Corpses, corpses everywhere.

There were the corpses of the orcs, the corpses of the human warriors, and of course the corpses of the nobles who had left them behind.

General Merrick Haas's longsword, which already had numerous notches, was already folded back into the hilt...... They won because the orcs were dead; At the same time, they also failed, because the king of Alterac also died in this war!

The soldiers, dragging their tired bodies, began to clean up the corpses on the battlefield.

"General, what should we do with the corpses of these orcs?" A soldier asked.

"Burn them and bury them!" The general was silent for a moment, then said, "Regardless of race, regardless of faction, they are the best warriors!" ”

The soldier nodded and took the order.

Haas could see that the orcs were leaving to protect someone; They fought desperately to block the slopes, and fought until the last man remained...... Even the most elite guards under their command can't show the same courage as them on the battlefield!

However, none of that matters, what matters is ...... The king is dead!

King Eden-Pirenoud, he was not a great king, and everyone often complained about him in private; But when his head rolled at Haas's feet, all Haas could feel was extremely intense pain and shame......

He hated why he hadn't arrived sooner, and if he had arrived ten minutes earlier, he might have had a chance to save the king; He hated the tribes even more, the abominable green-skinned monsters, who invaded his homeland, killed countless of his compatriots, and beheaded his king.

"Back to Alterac City!" He climbed on his horse and said in a deep voice: "Take the remains of the king and the nobles, and go home!" ”

……

The orange army, full of grief, returned to the city that was perched on the mountainside.

Duke Alex-Barov's face was very pale, although after examination by the priest, he did not appear to have any injuries on his body......

It must have been because of the fright, witnessing the death of so many companions, and then crawling out of the pile of corpses in a thrilling way; Haas felt that if he were an ordinary person, he might not be able to perform better than Duke Barov.

"Lord Duke, I think you need to rest!" Somewhat reluctant, General Haas turned around and said.

"No......" Duke Barov said with a straight face, "Alterac needs me now!" ”

Haas vaguely guessed the careful thoughts in the other party's heart, now that King Pirenod and Duke Facuressta are dead, Duke Barov has naturally become the aristocratic leader of the entire Alterac...... So in his heart, I'm afraid there will be some additional thoughts.

Haas didn't care about it, though, he had more important things to do.

Ignoring Duke Barov's insistence, the soldiers of Alterac moved the remains of the king, queen, and many nobles to the cemetery behind the church, where the Pirenod family had lived for generations.

This was followed by a small but serious funeral, which, despite the few remaining nobles such as Duke Barov, found this form too shabby, but at the insistence of General Haas, the funeral eventually proceeded.

Until the king's corpses are put to rest!

……

Almost a week later, almost all of the citizens of Alterac had black armbands on their cuffs, and the whole city was in a state of grief.

Merrick Haas summoned all the Alterac nobles, officers and soldiers, and many civilians to the square, where he would hold a grand memorial service......

"I'm Lieutenant General Merrick Haas in Alterac!" Haas, standing on the podium, looked a little tired, but his voice was full of determination:

"You may be able to see the blood on my body, but I don't hide it in any way, because it'...... It's all orc bloodstains, and I've kept this armor forever to remember the shame of a week ago! ”

General Haas continued, "On that afternoon just a week ago, in the Alterac Valley, we fought a desperate battle with the orcs, and the brave Alterac soldiers won that battle! General Haas paused.

The crowd did not celebrate the victory, nor did it cheer; Their expressions were as cold as those on General Haas's face.

"That day will always be remembered by the Alteracs, and it's not just that we defeated the orcs!" Haas endured the pain in his heart and roared hoarsely: "At the same time, our king, Aiden Pirenod, the king of Alterac, and the two hundred and sixty-four citizens of Alterac led by the Duke of Facurresta, all died at the hands of the orcs!" ”

Sadness suddenly spread through the crowd, even though most of them had already known the news...... I could vaguely hear a woman sobbing.

"This is a day of shame, a day that can never be forgotten...... General Haas continued:

"I do not want to put into words the exploits and greatness of King Eden-Pirenot, I need to emphasize that he died at the hands of the orcs! Death at the hands of the Horde! ”

"So I swear that the whole kingdom of Alterac will be at odds with the tribes, from the majestic Mount Alterac to Andohar to Danielsburg; We're going to kill all the mongrels who call themselves 'tribes' out of this world!" ”

"Kill the tribe!" The soldiers shouted involuntarily.

Haas's face showed a hint of relief, at least the boys of Alterac were not bloodless!

He shouted, "I declare that Alterac will now be at full war with the Horde; I will lead almost all of the Alterac army eastward into the Arathi Heights...... We no longer cower in the snowy mountains, waiting for the arrival of the tribes; We will take the initiative and we will not stop fighting until the last tooth is loosened, until the last drop of blood is shed, until the last man dies! ”

"Avenging our king......"

“…… Alterac doesn't believe in tears! ”

……

All of the Alterac soldiers and civilians were caught in the flames of anger and revenge, with the exception of one......

Duke Alex-Barov, has he contacted many people in the last week, including the remaining nobles, and the emissaries of the other kingdoms of the Alliance...... Just when he felt that he was almost ready, he didn't expect General Haas to give such an order.

Merrick Haas was the supreme leader of the Alterac Army, and after the death of the king, no one could shake his authority in the army, not even Barov.

He had to hurriedly find the door, and said excitedly to the other party: "General, you can't do this; What would Alterac do if you and your army left? If the tribe reappears here, we will have to be caught. ”

"Of course not, Lord Duke!" An imperceptible smile appeared on the human general's lips: "I have already written a letter to King Terenus of Lordaeron, and he will also send men to maintain the defense of the snowy mountains when the army of Alterac is on the march; Of course, at the same time, he will also fully assist in Alterac's revenge! ”

"Terenus!" Duke Barov suddenly felt a darkness in front of him......

The preparations I have made in the recent period may be worthless.
