Warcraft Eternal Tree
Chapter 569 Wolf Cavalry
Yu Fei stood on the city tower and had a clear view. The orcs' flaming catapult was thousands of meters away from the city wall. According to Eslazer's level of war machinery and magic ability, unless it was a large amount of high-level magic, Or a forbidden spell, otherwise humans would not be able to threaten these burning catapults.
Yu Fei was not surprised at all that the orc tribe's burning catapult had a range far beyond that of the war machines in the world of Eslaze. The status of the burning catapult in the Orc tribe is the same as that of the blade thrower in the night elves. Their ranges are also very long and they are at the same level.
The incendiary bombs that kept hitting the city wall made the mages of Cyric City busy casting water and earth magic to extinguish the flames and repair the city wall. The maximum attack increase of the Mage Tower and the effect of increasing the range of attack spells are completely unable to be reflected.
In this case, a cavalry suddenly rushed out from the orc troops in the distance. In the direction Yu Fei was observing, there were about ten thousand cavalry rushing out, and presumably the same was true in the other three directions.
Yu Fei's keen eyesight allowed him to easily see the appearance of these orc cavalry. The mounts of this cavalry unit are giant wolves that are black, gray or brown, and the knights riding on the giant wolves also look like werewolves.
However, Yu Fei discovered the difference between these wolf cavalry and the werewolves of the Frostwolf clan. Compared with the native werewolves of Eslaze, these wolf cavalry of the new orcs are similar in appearance to an upright giant wolf, and only a roughly human-like face can be seen on the face.
As for the werewolves native to Eslaze, such as the werewolves in the Frostwolf clan that Yu Fei observed through the perspective of the bear warriors, they are actually closer to human form. Only the ears, tail, etc. can tell that it is not human.
This may be one of the reasons for the emergence of the new ancient orcs. The origin of the orcs in Eslaze is unknown, but their evolution towards human form has not changed. This may be because many orcs have intermarryed with humans.
The Orcs in Warcraft do not have the word "human" in their name. The Orcs and the Humans are two completely independent races, and there was no intersection at the beginning.
It is probably for this reason that the orcs in Eslaze will undergo various changes after they choose to integrate the power from the Warcraft orcs that comes to them. Reflected in this wolf cavalry, the originally close-to-human appearance has become atavistic.
These atavistic wolf cavalry advanced very quickly, and under the cover of the burning catapult, they quickly arrived under the city wall of Cyric City. The magicians were busy repairing the city wall, and only some attack magic flew out, unable to stop these wolf cavalry.
When these wolf cavalry came under the eyes of Yu Fei and others, they all raised their scimitars and began to chop down the city wall with a clanging sound.
It stands to reason that if it is not a specialized siege equipment, individual weapons, even giant hammers and axes, will be difficult to cause damage to magic-reinforced city walls. However, on top of Cyric City, the human officers and soldiers all looked solemn.
If you look carefully, the scimitar in the Wolf Cavalry's hand, which looks like a toothpick compared to the city wall, is slashing at the city wall. It can be reinforced by two magic processes, from fossil to mud and mud to stone. The city wall cracked with a big hole.
"It's true." Paramount frowned, talking to himself and seemingly talking to Yu Fei. "I don't know what these orc weapons are made of. They cause so much damage to the city wall, but when they are actually fighting, they are not as sharp as when they chop down the city wall. It is really strange."
Yu Fei was convinced that the wolf cavalry could easily destroy the city wall, but could not display advanced weapons in battle. It was indeed difficult for the natives of Eslaze to understand.
As for Yu Fei himself, he understood the reason for this situation. In the Warcraft game, the attack type of the Wolf Cavalry is siege, which can cause more than twice the damage when destroying buildings. This is reflected in the real world, that is, it is easier for them to destroy city walls than kill people.
Originally, the magicians in Cyric City were struggling just to deal with the burning catapults. Almost all the magicians stationed in the mage tower worked together to equalize the repair speed and destruction speed of the city wall.
But after the wolf cavalry of the orc tribe participated in the attack on the city wall, the officers on top of the city could clearly see with their naked eyes that the repair speed of the city wall could no longer keep up with the destruction speed of the orcs.
"There is no way to go on like this. If the city wall persists for half an hour at most, a hole will be opened. Otherwise, the city wall will be completely destroyed in two hours." Paramount's tone was affirmative, and he quickly discussed the response with the officers around him. measure.
As the leader of the Eighth Army Mage Corps, Yu Fei was naturally drawn into this brief meeting, but he was not prepared to express any opinions. Anyway, in the eyes of these soldiers, he, a magician, should be incompetent in military matters, so they might as well just sit aside and watch how the elite officers of the Holy Lion Empire deal with the situation at hand.
A tall, thin officer was the first to make an opinion. "The repair speed of the city wall cannot keep up with the destruction speed, which is mainly caused by the wolf cavalry under the city. In fact, we only need to kill these wolf cavalry to solve the crisis."
The tall and thin officer's words seemed to be serious, but after he finished speaking, all the officers present, including Yu Fei, looked at this guy with contempt. Aren't you talking nonsense? What we need now is a solution. Who doesn’t know that killing the Wolf Cavalry can eliminate the crisis?
In the past, Yu Fei might have asked Paramount and other officers why they didn't use wooden rolling stones to greet the wolf cavalry under the city? They worked hard to chop down the city wall there, not caring about the situation above their heads. They were just living targets.
But after fighting a lot of battles in Esrazer - to be precise, after seeing a lot of battles between night elves and humans, Yu Fei was not surprised why Cyric City did not have such defensive equipment. .
In the human world, only those towns and small cities can defend their cities with wood and rolling stones. In slightly larger cities, there are usually mage towers built. The war spells amplified by the mage tower can be used to defend the city, which is much more lethal than the wooden rolling stones, and it is also more convenient.
This city of Cyric is the second largest city in the kingdom where the Eighth Army is currently staying. There are many mage towers in the city, so it is naturally impossible to equip it with "low-end" city defense equipment such as wooden rolling stones. Therefore, after the magicians were restrained, the wolf cavalry was able to bully under the city wall without restraint and destroy the city wall.
As for archers, there are too few warriors in Eslaze who use archers as weapons. There are only some ordinary archers in the army. Archers who have not practiced fighting spirit or have only apprentice strength cannot cause effective damage to these wolf cavalry whose strength is obviously around Silver.
Of course Paramount knew this, and knew that what the tall and thin officer said was nonsense. However, he did not reprimand the guy. Instead, he directly gave the officers present two choices and asked everyone to discuss and make a decision on these two choices.
"There is no need to think about anything else now. The decision to be made is to either stick to the city wall and fight the orcs in the streets after half an hour to two hours. Or abandon the city wall and the army will directly go out of the city to fight with the orcs."
Paramount's tone was very firm and did not give the officers a chance to think of other paths. Also, time is tight and there is no room for further thinking.
As soon as these two choices were presented, almost all the officers present subconsciously wanted to choose the former one. Humanity's advantage in wars with aliens lies in the strength of its cities. If we abandon the city wall, wouldn't we use our own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points?
But Yu Fei saw that what Paramount actually wanted to do was to abandon the city wall.
Sure enough, when the officers opened their mouths to say that they should continue to hold on to the city wall, Paramount stopped them with stern eyes. These officers are all old subordinates of Paramount, so they naturally know what the regiment commander means - this is to make them think more.
