Chapter 181: What to do after the break? (Asking for a monthly pass)
From the telescope, looking at the bloody battlefield, at the orc laborers who were marching to death in a groan of pain, Anduin and Bovar were dumbfounded. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hell, this goblin thing makes me feel like I've been practicing martial arts for decades in vain. Anduin's mouth twitched, as if he was thirsty from uneasiness.
"Duke, how much did you order? I want more of this [Iron Grenade]. "Bolval is more direct, and the lion opens his mouth as soon as he comes up.
Duke smiled and handed over a price list, which listed the unit price of the [Iron Grenade], as well as the unit price that required the goblins to work overtime to produce and skyrocketed. What's more, Duke specifically marked it out - the already terrible rate of dumb fire and the chance of an early explosion will soar into the sky because of the rush.
That's right, in this era when there is no mechanized large-scale production and everything is done by hand, how high can we expect the yield rate to be?
As long as it is a human being, it will make mistakes, it will be tired, and the accuracy of each product will be different.
And the goblins' lack of rigor methods dooms all the products made by these damn and whimsical guys to be extremely dangerous.
Bowall's conscience did not allow him to allow his soldiers and militia to take such risks. If you don't kill the enemy, but you kill yourself first, then there is really no place to cry.
Anduin, on the contrary, said, "We should comfort ourselves like this." Yo, a box of grenades is enough for us to arm a militia regiment. ”
Duke smiled: "The militia has to go through a long time of training, and this thing only needs to be trained for half a day. ”
That's right. Ordinary infantry training requires long-term combat training to be somewhat successful. Even so, the survival rate of new recruits entering the battlefield is still so low that it is a headache for any commander.
Not to mention the human beings who are already at a physical disadvantage, the strength, speed, and agility of the human recruits are probably similar to the hard labor that the orcs use as cannon fodder. It's quite far from a formal orc warrior. Moreover, the other side is not an ordinary orc soldier, and after fighting for so long, the human commander with a little brain knows that the opposite side is the elite of the powerful clan among the orcs, the Blackstone clan.
That said, but always had a bit of a toothache.
Boval gasped: "I feel that what you smashed out is His Majesty's gold coins!"
Duke shrugged: "War itself is about money. ”
Anduin pouted, "I've noticed for a long time that you and we have a completely different way of thinking. I sometimes wonder if you're from Azeroth. ”
Duke was noncommittal.
What does this make Duke say? Say he's a traverser? That's a real hehehe.
The reclamation of the river against the orc laborers, the archers who had long been deemed useless to the orcs were pulled out again. Archers also have a fatal weakness, and at night, the archers' power is still greatly diminished even if they shoot with coverage.
The appearance of iron grenades has greatly enriched the strategy and tactics of human beings. After all, archers have to aim, and a grenade is a piece when it explodes!
Over time, the orcs also discovered the drawbacks of the Iron Grenade. These loud bumps of iron pose a great threat to the orc laborers. But for true orc warriors, especially those with more armor, it is not a fatal injury.
The fragments of the explosion had a hard time penetrating the muscles of these tall orc warriors, and as long as they were not hit, they were mostly just skin wounds.
At Orgrim's suggestion, the Great Chief Black Hand agreed to better arm the orc warriors who attacked the walls.
So over the next few days, Lothar saw orc warriors who had stripped off a large amount of cowhide, pieces of iron, and even the armor of dead human warriors and tied them to their bodies in a piece of makeshift armor.
The orcs were protected, and half of the iron grenade, which was originally relatively lethal, was gone. It's become a less lethal weapon.
Lothar asked Duke, "Do those damn greenskins have anything more powerful?"
Duke silently handed over the unit price of the [High Explosive Bomb], which required a large amount of silver to make, and was ceremoniously recommended by the profiteer Sherlock.
Lothar was stunned for more than ten seconds, and finally said, "The weather is so nice today." ”
Well, it was a noon with heat and thunderstorms, and thanks to the thunderstorm, all the bowstrings had almost lost their elasticity due to the humidity.
It's a tug-of-war.
However, the scales of victory still tipped in favor of the orcs. When Orgrim had the orc laborers wear thick leather armor or lots of thick clothing to restart the river reclamation plan. Lothar knew something was wrong.
On the seventh day after Duke secured the Bloodsail Pirate Detachment, the entire moat to the east and north of Stormwind was filled.
The orcs even used orc hard work to pile up stones in many places to build a straight slope leading to the urn city in front of the city wall.
The good urn city has almost become a trap. Orgrim seems to be addicted to piles of dirt, and he still has a lot of orc laborers rushing through.
"Throw the stone into those big pits of the human race, and if you can't come back, then you throw yourself into it too. "This is Orgrim's death order to these 'weak' and worthless orc laborers.
As a direct result, the number of orc labor deaths on the orc side has skyrocketed.
At first, the humans also tried to clear some orc business every night, or dig up some slopes. But Stormwind is severely lacking in heavy machinery. Not only is the goblin excavator expensive to hire, but Sherlock says he doesn't want his men to risk their men driving 'expensive' robots into a city that is destined to fall.
Unless......
Sherlock rubbed his thumb, index finger, and middle finger again, the dead money pose, you know.
Duke was dragged down. Just as he had imagined, the Tribe soon discovered the Stormwind Dead. That's just north of Stormwind, near Stormwind Harbor.
Unlike the steep and frenzied valley cliffs in the south. The mountain path north of Stormwind is a Jedi for humans, but it's not a dead end for orcs who are good at climbing mountains.
On the first two occasions, the orcs also managed to send down a few scouts, causing a commotion among the soldiers and civilians of Stormwind. Immediately, King Ryan decisively let Duke, who was the strongest fighter in Stormwind City, sit on the top of that mountain. Finally stopped the possibility of the orcs attacking from that side.
The sea is the domain of the Kurtilas warship and Duke.
Even though the average number of people who can be transported away is more than 10,000 per day, the situation is still going straight down. After more than twenty days of hard work for the soldiers and civilians of Stormwind City, the biggest problem for the soldiers and civilians of Ryan and the broken queen still came.
Excluding those who were evacuated and killed in battle, there are still 100,000 people left who have not left, and the 50,000 people who have finally broken off, according to Lothar's estimates, will not be able to escape. The orcs, who had already had red eyes, could not let the humans evacuate safely at the rate of 10,000 people a day.
In the vicinity of Storm Harbor, which is a lifeline, there is no fulcrum like Storm Fortress.
