Salufar, who had been summoned, was quite surprised by William's announcement.
"What happened? Why is everyone ready but not attacking?! Didn't you hear the cannons from the other side of the mountain? " Salufar pointed to the far west. It was the sound of cannons coming from the Shadow Vault to the west of the Door of Desolation.
William never liked to lie. Others could say that he was irritable or even bloodthirsty, but no one would say that he was a liar. He shook his head. "I received a direct order from the Alliance's supreme commander, Lord Duke Marcus. The Alliance's Northeast Front Army will temporarily postpone their attack. Oldur's Steel Army will attack first. "
"Is there any new information that our tribe needs to know?" Varrock was more experienced. He could sense that William knew something, but refused to say it.
William shook his head. "No comment. Whether to attack according to the plan is up to you, Sir Salufar. You can also ask Chief Saar before making a decision. Oldur's army will attack on time anyway. "
On the surface, it seemed that the Alliance was messing around by changing the order of attack without permission. The problem was that the four allied armies were not unified, and they were all marching through consultation.
At this moment, the Alliance had launched an attack from at least three directions. It could not be said that the Alliance was neglecting military strategy. Varrock's expression was very bad.
"I will ask Chief Saar." Varrock did not say much and turned to leave.
After he returned to the tribe's encampment, he connected a magic message to Orgrimmar.
Saar was also worried. "What is Duque doing? This is not the Duke Marcus I know. "
Wo Jin reminded, "Is the Alliance conserving their forces? In the past few years, the Alliance's army has become less and less fond of close combat. "
Saar shook his head and said with certainty, "No! Duque is a wise and decisive person. When it is time to fight, he will never be stingy with his sacrifice. He cares more about the covenant between the Horde and the Alliance than I do. He has never done anything that goes against the Alliance. The only explanation for him doing this now is that he knows something but can't tell me because of the situation. "
"Why don't we ask him directly?" Wo Jin suggested.
Saar seemed to be talking to himself. "No! It's useless to ask. The reason he informed us through William is that he doesn't want to talk to me directly. According to my deduction, it must be our tribe's problem … "
Wo Jin asked, "What is the first stage of the original plan?"
Varrock said, "Attack from multiple directions. However, the terrain is unfavorable in the west, so the main attack is long-range. The southeast and northeast are the main attack. After the Forsaken troops in the southeast broke through the defense line of the Iron Wall Dam, they turned to attack the City of Calamity on the eastern highlands of the Icecrown Glacier. In the northeast, Audur's Steel Army would block any troops that might come from Desolation Gate and Death's Gate. My army will go from the north to the south, and King Wrynn's army will go from the east to the west through the Lodrassil Trail. We'll attack the City of Calamity from three directions. "
Wo, "It was, a, a, a, three attack.. If the Alliance suddenly stops, won't they be sending the Forsaken Ones to die? "
"What if …" Wo Jin suddenly thought of something, but when he saw Sal's face and thought of Sal's efforts to unite the tribes, he suddenly became discouraged. "Forget it, it's nothing."
. Sal was confused, but he didn't think too much about the big picture.
"I'm going to find Duque. Varrock, your people will continue to attack Scourge from the north. The Horde will not abandon its allies. We can't let the Anastrian people face the Scourge Army alone. "
"Understood!" Varrock punched his chest.
In order to catch up, Varrock had even allowed his son, Dranos, to lead the elites of the Blackrock clan and set off first.
Although the Blackrock Orcs didn't like the cold weather, as a clan that used to live in the mountains, they were very good at climbing mountains.
On the other side, Sal found Duke.
"Tell me, why did William's army stop marching in the northeast?"
"We found that there was a mistake with a batch of artillery shells. The artillery shells, which are not suitable for use in the cold weather, were mistakenly shipped to the front line. If the Alliance troops launched an attack without the cover of heavy artillery, it would increase unnecessary casualties. I strongly suggest that you stop your army as well. "Duque was an Azeroth Award winner, so he didn't even need to prepare a script to lie.
"Is it true?" Sal asked.
Duke shrugged with a look that said, "You guess."
The uneasiness in Sal's heart grew stronger. But no matter what he said, Duque wouldn't budge. At most, he promised to push the Dalajan forward and send as many airships as possible. Unfortunately, due to the allocation of troops, they couldn't send more battleships to besiege Scourge.
A cloud of uneasiness hung over the entire Alliance.
At two o 'clock in the afternoon on March 15th, the Forsaken army and Dranos' Orc army broke through the defense line of the Iron Wall Dam. They faced the majestic Scourge Army in the south and north.
The Scourge Army was located in the eastern part of the Icecrown Glacier. It was an important fulcrum for Arthas to rule the entire region. There was a huge magical ley line second only to the Icecrown Fortress.
Unlike Duque's previous life, perhaps because the Alliance had put too much pressure on the Lich King, Arthas used this ley line to create an extremely powerful magic circle. Since last winter, there had been a terrifying level 10 gale every day.
An ice tornado that would never move was always circling around the City of Calamity.
Looking at the majestic city in front of him, Anastrian glanced at the Dalajan City that had followed the Forsaken army to this airspace. The Sun King contacted Kael 'thas directly.
"President Kirin Tor, please immediately order the Dalajan's magic cannons to bombard the Scourge Army and weaken its shield." Anastrian's address was very businesslike, and Kai Zi couldn't find fault with it.
Facing his dead father, Kai Zi's feelings were extremely complicated. But after so many years of experience and being redeemed by Duque, Kael 'thas had already gotten over it. "Your Excellency Anastrian Sunstrider, don't we need to wait for the main force of the Horde?"
"No need. I'm a powerful Undead. I can clearly sense that Arthas has already abandoned this place. The Undead inside are not the main force of the Scourge Army. Our current forces are enough. "
"Since you say so, as an ally, I have no objections. In 15 minutes, the Dalajan will launch an attack. Please judge the timing of the attack yourself, Your Excellency. "
The father and son, who had the same blood flowing in their veins, ended this exchange in a way that they were passers-by.
