Chapter 103 Returning Time (17) Attacking the Sunwell (Part 1)

Battle of the Sunwell (Part 1)

The siege of the Sunwell begins.

On the second day of the landing, more than 50,000 troops plowed through the island of Quel'danis. The demons either fled into the Sunwell Fortress or were hunted and killed. However, the attack on the Sunwell was delayed until five days later because

It takes a lot of time to disassemble the super-heavy siege crossbow from Silvermoon City from the walls of Silvermoon City and transport it to the front line for reassembly, which also gives the army more time to prepare.

The Sunwell is not big, and the fortress built above it is naturally not very big. The purpose of the building is to use less to defend more, as the last fortress of the high elves. It is a pity that the number of undead natural disasters is unreasonable. The Scourge Army directly

He broke through the city wall and penetrated the Sunwell Fortress without even practicing turning.

The offensive position was arranged outside the gap left by the Scourge when they attacked the Sunwell Fortress. This gap was also an extension of the scar of death that ran through the entire Kingdom of Quel'Thalas. The black scar was deeply carved into the earth, and it was also carved into the ground.

In the history of the elves, the ruthless and endless sea of ​​the undead will always remain in the memories of the elves.

"May we begin? Ms. Sylvanas."

“It’s time to start”

The sun rose, and the light just shone on the Windrunner's battle flag. The beacon was lit, and the magical message from the headquarters spread to the ears of the entire army.

The elves cooked food in the early morning and formed their team before dawn. When they saw the smoke pillars igniting, the officers gave an order and the layers of military formations like fish scales slowly moved forward. Between the gaps, large and small ballistae were pushed

Go forward; in the sky, the sky knights parade back and forth in formation, flags fluttering like clouds; in the military formation, the arcane puppets rumble and walk, and the ground vibrates.

Behind the slightly higher hillside, the demons saw the elven battle flags appearing one by one, like a forest, slowly advancing; they saw the elven armies overflowing the hillside like a flood, and pouring down like a flood, and each phalanx entered the predetermined battlefield.

"The demons are indeed restrained in the solar energy well, and they bet their victory on the summoning ceremony."

Sylvanas and her staff team slowly moved up the hillside, and the rangers of the Guards built a defense line without command. The female elf looked into the gap in the sun well and asked: "Are they waiting for us to rush in? In this case

That’s too much wishful thinking. It seems that the Burning Legion does not have outstanding generals.”

Sylvanas is quite talented. There are two different concepts between commanding thousands and commanding tens of thousands. The former can be commanded by orders, flags and drums, but the latter must make all the officers under his command understand the battle process and intentions.

The rear army of the army stopped as Sylvanas's main formation stopped, and then after a hundred breaths, the middle army stopped; after another hundred breaths, the front army stopped, and finally the left and right armies slowed down again.

Stop advancing. The entire army formed a half-moon formation like an inverted triangle, with the concave surface facing the gap in the sunwell and covering the walls on both sides. They all built shield walls to prevent the demons from counterattacking. The distance between the frontmost army formations

The Sunwell City Wall is over 1,000 meters tall.

The command headquarters issued another order, and the transformation spellcasters dispersed from the magic group and shuttled through the gaps between the companies. They cast spells on various responsible areas, and after a while, the arcane spells shone in sequence, front and back.

The ballistas of the three armies with different ranges were lifted up by the earth, and the earth platforms were connected to each other. Dozens of forts were built that were higher than the Sunwell city wall.

The staff officer looked at Sylvanas.

"Start as planned." Sylvanas ordered.

"clear."

The staff officer gave instructions to his subordinates, and three red fireworks shot into space.

With three beeps, the machine called war started to move.

The gears on various ballistae rattled and rolled up the big strings.

"Calibration distance, 1500, 2500, 6000" Three different models of ballistae, three different calibrations.

"Three test shots."

"emission"

After three shots, the calibration was readjusted, and three fireworks exploded again on the hill where Sylvanas was.

Suddenly, a dozen magic crossbow arrows as huge as the keel of a ship were released from behind Sylvanas. The magic on them had been activated when they left the bow, and with the color of fire magic, they drew a rainbow bridge in the air. But more

The crossbow was fired from the military formation in front of Sylvanas. The crossbow was as small as an arm and as big as a beam, densely packed and enveloping the entire Sunwell building like a doomsday judgment.

Boom boom boom~~~~~~~~Sunwell became a volcano, and the explosion occurred within the city wall of Sunwell. The ground vibrated like an earthquake, and the shock wave hit the towering city wall and bounced back, further strengthening the power of the explosion.

, the flames shot out into the sky more than 200 meters above the sunwell like a volcanic eruption.

"Ouch~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

A beast-like roar spread from the sunwell.

"This sound was made by the Abyss Lord." Sylvanas said to the staff officer with satisfaction: "Hearing such an incompetent roar means that our plan is correct."

"If the enemy doesn't respond, we can capture the Sunwell today." The staff officer also said happily: "They didn't dare to come out when we were building the position before, and they will be even more afraid to come out after we started bombing.

"

"No, maybe it will come out like a mouse."

The bombing continued. After the salvo, each gun crew began to fire continuously. But even the machines were wearing out. The elves continued to project firepower for an hour. The big string of the crossbow became soft, and the material of the crossbow arm showed fatigue.

At this time, various artillery groups stopped bombing one after another. Sylvanas sent out the signal again, and the Sky Knights flew to the sky above the Sunwell and began to drop bombs, dropping them in turn one after another, and returning again and again.

Floating Island reloads.

'Is this the power of a group?' Sylvanas thought in her mind. The war situation has reached this point, and if the demons haven't done anything yet, they will continue according to her ideas until the end.

Alleria led a team of aerial riders and did not participate in the bombing mission. She and her aerial riders hovered at a higher altitude. If the remaining aerial riders in the sunwell dared to take off, she would lead her men to pounce down from high to low, and they would

You can knock them down with just one strike. Looking from a high altitude, you can see a towering place in the firelight.

The tower collapsed, and inside was the Eredar Warlock; behind the city wall, a fortress was roofed by a super giant crossbow. The explosion was lifted from the inside, and countless bricks and stones flew into the air together with the demon's corpse; on the ramp, in the terrace, the road

Many unshielded demons were directly reduced to pieces.

In Alleria's eyes at this moment, except for the Sunwell building, which was protected by a shield, the demons in the Sunwell Fortress were either defending the gaps, hiding behind the defenses, or building fortresses.

Except for the chief demon, no one could survive until the moment of close combat. Her sister had emptied the treasury and carried out all the remaining materials from the troll war seven thousand years ago, preparing to raze all the buildings in the Sunwell.

Attack again.

'If everything goes well, when the last moment comes, our journey in this world will come to an end.' She thought of her relatives and friends in the original world.

At the very back of the army formation, the Argent Dawn was placed here. They were part of the reserve team. Tirion Fordring looked up at the sky, watching the air knights flying overhead one after another. This battle

The elves' military strength was not as good as the orc wars he remembered, but the firepower they delivered far exceeded his knowledge. Even Dalaran would not prepare so many magic weapons.

"If the various kingdoms of Azeroth don't stick to their own interests, the world may not be so bad. However, even compatriots in the same country will have different ideas and needs, and it may be really difficult for different camps to let go of their prejudices.

Difficult." Fording said with emotion.

The words of the old knight were heard by Vereesa. She looked in the direction of the sunwell and watched the rising fire. In her heart, she felt that the world might really be so cruel, but it also needed people to convey each other's warmth.

Vereesa smiled softly: "The times are progressing, and so are we. As long as a group of like-minded people work hard, the world will move in the direction we want." She responded to Old Fording's expectations and said: "Maybe it is true.

Our ideal world can be realized.”
