Given the choice, no king would allow his enemies to enter his castle, let alone the hinterland within his hinterland.
Under normal circumstances, this king should be equated with the king who subjugated his country.
If this were not the Scourge Legion, and someone surrendered without killing anyone, most of them would have knelt down.
This is a decisive battle between life and death. There is no retreat or concession.
Either death will rule the world, or the living will destroy the kingdom of the undead.
The upper level of Icecrown Citadel gathered almost all the natural disaster elites, so the resistance was naturally quite fierce.
Don't look at it. The sky-piercing horn destroyed the ground and smashed the flesh. The undead inside did not dare to show up again. It is really unknown how many undead are hidden in the huge belly of the mountain.
The real Icecrown Fortress is much larger than the one in the game. It is just a fortress and a city.
There are many narrow spaces, such as aisles, where the advantages of artillery cannot be used.
In the past, the Alliance could only rely on human lives to fight this. Later, it got better and had assault guns for attacking fortresses. This kind of strange tank, which is a bit more head-first than bottom-foot, focuses on front defense, and often uses large-caliber howitzers to demolish houses and blow up bunkers.
The advantage is that it can provide fire cover and bunkers for the infantry. The disadvantage is that the steering is quite inflexible. Once it is bypassed, it is easy to get smoke from the buttocks and GG on the spot.
For example, in actual combat, a gargoyle appeared from the sky, scratched the armor on the back with its hard claws, and tore apart the engine.
Moreover, the assault gun is not very effective against giant units such as abominations and undead storm giants.
The emergence of mecha troops has made up for these shortcomings very well.
"Roar!" An abomination rushed over with a roar, holding up a large rusty kitchen knife with a large amount of dark red flesh and blood fragments stained on it.
[Trial Sword Jianghu M] piloted a mecha and was busy firing at an undead storm giant, so he couldn't spare his hands to deal with this small human bomb.
"Ah!" Seeing the three-meter-tall undead monster on the opposite side holding up the terrifying kitchen knife, the Alliance soldier carrying the metal shield next to the mecha felt a little numb. Driven by duty, he could only muster his anger.
, bite the bullet and prepare to take the knife of hatred.
The sword light failed to strike down in the end, and instead was stepped down by a thick metal foot.
"puff--"
As the sound was many decibels louder, but it was like the sound of stepping on a rotten tomato, the shields of the Alliance soldiers suffered a different kind of test.
It wasn't a powerful and heavy blow, but a pile of rotten flesh that had killed people and hit the front of the shield.
Only when he came back to his senses did this hard-working soldier realize.
What else is there to hate?
Just get trampled to pieces by the mecha!
The soldier looked up at the huge humanoid mecha above him and was stunned for several seconds before he managed to squeeze out one word: "Thank you."
"You're welcome, just come back and help me clean my baby's stinky feet."
Looking at the mechanical feet covered with rotten flesh, the soldier finally nodded: "If I don't die tonight..."
Ordinary battles will definitely not be so stressful. This is the lair of the Lich King, the last fortress, and it also gathers the largest number of undead elites.
Even the skeleton soldiers here are often ancient skeleton soldiers. The skeletons of ordinary creatures have become brittle after being buried for so many years. Those who can be pulled out of the ground and still have strong combat power are all powerful ancient races during their lifetime.
Or he was a level 1 hero back then.
In addition, there are all kinds of powerful enemies such as Ice Guard Warriors, Ice Guard Wizards, Vampire Demons, Withered Colossus, etc. When encountering these enemies, you often need Paladins of the Silver Hand or official mages of Dalaran to attack them.
The most difficult one is the Val'kyr who serves the Lich King.
This humanoid creature with pure white wings looks like an angel. In fact, the soul healer seen during resurrection in the game is Val'kyr.
Odin, the guardian of the world of Azeroth, needed a soul guide in order to prostitute the souls of the vrykul for free, so he asked his adopted daughter Hela to be the first Val'kyr.
The Val'kyr are a very strange tribe. Some of them continue to hang out with Odin, some are with Hela, and some are in the Kingdom of Shadows. There are a few of them who have good intentions and come out to guide the lost souls, which has become a favorite among players.
The angel sister in.
The Val'kyr in Lao Taizi's case was obviously transformed by him using immortal magic.
As an elite monster wandering around Icecrown Citadel, [Val'kyr Herald] is so powerful that it cannot be dealt with by ordinary Alliance troops.
I saw an 'angel sister' whizzing past, swooping down to kill me.
With a wave of her hand, which was quite slender in proportion, she broke through the magical protective runes on Zaku's armor, causing the [Crow] piloting the mecha inside to lose his soul.
Well, I lost my soul in both physical and spiritual senses.
The most troublesome part is that when they get here, what they see in front of the Alliance troops is a huge hemispherical dome with a diameter of more than three kilometers. These Val'kyr are flying in the sky, firing at the Alliance troops below.
Forget about the flat ground, there is an abyss under this dome. There is only a strange cross-shaped corridor, plus a circular corridor on the side of the dome where people can stand. The corridor is not wide, and the standard is about thirty meters.
It will definitely be enough for people to leave, and one or two mechas will be fine, but forget about large-scale mechanized troops.
Therefore, under the cover of mechas, the hardest and most tiring work had to be handed over to the Black Dragon Legion of the Alliance and the Griffin Troops of the Wildhammer.
This is a very cruel air battle, and the winner is often determined by a single pass from both sides in the air.
Either the Val'kyr is surrounded by lightning or bathed in fire, and his soul is annihilated under the attack of the elements.
Either the gryphon knight and the black dragon fell amidst the screams. The worst thing is that death is not the end. Often the victims who fall into the abyss will return to the battle line in the form of undead soon, but on the opposite front.
.
If we have to say what advantage the alliance has, it is that in such a narrow space, the effect of anti-aircraft firepower is maximized.
The Alliance Air Force consciously forced the natural disaster flying units to go to the outside. Once they were pushed there, they would undoubtedly enter the realm of destruction.
"Thud, tug, tug, tug!" The latest model of mecha uses the [Bobosha] cannon, which uses the sick version of the drum. Once the 71-round 40mm cannon is fired, it feels like there is no end, and it sprays like a pouring water.
The charge is no longer traditional gunpowder, it is all magic crystal filled with flame elements.
This is quite effective against the Val'kyr in soul form, and has decent lethality against the few gargoyles.
The mecha troops formed a terrifying firepower network, wiping out every approaching natural disaster flying unit.
The fierce battle lasted for a full 36 hours before the area was basically cleared and no more natural disaster soldiers came out.
Looking at the huge three forked roads in front of them, the alliance bosses fell into deep thought.
McDonald pondered for a moment and then said: "Varian, take your people to the west. Alsace, you go to the east. I will lead the main force to slowly advance north."
