Chapter 363: Dancing with Dragons (13)
Power is truth. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
No matter how much the Virgin and Daughter's watches blow, it cannot change the fact that the white lotus of peace grows in the quagmire of violence.
Carlos, as a synonym for the feudal society of the human race in Alterac, traveled thousands of miles from Lordaeron to the Scorching Canyon to fight for the Black Iron Dwarves, is it to implement the justice of world peace?
Naive.
It's for the money!
Converging with the army, reinforcements from Ironforge brought the latest news -- Lothar arrived.
After a long period of bargaining, the behemoth known as the Alliance finally united its will once again, Anduin. Lothar and his army had arrived at the port of Minethil ten days earlier, accompanied by Quel'Thalas's fleet.
Carlos knew that the remnants of the orcs in the wetlands were finished, and those greenskins might be able to fight against Alterac, against the kingdom of Lordaeron, and against any human kingdom in the Northlands, but they would definitely not be the opponents of the Alliance's armies.
Therefore, there is not much time left for yourself.
In the final analysis, it is because Alterac is a small country with a weak foundation, and the long war has worn out the country's heritage, and even the continuation of the Alterac Kingdom depends on the blood transfusion of the Barov family. Although Carlos has always maintained a strong attitude in front of outsiders, but cutting open the skin of the all-out war ****** and removing the layer of flesh of the 100,000 army, Alterac's bones are as crisp as potato chips.
Artifact?
Don't make a fuss, this is Azeroth, Titan relics are thrown everywhere, elves are not as good as dogs, not to mention the good things that have been made by the human world for so many years of exploration (digging graves) and technological innovation (Xia Ji Baji), let's just say that in the next few decades, I don't know where the equipment with yellow characters under the attribute panel can be expected.
If I am lucky, I will not be happy, and it will not hurt.
The main reason for Carlos to put down his body and make extra money is money, materials, and domestic pressure from far away in Lordaeron.
Thorth, Mithril, gold, and silver are all good things, and after the trade with the Stormwind Kingdom and Ironforge was interrupted, the prices of these commodities in the Lordaeron Kingdom were actually high. Ruby, citrine, amethyst, green emerald, and the Great Diamond of Azeroth, all of which are indispensable to the craft of forging and enchantment, have been transformed from circulating goods into strategic reserves.
Not surprisingly, these can now be sold for a lot of money in Lordaeron, and there is a proper seller's market, and there is no market for it.
So when Carlos slandered the Thorsilver Brotherhood without grace and prepared a vote for the **** mother, even the most upright paladin did not raise any objections.
After all, the melting pot battle was inexplicable, and the Brotherhood of Thorsilver would do things a little inauthentically.
So, amid laughter, the Coalition sergeants of Love and Justice discussed with each other the techniques needed to impose sanctions on the Thyragins Brotherhood.
During the march, dozens of Black Iron Dwarf camps loyal to Darkfurnace were sacked.
Soldiers can fight in confusion, generals can march for unknown reasons, but as a commander-in-chief, Carlos can't be confused.
Although after the combined forces, this army of more than 10,000 people is a huge force that cannot be ignored in the Scorching Canyon region. However, the hasty march and the unstable logistics did not mean that Carlos had the confidence to plow the hostile forces of the scorching canyon. Coalition forces, good is good in a union, bad is bad in a union, more than 10,000 troops, more than half are Iron Fort dwarves, it doesn't matter if you fight a good battle, who should go to fight a tough battle?
Therefore, although some subordinates proposed that the soldiers should be fast, we should blitz the Seyin sentry post, pretend to be forced and run, no, just grab a ticket and leave. However, Carlos still made a big splash all the way through. There is no shortage of consideration given to the time given to the Thor Silver Brotherhood to think and react.
There are still three days to go from the Seyin outpost. During the march of more than ten days, the Black Iron Dwarves did not make any major moves except for a small group of reconnaissance troops, the water supply site was not poisoned, and there was no garrison at the critical level, as if this combined army of dwarves and humans was just a special effect, a phantom, and it was as if Carlos did not exist.
What's even more exaggerated is that the humans who stayed behind at the Seyin Outpost were able to send the information down unimpeded, and there were no Black Iron Dwarves to stop them.
"Is this like going to war? I can't understand it. ”
"If you don't understand it, everyone has entered the unknown territory and relied on strength to speak."
Ignoring his subordinates, Carlos waited patiently for news. Sylvie. Morgan left the army seven days ago, and she didn't explain to Carlos what she was going to do, just told Carlos to wait for news from her.
For all these reasons, Carlos delayed the three-day journey by another week.
The army was integrated, the siege equipment was also complete, and with an order, more than 10,000 sturdy men could go up the mountain to grab food.
However, in the face of such a situation, the Seyin sentry still did not react at all.
This puzzled and surprised Carlos.
When Zhuge Qin Demon fought against Sima Yi, he also performed a reverse R flash stunt, which version of the empty city plan these guys from the Thayin Brotherhood played.
There are constantly mercenaries on the mountain who secretly send envoys to contact Carlos, and the meaning is similar -- the king has set the dwarf day in the north, and the pioneer who leads the way must have me.
Food and grass were still abundant, and no one dared to question Carlos's decision with his great military exploits, and the army was blocked under the Seyin outpost, eating, drinking, and fighting every day.
And just like that, before Carlos's patience ran out, Sylvie. Morgan returned to Carlos.
"We'd better go."
Stepping back, Sylvie whispered to Carlos.
"What do you mean?"
Carlos couldn't help but frown.
"The Black Iron Dwarves have won, or their king Thorrisen Jr. has won, and everyone else is a loser except him."
"Can you elaborate on that?"
Although Carlos had a hunch that there must be a hidden meaning behind this inexplicable action, he still had a chill behind him when he really listened to Sylvie one by one.
"Remember a guy named Tobiang? The vanguard of the Fallen King Faction, the godson of the Fire Elemental Legion. There is news that he died in his own home. ”
"Huh?"
Carlos snorted, as if he had some understanding.
"On the day we retreated, we heard that Darkfurnace actually sent four legions to guard the ceremonial grounds. And after we attacked, the dwarves also asked for help, and at least two armies of the black iron dwarves rushed over to reinforce them. ”
"But none of us met it."
"That's right, but the battle report inside the Black Iron Dwarves, along with the two troops that rushed to reinforce them, a total of three legions have been wiped out."
"Oh, that's interesting, I swear I didn't do it."
Carlos raised three fingers and swore an oath, his face full of unspeakable meaning.
"It was also on that day that a large-scale conflict broke out in Black Rock Mountain, Black Dragon, and Dwarf."
"I originally thought that sooner or later, the human race that fought openly and secretly would be replaced by a more united race, but after seeing more and seeing more widely, I realized that it is not unreasonable for human beings to develop from a corner of the Arathi Heights to the current domination of the Eastern Continent."
"Well, behind all the signs, the shadow points to a guy."
"Dagran. Thorrisen. ”
When the two of them said the name in unison, the candlelight was blown by the wind, and the figure reflected on the tarpaulin was as abominable as a ghost.
"Well, let's not talk about the intrigues of the Black Iron Dwarves, let's talk about our compensation."
"The life contract has been dissolved."
"We should ...... Yes? ”
Carlos didn't react for a moment.
"The contract of life is broken."
"This ...... What do you mean? ”
It means that the contract has been made. The artifact is back in the hands of the Thor Silver Brotherhood. ”
"Hahaha, that's interesting, when."
"Five days ago."
So, Carlos, who felt that he had been played, finally blew the horn of the general attack early the next morning.
If the Thorsilver Brotherhood tried to resist, such a precipitous terrain would eventually cause a lot of casualties on the coalition forces.
However, the whole process of offensive operations is more like a mountain climb.
When the army rushed to the Seryin outpost, they found that the Black Iron Dwarves who had been doing their duty the night before had disappeared without a trace.
"Your Majesty, there is a letter."
Carlos took the letters that the soldiers had found.
"Respected human king, the Brotherhood of Thorsilver is also a victim, the materials in the treasury should be regarded as compensation, if Your Majesty still remembers the friendship of fighting side by side, please keep the sentry itself, do not destroy it, the Brotherhood will have a thanks."
Although the harvest was fruitful, a frustration that had no end or end lingered in Carlos's mind for a long time.
In the end, Carlos did not give the order to destroy the Thuryin outpost, knowing that there were still huge underground buildings underneath this place, and simply destroying the above-ground buildings was just a useless vent of anger.
It's just that the materials left by the Thorsilver Brotherhood to Carlos are already a windfall, and looking at the refined and refined Thorsilver ingots, Carlos's whole person is happy.
The looting took place over two days.
Carlos believed that if he wanted to, another search would surely reveal something more, but a war report ruined his good mood.
"What's the matter, Carlos, I don't see anything wrong."
Sylvie. Morgan took the battle report and looked at it, but didn't find anything unusual, so he asked directly.
"It's unremarkable, it's about people. We have to go. ”
Carlos crumpled the report and put it in his pocket.
[September 15, Anduin. Marshal Lothar received the leaders of the remnants of Stormwind at the Minethil Harbor Fortress. There are five forces that can be identified by flags, badges, and other objects, and a number of people whose identities have not been seen. The content of the meetings is not detailed, but they are often about nine hours. After the meeting, Anduin. Lothar, in his capacity as marshal of the Union, publicly praised the merits of the participants. A follow-up investigation revealed that most of the remaining nobles in Stormwind had raised donations in exchange for the renewed trust of the Wryon royal family, with the Presto family providing an unknown amount of weapons and armor.
