As soon as Arthas's words came out, Dathohan and Gavinrad couldn't help but laugh - is this a joke? It was as if as soon as two people met, one of them suddenly asked, "Excuse me, do you learn to hum a pig?" Paladins such as Tulayan and Mograini couldn't help laughing, and they wanted to laugh but were afraid that Tirio would be too ugly, so they forced it, but their faces were flushed, and they looked extremely funny.

On the contrary, Uther, who was not smiling, understood the meaning of Arthas's words and asked, "You mean, we can't communicate with the orcs at all?" After establishing the master-apprentice relationship, Uther no longer respectfully called Arthas a prince, and his speech became casual.
Tirio Fordin then understood what the prince meant, and was in a dilemma - yes, the language spoken by the humans of Azeroth was the official language of the Arathi Empire, founded by Soladin the Great two thousand years ago, and evolved into the current lingua franca after the division of the Seven Kingdoms. And the language used by orcs from other worlds is naturally different from that of humans. If you want to negotiate with the orcs, you must at least be able to understand what each other is saying.
Tirio muttered, "This ...... It seems that negotiations are out of the question. "You know, orcs and humans have never communicated before, so I've never heard of a human who can speak orc, and I haven't seen an orc who can speak a lingua franca. How do the negotiations proceed in this case?
Tirio was frustrated—he seemed to be able to hear the inner laughter of Dathohan and the others, who were willing to discredit his own honor and get the orcs a chance to negotiate, but it turned out to be a farce. However, Arthas was quick to say, "Since the High Lord of Tirio can't speak orc, then we'll need to find someone who can speak." ”
Several paladins in the big tent were stunned, and Gavenrad asked, "Your Royal Highness, do you know of humans who can speak orc language?" Arthas nodded and said, "The Khadgar mage of Dalaran is the only human I know who can speak orc language. Gavinrad was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "yes! it was Khadgar who ...... that in the first place."
Gavinrad didn't continue, but the paladins in the Great Tent already knew what he was trying to say. When the orc army had just emerged from the dark gates of the Cursed Lands, Ryan Ureon, the king of Stormwind and Urion's father, and the commander of his army, Anduin Lothar, led the heroic Stormwind Guards and the Iron Horse Brotherhood to crush the orcs in the Cursed Lands, killing a large number of orc soldiers.
Forced to retreat into the swamps of sorrow in the north of the Cursed Lands, the orcs built the fortress of Stoned on the edge of the swamp in an attempt to fend off human attacks. However, under the fierce attacks of the Iron Horse Brotherhood, the fortress of Stoneard was on the verge of falling several times. In the end, the leader of the tribe, Guldan, did not know what kind of magic he had cast, and covered the entire swamp of sorrow in a mist, and Lothar withdrew his troops.
After the Brotherhood of the Iron Horse withdrew from the swamp of sorrows, they did not leave, but were stationed on the periphery of the mist. Lothar sent a messenger to Dalaran, hoping to get the help of the mages to break through the fog in the swamp and wipe out the orcs who had come to Azeroth. At this moment, Khadgar discovered that Medivan, the last Guardian and the most powerful mage in Azeroth, had been possessed by the powerful and evil Lord of the Burning Legion, Sargeras, and it was he who summoned the orcs.
Knowing that the last Guardian had betrayed, the brave and wise Anduin Lothar decisively sent troops to the Karazan Mage Tower, and with the cooperation of Khadgar, he killed Medivan and eliminated the orcs' inner response.
The fog is about to dissipate, and victory is at hand. If all goes well, there is no need for other human kingdoms to intervene, and Stormwind can wipe out the orc army on its own. However, at this moment, Khadgar and Lothar's comrade-in-arms at Karazan and Medivan, half-orc and half-draenei Garona, assassinated Stormwind King Ryan, who loved her, and took out the king's heart, causing the Stormwind army to collapse, and Lothar left Lordaeron with a few refugees.
This harrowing memory is remembered by every Stormwind person, and it is the reason why Dathohan and Gavin Rad insist on not negotiating with the orcs - a half-orc is so cruel and treacherous, and has no feelings, let alone a pure-bred orc? Arthas also knows about this past, because his friend, Varian Wrynn, was awakened every night by nightmares about the tragic death of his father when he first arrived in Lordaeron.
Although he knew that Dasohan and the others did not have a good impression of Khadgar, Arthas still said: "Yes, Master Khadgar used to work with the orc named Garona for a long time in the mage tower in Karazhan, and when he taught me potions and alchemy, he mentioned that he learned orc language. ”
"But Dalaran is too far from here, and if we encounter that group of orc wolf cavalry in the Alterac Valley tomorrow, will we have to wait for Khadgar to decide whether or not to go to war?" ”
Tirio Fording also reluctantly spoke, "Dassaulthan is right, even if we can wait, Master Khadgar may not return. I think the negotiation matter is forgotten, if that group of orcs really has a tribe hiding in the Alterac Valley, we try to keep their old and weak, it will not violate the way of justice. ”
Seeing that even Tirio, who had proposed the negotiations, had abandoned the idea, Uther planned to call the meeting over. However, Arthas suddenly said, "I have a way to contact Master Caddagar. All the paladins were taken aback, and Tirio said as if grasping at a straw, "Your Royal Highness, do you mean to let Master Khadgar arrive before tomorrow?"
Arthas nodded, and was about to say something, when suddenly his expression froze, and he suddenly got up from the ground, and ran outside the big tent, and said quickly: "I have left beforehand!" After saying that, the man had already left the tent. Tirio subconsciously stretched out his hand, grabbed it in the air, and then looked at everyone in the tent - what happened to make His Royal Highness the Prince, who has always been precocious and steady, so flustered?
