Translator 549690339
âOn the vast war plain, the Alliance players gathered one after another. Nearly 30 players stood together, and the crowd moved, looking quite impressive. â
âHowever, the Horde players werenât going to back down. On the narrow road next to the snow Sentry tower, the Horde players were also waiting. All kinds of traps and flares blocked the narrow road. They were also in a neat formation. â
âChen Zhao wasnât in the Allianceâs main forces. He was standing with li jingsi on a Hill near xueluo Cemetery, looking at the tribal defense line in the distance. â
âThe war plain was a large depression, and the field of vision was severely limited there. It was basically impossible to see the situation of the tribes âdefenses near the ice sentry towers and ice fortresses. However, from the xueluo Cemetery, the entire middle of the battlefield, including the war plain, could be seen at a glance. â
âLi jingsi looked at the main force of the tribe in the distance, frowning.ââââThe tribe seems to be planning to defend to the death? I thought they would come out again. ââ â
âChen Zhaoâs face was expressionless, but he didnât want to see this. â
âAlthough they had a perfect team battle at the bridge, not only did they defeat the Horde main force, but they also trapped them in the Thunderspear graveyard. There were many factors that contributed to that victory. The tribeâs general idea was one thing, but the special terrain was another. â
âLast time, the tribe had not made any preparations and had not even placed many traps. But now, would the tribe that had already suffered a huge loss be as careless as last time? â
âThe Allianceâs main forces were still gathering on the plains, looking at the mages and hunters on the mountain peak in the distance. â
âAlthough some people were so bored that they kept riding their horses in circles or jumping around, and they couldnât wait to rush up and fight to the death with the tribe, everyone was still waiting very quietly, and no one dared to advance rashly. â
âBecause in the previous battle, everyone had been convinced by this new battlefield leader and trusted his command from the bottom of their hearts. â
âChen Mo observed for two minutes and saw a thief typing in the battlefield channel,ââââA large number of tribes have arrived at the East and West tower. We might not be able to defend it!ââ â
âThe stealth team at the front also had a clear division of labor. They left a thief to monitor the situation outside. When they saw a large number of horde players rushing back, this thief immediately reported in the battlefield channel. â
âââSave your lives,ââ Chen Zhao immediately said.ââReturn the tower to them. Go back immediately and prepare to attack the tower.ââ The rest of you, get ready to charge with me! Letâs go. ââ â
The last sentence was clearly directed at li jingsi.
âThe two of them rode their horses and jumped down from the tall mountain peak. Then, they flew far away like feathers and landed among the Allianceâs main forces. â
âAs the two of them landed, the Alliance players rushed towards the snow fortress! â
......
âWhether Alterac Valleyâs terrain was advantageous to the Alliance or the Horde, there had been a debate since the first day this battlefield was created. â
âAlthough the key elements (towers, graveyards, and NPCs) of both sides were the same, the specific terrain and layout were different. This kind of dispute caused many disputes between the Alliance and horde, and everyone felt that they were at a disadvantage. â
âTo put it simply, both sides had their own advantages. The Alliance was loose on the outside but tight on the inside, while the Horde was tight on the outside and loose on the inside. â
âOther than the vast war plain in the center and xueluo Cemetery, the defense lines on both sides could be seen as three, namely the first and second towers + the captainâs room, the cemetery + the mine, and the inner tower + the first aid station. â
âThe second line of defense did not have any special buildings other than the mine, so it was not worth defending. Therefore, the key was the first and third line of defense. â
âThe Allianceâs first line of defense consisted of the stone furnace pillboxes, stone furnace outposts, stone furnace graveyard, and ice wing pillboxes. They were also far away, and the stone furnace pillboxes were isolated, so it was hard for them to receive reinforcements. The roads here were complicated. The Horde had at least three routes that could go straight to the cemetery, the second tower, or attack the captain. So the Allianceâs first line of defense was basically empty. It was extremely difficult to defend. â
âThe Allianceâs third line of defense, the bridge, was a perfect defense. Even if the Alliance players didnât know anything, they just had to defend the bridge. It would be hard for the Horde to attack. â
The tribeâs line of defense was the exact opposite.
âThe tribeâs third line of defense was riddled with holes. Although it also had a certain degree of steep terrain, it was much easier to break through the slopes than the bridges. There was even a small path next to xita that could be used to sneak in. If one was not careful, the thieves would sneak in. â
âHowever, the Hordeâs first line of defense completely destroyed the Allianceâs stone furnace pillboxes. â
âThe distance between the frost Cemetery and the frost Sentry towers was very close. They were in a horizontal line with the frost fortress, forming a triangular formation, and their support was very fast. The most important thing was that there was only one way to get to the snow Cemetery. There were mountains on both sides, and there was a roadblock in the middle of the road. As long as the tribe defended this intersection, they would be invincible. â
âIf the Alliance wanted to attack the captain or burn the ice sentries, the main force of the Horde would immediately rush out to fight you. It didnât matter if they died because the Hordeâs Cemetery was closer, and much closer. In a situation where both sides had almost the same number of people, it was almost impossible for the Alliance to take down the ice Snow Sentry tower, let alone kill the tribal Captain. â
âAs for trying to break through the tribeâs line of defense to open up a graveyard, that was even more impossible. In such a narrow intersection, no matter how many people rushed up, it would only be a suicide mission. â
âIt was because of this difference in terrain that something called the ââhorde Turtle Teamââ had once been born in the history of the aoshan battlefield, and it had once made the Allianceâs national team suffer. â
It had to be said that the players âwisdom was infinite.
âIn Chen Zhaoâs previous life, there was a period of time when the blood elves appeared. The number of people in the tribe increased rapidly, and the queue time on the battlefield also doubled. Many Alliance players began to organize YY teams and national teams, taking advantage of their faster queue to enter the battlefield to gain honor. â
âOf course, there were also daydream teams and national teams in the tribe, but after all, the Alliance players were all ranked in seconds, while the tribe players had to wait more than half an hour. So, in addition to the situation of the national team meeting the national team, there were also many times when the tribeâs random team met the Allianceâs national team. â
âThe consequences of this kind of collision were very tragic because the national team meant that there were many PVP players who specialized in the battlefield. They had good operation, good equipment, and professional commanders to dispatch each team, so they often had a very crushing result. â
âIn the battlefield preparation stage, the leagueâs national team directly sent messages on the battlefield channel and divided into teams. Team 1234 rushed to the ice and snow fortress to kill the tribal Captain, Team 56 defended the stone furnace tower and Cemetery, team 78 sneaked directly to the Hordeâs home to open the East and West towers, and after team 1234 killed the tribal Captain, they opened the ice and snow Tower and the tower Highland. â
âEven if the Horde players resisted, they would basically be scattered by the Allianceâs teams. They might even be repeatedly killed in the Frostwolf graveyard. After all, the players from the random teams were fighting for themselves. It was difficult to compete with the national team in a head-on battle. â
âTherefore, during that period of time, many horde players had a very unpleasant experience in Mount Olympus, especially those who played solo and were unwilling to play with the tribeâs national team. They had no game experience to speak of. â
âHowever, with the appearance of the ââTurtle Team,ââ everything changed. â
