Chapter 575: The Legend of Demon God Duke
Inside the stone pillar is the portal itself, emitting green and black light, filled with energy.
For mages such as Antonidas, it is still a large vortex, exuding energy and some strange feelings in a large space.
"I can feel the door extending, deeply embedded in the ground, devouring the energy in the underground magic net." Antonidas reminded Lothar.
More than ten thousand orcs had gathered at the gate, but they didn't seem to know what to do.
They are no longer based on the clan as a unit, and perhaps the successive defeats and the capture of the great chief made them lose mutual trust. They no longer trust each other, but have become a family or a hunting party.
This is not an army, but a whole bunch of squads.
"We don't have much supplies, so we are ready to attack! Eliminate them with all our strength." Without hesitation, Lothar planned to directly press down on the entire front army and eliminate these orcs simply and violently.
"Yo, Anduin, wait." Duke suddenly stopped Lothar.
"Huh?" As a commander in chief, it would be embarrassing to have his decision stopped by his subordinates. Duke is different, Duke and Lothar are absolutely life-threatening friendship. Lothar didn't mind.
Duke walked to Lothar's side and whispered quietly: "Did you find out, Lordaeron is very embarrassing this time."
"So what?" Lothar is a relatively pure warrior, and he is not very good at such political things.
"Our supply has decreased. It's not because the supply line is too long." The people of Lordaeron reduced the supply to the front line on the grounds that the supply line was too long. In the world, no other country is farther than him except Quel'Thalas, the furthest.
In the final analysis, Terenas was in a bad mood because he couldn't get any benefits and lost face.
It turned out to be an army attacking the Dark Portal, and much of the supply was borne by the devastated Stormwind Kingdom. Even after regaining the territory of the Stormwind Kingdom, Duke has been building roads with cement for the first time, building a road starting from Stormwind City and running through the entire Elwynn Forest from west to east, but there are still many problems.
Because Redridge Mountain is newly recovered, the rest of the road from Redridge Mountain through the Swamp of Sorrows to the Blasted Lands is still deadly. Red Ridge Mountain is mountainous and narrow. The Swamp of Sorrows is a bad road. If you are not careful, the wheels will get stuck in the soil and you will not be able to get out.
Lothar frowned, savoring Duke's words.
"What do you think is the best way to play?"
"Didn't the Duke of Chamas mention it while chatting a while ago, why didn't some orcs go to mine?"
As we all know, the Duke of Chamas is the confidant of King Terenas, and his opinion is actually what Terenas meant. King Terenas was too embarrassed to say it, so he left it all to him to test the tone of the countries.
In this life, history has changed a lot.
In the original history, on the one hand, Lordaeron did not have such a blood loss, and the alliance captured many orcs captives. In order to drag down other allies, Terenas proposed to set up orc prisons in various countries.
Due to Duke's meddling, Lordaeron suffered a huge loss in disguise. It's great to try to fight for military exploits, but the loss of population in turn makes Terenas, a big dog, feel heartbroken.
In the Battle of Blackrock Spire, more than 60,000 Lordaeronians were killed or injured. It is foreseeable that in the next few years, many fields in the territory will be uncultivated, not to mention the already high-risk miners and other industries.
Terenas had a bad idea, should some orcs be miners?
If it doesn't work, bring more orc captives and parade them around Lordaeron, it will also calm the public anger!
Lothar is a noble person, he dislikes the slaughter of captives and women, even the orcs who committed the crime of massacre. Lothar had no resistance to pulling orcs to become miners.
And it has been proven time and time again that Duke is far more forward-looking than he and Ryan. Lothar smiled: "Then, are you coming to this battle?"
"I'll do it!" After Duke agreed, he waved to Magni: "Magni, work!"
"Okay!" Seeing Magni rushing to Duke with his dwarf-specific big butt, the big bosses of the alliance were a little speechless.
It is said that the commander of the alliance has the right to order those who are written as generals and pronounced as kings. That is only on paper, you are a majestic king, and you are so obedient, really...
Magni doesn't care about that much.
The esoteric art of blitzkrieg taught by Duke made the dwarf look great in the decisive battle.
Don't you humans always boast that humans are the main force of the alliance?
Who launched a surprise attack in the last battle and turned the tide?
Dwarf Tank Legion.
Who killed the most orcs?
Or Dwarf Tank Legion!
Seeing those human turkeys looking enviously at the Lightning Banner of the Tank Corps, Magni felt a sense of pride. The only thing that frustrates him is that when Mao asks Duke to draw the battle flag of the Tank Corps, the pattern is a... sloth with a lightning symbol behind it?
"Aren't dwarves always ridiculed for their short legs? Now as long as you drive a tank and overtake a car with the recognized slow sloth flag, who would dare to laugh at your slow running?"
The truth is this truth, I always feel a little not powerful enough.
Forget it, never mind. In the Battle of Blackrock Spire, the [Lightning] tank army killed more than 150,000 orcs. Such a feat is enough for bragging dwarves to brag about in taverns for thousands of years.
Then, with a bang from the cannon, the tank made its debut.
Sitting on the top of the tank at the front, Duke hugged Niu with his left and right hands, projecting a huge blue phantom storm flag on the tank.
The same Storm Banner of Grand Duke Marcus.
It was planted on Stormwind City once, causing hundreds of thousands of orcs to die in flames.
It was once planted in Nanhai Town, trapping 100,000 orcs to death on the beach.
It used to be inserted outside Silver Moon City, preventing hundreds of thousands of tribes from moving forward.
It also suspended above the group of steam tanks during the Battle of Scorching Canyon, witnessing the death of hundreds of thousands of orcs in that devastating bombardment.
It is the nightmare of the tribe, and it symbolizes the death of mankind-Duke Marcus!
Just the appearance of this flag made tens of thousands of orcs unable to control their bodies, trembling like chaff.
Duke's voice was magically amplified and resounded throughout the battlefield. It was a broadcast in Orc language.
"I am Duke Marcus, the Grand Duke of Stormwind. I declare for the last time that all orcs surrender and not be killed. Otherwise... cry! Shout! Then die—hahahaha!"
The domineering and evil declaration is full of arrogance and terror. Without Duke's performance, this is just the barking of a mad dog. But this is the manifesto of that Duke Marcus!
One, two... countless.
The orcs threw down their weapons with a bang, knelt down towards Duke like a pilgrimage, lowered their proud heads that they thought they would never lower, and prostrated themselves on the ground.
Many years later, on that day every year, countless old orcs still recalled the horror of being dominated by the Great Demon God Duke, and the shame of being helpless in front of the Demon God Duke.
