Many people did not understand the strange name of Sarlayan's action plan at first, but after a simple explanation, they immediately showed a look of surprise, perhaps mixed with a bit of schadenfreude.
The so-called resolving hatred...
As long as I eliminate all my enemies, won't the hatred accumulated over the years also disappear?
From the barrage's perspective, this action name was somewhat darkly humorous, but Sarlayan thought it was just right.
When the Alliance was preparing to intervene in the war, the Deadwood Trolls and the Evil Branch Trolls were still unaware of the changes in the situation in the Hinterlands due to the tight intelligence blockade of the Backlight Blade.
Unlike the Deadwood Trolls who are outsiders, the Evil Branch Trolls fighting at home have a geographical advantage. While fighting the Deadwood Trolls who sent troops from Shadraluo, they can also send a partial division to attack the Maltooth Trolls. Demon-occupied Sarvassa.
With the secret support of the Wildhammer dwarves at Stormfeather Outpost, the Maltooth Trolls were "forced" to withdraw from Shalvasa, but their formation remained intact.
Vicious Teeth and Evil Branch fled from the north and bypassed Stormfeather Outpost. Another group of Wildhammer soldiers who had cleared the Hidden Stone were now hiding in the cave where the Briarblade clan once lived.
The Maltooth Clan's behavior of fleeing without a fight gave the Evil Branch commander a wrong signal. He thought that the Evil Branch Troll's deterrent power was still strong, and he seemed a little careless during the pursuit.
Out of defense against the Wildhammer dwarves, the commander left some troops to monitor the Stormfeather Outpost, and personally led the main army to continue chasing the "remnants" of the Vicious Teeth who fled north.
At the same time, the green dragon headed by Thorne had already ambushed in the dense woods leading to the Hidden Stone from Seradan.
When the Maltooth clan retreated to the Seradan Bridge, they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
As local aborigines, they know exactly whose territory this area belongs to.
Although Sarlayan had repeatedly promised that the green dragon would not attack them, Chief Broken Tooth, the leader of the group, was still uneasy out of instinctive fear of extraordinary creatures like dragons.
Under the close attention of all forces, the "fleeing hastily" evil-toothed troll panicked and fled into Seradan.
The evil branch trolls who were chasing after him also knew that the water here in Seradan was very deep, but seeing the military success right in front of them, the evil branch commander did not want to give up.
Out of caution, the Evil Branch Commander, whose name is still unknown, chose to wait and see what happens.
The Evilbranch Troll army squatted across Seradan Bridge, staring helplessly at the Badtooth Troll who was gasping for air on the opposite side. They were only a few hundred meters away from the Wildhammer dwarves hiding in the Hidden Stone Cave.
The Evil Branch Troll waited patiently for more than ten minutes, but never saw the green dragon that was supposed to come out to drive away the intruders.
Commander Evil Branch could not suppress his inner turmoil due to the military exploits in front of him. He finally assigned a small number of vanguards to carefully cross the bridge and enter Seradan.
"Ha~"
The Broken Tooth Clan leader who was waiting on the other side of the bridge had a sarcastic smile on his face: "I finally took the bait. You self-righteous Evil Branch Troll, prepare to face the dragon's wrath!"
"Roar!"
When the Evil Branch Vanguard crossed the bridge and officially entered Seradan's range, the previously motionless green dragons suddenly took off in large numbers, and many fully armed dragonmen rushed out of the nearby woods.
"this……"
Commander Evil Branch, who was still waiting for good news on the other side of the bridge, looked at the large number of green dragons in the sky and felt a chill in his heart.
"How is it possible?! Has the Maltooth Clan established a cooperation with the Green Dragon?"
At this point, no matter how stupid a person is, they should be plotted against themselves.
The panicked Commander Evilbranch immediately ordered the entire army to retreat. He had to tell Hex, the Evilbranch Chief who was far away in Sinsaro, this desperate news.
However... is it that easy?
Coming to Thorne will not let these evil branch trolls who know the truth escape back to convey the information.
As Seradan's only adult dragon, the huge Laithorn rushed to the front, spotted Commander Evil Branch's location and began to dive at high speed.
"hold head high!"
The long-prepared acid dragon's breath sprayed towards the Evil Branch army. The Evil Branch Commander, who had no time to leave any last words, was melted by the high-strength acid on the spot.
The Evil Branch army, which had lost its commander, was like headless flies trying to escape back to Salvasa to temporarily avoid its peak.
However, contrary to the expectations of these evil branch remnants, Lai Thorne did not look back and continue the attack after blowing out a breath of dragon breath. Instead, he led a dozen young dragons straight towards Xinsaro.
While the soldiers of the Evil Branch looked at the green dragon army that was gradually retreating with blank expressions, hundreds of Wildhammer infantry suddenly swarmed into the Shalvasa outpost that had been recaptured by the Evil Branch trolls.
To make matters worse, the Evil-Toothed Trolls, who seemed to have no fighting courage before, now launched a reverse charge from behind with great momentum. Above their heads, there were a large number of Storm Feathers and Hidden Stones rising into the air. gryphon knight.
"This is a trap!" A high-level Evil Branch witch doctor who accompanied the army shouted in horror: "We have been fooled! Those damn Vicious Tooth traitors and the Wildhammer dwarves actually... ah!"
In this kind of decisive game that has been arranged for a long time, smart people often die the fastest.
Attacked from two sides, the remnants of the Evil Branch army didn't even have a chance to escape. Their morale collapsed and they were quickly surrounded by enemies from both sides. They could only look desperately at the green dragons flying farther and farther in the sky.
At the same time, Sarlayan, who landed in Bad Tooth Village, was directing the arcanists who came with the army to set up a medium-distance teleportation circle.
There is a sea-viewing cliff with a huge height difference between Bad Tooth Village and Sinsaro.
Thanks to this chasm, the Maltooth clan was able to survive years of oppression by the Vilebranch trolls.
The Evil Branch Troll located at the high point of Zinsaro can directly overlook the situation near Wanghai Cliff. Once someone tries to climb the mountain road of Wanghai Cliff, the Evil Branch Watcher who has been monitoring the movements of the Evil Tooth Troll will immediately notice the clues.
Therefore, Sarlayan chose a different way to break the situation and teleport directly to the cliff.
Sarlayan deliberately calculated the time difference before the operation began. When the arcanists arranged the teleportation circle, Valeela, who was out to gather information, just sent the latest battle report from the front line.
"Did Salvasa get it back? Just in time."
Sarlayan turned to look at Archmage Rommath, who had joined the action out of interest: "Rommath, it's time, activate the teleportation array."
"no problem."
Under Romance's personal operation, the high elf marines who came by boat entered the large teleportation array in an orderly manner.
At the end of the team were several trial light armored vehicles. Valante planned to take this opportunity to entrust Saryan to test the performance of the armored vehicles in actual combat and observe whether there were any areas worthy of improvement based on actual combat conditions.
At the same time that the battle around Sinsalor began, the Highland Cavalry Regiment and the Griffin Knights stationed in the Eagle's Nest Mountain also cooperated with each other to attack the nearest Deadwood Troll stronghold, Silivasa.
The Farstrider rangers who had marched quickly from East Wilder not long ago also launched an attack southward from Quel'danil Cabin. The rangers who had the advantage of the high ground, led by Alleria, unexpectedly launched a projectile downwards. .
The Deadwood Trolls only maintained minimal defenses on the west and north sides of the battlefield, and their main force was concentrated on the eastern line where they were in close contact with the Evil Branch Trolls.
When Falstad led more than 80% of the troops in Eagle's Nest Mountain to dispatch, Danath Trollbane, who was far away in Stromgarde, also wore armor and personally led the army.
Due to the complex terrain of the mountain road connecting the Arathi Highlands and the Hinterlands, which was not suitable for cavalry, Danas specially asked the Highland Cavalry to take a detour to the Eagle's Nest Mountain to meet up with the Wildhammer dwarves.
But this does not mean that Danas will give up the golden opportunity to flank the Deadwood Trolls on both sides.
In order to ensure that they would have a retreat back to Arathi if they were unable to defeat the Evil Branch Trolls, the Deadwood Trolls left some backup troops in the mountains leading to the Hinterlands as a precaution.
However, in the face of the almost overwhelming Stromgard army, the remaining troops who lacked defense in the rear were completely useless.
Danas still bravely killed the commander of the Witherwood Troll garrison in person. The powerful Stormgard army continued to march towards the Hinterlands along the rugged mountain roads, completely sealing off the Witherwood Trolls. retreat.
Not long ago, the Deadwood Troll and the Evil Branch Troll, who were playing a "brotherly" civil war, encountered a large-scale attack at the same time. Under the circumstances of mental calculation and unintentional, the two suffering brothers were unable to fight back for a while.
"It's almost time."
In the sky above Sarvasa, Sarlayan, who transformed into the form of a sharp-tailed swift, looked around to confirm the situation on the two battlefields.
Sarlayan looked deeply at the two trolls who had begun to stop fighting on the front line of the Altar of Zul: "The difficulty of this war will really begin from now on."
