Twenty-fifth year after the end of the Battle of Argus.

After twenty-five years of recuperation and the threat of monsters in the wild, the population of the Stormwind Kingdom has more than doubled to five million.

In addition to the population, the industrialization of the Stormwind Kingdom has long been completed, the railways have connected the entire kingdom, every household has used electrical appliances, enjoyed the original treatment of Nomorigen, and even with the advantage of the number of engineers, the kingdom's technology has the momentum to catch up with the gnomes.

Recently, engineers have completed a series of technologies such as microcomputers and magic networks, and it is foreseeable that soon the Kingdom of Storm and even the entire Eastern Kingdom will enter the information age.

And the problem of professional degradation, which Claudia was worried about at first, did exist at first.

But by the tenth year, Varian couldn't stand the fact that the number of qualified professionals had dropped dramatically, and that a veteran could beat ten recruits.

He ordered that the salaries of the Pros be raised again, and that all the apprentices of the Proté Academy had to go to the Outlands for three months a year to hunt enough monsters to return to Azeroth.

Yes, the Outlands have not been liberated, they are still in crisis, and every year a large number of demons and void creatures descend on the Outlands without the protection of the planet, wreaking havoc there, and the Facelesss, Shadow Wolves, and Void Monsters under Claudia's command have finally retreated to the Outlands.

In this case, the apprentices who go to the Outlands every year to fight are killed and injured a lot, but this also makes these apprentices grow up quickly, although there are many people who protest against this kind of behavior that hurts people and money, but the Stormwind Kingdom is a highly centralized country, and their protests are directly ignored by Varian.

By the time Varian abdicated at the age of thirty-five, the kingdom had six large cities, tens of thousands of professionals, and nearly a million skilled workers, making it the veritable number one power in all of Azeroth, far beyond the entire tribe.

Speaking of tribes, especially orcs, they have lagged behind humans in all respects over the years.

In fact, the quality of life of the orcs is not bad at all.

When they traded with Ionar, Thrall and Wojin didn't ask for power seeds, they asked the Titans to transform the Barren Lands, Durontar, and Aishara into feng shui treasures similar to the Splendid Valley, plus the minerals in the orc territory were originally abundant, and Azhara even had oil, and the orcs lived happily ever after.

They have endless food, and whatever is planted on the ground can be harvested in ten days.

As for other things, there is no shortage of other things, the industrialization of the Stormwind Kingdom requires a large amount of minerals as raw material input, and every year it will buy mineral oil from the orcs, and you can earn a lot of gold coins while lying down, and finally exchange it for the industrial products of the Stormwind Kingdom, the magic products of Dalaran Quel'Salas and even various luxury goods.

There weren't even any monsters around, and with the breech guns purchased in large quantities from the Alliance, the tribe had also killed almost all the monsters in their territory.

In this case, the rate of orc reproduction is very fast, and after twenty-five years it has reached more than a million in number.

But as for the quality, it's hehe.

Orcs have no way to popularize compulsory education like the Stormwind Kingdom, and the compulsory education in the Stormwind Kingdom is based on the high degree of dictatorship of the kingdom.

With their high prestige and absolute power, Claudia and Varian were able to overcome the domestic disobedience, pass the compulsory education bill, build hundreds of schools at once, and force the people to send their children to schools.

In addition to the military, the tribes are very loose internally, can you expect a tribal union system to suddenly become an absolute dictatorship?

This is not an easy matter.

And more importantly, the orcs are too poor in terms of cultural background, they use songs to record history, they don't even have words, the illiteracy rate is 99%, even if they are allowed to do any compulsory education, they don't have much to teach.

In addition to the overall backwardness of the cultural industry, the orcs also fell into a strange circle of comfort and laziness militarily, just like the first two years of the alliance, and gradually lost the spirit of martial arts.

It is not surprising that since the failure of the Grom expedition Woke came to power, the hawks within the tribe have been greatly hit, and the doves led by Woking have come to power, and in order to prevent the recurrence of Grom history, the tribe has begun to unanimously promote the slogan of peace.

In this case, the old group of orcs gradually withered and grew old, and the younger generation of orcs grew up accepting the slogan of peace, coupled with the great abundance of living materials, there was no need to fight with nature and there were no foreign enemies, so naturally the orcs lost their martial spirit and put more attention on eating, drinking and having fun.

Garrosh, Grom's son, is anxious about the current situation of the orcs.

He believes that orcs should not live the comfortable sedentary life they are living now, but should return to the traditions of their ancestors, go to the wilderness to fight against nature, become strong in battle, and obtain a glorious death in battle.

On the surface, a large number of young orcs are madly adoring Garrosh, but most orcs have spent one or two time in the wilderness and then find some excuse not to go.

If you have a comfortable life, why go to the wilderness to find sin, isn't this sick?

After many times, Garrosh also saw the thoughts of his compatriots, and after much deliberation, he decided that the current situation of the tribe today was caused by the Great Chief Woking, and as long as Wojin remained in power, the tribe would be irretrievably degenerate.

In order to save his compatriots, to save his beloved tribe, Garrosh came to the Kukaron camp one day with a few cronies.

“…… We are orcs, a true orc, and we should never die of old age, but heroic death on the battlefield......"

“…… Our people are in irretrievable depravity, immersed in a comfortable life and unable to extricate themselves, forgetting the glorious traditions of their ancestors......"

“…… And the root cause of all this is the wrong policy of the Great Chief Woking...... If you are still true orcs, please accompany me to overthrow Woking's rule, and I will bring you back to the traditions of your ancestors, so that you will not be dishonored by your ancestors when you die......"

However, Garrosh was disappointed, and after his speech, none of the orcs around him responded to him, not even the young orcs of the Warsong Clan.

If these young orcs had grown up in battle, and were short of supplies and fought from time to time, they would definitely agree with Garrosh's philosophy.

But since the living materials have been highly abundant all these years, and all the orcs have lived well, why should they put a good life and devote themselves to hardship and tempering themselves again?

In the end, a desperate Garrosh picked up the blood roar and decided to attack the Chieftain's Hall himself, wanting to use his own blood to awaken the bloodiness in the hearts of the orcs.

But he failed, and for Grom's sake, Woking didn't kill him, and chose to put him in a dungeon, and for Garrosh, he would rather die himself......

When they heard about Grom, Claudia, Gianna, and Varian were vacationing in the middle of the mountain, and since Varian resigned as king, the three of them had been coming to this place regularly to enjoy Pandaren food and wine.

"It's worthy of being the son of Grom, Garrosh is a bit bloody," Varian commented and sighed with emotion: "Orcs will become like this, although we humans have an outer land as a training ground, but we don't know how long we can hold out, and now the domestic opposition has become louder and louder." ”

Claudia thought about it and said: "The crux of the problem now is that the risk of training troops in the outer region is too high, and there is not much profit at all, why don't I contribute a few planes that are rich in Agrama's memory and have certain dangers, and then we will build a portal in Stormwind City and let the apprentices go there to adventure, and we can secretly protect them during the first few expeditions to ensure that the apprentices can make a fortune." ”

Gianna had already figured out what Claudia meant, and she took Claudia's words:

"In this way, after seeing the apprentices who have made a fortune, more and more people will spontaneously embark on the path of dimensional exploration, gain wealth in adventure, and practice battles, forming a virtuous circle."

"However, it is also easy to increase the centrifugal force of our people." Varian points out the problem.

"So when we encounter that kind of problem, the laws of the kingdom need to be compromised and changed," Claudia said, "but in any case, we humans must not abandon our blood, we must always evolve, there are too many powerful and malicious races in this universe." ”

"That's true." Varian nodded in agreement.
