The defenses of New Hearthglen are indeed very tight. It is no exaggeration to describe them as layers of iron barrels.
The only road leading to the front city gate is covered with sentries. Any slight intrusion will trigger the entire Hearthglen to enter a state of alert, followed by the patrol of the griffon unit in the sky. It can be said that not even a fly can escape their eyelids.
escape under the roof, not to mention the hordes of invaders
In view of this, Sylvanas decided to infiltrate by attacking in the east: she sent her Terror Guards to the main entrance, creating chaos there to attract the attention of the Crusaders, and at the same time, she caused the Wolf Cavalry under Roxas to turn from east to west.
, creating the illusion that the tribe is about to attack. At that time, both sides will launch at the same time to contain the main force of Hearthglen. At that time, it is also the moment for Sylvanas and the others to launch a surprise attack!
"Boom, boom, boom~" I heard several violent explosions coming from the front door, shaking the ground.
The next scene was as expected. The Crusaders guards came out in full force, gathering heavy troops and rushing towards the other end of the front door. The wolf riders under Roxas also lit the beacon of attack, and many Crusader towers and sentries were engulfed in blazing flames.
The gryphon legion and the remaining guards in the air had to withdraw to support. As a result, there was an extremely obvious loophole in the city defense of Hearthglen.
Naturally, the battle-hardened Queen of Darkness would not miss this opportunity. With a whistle, a special task force composed of high-ranking alliance generals and the undead lord of the tribe rushed towards Hearthglen, where the chaos was beginning to appear...
At the same time, deep in the Crusade command center, several bloody generals wearing high-ranking military titles were sitting around a long table, discussing the recent war situation in Northrend.
Among them, the one sitting at the top is a woman with chestnut hair. Her high nose bridge and resolute mouth corners outline her unyielding character. Her eyes like the sun and her eyebrows like sharp swords never conceal Abedis.
The unique bravery of the family - obviously, she is the current general of the Scarlet Vanguard Army, Bridget Abidis
She was ordered to take over the huge responsibility from her father who died in battle, allowing the young girl warrior to grow into a leader who controls the fate of tens of thousands of people almost overnight. Years of war experience have sharpened her personality, making Abidis face
There is no mercy for the enemy, which further strengthens the belief that only iron and fire can teach the guilty a lesson.
At this time, the general was listening to a staff officer's combat briefing. In recent months, the battle situation of the vanguard army was not very optimistic, but Abidis was not worried about it - compared to the battle in the Eastern Plague half a year ago.
Terrible situation, the current problem is nothing
"...The above is the confrontation situation between our army and the natural disaster, Your Excellency, General," the staff officer closed the briefing and said, "In general, most of our losses in recent times have come from the Dark Queen's Hand of Vengeance troops, and
Natural disasters have not caused too many conflicts with us.”
"Is there any difference?" A general present snorted coldly, "They are just damn rotten meat. One day, they will be incinerated by the flames of the Holy Light!"
Abidis nodded slightly and said: "Yes, whether it is the despicable undead entrenched in Lordaeron or the brainless zombies under the Lich King, these disgusting things are on the vanguard army's purification list. There is no need to deal with them.
Worrying too much about means and methods”
"Yes, General!" The staff officer bowed respectfully and then stepped aside.
"Everyone!" Abidis glanced at everyone present, and all the generals straightened up involuntarily, "Now that the Apocalypse War has reached its most critical moment, the Lich King's lair is not far away on the ice.
Above Guancheng Walled City! We, the Holy Light Warriors who uphold the power of revenge! We must do our best to seek justice for everything that was destroyed by natural disasters that year!"
"However, the ignorant people from Azeroth ruined our plan!" The female general's tone suddenly turned cold, and she said angrily, "Although their purpose is to destroy the Lich King on the top of the Ice Peak, but
Ignorance of common sense will only turn those people into minions of the plague!"
"So, we cannot allow the number of enemies to continue to increase! For such potential threats, the vanguard must completely eradicate them!" Abidis hammered the table hard, as if to set the tone for his words.
"I will obey the general's order!" The generals at the long table stood up one after another and responded loudly.
The female general nodded with satisfaction and waved for everyone to sit down again: "In addition to the actions against the tribal savages, there is one more thing I want to inform you...that is about the mobilization of the Bloody Dawn troops in New Hearthglen."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of all the generals here changed slightly - it is impossible for factions to exist in any army or organization. This has nothing to do with military discipline or belief. It is purely the social group nature of mortals and
The product of the collision of personalities
The Crusaders are no exception
Although Barry Westwin made outstanding contributions to the Scarlet Crusade and spent most of his life stranded on the coast of Northrend, for the officers and soldiers from Azeroth, what they appreciated more was that
The statue in the monastery's armory, not the now powerful Admiral
Since the Pioneer Army landed, this old guy who was said to have burped has suddenly appeared in front of people. He used sweet words to win the trust of General Abidis, and also vowed that as long as the General could give him a small amount of support,
He can give the Vanguard Army an invincible and powerful force
Abbendis agreed to Weiswein's request without much thought, allocating all the elite power in his hands to the other party, hoping that this former combat hero could bring miracles to today's vanguard army.
Soon, Weswein repaid the general's selfless support with action: a force called "Bloody Dawn" appeared on the northwest island of Icecrown Glacier. They defeated the troops who came after hearing the news with thunderous force.
The undead troops, and it took only a few days to repair and strengthen the original abandoned port, turning it into the forward base of the vanguard army.
Strictly speaking, there are not many commanders with such ability in today's vanguard army, especially in the face of personnel shortages. Weswein's responsibility of taking the lead on his own is even more admirable.
However, this admiration also has great differences and controversies.
The first is the composition of Bloody Dawn - in the Crusaders' commandments, contact with the dark energy of demons is an unforgivable sin, no matter what the purpose is. Only pure holy flames can purify those evil beings. But we understand that
Weswein, who believed in the Crusade, turned a blind eye to this and armed the bloody warriors who were supposed to be followers of the Holy Light with evil energy filled with the breath of death.
Although this move was very useful, greatly filling the shortage of troops in the Vanguard Army, and thus gaining many victories, Weiswein's behavior of ignoring the Holy Light's Order still aroused public outrage.
First of all, the commander of the Hearthglen Front, Isenlien, was one of the three giants of the Crusade. It was hard for him to imagine that a high-ranking general would dare to challenge Scarlet's authority and belief like this!
Therefore, the Grand Inquisitor launched a question to Weiswein and warned him in the name of the Holy Light that if the designation of this unit was not revoked immediately, then only the gallows and the stake would be waiting for him!
Unexpectedly, Weswein didn't buy Isilien's threat at all. General Abidis, as the mediator, seemed to be neutral, but in fact he was biased towards the Admiral: after all, the Scarlet Vanguard Army was too powerful now.
She needs victory to boost her morale, but she must not allow Isorien to "purify" Westwyn as well.
Although this matter was eventually settled, the feud between the Grand Inquisitor and the Admiral was so forged that in the bloody high-level meetings, it was rare to see the two of them appearing together. Today in Hearthglen
Among the attendees, only Grand Prosecutor Ethan Lean was present.
Seeing that Abbendis meant to allow Westwyn to intervene in the affairs of New Hearthglen, Isenlien's subordinates and direct descendants could not sit still: they all looked sideways at the Grand Inquisitor, hoping that their boss could
stand up and say something
"I feel that...there is something wrong with this matter," Isorien, who lived up to everyone's expectations and always had the old god around, coughed twice, slowly stood up and said, "The general's opinion is of course for the sake of New Hearthglen.
It is safe, but the Scarlet Port in Icecrown Glacier is also our important forward base. If there is a mistake because of the division of troops, I think this is what no one wants to see."
"It makes sense..." "What the Grand Prosecutor said is true." "Indeed, it would be reckless to mobilize Bloody Dawn now..."
As if it was a signal flare for the attack, as soon as Isenlien spoke, the other generals responded and raised many questions about Abbendis' decision.
"So, you are all opposed to the Bloody Dawn entering New Hearthglen?" The female general's eyebrows twitched, and she tried her best to suppress the unhappiness in her heart, and asked, "Then how do you guarantee that in the alliance between the undead and the tribal savages?
Under attack, can we hold on to this last fortress?"
"This matter is not difficult, Your Majesty General," Isenlien said. "Don't forget that the tribe has very serious conflicts with the natural disasters and the alliance. If we can make good use of this, they will not even be in danger of their own safety."
If you can’t take care of everything, let’s not bring trouble to New Hearthglen!”
"Alliance?" Abidis frowned slightly when she heard this. To be honest, she did not want humans to be counted as the "enemies" of the Crusaders. After all, for her, who was once a Silver Hand Knight, the concept of a major alliance was still very important.
deeply rooted in people's hearts
And just when the bloody general hesitated, a loud and thick voice came from outside the door:
"The Grand Prosecutor is right, this plan will definitely work!"
