"Hehe, it seems that in this war, our entire southern Quel'Thalas Ranger Auxiliary Legion is the protagonist." Cirvanas suddenly smiled.
Alleria smiled noncommittally and said, "However, it seems that the measures we have taken so far are still not ideal!" She sighed and said worriedly: "The enemy's advance speed is too fast at present."
"So we have to find a way to slow down their advancing speed!" Cirvanas thought for a while and said, "The enemy's advancing speed is fast, mainly in the direction of the two elite orc legions.
And the direction where the Zul'Aman trolls are responsible for the attack has been successfully contained by us, so we want to contain the enemy's attack speed as a whole. We just need to find a way to contain the speed of the orc troops. "
"That's the way it is, but these orcs are too powerful in combat. The strength of one of their legions is equivalent to the strength of our combined legion. If we confront each other head-on, the two main battle legions of orcs alone can contain us. Nearly two-thirds of the total force of Eversong Forest."
Alleria felt a little tricky. Although Quel'Thalas had made considerable preparations for the war before the outbreak of the war, after the outbreak of the war, it still made people feel that the situation was very serious: "Besides, the trolls in Zul'Aman now So far, we have dispatched at least four legions of troops, so in fact we are still at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength.
Also, the trolls in Zul'Aman are still increasing their troops. I estimate that the total number of troops sent by them should reach ten legions. That is to say, if they go well, the trolls in Zul'Aman will probably All out. "
Alleria frowned and continued: "Once the Zul'Aman trolls are fully mobilized, our ranger troops in Nanyongge Forest alone will definitely not be able to stop them from advancing. As for the results we have achieved so far ...that too is only partial and temporary."
"Of course I know this too!" Cirvanas said with a smile: "But sister, I think the enemy's current tactical and strategic guidelines are basically clear, you see..."
Cirvanas walked to the map, pointed to the big red arrows representing the direction of all the orc legions with her clear and slender fingers, and said, "The main forces of the two elite orc legions have all avoided the fortifications. They all turned to the east to attack, and their vanguard has even approached the Eastern Sun Temple, but why did they avoid the Farstrider camp?"
Alleria looked thoughtfully at the direction of Cirvanas' finger on the map.
The configuration of the two elite orc main battle corps that invaded Quel'Thalas this time is very different from the ordinary orc main battle corps. The configuration of these two elite orc main battle corps can almost be said to be a pure cavalry corps.
Most of the fighters among them are wolf cavalry, and some are death knights. However, there are very few orc infantry without mounts, almost completely negligible. This kind of arms configuration has definitely never been seen among all the orc troops that appeared before Azeroth.
If you only judge from the point of view of human arms that the Orc Cavalry Legion is not good at siege, then this is a big mistake. At least the Orc Cavalry Legion with the death knights of the orc generation will definitely not be like the Human Cavalry Legion. The same is not good at siege.
Because even without large siege equipment such as catapults and rams, siege would not be a very difficult task for these orc elite battle legions with many generations of death knights.
These first-generation death knights are not as crappy and useless as the third-generation death knights who were castrated. These guys can be said to be real monsters created for death.
Not only do they have a strong body like a warrior, and thick full-body plate armor like a knight, but they also have the terrifying large-scale destruction magic like a warlock and the summoning magic that summons powerful demons to assist them.
Compared with heavy and large siege equipment such as catapults and rush cars, these guys' siege capabilities are not inferior at all, and they are even more terrifying and flexible.
Even if it is a tall and strong city wall like Menethil Harbor in Proudmoore, when those warlocks and death knights summon hellfire to attack the city, their defense breaking effect is even better than those of catapults and siege vehicles. The threat posed by such large-scale siege equipment is greater and more direct.
The Farstrider camp has long been on the front line of fighting the Zul'Aman trolls, and its various fortifications are quite complete, but compared with the tall city walls of Proudmoore Menethil Harbor, it is nothing. up.
Because although the various fortifications in the Far Traveler Camp are relatively complete, UU Reading has not built a thick city wall as high as 30 meters after all. No matter for any city, it is not easy to build such a tall and thick city wall.
Such a strong city wall with a height of 30 meters can only be built after a long period of time only if the capitals of kingdoms or important cities have such financial and material resources.
The Farstrider Camp is only a relatively important military fortress in the southern part of the Eversong Forest in Quel'Thalas, and has been at war with the trolls of Zul'Aman for a long time, so although there are many types of military forces in the Farstrider Camp Fortifications, but it is impossible to have so much strength and time to build such a tall city wall.
Relatively speaking, the various fortifications of the Farstrider camp are quite complete, but compared with the tall city walls like the city walls of Proudmoore Menethil Harbor, its defensive effect still has a lot of gaps.
If the death knights in the orc legion summoned a considerable number of hellfires to attack the city, and subsidized a large number of trolls and orc soldiers, then it would only be a matter of time before they really wanted to break through the Farstrider camp.
Now only Zul'Aman's troll troops are besieging the Farstrider's camp, while the two elite cavalry legions of the orcs have avoided the Farstrider's camp and turned to attack the east.
The Zul'Aman trolls besieged the Farstrider's camp because the Farstrider's camp was too close to Sebnuwa and Sebsowa and the city of Zul'Aman. If they don't capture the Farstrider's camp first, and rush to mobilize a large number of troops to move eastward, then the logistics of the Zul'Aman troll and orc coalition forces will always be seriously threatened by the Farstrider's camp.
