Chapter 524 A Day Trip to Darkforge City
The temporary silence in the barracks does not mean that the entire barracks has been emptied of the Black Iron dwarves. After all, these Black Iron dwarves are not stupid. Seeing that they were unilaterally slaughtered by magic, they naturally know the reason to take a step back.
When Charlemagne opened the mechanism on the first floor and led the army to the second floor with ease, there was no one there as he expected.
Duke Theron looked at the map and thought for a while, then turned his head and suggested to the three kings, "There is an amphitheater in front, and behind the arena are the Temple of Thaurissan and the residential area of the Dark Iron Dwarves."
"In order to avoid being cheated, we'd better leave some troops here. I have a hunch that those black iron dwarves will use their familiarity with the city to launch a surprise attack on us."
Not only is the arena of order ahead, but the troops left behind in the Eastern Barracks can also defend the confinement room abandoned by Charlemagne and the sneak attack in the direction of the Black Iron Avenue at the same time. The leader of the alliance nodded happily after hearing Charlemagne's analysis.
After discussion, the three kings decided to leave one-third of the troops, led by Marshal Reginald Windsor of the Stormwind Kingdom, to stay in this eastern barracks to prevent the large troops from being attacked from the rear.
After solving the worries, Charlemagne continued to look at the map and led the alliance to the passage connecting the East and West barracks. From the windows on both sides of the passage, you can see the fire elemental and black iron dwarf troops that have been mobilized on the Black Iron Avenue below.
According to their direction of advance, it can be roughly judged that the target of these guys should be the Eastern Barracks that Windsor is guarding today.
Charlemagne looked at the excited Black Iron dwarves below and sneered, "Oh... Sure enough, as I expected, it's a pity that the Black Iron dwarves didn't know that we had already figured out the structure of Darkforge City, and their raid was doomed to fail. return."
Marshal Windsor was a general brought out by Lothar himself. After Lothar's death, he was named Marshal of the Stormwind Kingdom by Varian with his experienced military skills. With him guarding the rear, there is no need to worry about being defeated by the Dark Iron Dwarves. rear.
Because the blocking mechanism connecting the barracks in the east and west districts had been opened by Charlemagne, the large alliance troops entered the barracks in the west district very smoothly through this narrow passage.
As soon as they entered the spacious hall in the barracks, the Union soldiers in the lead were attacked by the enemy's preparations.
The combination of a large number of fire elements and the black iron dwarves gave the alliance a "surprise". The oncoming large number of fireballs and rain of flames caused the front row of the army to suffer a lot of losses.
Varian drew Stromkar from behind and ordered loudly, "Don't panic! The front row of shields is ready, the musketeers and mages will fight back immediately, and attack the opponent's spell-casting units first!"
"Gelbin, those ugly black iron puppets will be handed over to you!"
Gelbin jumped twice excitedly in his open mech cab, "No problem! Just to see how technical these black iron dwarves are, steam mech team, attack!"
Through the technical exchanges with the high elves in the past few years, the dwarf also developed a steam mech suitable for his own use earlier than in history.
Different from the bulky stone puppets of the Black Iron Dwarves, these mechas are much more flexible in terms of flexibility. At the same time, due to the reverse derivation of the high elves' magic cannon technology by the master craftsman, the power of the gunpowder weapons of the steam mechas is not weak.
These black iron puppets with high resistance to spells were bombarded by the gunfire of the dwarf mecha. The two tallest puppets were directed towards Semap who was in charge of the front row under the control of a black iron dwarf who was obviously a general. Lager rushed.
Therma Prager was not surprised but delighted, he screamed excitedly, "Aha! It's just in time, let you **** six-barrel cannon!"
This great traitor who would have been a dwarf sinner in history, now became an important technician and combat power among the dwarves after the great craftsman because of Charlemagne's inadvertently changed history.
His large-caliber cannon beat the two puppets at the bottom of the puppet commander Agmanche's box to pieces of stone, and they were about to fail.
At this time, the alliance army that had been attacked by surprise gradually stabilized its position under Varian's calm command. The Black Iron officers took the lead in the assault and could no longer shake the alliance army formation, and the alliance mages gradually relied on their numerical superiority. Suppressed the opponent's fire element and caster.
Seeing that the Black Iron Dwarf General with a red beard on the opposite side was about to run away, Charlemagne immediately pulled out five arcane arrows from Solidar, and shot at the Black Iron Dwarf who should be General Furnace from different angles.
"Well…"
The guards surrounding General Furnace blocked three of Charlemagne's arrows for him, but he was helpless with the remaining two. After being blasted through the heart and brain by the arrows, the hardliner among the Dark Iron dwarves The general finally fell in the barracks he was guarding.
On the other hand, because Gelbin was curious about Agmanche's puppet technology, the puppet commander was lucky enough to be spared, but judging by his humiliated face, maybe being captured was a big deal for him. A bad option.
The two important strongholds of the Black Iron Dwarves were emptied in succession, and the resistance of the city was significantly weakened. When the Alliance army arrived at the Black Iron Bar, there was already no one there.
"Um…"
Charlemagne turned over the map again and looked at it, "Next, we will go through the bar to the Hall of Magic. The area below is the real core of Darkforge City, so cheer up."
Just when Charlemagne thought that the Dark Iron Dwarves would concentrate all their forces in the Throne Hall, he unexpectedly found thousands of Fire Elementals in the Hall of Magic, among which there was one who looked very similar to Naga humanoids.
Charlemagne had a black question mark expression on his face, "Fire demon? Who gave him the courage to stand in front of the army?"
When the fire demon leader saw Varian and Magni who were leading in, he immediately showed an arrogant expression, "Fragile mortals! I am the great fire elemental lord Ragnaros sent to the city of Darkforge." Ambassador Flairas, in the name of my lord, I order you..."
"Shua!"
Before this guy could say anything, Khadgar took the lead in raining a blizzard on his head. Uncle Ka, who shaved off his beard and looked more energetic, said with a funny face, "I think this guy needs to calm down, he can't see clearly the two sides. Is there a difference in the number of troops?"
As Khadgar said, perhaps it was the dark iron dwarf's obedience that made this arrogant fire demon obviously misjudge the will and strength of mortals. In the end... this guy screamed and was used by King Varian with Storm The card was cut into a mosaic.
Passing through the puppet casting room at the back, the army entered the Summoner's Tomb. None of the seven so-called sage ghosts that were supposed to appear here were seen. I don't know if they were afraid to come out or were sent to their own by Dagran Finally went to the defense line.
The back of the Summoner's Tomb is the destination of the ancient oath. Charlemagne handed the map to Varian, and roughly pointed out to him the path they should take next.
"There is no fork in the road. You only need to go through the lecture hall in front of you to reach the Emperor's Seat where Dagran Thaurissan is. Let's go to the Molten to explore the way. After you rescue Moira, go directly to the Molten Make peace with us in your heart."
