The quest title is likely a reference to Henry V by Shakespeare:
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more
Or close the wall up with our English dead.

What to do
Description
The Vanguard is secure, ally. We have reclaimed the Valley of Echoes and taken down the web walls blocking entry to the Breach. Now is the time to strike at Scourgeholme and establish our presence inside Icecrown. The battlefront moves on! I have asked the Ebon Watcher for his assistance with our assault upon Scourgeholme. His intimate knowledge of the Scourge will be invaluable in our effort. Go now and report to him at the tent outside of the Breach, northwest of here.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Last Line Of Defense
I've triggered the base's defenses, <class>! Atop each of the Vanguard's four towers is a retractable Argent Crusade cannon, blessed by Father Gustav himself. You'll need to fly up to one of those towers and man a cannon. Use it to destroy the Scourge onslaught that the Lich King has deployed.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Scourgestone
A Scourgestone is an item given to all Scourge upon birth or creation. It provides certain benefits to the holder, but more importantly it allows Scourge leaders visibility into the location and movement of all of their units.
