Only by using one's body as a sword can one strike a fatal blow.
Carlos' plan was crude, full of flaws, but the Scourge of the Undead had to fall for it.
There is only one reason, because he is Carlos Barov.
The shadow of the famous tree of man, Carlos's illustrious reputation for the undead natural disasters, was struck with punches and kicks, chopped with swords, and made with every word and deed.
Even if he knew that Carlos's sudden bachelor's march was unreasonable, what if.
What if the city of Lordaeron is really penetrated by him.
That's Carlos Barov!
If you don't dare to gamble, you can only block it.
When large armies are mobilized, there will definitely be gaps in the defense zone.
Carlos feinted a shot to the northeast, turned around and headed west.
After all, the city of Lordaeron is the most fertile place with water and grass. As the highest standard of infrastructure in the feudal era, the road network extending in all directions not only facilitates the undead natural disasters to hunt down refugees, but also facilitates Carlos' march.
Carlos knew why Garithos was short of ammunition.
The newly recruited troops are full of enthusiasm, but do not have enough time to practice military skills, so they can only shoot guns.
There are millions of people in the entire alliance, and there are only about 100,000 truly battle-hardened veterans. This has inherited the "legacy" of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, plus the "second-hand soldiers" who have seen the scene since this year's campaign, there are at best two Just over 100,000 people, half a million troops, it sounds nice, but in essence it means more than 100,000 people who can fight hard battles, more than 100,000 people who feel they dare to fight hard battles, plus 300,000 people who dare to fight.
This is the composition of the Alliance army today.
Garithos has 80,000 Lordaeron troops in his hands, Uther has 60,000 elites with the expeditionary force as the backbone, and Carlos handed over the main force of his Alterac army to Alessandro. Mograine.
In fact, now that he has 20,000 people, his morale is strong enough, but his combat effectiveness is really not that good.
If he hadn't fallen into strategic passivity, Carlos wouldn't want to play a desperate rush at all.
It was the Scourge in Lordaeron that gave him courage.
The response was too slow. Although it was unclear why, Lordaeron City's response to the undead natural disaster was too slow.
According to estimates, the Alliance is using 500,000 troops to fight against the Scourge's approximately 1.5 million combat units.
The Scourge of the Undead, which was split into two, has about 500,000 troops in the Stratholme area, so the number of troops in the city of Lordaeron should be about 1 million.
After a year of war, Carlos' theory has been proven countless times on the battlefield. Concentrating troops for legion decisive battles is a good way to break the numerical advantage of the Undead Scourge.
The Scourge's numerical superiority is based on the unique unit attributes of the undead units.
What properties?
Four words, immortal plague soldier.
As an undead unit, whether it is a skeletal soldier or a ghoul, it is easy to transform, carries the plague virus with it, is highly contagious, and is both a soldier and a weapon in itself.
However, the advantages are there, and the disadvantages are also there.
Poor mobility, weak individual combat effectiveness, no brains, afraid of the commander being beheaded, and unable to execute difficult military plans.
Uther dragged the undead army abandoned by Arthas in Stratholme. Mograine reported that the number of undead troops standing in front of him was more than 300,000.
This means that Garithos only has 700,000 at most.
This is only a theoretical number, the real number of Scourge Legion should be less.
Carlos's original plan was to use 50,000 people to hold back at least 200,000 undead in Lordaeron, creating a strategic window for Garithos where the alliance would have the upper hand in both military strength and combat effectiveness.
But plans never change quickly.
Various accidental factors caused Carlos's situation to be far smaller than expected in terms of both the number of troops and their actual effects.
Then Carlos won't pretend anymore, you undead natural disaster looks down on me, I will make you pay the price!
It takes five days from the current position of the Garithos Corps to reach the city of Lordaeron, and it takes one day for Carlos to get to the city of Lordaeron. So how many days does it take for Carlos to rush to the Silverpine Forest?
Three days.
Because the road is easy to walk.
The Alliance's 300,000 troops were blocked on the last ten miles of Silver Pine Mountain Road. This was a situation that Carlos could not accept.
Since the "3+1" strategy can no longer be realized, then don't play so many tricks.
A strong attack is also a rushing attack.
In a battle involving hundreds of thousands of people, someone will always die, either fighting for the alliance or being killed by the undead.
Carlos had only one request for his followers who would follow him against the current.
Keep up.
When the Alliance's Generalissimo stands at the forefront and opens the way, any cowardice is an unforgivable betrayal.
The "contempt" of Carlos by the Undead Scourge resulted in a shortage of containment forces. When this lone army of 20,000 people turned westward, the Scourge commanders in Lordaeron realized that there was a serious problem.
Garithos' offensive was overwhelming, and the Undead Scourge used his previous response method to block the alliance from Hillsbrad on Silverpine Pass.
Every step forward requires alliance soldiers to exchange their flesh and blood.
However, this is not without cost. Regarding the northern exit of Silver Pine Mountain Road, although the Natural Disaster of the Undead was heavily guarded, the offensive and defensive momentum was eventually reversed. Building a blocking position in a short period of time is already a great thing, but it is simply impossible to build a complete defense system. Possible things.
This means that facing away from Garithos, the Undead Scourge has no defenses.
After learning of this situation, Carlos decided to conduct an extremely risky march.
Although commanders of various front armies have been arranged, and although a lone army has landed on the beach, there is a completely different situation between having a supreme commander and not having a supreme commander.
Finally, the communication ended, and Carlos cut off contact with all his colleagues, almost acting alone.
Therefore, in just one day, the originally fierce battle situation became intense. Garithos launched an almost crazy attack, trying to rush out of Silver Pine Pass to meet Carlos.
However, if you can't break through, you can't break through, and the number of casualties on the alliance's side has increased sharply.
With pursuers behind him and a formidable enemy in front of him, all his baggage was abandoned. Carlos's almost crazy move seemed unreasonable and seemed to have lost his mind.
However, it was in this situation that he once again proved his great martial arts skills.
At the cost of nearly half of the casualties, Carlos completed the three-day journey in two days. In an almost crazy manner, he created an opportunity for Garithos to break through the obstacles.
The winner should not be criticized. The alliance's 300,000-strong Western Front Army finally broke through the obstacles and rushed out of the Silver Pine Mountain Road when Carlos used an exhausted 10,000 men to attack the 100,000 undead.
However, when Garithos led the cavalry across the battlefield, Carlos' anxiety became more and more burning in his heart.
"Your Majesty, we have won! Lordaeron is ahead!"
"No! No, go north, continue north, go to the port!"
The number is wrong, the number of undead natural disasters is wrong, and Carlos urgently needs to know what conspiracy is involved.
