In fact, the invasion of Khaz Modan by the orcs had already happened.

After capturing Stormwind City, the new warchief of the orc tribe, Orgrim Doomhammer, was disappointed to find that the human fleeing was not due to a complete defeat, but because he knew his strength was not enough to compete with the current tribe, so he took the initiative. retreat.

Before retreating, they took a hard time and concentrated all the materials, grains and grass that could not be transported in Stormwind City and burned them all.

Different from ordinary orcs, Orgrim is a strategic and visionary chief. He dreams of leading the orcs to return to the old traditions and ways of doing things, no longer be poisoned by fel magic, and get rid of Gul'dan completely. And black hands.

However, such a grand dream cannot be realized overnight. First, Orgrim must first help the Horde gain a foothold in Azeroth.

He knew that in order to achieve this, it was not enough to capture Stormwind. After that tragic battle to seize the city, other human kingdoms would never coexist peacefully with the tribe. According to the scout's return, the leaders of the human kingdoms are now discussing countermeasures in the northern land called Lordaeron.

Orgrim knew that the Horde could not wait passively anyway. If they are content to hold on to the occupied territories and allow mankind to assemble and prepare for war, humans will soon assemble a large army to kill to the south. In this way, with the current productivity of the orcs and the occupied land, they are completely incomparable with human countries. Eventually, it will be dragged down by humans and fall into failure.

The only way for the tribe to break the situation is to preemptively attack the enemy before the enemy is ready.

But in this way, a new problem emerged: the orcs’ current food and grass were only for daily use, and could not support the entire army’s expedition. The ordnance and materials were almost exhausted by the war with the Stormwind Kingdom. At the same time, Della The reinforcements from Draenor from the Nobel side are also pitiful, and the warchief must find another way to strengthen the tribe.

However, Stormwind Kingdom’s actions of fortifying the walls and clearing the wild made the orcs unable to find enough supplies in the ruins of this kingdom. In desperation, Orgrim could only find other ways. Khaz Modan’s Bronzebeard dwarves belonged to them. Target.

According to the investigation of the orc scouts, Khaz Modan of the dwarves has everything the orcs need: Loch Modan with abundant water is a food production place and granary for the dwarves, and Khaz Modan is full of dwarf forging furnaces, and the mountains are rich in minerals. , Unlimited access.

Therefore, the warchief finally decided to seize the dwarf's territory before officially taking action against Lordaeron and use the resources there to replenish the weapons.

So, taking advantage of a violent snowstorm, the Horde slammed to Khaz Modan.

However, the dwarves were already prepared, and they sent a demolition team to dig a tunnel in the mountain, hindering the orcs from marching. At the same time, the dwarves asked their ancient ally, the dwarf, to help.

The two major races concentrated their forces and set up defensive strongholds throughout Khaz Modan.

But even so, the dwarves and gnomes still cannot match the orc army.

With the power of the winter wind and snow, the tribe swept through Khaz Modan, and countless dwarves and gnomes died tragically under the bloodthirsty blades of the orcs. The small settlements, outposts and weapon depots scattered on the icy ground all fell into the hands of the tribe.

Khaz Modan's defenders were beaten by the Horde and retreated hurriedly. The dwarves fled to the main city of Gnomeregan, and the dwarves retreated to their base camp, Ironforge.

According to Orgrim’s idea, if the Horde wanted to abandon the control of Gul'dan and Fel Energy, it was necessary to overthrow the rule of the Shadow Council. When he took office as the warchief, while Gul'dan was unconscious, he did the same. made.

However, after that, he discovered that even if the Shadow Council did not exist, the orcs who had lost their original shamanism would not be able to reappear enough shamans. In this way, the orcs would lose the help of the caster on the battlefield and face Human mages inevitably fall into a disadvantage.

In the end, when Gul'dan awakened again, Orgrim had to compromise slightly with the warlock. They reached an agreement: Orgrim would no longer pursue the fault of the Shadow Council, and the Shadow Council would no longer intervene in the tribe’s power. At the same time, the Shadow Council is also responsible for dealing with enemy spellcasters and extraordinary powers on the battlefield-of course, evil powers cannot be used.

For this, Gul'dan broke his brain, but soon he thought of another dark power.

Gul'dan collected the corpses of the human knights who died on the battlefield-defiled the corpses of the orcs would anger the tribe-and then transformed these corpses into powerful necromancers through **** rituals.

They are called death knights.

These dark soldiers are the most successful works of warlocks. They neither need to eat nor rest. The death knight can summon the energy of the undead to absorb the life of the enemy, and even resurrect the dead so that they can continue to charge on the battlefield.

The leader of these death knights is called Talon Gorefiend.

After gradual improvement, Gul'dan created more and more death knights. When Orgrim saw all this, he couldn't help feeling horrified. However, although the warchief was unacceptable, he could not deny the potential of the death knight. They are not using fel energy, but another branch of magic, which can greatly hit the enemy without damaging the land under their feet.

These death knights played a huge role in the attack on Khaz Modan. They were not afraid of the cold, not afraid of guns, and regarded natural danger as nothing. The ability to resurrect corpses gave the dwarves a deep impression. This information was also very fast. Was sent to Anduin Lothar's hands.

When Ye Ting knew all this, he quickly understood the truth.

"You mean... they are undead created by necromantic magic." After hearing Ye Ting's explanation, Lothar couldn't help but frowned, "For our soldiers, this is indeed a big trouble."

For a long time, the undead only existed in the magic experiments of the necromancers, never appeared in the eyes of the public, and ordinary human soldiers have never faced such an enemy.

If they find that they are fighting some corpses, these corpses are likely to be their former comrades-in-arms, then this will be a huge blow to their morale.

"Since the opponent has the death knight, the appearance of the paladin is even more meaningful to us," Ye Ting smiled indifferently, "So, let's trust Archbishop Fao... professional things must be professional. People to deal with it, don’t you?"

"What you said makes sense," Ye Ting's comfort made Lothar's mood a lot better. "However, we have to hurry up here. I think we should first gather an army and be killed by the orcs in Khaz Modan. Before the fall, if the orcs completely control the mines and foundries of the dwarves, we will be in great trouble."

Item 0468

Facts proved that Lothar's worries were unnecessary.

Although the orcs' attack on Khaz Modan was like a broken sword, when the dwarves and gnomes all retreated to the main city, the form was reversed.

Orgrim knew that the dwarves of the second race were more powerful, so Doomhammer commanded the army to attack Ironforge with all its strength.

Unexpectedly, this main city was not as easy to succeed as other places in Khaz Modan. Almost all the residents in the city took up arms and resisted desperately. The dwarves knew that if they were lost in this battle, they would suffer the doom of annihilation, and would rather die in a glorious battle than bow down.

In addition, the main city is completely located in the mountains. In order to build it, the ancestors of the dwarves almost hollowed out a large mountain. The connection between the entire city and the outside world is only a tall and heavy gate. With the help of this dangerous terrain, even if the tribe army attacked fiercely like a city-breaking mallet, it was still unable to attack for a long time.

As the defenders of the city, the dwarves each had one enemy ten, and the orcs suffered heavy casualties. Seeing this, Doomhammer had no choice but to withdraw its troops.

After all, Ironforge was not his main goal, and he didn't need to expend a lot of troops here. Now that Khaz Modan and the rich mineral resources belong to him, the basic purpose of the warchief has been achieved.

In fact, the orc army did not let go of Gnomeregan, but fortunately failed.

The dwarf is extremely intelligent and uses advanced science and technology to guard his homeland.

They planted dark thunders in the forests and mountains around Gnomeregan, and a large number of orcs died in confusion before they even saw the main city of the dwarf.

Gnomeregan also has an indestructible steel gate. After several weeks of bombardment with a siege chariot, Doomhammer ordered a retreat. When the battle in Ironforge came to an end, he ordered the blood ring clan to control the gnomes in the city, and had no intention of continuing to attack the main city. Gnomeregan escaped the anger of the tribe in this way.

On Lothar's side, after learning that the dwarves and gnomes had successfully defended the orcs' attack, they finally put out their plans to support hastily, and honestly waited for the army of various countries to gather before considering a battle with the orcs.

However, the encounter between the dwarves and the dwarves is not without influence on the alliance.

The orcs captured Khaz Modan so quickly, once again proving their strength to the world, and further aggravating the panic on the alliance side. The rulers of all countries seized the time to integrate their forces in order to establish a coalition as soon as possible. The orc's front was blocked from outside the country.

At the same time, in Stratholme, Archbishop Faor also accelerated the training of the first six Paladins. He plans to immediately recruit a second batch of qualified priests and warriors as the Hand of Silver after the first achievements of the Paladins. Recruits, train with several first-generation Paladins-of course, according to the agreement, these recruits will include some members from the high elves.

According to the current situation, although the alliance and the tribes are gradually at war, there is still some time before the real second orc war begins. The orcs need enough time to accumulate food and grass, and at the same time mine minerals and forge weapons in Khaz Modan— -The failure to capture Ironforge caused this process to be greatly lengthened.

The alliance also needs time to train Paladins and assemble and reorganize troops from various countries.

According to Ye Ting's prediction, this process will last about half a year.

As for Ye Ting, this half a year was not a lot of free time, and he also arranged tasks for himself.

That is, to find a way to eliminate the orcs' potential allies in Lordaeron, the threat hidden here.

There are two threats, one is the orc Frostwolf tribe that has escaped into the Alterac Mountains, and the other is the Amani troll living in the Jungle of Zuaman.

The former is a dissident among the orcs, holding a different concept from other orcs controlled by the evil energy, and therefore hiding in the mountains of Alterac, it is impossible to help the tribe in a short time.

The latter is the enemy in Ye Ting's eyes.

In the original history, Orgrim did contact these trolls, and the similar tribal culture and the same enemies made them hit it off. Orgrim later rescued Zul'jin, the leader of the Amani troll, even in a prisoner-of-war camp near Hillsbrad Hills.

The joining of the Zuaman trolls in the tribe has indeed brought huge troubles to the Alliance. There are trolls familiar with the terrain to lead the way. The family of the three sisters suffered heavy losses in this war.
