Chapter 261 261 [The prophet respected by the entire clan]
The demonic army is like a piece of rotten devastation on the earth, gradually covering every inch of the open land from far to near, and the endless dark green evil energy follows it, slowly spreading.
The demons walked forward slowly in an orderly queue, stopped outside the extreme range of spells and long-range weapons, and let out a deafening roar towards the defenders at the entrance of the valley. In their scarlet eyes, they gushed out with anger towards all creatures of order.
The soldiers became nervous in vain.
Especially on the human side.
On the city wall, a soldier carrying artillery propellant was so frightened by the demonic formation that he froze in place, his legs trembling uncontrollably. Inadvertently, the gunpowder bag in his hand fell to the ground, and the rope tied to the parchment bag fell to the ground.
It also slipped away, and flammable gunpowder dust suddenly spread.
Fortunately, a night elf druid had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he summoned a strong wind in time to blow away the dust. Otherwise, once the gunpowder was ignited by the torch, this building was piled with a large amount of gunpowder and shells, built around a twenty-pound ship-borne artillery weighing five tons.
The fort, I'm afraid, would be destroyed by a loud explosion before it even opened fire, and a large number of nearby soldiers would also die without a burial place.
Seeing this, Jaina frowned slightly and looked at Colonel Lorena beside her.
Colonel Lorena gritted her teeth, pulled out her riding crop, and struck it hard on the ground.
"Snapped!"
The crisp explosion immediately attracted the attention of nearby soldiers.
"Take that crappy artilleryman down!" With a shout, several soldiers immediately lifted the frightened guy off the city wall. Then she looked around and said loudly: "Cheer up!
! Supervise the battle team to come forward. Those who are afraid of fighting, those who do not respect the orders of the superiors, and those who run away without authorization... kill them immediately!"
The war is coming, and we must not be merciful to cowards.
In the past, those who accompanied Jaina to the west were a group of loyalists who came from Kul Tiras to be loyal to Her Royal Highness, and those who firmly believed in the prophecies of the "Raven Prophet" and firmly believed that only by embarking on a new journey could salvation be ushered in.
Most of the people with lofty ideals left were scattered by the undead on the battlefield of Lordaeron, but they were unwilling to return to the establishment and continue to fight. Because they were greedy for life and feared death, they joined the West Ferry Fleet, hoping to escape from the war.
They originally thought that there would be no more wars on another continent, but unexpectedly, they were forced to go to Mount Hyjal to continue participating in a war that was far more intense than the battlefield in Lordaeron. This time, their opponents also changed from the terrifying undead.
, replaced by the more terrifying Burning Legion.
Although in later generations of Theramore, the army was supplemented by the elite naval force brought by King Daelin Proudmoore of Kul Tiras to permanently eliminate the orcs. Under the construction of a group of experienced senior generals, it gradually
On the right track, but the early Theramore power was actually extremely weak.
The root lies in the early army where war-fearers dominated.
I have to say, this is a very frustrating thing.
In terms of combat effectiveness, the nearly 20,000 soldiers Jaina brought this time may not even be comparable to the 3,000 elite orcs.
Not to mention morale and tenacity.
Therefore, under the advice of many officers, she divided the elites and ordinary soldiers into two independent parts. The elites were mostly placed at the mouth of the valley to withstand the first round of impact, while the ordinary soldiers, who were mainly war-fearing, were more
Within the city walls, and behind the city walls, they are mainly engaged in long-range strike missions.
Otherwise, if there is a mixed formation, I am afraid that when the casualties reach one-tenth of the organizational number, the troops will collapse. And the fate that awaits those soldiers who stick to their positions and refuse to retreat will only be trampled to pieces by their own people.
"here we go……"
Jaina pursed her lips and whispered.
I saw that the demon array changed and quickly separated to both sides. More than a dozen giant hellfires with a height of more than ten meters, as well as hundreds of angry guards who originally guarded the groups of Eredar mages, broke away from the array and came to the array.
In front of the enemy, they seemed to be serving as the sharp knife troops for the first impact.
The magic bats in the air were also ready to dive.
"Prepare for battle!"
“Lok’Tar Ogar!”
The cries of the human soldiers were instantly drowned out by the excited orcs.
The orcs' fearlessness in battle made even the night elves look askance. Cain Bloodhoof, who led a large number of tauren and guarded the city gate, was also infected by it and shouted loudly. The huge totem pole slammed to the ground.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Jaina felt that even the city wall was shaking.
"May the wisdom of the prophet illuminate your path forward, and may Elune be with you." In the tense environment, a pleasant voice sounded in my ears, like moonlight penetrating the darkness, shining into Jaina's face.
Atrium.
Jaina turned her head, only to find that it was Shandris Feathermoon, the leader of the night elf reinforcements and the senior general of the Sentinels.
The red lips under her visor were slightly raised, her silver eyes were shining, she glanced meaningfully at Jaina, and then she climbed onto the hippogryph beside her and took off into the air.
The griffins brought by Theramore's army, like the wyverns of the tribe, are very rare in number. To fight against the opponent's air force, they mainly rely on the night elves' hippogryph troops.
"The wisdom of the prophet..."
Jaina looked at the hippogryph going away, repeating these words in her mouth, and the confusion in her heart was once again aroused.
During this time, as she got along with the night elves, she heard too many rumors about the "Prophet", and everything pointed to Angmar, who had given her valuable advice in Dalaran.
One is omnipotent, even more powerful than Aegwynn, and has already stood at the top of Azeroth. The other is a young man of similar age to her...
There was no way she could connect the "prophet" that the night elves said led them to victory in the ancient war ten thousand years ago and gave them eternal life to Angmar.
But Aegwynn, Malfurion, and even the Red Dragon Queen's attitude towards Angmar gave Jaina a very unreal feeling. They... seemed to not only know Angmar, but to be able to communicate with this person.
Wait until the transcendent existence becomes old...
The demons launched a charge... Countless demons followed closely behind the sharp knife troops and attacked towards the entrance of the valley.
Jaina was puzzled.
Angmar...
who are you?
"Ms. Jaina, I believe the 'prophet' that General Shandris refers to is your blood elf friend."
As he spoke, Thrall's eyes turned white, and crackling lightning danced in his palms.
"oh?"
Jaina used her magic to target the explosive trap at Taniguchi.
"Kane once told me that there are ancient legends about the 'Prophet' among the tauren. According to legend, he is the messenger of Anshe. Under the sun, his white skin shines. He is not tall and looks like
He is ordinary, but has great power that cannot be ignored. He controls the ancient magic spring, can summon the power of An She with just a few movements, and has also received the blessing of Mother Earth... Among the many ancient creatures, there is no one
He can stand shoulder to shoulder with him. After the world collapsed, he used his supreme wisdom to provide valuable guidance to the mortal races..."
These words made the feeling of unreality in Jaina's heart even stronger.
"From the first meeting in Ashvale, the elements have been deeply confused. At first, I didn't understand its origin. I thought it was the elemental turmoil caused by the invasion of demons. This is indeed the case with the elements. The evil has plunged them into unprecedented chaos.
It was chaotic, but every time I approached the three-seat magister of the blood elves, no matter how helpless and manic they were, all the elements would settle down like well-behaved babies, as if they were being comforted by their mother - I have never seen this situation before.
"
Sal continued.
"The elements have given me the answer. Ms. Jaina, your friend is not simple. His plan may be the key to saving us and saving Azeroth, so... I led the troops to support you.
, buy time for him and the 'Prophet'."
Jaina frowned, instinctively feeling unbelievable at Thrall's words, and did not reply. She pointed at the explosive trap hundreds of meters away with her green and green finger. Under the surge of magic power, it turned into a blazing flame flowing from her finger.
The tip shot out, flashed through the air in an instant, and accurately hit the gunpowder pile in the asphalt.
"boom!"
This explosion was like the trumpet that opened the curtain.
The two most powerful spellcasters in the tribe, Drek'Thar and Thrall's apprentice, immediately launched a spell attack.
The dazzling lightning chain spanned a distance of hundreds of meters at an outrageous speed, electrocuting the demons who had narrowly escaped the explosion into charred corpses. The converging lightning storm tore apart the valley mouth, and countless amounts of earth and stone were
It fell down and almost completely buried the devil's vanguard.
The sound of cannons rumbled, and humans tried their best. The large-caliber ship-borne artillery shipped from Theramore spit out tongues of fire and pushed out heavy projectiles one after another.
For a moment, bowstrings rang softly, muskets burst, and arrows rained like clouds...
The magic bats and hippogryphs in the air also collided violently.
