New Order of Azeroth

Chapter 523 Protracted War

Vanessa and the generals have been busy for three days. Different from the Lich King's method of framing A, the work that the coalition needs to do is complicated. Even if the thinking within the coalition is unified, it often takes time to put it together. The meaning of the upper level is faithfully conveyed to the soldiers below. There are too many things to worry about in this process.

Heavy infantry and cavalry are deployed on the west side of the Gate of Holy Light. Lordaeron plus the Dwarf Kingdom, a total of 120 steam tanks are placed inside the pass. They will need to be the main force in the next attack.

The east side was mainly composed of wounded soldiers and new recruits. The Gate of Holy Light was captured and the undead army was blocked in Icecrown Glacier.

At this time, the entire Dragonblight, including the Borean Tundra in the west, the Grizzly Hills and Howling Fjord in the east, is considered safe. From the Gate of Holy Light to Wodassil Camp, and then all the way south to New Hearthglen on the seaside, relying on this supply line, all kinds of materials can enter the Gate of Holy Light in an endless stream, and the pressure on transportation is not included. Too big.

Vanessa secretly asked Miss Lula to purify the entire military fortress. The paladins who didn't know the truth woke up and found out, Huh? Why did such a strong holy light suddenly appear here? The Holy Light appears! Praise the Holy Light!

Not to mention the paladins of Lordaeron, even the paladins of Quel'Thalas, Khaz Modan and the Kingdom of Stormwind were excited.

"Your Highness, we have annihilated more than 50,000 undead soldiers on the east side of the Gate of Holy Light. Among them were the elite death knights led by Farien, as well as the undead soldiers who went to war later. However, the vampires of Sarain attacked There were very few kills, and Lannathel ran away as soon as the battle started.”

Old Fording is now positioned as an adjutant, and his main job is to summarize and report all intelligence to Vanessa.

Vanessa nodded inconspicuously, and a thief reported to her that Lannathel said a few words to Kael'thas on the battlefield, and then the vampire queen transformed from the blood elf fled the battlefield.

She was noncommittal about this. Lana'thel was also a hero once. She followed Kael'thas and Illidan on an expedition to Northrend. She died in the battle and was resurrected by the Lich King. There are many confusing accounts here. It can be said that Illidan and Kael'thas could not see the situation clearly, so they sent them away by force, and after they were defeated, they ran back and killed all their subordinates. It is the leaders who are incompetent, not the soldiers who followed the orders and fought to the death.

Now that I see my old subordinates, Kael'thas and Lana'thel say a few words, it's no big deal.

Vanessa doesn't think Kael'thas will seek refuge with the Lich King. The chance is so small that it's infinitely close to zero.

"I understand, please continue."

Old Fording's tone was then filled with excitement: "The number of enemies we killed at the west gate cannot be calculated for the time being, but I think the number of enemies killed should be much higher than that at the east gate. A conservative estimate should be between 100,000 and 150,000. .”

East and West, the total number of undead soldiers killed exceeded 200,000. This was an undisputed victory.

This also includes a large number of death knights and salayin vampires. The results of the coalition's battle at the Gate of Holy Light can be described as brilliant.

The total number of 600,000 undead suddenly dropped by 200,000, which is definitely good news for the coalition forces.

It used to take one soldier to deal with three undead, but now it only takes two.

"Where are the battle losses of the coalition forces?"

Mentioning this, Old Fording sighed: "More than 8,000 soldiers died in the battle, and more than 5,000 were injured. These people's injuries are relatively serious, and it will be difficult for them to return to the battlefield."

Injuries in Azeroth generally refer to serious injuries, injuries that cannot be completely healed even with the use of holy light and the power of nature.

Some of them suffered severe mental trauma. They saw their comrades being killed around them, and they couldn't bear it mentally. Not to mention the Holy Light and the power of nature, it would be difficult to heal even if a Titan came over.

Some are infected with the power of the undead, or bitten by the Salain vampire, in which case their limbs must be amputated. The essence of treatment is actually to speed up the self-healing of cells. If the subject is already suffering from overwork and injuries, he cannot just use magic treatment at this time. He could have lived for ten years, but after the treatment, he will immediately enter the state of recovery. , it would be better not to treat it.

For the coalition forces, wounded soldiers can be considered withdrawn from this battle.

Vanessa repeated the number: "Thirteen thousand people...Lordaeron will be responsible for the funeral arrangements of the sacrificed and injured soldiers. Notify the country and let them deal with this matter as a priority, provide compensation and Follow-up treatment has been arranged.”

Pensions and follow-up arrangements for wounded soldiers require money. There were 13,000 casualties, of which more than 8,000 were from Lordaeron. A full legion was lost, and the rest were from the dwarves and Gilneans. Loss, after all, there are only a few Gilneans who have transformed into werewolves, and the overall combat effectiveness is still a bit worse. Vanessa waved her hand, and all these pensions will be paid by Lordaeron.

The casualties in the first two pursuits accounted for 3,000, and the persistence for the next three days cost roughly another 10,000 casualties.

The casualties were huge, but it was all worth it. Even those who didn't know much about military affairs would know that the coalition was in a good situation when they saw the geographical location of the Gate of Holy Light.

In a time and space without Lordaeron and Vanessa rising up, the Alliance and the Horde also attacked the Gate of Scourge, but encountered a strong attack from the Lich King and the betrayal of the Forsaken, and the advance army was completely wiped out.

Forcing Old Fording to take people through Crystal Song Forest, UU Readingwww.uukanshu.nett successively cleared the three Death Doors of Modressa, Ordusa and Koressa, and finally used the black technology of flying battleships He led a team to parachute into Icecrown Fortress and performed a beautiful beheading operation.

It is reflected in the game that there is a high mountain behind the Gate of Scourge, and on the top of the mountain is the Ice Crown Fortress. This is actually impossible. The Lich King is so full that he builds a huge military fortress at the foot of the mountain? What is he planning? Farmhouse? Are the Alliance and the Horde too stupid to attack such a military fortress with no way behind it?

The real situation is that there is a road, not to mention that the road is very flat. Near the glacier, the Lich King used the ability of the spider demon and countless undead to dig through the mountains. There is an underground tunnel here at the Gate of Holy Light than in the previous life. There is also a road ten times wider that leads directly to the bottom of Icecrown Citadel.

The scouts sent back a message that the tunnel opened by the spider demon was very strong. Not only could large armies fight here, but even steam tanks could run rampant in the tunnel.

Vanessa did not attack rashly. She asked the coalition forces to build a line of defense every five hundred meters forward. She would rely on the strong defense to smooth out the numerical advantage of the undead army, and at the same time train troops to strengthen the interior of this new Lordaeron. Cohesion.

For this reason, she purchased a large amount of food from the goblins, and it would be no problem to fight for another half a year!
