Chapter 233 Battle of Astrana

The night elves are ready, and the army of men and horses is ready to move.

The first wave of attacks were thousands of 'Centaur Forerunners', which were low-level wild monsters at level 12-14 and the most common low-level combat unit in the Centaur tribe.

There was no decent armor, and the weapons were only simple battle axes. A group of thirty-five people swarmed up in a chaotic manner, charging towards Astrana from all directions.

It is more accurate to say that it is a death attack than a charge. Astlanna is surrounded by rivers on two sides, and the other two sides are raised highlands covered with towering trees and densely populated with archers.

Although there is no city wall in the strict sense, its defensive power is no weaker than that of an ordinary city.

This blind charge has almost no chance of winning.

What awaited them was a dense rain of arrows. The number of archers in the Night Elf Sentinels was more than 70%, and the arrows fired were truly as fierce as a violent storm.

These centaur forerunners, who lacked armor and had low health, were wiped out almost instantly, leaving corpses covered with arrows all over the place.

But Emperor Shenwu didn't care about these casualties. These low-level wild monsters were originally used as cannon fodder, and they were all farmed by the system for free. No matter how many people died, he didn't feel bad, and if they died, they could free up some people for breeding. More advanced units will die in vain.

A horn sounded, and thousands of centaur forerunners immediately rushed out of the position, followed by thousands of centaur hunters, shooting sparse arrows at the night elves on the other side of the river.

This attack has almost no effect, and the centaur hunter's level is also not high, only level 15-16, which is only slightly stronger than cannon fodder.

Sure enough, these attacking troops immediately encountered a fierce counterattack again. The night elf archers, who were condescending and had the advantage of shooting range, easily shot and killed these centaur hunters on the river bank.

In just ten minutes, thousands of centaur corpses had been dropped around the city. Finally, the retreat horn sounded, and the remaining centaur troops retreated as if they had been granted amnesty.

The night elves in the city suddenly burst into cheers.

Cute rabbit with twin tails (General Sentinel): "Haha, these savage beasts are really vulnerable."

Tyrande shook his head, with a solemn look on his face, "No, it's not that simple. They are testing our troop deployment."

really--

"Your Majesty, the enemy's troop deployment has been tested." Next to the map, several centaur Khans quickly sorted out the layout of the night elves. Small flags representing corpses were inserted all over the map. It can be clearly seen that the north and south There are obviously fewer corpses at the entrance to the side city.

"The east and west sides of Astrana have the most intense firepower. Due to the terrain, a large number of troops cannot be deployed in the north. However, in the open area near the river mouth in the south, the enemy's strength does not seem to be secretive, and the density of arrows is obviously lower. , there are many centaur hunters who have escaped, this may be our breakthrough point, but maybe..."

"Maybe it's a trap, right?" Another Centaur Khan said.

The third Centaur Khan, an assistant from the Human Resources Department, also agreed with this guess, "Yes, if the other party really prepared a pocket formation as Lin Meng said, it must be here."

Emperor Shenwu smiled and said, "No need to guess, it's a trap, but it doesn't matter. Now that we have the black dragon to help us fight, we are not afraid of traps. Since the other side has left a gap for us, let's take advantage of it.

Concentrate elite troops to attack this gap. As long as this gap is opened, my army can rush in and completely destroy the city with an absolute numerical advantage.

As long as the night elves' army in Astrana is completely wiped out, they will not be able to gather a second army of this size in a short period of time. We can get at least half a month of strong strength, half a month. , maybe we can take down the World Tree.

At the very least, Felwood can be captured. "

Emperor Shenwu was already quite aware of this war.

The decision was immediately made.

"Let all the tribes send out their main forces, archers, and catapults to launch feint attacks around them to attract the enemy's attention. The offensive must be fierce. Then when I blow the second horn, the Iron Horse clan will launch a strong attack from the front to break the gap.

Go, Mother Earth will protect you! "

"For the Empire!"

"For the Empire!"

After receiving the order, several centaur Khans immediately went to their respective clans to prepare to command the attack.

Soon, when the first horn sounded, each tribe immediately sent out their troops at the same time.

More than 100,000 centaur archers (level 22 wild monsters), centaur wind archers (level 35 wild monsters), and centaur wind hunters (level 38 wild monsters) rushed to the border of Astrana, They shot arrows one after another while running quickly, like mounted archers.

The night elves immediately retaliated. Arrows from both sides came and went, filling the sky, almost blocking the sun. The density of the arrows was so high that they often collided in mid-air.

Night elves and centaurs are both races that are good at shooting, but centaurs are mounted shooters, while night elves are mounted shooters. The advantage of mounted shooters is that they can dodge while shooting, while mounted shooters have a longer range and stronger weapons. At first glance, the power seems to be half-matched, but in such a large-scale battle, it is almost impossible to escape. The rain of arrows in the sky will be shot no matter where you go. This kind of standing firefighting method is obviously different from the night elves. More advantageous.

However, the centaur also has its own magic. Once it is hit by too many arrows and its health drops below half while running, the centaur will immediately run backwards and retreat, quickly leaving the fighting area. There are already a large number of wild boars in various camps. Human witch doctors are planting healing totems all over the ground to restore blood to the wounded.

Teams of centaur archers rushed up to surround the Mercedes-Benz, riding and shooting. When the blood was left in the shot, they immediately pulled back to restore the blood. When the blood was full, they rushed forward to shoot arrows again.

Of course, the night elves also have their own healing methods. The priests of Elune can use various divine spells to heal, and the druids can directly release the Rain of Tranquility.

The two sides fought fiercely, but there were not many casualties.

Immediately afterwards, the centaurs pushed up the catapults one after another, and the huge burning stones were thrown crazily towards the city, which made the night elves suddenly feel huge pressure.

The night elves immediately retaliated with the catapult. The huge flying blades projected easily tore apart the centaur's body and destroyed the catapult.

The two sides were going back and forth, refusing to give in to each other, and there were more and more night elves on the city's outer defense line.

Seeing that there were more and more night elves around, the enemies had been mobilized in large numbers, and the second horn finally sounded.

The Iron Horse Clan is one of the core clans of the Centaur Empire. At this time, it sent more than 3,000 Centaur Armored Marauders (Level 44 wild monsters), arranged in a neat formation, and launched a charge towards the mouth of the river. Behind them are a large number of centaur blast shooters, and the centaur witch is responsible for covering.

The sound of horse hooves was deafening and the earth was shaking. Each of these centaur leather marauders was wearing heavy armor and holding heavy battle axes. Thousands of centaurs charged together. Their power was quite similar to the charge of human heavy knights.

Seeing that the enemy finally sent out elite troops, Tyrande breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that his plan was successful, and the enemy was indeed fooled.

These armored marauders wearing iron armor are enhanced versions of centaur marauders, high-level wild monsters up to level 44, with three powerful skills: iron armor defense, brutal charge, and trample attack.

Facing the sparse rain of arrows, the armored marauders, who had the specialty of iron armor defense, rushed in without fear.

A single charge defeated the night elf troops at the mouth of the river. They rushed directly into the city without stopping. More centaur marauders poured in, seeming to use this gap to achieve a breakthrough.

However, when the troops rushed into the river mouth, they found a sparse and strange forest waiting for them.

The trees in this forest are extremely thick. Although they are not many in number, they clearly form a line of defense. Behind this thin line of defense are thousands of night elf shooters who are waiting in full formation.

Although it felt weird, the momentum of the charge showed no intention of stopping. To stop the Centaur's charge, the forest also needed a certain density.

kill! The leading warlord roared and rushed over without hesitation.

However, suddenly, those giant trees suddenly started to move. They pulled out their roots from the ground and grew limbs. Their huge bodies moved like human figures, taking slow but firm steps, forming a neat formation. The front began to surround and close up from all directions.

The Ancient War Tree is a war weapon with a level up to level 60. It has a health value of more than 10,000 and has the "crushing strike" skill. It has a certain probability of killing medium-sized units with a health value of less than 1,000 in one hit.

The only drawback is the slow speed, but at this time, lined up in a row, it is simply a moving wall.

The centaur warlord charged, but was stopped by an ancient war tree.

Savage charge! boom! This blow hit the ancient war tree firmly. The tree trembled, but did not retreat at all. Instead, the centaur warlord was shocked and retreated continuously.

Even the BOSS must respect human rights. In the face of "war weapons", charging is impossible to be effective.

This centaur warlord is pretty good. Those centaur armored marauders are not even BOSS. They can't rush past them just because they're sitting on top of a big tree.

The night elf archers took the opportunity to fire wildly from behind.

The centaurs tried to bypass the ancient war trees again, but the narrow space between the ancient war trees simply did not allow them to pass in large numbers. They were often slapped into pulp by the ancient war trees as soon as they approached.

Occasionally, a few fish that slipped through the net rushed towards the obstruction of the big tree, and they would immediately encounter the focused fire of a large number of archers, shooting hedgehogs within range.

Seeing that more and more Centaur troops were blocked in the river mouth plain, the night elves' arrows were all fired in this direction, with a complete trap-like effect.

Murphy took one look and knew it was time to take action.

He was not prepared to be lazy and hide his clumsiness. With the four guardian dragons participating in the battle, he had no room to hold back.

Although he wanted to prevent Emperor Shenwu from unifying Kalimdor, he had no grudge against Emperor Shenwu and couldn't deceive the other party too much, so he still had to take action.

Roar! Following Murphy's dragon roar, the black dragon army in the sky immediately started to move.

Tyrande was immediately shocked.

"Damn it, those black dragons! The Horned Eagle Knights attack, don't let those black dragons ruin our actions."

Hundreds of hippogryph knights and thousands of armed hippogryphs immediately flew out of their nests and attacked the black dragon.

Hippogryphs may not look like extraordinary creatures, but their aerial combat capabilities are not weaker than those of ordinary black young dragons. Although they do not have dragon breath, their sharp sword-like pecks are extremely deadly weapons, and their blade-like claws are even more powerful. It can easily tear the young dragon's ungrown skin.

Even for those adult dragons, these hippogryphs still pose a certain threat. The scales of the adult dragons are too hard and the blood volume is too thick. It is difficult for a hippogryph to produce much output even by grabbing and pecking.

But once a group of people attacks them, even an adult dragon will be unable to withstand it.

Seeing the black dragon being entangled by the hippogryph, Murphy hurriedly ordered.

Neltharion (King of the Black Dragon): "Nefarian, Agnes, use dragon language magic to knock these things down."

Nefarian (Black Dragon Prince): "Yes father."

Agnes (Black Dragon Lord): "As you command, Lord Neltharion!"

Dragon language magic——Burning Cloud Technique!

Dragon language magic - thunder storm!

In the sky, fire clouds filled the air, thunder raged, and the powerful dragon language magic immediately caused those hippogryphs to be blasted down in pieces.

Suddenly a huge hole was blasted out of the chaotic sky.

Neltharion (King of the Black Dragon): "Morpheus, come and lead the attack and destroy those ancient trees of war."

Morpheus (ancient black dragon): "I obey Lord Neltharion."

Morpheus did not dare to refuse. With a roar, dozens of young black dragons immediately followed him and swooped down from the opened gap.

"Quick, stop those black dragons!"

The night elves on the ground fired arrows into the air, but the black dragon's powerful defense allowed them to withstand the rain of arrows and attack the ground.

Ancient dragon flames!

Shadow Flame!

Black Dragon Flame!

Hula, streaks of dragon flames swept across the battlefield, spitting wildly at the ancient war trees below.

Morpheus is absolutely professional when it comes to breathing fire.

Every breath of dragon's breath can burn an ancient war tree into a huge torch.

These seemingly indestructible ancient war trees have frighteningly low fire resistance and are slow to move. They absorb all damage from the dragon's breath and burn into huge torches one after another, turning into ashes under the burning of the dragon's flames.

Success! The centaur who had been shot badly before let out bursts of cheers and charged towards the night elves who had lost their cover behind the ancient war tree with all their strength.

The centaur's sharp ax cut through the night elf's limbs, and the iron hoof trampled the night elf's body. These elf archers were completely unable to withstand the frontal impact of the armored centaur. Some were trampled under their feet, some were knocked away, and some were hacked to death with sharp axes, and the bloody killing completely drove these centaurs into a frenzy.

Tyrande looked at it with angry eyes.

"Let the sisters retreat, Chief Timbermaw, and bring your furbolg warriors up!"

Thousands of furbolgs fought under the leadership of Chief Timbermaw.

The centaur's charge was finally stopped.

The two sides began to fight hand-to-hand in this narrow area of ​​less than 500 meters.

Furbolgs are standard 'monster infantry' and are best at this kind of close combat. The battle was at a stalemate for a while.

But Emperor Shenwu immediately sent new reinforcements.
