The kingdom of Alterac is destroyed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Orgrim cleverly restrained the number of orcs attacking.

Three thousand, half elite and half miscellaneous soldiers, more than two thousand orcs, and many trolls and dozens of ogres.

It's a number that tests Duke's mental level.

Duke has been effectively carrying out a lethal strategy with a high exchange ratio, and Orgrim has seen this, so at Shattered Ridge, Orgrim attacks with forces that almost tease Duke.

The alpine terrain of Alterac is a natural hazard for humans, but not for tribes. Duke only sent the Knights of the Silver Hand to break off with the Windranger sisters, and did not defend it.

Duke's decision turned out to be right.

General Haas, who had stayed not far from Duke's side, was grim at the sight of a number of white and blue trolls climbing the cliffs around Shattered Ridge that Haas had long considered to be cliffs, and throwing spears at the paladins below.

"They are the Frostmane Trolls, an offshoot of the Frost Trolls who have been operating on the Damoro of the Copperbeard Dwarves before. Now it seems that it has also been recruited by the Horde. Duke said lightly.

Haas could almost imagine that if he held on, the paladin might still be able to withstand it, but the average human warrior would surely collapse quickly under such a three-dimensional blow.

In the summer, Alterac was unprotected by snowfall, and after the Paladins of the Silver Hand withdrew, the entire king quickly burst into flames.

The warriors of the tribe roared loudly, celebrating destruction and conquest.

"Humph!" Duke's facial muscles twitched a little as he saw the orcs pulling out large quantities of frozen meat and other grains from the cellar.

In the cold of Alterac, digging two meters into the ground is the frozen soil, which is the perfect place to make an ice cellar.

Most of the tribe are fishy and unscrupulous, and this batch of meat will obviously be a strong support for the tribe's attack on Lordaeron.

Duke couldn't help but sigh, but still gave Orgrim a hand.

Although the situation is not as bad as it was in the past, it is not much better.

In the original timeline, the Second Battle of the Dark Gate completely changed the kingdom of Alterac and the fate of the Barov family. The treacherous King Aiden surrendered to the orc army and launched a counterattack against the Alliance's forces, who continued to incite peasant revolts in Alliance-controlled areas. The rebels repeatedly harassed the Dalaran Kingdom forces in the Hillsbrad area, preventing them from supporting the Union forces fighting on other fronts.

Soon, the actions of the Alterac Kingdom aroused the wrath of the mage Dalaran, who quickly and decisively dispatched an army to completely destroy the Alterac Kingdom and raze the entire Alterac Kingdom to the ground. This is the ruins of Alterac in later generations.

Ten minutes later, Duke saw the Knights of the Silver Hand, who were not too scarred, and the Windranger Sisters, who were covered in sweat.

Uther seemed a little dissatisfied: "Deputy Commander, why did you send a retreat signal so early, we can still kill more tribes." ”

In Duke's view, Uther was not a qualified commander. His power of control is limited, and his vision of the big picture is inadequate. He was like the most perfect saint, spurring everyone forward with an almost strict faith. Uther is indeed the most perfect banner, but it does not mean that everyone wants to live a more puritan life than a puritan. More often than not, Duke only uses Uther as a fierce general.

Duke smiled faintly: "This is not a good place for a decisive battle. Let's say you can kill 100 Tribal Warriors in an hour somewhere else, and here you can only kill 40. Leave your strength behind, the battle still has to be fought. Pack up, and we'll set off for Lordaeron at once, and if we don't leave, the tribe will rush to your hometown before us." ”

Not only Uther, but also Saidan and Tirio, the paladins from Lordaeron, jumped in unison.

Ignoring the paladins, Duke turned to General Haas and said, "Bring me the Knights of the Mountain Eagle and all the infantry you can muster." ”

Haas was stunned, and he turned his head to look at the Alterac refugees in the distance, winding their way on the long and winding mountain road to the distance: "What about the people of Alterac?"

"Give it to the local garrison. ”

"What if the Horde attacks them?" Haas and several other Alterac generals were anxious.

Duke's eyes sharpened, and his fierce gaze reminded Haas of the mountain eagle soaring on the snowy mountain, about to pounce on the snow to feed on the rabbit: "I've been fighting Orgrim for so long, I don't know what he's going to do?" Maybe they'll arrive faster than we all thought. ”

Illusia's eyes were red, and she silently stood in the line behind Duke. She knew best what Duke meant. Her two goddamn younger brothers are serving as a leader for the tribe, and with the two of them leading the way, the main force of the tribe will pass through the Alterac Mountains at a more terrifying speed.

Duke guessed right.

All the main forces of Orgrim, except for the detachment of the rear of 5,000, had already begun to march in the afternoon.

As the Barov brothers say, these roads were abandoned by the Alterac army.

Even if there were some bunkers that were occasionally stuck in the main road, when the Barov brothers roared a few times with the contract book they had obtained from King Aiden, the defenders in the bunkers quickly retreated.

This is an era of closed news. Except for the commanders, kings, and generals of the Alliance, there is no one who is eligible for magical teleportation. The vast majority of messages are still delivered by stagecoaches.

The minor nobles didn't know that their lord was hanging, but after seeing the lord's signature and fire seal, they quickly evacuated the bunker.

Orgrim was able to quickly lead his warriors through these narrow levels.

He thought that the Barov brothers should be of some use, and now he happily found out that he was right in his idea.

The road ahead remains very dangerous.

Orcs and trolls don't mind climbing mountains, but ogres have a lot of trouble, and without Gugar, their movements are much sluggish. Stone trails like this, as long as a few soldiers block the way, once the corpses pile up, the ogres will not be able to pass in any form.

Orgrim was reluctant to give up on ogres, especially the two-headed ogre warriors. So, he urged his army to move forward quickly. He knew that when his army crossed the mountains, no one would be able to stop the Horde's great axe from slashing into the heart of the Alliance.

Once he succeeds, the trapped Grom Hellroar Drifter in the Silverpine Forest will be freed. With what he knew about humanity, most of them would rather give up large swathes of land in order to mobilize all their forces to defend their capital. (To be continued.) )
