Wryon looked at the bustling city, and suddenly felt a little sad in his heart, thinking of what Stormwind City had been like when it had not fallen, and also thinking of his father, King Lane. But a strong warrior will not cry www.biquge.info but Ryan thought of Teacher Anduin's teachings, and drove the grief out of his heart, and became even more determined to purge all orcs of their minds. Arthas did not notice the psychological changes of his friend, and he wandered around the bazaar, and was soon recognized by some of the townspeople, who flocked to the prince to bring the prince the best of their house and invite him to taste it. Alsace tasted some simple snacks and took a few delicate knick-knacks, which he planned to take back to his sister, and did not insist on paying for them, but he refused to take any more. The townspeople did not force their prince to do so, but they all gathered around Arthas, just wanting to see their favorite prince more. Arthas looked at the joyful and enthusiastic crowd around him, and his heart suddenly stabbed like a knife - was it such a group of kind people who trusted and worshiped him that he had been bloodily slaughtered?

Thinking of this, Arthas found a stall, climbed up, and shouted, "Lordaeron Lordaeron Lordaeron Lordwind Lord, as you all know, you may be terrified of the news of the invasion of the Tyrannical Orcs. Now, I can tell you that Archbishop Alonthos has formed the most powerful legion ever built, that every member of the legion will be a battle-hardened warrior, and that Lordaeron's Royal Guard is ready to take on the orc army. Today, Lady Aurelia of Quel'Thalas has brought reinforcements from the High Elves, each of whom is a skilled ranger, and in the near future, King Daelin of the Kingdom of Kurtilas will bring a vast fleet that will allow us to rescue our compatriots trapped in the Wild West and attack the abominable invaders from the sea. So, don't worry, in the name of Arthas-Minethir, I swear to kill every orc that comes into Azeroth!"

Hearing the prince's speech, the crowd erupted in bursts of shouts, and some people shouted: "That's right, no matter how fierce the orcs are, they can't cross the heavily defended Sador Bridge!" Arthas couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this-the orcs also have a navy, and if the bridge can't be crossed, it can still be transported by ship, in fact, the later orcs used ships to log in to the territory of the Lordaeron Kingdom. Others say they can rely on the Soladin Wall, while others say that the mages of Dalaran can defeat the orcs. Suddenly, someone shouted, "And the kingdom of Alterac!" the orcs will not be able to cross the valley of Alterac, all we have to do is defeat this group of bastards in the hills of Hillsbrad!" The crowd cheered again, as if the orc's destruction was imminent.

Arthas, however, felt that something was wrong - how could he have forgotten about these fellows? The impression was that the betrayal of the kingdom of Alterac had caused the orcs to pass through the valley of Alterac, destroy Dalaran, and march under the city of Lordaeron. Thinking of this, Arthas jumped down from his stall, pulled up Urien, who was watching the excitement on the side, and ran towards the palace with a roar, and the citizens looked at each other, not knowing what was happening, but no one would stop them, and just watched his little prince disappear from sight.

Arthas dragged Wryn all the way to the gate of the palace before stopping, gasping for breath, feeling like he was about to run out of breath. Ureon was strong and didn't react, and asked curiously, "Arthas, what's the matter with you?"

Although 100,000 people were in a hurry, Arthas was still in his position, and did not run in the palace, but only quickened the pace of walking. When he came to the door of the main hall, he did not forget to return the salute to the saluting guards slowly, and then pushed open the door of the hall and walked into the main hall. The courtiers had long since dispersed, leaving only his father, King Terenus, Anduin Lothar, Archbishop Alonthos Fao, and Uther to discuss. King Terenus has stepped down from his throne and is working with a few of Stormwind's political refugees on the side of a huge map to figure out how to deploy his army. Seeing Arthas and Ureon enter, several people's eyes turned to this side.

Arthas walked quickly to the table, first saluted the elders, and then asked Anduin Lothar and said, "Lord Lothar, has the messenger sent to Alterac Castle not returned?" Anduin Lothar was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied: "Yes, it's been five days, why haven't you come back yet?" Then his face changed, and he glanced at Uther, and said, "You mean ......" Arthas nodded and said, "That's right, I suspect that the messenger won't come back!" This can't be, there must be something delayed. No matter how fast the orcs march, it is impossible to capture the castle of Alterac, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and besides, even if the orcs come, it is impossible for King Aiden not to come and ask for help!"

Arthas shook his head and said: "The task of the messenger is only to convey a letter wishing them to hold on to Alterac Castle, from Alterac Castle to Lordaeron, it only takes half a day to ride a griffon, and now that five days have passed, there has been no reply, I think King Aiden may have secretly taken refuge in the orcs." Uther's face changed, and he said loudly: "Your Royal Highness, a person of virtue should not slander others behind his back. King Aiden is already the king of Alterac Castle, so what good is it for him to take refuge in the orcs?" Uther's words were full of accusations, but Arthas could still hear his teachings.

After saluting Uther, Arthas said: "I think my father knew Aiden's character very well. This man was not a valiant warrior or a resolute character, on the contrary, he was more interested in power and money than anything else, and would do anything to get it. Before the Orcs invaded, his relationship with Lordaeron was very strained, and I don't think it was possible to count on him to hold the Alterac Valley, and even if he didn't rebel, we should take over the defense of the Alterac Valley. ”

Listening to Arthas's words, Lothar set his sights on King Terenus, hoping to seek his opinion. King Terenus thought for a moment and said, "Aiden is indeed not a good leader, and the garrison of Alterac Castle is indeed limited, and it is difficult to defend Shattered Ridge and Alterac Valley at the same time, so I think we can send a part of the army to assist them." The old king's words were tactful, but they clearly conveyed the same meaning as Arthas—a distrust of the abilities and integrity of Ayden Pernord, king of the kingdom of Alterac.
