Crossing Azeroth, starting with the Heroes of Might and Magic system

The catapults built by the orcs stand on the battlefield like ancient behemoths. Their structure is complex and exquisite, with huge wooden wheels and ropes intertwined, forming a threat that cannot be ignored.

Under the control of the orc soldiers, the catapult slowly turned, adjusting the angle and strength. With a dull creaking sound, huge stones were loaded into the launching slot of the catapult. Some of these stones were round and smooth, while others were angular, and each one contained enough power to destroy a house.

When everything was ready, Commander Red Blackhand gave the order and the catapult suddenly launched its force. With a roar, the stones streaked across the sky like meteors, carrying destructive force, flying towards the walls of Stormwind City and even the houses in the city. At that moment, the air seemed to be torn apart, leaving visible tracks.

Multiple stones hit the target, and a deafening roar instantly erupted. Many boulders fell on the walls of Stormwind City, instantly killing dozens of soldiers. Many sharpshooters and musketeers were hit by the boulders, and some soldiers were instantly smashed into meat patties.

Some boulders crossed the city wall and fell into the trade area of ​​Stormwind, hitting some residents' houses and shops.

The pharmacy and cheese shop, which were close to the city gate, were unfortunately hit by the huge rocks.

Under the huge impact, the houses collapsed like paper. Tiles flew, wooden beams broke, and dust and smoke filled the air, covering the sky. The city was in a mess, and the screams and cries of the residents intertwined, forming a tragic picture.

Merchants and residents near the city gates took their valuables and moved to the rear of the city.

While the orc troops were using catapults to throw huge rocks at Stormwind City, they were also urgently assembling battering rams and siege ladders in the rear.

After seeing the dozens of ladders assembled by the orcs, Sir Lothar's expression became solemn.

Under the command of Sir Lothar, the human defenders on the city wall were already on high alert, with arrows and stones ready, and the tense atmosphere almost froze the air.

With a deafening war cry, the orcs began to move. They first launched huge siege ladders, which were made of thick tree trunks and tough ropes, towering into the clouds, like a ladder to heaven.

After seeing the orc soldiers approaching, Sir Lothar gave an order to the ranged troops on the city wall: "Attack!"

The sharpshooters, musketeers, mortar teams, witches, etc. who received the order began to attack the approaching orc soldiers.

In an instant, arrows, bullets and arcane energy flew towards the orcs like raindrops.

In front of the orcs' ladders, there are many huge wooden boards installed, as well as some magic defenses cast by shamans, which can effectively resist bows, arrows, muskets and magic, so that they will not be destroyed by ranged troops at once.

At the same time, the orcs on the other side started the battering ram. This battering ram was huge and heavy, with thick iron sheets covering the front and top, and the tip was as sharp as a spear.

The siege vehicle was pushed by dozens of powerful orc soldiers and slowly approached the city gate. Every collision made the city gate shaky and dusty, and the defenders' hearts rose to their throats.

At this time, the mortars on the city wall also aimed at the ladders and after a round of artillery fire, several ladders were destroyed.

The turrets and arrow towers near the city walls had also begun firing crazily, with shells continuously hitting the orc troops in front of the city gate, causing bursts of violent explosions.

But the number of orc troops was too large, and the orc soldiers on the ladders were already close to the city wall, and soon some of them climbed up the city wall using the ladders.

They wielded huge battle axes, sharp swords, and battle axes, and fought a desperate battle with the human defenders on the city wall.

For a moment, blood splattered everywhere, wailing sounded one after another, and the battle was extremely brutal.

At this time, some melee generals also began to fight with the orcs on the city walls.

Gavinrad, Gryan Stoutmantle, Karen, Mathias and others all came to the city wall.

At this time, the orcs who climbed up the city wall were basically ordinary soldiers, and none of the orc generals climbed up the city wall.

This resulted in the orc soldiers on the city wall being brutally brutalized by several human generals.

These melee generals were seen cutting through the ordinary orc soldiers like cutting melons and vegetables, as if they were in an empty space, killing people in all directions.

One general fought against several orc soldiers at the same time and was not at a disadvantage at all.

But there is still a steady stream of orc soldiers in the rear.

At this time, the mages also began to cast magic attacks on the orcs under the city wall and the Void Ray Knights in the sky.

The human mage troops are still relatively powerful, including Varian, Malcolm, Antonidas, Kael'thas Sunstrider, Sen'jin, and Gadrin.

Blizzard, chain lightning, lightning chain, flame storm, etc., a large area of ​​magic covered the orc soldiers under the city wall.

Thus, on the vast battlefield outside the city gate, an unprecedented showdown between mages and orcs took place. The sky was gloomy and covered with dark clouds, as if even nature was holding its breath in anticipation of this contest.

On the city wall, Varian, Malcolm, Antonidas, Kael'thas Sunstrider, Sen'jin, Gadrin, etc., holding exquisite staffs, their eyes reveal determination and wisdom. They stand in a row, facing the surging orc army, without fear.

The mages knew that this battle was not only about the safety of Stormwind City, but also about the dignity of magic and power.

With waves of low incantations, the wizards continued to cast their various magics. Their staffs drew brilliant trajectories in the air, as if communicating with the elements between heaven and earth.

For a moment, the wind was rising, the clouds were surging, lightning was flashing and thunder was roaring, and the entire battlefield was shrouded in a powerful magical energy.

On the orc side, although many soldiers did not know magic, they relied on their strong physical strength and fighting instincts to show no weakness. They brandished huge battle axes and hammers, roaring and rushing towards the mages. However, in front of the mages' magic, their offensive seemed to become somewhat powerless.

Fire, ice, lightning...all kinds of elements are transformed into deadly weapons under the control of the mages.

In addition to the sudden appearance of the huge water element, fireballs streaked across the sky like meteors, accurately hitting the orcs and burning them to ashes; frost arrows brought biting coldness, freezing the orcs into ice sculptures; and lightning struck the orcs like a punishment from heaven, scattering them.

Although the orcs were brave, they seemed helpless and unable to resist the powerful magical attacks of the mages.
