Chapter 309: What did the pangolin say in the end?
Friendly reminder: Non-veteran travelers should not cross Azeroth at will!
Sometimes Carlos himself sighs that it is not easy for him to be a mother.
Because the planet Azeroth is too big, and humanity is too weak.
It seems that the upper and lower parts of the Eastern Continent are all human territory.
But let's be reasonable, the territory that is directly controlled by human beings is actually very small.
Vast expanses of primeval forests, demons and monsters all over the mountains.
If Borderlands 3 has development plans, it is perfectly possible to come to Azeroth.
An excellent general must have the ability to see the subtleties, Carlos went all the way south with a vote of thugs, and couldn't help but sigh: The orcs are finished.
On another world line, Lothar fought for more than a year from the counterattack on the wetlands to the decisive battle at the Black Rock Mountain. The orcs are deployed layer by layer, counterattacking everywhere, and the alliance they fight is miserable. At the same time, until the alliance of humans and High Elves joined forces with the dwarves in Ironforge, the orcs did not have less military pressure on the Copperbeard Dwarves of Ironforge.
Look at the present, however.
Carlos led more than a thousand men and horses to cross the Danmoro mountain road, and the orc kittens followed and followed, destroying the water source along the way.
Ogrim. Doomhammer and Red. The power struggle of the black hand is far more fierce than in the other world!
Although the orcs in the north were defeated, there were at least 200,000 tribes in the south.
The soldiers of Fort Riptide tried several times to seize control of the Saldo Bridge, but were blocked by the orcs of the tribe.
The original defender became the attacker, but the result did not change, which can only show that the broken bridge is really a moat that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
It is impossible to open up supply and transportation lines by land, and the sea alone cannot support the advance of the army.
The first coalition soldiers to land are estimated to have to spend more than a month in the wetlands.
And unlike the other worldline, Quel'Salas has an ambiguous attitude.
Although war was declared on the Horde. I also joined the alliance.
But without waiting for the main force of the High Elves to enter the battle, the humans won the victory of the tribe on their own...... Well, it was Gul'dan himself who crippled the main forces of the Horde in the Hilbride region.
As a result, there was another disagreement within the High Elves.
Some of the High Elves felt that Quel'Thalas had not fulfilled his obligations as allies, and that it was natural for him to go south to fight.
The other part believes that humans have the strength to defeat the Horde, and that the High Elves can fulfill the covenant in a different way. And it is not necessary to send soldiers thousands of miles away.
Although internal disagreements have caused Silvermoon City to move slowly, judging from the feedback from the news, at least the High Elves still have to face, and the Covenant is ready to stay out of the matter.
But without that elven archmage, to be honest, the magic power of humans is still a little weaker.
As a neighbor bordering the territory, Carlos can suppress the kidnapping of Illusia. But Dalaran couldn't act as if he couldn't see anything. Although that hapless Nygg. It is an unsolved mystery who Dasabhi is, but Antonidas and the Violet Eye cannot but express it.
A farmer offends the bear child next door. You may also be hit with a stone on the window at night when you are humming with your wife.
Moreover, it was the king who had a heavy army to blame.
It doesn't matter if you're doing it, the key is that you're making an attitude.
So, discounted prices for magical substances, expatriate mages, thirty magic apprentice exchange places, and so on.
A series of benefits Dalaran is prescribed.
Carlos is not a particularly pretentious person, not to mention that Elucia herself is a disciple of Antonidas.
The benefits are received, and the matter is over.
Except before leaving. Own son Alex. Barov's face of "You kid has something to hide from me", Alterac sang and danced.
The course of history has changed because of the big apple of Carlos. Some of the secrets are still valid, and some of the knowledge can no longer be relied upon.
When the battle comes to this, Carlos can't make any predictions, and the rest is to rely on real skills.
Including the route of the march this time.
Sylvie had news that the Orcs had abandoned many of their outer defenses and had drawn a large number of troops back to the Burning Plains. And it seems that there are signs of a rush inside, and the Morgan sentry is under great pressure.
The news from Ironforge also confirms this.
Magni. Copperbeard is not the kind of good gentleman who swallows his anger and does everything for the sake of the overall situation. At the height of their strength, the tribe reached the foot of the Ironforge Hill and bombarded it with trebuchets and dwarven steam tanks. And the orcs are in decline, and His Majesty the King of Ironforge Fort directly played a F2A heroism. Take advantage of the darkness of night to recapture seven dwarven bunkers overnight.
If it weren't for the fact that Anweimar, an important transportation fortress, was still in the hands of the orcs, Magni would have been willing to go north to support the Alliance's main force in the wetlands.
At present, the biggest problem of shackling the dwarves is the shortage of supplies caused by the long-term blockade of the orcs, not the lack of troops.
That's why Carlos dared to go to Ironforge with a ticket.
As soon as he got out of the hill and sent the letter, Magni had to send troops to answer it.
This is a tacit understanding between the king and the king.
Carlos actually had the intention of taking 20,000 men directly south to join Magni.
However, marching and fighting is not a game on a sand table.
The supply of supplies, the route of the march, the distribution of troops, and even the reaction of the Dragonmaw Clan must all be taken into account.
As a result, Carlos had an army of 70,000 in his hands, and in the end he could only travel with a thousand men.
The reason is simple, there is not enough cotton jacket.
Even if the humans of Azeroth are physically strong, Danmoro is not a paradise for humans, and the huge temperature difference between day and night and the snow in the mountains cannot be resisted by eating alone.
And Lothar didn't think about becoming a big fat man in one go, and the first phase of the alliance transported to the wetlands was not only soldiers, but also food and weapons and other materials.
With the Alterac family alone, Carlos couldn't conjure up these cold supplies.
You know, the wetlands on a July day, it's so hot and humid that people don't even want to wear underwear, where do you go to find winter clothes?
In the first phase of the campaign, the goal of the alliance is very clear, with the port of Minahir as the support point, first kill the Grimbaatar occupied by the Dragonthroat Clan, and then send troops to work with Fort Riptide and the remaining troops of the dwarves to open the communication line of the Saldo Bridge first.
As long as the Saldo Bridge is in hand, the hundreds of thousands of troops basking in the sun in Hilbride will be able to move in minutes.
Otherwise, just relying on warships to transport troops, it will be the Year of the Monkey.
Because Carlos's outpost in the wetlands had been operating almost two months in advance and had repaired the road for almost two hundred miles, Lothar praised Carlos for his foresight and sent ten medals for Carlos to look at.
Carlos also understood that Lothar was now seeking stability, and before dealing with the wetland communication line, it was estimated that a large-scale battle with the orcs would not be able to fight, so he had this trip to Ironforge Fort.
"Your Majesty, the orcs still have a lot of troops outside the Iron Forge Fort, so I'm afraid it's not good for us to walk over in a daze."
There was still half a day's way to go, and the team could get out of the mountain road, and Ymir couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart, the Carlos he knew was not a reckless person.
Sitting by the campfire, Carlos folded the letters in his hand and put them away neatly, before slowly turning his head and saying to his confidant: "Don't disrupt the pace, how can we fish in troubled waters." (To be continued.) )
