It is a matter of the face of the city lord, and the griffin knights quickly understood the spiritual core. Yes! The face of the city lord is very important! The face of the city lord is very important, especially when the city lord becomes stubborn, then the city lord
Face was even more important. Therefore, all the griffon knights began to compete with the orc shamans for speed.
The city lord's willfulness at this time, in the eyes of His Majesty King Terenas and all the allied commanders, is certainly not called willfulness, but it is called going all out to cover the allied forces entering the city.
When the gryphon knights who kept hovering in the air competed with the orc shamans for speed, they were not just throwing smoke bombs, because the elven gryphon knights only had about forty people, and of course they were not as many as the orc shamans.
, so they are naturally not as fast as the orc shaman.
Therefore, these guys have inherited the fine style of Yulin Blood Eagle, and this style of work is of course the fine style of fighting the scoundrels to the end.
So these guys started loading half with aerial explosive bombs and half with smoke bombs. They gave full play to their subjective initiative, relying on the high elves' keen sense of arcane magic. As long as they sensed a shaman casting spells in the thick fog, they would not care about the three.
721. Just drop a few explosive bombs first. Even if they don't kill the shaman directly, they will immediately interrupt the orc shaman's spell casting and frighten the orc shaman so much that they dare not calm down and continue casting spells.
Then they ran to the area that had been driven away by the orc shaman. When they saw the orc shaman, they threw an arcane shot at it. The orc shaman did not have thick plate armor like those wolf cavalry warriors that could defend against large forces.
Part of the damage, they are just mail professions.
Mail armor can only protect against low-level professions, but these gryphon knights are all selected mid-level rangers and above, and their shooting poses a great threat to shamans. As soon as they fly over, those orc shamans
It will definitely make you run around in fear.
With such rogue methods, the Elf Griffin Knights finally regained their disadvantage. Finally, the dispersal delivery compared with the Orc Shaman finally resulted in a draw. Of course, this draw also earned the city lord a lot of face.
As the battle progressed and the sun set, the Alliance troops outside the city had basically stationed themselves in the inner city of Lordaeron.
When Doomhammer saw that despite his efforts, he could not prevent the Alliance army from entering the inner city of Lordaeron, he knew that he had actually failed in this war.
Yulin Blood Eagle also believed that the entry of troops from outside the Royal City of Lordaeron into the inner city of Lordaeron was enough to change the entire situation on the battlefield, and the security of Lordaeron's city defense was sufficiently guaranteed.
Now the orc army only has wolf cavalry and shaman, and they no longer have any powerful means of siege. Because they came out too quickly, and they still have to achieve the purpose of surprise attack on the Royal City of Lordaeron, what they need is speed, so the matching is basically cavalry troops.
He didn't carry any siege equipment for conquering fortified cities. The main means of siege was to rely on death knights to summon hellfire or other demons for attack.
Now that all the death knights among the orcs have left, even Doomhammer feels very hopeless when facing the thick walls of the Royal City of Lordaeron that are tens of meters high.
What's more, all the alliance troops outside the city have now successfully entered the inner city of Lordaeron, which has more than doubled the defense force of the Royal City of Lordaeron.
If these allied forces were to confront the orcs in the wild, it would really not be a big deal. In a field environment, Doomhammer is completely confident enough to destroy these allied forces.
But at this time, all these allied forces retreated into the inner city of Lordaeron, relying on Lordaeron's thick fortifications to conduct defensive operations. However, the orcs lost their most important and only due to the departure of the death knights.
means of siege.
In contrast, even with Doomhammer's immense military talent, he can only face the tall city walls of Lordaeron and look at the city in despair.
However, although Doomhammer now knows that he can no longer capture the Royal City of Lordaeron, Doomhammer does not intend to withdraw his troops. He still leads the orc wolf cavalry troops to attack around the Tirisfal area, attacking human villages.
, plundering necessary food and war material supplies.
Doomhammer did not lead his troops to leave the Tirisfal area for a purpose, because he knew that although he could no longer capture the Royal City of Lordaeron, as long as the orc troops were still operating within the scope of the Royal City of Lordaeron,
, then it is a huge inspiration to all the orc soldiers fighting on the front line, whether in a political sense or not. This is of extremely important significance in improving the morale of the soldiers fighting on the front line.
Of course, Featherwood Blood Eagle and King Terenas also knew why Doomhammer did not leave the Tirisfal area. They also wanted to drive away the wolf cavalry troops led by Doomhammer, but the orc army was too powerful.
Well, even if all the armies of the Royal City of Lordaeron were deployed, they would not be able to fight effectively against Doomhammer's army in the wild.
Therefore, all the allies can only continue to defend the Royal City of Lordaeron. If the orcs do not attack, they will continue to repair the defenses. However, they are unable to do anything outside the city of Lordaeron.
The two sides were in a stalemate for several months. The orcs did not attack the city and the Alliance did not leave the city. The Royal City of Lordaeron lived a relatively peaceful life.
There was no fighting, so Yulin Blood Eagle was naturally very happy. He originally wanted to come here to pick things up, and he didn't come here specifically to fight. Why wouldn't he be happy if he could lie in bed peacefully and take credit?
As for the human villages outside the city that were invaded by the orcs, Yulin Blood Eagle didn't care much about it. How else could he care about it? Should he send his own gryphon knights to rescue them? There were only forty gryphon knights, and they were gone.
How effective can it be?
This is not the orc squad with only a dozen or twenty people collecting soul fragments at the beginning, but a group of orc wolf cavalry acting collectively. Facing a cunning and powerful enemy like Doomhammer, even flying troops,
If you are not careful, you may be tricked by him, and you have to take risks like this. Obviously, Yulin Blood Eagle, a profiteer, will definitely not do it. If he can be lazy, he will be lazy, and he will not
You are bored and looking for something to do!
As for King Terenas, at this time, because of the stability of the royal city, people in the entire city of Lordaeron were stable. The political situation, residents, and army of the royal city gradually returned to normal, and because there was a large orc army led by Doomhammer outside the city.
The activities made all the soldiers and civilians in Lordaeron more united and united to defend the royal city.
It wasn't until one day that Doomhammer received the news that Gul'dan had indeed rebelled, that Doomhammer left the Tirisfal area with many of his subordinates.
Because Doomhammer had to leave at this time, Gul'dan's rebellion caused all death knights and almost all warlocks on the battlefield to leave the battlefield at the same time, making the orcs' magic power weak in all battlefields.
, and also gave the Allies the ability to counterattack in all battlefields.
If the impact of Gul'dan's departure was just this, it wouldn't make Doomhammer so angry and eager to leave Tirisfal. But Gul'dan's defection took away more than just the battlefield.
He also took away a large number of ordinary orc supporters who were fighting against the alliance on the battlefield. This caused the orcs to quickly transform from a small-scale disadvantage in all battlefields to a large-scale full-scale attack.
Defeated.
Doomhammer was furious. He believed that Gul'dan's rebellion caused the failure of the entire orc army in the World War on Azeroth. Gul'dan betrayed not only Doomhammer personally, but all the orcs.
So Doomhammer sent out elite cavalry to hunt down Gul'dan while rushing to Arathi. Because he knew that the orc troops that had retreated from Alterac, Tarren Mill and Southsea Town would definitely pass through Arathi.
, Doomhammer hopes that he can clean up the mess in Arathi. Even if he cannot turn the orc army that is now defeated into a victory, he can at least reduce the losses of the orcs.
The Alliance's counterattack this time was very fierce. The main Allied forces from Southsea Town, Tarren Mir and Alterac led by Lothar took advantage of Gul'dan's defection and took away all the death knights, warlocks and a large number of their trusted tribes.
This left the front battlefield with a large number of empty troops and the opportunity to attack quickly, hitting the vital parts of the orcs, causing heavy losses to the orc troops heading north.
The orcs began to shift from an offensive posture to a defensive posture, but due to the departure of a large number of Gul'dan's trusted troops, the number of orc troops on the battlefield became much smaller.
Therefore, although the orc soldiers fought hard, they were still divided and surrounded by the alliance army in many places, and the orc army was forced to
A full retreat from Alterac, Southsea Town and Tarren Mill.
The complete retreat of the Orc army caused many of the surrounded Orc troops to completely lose their support and logistical supplies. In the end, they were either wiped out by the Allied forces or surrendered to the Allied forces.
The Allied forces' comprehensive victory on the Hillsbrad battlefield has brought hope of victory to all races and resistance forces fighting the orcs in the world of Azeroth. All parties everywhere are stepping up preparations and increasing their attacks on the orcs.
Pressure level to cope with the frontal battlefield.
At this time, the Yulin Blood Eagle who was in the city of Lordaeron also received a letter delivered by the gryphon knight who was left behind in the city of Queldanis.
The letter was sent from Quel'Thalas, and the person writing the letter was naturally Alleria. Alleria told him that Quel'Thalas had completed the strategic siege of the Zul'Aman trolls, and that the south
The ranger troops also completely captured and occupied the two military towns of Sebunuwa and Sebusova that defended Zul'Aman as planned, completely cutting off the support and logistical supplies of all troll armies invading Quel'Thalas.
Now the Zul'Aman trolls are fighting back with all their strength against Sebunuwa and Sebusova, but the ranger troops of the high elves in the south are relying on fortifications to resist defense. As a result, the Zul'Aman trolls have been unable to capture Sebunuwa and Sebusowa despite repeated attacks.
