The original beautiful harem of the palace had been reduced to a dilapidated condition in several rounds of fierce fighting, and since the two killing gods of Tirio and Muradin had eliminated the slightly higher level of conscious undead in the place, the army of the undead who had lost their command had been able to return to wandering aimlessly, while all the living were given a relatively safe and brief rest.

"Are you saying that the Halo of Light led by Harak the Lifebringer and the Extreme Force led by the Orc Slayer Dagran have broken through into two teams with the refugees?......? Finally, he broke through in the direction of the undead fortress, intending to join Uther's army?"

After learning the truth about this brutal massacre, Tirio appeared in his true colors, which really frightened some people who didn't know the truth, but soon, in the face of such a national disaster, no one cared about the reappearance of the old heroes who had been characterized as killed in battle.

Moreover, in such a difficult time, there are many people who can fight like Tirio who stand up and fight for their country, because they feel that they are fortunate to be able to fight against evil under the leadership of an old hero, and this sense of military glory is also unparalleled.

Edlan listened to the situation while helping to treat the wounded, he was clear about the general direction of this "history", but he didn't know many details, and it was not enough to have a general direction to make a decision now, especially the next military operation, the details were related to whether the only remaining flame of hope for Lordaeron's restoration could continue to burn.

"Yes sir!" Margros the Guardian is the kind of person who is very excited to see the return of the old hero, Princess Kalia is almost blind to both military and political things, and there is no other person in charge here except for him, a small lieutenant, so the appearance of Tirio allows him to quickly find the backbone, so he replied very respectfully: "We were raided before, and we suffered heavy losses, but the king of Arthas ...... The group of very warlike undead troops he led left in a hurry after cutting out most of the defenders guarding the royal city, which made the undead here seem to have been weakened by several levels before we could continue to hold on, and the two of them also took advantage of that time to break through first. ”

Tirio glanced at Princess Kalia, who was constantly using the Holy Light Spell to treat the wounded in the back, and then asked with some reproach, "The longer it gets here, the more dangerous it becomes, why didn't you break through with Her Royal Highness the eldest princess in the first place?"

Margros said helplessly but solemnly: "I'm sorry sir, but this is the decision of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, she said that the people of the Minehir family have no cowards, and she will buy time for the evacuation of refugees." And, in fact, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of the Death Knights and Necromancers and bringing with them difficult troops, we would have broken through a long time ago. ”

Tirio was silent, but his face was even more relieved, the kingdom was not without a successor, and Princess Kalia's temperament when the country was in danger was enough to make her step by step towards the position of the leader of the new Lordaeron.

The situation now is that the command of the undead army here has been swept away, allowing the army of the living to breathe a sigh of relief. But according to their experience in dealing with the undead, as long as these undead have passed the adaptation period, even if they have no commander, they will become extremely difficult, like the mid-level and above professionals do not feel very much, but ordinary soldiers and low-level professionals will find these monsters very difficult to deal with.

So, now should we evacuate this city, which already has hundreds of thousands of undead monsters, as soon as possible, so where should we evacuate to?

Thinking of this Tyrio's trouble, he didn't know at all what the relationship between those undead and Arthas, where the magic sword was going to lead Arthas, what the purpose of the undead army was, Tirio didn't know, he consulted Muradin, consulted the guard here Magros, and even asked Princess Kalia, but they didn't know.

This feeling is too bad for the enemy to understand, and once he leaves the current relatively safe environment, if the situation outside is more dangerous than it is now, then Minerhil's bloodline will probably be cut off at the hands of his Tirio.

For a moment, Tirio was in a dilemma.

"Actually, there's nothing to hesitate about. Just when Tirio was in a dilemma, Edlan finished treating the wounded, and he walked with Princess Kalia and analyzed: "Three directions, three options. One is to go west to south, directly through Lake Lordamir into Dalaran to seek refuge, although the mages have never interfered in royal power and so-called secular wars, but this undead scourge obviously has fallen mages involved, and Master Antonidas has a good relationship with the previous king, so I don't think they should sit idly by.

The second is to the north, where there is my territory and city, and behind me is the Monastery of the Holy Light, there is no need to say about safety, if there is really danger, you can evacuate by sea, but the situation in Anaheim City is more than defended, and the progress is insufficient, and I do not have enough troops to counterattack. Unless you can contact other countries or powers by sea for help, you can only stay in the place.

The third is to pass through the undead barrier, in front of the East Lordaeron area, and converge with the large forces of the Knights of the Silver Hand. This has the advantage of being safer, but it will also keep Princess Kalia in a state of war and turmoil for a long time.

...... Don't worry, there must be danger, listen to me first.

These three options have their own advantages and disadvantages, if you go to Dalaran, there is a Council of Six, even the Speaker of the Council, Master Antonidas, must take into account the interests of the entire Dalaran, I am afraid that those mages who are too smart may not contribute too much to our recovery; to go to my territory is naturally close, there will be fewer dangers on the way, and the shortcomings I have just said, the pattern is too small; then the third, I am not sure what the purpose of Arthas, which is controlled by the magic sword, but I dare to guarantee that he will definitely have to join those undead armies, and the two undead gathering places of Andorhar and Stratholme, where his army will be stronger than ever......

So, I think, the troops of the Alsace commander have left here a few days ago, so the undead fortress should have fallen by now, and the road to the east is likely to be a dead end. ”

"You've done a good job. After hearing this, Tirio exclaimed, and then fell into deep despair, and he also ignored Kalia who was present, and said, "You may have just become a major and do not know about the military system of the kingdom. Although the garrisons in various places were able to obtain some supplies from the local area, most of them were like the Knights of the Silver Hand, the money bags were in the hands of the royal family, and the supplies and logistics were transported from the royal city to the hands of Tyre, so now that the road is cut off, Stratholme is gone, and it may be difficult to support the movement of the army with the income of the East Lordaeron region alone...... I only hope that the Barovs of Kelldaron will be able to serve as kings so that Uther's forces can be well supplied. ”

Those who knew the inside story muttered to themselves when they heard the word Barov family, which was more difficult to get along with than Baron Rivendell, the family that held a huge territory, rich and rivaled, but ignored the various wishes of the kingdom, and for a long time they had almost always "stayed" in the kingdom of Lordaeron in the form of a state.

This is also one of the reasons why the kingdom of Lordaeron seems to be strong, but in fact it is very weak, many powerful nobles do not buy it, although on the surface they still respect the royal family of Minethil as the king, but in fact they live the life of this emperor on their own acres and threes of land.

This is still known by the natives of Azeroth, and the traveler knows even more. The famous psychic academy of the "later generations" is estimated to have taken shape at this time, and he thinks it is better to let Princess Kalia follow Lothar to Lordaeron to ask for help like Varian did before.

"Ironforge will definitely help you. "Muradin, after listening to the analysis, was also righteous, and as the prince of Ironforge, he had enough influence to influence his brother Magni Copperbeard.

"Then why don't you go to the Stormwind Kingdom. Edlan was inspired and blurted out.

"Huh?" Tirio was a little confused by Edlan's idea of jumping away, why did the topic go to the Stormwind Kingdom?

"Just as Ser Lothar brought the refugees of the Stormwind Kingdom and their prince to Lordaeron, the kingdom is now in disarray, and we need time and strong allies to restore it. Edlan further explained, and then his analysis weighed everyone's eyes and brightened at the same time.

Indeed, the Stormwind Kingdom has the conditions and obligation to help Lordaeron recover the country, and this timeline, after Edlan settles the matter of the Stonemasons' Union, as far as he understands the international situation, the Western Wilderness is in trouble, but it is not as big a disturbance as the "previous life" Edwin Van Cleef, so the Western Wilds are not broken, and the Elwyn Forest is not too affected, which is far better than the bad situation of the "previous life" of the Stormwind Kingdom.

Moreover, the Kingdom of Stormwind has to accept the refugees and royal orphans of Lordaeron, no matter who is in power by King Varian or the Council of Nobles, they cannot refuse the country that has helped them to restore their country, which is the "morality" of the aristocratic circle and even the political circle. What's more, the Stormwind Kingdom is a member of the Alliance, if they refuse today, then the other countries of the Alliance will also be able to reject them for other reasons in the future, which is also the basis of the alliance to help each other, which also belongs to the category of diplomacy between countries.

There is also a little emotional card that can be used, when the young Varian took refuge in Lordaeron, King Terenus treated him like his own, and he also formed a good friendship with Arthas and Kalia, so it is impossible not to help, even if Varian falls into a low point in his life because of the death of the queen.

In fact, Edlan thought to himself that if Kalia went to Stormwind, maybe she could use her influence to wake up Varian and let the young king return to normal sooner.

In addition, there are military, economic and other factors, the treasury of the Lordaeron King City has not been looted, and the undead monsters have no idea about the gold coins of the living, but the problem is, how many places can these gold coins be used in the Lordaeron Kingdom, which is already equivalent to the ruins of the country?

This land is like a ruin, Tirisfar, Andorhar, or Stratholme? It is conservatively estimated that there will be three million undead in these fallen areas, even if they are all the kind that are not controlled by high-level undead, and it will probably take several years just to send troops to clear them...... How many troops are there in Lordaeron? It is estimated that only a few in the East Lordaeron region are left, and how many combat strength is left in the Silver Pine Forest after several rounds of transfers? Edlan knew very well that near Andorhar, the troops under the command of Gavinrad and Uther were destroyed by Arthas, in order to snatch the ashes of Kel'thugad that Uther had kept.

Therefore, these gold coins in the treasury can only be used to trade with foreign countries to buy military supplies such as food, weapons and equipment, and then transport them back to give blood transfusions to the troops who persist in fighting in the occupied areas, which is the most direct role played by the government-in-exile when it takes refuge abroad. Even Gilneth, which is gradually closing, Dalaran, who is likely to be unable to work, or Ironforge, and Stormwind Kingdom, which are far to the south, have no reason to refuse this funding.

After Edlan's analysis ended, the few surviving courtiers present began to discuss the feasibility of it. No one spoke of the once great country in the Arathi Heights, for they now had only Riptide Castle left to protect themselves...... No one mentioned the city that had just begun to be built in the Western Continent, and Ms. Proudmore herself was too busy to help Lordaeron recover, and similarly, Kurtilas, who supported Gianna in building the city, did not have the time to care about Lordaeron's life or death, after all, the relationship between the two countries became very delicate after the princess said that she was not ready and broke up.

However, if you can, it can also be discussed to rent the fleet of Kul Tiras to escort the trade routes, after all, the relationship between the two countries is not good, Lordaeron is about to die, and I believe that Daylin Proudmoor is not a person who does not know the general situation, so he can fight for it.

On the other side, while the surviving courtiers were arguing about something, Princess Kalia stood very quietly, no expression could be seen on her face, she did not argue, she just quietly watched the courtiers arguing about the restoration of Lordaeron, and they, like Tirio, did not even symbolically ask for her opinion.

It's no wonder that the old king has just passed away, and the murderer is the prince, and what's even more terrifying is that this prince has also become a death knight and slaughtered his own people, which makes many people subconsciously avoid the question of Lordaeron and the orthodox ruler, even if they admit that Kalia is now the hope of Lordaeron's recovery, but they also think that Kalia is just a vase princess, and she is not suitable to be a king to lead Lordaeron.

It was Kalia who understood their complicated feelings, so she quietly waited for the courtiers to argue, for them to come up with a final decision, and then she chose to follow these "hopes" of the motherland to find hope for the restoration of the country.

Edlan is not qualified to participate in such a discussion, this has risen to the level of militarism, it is not for him to participate in a small major, if Tirio is not a detached person, and now has the merit of "saving the driver", I am afraid that he will not be recognized by those civil servants who think they are the reincarnation of Lothar.

That's for sure, although those courtiers don't want to recognize Kalia, but if the country is restored, Kalia will definitely become the new king, how can you not show off her sense of existence in front of the new king in the future?

In this case, Muradin, of course, saw something, he was also a member of the royal family, and he had also been in human society for a long time, so he was not surprised by similar things, he walked over with a pipe in his mouth, and talked to Kalia in a low voice, as if to comfort the other party.

At this time, Edlan also came, he was a little ashamed, and then he said in a slur voice, "Sister Kalia...... I'm sorry, but I couldn't get Alsace back. ”

Having studied with Arthas under Uther's tutelage, Adline was able to maintain some good relations with Kalia, not too close and not too distant, the kind of relationship between friends above sister and below friends.

Naturally, Kalia also knew that Adelan was injured that day, so she ran to her father to ask for instructions to go to Northrend to urge Arthas to withdraw his troops, but when Arthas returned but there was no news of Adelan, Caria felt a little strange, so now after seeing this young man who looks like a younger brother appear again, Caria also knows that he can't be blamed.

"It's not your fault, it's just Arthas...... Alas...... Why is this happening?"

At this time, Edlan realized that it was not that Kalia did not have much emotional fluctuations, but that she had to be strong, because she had a very clear understanding of her identity, and while the flag of Lordaeron's restoration was still a vase. So she had to carry the banner of restoration like a man for the responsibility that should not have been borne by her, but she could not gain everyone's recognition and respect for such an action.

After all, Kalia was cultivated in the manner of a standard princess-to-be, and her knowledge of statecraft and governance was almost discredited, so it was no wonder that those courtiers did not come to her to discuss with her.

How sad.

The light-hearted Edlan can't change this fact, and can only help the 25-year-old "Flag of Recovery" in the best way he can.

So Adlan said to Muradin, "Muradin, you're going back to Ironforge, right?"

"Well, yes, this war is completely beyond what one country can handle. ”

"Well, I remember that there is a dwarven army in the valley of Alterac, and it seems to be very capable of fighting, you see......"

Muradin gave this young human young man a strange look, I don't know how he is so clear about the strength of the dwarves, but after thinking about it, this guy has something to do with the dragon clan, it shouldn't be strange to know this, right?" "Well, the Thunderspear Dwarves are indeed very capable of fighting, but I heard that they have recently clashed with the orcs hiding in the valley, do you want to fight them?"

"Yes, as you said, this war is no longer something that one country can deal with, and if you can get strong foreign aid, why not do it, and besides, after the restoration of Lordaeron, the land is sparsely populated, and I think Princess Kalia will definitely welcome you to open a new home here. ”

Looking at Edlan's eyes on her, with Kalia's wisdom, it immediately understood that this was his weight and support for her to get more revenge, so she also said: "Yes, Mr. Muradin, if Lordaeron can be restored, the Hillsbrad Hills or the fertile lands of the Alterac Valley can be built by your choice. ”

"Hahaha, that's a good thing to say! With this promise, I'll bring the best boys from Ironforge to help you fight this battle!"

In fact, dwarves are rectal creatures, whoever treats them well, they will treat each other as brothers, but if someone plays tricks to deceive them, then I'm sorry, dwarves are still very grudgeful, whether it is a thunder spear, a copper whisker, a black iron or a brute hammer, they are all the same, they are the lord who will not give up without taking revenge, even if they can't take revenge for the time being, but the seeds of hatred will take root and sprout in their hearts.

Muladin's laughter caught the attention of the circle of people who were discussing the matter, and the old politicians looked a little gloomy as they revisited the "vase", except for Tirio who gave Adran an appreciative look on his face.

"The Eagle's Nest Mountain......" Edlan still thought a little.

But Muradin shook his head decisively, "It's not up to me to be the Lord over there, although they are closer to you, but we ...... Very unpleasant things have happened in the past, so, child, it's up to you to solve this matter yourself. ”

Edlan is more or less aware of the hidden dangers and disagreements left by the three-hammer battle between the dwarves so far, so the Brute Hammer dwarves estimate that he can't count on it for the time being, but he doesn't know if Uther will go to them for support?

Of course, Edlan can also pull out that he got a revelation in the Temple of Dragon's Sleep, and is determined to mobilize all mortal races to fight, but now the Burning Legion is far from appearing, so this is all nonsense, no one will believe his nonsense, and it is not easy to win over other races to fight together.

Eventually, after the old courtiers' endless "discussions" were interrupted by Tirio's reprimand, most agreed to let Kalia "lead" Lordaeron's refugee and exiled government south to the Stormwind Kingdom for help.

When the news of the fall of the Undead Fortress and the annihilation of the defenders arrived, Tirio was appointed as the new marshal of Lordaeron by Kalia in the name of the sole legitimate heir of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and traveled to the Kingdom of Stormwind as the leader of this army of refuge. Kalia's appointment is not bad, Tirio is prestigious, and he used to be a fair and powerful paladin, and he used to be a lord, and he has a good way of governing the place, with his words and deeds by Kalia's side, it is estimated that this princess, who is still a vase, will grow a lot during her refuge in the Stormwind Kingdom.

Muradin, on the other hand, would take some of his men westward, south from Lordamire, into the still safe realm of Dalaran, and then into the Alterac Valley to find the Thunderspear Dwarves, and then return to Ironforge to persuade his brother to send reinforcements.

As for Edlan, after expressing his willingness to stay in the territory and lead the people to continue the struggle, he was unexpectedly canonized as a general by Kalia on the spot, and was given the permission to destroy the undead by all the resistance forces in the Tirisfal Woodlands.

For this canonization, the people present have no opinion, after all, staying in this dangerous fallen area, no matter how high the official position is, no one envies, but there are many people who show sympathy in their eyes, thinking that his choice is obviously the price of stupidity, and they even feel that if this young baron decides to follow Princess Kalia and finally help her complete the great cause of recovering the country, like in fairy tales, during that period the two rubbed some kind of love and finally became a couple.

Although such a story is a fairy tale in itself, it is also full of legends, which is definitely the most popular content of the bards, and will become the most sought after theme of novelists for more than a decade......

But only Edlan himself knew that after Arthas left, the undead army of the Tirisfard Glade was not really strong, and for his own purposes, he had to keep his territory and crucify it to the Northlands.

P.S1: I don't know how old Kalia is, but the exact age of Kalia is only one year older than Arthas.
