Chapter 229: Reflection and New Problems
Chapter 229: Reflections and New Problems
The "strategic retreat" of Alsace and Kel'thugad eventually made the old Tang lose hope of taking advantage of the opportunity to kill them.
The furious old Don could only unleash his anger on those abandoned death knights. Enraged, the old Tang danced the two war hammers like windmills, but the heavy war hammers were as fast as lightning in Old Tang's hands, and more than a dozen death knights were sent to hell by the "Titan Power" war hammer almost instantly, which alleviated the tyrannical feelings in his heart after missing the opportunity.
After all, in the previous war, Lao Tang just looked majestic.
If it really were to say that with Old Tang's current strength, he could crush the Great Lich Kel'thugad and Arthas, who was holding the Frost Sorrow, and Old Tang himself would poke his nose. Don't say that Alsace and Ke are all on the same page, even if they are just facing anyone in their heyday, today's Lao Tang is not thirty percent sure that he dares to threaten to win!
You must know that none of these two natural disaster generals are good stubble.
Arthas, who has not yet merged with Naozu, will not mention it for the time being, but the powerful magic power of Kel'thugad, who is known as the strongest lich after bathing in the water of the sunwell, is already comparable to the accumulation of thousands of years of the elven prince, how can it be easily dismissed?
The reason why Arthas was completely suppressed by Old Tang in the previous battle was because he was severely injured by a set of combination attacks from the Elven Prince before he fought Old Tang. The inability to move and the strength have plummeted, and most of them are naturally unable to fight with all their strength. Otherwise, it is not yet known who will die in the duel between the violent bear and the tiger, where will Old Tang win so easily?
And the Great Lich Kel'thugad is even more miserable, just getting a vast body of mana before he can get used to it and rush into battle. Not only do you have to deal with the terrifying attack of the elven prince in a berserk state, but you also have to be distracted from the battle situation on Arthas's side. Even at a critical time, he had to act as a spellcaster and help the seriously injured Death Knight block the sword, which would be severely injured by Old Tang.
Otherwise, if he is distanced by this powerful great lich, it is estimated that the one who will be humiliated will be replaced by Lao Tang......
In short, a situation like this one, which almost drove Alsace and Kel'thugad to a dead end, is no longer possible, and it is no wonder that the extremely stable old Don, who has always been extremely stable, beats his chest for the loss of this golden opportunity.
However, compared to Old Tang's rage afterwards, there was another person who was even more crazy.
The enemy who broke the country and destroyed the family was about to be beheaded, but escaped trial at the last moment, which made Kael'thas completely lose his mind, which was already on the verge of losing control.
Violent magic erupted from the elven prince's body, attacking all objects around Kael'thas that could still move, even Old Tang was affected. In the end, it was Old Tang who relied on his rough skin and thick flesh to get injured to knock out the irrational Kael'thas unconscious, so that the elven prince would not continue to hurt others and himself......
When Kael'thas finally came to his senses, he immediately rushed to investigate the current situation of the Well of the Sun with several magisters, while Old Tang took over the baton and dispatched the coalition warriors in the center to exterminate the remaining undead scourge on Kui Island.
……
After the two Scourge commanders, Arthas and Kel'thugad, were forced to flee by the alliance of Old Tang and the Elven Prince, the Scourge completely collapsed in its original formation and command, which was not a tight one. The walking corpse, which frantically attacked all the living people with only bloodthirsty instincts, was already a scattered sand, no longer had any restraints and rules, and no longer posed any threat to the soldiers of the coalition army.
Under the command of generals at all levels, the officers and men of the coalition took advantage of the situation to launch a harsh and fierce counterattack.
With the reasonable tacit cooperation between the various arms and the complementary advantages, this encirclement and suppression against the remnants of the natural disaster was firmly in the hands of the coalition forces from the very beginning.
Hatred, anger, resentment...... The negative emotions accumulated by the Coalition warriors in this war erupted into the most ferocious and powerful attacks poured out on the undead elites of the Scourge Legion who were regarded as outcasts.
In the bleak darkness of the night, a massacre was staged on Quelldanas Island.
However, this time the roles are reversed, and the hunter becomes the prey......
A night of fierce fighting.
At dawn, the fighting on Queldanus Island finally subsided.
As if knowing that the purgatory-like war had come to an end, the sun was finally willing to rise from the sea level, and the bright sun pierced the night and sprinkled itself on the island of Queldanus.
In an instant, the heavens and the earth are full of light!
Standing on a small hill in the first rays of the sun, the old Tang reclined on a small hill and took a deep breath on a thick cigar to relieve the tingling sensation in his temples caused by the sleepless days of sleeplessness.
What Lao Tang wants to do most now must be to sleep beautifully, but it is estimated that this not extravagant wish of Lao Tang will be difficult to achieve in a short time. He still had a lot of important things to do before he could relax, and each of these things was enough for Old Tang to give him a headache......
Old Tang is not a genius with outstanding talents, and before he crossed over, he was not a peerless general who crossed the battlefield and led a group of leaders.
However, the reason why Old Tang was able to slowly establish his name in the world of Azeroth, where heroes are endless, and even became the next great chief of the Shuharu clan, is that in addition to the "prophetic" advantages brought by the extensive information bombardment and familiar with the "plot" brought by the information bombardment of later generations, there are also two advantages that are also indispensable.
Dare to fight!
Be introspective!
Fighting again and again, no matter who the opponent is, Lao Tang has never been afraid of the enemy and cowardly; Again and again, no matter what the results are, Lao Tang will always humbly summarize and reflect...... In this way, in the past few years of life in Azeroth, not only did the Minotaur begin to rise strongly, but Old Don also gradually grew. From the previous nobody, he has grown step by step to now being able to take charge of Cheng Dù!
This growth is not just about strength......
Glaring, Don rubbed his still aching temples and began to reflect on the pros and cons of the High Elves and Minotaurs in the Battle of Quel'Thalas, as well as the mistakes he had made in his game against Arthas.
In this brutal battle with the Scourge Army, Old Tang's expression can be described in eight words - tactical victory, strategic defeat......
The old Tang, who has won many battles since the crossing, finally suffered the first defeat in his life.
Although with the help of the soldiers of the Dragon Wrestling Legion, the High Elf allies resisted the furious onslaught of the undead army, and relied on various means to destroy tens of thousands of undead walking corpses;
Although the magnificent and gorgeous Silvermoon City was saved from the destruction of the war due to the mortal resistance of the soldiers, the natural disaster forces besieging the Well of the Sun have also been strangled, and there is not much left;
Even after the outbreak of Lao Tang killed the crypt lord Anubarak in one fell swoop, he teamed up with the elven prince to defeat the high-end technical nerd of the father-killer Arthas and Mr. Ke, and in a short period of time, he picked three heroic masters who were famous in later generations.
But from a strategic point of view, Arthas and his Scourge were the ultimate victors in this battle
King Anastrian was cut off by the sorrow of the frost and became a cripple, which made his strength plummet, and it is estimated that after the war, he could only reluctantly abdicate to make way for Xian; The most important thing is that the Sunwell was defiled by the Scourge Legion, and Kel'thugad was finally reborn with the help of the Sunwell's power, even more powerful than he once was.
It can be said that the strategic goal of the Scourge of the Dead has been achieved!
As for the hundreds of thousands of undead cannon fodder and troops lost by the Scourge Legion, it is really not worth mentioning for the undead Scourge that can replenish its members anytime and anywhere
On the other hand, in the strategic layout that he has always been proud of, the still immature old Tang was pitted by Alsace several times in a battle! If it weren't for the last moment, Lao Tang relied on his personal bravery to move back to save a little face, I'm afraid that this time Lao Tang would have become a complete loser......
Good old Tang's arrangement finally didn't do useless work.
Old Don's reminder a long time ago allowed Kael'thas, who had insight into the Scourge Legion's attack plan, to return to Quel'Salas early to preside over the overall situation at the most urgent and critical moment, instead of receiving the bad news after the dust had settled like history.
And the Queldore, who had a precious buffer time, evacuated most of their compatriots in the path of the natural disaster in time, and avoided a massacre.
Coupled with the fact that Old Tang and the Dragon Wrestling Legion came to help, the High Elf Kingdom with the support of the Minotaur allies was no longer as isolated as in 'history', but had greatly increased its strength to resist the natural disaster army like the sea tide, so that Silver Moon City and hundreds of thousands of High Elf civilians were finally saved.
After the battle, although the High Elf Kingdom still suffered heavy losses in a series of bloody battles, most of the losses were in terms of property, and as for the casualties, they were not broken. In the face of the tide of natural disasters, the sacrifices of the warriors are still within the acceptable range. Compared with the tragic situation of the high elves who were almost wiped out in Old Tang's previous life, this is already much, much better......
All in all, the original intention of Lao Tang's strategy of doing his best to preserve the combat power of the blood elves did not fail, but the effect was remarkable, and as for other flaws, Lao Tang could also be put aside after being depressed.
But...... Except for one problem - addiction!
Old Tang, who has always liked to consider the overall situation as much as possible, naturally will not ignore such a key problem as blood elf addiction in the future. After all, this is the key factor in the future when Kael'thas fell into the abyss, transforming from a veritable handsome man to a tragic figure. For Lao Tang, who wants to change the tragic fate of the elf prince, the problem of blood elves' addiction is a hurdle that must be overcome!
However, fortunately, Lao Tang has combined the intelligence and information he knows, and has come up with a generally reliable solution with a success rate of seven or eight percent, and in fact, he has put one of these steps into practice and taken action.
All that's left is to study the feasibility with Kael'tham, who is also a professional, when the problem of magic addiction first emerges.
As for whether the plan can be successful in the end, Don doesn't dare to pack a ticket.
But at the very least, Don will not let Kael'thas, who has become his friend and important ally of the Minotaurs, repeat the mistakes of the past and follow Kil'Gardan on the road of no return, ushering in a tragic end...... Q
