Chapter 48: Fierce Battle
Chapter Forty-Eight: Fierce Battle "Queue!" Raise your spear and set up your shield! ”
Lothar's order spread from the Union army, and the soldiers quickly obeyed the command. From the moment the cavalry launched the assault just now, they were ready, and these elite soldiers drawn from human countries perfectly carried out the orders given by the commander. Bands of soldiers converged and lined up a solid wall of shields with their spears exposed
"Tulayan! Take the cavalry to the hillside on the left! Go around from the side," Qiu Chen said to Tulayan on the side from the back of the battle formation, "When I attack with the Iron Horse Brotherhood, I will send you a signal, and if there is a problem with the defensive line, you will lead the cavalry to cooperate with me to copy the flank of the orcs!" ”
"I see!" Tulayan nodded, waved his hand, and rode away with a group of Lordaeron knights.
"I thought that ancient heroes were supposed to be invincible and invincible on the battlefield," Khadgar, dressed in brown robes, said to Qiuchen, "It's completely different from what I've seen in legendary novels."
"A novel is always a novel" Qiu Chen snorted lightly, his attention still on the battlefield. No matter how strong his strength is, it is impossible for him to solve the entire tribe alone, and the power of Sargeras is crushing for Azeroth, but he still needs the Burning Legion to help him, not to mention that the strength of Autumn Dust has not yet reached that level
With a bang, a group of tribes slammed into the shield wall on the defense line of hundreds of meters, and the horses that were more than three meters long were pierced with the corpses of the orcs, and most of the defenders pressed forward tightly to resist the attacks of the orcs and did not retreat, but the impact brought by the strong strength of the orcs hit the gaps in many places, and some soldiers were knocked down by the orcs and never got up, but the soldiers behind quickly crossed them to fill in the gaps in the defense line
As soon as the first wave of impact receded, the second wave of orcs followed, and although the tribe once again paid the price of thousands of people, this time the shield wall was almost shattered by the impact
Qiu Chen stared at the defense line and waved his hand to signal the nearest soldier captain, and the soldiers reacted quickly, and the second shield wall was quickly established before the previous line of defense completely collapsed. Orcs would have paid a great price to assault these steel lines with flesh and blood under the cover of human archers, and if they could have set up a few more lines of defense and inflict heavy damage on the orcs before the human soldiers had to engage in a scuffle, they would have gained an extra advantage
The second shield wall did not survive the two impacts, and soon the third shield wall was erected, but the orcs were not stupid, and after breaking through the second shield wall and leaving thousands of corpses on the front line, they did not choose to continue the attack, but stood not far away and watched
"Death Knight" Qiuchen smacked his lips, he didn't expect to see a group of Death Knights here, and it was the first batch of Death Knights "Khadgar, you get ready, give the enemy a dismount"
"No problem" Khadgar's fingers swirled, and arcane energy began to converge
A group of figures dressed in heavy cloaks appeared. They all covered their faces with turbans, so that only their eyes could be seen, and each one carried a strange fiery red stick. Riding heavily armed horses with burning eyes, the fellows charged straight at the shield wall, and as they approached, all the Death Knights raised their clubs at the same time. With a buzzing sound, the soldiers in front of these guys fell straight down, clutching their heads in pain
"Khadgar!" In fact, there is no need for Qiu Chen to say, the young old mage has already launched an attack, and a bolt of lightning slashed through the sky above the alliance army formation like a snake out of the hole, and slashed into the head of a death knight at the front, only to see its head wrapped in a turban suddenly exploded, and then the whole person fell to the ground together with the war horse under the crotch
He only has some shadow spells, but he doesn't use runes, and he doesn't even have the most basic anti-magic shield. Qiuchen shook his head, it seemed that sometimes the old antiques were not always good, at least the knights of Acherous would not be killed by the mage's frontal attack
In an instant, there was a cheer among the Alliance soldiers, and then the soldiers parted to the two sides, and a gap opened in the shield wall for Uther to lead Tirio, Gavinrad, and Dassault Khan, and the four paladins rushed towards the remaining three death knights, while the paladin's holy light caused the fallen soldiers due to the shadow spell to get back to their feet, blocking the gap in the defensive line
The battlefield between the paladins and the death knights shifted to the outside of the defense line, and seeing that their death knights did not come in handy, the orcs began to continue to attack the defense line, but this time they were no longer charging in batches, but swarming up, as if they wanted to take advantage of this to give humans no chance to rebuild the defense line
"Look over there!" When the battle was at a stalemate, an adjutant on Qiuchen's side stretched out his hand and pointed to the side of the orc army. He followed the adjutant's hand and saw a group of creatures much taller than the orcs appear, brandishing sticks like uprooted trees and rushing towards the human defenses, and the shield soldiers were knocked down in front of them like toys, and soon, the whole shield wall collapsed, and the tribe attacked through the gaps, sweeping the alliance soldiers inside.
Draenor's Ogre!
"Damn it! Make the soldiers retreat and form a defensive squad! Retreat to the hills and regroup! Hearing this, several deputies beside Qiu Chen immediately left to give orders to the various heralds, so he turned to look at the mage on the other side, "Khadgar, are you busy?" Qiuchen saw that Khadgar had just made a gesture that caused an orc in a cloth robe to fall to the side of the boat
"Ah, nothing, it's just that a warlock wants to have a fight with me," Khadgar waved his hand, "so I let it go to its ancestors"
"Can you use some spells to cover the retreat of the soldiers, we need time for the soldiers to regroup" Qiu Chen waved his hand, and the knight of the Iron Horse Brotherhood behind him tightened the reins, "Help us clear out the ogres, the knight's charge can't solve them"
"No problem" Khadgar closed his eyes and began to concentrate, and the sky above them began to darken. Within a minute, the sky that had been clear began to be covered with ominous black clouds. Sudden dark clouds swirled around Khadgar, and the mage's white hair fluttered. Lightning flashed across the sky, and then a brilliant bolt of lightning struck the ogre's head, one after the other. Faced with a sudden blow, the ogre flinched
"Throw the cotton wool in the road and stop the tribe!" Qiuchen shouted to the soldiers who were preparing in the rear, "Send a signal, tell Tulayan to start moving!" Knights! Come with me! ”
