Chapter 44: Gul'dan's betrayal
Sheldis and Deer Helm, who had been drifting on the sea for several months, unanimously passed the evaluation and certification of Hogg's demigod form as soon as they saw Nair in their coyote form, and the act of being able to give the druid a new wild form was something that only a demigod could do, and then heard that Hogg's dog (one person) destroyed the dark door that threatened the safety of the entire planet Azeroth, and they were immediately in awe, what a great demigod of the Holy Mother, he was simply the savior of Azeroth, and now I heard that because of the destruction of the dark gate, The orcs are about to attack the Battlepaw Fortress, and Santis and the Deerhelm have offered to help the Battlepaw Fortress through the immediate difficulties, including leaving the Wild West to find a new territory for the Clans of the Riverclaw to develop peacefully on the continent of Kalimdor.

Seeing the generosity of the two Night Elf leaders, Hogg also reciprocated by agreeing to the invitation of Santis on behalf of the Elune Sisters to perform the Luna Ceremony, as well as Deerhelm's proposal to join the Cenarion Council, after all, Hogg thought that these things were just a formality and a nominal post, so he agreed quite easily, but soon Hogg would know how wrong he was.
However, the arrival of the Night Elves has also completely reversed the situation in the Western Wilderness, and now the orcs actually have no hope of defeating the Riverpaw Clan at all, but at the request of the vengeful Zuluhid and the simple-minded Gromash who can't see the situation clearly, Gul'dan still led his orcs to attack the Riverpaw Fortress, but in the face of the powerful long-range attacks of the Night Elves in the Riverpaw Fortress, the orcs attacked several times in vain, So seeing that Gul'dan could not win the frontal battle, he proposed to retreat for the time being, waiting for a better time, he swore to Zuluhid and Gromash that the gnolls would definitely leave the western wilderness in the near future, and when these gnolls retreated, they would lose the protection of the city wall, and then Gromash would lead the wolf cavalry of the Warsong clan and the death knights to attack these gnolls on the way to retreat, and they would be able to easily win, even if some fish slipped through the net and went to sea, There are also warships led by Zuluhid and Gul'dan who can wipe them out.
Both of the orc chiefs agreed with Gul'dan's suggestion, as Gromash could fight a powerful enemy in person, and Zulushid was satisfied that he could throw all the murderers of his own people into the sea.
And because there was no orc harassment, the Riverpaw clan quickly completed five flat-bottomed merchant ships, so the gnolls and humans began to prepare for the final sailing, and the orcs also worked day and night to finally complete the three warships, so Guldan, Zulushid and Guldan's loyal follower Gugar each led his men to control a warship, but Zuluhid only had six orcs under his command, Therefore, the sailors and warriors in his warship were all orcs of the Gul'dan Tyranny Clan.
On the second night after the completion of the merchant ship, the gnolls and humans began the final retreat, the preparations for setting sail have been basically completed, and now it is only left to board the ship, seeing that there is no movement in the direction of the orc camp, so under Hogg's order, the gate of the riverpaw fortress opened, and the old and young humans and jackals pushed small carts in a long line, and began to transport food and various important items, and the three night elf sailing ships on the sea also launched several elf blade carts from the cabin, ready to protect the merchant ships, However, despite being heavily guarded, the gnolls were seen by Gul'dan's Eye of Evil (a spell that was later named the Eye of Kilrog), a green eyeball that looked the same color as the Evil Ability, which had been hidden in a hollow in a dead tree at the entrance to Rivertalon Fortress.
And after getting the news of Gul'dan, Gromash led the war song wolf cavalry that had been prepared for a long time, and the death knights who did not need to prepare at all, left the camp and came along the coastline in the direction of the dock of the river talon fortress, and Gul'dan got on the three orc warships that had long been anchored on the seashore with Zuluhid and Gulgar, and headed towards the open sea, according to Guldan's plan, the orcs will make a big circle from the open sea, and then spread the sails from the upwind, Under the impetus of the wind, directly break through the defense line of the Night Elves and engage in broadside battles with the Night Elves, in this way of playing, the powerful melee ability of the orcs can be brought into full play, and as long as the three warships of the Night Elves are defeated, aren't the flat-bottomed merchant ships transporting the gnolls still handy?
However, in fact, Gul'dan did not plan to attack the Night Elves according to this plan, because he had been waiting for such an opportunity to directly pull his men into the depths of the sea to find the tomb of Sargeras, so after setting sail, Gul'dan's assassins took action against Zuruhid and his six personal guards, and after killing Zulushid, he threw his body into the sea, and then Gul'dan fired an arrow of chaos into the sky, and this arrow of chaos exploded in mid-air, The Death Knights, who saw Gul'dan's signal, under the leadership of their leader Talon Gore, immediately turned their horses' heads and charged towards the water, and rode directly into the sea on skeleton horses, these Death Knights did not have to breathe at all, so they could gallop all the way to the bottom of Gul'dan's ships, and Gul'dan could catch them up by letting his orcs drop a fishing net.
Gromash already felt wrong when Gul'dan gave the signal, but he didn't expect the Death Knights to turn their horses' heads so decisively and go into the sea, let alone that these Death Knights could go directly from the bottom of the sea to meet Gul'dan, so it was too late to stop these Death Knights from entering the sea, and the wolf cavalry of the Warsong Clan, who had no ships, was blocked by the sea to pursue the road, and now Gromash understood that he was deceived by Gul'dan no matter how simple-minded he was. Now he could only hope that Zuruhid on Guldan's ship would stop Guldan, but when the sea pushed Zulushid's body to the shore, Gromash could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and he threw the blood roar in his hand in the direction of Guldan's three warships that were far away, and then jumped off the wolf, ran quickly to the sea, and swore in front of Zulushid's corpse that he would make Gul'dan pay with his life for such a betrayal.
