Chapter 487: CallMeMayBe
Spring is not a marching day,
The summer is scorching and bitter,
Autumn is cool when traveling,
Winter is bitterly cold, and it's time to sleep.
Bring it to next spring,
Let's do it again!
The soldiers are all good soldiers, and the old generals are still good generals, but what's the matter with these little guys who are stuffed in and mixed with meritorious deeds?
After only walking for more than ten days, the scenery of the Arashi Plateau has not been tired of seeing, and it has been bitter for days.
Carlos himself is only in his early twenties, and there is no logical problem with licking his face and saying that he is a young generation. But looking at those aristocratic young people who were going to die or live, they couldn't help but feel the emotion of the alliance pill.
This is a product of a compromise in the power struggle.
The establishment of a kingdom requires the joint efforts of a generation or even several generations.
Reviving a kingdom is even more difficult than building one.
The old father-in-law, Terenus, is also a believer, and he lived up to Lothar's entrustment and forcibly restored the young Varian to the throne.
No matter what Tyrenus's own plans are, the matter itself is very positive, and even the political enemies who secretly want Terenus to die immediately can only give a thumbs up and say a word of righteousness.
But righteousness comes at a price.
Varian went from having nothing to wearing a crown on his head and paid for the loss of Anduin. The price of Lothar.
Terenus pacified and diverted the nobles of the country, reconciled the divisions of the alliance, and inevitably ceded the interests of Stormwind.
And Carlos wants to have sufficient logistical supplies, and if he wants to have a steady stream of soldiers, he must put up with other people mixing sand in the army.
Anyway, the destination of these little ones is Lakeside Town, which is the Elwyn Forest, and their destination is the Dark Swamp, which is the Dark Gate.
If you endure it, cats and dogs will still have lice, and you ...... I confessed.
Since adolescence, Carlos's life has been mixed with war, and he doesn't know where to start, and he is already very uncomfortable with the pretentious way of doing things of the middle and lower class aristocracy.
Knowing that there are no useless people, only misplaced waste, but Carlos's patience for these guys who can't even stand the pain of the march is constantly decreasing.
Lao Tzu is still riding a horse as a king, and you don't like to shake your butt when you sit in the car?
After a long month, the vanguard of the Alliance finally crossed the Arathi Plateau, the birthplace of humanity, and crossed the Arathi Empire, a model of peace between humans and dwarves during the Arathso Empire, and the spectacular bridge across the sea, to reach the wetlands again.
This expedition was different from the last one, the roads in the wetlands had been repaired, and it was much better than the embarrassment of Sir Lothar when he arrived, fighting the orcs and guarding against the swamp creatures.
The old road is revisited, but the mood has changed.
I have to praise the orcs for being a tenacious race, after the rout of the main body, the scattered orcs are still lurking in the wilderness, from Anweimar to Danmoro, behind the calm is the repeated encirclement and suppression of the alliance's 20,000 troops.
If these troops were to be transferred to the Dark Gate, Tulayan might not need support.
But it couldn't be done, and even Carlos allocated 5,000 men for rotation, so that the long-fighting clearance troops could rest.
Without a high-intensity clean-up operation, Ironforge's dwarven allies will not be able to gather resources and activate their war machines.
By the time they arrived at Ironforge, the newcomers had finally experienced war and had never gone away.
After more than two years, the gnomes finally restarted the assembly line operation of the machine factory in the Iron Furnace Castle.
Dwarf technology, shocking.
The gnomes who escaped from the catastrophe of Nomorigen, led by the master craftsmen, relied on manual work to reproduce the industrial machine and carry out continuous multiplication operations, turning the original dwarf settlement area into a veritable industrial area. Even with Carlos and the Lordaeron nations poaching people, three new siege tank lines and five aircraft production lines were built for Ironforge.
While mourning the tragedy of Nomorigan, Carlos thought with some disrespect that it was also this war that allowed the alliance to see the powerful scientific and technological power of the gnomes.
Ironforge has long been freed from the dilemma of being blockaded by the orc tribes, but the long-term blockade has consumed a large amount of inventory of the copperbeard dwarves, and just two years is not enough to restore the prosperity of Ironforge Castle.
At least McGoney hasn't lifted the ban on alcohol prohibition.
Unlike the majesty of Lordaeron, Ironforge shocked everyone who saw her for the first time with an atmosphere unique to the dwarves.
The vanguard brought by Carlos had little effect on Ironforge, and this massive fortress of war showed the Alliance how powerful she was.
Rejecting a public invitation, McGoney feasted at a private table while pouring wine into his stomach.
"Hey, it's fun. Now that there is just enough food to eat, there will be a famine to make wine, and I will die of hunger. ”
The king of Ironforge was a man who wanted to be upright, and he drank the wine that Carlos had brought, and he couldn't stop praising his buddy for being righteous enough.
Reunited after a long absence, there is not much calculation of interests between comrades-in-arms.
Carlos ate his dinner nonchalantly, his main focus on listening to Magni's report on the front.
After all, Lordaeron and Alwyn are separated by a Baladine bay.
"Blackstone Mountain has been quiet lately. Although the real intelligence inside can't be obtained, but from the perspective of intelligence analysis, the Black Dragon Legion has won, the Black Iron Dwarves have suffered heavy casualties, and they have been fully contracted, and now it is much safer to cross the Black Rock Mountain than before. Hey, my poor Amore, when the war is over, Daddy will send for you. ”
When Carlos heard this, he couldn't help but smack his lips.
Magni's statement that he sent someone to find his daughter after the war is over certainly does not mean that he is indifferent now. Amola and Magni don't have a good relationship, Ironforge is a dwarf, and Amore, who yearns for freedom, can't stand the fact that Magni, the loving father of steel, has run away from home is basically equivalent to an open secret.
Magni's so-called search for his daughter after the war is a big fanfare.
Fatherly Love...... It's like steel.
After thinking about it, Carlos decided to pretend that he didn't know anything.
"Let's talk about the front line, Tulayan has stored a ~~~~~ big pile of fire oil, and that little guy is really going to burn a path in the dark swamp."
Magni uses exaggerated body language to speak.
"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, can you tell me about the Dark Swamp?"
Carlos asked his concerns.
"Dark swamp, there's nothing to say, as the name suggests, dark swamp. Our scouts couldn't go any further, so they had to follow the hard ground of the mountains. But the orcs' Stoned fortress is stuck on the road again. So Tulayan was not ready to attack, the damage was too great. He was going to open a path directly in the dark swamp. It's very thoughtful, but it's very difficult, and I'm not very optimistic. ”
Saying that he was not optimistic, Magni still described the various experiences on the front line in the days when Carlos was away.
Suffering, perseverance, dedication, sacrifice, ordinary and great.
Carlos accompanied Magni to drink wine and eat meat, while quietly watching the dwarf king blow.
With a smile on his lips.
