Chapter 47: The First Battle of Kalimdor
Kalimdor, which means "land of eternal starlight" in the elven language, was once the only continent in the world of Azeroth.
The continent is centered around the Well of Eternity, and the natives are an ancient race of elves.
The civilization of the elves quickly expanded throughout Kalimdor over time.
Since the elves are not fond of fighting, they have lived in peace and tranquility for tens of thousands of years.
Until that day - the day of judgment comes.
The Elven Queen Azhara and her retinue come into contact with the Dark Titan, Sargeras, the leader of the Burning Legion.
Finally, with the end of the war known as the Ancients, the Well of Eternity exploded, and the continent was divided.
Since then, the world of Azeroth has added the Eastern Kingdoms, Northrend, and Pandaria, plus the original Kalimdor, and together they form the new Azeroth.
The elves who survived the war resettled on the remnants of the lands to the west and retained the name of Kalimdor.
After another 10,000 years, they planted vast forests in the north of the continent, and this huge forest was unmatched not only by Kalimdor, but also by any other place in the entire world of Azeroth.
It is the Gray Valley.
The Ashen Valley surrounds Hyjal, known as the Holy Mountain, on which grows the Night Elves' original World Tree, Nordasil.
To distinguish themselves from the High Elves who left Kalimdor for the Eastern Kingdoms, they referred to themselves as the Night Elves.
The southern part of the Grey Valley is barren.
It was a dry, inhospitable land devoid of forest greenery, and at the same time a place with many inhabitants.
The indigenous inhabitants of the Barrens include minotaurs, centaurs, and harpies.
The Minotaurs and Centaurs have been at war for centuries, and today the Minotaurs are on the verge of extinction.
However, neither the Night Elves, nor the Minotaurs, Centaurs, nor the Harpies knew that they would soon have new guests.
This year, the orc tribe led by Thrall and the human alliance led by the human archmage Gianna Prodmore arrived in Kalimdor.
Thrall, who arrived first, had already dealt with the Minotaur and the Centaur and decided to officially help the Minotaur deal with the Centaur.
On the other hand, under the arrangement of the prophet Medivan, Gianna, Sal, and Tyrande Windwhisperer, who had just awakened from their slumber, met and began a new fate.
However, at this moment, Arthas, the prince of Lordaeron, who was supposed to serve the Lich King and subvert the entire Eastern Kingdom, came to Kalimdor with the soldiers of Quel'Salas and Dalaran, who were supposed to serve the Lich King and subvert the entire Eastern Kingdom, with the strong intervention of Xu Mochao.
A new era has begun!
"This is Kalimdor?"
When the mighty fleet arrived on land, Xu Mochao looked around, a little disappointed.
Compared to the bustling eastern kingdoms, this place is a little too desolate, right?
Barren mountains and wild neighbors or something......
Hearing Xu Mochao's words, the high elves also looked at each other, Sylvanas pondered for a moment and said, "Our ancestors did live on this land before, and it seems that they are not keen on building. ”
Wen Lesa added, "Your Highness, you know, we elves worship nature and never cut down ......."
Xu Mochao shrugged, he really knew this very well.
When he played the game before the crossing, he had already discovered the difference between the four races in terms of logging, and the three races of humans, orcs, and immortals all cut down trees directly, and if they cut down, there would be no more.
Elves are different, as elves of this race can wrap around trees to get wood in a way that doesn't damage the trees.
It's just that the efficiency is a little low, only 5 units at a time.
By the way, the most efficient is the undead, who can collect 20 units at a time, and humans and orcs both have 10 units, but humans can increase the number of vehicles they carry by upgrading their technology.
"Even if that's all - can you explain to me what these guys are all about? Didn't you say that this is the territory of the elves? ”
As Xu Mochao spoke, he pointed to an army that was rushing towards them frantically not far away.
Sylvanas and Winlessa were also surprised to see a large group of troops rushing towards them, and to their surprise, the other party was not an elf.
Nor are they human.
Not even the undead.
"It's ...... Orc tribes? ”
Wen Lesa was a little unsure.
"No, the orc tribe has never had centaurs and harpies, they don't belong to the orcs, and there shouldn't be orcs on this continent!"
"It doesn't matter what he is", Xu Mochao heard the two sisters arguing, waved his hand and said, "Anyway, looking at their appearance, they are not here to welcome us, all the soldiers listen to the order!" ”
"Yes!"
Ouyang Chong was the first to jump out.
It's not easy to finally have a chance to perform!
"It seems that the races on this continent don't seem to welcome us, what do you say?"
"Hit!"
"Hit!"
"Hit!"
"Very good", Xu Mochao was very satisfied with this kind of morale, raised the frost sorrow in his hand and waved forward, "Charge with me!" ”
Xu Mochao gave an order, and everyone pressed on.
This was the first battle in Kalimdor, and Xu Mochao decided to go directly to A.
Real man, do not operate.
"Rush!"
"For Lordaeron!"
"For humanity!"
"For the Alliance!"
The jumbled slogans converged into one sentence: "For Arthas!" ”
"Sister, let's go too, right?"
Wen Lesa on the side was enthusiastic, if she was the only one here, then she would have rushed up with Arthas.
It's a pity that the commander of this elven army is Sylvanas at the moment.
Sylvanas frowned, she originally felt that there was no need to fight this battle, and she could explain things clearly first, but Xu Mochao was the nominal commander of this coalition army.
Lordaeron and Dalaran's troops must have listened to him, even the elven army of Quel'Thalas he led was eager to take the plunge at the moment.
After all, the other party looks too similar to the orcs, and you must know that the enmity between the high elves and the orcs is also as deep as the sea.
Seeing that the vanguard forces of the two sides were about to meet each other, Sylvanas sighed, raised his Quel'Salas Golden Bow and shot an arrow forward: "Divide half of the troops to stay where they are, and the other half of the troops will cooperate with His Royal Highness the Prince to attack!" ”
"Roger!"
"Sister, I'm leaving!"
Wen Lesa said without waiting for Sylvanas to agree, and rushed forward with the wind step, seeing that the direction was straight for Xu Mochao.
Seeing this, Sylvanas shook his head helplessly, and could only lead the other half of the troops to stay where they were, ready to reinforce at any time.
In terms of numbers, the centaurs have an absolute advantage.
Even if their lineup is more neat and the equipment of the troops is more reasonable, Sylvanas still can't help but be a little worried.
But she soon knew that her worries were unnecessary.
