Chapter 162: The children of Warcraft are full of strange ambitions, and they don't love red makeup and arms
While Carlos was recuperating in the Quel'Thalas region far north of Lordaeron, licking the wounds of war and preparing for Zukin's more frantic attack, Lothar in the Hillbride war zone was dealing with a wave of stronger attacks from the orc horde led by Orgrim.
"Too passive, marshal. We have nearly three times the enemy's forces, but we are too passive to defend in all directions. Uther stood in front of the map, his face resentful.
"Uther, don't let anger get carried away, our purpose is to defend our homeland, and the second is to exterminate the orcs, don't get it wrong. Lothar's calm voice was full of confidence, always so convincing.
"But Lord Marshal, it seems very abnormal for the orcs to attack so frantically regardless of damage, for some time now, the battle loss ratio between the alliance and the tribe has gradually decreased, and it has been less than one to two, and the tribe's actions are unreasonable. Saidan Dasohan questioned the recent fighting from the other side.
"If it's not normal, it means that the tribe has a conspiracy. No matter how crazy they are, if they can't break through our defenses, they will end up trapped in the hills and mountains of Hilbride. My children, think about it, how many troops have been lost in the sea by the orcs who have collapsed into the sea, and this year's sea fish can be fattened. If the orcs want to retreat, then none of them want to leave!" Anduin Lothar clapped his hands, "Alright, don't be intimidated by temporary difficulties, time is on our side, every moment, the alliance is getting stronger, every day, the horde is weakening. As long as we don't make mistakes, the final victory will be ours after all. ”
"By the way, Lord Marshal, there is a promotion application from the Kingdom of Alterac, and ten days ago, Alterac's army surrounded and annihilated an orc of about 2,000 men in the Talummere region. Grand Duke Alex Barov wants the alliance to be promoted to thirteen commanders. ”
After Tulayan went north, Gavin Rade temporarily assumed the post of adjutant of Lothar, and took advantage of the break in the meeting to hastened to report the matter to Marshal Lothar.
"The orcs of the tribe who encircled and annihilated two thousand people need to be promoted to thirteen commanders!"
Lothar was stunned by Alex Barov's lion's mouth, and you Alterac himself promoted the officers below the rank of major. Majors and above are all commanders and fighters in the alliance, and there are no soldiers to bring you when you are promoted, where are you playing?
"Lord Lothar, Alterac has used nearly 20,000 troops and seven corps to encircle and annihilate this time. ”
Seeing Lothar's unhappy face, Gavinrad quickly explained.
"Hah, 20,000 people? If I'm not mistaken, our Majesty Carlos still has two legions to fight trolls in Stratholme, and Alterac can still cobble together seven legions!
No wonder Lothar was so sarcastic. As a small country and a war-stricken area, even if the Kingdom of Alterac enters a state of all-out war and recruits 30,000 strong men, it is enough for the women of the seventh layer of the country to stay alive and widowed.
"Actually, yes. Gavinrad replied.
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire conference room fell silent.
"Tell me about it. Lothar put away her mocking look and asked seriously.
"His Excellency Grand Duke Alex has launched a call for female labor, gathering women during the slack period to transport supplies. Build an offensive and send all the strong men who can line up on the battlefield. As a matter of fact. The battle lasted for a short time, and according to the battle report, the kingdom of Alterac fought a siege battle with ten times the enemy's strength, and the battle ended in just three hours. The battle loss ratio was as high as 1 to 5, and the Alterac side suffered less than 400 casualties. ”
Gavinrad finished speaking, and pulled out a document from the file bag he was carrying. Give it to Lothar.
"Next time, show me the battle report before expressing your opinion, and don't let my subjective consciousness be influenced by you. ”
Lothar looked bland and nodded Gavinrad.
"Yes, Marshal, I'm sorry. ”
Soon, Lothar finished reading the documents. Pass the file to someone else.
"Gavin Rad, you've got this done. The guys in Alterac are all good, and I apologize to them for the faux pas. ”
With a military campaign of 20,000 men, it can be said that Alex Barov killed those 2,000 orcs with supplies heavier than the orcs, and all Alterac wanted was thirteen promotion letters from the Alliance, such an act should not be ridiculed.
"It seems that the defense of the Alterac Pass can be relieved for the time being, but the defense of the Gilneth and Soladin Walls, how should we deal with it, Lord Marshal. Uther touched his chin, the long war had turned his smooth, shiny beard like a weed.
"The wall of Soladin cannot be broken from the north, unless Biglas Bertonn surrenders. ”
"But Biglas couldn't have surrendered. ”
"So it is impossible for the wall of Soradin to be broken. ”
The other generals argued, and finally agreed that there was no problem with the defense of Soradin's Wall.
Lothar couldn't help but nodded, after all, it is the legacy of Soladin the Great, the witness of the glory of the Alaso Empire, the unbreakable wall - the wall of Soladin!
Back then, when Carlos, who was still a little broken child, was visiting Nanhai Town, he went to the Wall of Soladin to admire this historical relic, but he didn't find it for a long time.
"Here it is. ”
When the locals told Carlos that, Carlos looked like are you kidding me?
As a result, back in Southsea Town, Alex, who had finished checking the taxes, learned about it and took Carlos to the main entrance of the Wall of Soradin.
Looking at the formidable walls and the buildings that blended in with the mountains, Carlos had the illusion of tears in his eyes.
"Since the War of the Ancient Trolls, mankind has been building this Great Wall, knowing that it was completed six hundred years ago during the time of Soladin the Great, and it took two thousand years to build, the splendor of the Arathso Empire, the building that is older than our home in Keldarronburg, this is the Wall of Soladin. It can be said that it is with this barrier that human beings can safely go north to pioneer the land. Because behind the wall is the birthplace of mankind, a home that will never fall. ”
Young Carlos looked at the wall that almost covered the sky, reached out and stroked the heavy bluestone bricks, and let out a long sigh.
It's all a lie in the game.
Buildings that are more majestic than the Great Wall of Desperation in A Song of Ice and Fire are what they are in the game!
In the era before the rise of magic, how could the defense line built by the people of the Arathor Empire with simple tools and manpower and animal power take a full two thousand years to build.
"Father, let's go. ”
"Why don't you go in and have a look? The name of our Barov family is enough for the defenders of Fort Riptide to let us go up and have a look. ”
"No, that's enough. ”
"Then let's go. (To be continued......)
