Man's mouth~~~
Liar~~~~~~
When you say this sentence, your voice must be frivolous, and the ending sound must be elongated until you believe it.
This way others will think you are too exaggerated and not true.
This is probably the so-called war that never tires of deceit.
The location of Alterac City is actually very nonsense.
The snowy plateau has cliffs on two sides and a long steep slope that is inaccessible to vehicles and horses. There is only a good walkway to the east. It is a typical Jedi.
In terms of military affairs, we cannot guard the four main roads, in terms of economy, we cannot gather financial resources from all directions, and in terms of politics, we have to travel for months to hold a meeting.
Besides being easy to defend and difficult to attack, what are the advantages?
Um……
When war comes, it really covers up all the ugliness.
When Kel'Thuzad drove the Naxxramas Flying Necropolis swayingly up to the Alterac Plateau, preparing to reenact the classic tactics of the Scourge to capture the city of Lordaeron, he couldn't help but curse.
"Are all the Barovs suffering from delusions of persecution?"
Big pot, your house is surrounded by cliffs on both sides. What do you call this? It’s a natural hazard!
Shouldn't it be that we should neglect our defense and be climbed up and down every once in a while?
What is this self-loading six-gun turret crossbow, what is this delayed-fuse anti-aircraft artillery, what is this airborne arcane booby trap.
Okay, okay, you're holding on to the cliffs, and the Scourge doesn't have any extra gargoyles to send warmth. Try another side, from the steep slope integrated with the Alterac Mountains.
As a result, when I tried it, I almost exploded the magic furnace in Naxxramas that had been renovated less than a year ago.
Damn it, the Alterac military has inherited the fine tradition of royal family paranoia and built a complete underground transportation fortification on this side, so that when the city of Alterac is blocked, it can be used from this seemingly dangerous steep slope. Make strategic transitions/escapes.
As a result, when Naxxramas lowered its altitude at a mountain pass to avoid the crosswinds in the valley, artillerymen covered with camouflage nets attacked the chassis.
Although the defenders were completely wiped out, the magic power transmission pipeline was overloaded.
All this gave Alterac City another day to react.
So when Kel'Thuzad tried to ride on the face of the fortress again, he couldn't laugh anymore.
It is true that Alterac City's permanent fortifications in this direction are not as crazy as the two cliff directions, but this is not because the Barov family does not want to, but because it is unnecessary.
More than six brigades of gryphon knights and more than 500 rotary-wing combat aircraft faced the enemy head-on.
Covered by the ever-lasting white snow of the Alterac Mountains, is the Alliance's air base.
Liches also have anger, and temporary concessions are for long-term progress.
If you want to fight, Kel'Thuzad will fight with you.
Do you think a demigod lich driving the war fortress that destroyed the Kingdom of Lordaeron is here to bring laughter to the people of Alterac?
It's just because there are too many ground troops.
After constant maintenance and upgrades, coupled with Kel'Thuzad's magical control, Naxxramas was now filled to the brim with more than 50,000 natural disaster troops.
This is the fundamental reason why Kel'Thuzad dared to directly fortress Alterac City.
This is why Kel'Thuzad must have a landing site.
As long as you grab a landing site around Alterac City, you can complete the project preparations in half a day.
With the guidance of the Lich King in micro-management, Scourge's experience in using the floating fortress is the best in Azeroth.
However, Naxxramas only had such a large internal space and was filled with 50,000 ground units. Naturally, the air force could not bring enough.
In particular, the manufacturing process of gargoyles is much more complicated than that of necromancers pulling skeletons from graveyards.
As the war continued to develop, the command of the Undead Scourge also discovered the serious problem of lack of mobility, and the tactics also continued to evolve from the simple sea of skeletons at the beginning to the current double ghosts of heaven and earth plus hateful catapults and heavy equipment.
It's not just the alliance that's been strengthened, the undead scourge has also been evolving during the war.
Therefore, the outcome of this air battle will directly affect the survival of Alterac City.
Once the Alliance Air Force cannot stop the gargoyles scattered by Naxxramas, then Kel'Thuzad will not talk about his past feelings with his good uncle Alex Barov.
For the first time, the outcome of an aerial battle will determine the survival of a city.
However, the reality is cruel. The scarcity of gargoyles is only aimed at the 50,000 ground units inside Naxxramas. A group of more than 3,000 gargoyles roars towards them. Even if the griffon knights are brave and fearless, they cannot help but Scalp numbness.
Fortunately, there was ground fire support.
Although it is not as frantic as the other two city walls, the most basic air defense is still there.
Relying on the support of the mages, the alliance air force and the gargoyles, who were at an absolute disadvantage in numbers, were fighting in the sky.
"No, we have too few anti-aircraft artillery, and the latest full-angle crossbows are not enough. We have so much firepower but can't hit the enemy. It's frustrating!"
The officers guarding the city wall groaned helplessly.
After all, for the past few hundred years, the sky has been just a playground for a few strong people.
Although the Alliance has begun to study the iteration of air defense capabilities since the destruction of Lordaeron, it is a pity that time waits for no one.
For a strong floating fortress like Naxxramas, traditional air defense methods are useless. A huge crossbow arrow that can penetrate a griffin with one arrow can only scratch the wall of the fortress.
Large-caliber artillery can threaten Naxxramas, but the firing angle, charge, and transportation are another problem.
In the final analysis, the only thing that can fight against the floating fortress is another sky and sky platform.
The brave dwarf knights and dwarf pilots continued to shed blood in the sky. The alliance was basically defeated in this air battle, but their sacrifices were not in vain.
"The magic furnace is preheated."
"The pressure valve value is normal."
"There are no obvious signs of damage to the pipe."
"Ammunition reserve checked."
"Crew count completed."
"The sky battleship Enterprise is ready to take off!"
"The sky battleship "Dawn" is ready to take off!"
"The sky battleship "Glorious" is ready to take off!"
Don’t ask how the figure king got the money for these toys from military expenditures.
In fact, after the first-generation "Enterprise" blocked the gate of Silvery Moon City with its butt, Carlos immediately contacted the country and requested the immediate development of a second-generation aerospace battleship.
The excuse is ready, if you don't take over the sky, the Scourge will.
On another azure planet, the development of spacecraft was limited by the lack of power, which led to the myth and legend of Mada Feizhuan.
But Azeroth is different.
Power has never been the heart disease of the aerospace industry, poverty is.
If prices were based on the prices before Lordaeron was destroyed, the cost of each aerial battleship would be enough to arm a hundred thousand cavalry troops.
A full set of armor and weapons, including man and horse.
In one word, expensive!
But now that the undead are raging, gold coins are still gold coins, and gold coins are just gold coins.
Carlos, who controls the alliance, does not even need to personally submit an authorization statement to the high-level council. He can rush out three new ships with a total tonnage of 17,000 tons in two months by simply issuing a material call letter.
This contains the hard work of the first generation of pathfinders who went to Silvermoon City together, and also contains the resentment of Magni Bronzebeard.
Of course, there is also the selfless technical support of Quel'Thalas.
And, what the light will not tell Kel'Thuzad - Carlos's new toy uses the magic furnace of shadow!
To put it more bluntly, Carlos obtained the abandoned power furnace that Naxxramas replaced and directly copied the technology of the Undead Scourge.
When the three aerial battleships took off, Kel'Thuzad immediately sensed three strong explosion points of shadow power.
During the long preheating time of the magic furnace, the alliance's air force has fought for it with flesh and blood.
Although compared with Naxxramas, which started at least 300,000 tons, the three Alliance warships still seemed small.
But at a high level, humans no longer need to look up to the undead.
Amidst the violent roar of artillery.
This air battle has entered the second phase and continues.
