Chapter 995 The Noose of Despair

The son's sonorous and powerful words and merciless attacks almost choked Anastrian to the point of becoming mentally retarded.

In the eyes of the Sun King, verbal disputes are meaningless. If that doesn't work, if he kills all the powerful men in front of him and turns them into forgotten people, then his immortal kingdom will naturally be greatly strengthened.

The problem is, he can't defeat these Huiyue mages!

It stands to reason that if the bright sun hits the bright moon, there is no problem in crushing it.

The problem is that the equipment of the group of Huiyue mages opposite is blinding!

All high-end epic equipment produced by Mount Hyjal, its attribute bonuses are much higher than those of Anastrian. Although as the former Sun King, his equipment was definitely not bad, and it was the best of this era. However, the person facing him was equipped with equipment that was two eras ahead of him.

When the Sun King's magic couldn't destroy any Huiyue's magic shield in one go, he knew he couldn't win the battle.

Once caught in a tug-of-war, the inherent Achilles' heel of the flame-specialized mage is exposed - the endurance of fire spells is the worst among all mages.

He had to retreat.

However, when he brought the previous group of members of the Silver Moon Parliament with him after the next war, he would face a huge group of mages who had joined the court mages from various countries in the alliance. Another useless magic battle, no one was killed, but the Sun King was overloaded with his magic circuit.

What makes the Sun King even more mad is that because the opponent's equipment is so good, the recovery speed of magic power is actually higher than the undead like them.

If he was given enough time to set up a trap and successfully ambush a certain Alliance Huiyue Mage with good equipment, he might be able to make a comeback.

Unexpectedly, the alliance has been following the strategy left by Duke from the very beginning, aiming only to not lose in the magic battle, so the entire mage group always stayed together, and the Sun King could not find a chance to attack.

As a result, the magic field could not be suppressed, and the battlefield below became the domain of the alliance.

In just one month, the six armies wiped out nearly ten million undead creatures, met in the Undercity, and surrounded the once most dazzling pearl on the continent of Lordaeron.

Looking at the ruined city of Lordaeron, Mograine and other Lordaeron people felt infinite sadness.

"Hurry up and attack the city of Lordaeron, and drag out Anastrian, who stole our Pearl of Lordaeron, and purify him!" Mograine held the [Ashbringer] high, full of fighting spirit.

Anduin waved his hand, pointed at the collapsed city wall and smiled: "It is easy to capture the city of Lordaeron, but it is not easy to capture the newly built Undercity."

Some people may ask, isn’t this the same city?

of course not!

The old city of Lordaeron was mainly on the ground.

As for the newly built Undercity, the main and core buildings are all underground!

As a veteran commander, Mograine also knew how brutal street fighting was when attacking a castle, let alone an underground fortress. If this was not the royal capital of Lordaeron, he would definitely not be willing to waste a lot of young people's lives to attack it.

But for the glory of Lordaeron, we must fight no matter how difficult it is.

Just as Mograine was about to order a storm, Queen Kallia appeared.

"Your Majesty!" Mograine saluted hurriedly.

Kalia said in her nice but firm voice: "Alexandros, have you ever thought about the terrible consequences if the war turns into a tug of war? Every soldier who invades the dungeon will not be able to return. Come, and then the body is desecrated, the soul is forced to corrupt, and becomes a part of the enemy."

Mograine suddenly felt bitter.

Queen Kallia looked at the white city wall that had become extremely dilapidated. Seeing that this beautiful royal city that had nurtured countless generations of Lordaeron people had become extremely decayed, she gently stroked her chest, and her muscles and Underneath the bones is an aching heart.

"The city of Lordaeron has been desecrated once by Alsace, and now the despicable Anasterian has desecrated it for the second time. Not only did they desecrate the capital of the former alliance leader, they also made it the most terrifying and filthy place. The Dark Holy Land, as an Alliance member, I will never allow this kind of thing!"

Kaliya took a document from the hand of the maid next to her, signed her name on it, stamped it with the queen's seal, and handed it to Anduin, Turalyon, and Mograine. One copy of each.

"In the name of the current Queen of Lordaeron, I agree with the Alliance to carry out carpet bombing of the city of Lordaeron, and use all possible methods to deal with the undead under the city of Lordaeron, so as to ensure that every evil undead creature is exposed to the Holy Light. of purification!”

Bombarding the capital of a franchised country, even a former capital, is not something that can be done casually. Without the consent of the sect leader, even if it is taken down, too many valuable ancient buildings will be damaged. This is a bad debt that is difficult to explain clearly. Brothers may become feuding brothers in a minute.

But it is not easy at all to defeat this composite city with the city of Lordaeron above and the Undercity below.

If you simply occupy the top and then attack down, you will have to face the Forsaken troops coming out of endless secret passages to harm people. Every building, every alley, and every corner may become a passage for the enemy to attack.

In order to reduce unnecessary sacrifices, Duke convinced Kalia from the beginning.

Then, a siege began that subverted everyone's imagination.

First there was the earth-shattering bombardment.

Hundreds of battleships, together with three tank regiments and five artillery divisions, totaling more than 5,000 cannons of various calibers, poured all the artillery shells that the Alliance had accumulated for thirteen years onto the city of Lordaeron.

The earth-shattering bombardment lasted for three full days, until no more pillars or walls could be seen in the entire city of Lordaeron.

Then thousands of multi-purpose steam tanks, which are both armored vehicles, bulldozers, and grouting machines. Even the chassis is equipped with a 30-centimetre-thick armor plate, paving the entire city of Lordaeron with a one-meter thickness. of cement.

Immediately afterwards, twelve huge pile drivers were erected on the cement floor. They drove the piles at the twelve o'clock position of the clock. They did not use the elevators equipped in the Undercity that had killed countless people in history. They dug a hole into the Undercity by themselves. . It also serves as a defense against underground raids.

Once any place is dug through, just drop a large bag of bombs and blow them up first.

However, the alliance never sent commandos down.

Two kilometers outside the original city wall of Lordaeron, the previous steam tanks started working day and night to surround the entire city of Lordaeron. The goal was to dig a huge trench that was fifty meters deep and thirty meters wide to ensure that there was no one The undead can tunnel out of the ground.

When launching this plan, Duke calculated based on the largest area of ​​the Undercity in history. In fact, this was an extremely safe approach. At this time, the outermost underground wall of the Undercity was at least two thousand miles away from this giant trench. meters distance.
