Chapter 392: The Scarlet Crusade's Northern Expedition
Just as there was a knock on the door, the postman suddenly pinched his throat. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Idiot, I said don't send files in the middle of the night - and you send files in the middle of the night, don't you? I'm not going to open the door for you! ”
The sound is exactly the same as that of the unlucky guy who just got knocked out!
Hearing the postman's imitation, Nomi gives a thumbs up (well, the first finger), while the postman blinks with a look of "it's all trivial".
The guards outside, who were alarmed by the gnome alarm, were secretly relieved, and then left the door of the archives after some apologies.
Then, once again, Drunk, Nomi, and the Postman focused on the files.
"Looks like things are not going well." After probably flipping through a few more files, Drunken Wind narrowed his eyes, "All the members of the Scarlet Crusaders who participated in the 'Revenge Tour' have been heard from again, not a single one - most likely, they are all in Northrend...... He's dead. ”
"Dead?" The postman gasped, "Their enemies are undead scourges!" To die means ...... Become a subordinate of Arthas! ”
"Quite possibly." Drunken Wind remembered some of the original history, and nodded silently, "Maybe the current Lich King is a lot stronger......"
……………………
Two years ago, in the summer.
That was when the conflict between the Scarlet Crusaders and the Battle of Gilneth could not be eased.
During the meeting of the Scarlet Crusades, Uther once again quarreled with Dathohhan.
"Da Sohan, we can't drink Gilneth anymore, if this continues, the battle will only be more intense, and the hatred between the two sides will only be more profound, and then ...... Then the whole of Lordaeron will be finished! ”
"But what can I do? Shall we quit the Tirisfal Glades? Even if we back down, will Gilneth back down? Will Jean back down? The Gilneys always put on a condescending face, how could the land of Lordaeron be in their hands? ”
Dathohhan's words gave Uther a headache, and it had to be said that Gilneth's image in the alliance was too bad, and the non-acceptance of refugees after the outbreak of the undead was one of the reasons why the Scarlet Crusaders had always been hostile to him.
The Scarlet Crusaders and Gilneth wanted two giants wrestling in the mud, neither of them willing to admit defeat, but neither of them wanted to continue fighting.
"Could it be that the power of our Scarlet Crusaders should only be used to fight our fellow citizens? We built to deal with Alsace and the undead scourge! Gavinrad also shook his head bitterly, "Now Arthas is hiding in his lair to recuperate, and we are constantly fighting among ourselves, consuming our strength!" ”
Just when the three original paladins were in pain and at a loss, old Mograini suddenly put forward his own idea.
"Otherwise, we'll maintain our defenses in the Tirisfaring Glades, and then we'll go to Northrend with our main force! As long as we kill Arthas, Gilneth will never be able to touch the land of Lordaeron again—isn't Jean using the Pioneer Convention as an excuse? Well, as long as we complete the revenge, we will be eligible to truly inherit the land of Lordaeron, after all, in the Pioneer Convention, the inheritance of the avenger is higher than the pioneer right! ”
Hearing Mograini's suggestion, the eyes of the three people lit up at the same time.
If the Scarlet Crusaders can indeed succeed in destroying the Lich King, then Gilneth will be messing around in the Tirisfaring glades, and the Scarlet Crusaders can directly return to the Alliance and attack Gilneth in the name of the Alliance.
Gilneth is a nuisance for the Scarlet Crusaders, but if it's against the Alliance...... Without the dwarves doing anything, Stormwind can easily hang Gilneth up and fight!
The only question then is whether the Scarlet Crusaders can defeat Arthas and his undead Scourge......
Due to the intervention of Drunken Wind, compared to the original history, Arthas's subordinates are now not a little weaker - not only did they not completely sweep the Eastern Kingdom, but even the original Lordaeron could not be cleaned up, and then they were bled at Stratholme!
The current Undead Scourge is dominated by Lordaeron civilians and Eldraine-Nirub Spider Demons, with only a handful of dwarves or something - these unlucky people have chosen the wrong time to travel in Lordaeron.
In this way, it seems that the Scarlet Crusaders really have a fight!
As for the frost sorrow in Arthas's hands? Mograini still has the Ember Bringer!
When it is broken, it is broken!
In this case, Uther directly decided to prepare for the Northern Expedition with all his might!
Coincidentally, one of the main reasons why the postman was indiscriminately confiscated by the Scarlet Crusaders was that the Scarlet Crusaders were raising funds to cross the sea at that time, and a certain squad leader made a cameo appearance as a robber after raising money in vain.
And the reason why the earthen pot was abandoned is also related to this Northern Expedition - when the earthen pot and the morning dew met, it was on the eve of the Northern Expedition.
You must know that the Northern Expedition is a top-secret operation for the Scarlet Crusaders, and once it is leaked, Gilneth may directly launch a large-scale campaign, and the Scarlet Crusaders of the main Northern Expedition will have almost no chance of winning at that time.
So, it was one thing for someone to make trouble, and Uther was worried about the Northern Expedition on the other - so in the end Uther sealed the morning dew and stripped the earthen pot of its holy light.
It can be said that this Northern Expedition of the Scarlet Crusade really concealed everyone, except for Da Sohan who stayed and occasionally showed his face, most of the named paladins were dispatched.
Uther the Lightbringer, Mograine the Ember Bringer, Gavinrad Doom, Ethanrien the Procurator, and Abidis the Grand General......
The elite members of the Scarlet Crusaders who participated in the Orc War and the War of the Undead attacked, and after paying a huge hush money, with the help of the Hesso Group, together with the newly trained priests and mages, left the Eastern Kingdom and landed directly on the shores of Icecrown Glacier along the coastline in Northrend, bypassing the Howling Fjord.
At the northernmost tip of Northrend, after climbing a steep glacier with ropes, these sturdy paladins took it upon themselves to build a massive fortress, the Scarlet Dawn Fortress, in the midst of the extreme cold.
These vengeful Scarlet Crusaders lived up to their name, and even the cold weather did not deter them, and they abandoned the reserve of the clergy, went to the sea to fish, melted the snow and ice themselves, and quickly adapted to the environment.
Meanwhile, Uther and Mograine personally lead the team and begin to search for traces of the undead scourge.
The icy Icecrown Glacier left the footprints of the Scarlet Crusaders.
Then they met Arthas, Orsa, to be exact, one with Naozu.
