Chapter 1323: Retreat as Advance
"The Art of War", as the top work that reveals the laws of competition, shows a novel concept that has never been seen in the world of Azeroth, and when a series of profound strategic concepts such as "wisdom and strength", "softness and strength", and "victory without a fight" are displayed, Varian quickly indulges in it.
At the same time, through the profound philosophical concepts such as "convincing people with virtue" and "the unity of heaven and man", Varian is even more fascinated.
Before Duke's crossing, the influence of this masterpiece had far exceeded the country, and many famous foreign strategists were intoxicated and indulged in the vast and profound traditional Chinese strategic culture.
This masterpiece not only transcends borders, but also transcends time and space. As British Air Marshal John Slesser put it in his essay "Military Proverbs in China": "What is fascinating about Sun Tzu is that his thinking is astonishingly 'up-to-date' – with a slight change of words, his proverbs seem to have just been written yesterday." ”
This masterpiece is no longer a war book in the simple sense of the word, but has become a must-read for leaders in the political, economic, and diplomatic fields. Sun Tzu's ideas have been widely applied not only in the modern military field but also in various fields such as politics, economics, diplomacy, and sports.
For such a sacred book, or a divine book that Duke had explained in common language, Varian almost instantly recognized that it was the legendary 'holy text'.
Looking at this holy text, Varian's small frustration that he had just caused by his wrong choice was suddenly swept away, and his eyes contained a brighter light than before, as if a raging flame was burning.
At some point, Magni came over, and even the other kings came to watch, until Duke slapped Varian and Magni on the shoulder, which woke them up.
"Alright! Cthun isn't dead yet, so let's get out of the way. ”
If it was in the past, Duke said this, Varian would have to ask why he didn't go on with all the rage, but the concept of 'retreat as advance' that he had just seen strongly stimulated Varian's thoughts.
The top of the alliance quickly reached an agreement to withdraw first.
Since it is a coalition army, it must be difficult to challenge such a big thing as the ancient god Cthun. Even with Duke, a demigod, in charge, it is not safe.
After all, no one knows to what extent Cthun's power has recovered, but from Cthun's two shots, one to fly, and one to blow up a small half of Naxxramas, it is clear that the power of this ancient evil god is still incomplete.
It is true that the Alliance can directly enter the bottom of the Angela Temple without waiting for the tribe. Maybe you can take advantage of the fact that Cthun's strength has not fully recovered.
But what if you win?
You may be able to get a good batch of equipment, but who said that the alliance powerhouse group will not die?
It is precisely because the alliance is now stable over the tribe in terms of the quantity and quality of the strong, as well as the national strength and military strength, that there is an alliance-based coalition army, and if the alliance sacrifices too much, it will only cheapen the tribe next.
Varian suddenly understood the meaning of Duke's retreat first.
Duke smiled and turned back to Gianna, "You go out first and inform the advance force of the coalition forces, and immediately evacuate from the beetle wall to the temple of the temple." At the same time, it is ready to use 24-hour continuous artillery fire to cover the road from the Beetle Gate to the ruins of Angela. ”
Almost as soon as the Alliance heroes returned to Naxxramas, the Temple of Angela erupted with the most terrifying insect infestation on record.
"Holy! again!"
On the floating fortress, all kinds of chaotic sounds drowned out everything.
The sound of orders, the sound of angry curses, and then the roar of artillery fire, which was the strongest voice of the fortress, sounded.
No one knew whether it was the sound of artillery that alarmed the swarm or whether the swarm attracted the fire. Almost as the cannonballs rained down on the temple of Angela, bugs the size of a small truck burst out of the temple with their teeth and claws.
They were like a black carpet that covered the entire ground, staining the yellow earth a creepy, sensational black.
They burst out of the temple and formed a huge curtain wall like waves, and they charged wildly and quickly, even ignoring the wails of their companions, and trampling their feet to the bottom of their slower companions. Whether it will be trampled to death or not, no one knows.
Originally, Varok Sarufar was reluctant to withdraw his troops, because the withdrawal would mean that the back road of the tribal heroes led by Thrall would be cut off, and a passage from Duke dispelled his thoughts.
"Varok, I have no doubt about your loyalty to the Great Chief, but you are not someone who has not seen the insect tide. How long do you think your army will last before this frenzy? Do you want to wipe out the last of the tribe's elite? and once we kill all the bugs, we can still take Sal and them back. Don't worry, as long as Cthun isn't sent back to the depths of the planet for a day, the interests of the Alliance and the Horde are aligned. ”
Vaarok was silent for a few seconds, then nodded.
The Horde withdrew, and the Alliance, taking advantage of Naxxramas, frantically opened fire in every aisle in the direction of the Temple of Angela, in every place that was not under the protection of the god of Cthun.
The bugs are charging at all costs, and the Union artillery is covering the fire at all costs. The swarm of insects, which originally looked like a surging black tide, was smashed to pieces under the superior artillery fire of the Alliance, and before it could even form an intertwined turbulence.
The whole world seemed to be filled with the light of the explosion of the cannonballs.
As the Coalition Cannon King, Brian Copperbeard methodically commands Naxxramas:
"Incendiary bombs are prioritized for ground attacks, followed by high-explosive bombs!"
"Don't stop the three-way bomb for air attack!"
"Don't be afraid to run out of shells! Master Duke Marcus is already a mage demigod!
In Command, after asking Khadgar to help with the portal, Duke's focus fell to another place, and he said to Varok and Magni, "See? Cthun's shield has narrowed. ”
"Hmm. Both nodded at the same time.
Originally, Cthun could have covered the entire temple of Angela, but now it only covered the main hall in the temple, and the rest of the place, even if there was a stray bullet rushing through, it didn't matter.
"Why is that?" Varok wondered.
"Because our League of Heroes broke the pillars of the Angela Temple first. Duke raised his palms, and two little human souls appeared in the palms of his hands.
Even though these two souls had been imprisoned by Duke, Varok could still truly feel the strong will from the two souls, as well as the surging soul fluctuations.
"It's ......"
"The soul of the Twin Emperors! The Emperor of the Qila Worm is also the leader of the Worm Swarm. Without their brother, Cthun could no longer control the Worm Pullers well, so he simply rushed the low-level Bugs out and sent them to their deaths. ”
