The battle outside the town of Andorhar was finally over, and as the townspeople were about to welcome the warriors who had saved them from their perils, Arthas and the knights of the Silver Hand galloped into the city.

"Leave fifty people to escort these people to the town of Brill for refuge, Captain Farek is led by you, after the escort mission is completed, you can join the follow-up infantry troops, and let everyone bring as much warm clothes and food as possible, other belongings and other things, just stay at home, those undead will not rob any gold, silver and jewelry." ”

Arthas issued orders quickly and efficiently, knowing full well that this small victory was of no importance to the larger picture, and that it was more important to arrange for the people of Lordaeron to take refuge.

After all, if the undead want to expand, they usually have to start with the living, and there are many towns and villages like Andorhar east of Lordaeron, and he must rush to the rescue as soon as possible, rather than enjoy this insignificant victory here.

The people of Andorhar panicked in the face of Arthas's actions, but this time Arthas could no longer reassure them with a few short words.

The people have seen the menacing enemy and will leave the homeland of Andoral for the second time, and the only way to appease this unrest is to destroy the undead and let them return home.

Arthas knew exactly what he had to do at this time, and after arranging everything and supplying him a little, he and Uther continued their journey with the remaining Knights of the Silver Hand.

The second concentration of Lordaeron to the east of the town of Andorhar is in the county of Talon not far to the east, and after the first undead cataclysm, that village has received the attention of Arthas, and can be said to be a model for the rebuilding of the town of Lordaeron Kingdom.

Paladin David Croft and Captain of the garrison Joseph Reggiepad, who were born in Talon County, have also become household names in Lordaeron, recommended by Sir Lothar and presented to them by Arthas himself with the Warrior Badge for their glory.

They were the heroes that the country needed in this period, and Arthas didn't want the hero he had worked so hard to build to have an accident in this second Hooccalypse of the Dead, which would be an immeasurable blow to people's hearts.

Thankfully, the town's defenses were far outstanding, and Arthas only hoped that it would be like the town of Andohar, threatened by low-level undead at best.

In this way, the Knights of the Silver Hand hurried towards Talon County, and unexpectedly, the town was so calm that they didn't even know that the undead had once again appeared in Lordaeron's territory.

Upon learning of this, Arthas immediately approached Paladin Davi and Captain Joseph, both of whom wrote their surprise all over their faces when they learned that the town of Andorhar had almost fallen to the undead again.

"Your Royal Highness, I am sure that there are absolutely no undead passing through the avenues and forests outside our town, and the Crown of Glory outpost has never conveyed to us any information about the discovery of the enemy, if there are any undead, it must not be from the east side!"

Arthas looked at Uther, and his mentor looked as puzzled as he was.

"And where did the spirits of Andorhar come from?"

Alsace couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he stopped thinking about it, and it was great news that the town of Talon was okay, which would shorten the time it would take him to arrive in Stratholme by several days.

However, there is still a question, that is, what should the people of Talonshire do now?

Although the source of the undead who attacked the town of Andorhar is unknown, it is sufficient evidence that the territory of the Kingdom of Lordaeron east of the forest of Tirisfal is no longer safe.

Arthas couldn't have allowed these Lordaeron people to sit still and die, he had to either continue to send men to escort them, or he had to think of something else!

In fact, Arthas had already thought of this when he was on his way, and although he had an idea in his mind, he had to make a trade-off in everything, and his idea was no exception.

"We can concentrate the men of the Stratholme precinct and put everyone together to defend, and the best place to defend is undoubtedly the hand of Tyre further east.

It is the birthplace of paladins, there are the most paladins in the station, and the power of the holy light is also the strongest, and it is the most unlikely place to be captured by the undead except for the royal city of Lordaeron!"

"However, if that were to happen, the troops would have to escort the people slowly, and the support for Stratholme would have to drag on for at least three days, and no one would have any hope that Lothar and the others would die after three days. ”

Arthas had already made up his mind at this point, and nothing seemed to him more important than the people, and Sir Lothar certainly knew this better than he did.

And Arthas felt that if he was trapped in Stratholme, he would gladly accept the most terrible fate if he knew that his trap could buy a safe time for the people to evacuate!

Arthas thought about it for a long time, but he felt awkwardly that he was making excuses for himself, so he decided to talk to Tulayan about his decision and see how he reacted.

"Your Royal Highness, please give priority to the safety of the people, I think if it were Marshal Lothar, he would definitely say so!"

After hearing Alsace's decision, Tulayan gave his own reply almost without hesitation, and the firm conviction in his tone could not help but make Alsace feel full of admiration.

"A paladin who can pick up a noble sword," Arthas thought, his eyes flashing over the sword in Tulayan's arms, and a thought could not help but arise in his heart.

"Legend has it that this sword only recognizes those who have a noble character, I wonder if I can pick it up?"

Arthas wanted to give a self-affirming answer, but the more he did, the more weak he became, and perhaps even if he had the opportunity to get the sword, he would not do it, because as the crown prince, he could not risk being labelled as an "unnoble man".

Arthas shook his head at the thought of this, dispelling the ridiculous thoughts in his heart.

"Now that you've made up your mind, let's do it now!"

The people of Talon began to pack their belongings, and the pain of having to leave their homes again was palpable, and Alsace was distressed, helpless, and angry when he saw it.

"It's none of your fault, kid. ”

Noticing Arthas's complicated expression, Uther immediately opened his mouth to comfort, but his comfort had no effect, and Arthas replied with a bitter face:

"But as the crown prince, I can't get out of it!"

Arthas said this, and there was a wonderful light in his eyes, a fire that burned in his heart, and the flame burned so fiercely that the young prince of Lordaeron felt only karmic and miserable.

"Sometimes I wish I could sit in a 'cooler' position. ”
