591【Rescue Azshara】
The overall picture from a bird's-eye view changed in vain. The scope of the imaging quickly moved around the huge Well of Eternity area, and finally settled on more than [-] kilometers west of Zin Aissalin. Then it began to slowly zoom in and zoom out. A more detailed scene emerged.Mobile terminal
Before leaving, Angmar had learned about the war situation from Lord Ravencrest and learned that Azshara was leading the guards to escort the refugees in the capital and evacuated to the west using the main trade route connecting Zin Azshari and Elre'Thalas. .
One day has passed since he left Suramar City and went to Dragon Sleeping Temple. Counting the time, Azshara might be here.
The picture became clearer and clearer. It was clear that the sun was blazing in the sky and the lighting was good, but there was thick smoke everywhere, making it difficult to see.
Through the smoke, you can vaguely see a broad river flowing from north to south, where it intersects with the east-west trade route.At the intersection of the two, there is a town divided into east and west parts by the river. It is very large and has many buildings, including commercial ports, warehouses, docks, hotels... and so on.In order to meet the traffic and docking needs of ships, the rivers in the town have been artificially widened, which is about tens of meters.
Angmar had intentionally learned about the topography of the Well of Eternity area. He knew that this town was an important trading town developed due to land and water trade. It could be called a secondary transportation hub west of Zin Aissalyn, but he could not remember the specific details. name.
The picture was further zoomed in, and the fire was clearly visible. The town had been completely engulfed in fire, and the smoke was rising straight into the sky.The night elves, who are like little ants, are relying on buildings in the streets and alleys to resist the attack of demons.
It seems that they made a lot of preparations before the war.Not only did fortifications be built on the streets, but the only broad bridge connecting the east and west banks in the center of the town was collapsed.
It's a pity that for the devil who is prepared, this hardly constitutes any obstacle.The hellfire leveled all the fortifications effortlessly; the rivers that turned strangely dark green under the corrosion of evil energy were also filled with boulders raised by the spells of the eredar warlocks to feed the relatively short hellhounds and demons. Guard the passage.
As for the larger demons, such as the Wrath Guards, for them, the four to five meter deep river water is barely up to their necks.Not to mention, the hellfire construct summoned from the twisted void by summoning magic can completely ignore this obstacle and fall to any corner of the battlefield.Not to mention the Doom Guards who already have the ability to fly...
From time to time, a meteorite with a long tail of flames flashed across the sky. It fell from the sky and smashed down a building, killing the surrounding night elves instantly. Then it stretched out its limbs, pulled itself out of the crater, and immediately began to kill everyone. .
This is not a fair battle. No matter in terms of numbers or combat effectiveness, the night elves are far inferior to their opponents.Faced with the Burning Legion's open-land fighting style, the night elves were completely powerless to resist, even though they were already the most elite mortal army on the road.
People were dying every minute, and it seemed that within an hour at most, the entire town would be completely reduced to ruins under the constant bombardment of hellfire meteorites and fel artillery.No matter how many surviving night elves there are, there will only be one end waiting for them.
That is to exit the town that was used as cover, to be bitten and chased by Cerberus with extraordinary maneuverability, to be continuously reduced in number by the Doomsday Guard with the ability to fly, to be slowed down by the hellfire falling on the head one after another, and finally to be beaten by a group of people. Eat away bit by bit.
Angmar's expression was solemn. Under his guidance, the scene began to move rapidly around the town, and the tragic battle situation came into view.
……
A crossroads in the north of the town was piled with sandbags, reinforced with wooden piles, and wooden boards nailed to them, forming a circular fortification. The outer circle was a trench more than one meter deep, which was filled with cut Sharp wooden thorns.However, the trench was almost filled with corpses, and it was completely unable to have the desired effect.Hundreds of exhausted and wounded night elf soldiers were in the fortifications, tenaciously resisting demons from all directions.
There were not many arrows left, and the weapons had already been curled up. Even the mages in robes had no choice but to pick up a broken blade due to the exhaustion of their magic power, and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat.
An evil spell shot out, directly opening a hole in the fortification, and sand, wood chips, broken arms and limbs flew everywhere.The officers of these soldiers looked in the direction of the magic attack and couldn't help gritting their teeth...
The spell was shot from the Elune Chapel not far to the south, which is the commanding heights of this area and is extremely important.There were three hundred Guards soldiers guarding there, and the archers inside could provide long-range fire support to nearby fortifications at any time.
But at this time, there were several eredar mages standing on top of the building, and a large group of Gurgan workers were moving a fel cannon to the top platform with the help of several extremely powerful doomsday guards. .
"Commander, soldier!" The officer pointed to the chapel and called for a long time but did not see the soldier coming. He soon realized that the latter might have been sacrificed, so he casually pulled over a soldier who was not seriously injured and spoke quickly. He said, "Take a few people to break out from the north, contact nearby strongholds, and ask them to abandon their defense immediately and launch an attack on the chapel. We must regain the commanding heights, otherwise the evil cannon will set off and the north of the town will be reduced to nothing in an instant. …”
"Boom!"
Continuous loud noises interrupted the officer. He was startled, but found that the ground was shaking, as if something huge was approaching quickly.Looking around, I could see that the three-story building with severe structural damage in the southeast corner of the intersection was shaking violently.The archers who were shooting at the demons from a high position seemed to have discovered something. They didn't care about the height and jumped down from the top as if they were running for their lives.
Earthquakes are becoming more and more severe and their frequency is getting faster and faster...
A few seconds later, a huge rock burning with evil flames suddenly appeared from behind the building. The eye sockets were clearly visible. It looked like... the head of something, and it was still approaching rapidly.
The officer was stunned for a moment, then yelled with all his strength, "Hellfire!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang, and the building in the southeast corner was dashed away by the giant hellfire, which was far taller than the building itself...
The night elf soldiers in the fortification had no time to realize what was happening. Huge boulder fragments were scattered all over the sky, and nearly half of the soldiers died on the spot.Hellfire's speed did not slow down, regardless of the many "petite" hellhounds it trampled to death along the way. It stepped over the fortifications, stretched out its big hand to scoop it up, and directly plowed a gap on the ground. The night elves were like light bugs. After being knocked away, the survivors were burned to ashes by the evil flames surrounding Hellfire...
The fortifications were instantly breached, and the besieging demons swarmed in. No night elves survived.
……
In an alley near the river in the middle of the town, a noble officer with a dirty piece of cloth wrapped around his head and his eyes obviously blinded was climbing onto the saddle of the night saber's mount with the help of a young soldier.
After sitting firmly, he asked, "How many people are left?"
This soldier was very young, obviously just coming of age, clumsy, and must have been temporarily recruited from the refugee ranks.When he heard the sound, he looked back and forth and replied with a cry, "Sir, there are only...a dozen or so people left."
The noble officer was silent.
Demons were approaching at both ends of the street, blocking their cavalry squad, which was ordered to support the river defense line, but encountered the main force of demons halfway and suffered heavy casualties.
There was a rustling sound nearby, and the surviving cavalry all boarded the Nightsaber.
"Can't escape?" the noble officer asked again.
No one answered him this time. The young soldier who helped him mount his mount just kept sobbing softly.However, no one thought he was cowardly, and no one scolded or stopped him.
The noble officer fell silent again, and began to fumble for his weapon in the saddlebag with his trembling hands, but suddenly he felt something being stuffed into his hand. It turned out to be a nearby soldier. He took off his sword and handed it to him. In his hands.The moment he grasped the hilt of the sword, his hand suddenly stopped shaking.
"Sir, we can't escape." The soldier who handed the sword said.
The demon's footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the slight panting of the hellhound could already be heard.
"How far?" asked the noble officer.
"30 meters is enough for the night saber to speed up." someone answered.
"Help me." The noble officer handed the reins of his mount to the direction of the sound, and let his soldiers help him turn his mount's direction.
"Sir, give the order, we are ready."
"Everyone, I am honored to fight side by side with you." The noble officer took a few deep breaths, then swung his sword and gave the night saber a hard slash on the buttocks of the night saber. The night saber galloped out in pain and headed towards the demon. Ran wildly.More than a dozen cavalrymen also followed him and launched a desperate charge.
"For the Kaldorei!"
The distance of 30 meters was reached almost instantly, and a dozen cavalrymen were quickly overwhelmed by the wave of demons.
