Chapter 194: The Battle of Silvermoon City - Left Hook! (1st Update)
…… Chapter 194: The Battle of Silver Moon City - Left Hook! (1st Update)
Don Sr. and Arthas narrowly managed to draw in the first round of the meeting.
However, Old Tang still thinks that he has lost a lot of money!
Compared to the powerful strength and monstrous strength controlled by the Scourge Legion, in general, the losses of the coalition side are greater! After all, the warriors of the alliance of the two races lost an irretrievable strength for every one loss, but the Scourge Legion never had the risk of running out of troops!
Relatively speaking, Arthas definitely earned the price of the almost total annihilation of the Banshee Army in exchange for the heavy damage of the Magister Legion and the withdrawal from the battle sequence!
The role of the Magister Legion against the coalition is irreplaceable, without the magic coverage and arcane blocking of these Magus and Arch-Mage, the firepower of the coalition has dropped several levels, and the lethality and deterrence of the Scourge Legion have also been greatly weakened! As a result, Don, who originally lacked chips in his hands, had to rely on those ranger units that had sharply reduced their lethality to the walking dead to fill the gap in long-range firepower......
And for the undead scourge side, the loss of the Banshee army will not be taken into account at all! The Banshee Troop was already dispensable in the Scourge Legion's attack sequence, and it was a surprise for Arthas to use the Banshee's howl to wreak havoc on the Magister Legion that was rampaging Azeroth!
It's not that the banshee's abilities aren't strong enough, but Arthas has absolute confidence in his army of the dead! Even without those banshees, he believed that there was nothing to hold back his blades and hinder the progress of the stagnant Scourge Legion!
Silvermoon City, which has stood for nearly 10,000 years, will eventually be broken by itself until it is completely destroyed and erased from the map!
As for the loss of the banshee? As long as he can breach Silvermoon City, with the power of Frost Sorrow, Arthas will be able to pull together an even more terrifying army of banshees without much difficulty! For the Cataclysmic Legion that "feeds the war with war", a simple loss of troops is equivalent to no loss!
And for the coalition led by Don Sr. and Prince Kael'thas that doesn't stop there......
The heroic master of the coalition side, Soul Walker Barathen*Soulhoof, has now fallen to the ground. The power of the soul is strictly overdrawn, and he does not have three or two days of rest, and he will definitely not be able to recover his peak combat power!
This is still a blessing thanks to the amazing physical strength of the minotaur and the amazing ability to recover!
In the round of treacherous battle just now, the old white bull was equivalent to single-handedly dragging the banshee army of thousands of people for more than ten breaths, laying the tone of victory for the coalition side to completely defeat and annihilate this strange ability of the natural disaster force!
But it's not for nothing!
Even if it is the soul walker Barathen* Spirit Hoof who has lived for an unknown amount of time, the effect of soul imprisonment is almost against the sky, and it is definitely not a great skill that can be put away if you want to!
Even if the old white bull is a powerful hero-level master, the majestic soul power is as vast as the Stygian Sea;
Even a ghostly creature with only a soul body, such as a banshee, is precisely restrained by the abilities of the Star Soul Walker;
Even if the Banshee Army had just failed to possess and suffered heavy losses, it was when the will was weak, and the only "Queen Xià" who could compete with the old white bull struggled with all his strength on the battlefield, so as to resist the control of Alsace, and he couldn't do anything......
But after all, it was thousands of banshees of not low rank, even with the strength of the old white bull, it would not be easy to do so!
The vast soul power of the old white cow was consumed in just ten breaths! You must know that once the strength reaches the hero level, it is almost impossible to run out of strength on the battlefield due to combat attrition!
After all, unlike attributes like the body, it is also limited by the constraints of natural conditions such as physical strength and recovery ability, and the strength of a hero-level master is enough to make the source of power in the body as vast and endless......
In short, the old white bull who has performed the soul confinement stunt has no two days to lay the foundation, and there is absolutely no way to participate in the battle again and fight with the Scourge Legion......
However, this is not what worries Old Tang the most.
The two of them, Haijiao and Blackhorn, escorted the soul walker Barathen* Spirit Hoof back to the rear to recuperate, and the frowning old Tang was already staring at the natural disaster array in front of Silvermoon City with a pair of angry eyes, where the death knight Arthas made another move...... The second wave of the Scourge's offensive soon began.
A whimpering and desolate trumpet sound resounded in the sky, faintly sounding on the battlefield, like a cold wind through a glacial hole!
Behind Arthas, hundreds of death knights armed with rune swords and riding bone horses had gathered unconsciously, including humans, dwarves, and high elves
And after blowing the winter horn in their hands, these hundreds of death knights instigated the skeleton military horses under their crotches, leading the undead troops gathered behind them to slowly approach Silvermoon City, starting the second wave of the Scourge Legion's offensive!
And in the midst of this mighty army of natural disasters, at least dozens of huge siege towers are protected.
And each siege tower, which was close to eight or nine meters high, was pushed and shoved by more than a dozen rotten abominations like a mountain of flesh with brute force, slowly advancing forward! And these siege towers that appear on the battlefield are exactly what really attract the attention of Old Tang!
A siege tower is like a simple building made of giant logs.
Dozens of thick oak and birch branches are tightly tied together by animal tendons and ropes, and then nailed to death with thick rivets, forming a wall-like protection. Agile and nimble, ghouls can enter from the base of the siege tower and sprint up the stairs. Halfway through, it is protected by wooden planks, so it is difficult to take a hit.
At the top of the stairs is the exit of the siege tower, and this exit is basically level with the height of the city wall, when the ghoul runs out of the exit, he can immediately step on the wall of Silvermoon City and start a white-knuckle battle with the allied soldiers!
Each siege tower is also equipped with a lookout post stacked with steel plates, and groups of cursed cultists and necromancers can also carry out magical strikes on the city head under the protection of the steel plates, interfering with and killing the soldiers defending the city, which is quite vicious......
However, siege towers are a great weapon for siege, but they are not without their drawbacks.
It takes too long to manufacture and is too expensive to build as a disposable appliance; The slow movement speed and sheer size make these siege towers the most visible targets......
It's a pity that after the Magister Legion was hit hard, it is difficult for Old Tang to effectively kill now, except for the few arcane bombs that are reserved for emergencies! Moreover, the army of the dead in Arthas is obviously prepared, and this siege tower is naturally ready, but it is only split into parts and escorted by the baggage troops!
The time for that round of confrontation was enough for the technicians of the Scourge Legion to reassemble these siege machines!
In addition to these large number of siege towers, there are also several fiercely shaped ramming vehicles, and the plague catapults that were not destroyed before have also pushed forward again to fire again after losing the threat of the Magus Legion!
A bloody corpse burst through the air, constantly crashing against the walls of Silvermoon City, forcing the Minotaur Warriors to distract themselves from protecting the elven rangers who had just recovered from the banshee's wail and were still somewhat ignorant!
Occasionally, several huge plague barrels shattered as they smashed into the city, splashing large dark green foul-smelling clouds. Whether it is the High Elf priest, the minotaur druids and the shamans, they also have to use their own means to disperse the toxins and remove the danger from their comrades in the area of the poison cloud......
In the open space in front of Silvermoon City, those obstacles that had been set up under the orders of Old Tang before the battle were inevitably affected by the covering blow of the Magister just now, and they had become incomplete and dilapidated. Now there is no power to stop the fierce attack of the Scourgeon Legion's Sea of the Undead.
All of a sudden, the Scourge Legion was on the offensive, and the huge pressure was about to suffocate people!
Old Tang's heart tightened, and the attack speed and threat of the Undead Scourge were greatly increased! Once those siege machines arrive in front of Silvermoon City, under the impact of the Sea of the Undead, a brutal white-knuckle battle will inevitably begin, and casualties will be inevitable!
"Seven hundred yards! Fire Bolt Shooting! ”
"Put!"
Grudig, a man with facial palsy, is one of the few coalition generals in the city who has remained calm. Visually surveyed the distance of the siege equipment, and the moment they came within range of the Minotaur Hunter troops, the man with the face gave the battle order to the Minotaur Hunters under his command!
Thousands of arrows soaked in fire oil pierced the sky with a raging flame and a terrible scream, like meteors with tail flames shooting towards the wooden siege towers.
The fire bolt is still very threatening to those siege equipment, and the adhesion of the rocket is relatively strong after being coated with fire oil, and it is also a certain problem for the siege tower. Thousands of rockets were stuck in the siege towers, and the oil attached to the planks ignited the flames.
But the undead scourge is not unprepared! Almost at the same time, the hundreds of Death Knights summoned the power of ice in their collective and unleashed a chilling wind impact on the siege towers that were hit by fire arrows around them, and the icy and biting cold wind and frost almost instantly extinguished the oil fire attached to the siege equipment.
The fire bolts of the Minotaur hunters could not be said to be ineffective, at least they delayed the speed of the siege towers by a large extent
As for the rockets, they are of little use to those rushing cars covered with a layer of wet cowhide. Dozens of Abominations were shielded from the arrows with large, rusty shields they had picked up out of nowhere.
Although there are still occasional missed fire arrows, shooting the undead of the natural disaster one by one. But to the tidal force of the Scourge, this loss didn't matter at all! Almost in the next second, other walking dead will make up for it! It's a pity that this wave of counterattack by the coalition forces has nothing worth mentioning except for taking away thousands of walking dead!
The house leak happened to rain overnight!
Just when Old Tang was still worried about how to destroy those siege machines, another unit of the Cataclysm Legion that made Old Tang deeply jealous inserted into the battlefield at the most helpless time, instantly bringing a huge threat to the coalition army!
Gargoyles!
