MTL - Civilization of Azeroth: Start the Great Pyramid-Chapter 375 league loss
Buzz~~
Countless swarms of bees flew out from the ground along the huge joints, followed by spiders crawling out along the joints.
Compared to the human-sized swarm, these pigeon-sized alien wasps and dog-sized alien spiders are nothing more than small insects.
These little bugs didn't attack the alliance, but moved around the giant arthropods.
The alien spider spun silk and swayed between the joints, and soon a huge web surrounding the eight joints wove its prototype. Bee swarms flew around the big net, secreting beeswax on the woven spider silk.
"They are building strongholds in this way! They must not be allowed to succeed!"
Krasus said excitedly, he rushed out of the headquarters regardless of his identity for a moment, lifted his head and let out a long roar, and then got a response from Buck and other dragons.
"Destroy it! The swarm has such an efficient construction technology, and there is a huge army. If they are allowed to advance sequentially based on this, we will be attacked by soldiers sooner or later!"
Krasus' words alerted everyone, the change was really too sudden, and the offensive and defensive momentum of the enemy and the enemy completely changed in just an instant.
Originally, the second column and the fifth column could rely on the defense line of the Great Pyramid to wait for work and bury all the bugs in the Qingquan Plain. But the situation is completely different now. If the alliance does not want to see the swarm build a stronghold, the troops must go out of the defense line and face the 100,000 army of worms!
"His Royal Highness, you lead the dragon army to destroy the swarm stronghold, I will send flying troops to support you, and leave this place to us."
Hearing Li De's shout behind him, Krasus nodded and then flew into the sky.
Li De returned to his command position and looked at the remaining three commanders.
"Guys, what should we do now?"
Magni spoke first.
"I agree with the decision to send flying troops, and at the same time I don't think it should be rushed to send ground troops."
Antonidas also said later.
"That's right, there is a huge gap between the enemy and our troops. If we give up our position and take the initiative to attack, we will lose all our advantages. The mage troops have a certain ability to fly at low altitudes, and they can also participate in battles when necessary."
The last one to speak was Lothar.
"Then arrange it like this first, notify Kurdran and Kel'Thuzad to attack, and the rest of the troops stay put and stand by."
…
The moment the giant dragons appeared in the sky, it was as if a scoop of cold water was poured into a hot oil pan in the swarm camp and exploded in an instant. A huge "shady curtain" suddenly stood up from the swarm, facing towards With the dragon troop covering the past.
It is tens of thousands of adult-sized giant alien bees that make up this shady scene.
What's even more shocking is that these tens of thousands of giant alien bees are flying relatively still with each other. The entire screen of insects seems to be moving in the air, and even the humming of their wings is uniform.
Halfway through the flight, the bee colony was neatly divided into six flight formations. They were like the most sophisticated machines, and the teams carried out the flight movements without any disorder. Even during the cross flight, there was no problem. Two alien bees collide.
The swarm used an unprecedented fighting method to deal a head-on blow to the giant dragons. They were massive and agile, but the size advantage of the giant dragon seemed clumsy.
The dragons tried to forcibly break through the flying insect swarm, but the insect swarm changed postures, like a huge roller hanging in the air, gnawing at the dragon like a shadow, their jaws were hard and powerful, even The dragon couldn't bear the pain too.
Seeing that he could not forcefully break through, Krasus could only issue another order.
"Fly up and suppress them!"
The flying heights that dragons can reach are beyond the reach of insects. It is a good way to condescend to use magic to form suppression. However, under the flame magic of the dragon, the bugs who had suffered the first round of losses quickly responded.
Directly reducing the number of attacks by magic to zero, and as long as the dragon does not attack the giant pillar, the swarm will not actively attack the dragon. Even if the giant dragon used magic to attack them from a distance, they still carried out the order to guard the giant insect pillar without any emotion.
"Are they animals or a group of machines?!"
Even the knowledgeable Kel'Thuzad was shocked at this moment. He had spent two years studying flora and fauna, but the behavior of the swarm in front of him was completely beyond his comprehension. Unlike rational life.
Flying troops riding griffins and manticores and mages manipulating magic props also participated in the battle. They had to be more cautious with the lessons learned from the dragon, but even so they didn't get any cheap.
The giant swarm of alien bees constantly changed their team posture, like a huge veil firmly guarding the worm pillar, no matter what the dragon, flying troops and mages could do, they couldn't break through their defense line.
The construction of the insect pillar with eight huge arthropods as the skeleton, the construction of small alien spiders and alien bees is also gradually perfected. Judging from the current progress, the time left for the alliance is only three hours at most.
At the same time, the four column commanders and deputy commanders of the Supreme Command, Dathrohan, Garvan, Fandral Stormpike, and Toshley, gathered together to ask for battle.
"We have already made it very clear that there is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and ourselves, and the ground troops are sacrificed in vain."
Lothar categorically rejected the challenge from several people, but the four of them still did not give up, but Dathrohan and Garfan were both of the type who were not good at words, and they didn't know how to refute Lothar for a while.
Unexpectedly, the rough-looking Fandral Stormpike has a clear mind and eloquence that is far from matching his appearance.
"Marshal, the army has a disparity in strength between the enemy and us, isn't it the air force? And if we don't take measures, we can only watch the enemy complete the goal.
Our two columns are mainly cavalry, and it is impossible for the cavalry to defend the position to exert its maximum combat effectiveness. On the contrary, on the battlefield, cavalry is often a unit that can create miraculous effects regardless of the difference in strength between the enemy and ourselves.
As for the issue of defensive positions, all the fighters in our two columns except the cavalry will stay, and they will also be supported by a large number of combat machines made by dwarf engineers. "
Having said that, Toshley Trigger lifted his goggles proudly.
"Thanks to the astonishing steel production of the Guardian of the Great Sea, this place is simply paradise for the dwarves."
Lei Mao's words actually convinced Lothar to some extent. He exchanged glances with several other commanders, and Magni affirmed Lei Mao's words.
"The cavalry has strong maneuverability. Even if they can't win, there is no problem in getting out from the battlefield, but you must be careful. The enemy this time is different from before."
In this way, Lothar finally made up his mind.
"All the cavalry in the second column and the fifth column are dispatched, and all the other commanders and fighters stick to the battlefield and stand by."
Then Lothar gave another order.
"Notify Muun Shaman that the space left by the cavalry will be filled by the Ring of the Earth. If necessary, Loa and the Wilderness Demigod must be invited to join the battle."
Li De nodded immediately.
"Okay, I'll talk about it."
…
Thunder Spear's words are not bragging. If used properly, cavalry can indeed turn the tide of battle regardless of the difference in strength.
The cavalry has an overwhelming advantage over the infantry in terms of mobility and destructive power. If the infantry formation is too dense, then when the cavalry charges, it will cause crowding and trampling among the soldiers due to the stress response. At this time, if the infantry formation If it is too rigid to respond in time, it is very likely that it will be completely defeated in a charge.
It's a pity that this kind of situation is destined not to be seen in today's swarm.
Anachronos said that bugs are a group of monsters without thinking, emotion or even pain. But before today, what the alliance understood was that bugs could attack wildly and uninterruptedly.
Today, the alliance finally saw the most terrifying aspect of the swarm, that is, they can't feel the existence of themselves in the worms! They can execute orders without the slightest fluctuation, even if the order is to let them die!
No matter how the 3,000 cavalry of the second and fifth columns charge, the Zerg army can always change their formation quickly to deal with it, and there is no confusion at all. This order prohibits the most well-trained troops of the alliance to keep up.
After more than a dozen rounds of charging, the alliance cavalry not only had no hope of crushing the swarm, but was almost eaten by the swarm several times.
A group of wind-riding manticores passed by at low altitude, conveying the order to the cavalry to retreat. It was the high command who saw that they risked annihilation of the entire army, but failed to reach the set goal, and finally decided to recall the troops.
"Galvan, let's retreat."
Dathrohan roared unwillingly, and called back his even more unwilling partner.
Just after the cavalry troops withdrew to the Qingquan Plain position, the high command could only accept the reality of defeat.
"Let Prince Krasus and the others withdraw as well, we lost this battle."
Lothar propped his hands on the table, but he didn't show much discouragement.
"It's not terrible to lose a battle. No army can win forever. In today's battle, our troops did not lose a lot, but this passive feeling makes us breathless. I think we need to deepen our understanding of the enemy. understanding."
Anachronos, who had just returned to the command headquarters, heard what Lothar said, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com guilt instantly filled his heart.
"I'm extremely sorry, this is my great dereliction of duty as a staff officer. In order to make up for my mistake, I will invite an expert who really understands the Zerg to guide me, although that person may not really want to see me."
The words of the bronze guard aroused everyone's curiosity. The bronze dragon talked too much, and it always seemed a bit tantalizing.
Fortunately, in the current situation, Anachronos did not dare to play tricks.
"This expert is the Archdruid of the Kaldorei: Fandral Buckhelm."
