Chapter 622 Attack on Fenris Island
The war strategy adopted by the coalition forces against Caer Darrow and the Underdark was slow but steady.
The big deal in the Underdark is that anyone can dig holes better than anyone else. After all, there are monsters such as nerubians as the main body, and there is no shortage of civil engineering technicians and excellent coolies.
But Kaer Darrow will not be able to do it. Cursed wizards and skeleton ghouls are not materials for civil construction. Under the background of long-term siege, even the common tricks of undead soldiers such as explosive soldiers cannot be used, and they can only walk Elite route.
The undead system wants to be sharpened, mainly because of the greater demand for fel energy and dark power.
Although Caer Dallon has military reserves, he can sit back and eat, and sooner or later there will be problems.
There was a time within the Scourge to consider whether to dig a tunnel with the Underdark and Caer Darrow.
Later, when it comes to calculating the engineering, let’s forget it. Even if we don’t consider geological issues, we only talk about the straight-line distance, which is calculated in hundreds of kilometers. For such a long tunnel, even if the magic of the high magic era can turn the rock formation into tofu and make it easy to dig, 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.
Kaer Darrow was besieged, and the elves even used an arcane energy field to prevent the situation of Kaer Darrow and its surroundings from being seen from the outside world.
Kel'Thuzad even used the teleportation array to send messages. I dare not use it frequently, for fear of being discovered by the detection devices of the elves.
This allowed Malganis to take advantage of the loophole.
Mal'Ganis secretly confuses and controls the messenger, and at the same time takes advantage of Kel'Thuzad's unconditional obedience to the Lich King's orders, conveying fake Lich King's secret orders to him, allowing him to consume mana reserves regardless of cost, and use the teleportation array to deliver them. A group of elite bone shooters and cursed wizards were formed.
The result was a crushing defeat. After the battle formation was broken, they were hunted down again, and none of the ten managed to escape back to the Underdark Region.
The Lich King hates it!
Behind this hatred, there is also mixed with the anger of failure in the mental game.
It knows that the fearful demon kings steal technology from people, but for the sake of the great cause, it endures it.
This time Malganis jumped out and offered to take a military action to support the landing of the Southern Expedition Fleet. It didn't object, but was happy to see it succeed.
Dreadlords not only used their enchantment control ability on foreign enemies,
The same is not soft on one's own camp.
As far as the Lich King knows, some nerubians, some trolls, and some people from the Cult of the Damned have all been controlled by the Dreadlord.
The Dread Demon King is willing to let the combat power of their private army attract the firepower of the coalition army. Even if they lose, the Lich King will not feel too distressed.
Unexpectedly, in the end, it still failed to count the Dread Demon King. The firepower to attract the coalition forces is true, but it is the undead line that it attaches the most importance to as cannon fodder.
In the undead category, the Dreadlord did not use penetration control.
Low-level puppets don't take the trick of bewitching and controlling.
Senior undead officers, such as liches and death knights, are bound by the power of the soul contract and supervised by its powerful spiritual power, so they cannot be penetrated.
The Lich King also reminded Kel'Thuzad (the Lich) to be vigilant enough to the Dreadlord. The Lich King said: "The Dreadlords are not of one mind with us. For people like you, if they can't win over, they will We will try to weaken it.”
As a result, Kel'Thuzad was successfully stabbed.
This was Kel'Thuzad's failure, as well as its own.
I have suffered a lot, but I can't even punish severely. I can only use "Kail Dallon's persistence in this way has a great negative impact, and the deception, self-assertion, etc. behind his behavior are very unprofessional ...' Such rhetoric, reprimand a few words.
If Kane knew these stories, he would probably repeat the old stories. He pointed out in the chat with Onyxia before: 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 like to show off. It is difficult for such a team to have a real Cooperate.
Onyxia couldn't refute this. The four immediate family members of her family all disliked each other, and each played their own way. If it weren't for this, why would an artifact like the Dragon Soul play bombs?
It is said that the enemy is one's own mirror. Since Kane knows that the biggest drawback of the chaotic and evil camp is selfishness, he pays great attention to this aspect.
Especially before it has developed to the extent of conquering the world, we must learn to trust and cooperate.
But he has suffered a lot from this, so even if he cooperates, he always emphasizes letting others take care of the overall situation.
Or like now, without damaging one's own fundamentals, decentralize and let capable people do things.
Windsor's character and ability are good, and he doesn't have the problem of Uther and his like cherishing their reputation. He is more at ease in entrusting the copper puppet team to such a person to command.
As for himself, he naturally wanted to focus on solving the geological weapons of the Scourge.
This weapon with divine characteristics (unreasonable) is both disgusting and an out-and-out threat. However, it is also very urgent for the Scourge to land at the Holy Light Monastery. Now that Wen Desor is leading the army, he can easily explain it.
And he also earned extra favors from the Stormwind Kingdom. After all, he used an expensive battle group to verify a marshal for the Stormwind Kingdom, and further harmonized the relationship between the three countries.
Windsor also took the opportunity to achieve his goal of going north this time.
There are different opinions from the outside world, but they will all point to one point in the end, that is, Windsor and Prince Trollbane have a very close relationship. Otherwise, Prince Garin would nominate a military envoy sent by Stormwind City to the Kingdom of Lordaeron. Woolen cloth?
In any case, Windsor is now the one who holds the power, and behind him is likely to be His Royal Highness Prince Thorbane who has the new nickname of 'Miracle Garin'. At the moment when this larger and more violent war is about to break out, the powerful will inevitably surround him, and Windsor will immediately become hot.
Indeed, Windsor was on fire, but at the same time he was very busy. But he does have the style of a general and the appearance of a marshal, and he handles these trivial chores one by one with a clear sense of clinging.
A real marshal is at least a qualified politician. After all, the enemies the Marshal faced were not only from the enemy...
When the Copper Puppet Corps marched into the Tirisfal region, the Falken Vanguard had already built a strong camp in the wilderness north of the clear water lake.
Although the Falken Vanguard Army does not have the perverted military construction capabilities like the Volunteer Army, it still has a complete system and equipment. The arrival of their engineer battalion has greatly accelerated the progress of the Lordaeron Defense Forces that originally built camps there. construction speed.
And its military capacity at its peak, strict military discipline, and a batch of high-quality supplies that followed also effectively boosted the morale of the coalition forces on this cold winter day.
The Lich King originally planned to let Tyrannus launch an attack on the King City of Lordaeron as soon as Falcon's Vanguard Army settled down, but Wen De Sole led the troops to the King City by coincidence. west.
Whether it is the Lich King or the officers and soldiers of Tyrannus, they have been cast a psychological shadow by the copper puppets, especially from the perspective of those natural disaster officers and soldiers who participated in the night battle, the copper puppets are the real undead army, destroyed Thousands of abominations, but not a single corpse left on the battlefield, and the number has always been that many.
The copper puppets also let the Scourge Corps members taste the hopelessness of being unable to kill or finish killing. As for the bravery and toughness of the opponent, I'm sorry, but the brass puppets 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 to pieces by the remaining efforts of both sides.
Therefore, the natural disaster officers and soldiers of Tyrannus can only imagine the horror of the copper puppet's combat power. Thousands of abominations on their own side have filled the super meat grinder, enough for them to figure it out. If not, clean up the cut wounds on the corpses brought back from the battlefield, so that they can taste how terrifying the copper puppet's slashing and slashing attacks are.
Therefore, very tacitly, the plan to raid the Royal City lagged behind. The new plan is that the copper puppet is a super heavy infantry, and the coalition forces will inevitably entrust it with the heavy task of attacking the Holy Light Monastery. Launch a raid. The copper puppets are strong, and their charge on the battlefield is not bad, but their ability to travel long distances is mediocre, and they will not be able to return to the defense of the king city in time, which is convenient for this to make a beautiful article.
The Lich King and their conjectures are relatively accurate. Terenas, Uther and other bigwigs who can decide the deployment of the coalition army have always been inclined to use it to attack the fortifications after learning that the copper puppets have joined the coalition army sequence.
As for the super-heavy armor on the copper puppet, which is calculated in tons, it is no one but me to attack the fortifications. Is there a more suitable goal-scoring fighter than them?
Windsor also felt that if it was the copper puppet attacking the fortress, he was still very sure that he could conquer the Holy Light Monastery in one fell swoop. In particular, he still has a few large bombs specially used to destroy the city. He doesn't think the walls of the monastery can withstand the blast of such bombs.
Therefore, when the copper puppet battle group marched to the Brill area, they were warmly welcomed by the coalition forces. They greeted them from heaven and earth, and at the same time, many troops came to escort them. Windsor seemed to be an international superstar. Shouting and embracing, it's so beautiful.
At the same time, a team that surprised many took the stage and performed well from the start.
Clover Guild.
This mercenary-like organization has spread its tentacles all over most areas of Azeroth where intelligent creatures are active.
Usually, because it is too scattered, many people ignore its overall hugeness.
This time Kane's volunteer army was frustrated in the Silver Pine Forest, and could no longer use the modern army to beat monsters and monsters, so he thought of this force.
And this force had been secretly prepared when the Volunteer Army dispatched troops, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was ready for death.
Now, Kane saw that the copper puppet did not attract the strike force of the Scourge, so he decided to take the initiative to attack, and first helped the Kingdom of Lordaeron, which was short on troops, to get Fenris Island, the water source of the royal city.
Therefore, the troops of the Clover Guild suddenly appeared on the north shore of Lordamere Lake, and launched a strong attack on the magic-powered hovercraft.
The long-range troops have all collapsed under this ferocious attack, and the remaining ghouls and skeleton shooters fled backwards.
The officers of the Scourge made the right choice at this time. Instead of ordering the formation to break up to let the routed troops pass, he ordered the guards to cut and kill anyone who dared to rush to the position.
This move temporarily saved the right wing of the Scourge from collapsing immediately due to the impact of the defeated troops.
But the Clover Knights had an overwhelming advantage in tactics, technology, and equipment. Although the Scourge resisted with all their strength, under the overwhelming attack of the knights, their front line was still in jeopardy.
On the right, something similar happened. Under the charge of the red-eyed dark knight, the long-range troops were also quickly defeated. However, the number of knights here is not as many as the left wing. The knights and the infantry of the Scourge Army were entangled with each other, and the killing was indistinguishable. ()
