this time! However, counting the combat effectiveness and offensive and defensive forms, the gap is obviously not obvious.
"Alex, what are you waiting for?" Yolin walked quickly behind Xie Feng and said in a low but eager voice, "The warriors can't hold it anymore!" ”
Can't stand it? Xie Feng pointed to the alliance army guarding the city wall, and said angrily: "You tell me how to fight?!" ”
It's true that orcs are good at attacking, but on the other hand, the league is also good at defense! Where are the iron cans armed to the teeth, and by the time they really enter Chengli, the orcs and blood elves will almost die
"Damn it, step by step, to attack the city in a templated way like a textbook, this is an act of seeking death! Only the stupidest and most incompetent commander would do this, learn to use your brains and don't always try to solve problems with muscles! ”
Jolin was equally annoyed, if there was another way, who would want to storm it? And he himself couldn't get used to the habit of orcs charging when their brains were hot, so he waved his hand and said irritably: "Then what good can you do??" Remember, we don't have much time, do you want them to mutiny again? ”
Garrosh's speech was very on-point, even a little overdone! So much so that the orc warriors were so excited that even he couldn't hold it down
"No need to ask, they're coming!" Xie Feng's face was full of excitement, and he pointed to the northern sky and the Void Dragons who came in groups: "Hurry up and inform Garrosh and Varedis, so that the soldiers can prepare to attack!" ”
Then, under Jorin's bewildered gaze, the Void Dragons swept high above Shattrath, and when they were halfway there, the knights on the Void Dragon's quilt suddenly leaned over and threw strange diamond-shaped, purple glowing strange objects at the Alliance troops on the walls below
"That's an Arcane Bomb?!!" Thousands of familiar voices, revealing a touch of poignant color, Warretar was frightened, and shouted incoherently: "Retreat! Stop, stop them! Don't let the explosion fall, quick!! ”
But it's a pity that it's only now that I've reacted, and it's obviously too late
"Hahaha~~~ Poor Holy Light! Tremble in the shadow of Lord Temugors' wings! Tremble!! ”
With a deafening roar and heart-rending screams, the arrogant roar of the Void Dragon resounded throughout the audience!
