Azeroth Shadow of the Moon

Since Andrea took the first batch of Chimera back from Winterspring, the druids who became more proficient in their business went to Feralas and Winterspring many times, and brought back many precious heavy air mounts for Moonnight City. .

The previous battles with the Sandfury troll were all petty fights, and the expeditionary force never brought out the killer weapon of the Chimera cavalry.

This time, the battle to determine the ownership of the Tanaris Desert and even the survival of the Sandfury trolls started. Not only did the Sandfury trolls continue to recruit troops in the clan, but the night elves also brought out various under-the-counter troops. .

The Kodo cavalry rushed into the enemy's formation wildly, their huge size and heavy mass pushing away the trolls along the way.

Coupled with the Frostsaber cavalry who entered from the flanks to slow down and tear apart the formation of the Sandfury trolls, the front formation of the Sandfury trolls was torn apart, and the lack of discipline of the large army looked chaotic from a high altitude.

The Chimera is at least 2-3 times larger than the Hippogryph. This heavy unit usually carries two knights on its back.

One of them is responsible for controlling the untamed chimeras, directing them to use their natural abilities to attack the enemy.

The configuration of the other knight is relatively free. It can be an arcanist who acts as a heavy turret in the sky, or a ranger who rains arrows from the sky.

Nasa's battle priest troops take into account both combat and support capabilities. While using long-range weapons such as moon wheels and bows and arrows to kill trolls, they can also use healing and protection spells to protect Chimeras who are attacked by trolls throwing spears .

"Roar!"

Hundreds of chimeras took off and covered the sky above the battlefield. Under the order of the leader of the air riders, all the chimeras spit out powerful chain lightning to the trolls below.

Chimera has the ability to spit acid and lightning at the same time. Facing trolls with excellent self-healing ability, the effect of acid may not be so outstanding, but lightning, an elemental attack with an additional effect of paralysis, is outstanding.

The troll recruited by the blockbuster froze on the spot and was trembling continuously due to the electric shock. The smell of roasted meat filled the battlefield strangely. The battle priests took this opportunity to attack the troll mercilessly.

The large-caliber curved-fire mortars erected in the Shayu Outpost still spray shells at the enemy's formation non-stop. The arcanist troops standing on the high platform are also under the command of the mage captain who is in charge of coordinating, and they jointly cast powerful range magic. .

The Druids of the Claw rushed into the enemy line following the cavalry on both sides like a herd of beasts galloping, using their sharp minions to further tear the troll's battle line.

Toulouse Shading, who was hanging from the back to watch the battle, stared dumbfounded at the battlefield not far away. Not long after the war started, the Sandfury trolls fell into an absolute disadvantage, and the total number of troops accumulated did not give them enough advantages.

Nawaz, who was sitting at the Shayu outpost, commanded well, and all the troops ate away at the formation of the trolls under his dispatch.

"The outcome has been decided."

Nawaz sneered disdainfully and said, "Sure enough, without the help of Loa and the dispatch and command of the Zandalari, this troll clan scattered alone in the desert is completely out of touch with the world, and their understanding of war is still in ancient times. "

"Charge the whole army! Break the troll's battle line in one fell swoop, and drive them back to Zul'Farrak!"

"Oh!!"

The main infantry unit, which has been hiding behind the fortifications and on standby, let out a loud battle cry. They couldn't wait to see the comrades-in-arms of other units swaying freely on the battlefield.

Following the gap opened by the Kodo cavalry, the well-equipped night elf infantry threatened the Sandfury troll in the opposite direction with a well-organized formation. The troll, whose morale was greatly damaged, fell into chaos, and it was difficult to organize a decent counterattack. .

The chief of Toulouse has a pale face, no matter how stupid and arrogant he is, he can understand the current situation. They have already lost the battle.

"Retreat! Back to Zul'Farrak for defense!"

After finally getting the order to retreat, the trolls whose army formation was split by the night elves fled back in a hurry. Relying on the advantage of their natural long legs, the remaining hundreds of thousands of trolls fled back to their city in embarrassment.

On the battlefield full of yellow sand, a large number of corpses were buried in it, and many injured trolls who could not escape could only kneel on the ground and surrender, hoping to save their lives from these ferocious night elves.

Under Nawaz's order, all the trolls who surrendered were taken back to the camp and held there.

Syndra's military leader, Hines, asked in confusion, "General Nawaz, what's the use of keeping these dirty and savage trolls, why not..."

Nawaz shook his head, "This is the Lord Lord's order. He said that these trolls are high-quality coolies after domestication."

Of the 250,000 Sandfury trolls, only about 120,000 fled back to Zul'Farrak, about 30,000 were killed on the battlefield, about 20,000 soldiers were captured by Nawaz, and the rest lost their way and fled into the depths of the desert , I'm afraid it's more bad luck than good luck.

Needless to say, the chief of Toulouse's face was so ugly after losing half of his soldiers in World War I. What's even more desperate is that he can't see any hope of a comeback.

Zul'Farrak's fortifications were very simple, and the city walls were as low as less than two meters. He didn't think these rough walls could stop the night elves with heavy firepower.

Regret gnawed at his heart. If he hadn't asked the night elves to provoke him, it wouldn't have led to today's bitter fruit.

But it was too late to say anything now. Looking back at the frightened old, weak, sick and disabled in the city, Toulouse's eyes were full of despair.

The Sandfury troll may be dead in his generation.

...

Although it was an expected victory, Andrea still laughed happily after receiving the good news from Nawaz.

"Haha! Well done! The Tanaris Desert is ours."

Malfurion smiled and stroked his beard. "After the Sandfury troll is eliminated, Kalimdor has one less threat."

Shandris was also smiling, and she added, "And taking the Tanaris Desert is equivalent to completely opening up the land route to Un'Goro Crater. This lowland jungle independent of the two deserts is finally about to reveal its mystery. the veil."

Andrea also thought about sending air scouts to Un'Goro to explore before, but as soon as they entered the range of the crater, both the hippogryph knight and the raptor druid would be attacked by a large number of flying monsters in groups, so they could only temporarily give up .

The Un'Goro Crater has not belonged to the territory of the night elves since ancient times, including Malfurion, who lacks understanding of this mysterious area.

Andrea knew what was attacking the air scouts, but he couldn't say it now.

Pterodactyl, a creature unique to Un'Goro Crater.

As one of the two major experimental sites of the Titan Guardians in Azeroth, a large number of novel species that are not seen in the outside world live in this lowland jungle that is like spring all the year round, and most of them are dinosaurs.

Of course, dinosaurs are just Andrea, a traveler, calling the experimental creatures in the Un'Goro crater, and there is no such term in Azeroth yet.

"Titan's proving ground..."
