12. Broken resistance

Tyrion's orders were not simply given to Sarufar.

At the same time, the order was received by the Death Lords scattered in other battlefields in Northern Xinjiang, and in less than 30 minutes, the flames of war in the four battlefields in the entire Northern Xinjiang were ignited again almost simultaneously.

In Gilneth, Hinterland, the Arathi Highlands and the Tirisfal Woodlands, the smoke of war under the sunshine of this day completely shattered the last tranquility of the entire northern Xinjiang.

"It came a little too suddenly."

The three lords of Glokush, Sarufar, and Rogoglio walked side by side, and in front of the city of Andorhar, which had been controlled by the Dark Blade, the air and ground power of the undead had already been assembled, and Rogorio's Hammerfire Warband would set off from Andorhar to the eastern part of Stratholme, although according to the human vampires, by the time the undead arrived, there should be no civilians in those big cities.

However, a huge human province can never be completely abandoned, there must be some humans in that place who are holding on, and with Roglio's understanding of the High Elves, even if the Sun King orders the evacuation, there must be many High Elves who will die on the position of the Queldorin Hut, and those soldiers and civilians who hold on are Roglio's targets,

Hinterland's artillery unit has been taken over by Celent and is currently storming the Hammer Fort on Eagle's Nest Mountain.

The two warbands of Sarufar and Glokush had to go all the way west, breaking the defense line of the Silver Hand Paladins of the Tirisfa barrier, entering the Tirisfa region, and intercepting human immigrants in the Whispering Coast and the North Coast of Lordaeron, where it is said that an objective number of humans are gathering, and the Human Emperor and King Lordaeron are there, so it is obvious that they cannot be let go so easily.

"What the hell is going on? Sarufar, I just heard that humans made portals? ”

Grokush looked at his countryman, and he asked in a low voice:

"Is there some inside story here?"

Although Roglio did not speak, his long ears were also pricked up, and it was clear that he was also suspicious of the trigger behind the sudden outbreak of war.

But Sarufar was not a gossip man, he just said on a case-by-case basis:

"yes, so big, so many, so scattered portal fluctuations appeared at the same time, our warlock group should be able to detect it, but they didn't... You say, "Why didn't they detect it?" ”

This meaningful rhetorical question caused Glokush and Rogrio to look at each other, and finally the High Elf said:

"It's certainly not undetected, it's impossible for all the warlock regiments to become deaf at the same time... So the most likely explanation is that someone deliberately tampered with the report, let's guess, Khadgar? ”

"Heh, that's almost no guesswork."

Glokush sneered, turned over and sat down on his own bone dragon, and said to his two companions:

"Hasn't Khadgar's dissatisfaction with the system we have built together been a day or two, and is he now finally going to leave everything behind and return to his "homeland"? ”

"No, it's not that simple, Glokush."

Roglio frowned and said:

"Even if Khadgar wants to rebel, he will not choose this moment, his intelligence is not so inferior, it can only be said that he may have his own plans, anyway, I think that Khadgar complains and complains, he does not really want to betray the system."

"He's just like us!"

Sarufar said conclusively:

"He's just trying to make the system better, but alas, he's probably using the wrong method... Tyrion went to him himself, and no one knows what the outcome will be, so let's do our own thing, guys. ”

"Then I'll go first."

Rogrio breathed a sigh of relief, he glanced in the direction of Quel'Thalas, pulled the reins of the bone dragon, and in a low roar, the bone beast that was full of death energy slowly rose into the air in the flap of the huge bone wings, and behind him, dozens of bone dragons and undead wyverns also rose into the air together, and on the ground, the dwarven death knights belonging to the Hammerfire War Regiment also drove their war horses and blackened battle tanks out of the gates of Andohar with a roar.

They will storm the eastern side of Stratholm and then wipe it out completely.

"Let's go, there's a fierce battle ahead."

Grokush spoke, and the two Death Lords rose into the air at the same time, and as Andohar below was getting smaller and smaller, Glokush suddenly said:

"Why don't I fight the vanguard?"

"No, you don't need to!"

Sarufar shook his head:

"I know what you're worried about, Glokush, I'm not that fragile yet... If he really wants to come, then let him come, I know I'm doing the right thing, and that's enough. ”

There was a silence between the two, and in the howling wind, Grokush buckled his black helmet to his head, and he said angrily:

"Let's change the subject, what do you say, what will happen to Khadgar? He might die, I guess... You tell me? ”

"I don't think so."

A glint flashed in Sarufar's eyes, and he said slowly:

"It's not that I don't have faith in Tyrion, I'm thinking about the other side, you say, a smart guy like Khadgar, when he decides to do something, I don't believe it, he won't leave a way out for himself, you know what I mean? I don't think Khadgar will survive. ”

He stretched out his finger, pointed to his head, and lowered his voice:

"In a way, Tyrion is a man of affection, and if Khadgar is smart enough, he might make it through this unscathed, and to be honest, I really don't think Khadgar would betray us, he's not that stupid... On top of that, like Tyrion, he's an idealist. ”

"Idealist?"

Glokush pursed his lips:

"When you say that, it's... It's like, hey, lo and behold, the paladins are lined up and waiting for us! Speaking of which, did you use the new armor that was just issued? ”

Sarufar shook his head:

"Didn't find the right opponent, what about you?"

"Me too, but those paladins down there look pretty good, so let's try these iron guys, I've heard Luminas say it's really great to be on the battlefield in this way..."

As he spoke, Grokush picked up a heavy steel box from behind his Saddle of Bone Dragons, the thing was as tall as his whole person, and a line was written on it in Salas, "Darkblade II Armament - Experimental Type 04", which the Orc Deathlord held in his hand and shook it:

"Hey, this thing is so heavy..."

Behind him, the whizzing Death Knights pulled the reins of their mounts and rained down from the sky towards the Tirisfa barrier between the two cols below, where thousands of paladins were stationed, and on either side of the col, soldiers from Lordaeron had set up the engineering machine guns that the gnomes had made for them in the stone fort, as well as an adequate number of steam tanks.

This is the choke point from Stratholm to the Tirisfa, once it is lost, the entire Tirisfa region will be safe, and the Marshal of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, Gathris, is here, and he has promised the king that as long as he is here, this last bulwark of Lordaeron will never fall.

"Sky! The undead have attacked from the sky! ”

Shrill shouts and terrible sirens resounded through the ramparts at this moment, and as the Death Knights rushed down, between the stone forts on either side of the col, the repeating machine guns were raised into the sky, and then like the muffled sound of cloth tearing, the artwork of gunpowder and steel, like a curtain of light connected together, was smashed into the sky of the opponents.

In such a barrage offensive, every minute and every second, the knight's mount was hit, spun into the position below the rampart, and then was overwhelmed by the attacking soldiers and paladins, and before the land power of the two warbands approached, the undead side was at least numerically disadvantaged.

"That's it! Keep on the offensive and disrupt the rhythm of their attacks! ”

Field Marshal Gathiris stood on the steam tank at the rear of the position, he wore his armor and watched the movement of the frostbone dragon in the sky with a telescope, there were several stone fort machine guns that kept an eye on the big guys, and once they had a dive action, the bullets soaked in holy water would fire at these huge fortress destroyers from all directions.

Bullets do little damage to the bulky undead, but once they are enveloped in a rain of bullets, the artillery placed on the battle line has a target for attack.

Marshal Gasiris had apparently also learned new tactics from the advances in armament of the undead, and he had the confidence to crush an opponent ten times his own in a battlefield where valiant knights, steam tanks, and engineering weapons intertwined, and with the advantage of the terrain.

This confidence, which seemed a little blind with the blessing of courage, lasted until the moment when two black strange warriors quickly smashed into the Imperial Front from the sky.

"What's that? Humanoid machines? ”

General Gaseris adjusted the magnification of the telescope, and finally saw the image of the two steel monsters.

It looked like a tall warrior covered with a layer of steel armor, two guys fell from the sky and smashed into the position, smashing the solid earth into two dents, the black armor covering the surface of the body had no sign of any power, and on the top of the head of the rough machinery with uneven layers and sparks of gear collision could be seen in some places, were two war helmets molded into horns.

There was no sign of a weapon on the two steel machines, and their struggling movements in the hail of bullets had a hint of mechanical jerkiness, and between the sparks and movements, strange white gas had been spewing out of various parts of the armor like steam.

"Well, this feels a little weird."

Grokush's ten fingers moved, and along with the movement of his fingers, covering his fingers, and the steel fingers driven by gears and bearings also moved a few times, he just mastered the essence of this mode of action, his body squatted slightly, and after a roar, he jumped out of the depression of the ground like a charging warrior.

"Boom"

Between the collision of the gears of the full-covered armor on his body, the sudden burst of power made Glokush a little uncontrollable in his actions, and at the moment of stumbling to the ground, the two unlucky paladins flew directly out with their waving arms, and in the screams of the paladins, the orc death lord moved his neck, and his fists clenched at this moment.

"Bang, bang"

The engine of the steam tank, which had been shrunk and placed behind the steel armor, was activated at this moment, and four thick white air currents erupted from the holes in his fists, and the orc felt the power in his fists, and he roared and swung his fist above his head, and then slammed it into the deck of the steam tank roaring in front of him.

"Bang"

Two clear fist prints appeared on the strongest forward deck of the tank, and the endless brute force of those fists, the endless power caused by the machinery, was at this moment, brutally stopped the forward tank in place, and the sudden stillness even made the rear of the tank warped.

"Aha! I like it! I know how it works! ”

Glokush's shouts spread throughout the battlefield, and the next moment, more columns of steam air erupted from the exhaust port of this armor, and in the simultaneous output of the four steam engines in the whole body, the steam tank struggling in front of Glokush's eyes was actually held by him with his arms, and lifted up from the ground little by little.

This terrifying scene froze the soldiers who followed the tank charge, and also made the eyes of Marshal Gasseris, who was watching the scene, widen the eyes of Marshal Gasseris, whose steel armor collided with the steam, and in the roar of the steam engine, he spun around in place, like throwing a shot put, and threw the tank into the mountain wall to the left of the Tirisfa rampart.

With a roar, the tank smashed into the mountain, completely destroying the three stone forts hidden in it at once.

"I love it! Really, my strength has been strengthened at least 3 times! Mechanical, it's amazing! ”

Grokush, wielding his steel armor, turned to Sarufar behind him and said:

"Those goblins cost us 3 million gold coins a year, but now it looks like this... Great value for money! ”

Sarufar didn't answer immediately, he manipulated his left hand, stretched his fingers behind his back, and in the movement of the gears behind the steel armor, a heavy black long sword with terrifying saw chains on both sides, fell into his hand, and at the moment when the giant saw chain sword was activated, endless sparks lit up in front of Sarufar's eyes, he stepped forward and said to Glokush:

"It's over, man, I'm still waiting to get to Lordaeron..."

After speaking, he stepped forward, and between the jets of the white steam column, in the roar of Sarufar, this hideous saw chain sword slashed fiercely at the steam tank that crashed into him, and between the sharp friction sound of curses that made all living beings gnash their teeth, the strongest land battle king of the human empire, the steam tank full of deadly weapons, was so hard and completely cut from the center in the stunned gaze of countless soldiers!

"I'm sorry, but the game of war on horseback ... Today, it's over! ”
