Chapter 100 The Fierce Battle Escalates
"Bolvar Fordragon, has your Kingdom of Stormwind finally stopped hiding its wolfish ambitions?" Garin stood on the Sardo Bridge on the side of the Arathi Highlands, facing the Grand Duke of Stormwind City who commanded Fordragon's army on the opposite side. Val Fordragon sneered.
Although he was born into a noble family, Grand Duke Bolvar Fordragon was not an outright politician, otherwise he would not have become a heroic paladin.
Facing Garin's cynicism, Grand Duke Bolvar Fordragon felt a little guilty in his heart, but he still firmly put the interests of the Kingdom of Stormwind first, so he replied, "King Garin Trollbane, Covenant Taking in the undead is a blasphemy against the living. Archbishop Benedictus launched a holy war in the name of the Holy Light, and as a paladin, I should answer the call of holy war."
"Holy war? How ridiculous, Bolvar Fordragon, do you dare to let Benedictus come here to confront me? Alonsos Faol, the incarnation of the Holy Light, has proven that the Forsaken can be redeemed, even Ashes Messenger Alexandros Mograine has put aside his prejudice against the undead."
The Holy Light Sect and the Kingdom of Lordaeron are the orthodox ones. It can be said that the Holy Light Sect of the Kingdom of Stormwind was originally an affiliate of the Holy Light Sect of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
Neither Archbishop Benedictus of Stormwind nor Grand Duke Bolvar Fordragon could compare to Alonsos Faol and Alexandros Mograine.
"It is useless to say more, King Garin Trollbane, the undead must be purified, in the name of the Holy Light!"
As the conversation between Garlin and Grand Duke Bolvar Fordragon broke down, the battle for the Sardo Bridge began again, this time on an even larger scale than before.
However, the alliance still has a huge advantage in numbers.
After the dwarf mechanized troops from Menethil Port joined, a large number of dwarf artillery and aircraft appeared. The dwarf artillery was not as powerful as the Blackso Company howitzers, but the number was greater, which was enough to reverse the previous situation of being suppressed by firepower.
The dwarves and gnomes driving the aircraft wanted to destroy Hesso's howitzers through aerial missile attacks, but they had just flown over the Sardo Bridge, and an air force unit also flew out from the peak of the Arathi Highlands.
That is the Griffin Knights of the Kingdom of Stromgard.
Falstad Wildhammer, the High Lord of Eagle's Nest Mountain, taught and trained the gryphon knights of the Kingdom of Stromgard without reservation. For more than a year, the lions of the Kingdom of Stromgard were specially trained by the Wildhammer dwarves. The Eagle Knights have successfully graduated.
The Griffin Knights of the Kingdom of Stromgard are at war with the dwarves' aerial aircraft troops. From time to time, the aircraft crashes or the griffins fall down.
"For the alliance, for the glory of the king!"
This time, Grand Duke Bolvar Fordragon personally led the Fordragon Legion to attack. With the leadership of Grand Duke Bolvar Fordragon, the morale of the Fordragon Legion was high.
Facing the alliance's most powerful Fordagon Army, Garin was filled with excitement. He held up Stromkar War Destroyer and shouted impassionedly, "For the Covenant! For Stromgard!"
Slogans throughout the day were shouted by the two human legions on both sides of the Saldo Bridge. They waved the sharp blades in their hands towards their compatriots, just to defend their kingdom.
Thoradin's Legion and Fordagon's Legion are the most powerful legions in the Kingdom of Stromgard and the Kingdom of Stormwind, but they represent the war between the Northern Covenant and the Southern Alliance.
The warriors on both sides quickly blended together and could only be distinguished by their red and blue colors.
Garin also found Bolvar Fordragon, the Grand Duke of Stormwind City, and Stromka slashed at him heavily.
Facing Jialin's attack, Grand Duke Bolvar naturally had to be cautious and quickly raised his shield to block it.
Grand Duke Bolvar Fordragon is a protective paladin and a staunch defender of the Kingdom of Stormwind. His strength is naturally not as good as Garlin who can defeat King Varian, but the protective paladin has strong toughness and defense. , leaving Jialin unable to achieve any results in a short period of time and could only suppress it.
Stromka opens and closes widely, and the quality of being light and easy is really useful when suppressing it. The huge weight makes Grand Duke Bolvar can only grit his teeth and persist. If it were not for the continuous support of the power of the Holy Light, he would not be able to do it. There is no confidence to block Garin's onslaught.
Garin was able to suppress Grand Duke Bolvar, but Thoradin's legion was still inferior to the Fordragon legion of the Alliance's first legion in terms of hard power.
If the battle were to be fought elsewhere, the winner would definitely be the Fordagon Legion.
Here, the Sardo Bridge limited the width of the battle line, making up for the numerical disadvantage of Thoradin's army.
At the same time, behind them is the Arathi Highlands, which gives Thoradin's legions the buff to defend their homeland. They never retreat because their families are behind them, and so is their kingdom.
It was the blessing of the Defend Home buff that allowed Thoradin's legion to reach an unprecedented level of combat effectiveness, and their fighting will became even stronger. With this, the Fordragon legion, which was stronger than them, could not move forward.
Masses of human warriors fell, their blood dripping from the Sardo Bridge into the sea beneath the cliffs below.
While the fierce battle began at the Soldor Bridge, Stormwind City's Admiral Cantrebuli also ordered the Menethil Port Fleet to surround the port of Stromgarde.
The naval fleet of the Kingdom of Stormgarde is still being rebuilt. With the warships purchased from the Blackwater Pirates and the hired sailors, the Kingdom of Stormgarde quickly obtained a fleet, but this fleet could not be compared with the Menethil Port Fleet of Stormwind Admiral Cantrebly in terms of scale and combat effectiveness.
In order to protect the rebuilt Stormwind Kingdom Navy, Garin issued an order that the Stormwind Kingdom Navy should not leave the port of Stromgarde.
The port of Stromgarde has a large number of defensive artillery and towers, which are enough to deter the Menethil Port Navy of Stormwind Admiral Cantrebly from launching an attack.
After knowing that the navy that surrounded the port of Stromgarde was originally from Lordaeron, Princess Calia Menethil of Lordaeron took the initiative to say, "Cantlebury, I understand that you want to join Stormwind, but as a Lordaeron, do you really want to turn your back on the Kingdom of Stromgarde and the Covenant that selflessly helped Lordaeron?"
"Princess Calia, I will never forget that I am a Lordaeron, but I will never forget that Lordaeron is a member of the Alliance. I can never forgive the undead that destroyed our country. Princess Calia, please stand on our side. King Varian Wrynn has promised that Stormwind will help us restore our country like the Kingdom of Lordaeron did 20 years ago." Stormwind Admiral Cantlebury has obviously completely joined Stormwind and the Alliance, and no matter how Calia Menethil persuades her, it is useless.
