Once again, it is emphasized that the Northern Expedition is a systematic project, a decisive battle marked by the death of the Lich King, and with the ultimate goal of dismantling the threat of the undead natural disaster to all living people.
So don’t ask anymore, since there is an aerospace army, why not just ship and airdrop all the TOP50 most capable players in the alliance to Icecrown Citadel.
Guard, find out the identity of the reporter who asked this question. He is a Gulagya man.
If we had to compare the differences in the Northern Expedition between the Alliance and the Horde, we can only say that Carlos' plan was more complete.
Just looking at the number of troops and saying that the Horde doesn't care about it, isn't that a hooligan? The Alliance's population is three and a half times that of the Horde. The number of humans in Lordaeron alone is almost twice that of all the tribe's participating races. .
Given this disparity in size, the Horde has really tried its best, even more so than the Alliance in terms of military strength.
It's just that Thrall was coerced by the raging public opinion and could only take the death of Ner'zhul as the ultimate goal of the Northern Expedition.
Carlos finally gained control of the Eastern Kingdom and set the strategic goal of completely eliminating the threat of undead natural disasters.
Although the Alliance also wanted to let Alsace die, with the strategic goal in mind, the entire military operation became less impetuous and more rational.
In a word, fight steadily, and the bunker and turret will be launched!
This is what the so-called "coalition forces" are like. Once En'Qiraj is defeated, it stands to reason that they should head north to attack the Gate of Scourge.
However, when the Alliance returned to the old tradition of forming a stronghold and fighting stupid wars, the tribe was not a fool, and no one understood the principle of shooting the first bird.
It can only be said that Uther is a good front army commander who obeys orders.
According to his own thoughts, he actually wanted to advance all the way suddenly and attack the Gate of Scourge while taking advantage of the historical opportunity when Arthas was inexplicably hit by Yin Lidan's evil kick.
However, Carlos strictly ordered the Eastern and Western Front armies of the Northern Expedition to obey Varian Wrynn's command when attacking Icecrown Glacier.
What is Varian doing at this time?
Just after beating the naturalized Mongolians and the kobolds all over the mountains and plains, Naxxramas took advantage of them.
So Varian is screaming for help!
Uther felt that he was quite capable, but he was not arrogant enough to think that relying on the exhausted troops who had just finished the bloody battle with N'Qiraj, he could go to the lair of the Undead Scourge to cause trouble.
This is too much and belongs to the category of brain disorders rather than self-confidence.
In addition, the distance from the Borean Tundra to the Dragon Bone Wilderness is less than a hundred kilometers, and the climate of the frozen tundra suddenly transitions to the permafrost climate of the northern temperate coniferous forest. It is very confusing and cold, and the body and atmosphere are very cold. Kind of confused.
Paladins are not illiterate. Uther has been traveling all over the world for many years, and he still has the most basic knowledge of botany.
The Dragon Bone Wilderness is extremely icy and snowy, and it is most likely caused by magic.
The coniferous forests that can grow in the northern temperate zone should not be permanently frozen, but the hard ice shell outside the trees and the vastness of the earth cannot be faked.
The road ahead is difficult.
Uther can only use the alliance's excellent style of building bunkers without hesitation in times of trouble.
Then a group of Silver Hand vanguard paladins who are still capable of fighting will be dispatched to support Commander Varian in the Late Winter Fortress, which is already beginning to take shape.
Since the comrade General Marshal of the South demanded a steady and steady approach, Uther was too lazy to engage in the "you will regret it" thing.
Even the Horde felt that the Alliance's fire coverage theory worked. Uther felt that it really worked after seeing the Holy Light Bomb tactic with his own eyes.
There is nothing wrong with collecting a batch of supplies before advancing. Anyway, the original war plan was to complete the Northern Expedition in three to five years.
Now in less than a year, I can see the Gate of Scourge from a distance. This progress is pretty good...
Uther's ideological work was done by himself, but Varian found it difficult to forgive himself.
Bolvar can defeat Northrend, but I, Varian, cannot!
I think my Seventh Legion has a strong foundation and many red soldiers. It is the elite of Stormwind City and a first-class legion. Why am I so annoyed by building a Late Winter Fortress?
Did this boy Bolvar get scratched by a kobold back then?
It’s still the same old problem, the league’s insufficient capacity.
Northrend is not Pandaria. There are no hospitable pandaren to promote local delicacies, and there is no mature road system that can be used directly.
After Garithos conquered Utgard Castle, the most important follow-up task was to rebuild the local production order in Howling Fjord and build a new road transportation system.
In the Hillsbrad area, if you sell a standard bag of flour for 100 gold coins, local residents dare to throw red paint on your door in the middle of the night.
But in Howling Fjord, the purchase price given by the alliance logistics department was one hundred and fifty gold coins.
Because the wheat purchased from the Eastern Kingdom and sent to Northrend costs far more than a hundred gold coins.
The foot man in the game can prepare his own flying mount to chase the master all year round. He can actively click on the transaction and put in five gold coins, and the semi-automatic water-washing master will put two sets of bread and three and a half sets of magic mineral water for you. If two people come together It's even easier to ask for goods. You can set up a table to eat and drink, and the master can get some himself to save space in your backpack.
But the Alliance and the Horde cannot do that. Most of the food, drink, food, clothing, housing and transportation of the Northern Expedition soldiers need to be transported from the mainland. If Neltharion hadn't led the black dragon army to fight Azshara at the Eye of the Maelstrom, it would have been only the protection of the Naga family. Spending tolls can make the Northern Expedition come to an end without any problem.
With the end of the Battle of En'Qiraj, Uther and the tribe were busy repairing the bunker. The soldiers who had experienced the war took turns to rest and recuperate, and the western front also entered a strange state of recuperation.
Therefore, it is difficult for those who stayed behind in Dragon Sleep Temple not to pay attention to the Late Winter Fortress.
After all, it would be inappropriate not to have a dragon king present. Krasus originally wanted to invite Malygos to the tower to get an overview of the whole situation.
However, his other three brothers and sisters have been unwilling to fire the black dragon's guardian, Malygos. Although he is a local dragon in Northrend, he does not like to see the Wyrmrest Council.
In front of Krasus, Malygos spat out a mouthful of ambergris saliva, clearly refusing to say anything.
Fine.
As a nursery base jointly funded by the Five-Colored Dragon Legion, the Five-Colored Dragon Holy Land is an extremely important explosive facility for the Guardian Dragon Legion.
After all, Azeroth is so big. A few dozen or even hundreds of adult dragons cannot protect the world.
Dragon beasts, dragonmen, half-dragons, and young dragons specialized in combat are also important parts of the dragon army.
Although the five-color dragons have bases in other places, the five-color dragon holy land in Dragon Bone Wilds, as the oldest hatchery, still has extremely important strategic value.
It just so happened that it was the Red Dragon Legion's turn to be responsible for the security work in this hundred years. Malygos's refusal could not find any loopholes in the rules and regulations, so of course he should not be blamed.
Krasus, or Korestraz as he should be called by the name of the dragon at this time, could only take the time to see his nominal apprentice Ronin, said a few words of encouragement, and then hurriedly returned to Wuse The Dragon Sanctuary continues to increase in value.
The Northern Expedition of the Alliance and the Horde is not bad news for the dragon. With the steady advancement on the east and west fronts, the Undead Scourge is also shrinking its troops, which greatly eases the pressure on the Dragon Alliance's lineup.
After all, when the black dragon, bronze dragon, and blue dragon are all working at the same time, the pressure on the red dragon and the green dragon to maintain the safety of the sanctuary is too great.
