Chapter 123: Changes in the Situation
Selin: "Talenmere is heavily besieged and the battle is very fierce, but depending on the situation, although the defenders of Talenmere are suppressed, they are not without the slightest strength to fight back!" If nothing else, it won't be breached in a short time! ”
"The Alliance besieging there is not at all like the main elite forces of the Alliance coming from Stormwind or Yenhaven. Judging by their clothing, it should be the militia of the former South Sea Town garrison and the town of Hillsbrad! After speaking, he looked at Xie Feng and said suspiciously~
"What about the alliance army in Nanhai Town? Where are they? You can't run to attack the Undercity, can you? ”
After listening to these pieces of information and connecting all the clues together, Xie Feng frowned and thought carefully for a while, and finally had some eyebrows. But instead of saying it directly, he asked Galinder:
"What do you think?"
Garinde looked at Xie Feng a little embarrassed and said in a low voice:
"That, my lord, I don't know much about some of the situations here at all~ There is no way to judge!"
Xie Feng: "Forget it~ Let's talk about it myself!" You guys add that! ”
He had forgotten that Selin had a good understanding of the situation in the hills because he had seen it before, and had read the information he had goblins from and the so-called Hillsbrad Evening News. But it's only a partial understanding. Galinde has been trapped in Hinterland for a long time, and it is not bad for her to know that there are several forces in the Hillsbrad Hills, Xie Feng asked her opinion at all, and she had no choice but to use her brain~
"Let's start with the Union forces besieging Talummere."
"Judging by the time, it takes three hours for a scout to run at full strength from Tarummere to Southsea Town, and about two hours if there is a mount."
"Before I left, the commander of the Undead Force in Tarummere and the High Archon Dasalia had already discovered the movements of Southsea Town, and began to set it up that night. And the alliance forces in South Sea Town have been planning for so long, it is impossible not to pay attention to the situation in Talenmir, and such a big movement has already reached the alliance commander. ”
"It takes a while to assemble and prepare for battle before the army is dispatched, and fighting at night is beneficial to the undead troops, and the best way to lose the advantage of sneak attack is to gather troops at night, send troops at dawn, and attack in the morning!"
"We set out from Talummere at dawn, and there were no Forsaken scouts to report on the movements of the Alliance forces before that. If the other party also sent troops at dawn, by the time the scouts came, the army would have already covered more than half of the distance. In other words, shortly after we left, near the ruins of the old castle, the Southsea Alliance began attacking Tarummere! ”
"What do you think the Forsaken will do when they find out that the Alliance is on a massive offensive and that it is impossible to hold Tarummir due to the disparity in strength between the two sides?" Xie Feng asked to Selin and Galinde.
"If there are other forces in the same camp nearby, then call for help, and if not, retreat!" Garinder said first.
Xie Feng nodded, she was not familiar with the current situation and couldn't make a clear judgment at all, and then he looked at Selin, who was thinking.
For this subordinate whom he trusts the most and is also the most talented, Xie Feng still attaches great importance to him. As a player, he will inevitably have to run around in the future, and during this time, he must have a capable assistant to help him stabilize his power among the aborigines. Selin is the obvious choice!
Strong, the first old man to follow him, and with a stable position, according to Liadrin's plan to let him lead his army into the Wraith Lands, his tactical command ability will not be much worse. The most important thing is his loyalty!!
With Xie Feng, who had trained him to be the number one soldier he was in charge of when he was out, he began to consciously give him some tasks that were relatively tedious and tedious, but could improve his prestige, and even handed over his soldiers to him for training. At this time, he began to adapt to the position of a commander~~
"Tarummere is a special geographical location, and the forsaken cannot give up easily, and the path of retreat can be ruled out."
"The closest undead stronghold to Tarummere is Thurberchel. However, there are not many garrisons there, and there are strong enemies around, so there is absolutely no way to come to support. Sending troops from the Dark City is far away and the water is difficult to save the thirsty. The only ones who can rush to support in a short period of time are the orc Frostwolf clan in the valley of Alterac to the north! Selin analyzed them one by one.
"Then why did the Frostwolf Clan appear under the walls of Thoradin to fight with the dwarves of Dengalok?" Xie Feng then asked.
Selin thought for a moment, then shook his head in frustration.
Xie Feng then prompted: "Think about it carefully, where did the alliance's more than 10,000 troops go? Why are the scrapwood militias of Southsea and Hillsbride able to surround the elite Talummere undead sentinel forces there? ”
"Judging by the timing, the Alliance's attack on Tarummir should be before the frostwolf orcs come to their aid. In the meantime, the Forsaken will surely suffer heavy losses in the face of an enemy several times their size, so it is not difficult to explain that they are besieged by those waste wood militias! Selin said as Xie Feng prompted.
"With the elite troops of the Frostwolf Clan to assist in the defense, it is almost impossible for Tarummir to be breached, even if it is forcibly attacked, it will be time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the final result will be a defeat for both sides, and the Alliance army is likely to be wiped out by the rescuers who came to support the Undercity! So they will give up and continue to attack ~ change the target ~~"
Xie Feng: "So where will they go?" ”
Selin suddenly realized and said in high spirits: "Arashi! They'll go to Arathi and join the Arathso coalition to exterminate the Polluter Legion and the Orcs of Hammerfall! That's why the Frostwolf Orcs and the Dwarves of Dangalok fight in the Walls of Soladin! ”
"The alliance forces rushed into Arathi, hoping to destroy the tribal forces there in one fell swoop with superior forces and monopolize the high ground! The dwarves of Dhangalok are here to block all the tribal reinforcements and retreats! That's why there will be a big battle with the Frostwolf Clan who went to Arathi to rescue! ”
"Also, those syndicate thieves who often raid the past merchants of Nanhai Town are also afraid that they will be wiped out when the alliance army passes, so they will withdraw from the ruins of the old castle!"
Serin followed Xie Feng's prompt, swept the whole context of the incident, and said his judgment with an excited expression.
But not long after he finished speaking, his face suddenly turned sideways, and he said with a little doubt~
"But in this case, if any reinforcement from the Undercity comes, the siege of Tarummere will be resolved. At that time, the empty alliance in the rear, the town of South Seas and the town of Hillsbrad, will hardly have the slightest resistance, and the army of the undead can sweep the entire hill and then attack Arathi with the orc alliance, so that the alliance will not be able to take care of each other? The best outcome is to retreat into the wetlands. Speaking of which, Selin has almost overturned all the previous inferences.
Xie Feng smiled and said, "So, what if the Dark City is a reinforcement, it won't be able to come?" ”
Selin was stunned: "How is it possible?" ”
"Why can't it be?" Xie Feng asked rhetorically:
"There are three ways to get from the Undercity to the Hillsbrad Hills. The first is the path we take. ”
"The Dalaran mages there are not as weak as we think! Although the city-state was destroyed by Akmund, the core Violet Castle was not damaged much, and the most elite mage troops were still there. If you want to destroy the Undercity reinforcements, you can't block that road for a while! ”
"The second way: take the Undead Barrier, cross the Western Plague, and enter the hills from Icewind Hills. This road is even more! The Scarlet Crusader Lord of Hearthvale Tyran Ferding and the Undead of Andohal are at loggerheads. If you're stirred into it by the Forsaken, don't even think about coming out again! The Queen of Darkness isn't stupid enough to do that! ”
"The third is to cross Lake Lordamere and go around the Alterac Mountains into the hills. There are two more paths here. To the left, you pass the syndicate lair of Steinbly, which has been run by the exiled nobles of Alterac for many years, and it is difficult for the Forsaken to open the gap in a short period of time. On the right side of the road is the Dalaran Crater, which is still not easy to pass. ”
"In this case, will there be any reinforcements in the Hills Bled Hills anytime soon?"
Hearing this, Selin was stunned for a while, thought for a while, and asked again:
"What about the frostwolf orcs? If they return to attack the alliances that have trapped Talummir, won't they be shattered with a single blow? ”
Xie Feng shook his head again and smiled bitterly: "If only it were as you said!" ”
"Let's not talk about whether the dwarves of Dangalok will easily let the frost wolf orcs leave, even if the dwarves can't chase after them, do you think the orcs can go to Talummir to fight together?"
"Maybe the Thunderspear Dwarves have appeared in the Aoshan Valley now!"
As soon as the words fell, the Ranger Vorelle walked in from outside and said to Xie Feng:
"My lord! The scouts have just sent an emergency military situation~ The orcs in front of the wall of Soladin have evacuated urgently, leaving a small number of troops in the ruins of the old castle to contain the dwarves, and the large army will all retreat to the Alterac Mountains, and according to the distance, they will soon come to us! ”
Xie Feng was speechless for a while when he heard this, and looked at Selin, who also had a dull expression, and couldn't help but scold~
"My CTM's Thunderspear is deflated three!!"
