The Lord is also loyal to the royal family, and the taxes paid in full, which, combined with the accumulation of years of accumulation, should be able to satisfy the requirements of Archmage Antonidas.

The problem is human and material resources - after the end of the war, all countries have to start to resume production, especially the Kingdom of Stormwind, although the remnants have been able to return to their homeland, but the subsequent reconstruction project is enormous, all of which requires support from the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

What's more, King Terenus didn't see the need to rush his stance - with regard to these needs of Archmage Antonidas, the other two kings, one and one "would-be", were under even greater pressure.

Varian couldn't hold back his promise - it was the first time he had attended such a military conference, but Varian listened attentively; Hearing the news of those demons wreaking havoc already worried him, and now that Archmage Antonidas has proposed a solution, Varian has decided to support him without hesitation - as King of Stormwind.

Arthas could see the eagerness in his playmate's heart, and although there was no expression on his face, Arthas quietly kicked Varian in the shin under the table.

"Al-......" Varian's words were stopped by Arthas's eyes, and he closed his mouth, but still looked at his little friend suspiciously.

"Don't talk yet, see what His Majesty King Sollas has to say." Arthas motioned to Varian to be uneasy—from the look on the face of the owner of Riptide Castle, Arthas knew that His Majesty had something to say—and it was the same when it came to money, especially military expenses and other expenses to meet His Majesty's lavish needs, Castle Rapids had always been known for being stingy.

"This ...... Archmage Antonidas, you know how much damage this orc invasion has done to our territory and civilians. I'm afraid we don't have enough supplies to meet the needs here - as you can see, there are still more than 100,000 troops of the Kingdom of Stormgard stationed here to this day, and I'm waiting for the war against the Orcs to be over and I will take them back to the Arathi Highlands to grow crops! King Solas said with a dry cough.

Growing crops? - Arthas pouted - This King will grow crops? Even in the entire Arathi Heights, you can't find a few real farmers who can grow crops, right? Besides, what can be grown in that barren place!

"King Soras, I must remind you that what we have said before is not alarmist, and if the Alliance does not take it seriously, Dalaran alone will definitely not be able to prevent these temporal rifts from expanding further; If more demons come to our world, it will undoubtedly be another catastrophe, even more terrible than the orc invasion. Archmage Antonidas said in a warning tone.

"I know that, but ......" King Solas didn't continue, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

"The money problem is relatively easy to solve – even though we're not rich." Anduin Lothar spoke, "The royal family of Stormwind and the Brotherhood of the Iron Horse still have some property, which I can give to Archmage Antonidas to use, if it is really scarce, I can also collect or borrow some from other Stormwind refugees, and use the taxes of the royal family of Stormwind to repay it in the future." ”

Although these words were not uttered by Varian Wrynn, the true master of Stormwind, no one would question the validity of Anduin Lothar's words - everyone in this room, except for the dwarves who were born and insulated from politics and the few women around Arthas who had no interest in politics, knew that the Marshal of Stormwind could represent the royal family of Stormwind - even though Varian Ureon was the only one left in the royal family - and even after Varian's coronation, Anduin Bush was the only one left to speak. It was not an exaggeration for Lothar to be regent for a few years.

"But...... "Anduin Lothar frowned, and continued, "I'm afraid we won't be able to help much with human and material resources. As you know, there aren't many civilians left in the Kingdom of Stormwind right now, and maybe some will remain in the Kingdom of Lordaeron - of course, I respect the decision of these civilians themselves; As for the property...... You can use as many materials as you like from the lands of the Stormwind Kingdom, but ...... At least we don't have enough manpower to help you mine for the time being. ”

Archmage Antonidas didn't speak, and although he frowned, he understood Anduin Rosa's difficulty.

Despite the defeat of the orcs, the rebuilding of the Kingdom of Stormwind still has a long way to go; Anduin Lothar must complete the reconstruction of Stormwind, the division of the land of the refugees, the rewards of the nobles and the army, and the re-establishment of the royal authority of Stormwind in the shortest possible time...... As one of the largest human kingdoms on the continent, the Stormwind Kingdom is truly limited in the amount of assistance it can provide.

"I don't think there's much Terrenus can do." King Solas coughed dryly and said, "Lordaeron has been providing aid to other countries, and I think even if the treasury of Terenus is a mountain of gold, it will be emptied!" ”

King Terenus smiled silently—there was something else in King Soras's words, and in the face of his neighbor's speculation about the royal wealth of Lordaeron, King Terenus chose to pretend to be mysterious.

"We can provide manpower." King Magni Copperbeard spoke, and said angrily, "There is no shortage of men in our Iron Fort Castle, blacksmiths, warriors, and craftsmen; If you want iron ore and coal, I don't know what you can expect from the Iron Fort and other supplies. But I have to make one thing clear in advance - I don't have any money, and my people don't have money. ”

Listening to Magni Copperbeard's words, Arthas couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly-this king is really upright when he speaks, anyway, it's just a sentence - you can pick whatever you want, take whatever you want, just one word, no money!

Archmage Antonidas didn't know how to proceed with the meeting—all of them were difficult...... But what about the demons? Is it up to the mages of Dalaran to resist alone?

"Ahem...... I said, Archmage Antonidas, apart from these people here, there must be someone else who needs to take on this responsibility, right? King Solas may have been a little upset, so he showed Archmage Antonidas a clear path.

"You mean......" Archmage Antonidas hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Do you mean King Jean of the Kingdom of Gilne?" ”

King Solas nodded and raised his voice: "We all know that the Kingdom of Gilneth has not been affected in this war, that is, their national strength has not been lost; Whether it's manpower, material resources or money, they can meet the needs here. ”

Arthas shook his head—His Majesty the King of Riptide Castle had expressed his displeasure with Jean Greymane on such an occasion.

Everyone in the audience could understand what King Sollas meant—although he specifically pointed out that the Kingdom of Gilneth was not affected by the war, everyone could hear that King Solas was saying that the Kingdom of Gilneth had contributed nothing to the Alliance's war.

A month earlier, at Fort Riptide, King Solas had complained in front of King Terenus about the Gilneth Kingdom's inconvenience, and now that he had brought the matter to such an important military meeting, the meaning of the two was completely different.

"Terenus, did you inform King Jean before this meeting?" Admiral Dalin, who had never been a talker, spoke.

"Yes, Dalin." King Terenus spoke, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "But I don't know why, Jean still didn't show up at this meeting. ”

"We also informed King Jean...... Through his court mage. Archmage Antonidas said helplessly, "But King Jean said that he was not feeling well, so he could not come to this meeting. ”

"Excuses, this is definitely excuses!" King Solas said loudly as he slapped the table.

None of the people in the room spoke—short
