The town of Southsea in the hills of Hillsbrad is shrouded in a haze because of the strength of the orc navy, and the once bustling port is now scattered with a few small boats, and few merchants will risk their lives to come here. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Autumn makes the trees near the pier hang a little yellow, and the temperature is not cold and makes people feel very comfortable, and a sailboat of small tonnage slowly leans against the wooden trestle.

The ship with the strange decorations, those who know it can see at a glance that this is a merchant ship belonging to the goblins, and maybe only this group of guys who only have gold coins in their eyes will come to Nanhai Town at this time......

A large group of topless, short-shirted laborers rushed forward, hoping to get a job to feed their increasingly poor families, and behind them, more people were in rags and beggars, and more people were also blindly watching.

A group of elite soldiers in full armor, wearing red cloaks and armed with spears and shields, stepped off the boat in a neat queue along the gangplank, quickly dispersed the coolies crowded here, and used the wide shields with hideous barbs to keep the people out.

Barrett, supported by a young attendant, walked up to the deck tremblingly, and the cheerful chirping of seagulls and the yellow and green plants on the land not far away made his dark and burnt face slightly better.

The two-week sea trip, with only a short stop at the Goblin Harbor in Camlido, was a little overwhelmed for the already old Barrett, and all he wanted most was a bed that wouldn't swing and a large portion of vegetable soup!

"Dear Lord Barrett, welcome to the beautiful town of Nanhai! I'm sure you'll love to try the sustenance! Delicious patterned grouper! Baron Antonis stood on his left side and said with some nostalgia.

"Shut up! I'm talking to me about any kind of fish! I'll leave you overboard! "Viscount Winchester was a little anxious to get off the ship, he had never traveled long distances, and even if he had experienced it once before, he still could not bear life at sea.

Perhaps because he had finally reached his destination, Barrett had a smile on his face, and with the help of his attendants, he also came to the docks, and suddenly, a feeling of dizziness made his body shake.

The long time at sea made him a little uncomfortable with the stability of the land, and it took a long time to recover.

At this time, the former coolies had long since dispersed, watching them from a distance, and perennial experience told them that the nobles generally had a large number of servants and did not need their help at all, so as soon as the guards appeared, they gradually dispersed.

The docks in Nanhai Town haven't been overly polished, and apart from the gravel paved roads, the sides of the roads are even just manicured lawns!

The smooth hardened pavement leads to a town not far away, and the small but very thick walls are mottled, proving that the town is prosperous and not without the ability to resist.

The simple but not humble road is very flat, the irregular gravel is perfectly embedded in the compacted earth, and its width allows several trucks to run in parallel without looking crowded.

A hundred guards of the Divine Qi Legion lined up in two rows, guarding the group in the middle, and slowly walked towards the town. The Viscount of Winchester, who had already identified himself with the dock officials, even sent someone to inform the mayor of the town and asked him to hold a welcoming ceremony.

The closer you get to the city, the more crowded it becomes, and although trade by sea is almost cut off, there are still a large number of people stranded here, and there are many more refugees camping out in the nearby wilderness, which makes Nanhai not so depressed.

The well-equipped legionary guards, as well as the heraldic banners of Viscount Winchester and Baron Antonis, made the surrounding crowd actively avoid the procession, and many townspeople, who were obviously much better dressed than the average person, took the initiative to salute the procession on the side of the road.

There is no one who is not open-eyed to find trouble, although this is nominally the territory of the Alterac Kingdom, but the Lordaeron Kingdom, as the leader of the human kingdom, is still good here!

Slowly and calmly, approaching the city gate, an old, richly dressed man waited with some retinue that was obviously a government official.

"My lords from the kingdom of Lordaeron, I am the mayor of this place, Sadney, and at your request, on behalf of all the residents of Nanhai Town, I welcome you to the warmest beds, as well as abundant food, for you and your entourage." The old man at the head stepped forward, with a smile on his face, and saluted with impeccable etiquette.

Nodding arrogantly, Viscount Winchester maintained his etiquette, but said very arrogantly: "Hurry up and take us to rest, I've had enough of life at sea!" ”

"Yes! Please come with me. Old Sadney was very enthusiastic, and after making a gesture of invitation, he personally led the way in front of him, and enthusiastically introduced everyone to everything that Nanhai Town had to offer.

Barrett's discomfort had completely disappeared after a period of walking, and he no longer needed the support of the waiter.

Frowning, Barrett looked at the thriving commercial city, where he had traveled with his master in his youth, and where the town of Nanhai was prosperous, where merchants from all over the world sold their goods and purchased local products; The loud voices of the mercenaries and sailors could be heard everywhere; The affluence of the inhabitants was enough to make the small nobles in the remote areas envious!

But now, the streets are deserted, and there is the occasional pedestrian, all in a hurry. In a certain corner, there was one or more yellow-skinned, thin-clothed beggars staring indifferently at their group.

"I'm sorry, honorable Lord Sadney, I have a question, I wonder if you can take the time to introduce it to me?" There are too many beggars! Barrett was curious and ready to ask.

"Oh! This man, if you have any questions, just ask! I don't deserve to be called Your Excellency. The old mayor said with a smile, and it was clear that Barrett was happy with his respect for him.

It was evident that the old mayor considered Barrett to be as aristocratic as the Viscount of Winchester, Barrett smiled, but did not intend to explain, he glanced at the beggars huddled in the corner and asked, "Why are there so many beggars here?" It didn't seem like that in my youth? ”

The old mayor was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't react that he would ask this question, and at the same time he didn't know what this old man who seemed to be on an equal footing with the two noble lords meant, so he was silent for a while.

Fortunately, Viscount Winchester knew about this, and the person who caused this result was still his own king, so he quickly took over: "I know this." ”

He glanced at the silent Baron Antonis and said, "These are refugees from the Kingdom of Stormwind, and you are from the same place as the Baron, and my king has placed them in the hills of Hillsbrad, hoping that the prosperity here can help them......"

As Winterst only felt that he was telling, Barrett gradually understood that these were all commoners who had followed the Stormwind royal family to Lordaeron, and that the kingdom of Lordaeron had placed them in the territory of the kingdom of Alterac.

Barrett raised his eyebrows quietly, and sneered in his heart: It seems that the human kingdom is not so close.

From this incident, it can be seen that Minethil II of the Kingdom of Lordaeron is simply too inauthentic! He said that he took the lead in supporting Lothar to form an alliance, and spent a lot of effort to entertain the Storm royal family and nobles.

But for the civilians, they directly threw the bag, which gave the Alterac Kingdom a headache to the same Alliance, and the Alterac Kingdom is not vegetarian, and they don't seem to care about the life or death of the civilians of the Stormwind Kingdom, which is why so many beggars are created.

"If it's a little provocative." The smile on Barrett's face remained the same, but he was secretly calculating in his heart.

He knew better than anyone else that at this time, the predicament of the City of Angels, the seemingly huge population was about to fill the western wilderness, but when he was fighting with the orcs for the territory of the Storm Kingdom, what was the population of only 100,000 enough?

In the short term, except for Night Town, which can add some population to the City of Angels, the City of Angels has no way to obtain a large number of people, only to slowly heal the pain caused by the war and slowly multiply the race.

And the beggar in Nanhai Town gave him hope! These refugees don't seem to be having a good time, the inaction of the royal family of Stormwind City, the exclusion of other human kingdoms, I'm afraid they are already full of resentment!

You must know that the entire Stormwind Kingdom is now divided into three, except for the part that the orcs killed and captured, almost all the people left in the Stormwind Kingdom have been caught by Xiao Yi, and what about the last remaining batch? Naturally, he followed the royal family of Stormwind City to the kingdom of Lordaeron.

If these populations are reversed, not only will the City of Angels be able to gain a large number of people, but it will also be able to further weaken the royal family of the Storm Kingdom, and at that time, no royal family supported by the common people can still be called a royal family?

A plan gradually came to Barrett's mind, and the smile on his face became more gentle, and finally, under the guidance of the mayor, they moved into the largest hotel in Southsea Town!
