Chapter 32: War
The hills of Hillsbrad are reddened with blood.
The Knights of the Silver Hand shimmered with brilliant light, led by the Duke of Lothar, frantically chiseled through the orc formation, and the snow-white hooves of the horses set off a rain of blood again and again.
Orc Great Chief Orgrim. The hammer of destruction was like a madness, wielding a war hammer and leading the orc patriarchs to wreak havoc among the Alliance soldiers, and everywhere they passed, corpses were strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood flowed.
The flames of the High Elves poured down on the heads of the orc warlocks, reaping the lives of their opponents like cannons.
The dying warlocks drew the final madness, and the hellfires swept across the sky with green flames, descending on the battlefield like the end of the world.
Killing, death, green flames, merciless swords, struggles, wails, the last screams of life, on the hills of Hillsbrad, the forces of the Horde and the Union are intertwined, and at every moment someone falls, and every moment someone closes their eyes forever.
grinding the flesh and blood of both sides, but the tide of the battle is gradually beginning to tilt in favor of the alliance.
The light of the newly built Knights of the Silver Hand was so powerful that they rampaged across the battlefield like the strongest tanks, and although from time to time some knights were dismounted by orc warriors and killed on the spot, they stubbornly divided the orc defenses little by little, and the Terran soldiers began to surround the orc army.
However, the warlocks that the orcs relied on in the past were devastated and struck down, and under the joint efforts of the mages of the human race and the elven race, they were suppressed so that they could not raise their heads, and both they and the demons they summoned were washed in blood. There was no way to provide any long-range assistance to the orcs, allowing the elven marchers to harvest the orcs' heads at will.
Although a few warlocks eventually summoned a few Hellfires. It made the battle a little chaotic, but it couldn't make any waves under the siege of the Terran warriors. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if the orcs don't make changes, defeat is already doomed.
A hammer smashed away the Terran warrior next to him, the Great Chief of the Orc Tribe, Ogrim. The Hammer of Destruction looked at the falling orc warriors around him, gritted his teeth, and raised his head to let out a loud roar, which was the signal they had agreed to before.
At the same time, Gul'dan, the leader of the orc warlocks who was hiding from the elven attacks at the top of the hill, had a twinkle in his eyes. It turned its head to glance at the battle situation down the mountain, and its heart was slightly groaning.
Although it doesn't have much love for its own race and just wants to pursue great power, it seems that the orcs still have some use for it now, and they can't be allowed to be defeated like that.
With his mind set in his mind, Gul'dan immediately glanced at an orc warlock beside him, who suddenly understood, took out something like a signal flare from his bosom, and shot it into the sky. A moment later, half of the sky was dyed green by a sudden burst of green light.
Looking at this dazzling green light, Orgrim and Gul'dan, who were in two places on the battlefield, breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and looked at the Terran warriors around them and smiled faintly.
Ten minutes later, the outermost part of the battlefield. The Terran warriors who were gradually surrounding the orcs were stunned, and the ground under their feet seemed to tremble, and there seemed to be a roar in the distance. Many people subconsciously turned their heads, but were stunned by what they saw.
On the east and west sides of the battlefield, troops were killed at the same time.
The troops to the east were a detachment of cavalry. The knights, whose faces were shrouded in darkness, rode tall warhorses and kept running. The eyes of both knights and horses glowed with blue, and their bodies exuded a cold death breath, like the most terrible nightmare in the human mind.
The troops to the west were tall monsters, carrying huge clubs, salivating in their mouths, and looking at the Terran warriors with naked lust in their eyes, and their sheer size made the whole earth tremble under their feet.
"Death Knight!"
"Ogre!"
Looking at the two teams that were constantly approaching, the battle line of the human race began to stir, many people exclaimed, and the battle intent in their eyes began to waver, after all, whether it is the undead or the man-eating monster, it is not an opponent that people want to face, and the orcs fight, if they die, they will die, but if they fight with the undead and ogres, I am afraid that there will be no peace after death.
The movement on the battlefield was quickly noticed by the Terran commander, and Lothar, after once again cutting through the orc defenses, began to slowly leave the center of the battlefield with the Knights.
"These damn bastards!" Looking at the death knights running not far away, the old man with white hair almost erupted with anger in his eyes, although he didn't see the other party's face clearly, but he was sure that those were his Tongze when he was in Stormwind City, these orcs and beasts, they actually played with the remains of the dead and tarnished their glory!
Taking a deep breath, Lothar said to Tulayan beside him, "Tulayan, you go and send a signal for the dwarf griffin knights to take action, intercept those ogres, and then the others will follow me to destroy these death knights!" ”
"Okay!" Tulayan nodded in response, and said something about the magic device on Guò's body, then glanced at the battle situation behind him, and said with some hesitation: "Then what about these orcs, will you just let them go?" ”
Without the impact of the Knights, I am afraid that the orcs on the battlefield will soon be able to gather together, and at that time, with the strong combat power of the orcs, it will be difficult to destroy them.
Lothar sighed when he heard this, and said a little helplessly: "This is also a helpless thing, if these undead knights and ogres are allowed to hit the battle line, I'm afraid it's not that we can't let go of the orcs, but that the orcs won't let us go, even if they have a big life this time, it's a pity!" ”
Unexpectedly, Tulayan looked a little strange, he didn't know what to think, glanced in one direction, and then reminded in a low voice: "But Lord Commander, it seems that we still have an army to use, as long as they can stop one of the teams for a while, we may be able to wipe out these orcs this time!" ”
Lothar was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Tulayan's gaze, and then smiled, "Shouldn't you be talking about those elven knights?" Forget it, with their strength, I'm afraid they can't stop either side, and we can't let our allies die in vain! ”
"But—!"
Tulayan was anxious when he saw this, maybe this young paladin was born to be a commander, he was far more careful than his nominal commander at this time, just in the process of fighting, he was also distracted and noticed a lot of situations, those elven knights did not seem to be as weak as imagined, on the contrary, in fact, these elven knights were a little stronger, they were in charge of guarding the alliance's long-range troops almost like chopping melons and vegetables to put down the orcs who rushed in front of them, and the knights of the silver hand were not much different, far more powerful than ordinary Terran warriors.
It's a pity that the rest of the time now doesn't allow him to explain to Lothar slowly, only to see the latter wave his hand and directly interrupt Tulayan.
"Nothing, Tulayan, you may have your reasons, but you must know that the greatest role of the elves for us is to support us from a distance, and I don't want any unhappiness between us because of the loss of their warriors, we also need their magical powers."
Taking a deep breath, the blade of the Lothar sword pointed forward sharply and said loudly, "Now let's go and send our former comrades free!" ”
Looking at Lothar, who was rushing towards the Death Knight first, Tulayan could only shake his head and smile bitterly, and rushed forward with him.
Soon the tide of battle changed again.
The Knights of the Silver Hand rushed towards the Death Knights, and the two cavalry that seemed to be natural enemies collided together, and the Holy Light and the Death Qi had a chemical-like reaction, constantly making a loud explosion, and then one after another the knights fell from their horses, and in a short period of time, the Silver Hand suffered greater losses than the previous continuous chiseling, but under the leadership of Lothar, Tulayan, and another leader, Uther, they still left the Death Knights in place, preventing them from storming the Terran battlefield.
On the other side, shortly after receiving the summons from Tulayan, a crisp eagle cry was heard from the rear of the Alliance, and giant birds with eagle heads and lion bodies flew from a distance, their wings covering the sky like dark clouds, and dwarven warriors holding warhammers in their hands.
As soon as these griffin knights arrived at the battlefield, they began to attack the ogre troops, only to see these birds of prey constantly swooping down from the air, and the shining claws grabbed directly towards the ogre's face, and the dwarven warriors on their backs were also very heroic, with the power of lightning in their hands, almost electrocuted the ogre's coke into charcoal, and even more fierce directly opened the ogre's head with a hammer, so that these inflexible ogres suffered a big loss almost at the beginning.
It's just that this kind of brute strength is still above the orcs, and the ogres who are stimulated by the blood are almost all crazy, only to see the huge sticks in their hands constantly waving, hitting the griffins with flying feathers, wailing, and even reaching out directly to grab those griffins that flew over, many griffins were caught off guard and directly dragged down by the ogre, and the dwarf warriors on their backs were torn to pieces by the angry ogres.
For a moment, the ogre's roar and the griffon's chirping were intertwined, but the entire ogre team also stopped under the resistance of the griffin warriors, and could no longer affect the outcome of the battle.
At this time, without the intervention of the silver hand, the orcs on the battlefield gradually gathered together under the command of Orgrim and several orc patriarchs, stabilized their formation, and began to calmly deal with the siege of the Terrans, although the attacks from the elves still brought them a lot of losses, but the remaining Terran warriors seemed to be unable to stop the strong orc warriors anymore. (To be continued......)
