"It's nerve-wracking."

Ainan raised a soft brow, the current situation of Stormwind City was unexpectedly bad, the threat of orcs and red dragons was on the one hand, and the kingdom itself on the other, the latter causing a much more serious impact than the former.

After the defeat of the Dark Swamp, not only was King Rhine assassinated, but even the will to fight of the kingdom army was lost, otherwise the orcs would not have reoccupied the land of the Twilight Forest and other kingdoms so smoothly even with the help of the red dragon, forcing Stormwind into a desperate situation. You know, in the battle of the Dark Swamp, due to the attack of the 3,000 raven army, the orcs lost a lot more than the humans.

An army that has lost its fighting spirit, an army that has no idea of resistance, no matter how strong the fortress is, no matter how tall the walls are, don't expect them to be able to defend it.

What's more, the state of the Stormwind Kingdom is much more than that.

The humans of the world of Azeroth are still in the stage of land exploration, and all the human kingdoms have been visited, except for Kurtiras, one of the Seven Kingdoms of the North, the sea power of other countries is about zero. The Kingdom of Stormwind is slightly better, after all, the capital of the kingdom, Stormwind City, is close to the sea and has its own harbor, even if the kingdom itself does not have a formed maritime army, those mercenary merchants and nobles who take advantage of their privileges to make money each have a few ships.

Thanks to these ships, Anduin would not have been able to take away the wealth and people of the kingdom, and if they didn't want the hundreds of years of accumulation of the Stormwind Kingdom to cheapen the orcs, they could only burn it down when the city was broken.

The problem lies with these vessels.

According to Berval's arrangement, when the survival of the Stormwind Kingdom is in danger, all ships must obey the state's command. Some of them were used to load supplies, and the rest were used to move people. As long as Anduin's army is strong enough to hold the orcs to the death, Bervar can empty Stormwind and leave an empty city for the orcs.

The idea is good, but the actual operation is not as good as it should be.

The nobility is a privileged class, whether it is the Arathor Empire founded by Soladin, the Seven Northern Kingdoms such as Lordaeron, or the Kingdom of Stormwind. In the way of the aristocracy, the joint orders of Berval and Anduin certainly would not be openly disobeyed, but isn't there such a word-yang and yin.

On the surface, he obeyed your orders, and in actual action, he still went his own way, so that you could not do anything.

Anyway, there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.

Nominally, the ships of the Stormwind Kingdom have been recruited, but how to arrange it is not up to Boval alone, the nobles of all sizes in the parliament say that it sounds good, everything is important to state affairs, and we will never disobey orders if we obey the arrangement, but they do one thing and do another.

The ships that had been arranged to transport the commoners were not carrying the people who were waiting for them, but the nobles of the kingdom and their servants. The ships that were originally arranged to transfer supplies were not filled with food and clothing, but the collections of the nobles.

If this is the case, it is fine, after all, a large part of the sea ships are owned by the nobles themselves, and no one in the kingdom who have been enslaved and exploited by the nobles for generations dare to say more. The bad thing is that the nobles are too extravagant, now it's a run for their lives, not an outing, every inch of space in the ship is so precious in the case of limited sea ships, you can take one more person away if you squeeze out a little more space.

Look at how these nobles do it, they don't say it themselves, one person overlords several rooms, what to say about the living room, bedroom and the like, what is more excessive is that their pets also occupy at least one room, and some even have several rooms. If these rooms were used to transport civilians, there would be dozens or hundreds of people squeezed together.

As a result, when the defense line of Stormwind City was crumbling and the capital of the kingdom was about to be breached by foreign enemies, thousands of fleeing people could only stare at the sea ships on the harbor, and the nobles of the kingdom occupied a large ship that could run thousands of people by an average of a few dozen people.

How did the nobles who were the rulers of the kingdom feel about their behavior?

"If you don't die, you won't die."

Ainan had an urge to humanely destroy these nobles, was this the work of man? In the same city, who can hide the movement on this side of the harbor with such a big noise?

Stormwind is guarded by the army, what is the most in the army?

The most soldiers.

Where did the soldiers come from?

Aren't the common people still counting on those noble lords to be the big soldiers, rushing to the front line to fight the enemy?

The soldiers braved the dragon power of the red dragon, fearfully guarding against the attack from the dragon and the orcs, in order to use their lives to fight for the escape of their relatives in the rear. Now, they are desperately working on the front line, but their relatives can't even get on the boat, what is this. How do you make the soldiers feel that they have given their lives in exchange for such a result?

The morale of the army in Stormwind City is already unstable, and if it is not for Anduin's ability to pacify, the name of the Lothar family has enough prestige, and the army in the city has long since mutinied. Even so, if the matter is not resolved, Anduin will not be able to suppress it.

For the soldiers, they desperately defended the city to keep their relatives alive, and if the nobles of the kingdom did not give their relatives a chance to live, then no one would leave, and everyone would stay and die together.

Egwen was very angry: "It's time to clean up this group of scum, let me come if it's inconvenient for you to make a move." ”

From the moment the underworld was opened, a bright moon hung on the top of Karazhan's mage tower at any given time, indicating that the moon god Elune had been watching here. Judging from Elune's way of acting, the attitude of the only true god in the world of Azeroth is very obvious - it is better for the god not to intervene in the mortal world, and if he does, it should be a proxy war, just like when the elven queen Aishhara betrayed her during the Ancient War, she did not make a move, but launched the angry wind to replace her.

Ainan was sure that if he showed signs of making a move, Elune would stop him. At that time, the war will escalate in an instant, from the battle between the orcs and the Stormwind Kingdom to the divine war between the two gods. With the Burning Legion, a powerful foreign enemy, on the lookout, Ainan didn't want to spend his strength on infighting.

If the person who shot it was Egwen, it would be a different matter.

Elune will not escalate to a divine war if he does not take action himself, and the battle will be firmly limited to the level of mortal warfare.

"Whatever you do, I'll sweep for you."

Ainan is helpless, and it may not be a good thing if the strength is too strong.
