On the airship, Wojin looked pale and murmured: "Ashamed, the cavemen didn't do their best when fighting us orcs."
Garrosh sneered and said: "It's really interesting that the cavemen actually have such talented generals. It's a pity that the victory of war never only depends on the victory or defeat on the battlefield, but more importantly, diplomacy and the will of the people."
Vol'jin sighed and nodded: "It's a pity that Emperor Lagrange could have changed history, but now he has become the public enemy of Azeroth. The cavemen are doomed to fail."
Experimental Subject No. 5 never considered himself a military genius. He only knew some simple principles of troop formation.
For example: Be sure to keep a reserve team.
There must be flank cover to make the soldiers feel at ease.
There must be unified command, even if the command is blind, it is better than a swarm of swarms fighting without a command.
Azeroth is a magical world. All smart people have studied magic, which has resulted in them being extremely backward in the art of war. Moreover, they are used to using magic to determine the outcome of wars.
Once there is no magic support, no one knows how to win.
If Fandral and Staghelm were here, one look at the cavemen's formation and they would know that it would be difficult to win, and they would definitely retreat on their own initiative.
Unfortunately, the young Varstan Staghelm was inexperienced and never took a mere caveman seriously.
When the war drums sounded from the other two directions, the night elves walked out of the dense forest and formed a formation.
The night elves' formation was very simple. They formed several square formations and just surrounded the precious druid troops in the center to firmly protect them.
Night Elf warriors carry exquisite longbows on their backs and sharp daggers on their waists. Whether in long-range or close-quarters combat, they are the best warriors in Azeroth.
No forwards, no flank cover, no reserves.
Ten thousand night elf warriors launched an attack like this. Their steps were not fast, just a little faster than walking, but their steps were extremely orderly and their formation was not chaotic at all. It was obvious that the night elves had also been trained.
The formation of 20,000 cavemen was silent. As a burst of fire rose from the formation of the central army, the 5,000 soldiers in the vanguard received the order, picked up dwarf muskets, lined up neatly, and advanced at walking speed, fighting against the dark night.
The elf team is gradually approaching.
Garrosh and Vol'jin noticed that these caveman soldiers were all carrying long, bulging bags, and they didn't know what they contained.
As the two sides gradually approached, the druids of the night elves began to chant, and bright white light clusters flew into the air, exploded, and turned into thin light shields, covering the entire night elves.
The array temporarily blocked the forbidden magic array in Lage City, and the dim elf longbow temporarily shined again.
At the same time, strange chanting sounds also sounded from the battle formation of five thousand cavemen.
Garrosh and Vol'jin both looked strange. Do cavemen also want to use magic?
With the blessing of the enchantment, the cavemen have entered the shooting range of the longbow. The night elves all stopped and loaded their bows with arrows, with the arrow tips tilting upward at a forty-five degree angle.
A large cloud of smoke suddenly appeared in the caveman position opposite, and the formation of five thousand people disappeared in the smoke.
"Is it a smoke bomb?"
Varstan Staghelm waved his hand contemptuously, disapprovingly, which did not delay the night elves' volley.
As long as the arrows are shot within the smoke-shrouded range, following Varstan's order, the night elves' arrows flew towards the caveman's position.
After three consecutive rounds of volleys, the night elves stopped shooting. Varstan knew the importance of conserving physical strength.
Strangely, the five thousand cavemen shrouded in smoke remained motionless, as if they were all dead.
Not long after, the smoke gradually dissipated, and there was no caveman on the ground, only countless arrows, like dry reed ponds in autumn, as if mocking Walstein's incompetence.
The cavemen disappeared?
Varstein was stunned. The first thing that came to his mind was various teleportation magics, but there was a forbidden magic circle in Lage City, and even cavemen could not use magic.
Garrosh and Vol'jin also looked at each other, how did the cavemen disappear?
Valstan made the mistake of underestimating the enemy and forgot to command while thinking. Ten thousand night elf soldiers just stood there, at a loss.
Suddenly, smoke appeared on three sides of the night elf formation, and the distance was less than a hundred meters.
The moment the smoke rose, countless gunshots rang out. In just one salvo, thousands of night elves fell to the ground and stopped breathing forever. More soldiers were injured and wailed.
The night elf soldiers fought back hastily. They couldn't see the target in the smoke, and they just fired randomly with their bows. The screams of the cavemen could be heard one after another in the smoke.
The smoke dissipated, and only the corpses of hundreds of caveman warriors were seen. The sharp-eyed night elf soldiers noticed that where the caveman corpses fell, there were traces of movement on the soil on the ground.
"It's a tunnel, a caveman's tunnel!" a soldier shouted.
Valstein suddenly woke up after hearing this. He finally understood the secret of the caveman's disappearance.
What cavemen are best at is digging tunnels, which is what they rely on for a living. The tunnels they dig are so narrow and small that only cavemen can pass through them, but they are extremely complicated.
Varstein finally understood that this was a carefully planned war, and countless tunnels had been dug by cavemen under the battlefield.
The caveman remembers the location of the tunnel exit. In addition to smoke bombs, the long pocket on his back also contains digging tools such as shovels. He only needs to dig through the exit and get in, and then block the exit with soil to complete the mystery of the disappearance.
Afterwards, the cavemen passed through tunnels extending in all directions and reached the vicinity of the night elves' formation. They suddenly dug an exit, covered it with smoke bombs, and then emerged to launch an attack.
After a volley of fire, the cavemen immediately escaped into the tunnel, and only a few who could not escape in time were shot to death by arrows.
Among all the races in Azeroth, no one except the cavemen can accomplish this exquisite tunnel tactic.
Valstein hurriedly directed the treatment of the wounded. At the same time, all the night elves opened their eyes and carefully observed their surroundings, fearing that a group of cavemen would emerge again. Strangely, there was no more movement.
The formation of cavemen in the distance was quiet. After a long time, a voice came from the high podium. It probably had a loudspeaker or some other device, and the voice was extremely loud:
"Please go back, brothers and sisters of the night elves, we cavemen have no intention of being your enemies."
Attacking the city is the next step, attacking the heart is the top step.
This is another truth that Test Subject No. 5 has taken to heart.
Valstan was filled with hatred. How could a dirty and humble caveman be worthy of being called a brother and sister to a noble night elf?
But at this moment, the night elves were seriously damaged, and thousands of wounded needed treatment.
Varstan had no choice but to retreat, and the night elves retreated into the dense forest camp in dejection. However, the tauren's attack to the west never stopped.
After more than 30,000 tauren fell, the gunfire of the cavemen finally became sparse. After running out of ammunition, they drilled into the tunnels like the cavemen to the north.
Son of the Earth Lie En. Bloodhoof looked proud and proud. He was the only one who persisted until the end and successfully repelled the enemy, winning supreme glory for the tauren. (To be continued)
