Warcraft Eternal Tree
Chapter 279 The main force was frustrated (third update)
After the vanguard of the Severn Kingdom was destroyed and the night elves' troops fighting out of the city had returned to the Brak Fortress, the messenger who did not wait until the death of the vanguard came to this place with the order of Severn IX.
However, the messenger could not find the target of his order. All he could see was a mess of meat and broken limbs. Various mutton kebab-style deaths, coke-style deaths, minced meat-style deaths and waist-cutting deaths made this soldier who had also experienced some war scenes almost vomit.
Next, he returned the way he came with a panicked look on his face. The vanguard officer really wanted to take the lead. He relied on the strength of the vanguard troops to be generally better than other troops and carried out a rapid march, leaving other troops too far behind.
It was so far away that when the vanguard was eliminated, the following Severn Kingdom army did not notice it. It was not until the messenger came back that everyone knew that the 100,000 vanguard had been destroyed in just half a magic hour.
This messenger is also lucky. Although the hippogryph knight flying high in the sky discovered him, Yu Fei originally wanted to convey the situation here to the troops behind the Severn Kingdom to see their reaction. Therefore, the messenger was not turned into the same corpse on the ground by the hippogryph knight.
Everyone who heard the news of the destruction of the vanguard, including King Severn IX, felt heavy, and the commanders of the various branches cursed the vanguard officer in their hearts. The elite soldiers of the vanguard were drawn from these branches, but now they are all gone.
Sitting in a luxurious royal chariot pulled by four dragon camels, Severn IX said with a worried look to the white-bearded old man sitting on the other side of the chariot: "Master Pollini, it looks like The so-called night elves who occupied Brak Fortress were really strong. Our elite 100,000 vanguard troops were wiped out so easily. "
Sighing, King Severn IX said depressedly: "I suddenly have an ominous premonition. Could it be that my Kingdom of Severn will be destroyed in the hands of the night elves?"
The white-bearded old man, the Master Pollini in the mouth of Severn IX, smiled slightly. "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Your Majesty will use all the strength of the country to lead the expedition in person, and there will definitely be a good result. What's more, since Your Majesty asked me to accompany the army, he naturally wants to do it when necessary."
Blinking at Severn IX, Master Pollini continued: "Of course he wants me to lead the royal mage group to use that move when necessary. In this case, there will definitely be no problem. "
Severn IX was also refreshed when he heard Master Pollini's relief. "Yes, if it doesn't work, we will use that move. Although it will destroy the Brak Fortress, if we win this battle, there will be no need for the Brak Fortress to exist."
As he spoke, Severn IX had already fallen into the fantasy of defeating the night elves and then using the power of victory to invade the small countries in the west to fulfill his previous ambition. Master Pollini closed his eyes silently and meditated, and the king's chariot became quiet for a while.
But after a while, Severn IX recovered from his reverie and called the guards waiting outside the carriage to convey his orders.
Severn IX's strategy was the stupidest but also the most effective. With the huge number of troops assembled, Severn IX was prepared to sacrifice the lives of some soldiers in an attempt to capture the Brac Fortress.
No matter how powerful the night elves' long-range troops are, and no matter how far they shoot, I don't believe that a million troops can't defeat them. Even if a million pigs stand there and let the enemy shoot them, they probably won’t be able to kill them even if they are soft-handed, right? With the night elves currently numbering less than 30,000 in Brak Fortress, even though the vanguard has been destroyed, Severn IX still did not take the enemy seriously.
What he was struggling with at the moment was whether or not he should use "that move". Use it, it's a pity that a good fortress disappeared like this. If not, a large number of Severn Kingdom's troops would probably die.
After weighing several times, Severn IX finally made up his mind. The kingdom and army are the guarantee of the kingdom's strength and cannot be consumed too much in battles with foreign races. Just the destruction of 100,000 vanguard troops made Severn IX feel doubly distressed.
Without a strong enough and sufficient army, even if the night elves are eliminated, other countries that have been eyeing them with eager eyes may immediately show their claws. Severn IX made up his mind to try attacking with conventional methods first. If it really doesn't work, in order to avoid too many losses to the soldiers, you have to use "that move" if you have no choice! A ruthless look appeared on Severn IX's face.
Although the generals and nobles did not deal with each other, they still obeyed the orders of Severn IX, who was driving the army personally. The faster troops slow down and the slower troops speed up. The various troops traveling in different directions arrived in front of Brak Fortress at almost the same time.
From a distance, everyone saw those disgusting corpses. Some of the new recruits, the private soldiers of the nobles, and the children of the nobles who had never seen so many corpses and tragic deaths all vomited out.
After a little testing, the troops at the front speculated that the attack distance of the night elves' long-range troops was generally between 500 and 600 meters. And this is actually not accurate. After equipping enchanted equipment and upgrading, even elite night elf archers have a shooting range of up to 750 meters.
The current estimated range of the Severn Kingdom's army is just data deliberately given by Tyrande in order to paralyze them. When the battle begins, these erroneous data will definitely give humans a surprise.
Those who speculated on the range of the Night Elf's ranged troops did not doubt their assertions. Because the range of five to six hundred meters seemed incredible to them, they did not think about whether this was a deliberate conspiracy set by the enemy.
As the number of arriving troops gradually increased, the scene outside Brak Fortress became increasingly spectacular. When there are ten thousand people, the sky is boundless, and when there are one hundred thousand people, the sea reaches the sky. But what about an army of millions? Well, all I can see is a sea of people.
And this sea of people was composed of soldiers, so the murderous aura exuded was extremely huge. If someone practices the murderous wave fist here, they will definitely enter the country very quickly. Uh, I'm going too far. Let's take a look at the next move of the Severn Kingdom's troops.
The Severn Kingdom was relatively well prepared for the attack on Brak Fortress. Catapults, building carts, etc. are all available. As for ramming cars or something like that, Eslazer doesn't have any. Because the ramming car pushed by ordinary soldiers crashed into the city gate, and the effect was not as good as a blow from a strong man.
However, the catapults must be useless here. Before they are pushed within the range of our own catapults, these machines with huge targets may be smashed to pieces by the stones in the city with a particularly long attack range. Perhaps, the floor truck can also play a role.
Groups of soldiers entered hundreds of trucks, and more soldiers followed the trucks and used them as cover to advance towards the Brak Fortress.
The carts used by the human world in Eslaze during wars do not require human power like the carts that appeared in the history of the earth. Although it does require a few people to provide kinetic energy through pedals and the like inside the car, the car is actually driven by magic.
A carriage engraved with light-weight skills can move at an unsatisfactory speed with only a dozen or so people pedaling. This building car can accommodate hundreds of people, and there will be even more people following behind using it as cover.
For this wave of testing, the Severn Kingdom invested 500 construction trucks and 300,000 soldiers. Everyone was nervously observing the situation of these trucks and soldiers, while those behind were anxiously waiting for news.
However, as time passed, the truck and the soldiers following it got closer and closer to the Brak Fortress, but there was no response from the Brak Fortress. Is there nothing the night elves can do to get the car? It's impossible. Those boulders that can be thrown far are enough to threaten the car.
It wasn't until Lou Che and the following troops advanced to only three hundred meters away from Brak Fortress that Brak Fortress finally began to counterattack.
There was no staged attack. Five hundred ancient guardians and one thousand (Avril brought two hundred new) mountain giants simultaneously threw boulders. The division of labor is very clear. Three boulders are aimed at a car, and the accuracy of the night elf unit cannot be doubted.
"Boom -" "Crack -" The sounds of impact, the sound of wood breaking and collapsing alternately, also indicate that such an attack by the Severn Kingdom is indeed not a threat.
After the buildings and trucks collapsed, all the soldiers turned around and ran away according to their previous orders. However, although they reacted quickly, the night elves put their enemies so close to Brak Fortress in order to kill them more.
In the end, under the continuous barrage of arrows, boulders and javelins, only about 100,000 of the 300,000 troops successfully escaped from the death line of several hundred meters. As for the five hundred building trucks, naturally they all turned into wreckage and lay there, forming a beautiful picture with the corpses everywhere.
Severn IX was furious. He had already overestimated the night elves' long-range power, but he didn't expect that such careful testing would result in the loss of one-seventh of the army in one fell swoop! This one-seventh is equivalent to about one-tenth of the entire Severn Kingdom's troops.
Those night elves are so insidious! Placing our troops at such a close distance before launching the attack meant that the fleeing soldiers had to endure more arrows. Moreover, the range of five to six hundred meters that was tested before was actually false, causing the troops to lose so much!
However, the night elves are really powerful at long range. If it doesn't work, don't blame me for using "that trick". Severn IX was determined.
