Chapter 13: Panic in Nanhai Town
Nanhai Town, one of the important cities where humans gathered in the hills of Hillsbrad, can only be listed as one of the grievances in this era when Dalaran still exists.
As a city backed by the sea, Nanhai Town has a port, one of the few ports where it trades with the maritime power of Kutilas, and it is full of flowers, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and it is a peaceful scene, but that was said before, and now Nanhai Town is full of tense and solemn atmosphere.
Just the day before yesterday, the wizard from Dalaran, yes, is the wizard, for the people of Nanhai Town, the wizard of Dalaran, that is a symbol of disaster, that city does not know how many times it has been destroyed, every time it is destroyed, Nanhai Town has to be frightened, who makes the distance between the two not too far.
And this time the wizard who came from Dalaran also brought bad news, he said the news that the entire Nanhai Town was in turmoil, the army of a group of green-skinned damned orcs came towards Nanhai Town, and in three days, that group of orcs would hold the sharp weapons in their hands, shouting and rushing into Nanhai Town.
So panic erupted at this moment.
You can see that the port of Nanhai Town in the past two days is definitely the busiest time, working day and night, and the moment you hear the orcs coming, the rich people have already run clean.
As a city in the hinterland of the human kingdom, after the outbreak of the First World War, there was basically no friction among the major kingdoms of mankind, and Nanhai Town only had a small guard sent after winning World War II, and the personnel of a guard were uneven, ranging from 300 to 500 people.
This number is named after Nanhai Town, with only 300 guards, it is the only army in Nanhai Town, because it participated in the Second World War, it is considered elite, but unfortunately their number is too small, it is not enough to bring a sense of security to the people of Nanhai Town, when I heard that the orcs who attacked had tens of thousands of people, the port was no longer idle.
The mayor of Nanhai Town temporarily recruited a lot of enthusiastic young people, arranged an army, and expanded the number to 1,000 people, but at this moment, the mayor of Nanhai Town is still sad and sad, and he doesn't see any joy.
Looking at the busy port, the mayor of Nanhai Town hated those rich people, these guys were all well-equipped, the weapons were made by dwarves, and the same was true for armor, a set of enough ordinary homes to live for many years, they joined forces, and they were able to form a not weak force, but unfortunately when they heard that the orcs were coming, these rich people never thought of resisting, but transferred all their assets as soon as possible, leaving this catastrophic city.
Nanhai Town has a lot of population, and it is unrealistic to use the port to transfer all of them, and now only those rich people have run away safely, and the others have only let the mayor of Nanhai Town transfer a group of women and children.
"The people sent out by Old John have returned, and the news that the inquiry has come back is not optimistic, it is really bad news that it can't be worse," a sturdy man with silver-white sideburns, with a rather bitter face, came to the port, strode to the mayor of Nanhai Town, and slowly opened his mouth to speak.
"Damn the orcs, I said I should kill them all, and it will be a hidden danger to keep them sooner or later," the mayor of Nanhai scolded in a deep voice. "Say, what kind of bad news?"
"More than 10,000 people came,"
"How can there be so many? Could it be that Guo Hold was also captured, "The mayor of Nanhai Town was taken aback, and his face showed surprise, the mayor of Nanhai Town participated in the Second Great War and made outstanding achievements, hearing that there were so many orcs, he would naturally think that Guo Hold Castle, which was not too far away from Nanhai Town, was captured, and the fall of the Lordamir Asylum was forgotten, because he was just a wizard of Dalaran, and he studied the weakening changes of the orcs themselves, so he established a shelter, and there were not too many orcs imprisoned, and the fall of the Lordamir Shelter caused a huge impact, not his importance, It was that he was so close to Dalaran that Dalaran didn't even notice it beforehand.
Gohold Castle is different, it is home to a large number of orcs, and it is also the largest orc shelter in the world.
The orcs inside are measured in tens of thousands, and if this place falls, it will be a monstrous disaster, and the orcs may be swept in again, and then a third war will break out, which is not impossible.
"Gohold Castle is fine, since the news of the orc riot came out, there have been additional defenders there, and there are only about 10,000 orcs,"
"The wizard of Nadaran is only half of what he said, in addition to 10,000 orcs, there are also a large number of kobolds, gnolls, ogres, and a small number of trolls, which is simply a hodgepodge of races,"
"How many people are there?" The mayor of Nanhai asked.
"Almost twenty thousand,"
"What about the Wizard of Dalaran? Why hasn't the reinforcements he said come yet? "Mayor Nanhai's face is more bitter, 10,000 orcs are not something that Nanhai Town can resist, not to mention that there are races such as jackals and ogres, which of these is easy to match.
They are all synonymous with the barbarian race, they can be called savage, they are all guys who are not weak in combat, one-on-one, adult human men, do not have an advantage, but a disadvantage, because this barbaric race, for food, constantly fighting, in the second war, I have seen the ferocity of trolls and ogres, and the mayor of Nanhai Town has a typical lack of confidence in this defense.
"When the next ship arrives, you and John's boy will leave, and I'll be enough here," Mayor Nanhai said to the man beside him as he walked in search of Wizard Dalaran.
"It should be you who go, as the captain of the South China Sea Guard, it is my duty to protect South Sea Town," the man shook his head, patted the mayor of South China Sea Town on the shoulder, and continued to speak; "Now I have nothing to worry about, my wife and son are all dead in the hands of this group of orcs who should be killed, this time it is just a conclusion, you are different, you still have to take care of John,"
"Reinforcements are coming," a sudden shout in the distance interrupted the two men's words.
"Lordaeron has come for reinforcements, and I've heard that Uther's Silver Hand is in the Alterac Mountains, and it may be him this time. As long as the Knights of the Silver Hand come, these orcs should not be afraid," the mayor of Nanhai Town looked happy.
"It can't be Uther, this time Uther is in charge of suppressing the orc rebellion, and it may be the Prince of Arthas who comes to help,"
