Crossing the Other World: My Warcraft System

Chapter 178 The army is dispatched

The next day, in the meeting hall of Galin Port.

"Today, Omar is appointed as the commander of the First Legion of the Crusaders under Duke Tokaral!"

"Henry Mareb is the commander of the Second Legion!"

"Fadil Dabire is the commander of the Third Legion!"

Then, Flar and Kimir Garin announced that they were the commanders of the Fourth and Fifth Legions. After saying that, Garin paused and dragged his words a little.

Below, Varokal was anxious, his eyes full of worry, his face written with "Where is this for me? Where is this for me?"

Seeing that Varokal was about to feel aggrieved, Garin continued to announce.

"Appoint Varokar to lead the First Knights of the Crusades!"

Garin was still partial to Varokar. Now Garin had only more than 3,000 high-level knights. After excluding the 400 knights equipped with the Gale Legion, Garin directly gave the remaining 3,000 people to Varokar to lead.

Although the First Knights were not as numerous as Omar's legion of 8,000 men, they were by no means inferior in combat effectiveness. Even on the plains of the Barrens, the cavalry's combat effectiveness was stronger than that of the infantry.

Moreover, the three thousand high-level knights crushed the regular armies of various human countries in terms of rank. Only their most elite troops could be compared to them, such as the Highland Knights of Stromgarde and the Iron Horse Brotherhood of Stormwind.

However, Omar and his companions were not jealous. After all, their talent and experience in commanding cavalry battles were not as good as Varokar's.

Of the six legions coming this time, Garin plans to dispatch five, and another legion will be named the Second Auxiliary Legion, which will garrison the Friendship Fortress and replace the Gale Legion, and will be commanded by Garin himself.

Also participating in the battle are Gandalf's Legion of Fury and the Legion of Stone. Aragorn is currently presiding over a new round of Paladin awakening ceremonies in the White City. He will come over to lead the Legion of Stone when the war is about to begin in a few days, and will be stationed in the passage of Stonetalon Mountain to prevent sneak attacks by the Centaurs.

Eight regular infantry legions plus a knightly regiment account for more than half of Garin's total force, and are all the forces required by the Crusade to clear the Barrens. This can be described as the largest success since the construction of the Heart of Origin base.

Dezco also arrived at the camp of the Sixth Legion in the afternoon. According to him, the one who set out from Thunder Bluff with him was one of the Tauren advisors, the legendary shaman Magatha. She would lead a main force of Tauren to Stoneclaw Trail to build a checkpoint.

Almost. Garin had guessed that it should be her. As a representative of the hawk faction among the Tauren, she would not miss the military action against the centaurs. Moreover, there are two camps of the Terrortotem clan in the Stonetalon Mountains. With her presence, she can better coordinate with the army.

Regarding the arrival of the Tauren, the six newly promoted legion commanders were full of curiosity about this strong and tall race. After all, one of the Tauren's arms was thicker than the waist of Fadil, the thinnest among them.

Garin appeared as the messenger of Anshe and had an extraordinary status in the Dawn Chaser clan. He was respected by many Tauren. Dezco went to Garin Port specifically to learn the common language from the human merchants there. Therefore, communication between Dezco and everyone was not a problem. They were all young bulls and young people, and they quickly became familiar with each other.

Everything is ready, we can break camp and set off.

When the six legions filed out, the camp became empty, and the hundreds of farmers who had been prepared in the base were remotely commanded by Garin to come here to build a base. This is a seaside plain with an open terrain, which can be easily landed by hostile forces and become a bridgehead for attacking the Northern Barrens.

When Garin was selecting the site for Garin Port, he hesitated for a long time between this place and the original site of Ratchet City. In the end, he chose to build his city on the original site of Ratchet City, which was closer to the mouth of the Nushui River.

Now that Garin Port is on track and the Northern Expedition in the Barrens is about to begin, Garin is planning to build a fortress here first to block the coastline of the northern Barrens.

The name of the fortress has been decided.

Six Armies Castle!

………………

The army marched westward, heading for the ancient road in the Barren Land. This road originated before the Ancient War. Because it was the main road in the Golden Land, it was named the Golden Road by the upper elves.

The Golden Road is a north-south avenue that runs through the barren lands of the north and south. When Garin first started playing the game, he thought it was called the Golden Road because the road was well connected and caravans came and went, bringing wealth, just like the Silk Road and the Ancient Tea-Horse Road of our great China.

Were all the upper elves so sentimental and artistic back then? If your name is Golden Road Garin, you won't have such wild thoughts, okay?

After entering the Golden Road, we saw a group of people waiting there from afar: the Gale Legion!

The Gale Legion came here under Garin's arrangement and followed Garin and his men to participate in the battle, while the Second Auxiliary Legion went to the Friendship Fortress to garrison.

As for why a new legion was used to replace the Storm Legion garrisoning Friendship Fortress instead of directly using the new legion to participate in the war, it was because the Storm Legion had experienced battles of all sizes over the past year, including suppressing the rebellion of the Thornback Boarmen and repelling harassment from the Steelmantle tribe in the north.

If the legion also has experience, then the Gale Legion is at least a first-level legion, while the Second Auxiliary Legion can only be regarded as a blank slate legion.

Instead of training a blank legion, Garin would rather pull out the Gale Legion, which has already gone through many battles and has more experienced soldiers, to continue to gain experience and strive to increase the strength of several main combat legions.

As time goes by, there will be more and more base soldiers under Garin's command, and more legions can be formed. Garin thinks that these soldiers can be divided into main combat legions, garrison legions, and reserve forces.

It goes without saying that the main combat legions are the five earliest legions formed, while Omar and his five legions are now still second-line legions. It is hoped that one day they will be able to rely on their own abilities to build an elite division and leave their own names in the history of Azeroth.

The garrison corps is the First Auxiliary Corps stationed in Hongyun Terrace and the Second Auxiliary Corps preparing to go to Friendship Fortress. As more and more bases are built, the number of auxiliary corps will also increase.

The reserve forces are also substitutes for several main combat corps. When they lose men in battle, they will be replenished from the reserve forces.

After the Gale Legion entered the main force, the team continued to advance.

Their first destination was Sweetwater Oasis, one of the three major oases in the Barrens.

Sweetwater Oasis is located southwest of Thorn Ridge. The distance between the two places can be reached by galloping horses in one day. Garin chose this oasis with abundant water resources as the legion's first supply point.

The Wogul ogres that Garin conquered settled down in the Sweetwater Oasis. They lived a very good life. Every day, many wild animals came to the Sweetwater Oasis to drink water, and the arrival of the ogres made them the overlords here.

They are larger and stronger than wild animals and have no natural enemies. When they are hungry, they just wait near the lake in the oasis and hunt giraffes, savannah lions, chocobos and velociraptors that come here to replenish water. Sometimes even some scattered wild boars are on their menu. In just one year, their numbers have tripled.

In the night sky of the barren land, the moon appeared bright and cold. Garin and his men had already set up camp ten miles south of the Sweet Water Oasis.

Turok, the chieftain of the Vogul ogres, and his wife from the Blackrock clan came to Garin's camp carrying a little orc. The four ogres behind them were carrying several prey, including thunder lizards, prairie zebras, prairie lions, and velociraptors.

Are you here to pay tribute? Why do you feel like you are here to visit me, bringing so many gifts?

Boom!

This is the sound of an ogre carrying a huge thunder lizard dropping its prey.

Thunder Lizards are animals of the same size as Kodos. These animals are aggressive by nature and are particularly aggressive when in groups. To avoid trouble, it is best to keep a safe distance from them. Otherwise, even if you don't provoke them, they will cast a lightning spell on you!

Thunder lizards are at the top of the food chain among the wild animals in this area. They are huge in size, have great strength, and can spit lightning from their mouths. They look similar to kodo beasts, but unlike the herbivorous kodo beasts, they are omnivores that eat everything. When they travel in groups, they are the overlords of this wasteland, and even wild boar people dare not provoke them easily.

Garin looked at them and had an idea in his mind. Both Thunder Lizards and Kodo Beasts are similar to rhinos on Blue Star, except that they have a row of sword-back ridges on their backs, similar to those of Stegosaurus. Kodo Beasts can be tamed by Minotaur, so there is no reason why Thunder Lizards cannot be tamed.

The legion of King Jinli of the Hill is called the Thunder Legion. If they are equipped with a group of Thunder Lizards as mounts, when they charge at the enemy, the mounts under their crotch will breathe out lightning, which combined with the lethality of the knights can definitely catch the enemy off guard.

He would give it a try once he had taken control of the Barrens. If successful, Garin remembered that there was a place called Thunder Mountains in the Eastern Barrens, where a large number of Thunder Lizards lived. These were the sources of Garin's mounts.

After sending the ogre couple away, the paladins who served as Garin's personal guards began to pack up the prey and prepare for a barbecue party.

Garin asked Dezko: "Dezko, have you Shuharu ever tried to tame the thunder lizard?"

If you want to solve a problem, the first thing you should do is to consult an expert. The Tauren are undoubtedly the best at this.

Dezco touched his horns and lost himself in memories.

"A long time ago, the druids of the Rune Totem clan tried to communicate with these wild animals and tried to tame them into the main transportation force of Shuhalu. Unfortunately, these creatures have violent tempers. After using druid spells to pacify them, the pacification spells could not last long due to the thunder power contained in their bodies. Later, we discovered the kodo beast, a relative of the Thunder Lizard, and the Rune Totem druids gave up the plan to tame the Thunder Lizard!"

"That means it is very difficult to tame!" After hearing this, Jialin fell into deep thought.

Dezco was also recalling the Minotaur literature: "Thunder lizards have powerful lightning power in their bodies. The lightning element causes them to have violent tempers. This is an elemental problem! Perhaps we can ask the shamans to use the elemental spirits to ask if there is a way to solve it."

Shamans are servants of elements and can mobilize the elements of earth, fire, thunder, air and water. Given their understanding of the element of lightning, this is indeed a method.

However, there is another profession that may be possible, the Mage. Unlike the Shaman who serves the elements, the Mage enslaves the elements. Garin feels that this profession is more domineering, after all, it is Blizzard's own son.

Great, I found another research topic for Gandalf.

"I think I know. I will ask Gandalf to start studying the Thunder Lizard."

"Garlin, do you want to train them as mounts? But it's too difficult. Why don't you try Kodo? We can teach you how to raise Kodo!"

Dezco was puzzled. Kodo beasts had been tamed and raised by Minotaur for hundreds of years. Minotaur were experts in this area, and Kodo beasts had gentle personalities, much better than Thunder Lizards.

Ha, only children do multiple-choice questions, I want them all. When the time comes, the Kodo Knights on the left will rush out, the Thunder Knights on the right will rush out, and the Paladins in the middle will lead the high-level knights to rush forward. Even if it is a demon army, Garin dares to charge.

"Thunder lizards are so cool. Just think about it. The knights rush forward, and the enemy's attention is all on the knights. Then the thunder lizards spit out lightning from their mouths, catching them off guard!"

Garin's yearning tone left Dezco speechless. What kind of logic was this? What's wrong with spitting thunder and lightning? He could never compare to the docile and cute Kodo beast. Dezco speechlessly touched his mount that was lying beside him and warming itself by the fire. This was the Kodo beast his father gave him after he became an adult, and it had been with him for many years.

He firmly believed that Kodo was Shuhalu's best companion and mount.

At this time Omar and his men came to discuss matters. This was an order issued by Garin. After their respective legions had set up camp, they would gather here at Garin to discuss the battle plan.

When Dezco saw the human friends he had just met coming, he temporarily stopped thinking about the problems of the Thunder Lizard and the Kodo.

At Garin's signal, an Anbu member who had been behind him stepped forward and prepared to report the intelligence he had discovered.

"According to the intelligence from the Anbu, the Steelmant tribe is a huge clan of wild boars. Their influence in the Eastern Barrens is very large, covering the northwest region of the Eastern Barrens. And the target of our attack this time, Thorn Ridge, is just a part of their tribe that was diverted from the Eastern Barrens!"

When Garin heard this information before, he was also shocked. The Anbu estimated that there were at least 200,000 wild boar people in the Eastern Barrens, and there were nearly 100,000 wild boar people in Thorn Ridge. This was too many.

However, there is some good news: the Steelhair Tribe is not the only one that dominates the Eastern Barrens.

"According to intelligence, the Boarmen headquarters in the Eastern Barrens also has its own troubles, and their main focus has been diverted by other hostile forces. However, we cannot rule out the possibility of sending troops to support them. The Anbu's suggestion is to block the Wrathful River and prevent the connection between Thorn Ridge and the Eastern Barrens!"
