Warhammer

At this time, Alina relied on the fact that no greenskins could be her match - and she could kill multiple enemies in one round. She had super physical strength and speed, and her full body armor and super defense specially bestowed by the Blood Mother. She led a group of Blood Mother believers who fanatically followed the footsteps of the God-chosen champion. The Alliance warriors rushed among the greenskins, and Al rode a griffin to keep an eye on the movements of his adoptive mother. But Alina was not as good as Hera. The wolf girl was always just a "strong one" in the mortal realm.

The Centaurs are the "chosen ones" who have transcended the mundane world.

Even if he had not spent a long time with Ai'er, and accepted the reverse "influence" and "infusion" of his adopted son, which led to the improvement of his life level, the Centaur in the Pina Forest period would have been an elite hunter of the Empire who could single-handedly kill a team in the woods, and a chosen one who chased down all kinds of behemoths.

Chapter 195: The End of the Battle of Black Rock

Alina led the elite troops in various advances into the enemy camp, and they were not far from their target.

A greenskin with a not particularly outstanding figure, wearing full body armor, can easily be confused with an ordinary greenskin warrior just by looking at his appearance.

Gebagba·Bonebreaker is not as powerful as Gao Maoliang·Flying Dragon. Although the latter is not famous for his strong fighting power, just from his body shape which is obviously a head taller than the big guys and generals around him, and his very burly appearance also shows that he has extraordinary fighting power.

This also proves that the goblins had no choice but to "pick the tallest one among the dwarves (this will be recorded in the Book of Hatred by the dwarves)" and choose this warlord who looks decent, has a poor brain, but not a bad temper, and can be easily manipulated by them to sit in the "top chair" of Black Rock Castle.

Its appearance is indeed too ordinary, and its brain is not very good, but its personality is not very bad. Therefore, although it is the nominal "commander-in-chief of the army", it is surprisingly "low-key" on the already chaotic battlefield.

The Alliance legions that attacked the greenskins' abdomen several times mistook those generals whose voices were louder than each other and whose performances were more ferocious and bellicosous than each other as their targets, thinking that they were the Bone Crusher Warlord himself. Instead, this "big warlord" who was being hunted by a group of strong men and women (all the descendants of Aiur, regardless of gender, are warriors) with knives, was able to stay safe for a long time in the chaos.

After all, although Gbagba was not as cunning as the Eight Peaks Mountain General [Skarsnik], or as brave as the Black Orc Commander [Grimgor Ironhide], or as scourge to the empire as the Dwarf Butcher [Gorbad Ironclaw], he was still a warlord who had nearly "a million troops" under his command during his heyday.

It is impossible to say that he has no strength at all.

It brought a team of personal guards who admired its title of "great warlord" and followed it. It did not seek to go to the core of the battlefield to face the military might of the alliance, but went straight to the enemy closest to it and successfully repelled several attacks of the coalition forces.

But all this was only after his identity was repeatedly confirmed, and it was determined that this greenskin "warlord" whose performance was "mediocre" or even on the edge was the target that the coalition was looking for this time. Gbagba Bonebreaker, the "great warlord" of the greenskins in Black Rock Fort, was about to come to an end.

He had just picked out two greenskin warriors in a row, chopped them in half with their armor on, and their organs were scattered all over the floor. His methods were extremely brutal, and he was just about to resume his hobby of "crushing skulls". After receiving the news from Aiur, the God-chosen Centaur used the halberd of [Slayer of All Armies] to directly gut the greenskins that had surrounded him, and then rushed towards the target direction with his guards without looking back.

That's the good thing about fighting greenskins.

If you can beat the opponent, it will be easy to beat them.

Even if you are defeated on the battlefield, if you have an unparalleled warrior like Alina, you can just wait for the opposing leader to rush over when the battle starts, then rush forward. If you can behead the opposing WaaaaaghBoss, perhaps the situation on the battlefield will be reversed in an instant.

This approach is somewhat unethical.

But when facing the greenskins, the barbarians are at least human beings. The greenskins are a race of complete "beasts", and there is no need to talk about rules and regulations. Who has the time to talk about morality and rules with wild beasts?

Well, the Knight Barto who damaged his brain by drinking spoiled foot washing water doesn’t count.

Alina held the "halberd handle" which was already a little warm from the killing. She had only held two of these things in her life, one was Al's and the other was the Centaur's own.

Puns...

He went to look for trouble with the enemy warlords with great momentum.

She has been waiting for a long time.

Even if this opponent, this victory was fake.

But the head of a great warlord who has gathered hundreds of thousands of soldiers is still a glorious trophy, enough to make the Furious Mother favor her and allow her adopted son to win the war as soon as possible.

After all, there is no shortage of powerful enemies on the greenskin side that can make the God-chosen Centaurs feel challenged and threatened with death.

Of course, facing such an opponent, El might not be able to resist intervening to ensure the safety of the Centaur Girl at the critical moment.

So slaughtering greenskins was enough fun for Alina.

That's about it.

Mowing the lawn too much can be annoying.

After the battlefield advanced into the fortress, the dwarf artillery could no longer provide help. Firstly, the continuous firing equipment itself had a load limit. Secondly, the internal area had various palaces connected by tunnels. Further bombardment might cause collapse. So they returned to the cold weapon combat with fists and fists.

But with Alina's strength and the Blood Mother Army following behind her, they are invincible on the battlefield. They can go wherever they want, as long as they are not stupid enough to rush into the crowd and get trapped...

Hera has something to say!

Gbagba Bonebreaker, a "warlord" who is not very well-known or has little "screening time", is leading his personal guards to ravage a group of human mercenaries. The Bonebreaker warlord holds a wolf-tooth war club and wears full body armor. Like the greenskin in Alina's Attack, he is also a fierce general who can "go in and out seven times" in the human mercenary team.

In the case of full armor, even if the musket hits, it cannot cause effective damage to the warlord. Although the wolf-like and ferocious greenskin guards are not all disciplined black orcs, in this kind of close-range melee, the greenskins have the upper hand just by relying on their brute courage to face the enemy who hastily turned to defense and did not form a formation to resist.

They quickly repelled the small group of human mercenaries in front of them who were only thinking about attacking and had no idea that they would be "fortunate" enough to run into the Bone Crushing Warlord in front of them. Nearly half of the team of more than a hundred people were killed or injured in a few breaths, and the rest had to retreat to the rear to seek support.

The Bone-crushing Warlord seemed to be aware that a powerful enemy was heading towards him. He threw the human mercenary in his hand to the ground, turned around and looked at the noisy rear. The latter was unfortunately stabbed in the abdomen by a spear and seemed to be beyond help.

It saw enemies led by a ferocious centaur coming towards it.

All the greenskins along the way were either blown away or fled in all directions under the fierce power.

The Bone-crushing Warlord realized that this was a powerful enemy. He walked to the front of the guards, and felt that a mace was not enough, so he picked up a shield from the ground and put it on his left arm. After weighing it and feeling that it was heavy enough, he roared at Alina provocatively.

"Waaaaaagh!!!"

The greenskins around the Bonebreaker Warlord were all infected by the warlord's battle cry, and their morale seemed to be reviving.

Under the mask, the Centaur's mouth curled up into a seductive, evil smile.

Regardless of your strength, anyone who has the courage to fight is an opponent worthy of respect.

And just then.

"Boom boom boom!"

The earth trembled, like the sound of thousands of horses galloping.

A huge monster nearly as tall as the city wall ran towards them.

The huge body actually blocked the sunlight in the area, shrouding it in shadow.

The giant leaped high and chopped down the battle axe in his hand, which required dozens of people to move.

"boom!"

An explosion and a shocking shock resounded throughout Black Rock Castle.

Even someone as strong as Alina was disturbed for a moment by the huge impact. She looked ahead and saw smoke rising from the place that was supposed to be her target.

He smashed the halberd down angrily, sinking it deep into the stone bricks laid by the dwarves. Then he grabbed the flagpole held by his follower, pierced three greenskins in a row, and threw it out, roaring:

"Alasta!"

The four-armed bull stole her prey and her battle results.

Gebagba and his bodyguards were almost turned into meat paste, mixed with the broken bricks, stones, soil, and armor.

"The big warlord is dead."

It's very strange that when the warlord is alive, his orders are difficult to be carried out everywhere. Except for his personal guards and those greenskins who saw him, other greenskins are fighting their own small fights in the big war. But once he dies, the news can spread quickly, and all the greenskins still on the battlefield will know this "bad news" for them.

This may be what makes the greenskin species special.

Then the collapse happened.

For the greenskins who have survived till now, the fight has been done and it has been satisfying enough, since the BOSS is gone......

Then the only option is to run away.

They will not be discouraged or panic-stricken just because of the failure of a major war.

The big warlord was dead, and at least one third, or even nearly half, of the 600,000 greenskins in Black Rock Castle were killed or wounded in the war. But after being defeated and scattered, they soon dispersed into hundreds or thousands of war gangs of varying sizes, with a maximum of 30,000 to 50,000 and a minimum of 20 or 30, gathering in the mountains and forests to cause chaos.

Continue the never-satisfied desire to fight that is rooted in your bloodline.

When enough people are eliminated, there will always be a cunning and powerful warrior who will rise up, defeat the neighboring tribes, annex them, establish a powerful warband, and launch another great Waaaagh...

But for the coalition forces, the current victory was enough.

Even for the most tireless person, such a period of fighting is enough.

Chapter 196: Ending

After the death of the "Great Warlord" Boneslayer, the end of him and his guards quickly became a disaster that spread throughout the army. The morale of the greenskins, who had no other bonus except the instinctive desire for war, soon fell into a total collapse.

Like the tide receding, looking down from the air, the black-green spores, like the fungus spots growing on the ground, are now "receding" from the surface.

The dwarves had anticipated this happening, and they did not completely seal off the entire Black Rock Castle because it was impossible to do so. At least the dwarves could not take care of the underground passages for the time being.

As a result, a large number of greenskins were able to escape through various corners and cracks, or hide in the underground of Black Rock Castle, which was also connected to the extensive underground passages dug during the glorious era of the dwarves, and disappear into the darkness.

The High King does not seek to kill all the greenskins gathered in Black Crag in one go. If possible, they can spend more time to slowly surround the entire fortress. As for the underground passage, they can also try to seize it as long as the reinforcements from the rear can keep up.

But that would not make much sense. The basic strategy of the Dwarfs' campaign to recover lost territory was to use the army to recapture a lost territory, invest a large amount of manpower to build a fortress to put it back into operation, and then link up the front-line garrisons one after the other, while at the same time deploying troops to clear the roads along the way to ensure that they were safe and unobstructed.

Although progress is slow, the advantage of this approach is that it is steady and reliable. As long as the rear is strong enough, there is no need to worry about more greenskins breeding behind the lost fortress that has just been recovered. The recovered fortress is firmly in hand, and there is no need to worry about supplies being cut off or surrounding harassment every few days.

The dwarves are true experts in tunnel warfare. Their various new weapons perform extremely well in small and medium-scale group operations. They are not afraid of fighting a "security war" with the unorganized greenskins.

After defeating the enemy in front of them, they can devote all their efforts to ensuring the smooth passage to Thunder Fort, and will soon receive a steady stream of material reinforcements from the rear. By then, they will have plenty of time and energy to deal with the defeated greenskins after they recapture Black Rock Fort.

There is no need to waste military strength just for a little "result" at the moment.

After the apparent unity is broken up, the fleeing greenskins will turn into countless war gangs of all sizes and engage in a melee in the mountains. The dangers in the endless mountains and the fighting between war gangs will soon "naturally eliminate" most of the greenskins, so they don't need to waste that energy.

After the total collapse, the coalition forces also sounded the clarion call for a full-scale offensive at the right time.

Despite his agitated emotions, the High King still gave very steady orders to advance steadily, taking over the power gap left by the greenskins. He did not rashly lead his entire army into the city, impatiently "recovering lost territory" and "comforting the spirits of the ancestors."

What if the enemy has a backup plan and takes advantage of the army entering the city? The formation will inevitably be scattered and it will be difficult to coordinate and respond in a unified manner. It would be bad if the enemy in the dark launches a surprise attack and the good situation is ruined.

Al was very "relieved" to find that the High King was not at all impatient when the situation was settled, and that he was still cautious in deploying his troops. He felt that the High King's steady demeanor was worthy of the praise of "the elder of the world". When Chaos marches south in the future, he will lead his troops and hunt with the kings of Order in Altdorf. If they come to his rescue with a large army of dwarves, and fighting alongside him (really) is Aladdin Whitebeard, then it must be very reassuring and reliable.

As for him, there was nothing to do next. Black Rock Castle was the territory of the dwarves, and it was reasonable for them to clean up other people's houses themselves.

The relationship isn't that bad yet, so there's no need for Ai'er to interfere. The Eastern Expedition Army he brought, composed of the most elite troops of the Alliance, has less than 30,000 men now. This size can make the final decision on the battlefield, but when it comes to repair and construction work, they may not be able to match the strength of thousands of experienced dwarves.

He asked Kael'thas to continue to stay with the High King and "temporarily obey the King's orders." Letting his child serve as the High King's affairs officer was a way of showing closeness and friendship.

He was busy trying to comfort the Centaur who was feeling unhappy because he had his head "robbed" by the four-armed bull Alastair. The grand battle ended in a flawless way, which really made the Centaur a little irritated.

So he led his troops to continue hunting down the greenskins, specifically rushing in the direction where the largest number of people were fleeing, in order to vent his endless desire for war.

Fortunately, although Alina was crazy, she would not get too carried away when encountering things after Al had given her many warnings and "taught" her in various ways. She only fought on the ground and did not rashly go deep into the underground tunnel. Moreover, with the size of the Centaur, it would be difficult for her to maneuver there, and she would be in danger of stumbling if she was not careful.

El was busy trying to pull his adoptive mother back. Looking at the situation, according to "tradition", there must be a "big war" after the big war. The Centaur girl who had vented her desire for fighting and killing would soon become craving for another desire, and would ask her adopted son for it without hesitation.

When the mother and son return to the tent, there will inevitably be an extremely fierce battle. The centaur who has just slaughtered countless greenskins will have a bonus of willpower, and it is not as easy to deal with as those who have lived in the palace for a long time. Even if more and faster are handed over, she will not let him escape easily unless she forces Al to fill the horse's belly.

So Al might miss the celebration party for a while...

......

This chaotic war has come to an end no matter what.

The expeditionary force led by the High King was concerned about casualties, so they engaged in a long confrontation with the greenskins in Black Rock Castle, looking for an opportunity to fight. All this was achieved after Aiel led the Alliance's new forces to join.

The dwarves received the reinforcements they had been calling for for a long time. Although they did not come from the traditional ally of the mountains, the Empire of Sigmar, the powerful elite infantry brought by Aiel was enough to make the dwarves cheer. This enabled them to finally make up for their last shortcoming, causing the enemies of Black Rock Castle to be quickly defeated by the firepower of the dwarves and the frontal assault of the Alliance.

The Bonebreaker Warlord is dead, and the goblin "parliament" that controlled him behind the scenes fled in all directions. The "collaborators" bribed by the dwarves on the greenskin side - they are definitely not allies or partners, but simply profit-seeking hounds who were lured into "helping" the dwarves for a short period of time with the help of benefits - tried to resolve the issue at the request of the dwarves, and it would have been best if they could capture a few goblin warriors alive. Unfortunately, the results were minimal, and their rebellion only caused some minor troubles to the greenskins, and it was obvious that they also had an attitude of working without putting in any effort.

People like the ogre mercenaries came to the west for profit, so it's natural for them to switch sides to the dwarves. As for the undead... this involves the unspeakable secret deal between the Kingdom of the Mountains and the Kingdom of Night of Sylvania, so it's not worth paying attention to.

There are still a lot of greenskins left in Black Rock Castle, but that can be dealt with later. Now...

Chapter 197: Southward Expedition! Southward Expedition?

The Battle of Black Rock Castle ended with the victory of the Order Alliance.

The dwarves invested more than two years of preparation and energy in this endeavor. In the end, with minimal casualties, they consumed a huge amount of supplies and money in exchange for this important lost territory being returned to the rule of the Mountain Kingdom.

There are three parties involved in the war: the Dwarves, the Alliance, and the Empire.

Among them, if we talk about the casualties of the direct headquarters, the alliance with the lowest status and the smallest size, which is weaker than the dwarves in all aspects except population, has suffered the most.

The Battle of Black Rock Castle resulted in the Alliance's Eastern Expedition Army, which had 27,954 men, losing 2,312 men killed and nearly 6,000 wounded when it arrived at the front line to join forces with the High King's main force.

In comparison, the vanguard of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, which had the fewest number of entrants at the end, had only over 400 wounded and less than 100 killed. They were the group that came there to create a nice atmosphere and to create courtesy.

Of course, the "dwarves" suffered the most casualties in the battle. The huge human mercenaries under the dwarves paid the price of nearly half of their casualties in the long confrontation and the final decisive battle. The number of human mercenaries who died directly in Black Rock Castle was at least more than 30,000. The compensation that the dwarves had to pay for this must have been an astronomical figure...

After a little calculation, Al began to fantasize about the huge amount of wealth.

I wonder if I can get such an investment from the dwarf loan to support him in continuing to promote the construction of the alliance's X-year plan?

However, this was bought from the imperial people by the dwarves with real money, so he would not envy the fact that the citizens of his own country were forced to take risks and go to a foreign country to fight for their lives, exchanging blood for gold, and becoming the dwarves' "Ten Gold Crown Mercenaries" when they were starving and poorly clothed.

This is something Al absolutely cannot accept.

In essence, it is the same as selling one's own women as prostitutes in exchange for primitive accumulation. However, the empire was a little better. There was no official initiative to promote it, but instead an attitude of tacit approval and cooperation in propaganda.

Even if he didn't have to endure the hardship and effort required to develop, Al would never do such a thing.
