Chapter 145: The Insidious Fox

Jorad frowned and thought for a moment, then asked another question: "And what about the Stonefist Ogre, the Deadwood Troll, and the Syndicate?" Are we really going to work with these guys? ”

This time, Nicaea replied: "The Stonefist ogre will become our mercenaries under our control after the war, and will be used to rebuild Riptide Castle, and will also participate in various battles with us in the future, becoming the backbone of the fight against the evil forces!" And the Deadwood Troll's stronghold in Arathi will be uprooted!! As for Hinterland's~~" looked at Furstad who was sitting there: "It's up to Your Excellency the Lord and the Hammer Dwarves!" ”

"As for the Syndicate~~" Rommel took over and smiled coldly: "Some heinous guys, including their leader, Duke Facurrest, will die heroically in the fight against the ogre riot, and others will take the initiative to surrender to Fort Riptide and become the first members of King Stormgard's **Intelligence Bureau!!!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was stunned.

Jorad looked at Rommel with a gloomy face, and frowned in displeasure.

For a traditional paladin who values fairness and honor, Rommel, a man with a bad head and only a knack for intrigues behind his back, is very out of his character. Therefore, although I admire Rommel's mind, it is still not pleasing to the eye! But after all, it is still a cooperative relationship, and it is not easy to show it directly.

At this time, the blunt dwarven lord spoke again: "Little fox! Don't ramble around here! Let's talk about the plan! ”

"Uh~~" Rommel touched his nose a little embarrassed, organized his thoughts, and said:

"This plan was customized from the first time we learned of the Alliance's big move, the purpose is to make both the Alliance and the Horde suffer a big loss, and our Riptide Fort will take the opportunity to rise!"

"The plan is a two-step plan, the first step is to turn the tide of the Hillsbrad Hills. This has been done, and it is very complete! Everything is developing according to our wishes"

"The second step is Arahi's plan."

"Again, like the first step, we can't do it ourselves. Take advantage of the situation, attract the Horde and the Ninth Legion, and then profit from it! ”

Furstad said impatiently: "Be specific! ”

Rommel nodded, and continued: "The tribal coalition of Talenmir did not stay there to wait for reinforcements to be assembled, and has now sent a force to Arathi. Of course, this force is only about 2,000 men, and it poses no threat to us or to the Ninth Army. And if the other party's commander didn't have water in his brain, he would never have taken such a small number of people and shook the Ninth Legion! The best way is to choose a place with a wide view, easy to retreat, but hidden and remote, to observe and understand the situation here. ”

"Is there such a place?" Furstad looked at Garin next to him suspiciously. As a native of Arashi, it is clear that no one here knows the terrain better than him.

Garin thought for a moment, and blurted out a place name: "Northford Farm!" ”

"Not bad!" Rommel nodded: "At this time, the Duke of Facurrest has withdrawn all the members of the syndicate to Fort Riptide, which is empty, as long as the tribe chooses to settle there, their whereabouts will never be detected by the Ninth Legion!" Even we might be able to fully grasp what they're going on! ”

"The battle reports of Nanhai Town intercepted by the ogre should have entered the hands of the tribe at this time. Once they knew that the Ninth Legion was still in the dark, they would definitely make a move. But in the face of 20,000 troops, the only way is to sneak attack the refuge valley and burn the logistics of the Ninth Army there! ”

Jorad thought for a moment, shook his head and vetoed: "Impossible! The Marshal of the Ninth Legion, I know, has a very cautious personality, and his fighting style is full of a steady word, and only when he guarantees that he is undefeated will he think about how to destroy the enemy. Although there is nothing brilliant, it is full of resilience and generally does not make any big mistakes! ”

"Now that the tribe is completely suppressed, there are still 3,000 troops stationed in the Valley of Refuge, plus the Alasso coalition army that was originally stationed there, a total of no less than 5,000 people. There are also 2,000 defenders of Dabire's farm stationed above it who can come to the rescue at any time, with the tribe so many people, there is no chance at all! ”

"The tribe really doesn't have a chance!" Rommel nodded in agreement, then smiled harmlessly: "But what if we give them a chance?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the door of the secret room suddenly made a slight noise, and a brisk footstep sounded from far and near

Everyone's expressions tightened at the same time, and they stopped talking and looked at the entrance. It wasn't until I saw the figure and emotions of the comer that I relaxed

"How's it going? Did the tribe take the bait? Rommel asked in a calm tone.

"The letter has fallen into their hands!" It was none other than Rommel's best friend, the Night Elf Druid who often acted with him. And listening to his tone, it was the black leopard who was observing Xie Feng and the others in the dark!

Rommel would look away, smile at Nicaea, and confidently say, "All the best!" Let's wait and see! ”

Furstad was speechless for a while, this little fox didn't tell the plan! And they all said that they let themselves wait and see, and made it clear that they just didn't want to say more

Jorald on the other side didn't care much about Rommel's plan, but asked directly about the result: "You tried so hard to suppress the Ninth Army and push them to their death, did you think about the consequences?" Once the army of the Forsaken gathered in Tarummir attacks Arathi in a big way, how can you resist without the Ninth Legion? ”

Rommel did not reply directly: "It's still the same sentence, please wait and see!!" ”

"Uh~~" Jorad was choked by him, and he didn't treat him very well, but now he was even more unpleasant, and said angrily: "Even if you can stop the Forsaken, then what if the alliance cuts off the funding for Arashi?" ”

When Prince Garin on the side heard this, he immediately lowered his head with a gloomy expression. This sentence obviously speaks to his sore spot~~ More than half of the reason why the Stormgard Kingdom has fallen to this point is because of its geographical location!

The Arathi Highlands are undulating and mainly hilly, with only a few gentle valleys that are fairly flat and barely suitable for farming, but due to the climate, the harvest is not very high enough to supply the entire Riptide Castle people. In the past, it was possible to transport supplies from the wetlands via the Sador Bridge, or from the town of Southsea through the walls of Soradin. No matter how bad it is, you can hunt all kinds of fierce birds and beasts that are rampant on the plateau to eat, so that you are not afraid of lack of food.

However, after World War II, the Deadwood Trolls and Stonefist ogres took root in Arathi, and the hunt required more and more manpower, but less and less. Coupled with the fact that the Sador Bridge was blown up by the damned Black Iron Dwarves, the entire Riptide Castle had to be consumed from the town of Nanhai. Once the alliance blocks it, it will be like cutting off the lifeblood of Riptide Castle, and the consequences will be unimaginable!

Rommel, however, did not take the matter to heart at all, and replied unhurriedly: "There is nothing to worry about this!" He pointed to the goblin sitting across from him, "Let me introduce you, this is the shrewd goblin merchant Tagott. Gippok is also the regional president of the venture capital firm in Lordaeron. With their assistance, it would not be a problem to maintain the supplies of Fort Riptide for a short period of time! ”

The goblin merchant stood on the chair very cooperatively and saluted everyone: "It's a pleasure to have some business dealings with you!" ”

Jorad was still a little unconvinced: "So, what about a long time? Always trading with goblin merchants, can the Fort Riptide People's Army afford it? ”

Rommel shook his head: "It won't take too long!" In just one month, the Alaso coalition forces that have withdrawn their hands will be able to absorb or surrender the Blackwater pirates entrenched in Fadil Bay! When the time comes, we can form our own sea caravan and be self-sufficient! ”

As he spoke, he looked at Furstad and said, "I thought about it again, what would happen to the Thunderspear Clan trapped in the Alterac Mountains if the Hammer Dwarves refused to help?" Will they be able to find a goblin merchant to help deliver supplies? ”

"This," said Jorald, who had obviously not imagined that Rommel could be so insidious, that for a time there was no excuse to refute it

At this time, among the tribal armies on the other side, Da Salia, Xie Feng, and Qi Niu Wang all frowned, carefully analyzing the strange situation in front of them.

"All the battle reports in Nanhai Town are here! The changes in the Hills hills, the army of the Alliance is still in the dark, and they don't even know what to do with us? King Qi Niu shook the letter in his hand and asked the other two.

The situation was severe, and Dasalia didn't care about being angry with King Qi Niu, so he thought about it and replied, "Let's find a secret place to settle down and find out the current situation in the highlands first." ”

"Not bad!" Xie Feng also nodded. Ying said: "Settle down first, and then send scouts to spy on the alliance's defenses and movements, if there is anything to take advantage of, we will start"

"Is there any good place you can recommend?" Dasalia asked the two.

"Nope!" King Qi Niu shook his head very dryly: "This is also the first time I've come to Alashi, I've only studied it on the map before, and I don't know the specific situation at all!" ”

Dasalia glared at him angrily, and turned his head to stare at Xie Feng, who was frowning and thinking, hoping that he could have any good suggestions. Seeing this, King Qi Niu also looked at him

After pondering for a while, Xie Feng lived up to expectations and pointed to the north and said a name: "Northford Farm!" ”
