Chapter 279: Strategic Detour


Just when the Alterac Kingdom breathed a sigh of relief, they didn't notice that the number of tribes going south was slowly decreasing.After all, the orcs have excellent wolf cavalry, especially the white wolf cavalry of the frost wolf tribe, which is the best among the orcs, although it is not as obvious as the advantage on the plains, but the wolf has good mobility even in the forest and mountains, which is not comparable to the wolf.The orcs have a lot of wolf cavalry, and the human scouts can't get too close to the orcs, they can only observe from a distance on the mountain peaks, so there is no way to control the true number of tribes in real time.Originally, when the tribe migrated, the old, weak, women and children walked slowly, in the middle and rear of the tribe, and there were many orcs to protect it, which was also normal, but this time the southward migration, the rear troops left an unusually large number of guardian forces.The tribe has many clans and complex personnel, and the subtle thing is that the vast majority of the vanguard troops moving south are wolf cavalry, which is very fast, and it seems that they don't care that the tribe is stretched, leaving the large number of infantry behind far behind.Oakrant thought that they were anxious to join up with the orcs in the direction of the Stormwind Kingdom, so they sent an advance force with high mobility.Even so, the old and weak left behind in the rear, Oakland did not dare to sneak attack, because there were a large number of orc infantry to protect it, and Oakrant's family was weak, and he did not dare to fight hard, wishing that they could get out of the country as soon as possible.As the vanguard moved away, the kingdom of Alterac became more and more relaxed, and the kingdom of Stormwind became more and more nervous.The situation here is tense enough, and if these two tribes are really brought together, the pressure on Stormwind City will be too great.In the event that the Oakland Alliance was unsuccessful, the Stormwind Kingdom immediately contacted the dwarves in the hope of getting their help.Unfortunately, the dwarves did not want to get involved in the war between humans and orcs, but only gathered their armies to prevent orcs from raiding or raiding as they passed by.The dwarves also knew that if the orcs did destroy the Stormwind Kingdom, the dwarves would suffer as well.But no one could make up their minds to enter the war so early, so the dwarves chose to wait and see, but the dwarves still decided to support Stormwind City with a batch of sophisticated weapons and armor at a low price, and support Stormwind City against the orcs.When Stormwind got the news, both Ryan and Anduin had a lot of headaches.Strong countries are easy to be remembered, and it is because Stormwind is the top two countries among the Seven Kingdoms that other forces are so willing to let Stormwind City take the front to consume.Ryan had no choice but to re-issue a conscription order to assemble a temporary army to prevent another tribe from joining the attack.However, after waiting for many days, he did not wait for the news that the new tribe had entered the Stormwind Kingdom, which made Anduin feel very puzzled.After all, it has been discovered that the advance troops that are heading south are basically cavalry, and if they follow the normal speed, they should have reached the national border at this time, so did they stop and wait for the follow-up troops?

Anduin sent out his men to inquire about the news while dealing with the fierce attacks from Blackhan's side.Suddenly, Anduin had an idea in his mind, and he didn't have time to discuss it with King Lane, so he hurriedly wrote a letter and sent it to the Oakland Kingdom quickly.Anduin looked at the departing messenger and thought to himself, "If it is really as I thought, then the situation will be worse!"

Get rid of it, be sure to let Oakland prepare in advance!

”On the other side, the kingdom of Oakland is enthusiastically celebrating the successful repulsion of the orcs, although the orcs have not completely evacuated, but in the eyes of the upper echelons of Oakland, this time the war has achieved a great victory.Didn't you see that the famous Stormwind Kingdom was in a bitter battle, Ocrant was able to drive the orcs away, but he had a big face.The king of Oakland and the nobles set up a celebration feast, except for the villages and towns that were plundered and the families of the soldiers who died in the war, most of the people in the kingdom of Oakland were jubilant.However, what they did not know was that in the dense forest not far from the king, a large group of wolf cavalry was trudging in.Don't look at Durotan is usually an honest man, when he fights, his mind is not inferior to Orgrim, and with the assistance of Drektar, the two have set a strategic battle plan.The Horde appeared to be moving south, but in fact left the infantry in the rear and sent squadrons to hide from time to time along the way.The cavalry attracted a lot of attention in front, and when they reached the place where they were almost at the border, the wolf cavalry, who had plundered enough supplies, made a big turn, went around the bend directly, and threw off the watchers with a rapid march, and went back to the vicinity of the capital of the kingdom of Oakland, avoiding the avenue, and approaching the capital from the forest, taking advantage of the wolf's mobility, without being detected.Because the kingdom of the Oakland Kingdom is built on the mountain, and when it reaches a certain position, there is no dense forest around, so Durotan repaired in the dense forest for two days, and waited for the previously arranged, broke away from the team on the way south, and secretly approached the infantry, and then took advantage of the celebration of the Oakland Kingdom to suddenly launch a general attack.A large number of orcs launched a surprise attack on the capital of the Oakland Kingdom directly from the dense forest, with cavalry riding wolf cavalry in front and infantry wearing heavy armor.
