Chapter 85
As the saying goes: poor mountains and bad waters make troublesome people.
The harsher the environment, the more ruthless the people who come out, because those who are not ruthless often don't live to adulthood.
Orc This is a highlander who hit Stromgard.
It stands to reason that there are also many farms in the Arathi Highlands, and the land is not too barren. Why has it become poor?
The answer is elemental creatures!
The entire highland is full of earth, water, fire and wind elemental creatures.
These creatures condensed from highly concentrated elements are quite unreasonable.Unlike the game, the elemental creatures in reality basically do not eat physical attacks.
Think with your head, can you kill a fire with a kitchen knife?
Leaving aside nearly half of the places occupied by elemental creatures, there are not many places for the Stromgardians to live.
When the orcs started slaughtering, many times they were inadvertently brought to the territory of elemental creatures by the highlanders.The locals know how to jump into a puddle and hold their breath when they see a fire elemental creature passing by.The orcs chasing after don't understand!That's how it got screwed!
For many poor and white human farmers, an orc head is often worth more than all of his family's belongings.
It's not simple math where a human head only equals 3 silver coins.
3 Although there are a lot of silver coins, the bigger head is still the back.
The alliance was first established, and the six countries were violent at the same time.
Basically, the scale of the military expansion has reached ten times the normal state.
The normal practice is to expand the army with the existing soldiers as the backbone, but not every veteran is suitable to be a captain or something.The gap of lower-level officers is huge.
This made it simple and rude for the nobles of all countries to recruit troops.
"Conscription! Recruiting! The warrior who can bring the head of the orcs is the sergeant of the alliance, and he will be the captain of a 10-person team!"
The nobility's thinking is very straight: those who dare to kill orcs are definitely not cowards. Even if they have no ability to lead troops, at least they will not panic and run back when they see the orcs.This is a qualified squad leader!
The welfare brought by the sergeant of the alliance is that the whole family is given priority to resettle refugees, there are temporary housing, rations, and even widows who cannot survive will be put upside down to warm the bed.
This made a spectacle appear on the Wall of Thoradin—many Arathi refugees who had already fled to a safe place, after learning about the new policy, recruited friends and companions, copied all kinds of weapons, and returned to the country in groups. East.
Such stragglers are not without a chance of winning.
With the clumsy medical logistics of the orcs, even if it was just stabbed by a pitchfork, the wound could become infected and eventually die.
Pitchfork, commonly known as dung fork, when the farmer is working, there is nothing that is not mixed with it.The bacteria above are indispensable.
Then, the orc's scalp was numb and he found that there was still a human who picked up the orc's temporary grave and chopped off his head.
If he was killed by the enemy on the battlefield and his head was chopped off, that would make sense.If the tomb was robbed, it would be unbearable for most of the orcs who still advocate the shamanic culture.
They are more accustomed to soul to soul and earth to earth.
The morale of the orcs on the front line began to decline uncontrollably.
In addition, Arathi's highland knights attacked the orcs out of nowhere, making the frontline annoying.
Orgrim was very aggrieved, lost the Frostwolf clan, and the tribe did not have another large-scale cavalry.Other clans do have warwolves, often only a few hundred wolf cavalry.
No chieftain is willing to dismantle his own wolf cavalry to mix with the wolf cavalry of other clans.Orgrim's idea was met with the fiercest resistance of all the chiefs.
Before the main force of the orcs reached the Arathi Highlands, the advance of the front seemed to be stuck in a quagmire.
This allowed Stromgard to evacuate most of the refugees, unable to return to the besieged capital of Stromgarde, westward, through Thoradin's Wall, and into the Hillsbrad Foothills.
It is very interesting that these refugees have been fully rescued and supported by the Alterac Barov family.Because to the west of the wall is the eastern section of Hillsbrad Hills, including Nanhai Town, which is the largest grain-producing area of the Barov family.
No one wants their own territory to be ruined, and the old Duke of Barov will definitely not let the orcs mess around.
Food, tents, weapons and equipment were continuously transported to the west of the wall by the Barov family, and the number of military camps with more than ten thousand people soon exceeded ten.Further west, there are numerous refugee camps.
Under normal circumstances, no matter how rich the Barov family is, it would be very painful to squeeze out so much material.
However, the alliance has a big dog!
"Sorry! My soldiers haven't been trained yet! My main force probably won't be able to keep up with this big battle. Otherwise, I'll donate some money first!" McDonald said.
Everyone knows that Stratholme was the first to start violent troops. Maybe the quality of the soldiers is not as good as the royal family, but the number is absolutely exaggerated.
10 is already a small number, and even 20 people believe it.
100 million people and 10 violent soldiers are absolutely ruthless, not to mention more than this number per minute.Because someone saw that Mai ordered the sturdy peasant women to practice spears.
No one can say that McDonald's is not.
He sent Viscount Rivendell, the number one general under his seat.The [-] elites led by the Viscount have passed Andorhal and are rushing over through the narrow mountain road at the foot of Alterac Mountain.
According to eyewitnesses, these 1 people, even ordinary soldiers, wore steel armor.
Before the army arrived, there were still 2 gold coins.
These fine Arathor gold coins made Duke Barov dizzy.This is the salary that McDonald donated to the Alliance, through the hands of Lothar, to the Barov family in the name of the Alliance.
With this money alone, the Barov family is not at a loss.
在钞能力驱动下，短短一个月，联盟就在索拉丁之墙防线集结了17万大军：斯托姆加德8万、巴罗夫家族1万、达拉然2万、洛丹伦王室2万、洛丹米尔公爵和奥特兰克各5000，还有一大堆乱七八糟的侯爵、伯爵什么的杂牌军。
These troops with uneven strength, normally, no matter which commander comes, the scalp will be numb.
Oh!It's a city-defense battle, that's fine!
The tall and generous city walls give the commander more opportunities to make mistakes.
It doesn't matter if the quality of the soldiers is poor. With a long spear, if you see any green skin emerging, you will poke it. This is always the case, right?
Even if the front couldn't stand it, Lordaeron's elite troops were still in front, and a counter-charge could drive the orcs out of the city.
On December 12, the arriving Orgrim had the second-rate clan launch a tentative attack.
This time, it was Orgrim's turn to numb his scalp.
First of all, there are not many trees in the broken area of Arathi Highlands, and the eyes are full of rolling hills and turf. To manufacture siege weapons, the wood must be transported from the east of the highlands across dozens of kilometers.
Finally, some trees were transported and turned into cloud ladders. The defenses on the city walls were exaggerated and frightening.
Due to the extra width of the city wall, Lothar could easily displace the first row of sword and shield soldiers and the four rows of spearmen at the back.
When an orc jumped on the top of the city, more than ten long spears often poked at them at the same time. As long as the orc was not fully armored, the orc would have a hole in his body.
Orgrim saw with his own eyes a warrior who he thought was of great strength. He was killed by a second when he went up, and after being killed by a guy dressed as a farmer, he sawed off his head like a big tree with a knife.
The farmer raised the head of the orc warrior high, and the battlements suddenly let out a cry of envy, jealousy and hatred.
