King Jean Greymane had been holding out on to the walls for three days. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lordaeron's surprise attack sent the whole of Gilneth into a panic, even though the thick walls that kept the goblin bombs out of the way still worried the Gilneys.

Contrary to what most people think, this time the problem really started with Gilnes.

When Arthas became a paladin last year, King Jean accepted Terenus and Varian's invitation to attend a baptismal ceremony at the Cathedral of Light in Stormwind.

At the time, Stormwind showed great goodwill towards Gilnes, while Lordaeron was forced to ease relations with Gilney due to the oppression of the Wall of Greymane and the Oath.

Just when everything seemed to be developing towards peace and friendship, as soon as Drunken Wind fell unconscious, there was an accident on Gilneth's side.

Unexpectedly, the Silver Hand Paladin, who escorted Greymane back, found orcs in the Ember Mine in Gilneth!

What's even more unexpected is that the heavily armed paladin died at the hands of the orcs! Then think Gilneth official for help of the deputy committed suicide in the guest room!

All smelled of conspiracy.

……………………

However, in reality, these orcs were not free orcs, they were part of the captives of the orc wars.

When the Greymane Wall was built to prevent Lordaeron's annexation, Jean had to give up some of his possessions to the south of the Silver Pines Forest, including the village of Burnt Wood and Ambermere.

As compensation, Jean gave the right to mine the Ember Rock Pit to Baron Valen, the former chairman of the Burning Wood Village.

However, Baron Schvalenne sadly discovered that the policy of isolation had left the whole of Gilneth understaffed, and that the Ember Pit had a large amount of high-quality ore but no one could mine it.

Greed took the plunge of the baron, who bought Blackmore from the orc asylum at Dunhold Castle and quietly transported some of the orcs as slaves to the Ember Mine while the Wall of Greymane was still unfinished.

In fact, it was not uncommon for a small number of orcs to be used as slaves and gladiators within the Alliance, and if nothing else, the Ember Mine would at best be Baron Sivalen's loss of his status as a nobleman.

Unfortunately, these orcs came from Dunhold Castle.

Blackmore immediately escalated the deal to Terenus.

These are normal, espionage fights between Lordaeron and Gilneth.

Things went wrong with the paladin Onnes, who escorted King Jean home.

The paladin from Lordaeron was an ardent supporter of Terenus, who had asked him to go to the Ember Mines to gather some information. In Terenus's opinion, although he can't attack Gilnes, it's always right to have some Gilnes in his hands.

Therefore, after escorting King Jean back to the city of Gilne, Lieutenant Ones did not leave directly, but walked around the whole of Gilness.

As a result, the news of drunken wind and coma came.

The paladin, who was loyal to Lordaeron, found that Lordaeron finally had a chance to annex Gilneth, and now all he needed was a reason!

As a result, Ornes came to the Ember Mine and died at the hands of the orcs.

In order to act realistically, Ornes did not take off his armor, but after provoking, he revealed his flaws and allowed the orc slaves to kill him.

His deputy, the Paladin Gaseli, who was also fanatically loyal to Lordaeron, reported the matter to Baron Sylvalen as soon as he was planned, and while the Baron was discussing with his men how to conduct crisis public relations, the deputy died in the guest room.

Things got big all of a sudden.

Terenus directly declares that Gilneth has betrayed humanity.

On the face of it, Gilneth was unreasonable.

The self-sacrifice of the two paladins cut off all the clues, making it look like the killers were pointing at Gilneth.

Only eight years after the end of the Orc War, a paladin with a dignified silver hand died under the hoe of an orc in a mine!

Is this possible? Do you think all the orcs are mining Juggernauts?!

And what's going on with suicide in the guest room?

Surely he was killed by suicide!

A great deal of rumors spread against Gilneth in the Eastern Kingdom.

That's when the shortcomings of the isolation policy became apparent – everyone began to speculate about Gilneth with all sorts of conspiracy theories.

At the same time, Terenus was the first to expand the war, and the Hesso group used a large number of unconventional and extremely lethal weapons, which caused the civilians of Gilneth to suffer immensely and hatred to build.

In the Silver Hand, although the moderates led by Uther and Tirio advocated an investigation first, they were still a step slower - by the time the investigators arrived outside the walls of Greymane, the battle could not stop.

Gilneth and Lordaeron were red-eyed, and the proud Jean simply stated that it was all a conspiracy of Terenus, and he even refused the Silver Hand's investigation on the grounds that the Silver Hand could not be trusted.

That's right, Jean has basically guessed the ins and outs of the matter after interrogating Baron Sivalen, but there is no way to explain it!

What's more, now that a large number of civilians have died in Gilneys, if Jean chooses to continue to back down, I'm afraid he, the king, will also do it!

……………………

King Jean sighed deeply as he looked at the dense goblin siege machines parked in the night not far under the walls of Greymane.

At the beginning, he relied on goblins and minotaurs, and took the opportunity of the establishment of the oath to make Terenus suffer a loss, and Lordaeron, who had been preparing for a long time, punched him in the air. At that time, Lordaeron had hoarded a lot of war supplies, and it turned out that most of the rations were cheaper than the orcs.

Unexpectedly, Terenus learned his lesson and directly spent a lot of money to hire the siege master Heisuo, and the goblin technology greatly made up for the difference in the terrain between the two sides.

Terenus really seized a good opportunity, even if the oath was freed up later, it couldn't do anything to Lordaeron - looking at the terms of the oath, Jean felt that the oath was more likely to require Lordaeron to take more responsibility in the face of foreign invasions, anyway, when Gilneth was gone, the oath would not necessarily start an internal war for revenge.

After all, the first clause of the oath is to unite and use every strength.

Now Gene's heart is filled with despair, and it is only now that he realizes the consequences of isolating himself.

When you face the world coldly, the world will be indifferent to you.

Just as Jean pondered how to get rid of the dilemma in front of him, flares rose into the sky. The Goblin Siege Machine was activated.

Jean shook his head and began to lead the soldiers into battle.

"Boys, work hard, don't let those little greenskins be too arrogant!" (To be continued.) )
