Chapter 250: [Orc's Blood] (1900 Monthly Pass)
On November 18, the incomparably famous Battle of Southsea Town, officially known as the Battle of Hillsbrad Hills, broke out. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Unlike the previous battles between humans and orcs, where all field battles were lost, every large-scale defensive battle was a passive defense, and this time the opponent was successfully lured into a trap and entered this carefully selected battlefield in Nanhai Town, and every Alliance General had an extraordinary sense of excitement.
Intelligence has returned.
The tribal army has assembled on the ship, and according to the course, the target is the town of Nanhai.
There's no way to deceive.
It is impossible for the Naga of Duke to see hundreds of kilometers of wetland coastline without any loopholes, which is beyond the reach of any means in this era.
Not so with the march of the great armies.
It was impossible to hide from anyone, and when a large number of ships were pushed into the sea from the beach, the Union generals knew that a big war was coming.
In a day's time, the orcs will arrive!
Duke slapped the huge map in the command and said loudly:
"This time, the name of the battle is [Orc Blood]!"
Orc blood?
The proud soldiers and fierce generals from the Seven Kingdoms were all fascinated and muttered to themselves.
Soon, an indescribable sense of tremor spread throughout the body, penetrating the deepest depths of the spirit and shaking violently, resonating with the armor on their bodies and the long sword in the scabbard at their waists.
These battle-hardened generals all had a strange feeling, and a magnificent vision seemed to emerge in front of them - countless green-skinned corpses lying on the battlefield burned by the flames. Each corpse was so hideous and cruel, yet their unwilling souls could only continue to vent their anger with roars in the hell of despair.
The name 'Orc Blood' came out of Duke's mouth, and the generals could no longer think of any other name that would be more appropriate for the battle.
Even if this is not the final showdown between the Alliance and the Horde, it is still very exciting to drain the blood of the enemy.
They even felt that because of this designation, the success of the operation was inevitable.
Of course, this is only a momentary illusion.
Not to mention the Stormwind Kingdom* army, which had experienced the defense of Stormwind City, just by seeing with their own eyes that even the corpses of orc laborers had the physique of the strongest human soldiers, the generals of the alliance knew that the road ahead would be extremely difficult.
There is no such thing as a casual victory, and every victory, even with such an advantage, must go through several tribulations of life and death.
The look on their faces quickly changed from excitement to grimness.
But it is undeniable that as a useless warrior in peacetime, hearing such a battle name in the sudden chaotic times will inevitably provoke the indomitable pride that lurks in their bodies.
In their piercing eyes, the divine light was still excited. Nothing excites them more than taking the first step towards a strategic victory before gaining a tactical advantage.
This is a great achievement made by a super-talented deputy commander who seems to be 19 years old, but is actually only 15 years old.
In a sense, they are standing on the shoulders of giants.
"Please make sure that my Haas Mountain Eagle Knights play as a striker!"
"Don't be funny, this is a defensive battle, is your knight going to charge into the sea. ”
"Let my Riptide Mountain Infantry Regiment come. ”
Each of the generals enthusiastically recommended himself to Duke.
Originally, the arrangement of the army was supposed to be done by the commander-in-chief of Lothar. However, Lothar temporarily handed over the command of the army to Duke on the grounds that "no one knows the defense line of Nanhai Town better than Duke himself, and it is best to hand it over to him".
Duke is up to the task!
He knew very well that this would most likely be a turning point between the Alliance and the Horde, and that every legion that went out could be famous.
Duke was extremely cautious. As a traverser, he knew what the Horde had to be. Even if the tribe has changed a lot, I am afraid that those few cards on 'history' will not be able to escape.
"First of all, Admiral Prodmoor. Duke called out the ranks.
"In. "Rarely, King Daylin Prodmore is a stand.
"Except for the Fourth Fleet, which cruises in the waters off the western beaches, all fleets set up pocket formations in the waters off Nanhai Town. All light transports were put over, and large transports covered with iron sheets had to be let go by 60% before receiving a signal. After receiving the signal, strangle with all your might at all costs. ”
"No problem. "Admiral Dai Lin is arrogant.
Duke turned his head and swept the Coalition generals from left to right, finally fixing his gaze on Mograini and Abidis.
"General Mograine, General Abydis, can I trust your Scarlet Crusaders?"
"The Scarlet Crusaders will not retreat!" Mograine roared domineeringly.
On this face that was obviously much younger, Duke seemed to see the heroic posture of the later generations when he wielded the domineering demigod weapon [Ash Bringer] to slash the enemy.
Duke drew a line on the map: "From the western hill of Nanhai Town, all the way to the west of the five-kilometer range, it belongs to your legion. I ask you to hold on to the hill, there is no signal, and no counter-charge is prohibited. ”
"Understood. ”
In this day and age, the legion was a very general concept. A smaller corps can have only five or six thousand men. Larger, like Mograine's Scarlet Crusade, numbered nearly 30,000.
The current Scarlet Crusaders are far less crazy and twisted than later generations. With excellent discipline and high morale, it is definitely the essence of the Lordaeron army!
Duke sent them as the main force of defense, and King Terenus, who had been silent all this time, also had a smug look on his face.
Next, Duke sets his sights on King Lane.
"Admiral Wryon. "Duke is absolutely weird, but in order to maintain the military system of the Alliance, it must be so.
"Yes!" Ryan, in the golden armor, was equally eager to prove himself.
"You and General Simos lead the Griffons and the 1st and 2nd Infantry Regiments of Stormwind to the hills east of the town to the end of the eastern coast. ”
"Yes. "Seriously, Ryan was a little disappointed. It sounds like Mograini, but on both sides of Nanhai Town, one left and one right. In fact, the Stormwind Kingdom has taken advantage of the geographical advantage. There is also a relatively turbulent river to the east of Nanhai Town, and if you attack it in the mountains, it will be tantamount to having an extra moat.
Ryan also knew that Duke was not only letting him attack, but also preserving the vitality of the Stormwind Kingdom. With the big picture in mind, this is already the safest arrangement. Ryan didn't say anything either.
"Commander-in-Chief Lothar, you lead all your cavalry and prepare to charge along the appointed route, and drive all the enemies who enter the town at that time to the sea to feed the fish. ”
"No problem. "Lothar was also excited. (To be continued.) )
