Including the troops supported by the Kaldorei and Draenei, as well as the Zandalar troops in the Tal'Gurub region, the army originally had a population of more than 30,000.
There were less than 15,000 people left after this battle.
The most serious losses were naturally the trolls, with almost half of them dead. The thick-skinned and high-blooded draenei also lost dozens, and the kaldorei lost hundreds.
Without the help of early beast allies, this loss figure would have been even higher.
The battle loss ratio exceeded half, which would be an extremely serious attrition for any world's army.
Fortunately, we won in the end.
The Kaldorei in the expeditionary force have returned to the army and are back in charge of Shandris.
Now, including the draenei in the expeditionary force, there are only about 11,000 people left. Subtracting the draenei and goblins, that means there are only about 8,000 to 9,000 troll soldiers left.
With such a battle loss ratio, the expeditionary force has not collapsed. In addition to the victory, the main reason is also because of Tonatiu's extremely high prestige and the ancient bloodiness inspired by the trolls.
During the ongoing war between the trolls and the Yaqir Empire, entire armies and entire tribes often died to the point where only a few trolls were left.
After the battle, Tonatiu was heartbroken and happy to smash out hundreds of thousands of units of the power of faith.
The reason is simple: except for the draenei and night elves who are not under his control, and the goblins who hide after firing the cannon.
After the bloody battle, all the trolls have been upgraded. Thanks to the power of the system, the average level of the soldiers was about eight to ten.
After the war, the lowest level also reached level 12. Some of the outstanding ones have even reached the professional level of around level 15.
In other words, the expeditionary force was originally an elite army. The surviving trolls have become stronger.
The remaining army of more than 8,000 trolls is already a troll army whose average level is not inferior to that of the ordinary Kaldorei army, but whose fighting will is more ferocious.
More than half of them are Zandalari trolls, but the God-King has already made up his mind not to return them to Zandalari.
He decided to name these elites of more than 8,000 trolls the Tonatiu Legion. This legion would become the skeleton of the empire's most elite troops in the future.
Led the Tonatius Legion and goblin engineering and technical troops, as well as Draenei allies, as well as more than 30,000 kaldorei led by Shandis, and thousands of draconians led by Nysandra and Krasus.
The coalition forces moved all the way south.
By the time we were about to arrive at the Garden of Loa Spirits, we had already fought several small-scale encounters along the way.
This abandoned beast-blood coalition already knew of their arrival.
They should also know that they have been abandoned, Ner'zhul and the orc army fell on them.
Originally, Tonatiu planned to go to the central battlefield first, where he could directly pass through the Zandalar Mountains and enter Zansulli...
However, Zul's reply to him was not to worry, he could defend the Zandalar Mountains, and he did so very well: with the help of Bwonsamdi and Zanza the Sleepless, Zul used voodoo to kill the central
Orc army commander on the battlefield.
An extremely tall, terrifyingly strong orc warrior, the orcs called him Blackhand because his hands were originally black.
There is no need to support the central battlefield before Tonatiu can lead his troops all the way south. The support situation is the most urgent and it is also the western battlefield that always faces the largest orc troop strength.
Soon, on the outskirts of the complex terrain area of Loa's Garden of Spirits, the coalition forces encountered the first large force of the Orc Legion.
Across a large lake, Tonatiu looked at the orcs opposite from a distance...
Naturally, the orcs also saw the arrival of the coalition forces. They were facing a huge enemy. For the orcs, they were at their most critical moment as they were attacked from both sides.
"Orcs are like mice in a basin, they have no way to escape," Shandis said.
The scouts have discovered that there is only this large-scale orc army nearby, and there are no other lurking armies.
Tonatiu said directly.
"Attack. Divide the troops into two groups, bypass the lake, and fight quickly."
"Maybe we don't have to go around. Maybe we can go directly." Cleostraz suddenly said...
"kindness?"
"Please help me." The red dragon mage suddenly said to several tall blue dragon men behind him.
They nodded.
The draconians of Azeroth are highly intelligent creatures, and they are said to be hatched from dragon eggs.
However, the dragon eggs that hatch out dragonmen are stunted eggs, and they are also regarded by normal dragons as members of the dragon legion.
Dragonites generally play the roles of guards, soldiers, mid-level and junior officers, and nannies in the Dragon Legion.
Each of the five major guardian dragon races has its own dragon-man legion. These dragon-people also possess the power of the guardian dragon within their bodies.
For example, red dragonmen have particularly tenacious vitality. Some of the most powerful dragonmen can even breathe dragon breath.
Another example is the blue dragon people, who are the blood descendants of the guardians of magic. Even though their faces look like lizards, and their huge bodies look like reckless men. In fact, these guys are rich in high-level magicians, and they often learn by themselves without anyone teaching them.
That kind of.
Cleostraz specially selected these blue dragon men as his temporary guards. They looked like melee monsters, but in fact they were all archmages.
With the help of several archmages more than ten meters tall, the red dragon Cleostraz cast spells on the lake.
The orcs on the other side of the lake have not yet decided on a strategy to deal with the coalition forces, while Cleostraz has already completed the spell.
The lake is not small in area, but it was frozen under the scorching sun.
The waves become a thoroughfare.
"It can be maintained until the coalition forces pass." Cleostraz proudly said to the God King.
Tonatiu glanced at him.
Shaking his head, he said: "Then pass!"
Cleostraz was puzzled and didn't know why the Troll King shook his head.
Tonatiu actually felt that it was too wasteful for Crassus to do this. He spent so much effort just to freeze a lake to allow the army to pass!
With so much mana, it's better to drop a meteorite directly on top of the orcs' heads and kill these guys.
However, they have already finished showing off their skills, and Tonatiu has nothing to say.
Moreover, the dragons and giant dragons had already charged. Tonatiu was originally worried that those huge dragons would trample the frozen lake.
As a result, almost all the dragons passed by half-floating. It turns out that even if they are not blue dragons, dragons of other colors are also good at magic.
It is not difficult for them to lose weight when needed.
Before the orcs could react.
The coalition forces stepped across the frozen lake and killed many orcs in front of the horrified eyes.
