Chapter 622: Assault on Fenris Island
The Coalition's strategy of warfare against Keldaron and the Shadows was slow, but also steady.
The dark area is more likely to dig holes than anyone else, after all, it is dominated by monsters such as spider demons, and there is no shortage of civil engineers and excellent coolies.
But Keldaron is not done, cursed wizards, skeleton ghouls, are not materials for civil construction, in the context of a long-term siege, even the common trick of the undead system such as exploding soldiers can not afford to play, and can only take the route of elite soldiers.
The undead want to be refined, and the main demand for evil energy and dark power is greater.
Although Keldaron has military reserves, he can sit back and eat, and sooner or later there will be problems.
At one point, the Scourge considered digging the Strip along with the Underworld and the tunnels of Keldaron.
Later, when the project was calculated, it was better to forget it, even if the geological problem was not considered, only the straight-line distance was calculated in 100 kilometers. Such a long tunnel, even if the magic of the High Magic Era can make the rock formation as easy to dig as tofu slag, the amount of construction is still too large.
The final solution is the teleportation array, which consumes a lot of money and is generally not activated.
Keldaron was besieged, and the elves even used an arcane energy force field to keep the situation in and around Keldaron out of the way from the outside world.
Even when Kel'thugad transmits messages, he asks the messenger to use a teleportation array. I don't dare to use it frequently, for fear of being discovered by the elves' detection devices.
This allowed Malganis to take advantage of the loophole.
Marganis secretly confuses the courier, and at the same time takes advantage of Kel'thugad's unconditional obedience to the Lich King's orders, conveys a fake Lich King's secret order to him, allowing him to consume mana storage at any cost, and uses the teleportation array to send a group of elite bone archers and cursed wizards.
As a result, he was defeated, and after the battle formation was broken, he was chased and killed, and finally managed to escape back to the dark region.
The Lich King hates!
Behind this hatred, there is also the annoyance and anger of the failure of the scheming.
The Dreadlords steal people and technology, it knows, but for the sake of the great cause, it endures.
This time, Marganis jumped out and offered to take the initiative to plan for the landing of the southern expeditionary fleet with a military operation, and it did not oppose it, but was happy to see it happen.
The Dreadlords not only use their confusion control abilities against foreign enemies, but they are also unkind to their own faction.
As far as the Lich King knows, some spider demons, some trolls, and some members of the Cursed Sect have all been mastered by the Dreadlord.
The Dreadlord is willing to let the combat power of this private army, which is actually their private army, attract the firepower of the coalition forces, and even if it is lost, the Lich King will not be too distressed.
Unexpectedly, in the end, he still failed to calculate the Dreaddemon King, and it was true that he attracted the firepower of the coalition forces, but what really went up to be cannon fodder was the immortal series that it valued the most.
The immortal system, the Dread Demon King did not send infiltration control.
Low-level puppets don't eat the trick and control.
High-ranking undead officers, such as the Lich and the Death Knight, are bound by the power of the Soul Pact and supervised by its powerful psychic power, which is also incapacitated.
The Lich King also reminded the K'Il'Sugargard Lich to be vigilant against the Dreadlord, and the Lich King said, "The Dreadlords are not of the same mind as us, and if they can't win them over like you, they will find a way to weaken them." ”
As a result, Kel'thugad was successfully stabbed.
This is the defeat of Kel'thugad, and it is also it.
suffered a loss, but he couldn't even punish him severely, so he could only reprimand a few words with the argument that 'Keldaron's persistence in doing this has a great negative impact, and the deception, self-assertion, etc. represented behind his behavior is very unprofessional, ...... a few words.
If Kane had known these stories, he would probably have rehashed them. He pointed out in his casual conversation with Onexia that the biggest problem with the chaotic evil camp is selfishness, they don't want to be restrained, they all want to be free, and they all love to behave, and it is difficult for such a team to have real cooperation.
Onexia can't refute this, the four immediate family members of her family, everyone looks at each other and plays their own games, if not, how can an artifact like the dragon's soul be fried?
It is said that the enemy is his own mirror, and since Kane knows that the biggest drawback of the chaotic evil camp is selfishness, he pays attention to this aspect of the problem.
Especially before it has developed to the extent of dominating the world, you must learn to trust and cooperate.
But he has suffered a big loss in this, so even if he cooperates, he always emphasizes letting others take care of the overall situation.
Or like now, on the premise of not harming one's own fundamentals, let capable people do things.
Wendthor's character and ability are good, and he doesn't have the problem of cherishing the reputation of Uther and his ilk, so he is still more relieved to hand over the Copper Puppet Team to such a person to command.
And he himself, naturally, wants to focus on solving the geological weapons of the Scourge Legion.
This weapon with divine characteristics is not only disgusting, but also an out-and-out threat. But the landing of the Scourge Legion at the Holy Light Monastery is also very urgent, and now that Wendthor is leading the troops to the battle, he will be able to explain.
And he also earned the favor of the Stormwind Kingdom, after all, he used an expensive war group to verify a marshal for the Stormwind Kingdom, and further harmonized the relationship between the three kingdoms.
Wendsol's purpose of going north this time also took the opportunity to achieve.
The outside world now has different opinions, but in the end, they will all point to one point, that is, Wendthor and Prince Thorbain have a great relationship, otherwise Prince Garin will order a general, how could he order a military attache envoy sent by Stormwind City to the Kingdom of Lordaeron?
In any case, Wendthor is now the one who holds the power, and it is likely that His Royal Highness Prince Thor Bain, who has the new nickname 'Miracle Garin', stands behind him. At this moment when a larger, more violent war is about to break out, there will inevitably be a powerful person surrounding it, and Wendthor will soon become hot.
Indeed, Wendthor was on fire, and at the same time he was busy. But he does have the style of a general and a marshal, and he dealt with these trivial and obviously clinging chores one by one.
A real marshal is, at the very least, a qualified politician. After all, the enemy that the marshal faced was not only from the enemy......
By the time the Bronze Golems marched into the Tirisfa region, the Falken Vanguard had already built a strong camp in the wilderness north of Lake Clearwater.
Although the Falken Vanguard Army did not have the perverted military construction capacity of the Volunteer Army, it also had a complete relevant structure and equipment, and the arrival of their engineer battalion greatly accelerated the construction of the Lordaeron Defense Army, which had originally built a camp there.
And its prosperous military appearance, strict military discipline, and the ensuing batch of high-quality supplies also effectively improved the morale of the coalition army in this cold winter.
The Lich King had planned to have the Tyranus launch an attack on the royal city of Lordaeron as soon as the vanguard of the Falken army had settled, but Wendthor coincidentally led his troops to the west of the royal city.
Whether it is the Lich King or the officers and soldiers of the Tyranus Division, they have all been psychologically shadowed by the Copper Golem, especially from the perspective of those Scourge officers and soldiers who participated in the night battle, the Bronze Golem is the real undead legion, destroying thousands of abominations, but not leaving a single corpse on the battlefield, and there are always so many of them.
The copper puppet also made the top and bottom of the Scourge Legion taste the sense of despair that they couldn't be killed and killed. As for the other party's bravery and toughness, I'm sorry, the copper puppet and the abomination fight, other arms are not qualified to participate at all, and if they dare to enter that battlefield, they will be crushed into slag by the remaining strength of the two sides.
Therefore, the natural disaster officers and soldiers of the Tyranus Department can only imagine the horror of the copper puppet's combat power, and thousands of hatreds on their side have filled up the super meat grinder, which is enough for them to figure it out. If not, cleaning up the slashes on the corpses pulled back from the battlefield can give them a taste of how terrifying the copper puppet's slashing and slashing is.
So, it was very tacit that the plan for the raid on the royal city was lagging behind, and the new plan was that the Copper Puppet was a super heavy infantry, and the coalition forces would inevitably entrust it with the important task of attacking the Holy Light Monastery, and then launch a surprise attack when the ministry operated to the mountainous area where the monastery was located. The copper puppets are strong, and the battlefield charge is not bad, but the ability to rush to the long distance is average, and they will not be able to return to the royal city in time to make a splendid article here.
The Lich King's speculation is still relatively accurate, and the bigwigs who can decide the deployment of the coalition such as Terenus and Uther have been inclined to attack the alliance when they learn that the bronze golem has joined the coalition sequence.
As for the overweight armor on the copper puppet's body, which is calculated in tons, the attack is all self-defeating. Could there be a more suitable goal-scorer than them?
Wendsol also felt that if it was a copper puppet, he would still be very sure to conquer the Holy Light Monastery in one fell swoop. In particular, he had several large bombs in his hands that were specially used to break the city, and he did not think that the walls of the monastery could withstand the explosion of such bombs.
As a result, when the Copper Puppet War Group marched to the area of Brill, it was warmly welcomed by the coalition forces, from heaven to earth, to welcome them, and at the same time to escort them, there were many troops who came to escort them.
At the same time, a unit that surprised many people took the stage and performed well as soon as it appeared.
Clover Guild.
This mercenary organization has spread its reach to most of the areas of Azeroth where sapient beings are active.
Usually, it is so scattered that many people ignore the sheer size of the whole.
This time, Kane's volunteer army was frustrated in the Silver Pine Forest and could no longer use modern troops to fight cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, so he thought of this force.
And this force was secretly prepared when the Volunteer Army sent troops, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is waiting for the end.
Now, seeing that the Bronze Golem did not draw out the strike force of the Scourge Legion, Kane decided to take the initiative and first help the overstretched Lordaeron Kingdom to deal with Fenris Island, the water source of the royal city.
As a result, the forces of the Clover Guild suddenly appeared on the north shore of Lake Lordamere and launched a strong attack through the magic power hovercraft.
The ranged forces had all collapsed under this ferocious onslaught, and the remaining ghouls and skeleton shooters fled backwards.
The officers of the Scourge Army made the right choice at this time. Instead of ordering the formation to split up and let the defeated troops pass, he ordered the guards to cut down all those who dared to rush to the position.
This move temporarily saved the right flank of the Scourge from immediately crumbling due to the onslaught of the defeated army.
However, the Clover Knights had an overwhelming advantage in tactics and technology, as well as equipment, and although the Scourge tried their best to resist, their battle line was still precarious under the overwhelming attacks of the Knights.
On the right wing, something similar happened. Under the charge of the red-eyed Dark Knight, the ranged units were quickly routed. However, there were not as many knights here as there were on the left flank, and the knights were entangled with the infantry of the Scourge Army, and the killing was inseparable.
