How could those high-ranking officials understand that sewers are the lifeblood of a city!
When the intelligence elites of Lordaeron and Elvin crossed the mountains and came to this side of the sea for the same goal, before they could use their ancestral skills of coercion, inducement, and bribery, the two damn castles and fortresses became impossible for spies to eat. The secret front of spitting bones sadly.
It's so hard, it's so hard to work in Northrend. Although the Walrus people struggled repeatedly, they agreed to provide Turtle Ship transportation services for the Alliance and the Horde, giving the Horde and the Alliance a reliable means of crossing the vast sea of floating ice between the Borean Tundra and Howling Fjord.
But it's of no use. The two war fortresses of Utgarde Castle and the holy city of En'Qiraj are too difficult to conquer.
The city of Alterac, which had been blessed by war PTSD, was a bit unsatisfactory in front of these two war fortresses. The city of Lordaeron, once the only pearl of Lordaeron, was as brittle as a paper lake in front of these two war cities.
In the Holy City of En'Qiraj, Uther could still find a reason to have magical blessings for the little demon fairy Balabala. Utgard Castle slapped Garithos with a loud slap in the face purely through physical means.
You know, Garithos summoned off-field support. As soon as Varian arrived at Howling Fjord, there was also the magical horn worth 20 million Alliance gold coins. The Blue Dragon Legion put integrity first. After the horn blew, they cooperated with the Alliance to launch an attack, almost defeating them in one battle. Slaughtered all the Ancestral Dragon Flying Team of the Yinmia Vrykul people.
Taking advantage of the blue dragon's absolute air superiority, Garithos completed a sweep of almost all Vrykul residential areas outside Utgard Castle.
The vrykul towers and longhouses surrounding Utgarde Castle were either captured or burned. But even so, Utgarde Castle, which has lost all outer cover, is still incredibly strong.
Because this castle is a three-dimensional fortress built on the cliff. When attacking from the bottom of the fjord, the troops on the upper level of the cliff are completely unable to provide suppressive firepower. When attacking from the upper level, the inverted sloping terrace on the middle level of Utgard Castle can attack the upper level. The gate provided direct fire support; the Alliance launched a full-scale attack, and the Vrykul easily responded by taking advantage of their familiarity with the terrain and their high ground visibility.
A castle in Utgard that almost broke the spirit of Warmaster Garithos. It shouldn’t be. How could there be so many Vrykul crammed into such a castle? This shouldn’t be the case!
Just looking at the results, the Alliance forces, which are superstitious about firepower superiority, have purely confirmed kills of 60,000.
These are the 60,000 Vrykul who left behind corpses. They are soldiers. The piles of these corpses can block the fjord channel. Why are there so many defenders in Utgard Castle?
Underground passage... Stop making trouble. Garithos is not a fool. He has already installed equipment to monitor the vibrations of the land around Utgard Castle. There are no large-scale underground vibrations at all.
So are these Vrykul people hanging on the beams like old bacon? Otherwise, how could this castle hold so many troops?
Garithos thought that the Scourge was evil enough, but now after experiencing it personally, the Vrykul were also evil enough.
Oh, the Vrykul from the Kingdom of Yimia have already joined the Scourge, so that's okay. Each batch of ships will bring new troops, new equipment, new magic and technical support, but now Garithos has suffered 7,000 casualties, and has more than 40,000 people surrounding a stone castle to bombard almost four However, there was no hope of victory at all for months. He didn't know whether his men were in a hurry or not. Anyway, Garithos's gums were already red and swollen, and it was so painful that it was difficult to chew bread.
This is a very unreasonable thing. It is not just Vrykul people who build castles. Which kingdom in Lordaeron has not built a strong castle that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and which army has no experience in defending and attacking castles.
It shouldn't be, you know. It's nothing more than heavy artillery bombardment, tunnel excavation, food and water deprivation, internal and external coordination, these tactics have been proven by countless practices.
However, all the outer residential areas of the Vrykul have been occupied. Although the water supply cannot be cut off, Garithos is very sure that from the day the siege defense line he designed was built, not a single load of food has been leaked into Utgard Castle.
Don’t the Vrykul even eat? That shouldn't be the case. Prisoners eat a lot. Tunnel excavation is not very easy. The base here is solid granite. Coupled with the existence of low-temperature deep water zones and deep permafrost areas, the tunnels dug by the Vrykul themselves are already very developed. The Alliance engineering force wants to dig an unexpected one. Unexpected and authentic, really unrealistic.
Although the Vrykul's Utgard Castle is not as magical as the nerubin's holy city of En'Qiraj, and it will be shattered by heavy artillery bombardment, the outer wall is too thick, and Northrend is not Luo. Danlun, more than a dozen ships of gunpowder and explosives are really not enough for the castle that the Vrykul have built for hundreds of years.
At the historic moment when Garithos evolved from red and swollen gums to dry stools, the director of the Alliance Intelligence Department, a bald man codenamed Brother Bald, brought good news and bad news to the commander-in-chief of the Alliance Front in Howling Fjord. .
"Let me tell you the good news first. I need to refresh myself." Garithos had eaten well in Pandaria and was not interested in Northrend's military supplies for the Northern Expedition at all. The good wine in the camp he commanded came from Lordaeron. I brought it from my own manor. I just opened the cork and threw a whole bottle to Brother Bald.
Brother Bald wasn't polite either, he was the first to do it as a courtesy. Twelve special service agents entered Utgard Castle, and only three came out alive. He felt that his intelligence was worthy of this bottle of wine.
"The good news is that we have found a sewer system that connects the upper, middle and lower floors of the entire castle. It is wide and large enough to be transformed into a troop transport channel." After listening to this, Garithos couldn't help but smile with joy, and put it in the box again After picking and choosing, I selected a bottle with a blue ribbon and handed it to Brother Bald.
"The blue classic that has been stored for hundreds of years in the Pandaren Storm Brewery, a genuine product that is valuable but not marketable, is yours." Brother Bald was not polite and accepted the gift from the handsome man before telling the bad news.
"The bad news is that we discovered the secret behind the endless supply of Vrykul troops. They have mastered the technology of drying and storing living people, and used magic to reawaken the old Vrykul bacon stored in the tombs to replenish their troops." Garithos groaned in pain.
God knows how much Vrykulao bacon the Kingdom of Yimia has produced in the past hundreds or thousands of years... How should we fight this battle? Garithos has some signs of brain hypoxia.
"So do you have any suggestions for the current war situation?"
"Yes, let's give up the all-out attack. Use the sewer I mentioned, concentrate our forces to attack the bottom layer, and first cut off the connection between the upper and lower parts of Utgard Castle." Brother Bald found a pen and paper on the table and used himself as a sneak The sense of space developed over decades of experience provided Garithos with a rough structural diagram of the interior of Utgard Castle.
Then Garithos's eyes lit up and he understood what Brother Bald meant.
"There is a transit area similar to the war hall on the lower level of the castle. If you take this place, you can cut off the communication between the upper and lower parts of the castle."
"That's right, let's make good use of the information we gained in exchange for our lives. I have to go and have a good sleep. Well, okay."
