"Arrogant and reckless, it is you who are talking about it! Originally, we could secretly complete the comprehensive encirclement of the tribe, but it was because of the unauthorized attack of a few of you that the alliance was in a very passive situation! It is because of the pride of a few of you that you underestimated the enemy, so that tens of thousands of brothers in the alliance stopped at Blade Mountain! ”

In the Alliance camp, Varian was furious when nine Alliance soldiers who had been beaten half-dead by the Horde were brought back. An army cannot do without military regulations, and the soldiers in front of them have openly disobeyed military orders and attacked without authorization, which has touched Varian's bottom line. He roared, but the audience fell silent. Waiting for the wrath of the Storm King.

"Marcus. General Josenner, tell me, what kind of punishment should be given to those who break the military rules and attack without permission? ”

Varian roared and turned to Marcus. General Josenner, these soldiers are his men.

I saw Marcus with a gloomy face, and said ashamedly-

"The penalty is caning, Your Majesty."

Several legionnaires, scarred all over their bodies, were immediately paralyzed with fright. They were tortured in the tribal camp, and they thought that Ares would come to save them, but they did not expect to return to the alliance camp and suffer such punishment...... Several soldiers were even ready to die. However, the priests in the legion will not let them die, this is just a punishment, in front of the whole army, to make an example.

"So what are you waiting for?"

Varian roared again.

Several elite guards of the King's Guard of Stormwind City suddenly walked out of the ranks. Without mercy or hesitation, they strode up to several Union soldiers, then set them up and tied them to the execution rack. And tore off their clothes. Despite their scarring, they were still being punished by the Alliance.

"Prepare ......"

"Proceed."

The torture officer shouted. Immediately, a loud sound of leather whips hitting their bodies sounded on the field, and several Alliance soldiers who were being tortured suddenly screamed loudly. There was silence all around, and the sound of every whip hitting the back echoed loudly in the execution ground, and it was also remembered in everyone's hearts.

That's the most severe warning, even if you are an officer-level person, even if you are a nobleman or a royal family in Stormwind, once you violate military law, no one can save you, even if you are rescued from the pile of dead, you will be punished. That's what Varian said he was trying to convey.

Ares and Sylvanas stood on the edge of the field, watching the scene coldly. This is the punishment that these Alliance soldiers should receive, because of the impulse to make the entire Alliance army pay for it, and nothing must be punished for these brainless soldiers.

The execution lasted a full ten minutes, and by the time the thirty lashes were over, each of the rescued Union soldiers was already dying. Today, this morning, they have received the most painful punishment of their lives. The flesh on his back was almost broken, and the long whip of torture was stained with the scarlet blood of several soldiers. The pain was so intense that the fighters nearly passed out. However, when the punishment was over, the priests of Stormwind rushed forward and used healing spells to save the lives of the soldiers.

"Brothers, all the warriors of Stormwind and the Alliance, this is the fate of not being ordered by the military. Alliance, a sacred and great organization, the reason why we have been invincible in previous battles is not because of our individual skills and bravery, but because of the strength of our team. We form different formations in front of different enemies to fight against powerful evil forces. It depends on strict military discipline. If we don't even want this tradition, then the army of the Alliance, the army of Stormwind, will be nothing! ”

"I know, all of you here, you hate the orcs, you hate the tribes. So did my father, King Lane, who was killed by the beasts during the First Orc War. Our kingdom, the Kingdom of Stormwind, also fell in the First Orc War, and the entire city was reduced to a sea of fire and ruins. When it comes to hatred, I hate orcs and tribes more than anyone else. However, hatred will not solve the problem. The reality is that if you don't focus on the Burning Legion, all of Azeroth will be destroyed. ”

After punishing a few Alliance soldiers, Varian stood up from his throne and spoke loudly to the full audience.

"One day, we will destroy the orcs and destroy the tribes. However, not today. One day, we will pay with our blood and slash the beasts that caused us harm. However, not today. ”

Standing in the crowd, Varian's speech was like a wake-up call that rang in everyone's hearts. Let those who are hot-headed recognize who is the real enemy of the moment. These words reminded Ares of the great heavens. In a word, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years...... Varian has a bit of that flavor right now.

……

"Varian, opinion of the Horde, they continue to defend the fortress, and when the demon army besieges the fortress again, we will attack the Burning Legion from behind."

After his speech, Varian walked into the military hall with Marcus and Boval. Here, Ares and Illidan, Sylvanas, Weenlesa, Furstad, and Ronin have been waiting for a long time. The renewed cooperation with the tribe seems to have taken shape. Although there are a hundred reluctances on both sides, the threat of the demon is in front of them and they have to cooperate again. It's like the Angela insect plague back then.

"Defend the fortress?"

"Yes."

"Damn, cunning horde, they want to stay inside the camp, reduce casualties, and let us fight outside."

Faced with the Horde's battle plan, Varian expressed his deep dissatisfaction. However, Ares has his own opinion-

At first glance, it looks like this, but it's not always like that. From an objective point of view, the Horde had strong fortifications in the valley, and we did not, it took a long time to build a fully functional fortress, and the current situation is that we do not have this time. It's not entirely unfair to let demons attack the Horde's strongholds, and we're taking the initiative. Because in this battle plan, the tribe is the first to strike. They take the initial risk. ”

"Secondly, there is another reason why I agree with this plan, now, the legion led by Kael'thas only knows about the existence of the Horde, but does not know that we have also reached Blade Mountain. Their scouts were stopped by the Horde's wolves. Kael'thas probably thought we were in the swamp at this time. And we can take advantage of this opportunity to take him by surprise, which is equivalent to us being in the shadows and the enemy in the light. ”

Ares continued.
