The purpose of his attack on the capital was only to dismantle Alterac's main resistance force.

Orgrim has understood that although there are tens of thousands of elite orcs around him, this army can't do anything in the hinterland of the alliance, and will face the siege and suppression of alliance troops from all directions.

For now, the only way is to admit the failure of his own strategy and return to the Arathi Highlands, or even return to the other side of the Sador Bridge, to shrink the sphere of influence of the tribe.

Only in this way, perhaps the living force of the tribe can be preserved.

Unfortunately, for Orgrim, all this seems too late.

Now, the Alliance has begun to lay siege to the Horde troops huddled in the Broken Hill area.

An army from Lordaeron, led by Alexandros Mograine, entered Alterac from the mountains to the north.

The main coalition from Hillsbrad Foothills, led by Anduin Lothar, entered Alterac from Tarren Mill in the south.

As for the east, led by Ye Ting, an army composed of private soldiers of the former Barov family and defeated soldiers from other areas of Alterac attacked from the direction of Caldaron, slowly oppressing the tribe's troops. activity space.

The west side is simply the mountains with no way to go.

Orgrim was once again caught in the siege of the Alliance.

Chapter 0590 Tribe's Retreat

With the establishment of the siege net, the situation of the tribe became more and more bleak.

Although the Horde has successfully occupied the royal city of Alterac in Broken Hill, it does not mean that they can hold it here.

In fact, tribes have never been good at defending cities, and it is even more unprecedented for them to be stationed in a human city.

These barbarian peoples, who used to settle in clans and settle accounts in the past, came to Azeroth. Even if they occupied Stormwind City, not many people lived in them. Today, they have not yet adapted to human-like City life, not to mention the tactics of defending the city.

Orgrim himself knew very well that being trapped in a lonely city was only a slow death for the Horde.

Only by breaking through can there be a chance of life.

And the direction of the tribe's breakout is exactly the east direction, the site where the Barov family is stationed.

In fact, it is not difficult to make this choice.

For the Horde, although they were attacked from three sides, the north and south were the elites of Lordaeron and the entire alliance. The only opponent in the east was a group of remnants of Alterac's defeated soldiers.

Besides, they have taken these places before, and they despised their defenses.

And most importantly, the location of the Horde's main force, the Arathi Highlands, is just to the southeast of them.

Ye Ting himself can see this very clearly. Therefore, in the plan of cooperating with the friendly forces to attack the tribe on three sides, his direction will be on the defensive for most of the time. The only purpose is to block the enemy's retreat route. There are only two other paths The army has an advantage in the war against the tribe, and they will take the initiative to attack.

Now, the tribe can resolutely give up the petty profits of Broken Ridge, and the goal is to escape from Alterac. Without a strong army, he naturally has to shrink his troops, stationed in Caldaron County, and rely on the city wall to block the advance of the tribe.

In fact, there are other villages and towns belonging to Alterac between Keldaron County and Broken Ridge. However, under the order of Ye Ting, the private soldiers of the Barov family forcefully evacuated the people in the villages and towns and concentrated them on In Keldaron County, he also took away anything that might help the Horde - including food and iron.

Facts have proved that Ye Ting's plan is very wise.

The tribe spent days traversing complex mountain roads, then descending into the hills, from Broken Hill back to the land they once occupied.

However, so far, the orcs have not seen any human beings, all the villages and towns are empty, like ghost towns, not only human beings, but not even a single human food.

This led to the failure of the tribe's plan to collect food and grass on the spot.

Although in Broken Ridge, the tribe received a large amount of food belonging to the Kingdom of Alterac, but these food and grass can not last too long: Although Broken Ridge is the capital area of ​​Alterac, it is not a food production place. Alterac's food source in most cases depends on the wealthy Barov family.

In addition, although Alterac did not send too many troops to support the alliance before, at least they transferred a batch of grain for the alliance, which further reduced Alterac's stockpile of grain, and also reduced the tribe's current capture.

It is necessary for the Horde to seek more sources of food and grass, otherwise the orcs will first starve to death before returning to the Arathi Highlands - at least they will lose their fighting power because of starvation.

The Horde's food officer reported this to Orgrim, but their warchief assured them that the problem would be resolved in the next city.

He deeply believed that the humans of Alterac would not disappear out of thin air—they had to have somewhere to live, and where there were people, there was food.

The next day, on the edge of Keldaronshire, the Horde's vanguard swarmed out of the mountains.

Doomhammer was at the front of the line as usual.

Now, he stopped and admired the beauty in front of him.

In front of the hills stretched a huge lake, the water shimmering silver-green in the morning light, this is the center of Caldaronshire, Darrowmere Lake, and the rulers of the city, the Barov family The castle is located on a small island in the center of Lake Darrowmere.

On the other side of the lake stood a number of east-west mountain ranges. Those mountain ranges were not much different from the mountains that the orcs had just climbed over. The only difference was the angle of inclination. One was facing east and the other was west. Forming a huge V, the lake is at the center of the V.On one side of the lake is a city surrounded by walls.

"Cairdron County."

Doomhammer looked at the town in front of him carefully. Above the city wall, he vaguely saw a lot of moving figures, probably the defenders of the city, and there were also ships traveling on Lake Darrowmere.

The city is not as empty as it has been before.

Come to think of it, the humans who disappeared from the previous villages were all concentrated here.

As long as this place is captured, whether it is the food and grass or the road to leave Alterac, it is in the hands of the tribe.

For the Horde, is it not easy to capture this town that has been captured once?

Thinking of this, he raised his warhammer above his head with both hands and let out a battle cry.

The other tribe warriors also cried out, and soon, the surrounding hills began to echo their anger, joy and bloodthirsty.

Doomhammer laughed.

The city will soon know that he and his men are here, but the battle cry will make them tremble with fear.Before they can recover, the Horde will crush them in one fell swoop.
