v2 Chapter 674: The Danger Facing the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas

Although the high elf ranger army and the orc army have their own advantages and different strengths, but in terms of overall combat power, the combat power of an elite orc army is probably about the same as that of a combined army of high elf ranger troops. .

This is due to the fact that the high elf ranger troops have a large number of battle pets to barely equalize. In the past, even Alleria and Cirvanas would dare to evaluate the strength comparison between the two sides in this way.

However, even based on the current assessment criteria for the comparison of the strengths of the two sides, Quel'Thalas' current situation still appears to be quite dangerous.

The High Elf Ranger Troop, a joint legion is composed of a main battle legion and a supplementary legion, with a total of 12,000 people. If calculated in this way, then just the two elite orc main combat legions that suddenly appeared in the southern Eversong Forest of Quel'Thalas can contain at least four ranger legions of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas. .

The standing military force of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas is only ten legions, and the ranger troops in the south are only six legions in total. Therefore, the emergence of these two elite orc combat armies brought great military pressure to the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas.

"Fortunately! We have transferred the expeditionary army back to the country, otherwise the situation will definitely be more difficult now!" Alleria said happily.

Sylvanaki also frowned and looked at the big red arrows on the military map representing the coalition forces of the orcs and Zul'Aman trolls and said, "Indeed! The orcs' advancing speed is really too fast! My brother-in-law wrote that they sent troops from Xantlan to After about twenty days, so we'd better hold the orcs in Nanyongge Forest for at least a month."

Cirvanas looked at the map seriously and said calmly: "If the orcs are allowed to run amok like this again, I'm afraid it will take less than a month for the orcs to pass through the southern Eversong Forest and enter the northern part of the Eversong Forest to reach Qingfeng Village. gone."

"Well! Sylvanas, what you said is correct. If this speed is followed, this group of orcs will soon pass through the southern Eversong Forest and enter the northern part of the Eversong Forest, where they will fight with the defenders of Qingfeng Village Fight."

Alleria said: "The enemy is very destructive. Almost no place they pass can be said to be complete. Fortunately, we evacuated many civilians in advance, otherwise the consequences are really unimaginable now. However, We still have to find a way to slow down the enemy's progress, especially the progress of these orcs.

Qingfeng Village is different from South Eversong Forest in that the civilians have not been completely evacuated there, and it is also the first line of defense to protect North Eversong Forest and Silver Moon City. Once Qingfeng Village's defense line is breached, not only Silvermoon City will be seriously threatened. What's more serious is that Fanyang Port will be in danger of falling into the hands of the orcs and the Zul'Amandan army at any time. "

Fanyang Port is currently one of the important logistics transfer points for all Ranger troops fighting in the South Yongge Forest. A large part of the logistics materials have to be transported to Sharantis Island through Fanyang Port, and after being transported from Sharantis Island to Golden Mist Village or Fengxing Village or the Tower of Windrunner, they are then dispersed to various fighting forces. In the hands of the ranger legions.

Therefore, Cirvanas naturally knew the significance of the existence of Fanyang Port to the ranger troops in the Southern Eversong Forest.

In fact, in the combat plan of the entire Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, the combat area that the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas can tolerate is at most Qingfeng Village. If Qingfeng Village cannot be defended, it means The kingdom of Quel'Thalas is in grave danger.

Because the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas is not as large as the Kingdom of Stormwind and the Kingdom of Lordaeron, so it also has such a large strategic depth. Once Qingfeng Village is captured, if you go further north, the capital of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, Silvermoon City, will bear the brunt. Which country is willing to let the enemy's army come under the capital?

If the enemy is allowed to approach the capital, it will be very detrimental to the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, no matter in terms of army morale or political significance, and it will even have a great impact on all the people of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas. influence, because that means that the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas may be destroyed at any time.

So whether the high elves are willing or not, Qingfeng Village can only be the northernmost border point of the battlefield that Quel'Thalas Kingdom is willing to give up. Once the enemy approaches Clearwind Village, all high elf troops in the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas will be forced into a head-to-head battle.

This is something that everyone in the Quel'Thalas elf kingdom does not want to see, and it is also something that all the high elf troops and people of Quel'Thalas must work hard to avoid.

Compared with the allied forces of orcs and trolls, the high elf ranger army was not a unit that was good at frontal decisive battles. Rangers were better at jungle guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare with a wider range of activities. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

Therefore, although all the ranger troops in the southern Eversong Forest of Quel'Thalas are obviously at a disadvantage under the combined attack of the orcs and the Zul'Aman trolls, they must do everything possible to fight against the enemy in any case. Before the orcs withdrew and turned to attack the Kingdom of Lordaeron, they blocked the allied forces of the orcs and Zul'Aman trolls to the south of Qingfeng Village. In the predetermined battlefield of Eversong Forest.

Therefore, the most important task for all the ranger troops in the Southern Eversong Forest is to use their familiar terrain and environment to do everything possible to prevent the orcs and Zul'Aman troll coalition forces from moving northward quickly.

Otherwise, once the high elves are forced to enter a positional battle with the allied forces of the orcs and Zul'Aman trolls, the high elves will be very passive. If the orcs turn to attack the Kingdom of Lordaeron as expected, then the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas will face a very dangerous situation, and it is not impossible to even destroy the country.

You must know that in the original history, the allied forces of orcs and Zul'Aman trolls led by Doomhammer rampaged in the southern part of Quel'Thalas, and easily wiped out all the areas south of the line of Golden Mist Village, Fengxing Village, and Taquilin. And this area itself is equivalent to almost one-third of the land of Quel'Thalas.

And the high elves were indeed powerless to stop them at that time. If the orcs and the main Oman trolls later had a disagreement, and Doomhammer led the orc troops to attack the royal city of Lordaeron, then what would happen to the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas in the end? It's really hard to say how it will become.
