Volume 4: The Fall of the Dragon Chapter 229 Who is the protagonist?
Three days later - Kalimdor.
Boom! Deathwing's huge body landed heavily on the highest peak of the Stoneclaw Mountains.
Murphy glanced around and found that most of the Black Dragon Lords of the Black Dragon Legion had already arrived. There were nine Black Dragon Lords in total, surrounding him. Further out were densely packed black dragons, like a black cloud covering the mountains.
This is the third large-scale gathering of the Black Dragon Legion this year.
The first Dalaran dragon disaster, the second Black Gate Battle, and now they are participating in the war between the night elves and the centaurs. It has to be said that the black dragon army is more active than ever before.
"Morpheus!" he shouted.
An ancient black dragon immediately flew over from the group of dragons.
"Lord Neltharion, what do you want?"
Morpheus bowed his head and looked extremely submissive. If he had not witnessed with his own eyes a few days ago how Morpheus and Nefarian had recruited people to beat him up, it would have been hard for Murphy to imagine that this guy would do such a big thing.
I don’t know whether he went to find the four guardian dragons and whether he got their consent.
He glanced at Nefarian next to him, who looked honest and obedient, completely different from his usual high-profile self.
Morpheus felt the gaze of Deathwing in front of him and felt vaguely that it was a bit strange, as if that look saw through him.
No, it must be an illusion. My plan was perfect, and Deathwing had already started to think about it, so it was impossible for him to notice it.
Morpheus (Ancient Black Dragon): "Lord Neltharion, what are we doing here?"
Neltharion (Black Dragon King): "You will know soon, but for now, you just need to wait. Send out the young dragons to scout the situation nearby, especially the situation in Ashenvale."
Immediately, dozens of black dragons flew high into the sky and launched a reconnaissance in the direction of Gray Valley.
The black young dragon was small in size and flew very fast, making it a very good scout. It soon found some clues during its investigation, and the first one to come back and report was an acquaintance.
Night Fury (Black Dragon Sky Patroller): "Lord Neltharion, there is a war going on between the night elves and centaurs nearby. There are so many centaurs."
"How's the battle going?"
Ye Fury immediately reported the summarized battle situation.
The Centaur Empire currently firmly controls the initiative on the battlefield. From aerial observations, it can be seen that the Centaur army is divided into several routes, launching attacks simultaneously from the east, southeast, south, southwest, and west of Ashenvale. Due to their huge numbers, they completely obscured the battlefield, and Centaur scouts and rangers were everywhere.
The night elves' outposts were besieged and suppressed everywhere, and were constantly lost.
However, the night elves also have their advantages. The night elves are the race that is best at fighting in the forest. They are fighting on their home turf and can use Shadowmeld to hide their bodies in the dark forest. In addition, the centaurs' mobility cannot be fully utilized in the forest, and their huge size makes them the best target, resulting in the corpses of centaurs being seen everywhere in the entire Ashenvale Forest.
The Centaur Empire is clearly using the sacrifice of troops to gain strategic advantage.
This kind of punishment is cruel, but it is effective.
Murphy nodded, "Very good, continue scouting, I need to be informed of the battle situation at all times."
…
at the same time--
"Your Majesty, the third army has captured the Lingo Temple, and most of the night elves and elven dragons there have retreated."
"Humph, as expected."
"Your Majesty, we have discovered violent vines summoned by the night elves ahead. The goblin engineering team is clearing them out."
"Don't worry, take your time, just make sure you make some progress every day."
"Your Majesty, the Night Elves' Eaglehorn Knights launched another surprise attack, and we lost more than 700 peripheral troops."
"Have the Human Resources Department dispatch reinforcements immediately to make up for the losses and ensure that there are no holes in our blockade."
"Yes, your majesty."
The Great Emperor Shenwu was listening to the reports of his generals (employees) while issuing orders casually. By the third day of the war, the Imperial Golden Horde had penetrated from the border of Grey Valley to a position sixty kilometers deep in Grey Valley.
Facing the constant attacks of the night elves in the forest, being able to advance twenty kilometers a day is already very good progress.
Looking at the map, the densely packed golden flags representing the Centaur troops almost spread to one-third of the Grey Valley, while the blue flags representing the Night Elves were gradually compressed. The situation had become very clear. After suffering huge casualties, the five Centaur armies had greatly compressed the strategic depth of the Night Elves.
Just waiting for the final decisive battle.
During this period, the night elves also tried to launch an ambush, hoping to wipe out one or two Centaur armies, but thanks to Lin Meng's intelligence and the Centaur's advantage in mobility, the night elves failed to seize the opportunity in each ambush. Instead, the Centaur took the opportunity to counter-ambush, causing certain casualties to the night elves.
Of course, the Centaurs suffered more losses. Among the million-strong Centaur army, most of them were small monsters of levels ten or twenty, with very limited combat effectiveness. Even if they were outnumbered, they would still die in large numbers.
However, the loss of ten or twenty thousand troops is nothing to an army of one million, while a few thousand casualties is enough to cause serious damage to the night elves.
It can be seen that although Tyrande is proficient in tactics, she still . She can't even make up her mind to conduct a large-scale retreat and jump out of the circle to conduct guerrilla warfare.
This is actually the best approach at the moment, but the night elves are a powerful race with a heritage of thousands of years after all, and face is still very important. Astranaar is one of the two most important cities in Ashenvale, and it is also an important node leading to Felwood and the World Tree. No matter what, the night elves will not give up easily.
Next, they will probably have to face the night elf army and clusters of ancient war trees, as well as reinforcements coming from all over the place.
A brutal war is inevitable, but it doesn't matter. We have a million Centaur troops on our side, and we can easily kill them even if we pile them up.
He glanced at Grom Hellscream and Gul'dan, who was standing aside with a humbly look on his face.
At first Gul'dan thought of the Divine Emperor as just a native chieftain of a remote area, but after witnessing the professionalism and huge scale of the Centaur Empire's war with his own eyes, he couldn't help but look at him with awe.
Such powerful force is quite amazing even for mortals. If I can use it to help me open the Tomb of Sargeras, I can definitely do it.
The only question is, how do we take advantage of it instead of being taken advantage of by it?
Gul'dan had been with the Divine Emperor for a long time and could already feel that the Divine Emperor was not someone who could be easily fooled. He was as shrewd as Orgrim, and maybe even smarter.
Although Orgrim is shrewd, he is still within the normal range.
But this great and powerful emperor always seemed to have a feeling that he could see through everything. Gul'dan even felt vaguely that the other party seemed to know him very well.
This made him feel incredibly weird.
The Great Emperor (Khan of the Empire): "Gul'dan, what do you think of the current war situation?"
Gul'dan (Demon Master): "Ah, your majesty, although I am proficient in magic, I am not very good at war. However, if you need me, I can cast a powerful magic for you to destroy the forest in front of you."
What he meant by destruction was naturally contamination with evil energy.
"No, not yet. This forest will become my territory and cannot be destroyed easily. Besides, I don't want to anger Cenarius."
at the same time--
As more and more young dragons came back to report, more details of the war appeared in Murphy's eyes.
I didn't expect that this Shenwu Emperor is so powerful that he can actually defeat the night elves. The rich man is really awesome.
Murphy couldn't help but sigh. This guy must have invested hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars to achieve this.
The hundreds of gaming helmets alone would cost tens of millions. And then there are the BOSS accounts built by his subordinates. Even if some of them were upgraded by himself, it would probably cost at least two or three hundred million.
He is really rich and can do whatever he wants.
But it’s also good. The more powerful this Shenwu Emperor is, the easier it will be for his plan to succeed.
It’s about time I took action.
At this moment, a message suddenly flashed in the private chat channel.
Wang Xuan: Murphy, how is it, are you there?
Deathwing: Already in place.
Wang Xuan: Be careful when you take action. I just received intelligence that the Emperor Shenwu has already subdued Hellscream, Gul'dan, and Cairne Bloodhoof. He has several world-class bosses under his command, a large number of disaster-level bosses, and hundreds of terrifying skeleton-level bosses.
You'd better take it easy and don't get yourself involved.
What? The Great Emperor of God could even subdue Hellscream and Gul'dan? Could this guy be the legendary protagonist of a YY novel?
Murphy was speechless. The army of one million Centaurs was already difficult to deal with, and now with so many BOSSes added, this lineup was even more luxurious than the Black Dragon Legion.
There is also the advantage of numbers. If I hadn't planned ahead, I would have been unable to accomplish this.
Deathwing: Do me a favor and help me locate the other four Aspects and see where they are now.
Wang Xuan: Why do you want to locate other guardian dragons?
Deathwing: The black dragonflight is on an expedition to Kalimdor. With such a big commotion, what if it attracts the attention of other guardian dragons? Naturally, we have to pay attention to it.
Wang Xuan: Okay, wait a moment.
A few minutes later——
Wang Xuan: Damn, the four guardian dragons are all in Karim, what a joke.
Murphy was delighted. Sure enough, he came. He didn't expect that this guy Murphys was so efficient.
Wang Xuan: It's over, it's over. This is not good. If you make a move and attract the four guardian dragons to attack you, what are you going to do? This is bad news.
Deathwing: Haha, don't worry, let me make sure first, your goal is to prevent the night elves from being defeated by the Centaur Empire, right?
Wang Xuan: That’s right, but the situation of the night elves is already very bad. We were counting on you to save the situation, but now the four guardian dragons have broken in. You will be surrounded and beaten as soon as you make a move. It’s all over.
Deathwing: Don't worry, I have ways to solve your problems, but I may need to play freely next, so don't be too surprised if any strange things happen.
Wang Xuan: As long as you can protect the night elves, you can do whatever you want.
Humph, that’s what I’ve been waiting for you to say.
Murphy looked at the black dragon lords behind him and said, "Stay here and wait for my order. I need to leave for a while."
As Murphy spoke, he flapped his wings and took off. The huge body of Deathwing flew directly towards the central military tent of the Centaur Empire.
