Chapter 251: Food Crisis
"Could it be that those demons and undead have sneaked to the north?" Su Chen asked with some concern.
"No, those demons haven't come, they lack ships, and it won't be easy to cross the sea and go north, but ...... Our biggest crisis now is how to resettle these refugees, and Kurtilas has no more food to spare. "Dai Lin. Proudmore sighed.
"Food ......" Su Chen couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he immediately understood Dai Lin. Why did Prodmore keep frowning?
"In the past, in order to support Lordaeron against the undead scourge, we have transported almost all the food, but now a large number of refugees are coming from the south, we can no longer have food to supply these refugees, and now that the cold winter is coming, if there is no food supply, a heavy snowfall, I don't know how many people will freeze to death." DAI Lin. Proudmore spread his hands, a bitter expression on his face.
Su Chen couldn't help frowning when he heard this, as the human kingdom encountered crises one after another, the food problem was finally completely exposed.
Agriculture in Azeroth was already not very developed, and the fragile food supply finally collapsed completely under the catastrophe of successive large-scale wars.
However, it is still the beginning of winter, and it is estimated that there will not be much grain harvest in the next few months, so we can only try to find enough grain to survive this winter.
However, it is not easy to find food again, there is no way to do it in the eastern continent, the main force here is the human kingdom, and in addition, only the dwarven kingdom is relatively strong.
However, the dwarves who like to mine and mine iron have not always been good at agriculture, and most of the time they need to find humans to buy food.
As for Kalimdor in the west, it is still just beginning to be developed and barely able to sustain itself, while the Night Elves are rarely engaged in agricultural production, relying on the vast forests of Ashenvale and Mount Hyjal for food to survive. Basically, it cannot be supplied to outsiders.
"What's going on at Fort Riptide, can they provide some food?" Su Chen asked.
DAI Lin. Proudmore smiled wryly and shook his head, "I've been looking for them a long time ago, you should know that Riptide Fort has long since fallen, there has been a lack of population, and the production of food is also low. Now the last bit of food is provided by them, and it is the last food they collect from the civilian population. ”
Su Chen couldn't help but feel depressed, the food crisis in this human kingdom seemed to be more troublesome than the war against the Burning Legion.
"We can't watch civilians die of cold and starvation, now we have to go to Gilneth to buy some food, I have a solution to the werewolf curse in my hand, I can exchange it with them, if those guys are still so stubborn, I don't mind letting my army tear down that wall." Su Chen hesitated for a moment and then gritted his teeth and said.
Today, only Gilneth is estimated to be able to provide some food, but Gilneth is not very powerful. It is estimated that it will only alleviate some of the food crisis.
"Well, I can get all the boats in full force to fish, and I should be able to provide some food." DAI Lin. Proudmore smiled wryly.
It is indeed very embarrassing to have an admiral lead a large number of ocean-going warships to fish.
"I can have people go to the goblins and see if they can get food, but the goblins are too greedy and will probably take the opportunity to ask for a high price." Su Chen frowned.
"I can only suffer some losses temporarily, if the goblins really have food, even if it is a high price, I have to buy some. However, it is not easy to get to Kozan Island, which is a goblin. "Dai Lin. Proudmore sighed as he looked at the map on the table.
It was a large, hand-drawn map, of which only the Eastern Kingdom was drawn in more detail. Northrend in the north and Kalimdor in the west have only a rough outline, but many small islands in the Endless Sea have been marked and a large number of routes have been mapped.
Su Chen also looked at the map curiously, the mapping technology of the world of Azeroth was obviously not good, this map looked quite rudimentary, and even the proportions were wrong.
But when his eyes searched for the location of Nakozan Island. But inexplicably, I feel as if something has been forgotten by myself.
"......There seems to be something missing on this map," Su Chen thought secretly, and began to recall the map in the Warcraft game in his heart.
When his gaze fell from the north of the map to the south, he couldn't help frowning, and finally realized why he was always a little unaccustomed to reading this map, it was because there was still a continent that had not been drawn on this map!
"That's right. And the continent of Pandaria! Su Chen was happy in his heart, the Valley of the Four Winds in Pandaria was a treasure land for grain production, and he could go to those panda people for help.
Although Pandaria was shrouded in fog, the fog did not begin to dissipate until the cataclysm caused by Deathwing, but since the fog was artificially generated, it should be somewhat similar to the magic enchantment, at most, the power with some domain rules makes it difficult for ordinary people to approach, and with the help of the brain, the last thing that is not afraid is those power rules and fields, as long as it takes some time and energy, the brain can completely crack those rules.
However, if you do so, you will have to go there yourself, and you will not be able to deal with the Dark Gate.
"How powerful are those demons in the South? Can I still get information about the Cursed Lands? Su Chen frowned and asked, he was in great need of specific information now.
"The demons that came out of the Dark Gate are definitely not as strong as the last Burning Legion, and there are very few demons that can fly, otherwise the refugees will not be able to escape at all. Vortagan has begun to rebuild Stormwind's army in the area of Red Ridge Mountain, and it is said that his Stormwind Assassin Regiment, MI7, has not suffered much damage in this war, and it is estimated that the Assassins are still gathering intelligence in the area of the Cursed Lands. "Dai Lin. Proudmore said.
"MI7 ......" Su Chen frowned, he was naturally no stranger to this organization, in fact, this group of assassins who were originally used to deal with some dark affairs in Stormwind City played a great role in the war, so much so that in the history of Warcraft, MI7 became more and more powerful, and participated in almost all the major battles.
"Maybe I should raise an intelligence force like this." Su Chen thought secretly, but Lordaeron is most famous for a large number of knights and warriors, and there are few professions such as assassins and thieves, and now after experiencing the war with the undead natural disaster, the scale of paladins has reached an unprecedented peak.
