There were originally 12,000 civilians in the Western Wilderness, and this time Vanessa brought back more than 5,000 people from the north, and with the civilians who migrated from various places during this time, the population of the Western Wilderness officially reached 20,000.

It's not comparable to its heyday, but it's already a lot more lively than when Vanessa first came through.

With a fleet to trade with the surrounding areas, with its own armed forces, with a lot of arable land, mines, and money, the problem of poverty in the western wilderness will soon be solved.

At this time, Vanessa's troops were divided into several parts.

The People's Army of the Western Wilderness still dominated, and this force was originally 1,000 men, and then Brother Nimez continued to train recruits, and at this time there were 700 men stationed at Sentinel Ridge, 700 at Raven Ridge, and more than 600 troops used by the old knights to assist Lakeside Town, for a total of more than 2,000 men.

The werewolves from Gilness were assigned to Vanessa as their direct subordinates, and more than 300 of them were unwilling to be soldiers, Vanessa also arranged land for them, and the remaining more than 800 werewolves formed the Gilness Brigade.

In addition, there are more than 500 Defia Brotherhood thieves who do not want to join the army, but also do not want to be farmers, and it is certainly not okay for an army to be full of thieves, but it is not good for an army to be without thieves.

There is no need to abandon her own merits, Vanessa reorganized the more than 500 thieves according to the specifications of MI7 in the Stormwind Kingdom, this force belongs to the Brotherhood's descendant force, and is responsible for reconnaissance, espionage and various espionage work in peacetime.

The last force was the newly arrived Lordaeron civilians, most of whom were young and vigorous youths, and all of them had been militarized by the Scarlet Crusaders, and were not inferior to the People's Army of the Wild West in terms of military skills alone.

More than a thousand of them were young men who did not want to farm, they wanted to continue fighting, and in order to facilitate the work under the banner of Lordaeron's restoration, Vanessa organized them into a separate army.

Initially, it was discussed with Jialia that they were going to call this army the Lordaeron Restoration Army, but Jialia objected to the name.

From her point of view, whether Lordaeron can return to the country is not the most urgent issue, and Vanessa also feels that the name of the Restoration Army is too big, and it is easy to attract hatred.

It is politically correct to scare the undead, and now they want to shake hands with Arthas, and make peace with Sylvanas, and people will definitely not believe it.

Therefore, the undead must be their enemies, but those who are not the undead need to be considered.

Scarlet Crusaders, Silver Dawn, many of these resistance groups are the nobles of the original Lordaeron, and now if Ming Huanghuang plays the banner of recovering the country, what will these organizations do?

Vanessa finally decided that the political slogan should still be shouted, but in terms of army building, the big goal of restoring the country was downplayed, and it was changed to a small goal with the people's revenge on the undead.

Avengers! From this day forward, all Lordaeron civilians are Avengers! Vanessa officially named this army the Red Revenge Army! Abbreviation......

In addition to these main battle forces, the fleet also needs at least a thousand sailors, and counting the men she left behind in Shadowfang Castle and Liberty Town in the north, she can now mobilize more than 6,000 troops.

But just as the Stormwind Kingdom obviously has more than 100,000 troops, but there are always insufficient troops at critical moments, Vanessa's territory has become larger, and the mobile forces in her hands are also slightly insufficient.

The fleet, the Northern Shadow Fang Castle, and the forces of Liberty Town are basically immobile, and the only mobile forces are these people in the Western Wilderness.

Farming or expanding the army first? Vanessa chose the former, anyway, with the Storm Kingdom in front and an armed force of six thousand people in her hands, she was enough to protect herself.

Many civilians have acquired their own land, the enthusiasm for labor is very high, the land is cultivated, the fields are opened, the canals are dug, and the weather in November, even in the south, is getting colder, it is too late to grow food, and only some winter crops can be planted.

From time to time, Vanessa arranged for some people to work in Stormwind City to contribute to the construction of the Holy Light.

November of the 25th year of the Black Gate passed slowly.

......

"Lieutenant Thorne, have you gotten used to it lately?" Vanessa asked the werewolf with a smile.

The girl didn't want to be treasonous, she didn't want to betray the king, even if the king's actions were really chilling, she didn't want to do anything bad to Gilneth.

At the end of November, Vanessa's fleet exchanged weapons and supplies from the Scarlet Crusaders for a group of civilians, and the lieutenant was also piggybacking on her as she passed through Gilneth.

Vanessa gives the lieutenant a brand new job.

If you're loyal to Gilneth, you're not going to be loyal to the Stormwind Kingdom, right? Go and be your eyes and ears in the palace.

Lieutenant Thorne happily accepted the order this time, there was no peace on the human side before the orc invasion, the countries fought each other, there were no fewer dead, my hero, his enemy, she did nothing in the Stormwind Kingdom, she had no psychological burden.

With a wave of Vanessa's hand, Lieutenant Thorne and her two werewolf companions entered the royal palace of the Stormwind Kingdom as guards.

Now this palace is full of heroes, namely dragonmen, cultists, orcs, and necromancers, and three more werewolves have been mixed in!

Everyone is human on the surface, they should patrol and patrol, they should train and train, everyone greets each other with a smile and a smile, but in fact, except for the little king, there is no real human being!

Lieutenant Thorne would sometimes take the opportunity to go out of the palace to report to Vanessa, or pass on some information in the passing moment.

Today she also passed a note to Vanessa, and the two of them staggered by, and barely two steps out of the house, Lieutenant Thorne was stopped.

"Hi...... This, this is for you! "The middle-aged architect, who has a close friendship with Dafan. Alexton said with a large bouquet of flowers in his arms, a little apprehensive.

This otaku didn't know what was going on, and he fell in love with Lieutenant Thorne, who had a tough style and didn't smile.

From their experiences to their respective professions, to their environments and living habits, they have nothing in common except that they can have a relationship with Vanessa.

It's just that the two of them are quite eye-catching, and they come and go, and they have a little meaning.

Originally, there was resistance to the Brotherhood's return to Stormwind, but after seeing Lieutenant Thorne, the middle-aged architect never raised any objections.

It can be said that men are very witty in this regard, even if they usually only care about their own buildings, the middle-aged architect at this time still makes the most of the conditions around him, and he often wanders around Vanessa, just looking for an opportunity to meet Lieutenant Thorne.

Vanessa did not encourage their relationship, but did not object to it, according to the old man of the brotherhood, the middle-aged architect's former lover was Da Fan's sister, Vanessa's cheap aunt, but unfortunately that aunt died, and now he can find new feelings, which is also a good thing.
