The death knight's sudden attack temporarily caused chaos in the alliance's defense line.

Where have ordinary soldiers seen such horrific scenes?

Although the heavy hammers and giant axes from the orcs were terrifying, they were traceable and they could still find ways to resist them.

And in such an inexplicable way that people bleed from all their orifices, these ordinary soldiers have no means of resistance at all.

What makes everything worse is the deadly death cloud emitted by the death knight, as well as the corpses of those who stood up again after death and turned back to attack their comrades in the past.

Whether it was the pervasive poisonous mist that would kill anyone or the corpses of comrades awakened by the Death Knight, they all brought deep fear to the Alliance soldiers.

The morale of the soldiers in the front row suddenly began to collapse. Many infantrymen even turned around and ran away when the Death Knight approached slightly. No matter how the grassroots officers tried to boost morale and emphasized the formation, they could not get the infantry to re-form the shield wall.

Some officers even took the lead in escaping.

Fortunately, for the orcs originally, the death knight was considered a feared and unpopular unit. When the death knight charged, there were not enough orc soldiers to follow.

Otherwise, as long as there are enough orcs to take the opportunity to charge, the alliance's formation will be overwhelmed.

Faced with the death knight who suddenly got up, Ye Ting, who had always been unfazed, was the first to react.

"The enemy's special forces have appeared, they are death knights!" 647 He ordered loudly: "Send out the Paladins to hold them back!"

Liadrin was the first to react to Ye Ting's order. Among the Six Silver Saints of the Silver Hand, she could be regarded as Ye Ting's direct descendant.

"In the name of the Holy Light!" Liadrin took the lead and shouted to the elven paladins behind her, "Silver Hand, attack!"

She took the lead in riding her horse and rushed into the soldiers in the front row, raising her sword high, the tip of the sword glowing golden like the sun.

"Stand up quickly, field soldiers!" she said. "The Light will protect you."

The light spread from the long sword, illuminating the soldiers, bathing them in the light. When the group of cloaked guys raised their hands again, although the soldiers flinched a little, no one fell down. .

Then, Liadrin rushed out, and a gap was opened in the shield wall, enough for Liadrin and other paladins to pass through. After that, Uther also led other holy knights of the Silver Hand. The knight followed.

The holy light of these holy knights instantly dispelled the death cloud spread by the death knights, and the corpses touched by weapons with sacred power fell down one after another as if they had encountered a nemesis.

Then, the paladins used their power of holy light to heal the wounded soldiers and calm their minds.

The Alliance soldiers cheered again, inspired by the Paladin's astonishing skill and strength.

Only Turalyon felt very conflicted. As a paladin, he should be with them, and as Lothar's adjutant, he should stay here to assist his commander.

However, no matter what, the Paladin and the Death Knight, two tit-for-tat professions that were born almost at the same time, are now facing each other face to face for the first time.

The death knight's shadow and necromantic spells brought death and decay to the battlefield, but the paladin's holy light was able to dispel the darkness. The two sides were evenly matched for a while, and the fight was back-and-forth.

At the same time, the orcs finally seized the opportunity and began to cooperate with the death knight to continue attacking the shield wall. However, the timely appearance of the paladin relieved the pressure on the defense line, and the torn holes were quickly filled by other soldiers.

On the orc side, Orgrim originally had mixed feelings about the death knight's power. Although he is still deeply uneasy about the death knights, he also agrees with their unstoppable fighting power on the battlefield. However, the sudden appearance of the Holy Knights from the alliance made him frown. These warriors who had mastered the power of the Holy Light were obviously much more difficult to deal with than the frail priests in the past, and their number did not seem to be less than seventeen, at least. Much more than the caster.

This forced Orgrim to increase the importance of death knights in his heart and suppress the thought of banning them.

But now, he has realized that if he wants to defeat the army in front of him that supports Stromgarde (as he thinks) and ensure the tribe's attack on Stromgarde, he must show more trump cards.

On the alliance side, Ye Ting quickly discovered the (bbbj) tribe's new move.

He saw many new creatures much taller than the orcs quickly approaching the Alliance's defense lines.

It's ogres! These huge amounts of creatures joined the battle. They waved sticks like uprooted trees. The addition of these behemoths immediately broke the balance of the battlefield. Even the Paladins and Death Knights had to deal with it. These big guys stayed away.

As a result, under their blow that was comparable to a battering ram, the entire shield wall collapsed, and the soldiers were defeated by this powerful blow. The Horde invaded through the gaps and swept away the Alliance soldiers inside.

"Change your strategy immediately," Ye Ting ordered the messenger. "According to the previous backup plan, all soldiers formed a small team defensive formation! Return to the rear and regroup!"

The herald nodded, then raised his horn, blowing first a short blast, and then another long blast.

After hearing this sound, the squad leaders began to shout orders to their own teams to assemble their soldiers. Even the soldiers who left their squads in the chaos gathered close to the highest-ranking sergeant.

Each team began to skillfully form small defensive phalanxes. This was Ye Ting's suggestion for training alliance soldiers based on modern tactics and Qi Jiguang's Yuanyang Formation. Although it was different from the large phalanxes favored by human countries, Still adopted by Lothar.

Now, this new training applied to chaos finally plays its due role.

These temporary shield formations formed with squad leaders and high-ranking sergeants as the core effectively prevented a large number of casualties caused by chaos. They began to retreat while containing the orcs.

The tribe tried to break through them, but the Alliance soldiers stood tightly together, holding their weapons steadily and stabbing any orcs who came close.

The orcs kept attacking these teams with sheer numbers, crashing into these warriors again and again, until they fell due to exhaustion. Compared with the large phalanx, these small shield arrays were indeed slightly thin.

Facing the crazy orcs, a small team would be defeated from time to time, and then the team would be engulfed by the orcs.

However, most of the Union soldiers were able to successfully retreat.

Others in the rear were not idle either. Turalyon and the other commanders rode through the ranks of soldiers at the bottom of the hills, organizing them to build another shield wall.

As each team retreats, the wall opens to let them in, then closes as they enter.

These soldiers then strengthened the wall and then helped other teams so that they could pass through safely.

The ranger troops of the high elves were arrayed behind the shield wall, and Alleria directed them to bend their bows and shoot arrows, trying their best to stop the orcs. "She was worried that any creature that might come close could knock down these defenders.

Finally, the temporary collapse of the defense line was stopped in time.

However, the existence of ogres is still a hidden danger to the alliance, and someone must deal with them. .
