Act XXVI: The Battle of Stratholme II
Dathohhan was not in a good mood, and not long ago, His Royal Highness Prince Arthas angrily rebuked the lords of Lordaeron to their faces, asking them to send their soldiers to Stratholm with all their might. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Even if this is a rumor, it is very unpleasant to hear, because it is rumored that Stratholme is infected with the plague, and soon the whole city will become a world of the undead, so Arthas intends to send a large army to slaughter the whole of Stratholme.
But Da Sohan always scoffed at such news, Stratholme was impregnable, and even the cultists did not have many at all, how could there be such a large-scale outbreak of plague. What's more, how could His Royal Highness the Prince of Arthas do such a crazy thing, knowing that Stratholme was the largest city in the east of Lordaeron, how could he possibly slaughter such a city.
But now D'Sohan's only concern was that the Prince of Arthas believed the gossip.
In this way, even if the slaughter of Stratholm is not carried out, the small-scale purge will continue, which will make the Knights of the Silver Hand less influential in Stratholme.
He rode on a silver war horse and sighed in frustration, now that Lord Uther had not come to the vicinity of Stratholme, I am afraid that the Prince of Arthas would not follow his advice at all, and if His Royal Highness questioned the need to inspect Stratholme and caused panic, I am afraid that it would only be possible for His Royal Highness the Prince of Alsace.
"It's bad luck." Da Sohan looked at Stratholme at the foot of the mountain, and then tightened the reins on his hand. The mountain in front of Stratholme is not very high, and it takes about three hours to reach the base of the mountain on a warhorse, but it is worth mentioning that the small mushroom that grows near this mountain is the most popular and cannot be collected at all, which is why the poor people in the vicinity are able to survive in Stratholm in large numbers.
Da Sohan glanced at the top of the mountain, which was still an hour away, then shook his head and continued to drive his horse forward. His Royal Highness the Prince of Alsace was the son of His Royal Highness in his old age, which excited the king, who already felt that he was going to be extinct, and regarded it as a gift from heaven. Such a mentality, even if it is educated with Uther, it is difficult to eliminate the pride and arbitrariness in the character of His Royal Highness Prince Arthas, which is also a matter that most lords are very worried about, although the Knights are not directly under the orders of the royal family of Lordaeron, but as vassals of Lordaeron, they must fight for this kingdom.
This also makes the Silver Hand must be associated with Lordaeron, to put it simply, in foreign wars, the Knights can not participate in battles, but in defensive wars, the Knights of the Silver Hand must stand with Lordaeron.
There was a screech of an eagle from above, and a mountain eagle circled around Dasohan before landing in front of Sohan, dropping a note, and flying quickly into the clouds.
Da Suohan quickly picked up the note on the ground, and after a brief glance, his face changed suddenly, and then he said in a tone of disbelief: "The elf actually agreed to help Lordaeron, this is ...... Although it is only some two-line auxiliary troops, why would the elves send troops to help the Prince of Arthas. ”
He took a deep breath, originally according to his idea, he should have let the lords and elves of Lordaeron unite to applaud His Royal Highness Prince Arthas, but what happened now surprised Da Sohan.
"Not now, if Master Uther doesn't come to Stratholme, I'm afraid Arthas will really believe that lie." He pulled out a note from his silver cuirass and threw it into the sky, only to see the note quickly turn into an eagle and then quickly disappear into the sky.
"I hope Lord Uther will be able to come to Stratholme as soon as possible......"
Da Sohan prayed quietly, and from this distance, he had reached the barracks at the top of the mountain. Numerous soldiers patrolled in an orderly manner, strong, magically armoured human heavily, the royal guard of Lordaeron, who obeyed only the king's orders, but which was now under the command of His Royal Highness Prince Arthas.
This caused Da Sohan to shrug his shoulders, and when he looked to the other side of the barracks tent, he saw only a few knights in magical armor greeting Da Sohan. These knights gathered outside the tent in the barracks command hall were, of course, the lords of eastern Lordaeron, all of them were at the peak of the elite rank, and a few of them had already reached the peak of the master rank. These people were the most powerful forces in eastern Lordaeron, but now they had gathered outside the tent in the command hall of His Royal Highness Prince Alsace and waited.
Da Sohan quickly walked over, he wanted to inquire about the tone of His Royal Highness Prince Alsace, so that he could improvise with everyone soon, but when Da Sohan stood near the tent door, he only saw Sylvanas angrily walk out of the barracks tent, and then rushed into the forest, and after a few whistles, he completely disappeared.
"Everybody, come in, and then it's time to discuss our problems."
………………
Arthas looked at the map on the table, this map was the map of Lordaeron when it was first established, on the map, Eastern Lordaeron belonged to trolls at that time, and the Silver Pine Forest was occupied by the Kingdom of Gilneys, even if it was Lordaeron itself, there were three forces fighting against each other. But this map belongs to hundreds of years ago, and next to the map, there is another map of Lordaeron, which is reminiscent of today's Lordaeron. The Kingdom of Gilneth has completely retracted to its homeland and bowed to Lordaeron, and the Alterac Snow Mountains have also been incorporated into Lordaeron's territory, and Dalaran, although known as the Magic Kingdom, has actually advanced and retreated with Lordaeron on many issues.
Arthas looked at Gianna beside him, a smile appeared on his face, even the noble elves of Quel'Salas must submit to the humans, this is also the highest honor achieved by the human kingdom for thousands of years.
But now, Arthas put away the map on the table and set it aside from the wooden table, and he now had something big to announce.
The lords quickly walked into the command hall of the barracks, the generals were supposed to be at home in the barracks tents, but now the uneasy expressions on the faces of the lords made Arthas feel very uncomfortable.
In Arthas's memory, at least in his father's command hall, there was absolutely no such emotion.
"Okay, everyone, before coming to my barracks, I believe you already know the current threat, and I can't hide it, this time I summoned you here, the first thing is to deal with the remnants of the Cult of the Damned, and the second thing is to build a real army." (To be continued.) )
