Chapter 259: Knights and Men Live in the World
The northern region of the Eastern Kingdom Continent is already in flames of war at this moment.
Because of the sudden backlash of the Dark Queen Sylvanas, the Great Lich Kel'thugad did not follow Arthas on an expedition to the continent of Kalimdor.
After hearing the news, Arthas ordered the Great Lich not to continue to collect ships crossing the sea, but to stay on the Eastern Kingdom continent, and handed over all the control of the undead legions on the entire continent to Kel'thugad for command.
However, the undead legions left on the Eastern Kingdom continent were really not the main elite troops, so Kel'thugad was beaten by the army of the Forsaken of the Dark Queen, and the region was lost one after another, and finally had to retreat to the Eastern Plague Lands.
Of course, after the arrival of the Scourge Floating Fortress Naxxramas, Kel'thugad was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and lead his main forces to ascend to Naxxramas, followed by a period of recuperation, from time to time he would send batches of troops into the Eastern Plaguelands region to strengthen his control over this place.
Coupled with the undead support from Stratholme City, the Great Lich is also firmly in control of the Eastern Plaguelands.
Naturally, the Scarlet Crusaders were very unhappy with this situation, and they used the Hand Valley of the Western Plaguelands and the Hand of Tyr Fortress in the Eastern Plaguelands as strongholds, and began to storm the two undead Scourge strongholds.
At this moment, the Scourge Legion and the Scarlet Crusaders are fighting in the East and West Plagues.
The Scarlet Crusaders did not send a main force to the Forsaken who occupied the Tirisfal Glade, but only ordered the army of the Scarlet Abbey to encroach and expand.
After all, Sylvanas, the Queen of Darkness, is much less threatening than the Undead Scourge, but they soon realize that this is a huge mistake of thought.
Oh, and another important reason why there was no full-scale war with Sylvanas was the pressure from Quel'Thalas.
The Sun King, Kael'thas, has made it clear that Sylvanas will always be a member of the High Elf Windranger family, and whoever wants to kill her will be the enemy of the High Elves.
Oh, we don't care anyway, you just can't touch her.
Therefore, the Scarlet Crusaders chose to compromise temporarily, except for the branch of the Scarlet Abbey that was fighting with the Forsaken, the main force of the army was slamming Kel'thugad, the great lich that his grandmother did not love and his uncle did not love.
The High Lord of the Ashes, Alexandros Mograini, the noble paladin who has made a name for himself in this war of natural disasters.
He held aloft his artifact, the Ember Bringer, as he wiped out waves of undead scourges, and the scorching light of punishment purified all these filthy and evil beings into ashes scattered by the wind.
The High Lord of the Ashes wanted revenge, not only for Lordaeron, but also for his youngest son, Cesaris.
Although his youngest son chose the path of a mage, he still has the blood of a paladin in his body and is a heroic warrior.
At the last moment, he resolutely chose to blow himself up and die with the undead natural disaster, which made Mograini both proud and sad.
Rest in peace, my child, Father is so proud of you.
To the great lord's relief, his second son Darion was also brave and good at fighting, and he saw his shadow from Darion.
But the eldest son Renault made the big lord very dissatisfied, so for the cultivation of this eldest son, Mograini has always been very demanding.
A recent incident made him even more furious, and his eldest son, Renaud, fell in love with his adopted daughter Whitemayne, and this incestuous relationship was simply difficult for Mograine to accept.
The High Lord of the Ashes has always been steadfast in the spirit of chivalry, humility, honor, valor, sacrifice, mercy, faith, honesty, and justice, these tenets are the qualities of a paladin.
He also believes that the treatment of ladies should be respectful and polite, a qualified knight only has the obligation to protect ladies, but not the right to possess, and feelings and sensual desires will make paladins lose their fearless will to fight bravely.
Although this idea is a bit ridiculous, the Great Lord himself did it, and taught his sons in this way.
However, the eldest son, Renault, was extremely dissatisfied, believing that his father had interfered with his relationship with Whitemayne, and was even more jealous of his father's favor for his younger brother Darian.
Moreover, Renault was eager to ask his father, "Since a good knight has no right to possess a lady, where did our sons come from?
Renaud didn't understand his father's noble and profound thinking, and he didn't want to understand that he had never been a saint full of justice and fairness, and he couldn't be like his father.
One of the elders who founded the Scarlet Crusade with his father, the Grand Lord of Dasuohan, was very understanding and sympathetic to him, which made Renaud feel very happy and grateful, and he began to communicate with Dasuohan frequently, and the influence of Dasuohan's words on him deepened.
But he didn't know that at this moment, the soul in Da Suohan's body was no longer the noble and benevolent paladin he once was, and a high-level demon that the world thought had been beaten back into the twisted void had taken over his body.
Of course, Banazar was not dead, but the last time he was attacked by divine power, he himself was greatly injured and extremely weak.
However, the Dreadlord was reluctant to leave the flowery world of Azeroth, so he infiltrated the Scarlet Crusader-controlled territory of Stratholme, secretly killed Dathohan in a sneak attack, and took possession of the paladin's body.
Now, he plans to sow chaos in the shadows and stealthily corrupt the Scarlet Crusaders.
Well, don't put gold on Banazal's face, in a way, the Scarlet Crusaders don't need any demonic corruption, because the best thing that humans are a magical race can do is destroy themselves.
If nothing else, let's just say that the Valley of the Hearths in the Western Plaguelands, the largest military fortress city of the Scarlet Crusaders, strictly belongs to Tyran Fortin, who is the first heir and leader.
And now, the young paladin is just a puppet on the surface, and the Scarlet Archbishop Illison is the actual ruler behind the scenes.
For the sake of internal stability, all parties of the Scarlet Crusaders acquiesced to the existence of this status quo, which is the saddest and most helpless thing.
The Grand Lord of Mograine can only compromise on this, and people have to accept some cruel realities when they live in the world.
If you want to save the country from fire and water, and you want to unite in your army, then you have to consider the needs of your subordinates.
The Valley of the Hearth, now controlled by Elisonn, was able to provide a steady supply of supplies to the Scarlet Crusaders, as well as training grounds for soldiers and shelters for the wounded, and his role was self-evident.
And Tyran Furding... Well, he's just a young kid, and although he bears the name of the son of Tirio Fordin, that's all there is to it.
At least it's not taking your place, which is pretty good, isn't it?
In this regard, Princess Kalia, located on the island of Fenris in the Silver Pine Forest, has the most say.
I'm not wrong about what I said, I can only rely on myself.
The power of the Lordaeron Restoration Army must not be handed over to anyone other than the Minahir family.
