Chapter 1671: Spring Offensive (second more)

In this way, Duke was still very satisfied. Looking at the image of the door of fear peeked through the eyes of magic, Duke's mouth wrinkled with a thick smile.
"It's easier to smash one door than three."
The rebellion of the Ebon Knights confirms the famous saying "The strongest fortress is always broken from the inside."
With the base point of the shadow vault, Duke teleported unbridled and smashed the mage tower of the Scourge.
The blizzard that surrounds the entire Icecrown Glacier is not a natural thing. It was the magic fulcrum set by the first Lich King Ner'zhul on the veins of several important elements of the Icecrown Glacier. Thanks to the mage towers on these fulcrum, Ner'zhul's magic can pass through the entire ice crown glacier without any obstacles.
The Black Knights rebelled and killed the Lich in the mage's tower as soon as possible. Duke just cleaned his hands and tail.
There are a total of seven fulcrum points in the entire Icecrown Glacier, and a six-pointed star is formed around the evil castle of Marekaris.
It's not that a six-pointed star will become a five-pointed star by removing an angle. That kind of unbalanced collapse is the most deadly. Duke estimated that as long as his magic net had invaded the shadow vault and rooted here, the snowstorm power surrounding the Icecrown would drop by at least 50%.
The original artillery shells could not fly in, and the largest air-to-air battleship could enter. The difference between them was simply the difference between heaven and earth.
It is for this reason that Darien's surrender is precious.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the coalition forces surrounded the ice cap glaciers and formed multiple encircles-the Northwest is the Black Front Knights, the Northeast is the defense zone with the Crusader Trial Arena as the core, and the southeast is Dalaran, while the southwest Wintergrasp Fortress where Arcavon's Treasury is located.
In January, Duke Xun let Naxxramas launch a surprise attack and unexpectedly attacked him, directly winning the Balagad fortress just west of the Icecrown Glacier.
Immediately after the second half of the winter, the Scourge and the coalition were in a state of tug-of-war. Alsace, unwilling to launch, had launched a dozen large-scale attacks of three million and five million bones. From the remains of small animal-level hares, to the huge mammoth zombies and bone dragons, they are overwhelming.
The cost of several five-million-bone attacks was the death of an average of 35,000 people per battle and the scrapping of more than 1,000 tanks and heavy artillery.
This is still the coalition's tactics of using a large number of modern artillery to withstand the corpse sea of ​​the Scourge, otherwise it would not be uncommon for casualties to double.
The casualty numbers made Duke and Thrall look rather bad.
Duke is because of astronomical military spending.
Thrall lost his life. No way, the Alliance Army is moving towards diversification. The most basic melee sword and shield soldiers are the least. With the joining of the tribe, once the infantry war is involved, the main force on the top must be the orc infantry.
The only thing that can comfort Thrall is that the weapons provided by the Alliance to the Horde are quite good.
The strength and toughness of the steel weapons blessed by the Holy Light are worthy of praise, much better than the tribe's own equipment. And the alliance promised that the tribe could take away these weapons after the battle. Even the weapons used by the dead can be returned as relics to Kalimdor's loved ones.
This kindness has been unanimously praised by the Horde Expeditionary Forces.
It's a pity not that there isn't.
The war dead cannot remove the remains and must be cremated in place, which conflicts with the traditional orc shamanism. But there is no way, the corpse is not safe when it is sprinkled with holy water. As long as the dark magic of the Lich comes over, when the power of darkness exceeds the light, the corpse should still lie.
However, anyway, I still stand up.
Throughout the winter, the Alliance's factories have not been shut down, and have been operating in three shifts to produce arms and munitions.
When it was most in short supply, even Duke had to use the magic of the magic net to open the fixed portal to transport the injured to the rear and the shortest ammunition to the front.
Time entered March 26 of the Dark Portal.
The characteristics of Northrend as a polar continent, coupled with the high altitude of the ice plateau, are destined to have no spring blossoms here.
It's just that the temperature has changed from a few dozen degrees below zero to a few degrees below zero, and this is spring.
Without the cover of winter storms, Arthas finally converged, and the Scourge almost contracted, staying only in the ice cap glaciers.
In the coalition meeting hosted by Duke Naxos and Duke, the bigwigs either sent people to attend or sent messages by magic.
"The time has come for a full-scale attack on the Icecrown." Duke made this declaration as soon as he opened.
"Don't you wait until summer? Now, although it is spring, the power of the cold to the Dragon Breath of the Red Dragon Army is weakening a little."
Duke Shen said: "No more! I recently detected multiple space teleports. Presumably Arthas sent a large number of low- and medium-level Lich out, presumably to collect corpses. Wait too long, I'm afraid we're in Nuovo Sender will encounter an anti-encirclement, and even if he can hold it, it will put a lot of pressure on logistics. In June, either the troops will be reduced by 200,000 or the entire Northern Expeditionary Alliance will be hungry together, and only half full every day. "
Now the Northrend continent, after constantly recruiting soldiers, the alliance and the tribe together have a total of 500,000 troops. With so many people eating and drinking Lazar, plus the corresponding armament supplies, if there is no Duke, a super interior officer with system elves, it is estimated that just a logistics transfer can make a thousand people's logistics headquarters go crazy.
You know, excluding counts and judgments, there are already more than 3,000 logistic officers who perform logistical work alone. Non-military logistics personnel have not been included.
Fortunately, as early as the Battle of Mount Hyjal, the Alliance began to focus on training personnel for logistical supplies for cross-sea operations. It was barely enough for the logistics officer.
In fact, all the merchant ships of the Marcus family, Kul Tiras and Alterac, except the required regular commercial ships, have been levied to supply Northrend.
Still not enough.
"Alright. Decisive battle!" Thrall sighed. One hundred thousand soldiers were lost in one winter. If it was a tribe who had just arrived in Kalimdor, it would be badly injured. Even if the orc, Draenor, one hundred thousand young orc warriors, is still a big loss.
"If only we could have more troops, at least the offense can form a batch rotation." Magni muttered.
Thrall suddenly thought: "Yes, the Horde's Forgotten ... Anastrian said they were willing to fight."
"Huh?" Duke's eyes suddenly flashed.
