Chapter 170: Politics, Military, and People's Livelihood (Three Watches)
In August of the 21st year of the Dark Gate, the Trinity Alliance completely regained the Forest of Yongsong and the island of Queldanus, Benedict Smith returned to Stratholme on the third day after the battle to preside over the reconstruction of the city, and Quel'Salas left behind all the rangers and mages, and the rest of the troops returned to Stratholme with Benedict Smith.

Then, Kael'thas suddenly promoted a large number of new generals and officials, including many rangers such as Haduron Mingyi and Dallis Morning Strike.
Haduron Brightwing was appointed Ranger General, Dallis Morning Strike was his lieutenant, and Sylvanas Windranger, the former Ranger General, and his lieutenant, Lothima Theron, were promoted to the new Silver Moon Council, along with Kael'thas deputy, the astrologer Capnion, and all three were also canonized Marquis of Quel'Salas.
At the same time, he ordered the formation of the 'Knights of the Sun' of Quel'Salas, and appointed Liadeline, who was still training as a paladin in Stratholme, as the first leader of the 'Knights of the Sun', and made Leadline an earl. She will be in charge of all matters relating to the Paladins of Quel'Salas, as well as the selection of recruits to be trained by the Paladins at Dawnlight.
The Tri-Clan Alliance, which had lost its Ranger and Mage units, was disbanded, and it is unclear how Benny and Kael'thas discussed it, but after returning to Stratholme, Benny began training Dawnlight's own 'Air Force' and musketeers.
Of course, Benny himself knew why Kael'thas insisted on separating the Tri-Clan Alliance, and he wanted to form Quel'Thalas's own army, not some 'Tri-Clan Alliance', which was in line with his 'all for Quel'Thalas' character, but this inevitably made many humans and dwarves rethink whether these elves had 'betrayed' them again. Lordaeron had barely recovered the Stratholm region before Kael'thas was eager to separate his army from the Trinity, exactly as they had done during the Orc Wars!
Benny was sitting at his desk looking at the city plan drawings that had just been delivered, which had just arrived in the morning.
The drawings are considered to have pushed all the buildings in Stratholme to rebuild, starting with the docks. The wharf is divided into two parts, military and civilian, the whole city is divided into 5 parts, the original gate is the trade area, accounting for 1/5 of the whole city is slightly smaller, the west and east of the trade area are residential areas, the center of the city is all government offices, accounting for less than 1/10 of the city, and there is no independent wall, the rear of the municipal district is the church that Benny had promised, and the overall design of the church refers to Stormwind City. The remaining area closest to the dock is divided into two parts by Benny, the southeast corner is the military district, and the southwest corner is the location of all military industrial facilities, which is the largest area in the whole city, and the drawings are designed by Benny and a dozen craftsmen with experience in large-scale construction.
"According to the drawings, priority is given to the construction of the military industry, the residents, and the church. "Military facilities are Benny's top priority, and he has sent a fleet to Ironforge to buy all kinds of machinery and equipment, and intends to hire some engineers, accompanied by a mage envoy who is responsible for liaising with King Magni. It is said that the envoy was also a down-and-out nobleman, and when he received the appointment, he patted his chest excitedly and promised that he would live up to Benny's trust. "And the dock, I need a dock that can build two large warships at the same time. "The old warships must be eliminated, and hiring a group of dwarf engineers as soon as possible is the top priority now, and those gnomes are the masters of the alliance's black technology.
"We're a little tight on our gold coins. "Agamand has never felt so burdened.
"How many are left?"
"The gold coins borrowed from the elves are exactly 300,000. At the current expense, we can probably hold out for 3 months. ”
"When it comes to money, I'll find a way, and the existing plan can't be changed. "Stratholme is going to be the rear of the whole of Lordaeron, and the construction here has to be a top priority. "Send an invitation to all the nobles in my name, and I will feast on them this evening, and the place ---- will be here. ”
"Yes. ”
"Does it feel like a heavy burden?"
"We are short of manpower, in all aspects. "The logistics department managed by Agamand actually has only one framework, and each department has a supervisor, but the grassroots managers are basically in the blank.
"Promote some of the existing good performers, and use those nobles appropriately. But be aware that I don't want some of you to have mixed rice. "The talent problem is not something that can be solved in a short period of time, and Benny doesn't have a good solution.
"Understood. ”
"That's all for today, pay attention to rest after you go back, the logistics department can't do without you. ”
Agamand bowed slightly and exited the room, Benny rubbed his swollen brows, time! He was so short of time! The problem of the Well of the Sun needed to be solved, but Stratholme couldn't do without him for the time being, the hiring of the dwarf craftsmen, the various negotiations with the dwarven kings and the dwarf kings, the plan to purify the land as soon as possible with the help of the druids, and the most important plan to train the air force, all of these were all twisted together, and he was desperately lacking in all-round talents who could stand alone.
"Tuk Tuk~"
"Enter. ”
Footsteps sounded, Benny didn't look up, and the only people who could go past the guards and go directly to the study on the second floor were those few people, and there would be no one else but Gavinrad at this time.
"Sit down, pour the water yourself. ”
"Still having trouble with the city's construction?" said Gavinrad, sitting down to himself, and got a glass of water.
"There is a shortage of manpower, and Agamand alone can't keep it busy. ”
"I may not have come at the right time. ”
"It's Quel'Salas's problem. Benny looked up, his brow flushing slightly.
"There are more and more rumors in the army. Gavinrad sighed. "They all think that the elves have betrayed us again. ”
"It was my decision to let the elves separate 'temporarily'. Because no matter how close we are to Quel'Salas now, we are two separate races and nations, and so are the dwarves. It is simply impossible for us to remain in the state of the 'Trinity Alliance' forever. ”
"Some sober commanders understand this, but the people and most of the soldiers can't understand it, after all, the elves have a precedent. ”
"I've asked Havinfa to do this, and they will spread what I've said in the army, and the Ministry of Intelligence will pay attention to it. ”
Gavinrad nodded, he was here for exactly that. (To be continued.) )
