270, Arathi Battlefield

The more high-ranking people are, the less they care about the life or death of the people at the bottom, they only care about whether their position is stable.

Standing on a high platform, the people below can only look up at you densely; on the tall building, the people below are less than the size of a palm; if you stand on the top of the mountain, the people below are like ants like sesame seeds, do you care about the feelings of ants?

It's cruel to say this, some people will definitely say that power comes from the people, water can carry a boat and overturn a boat, etc., but the reality is like this, ancient kings often said that they love the people like sons, but don't forget that there is a sentence before, that is, filial piety comes out under the stick, to put it bluntly, human nature is selfish, everything the ruler is for the stability of his power, and as long as he kills those who like to create problems, the power will naturally be stable.

The ruler and the ruled are inherently opposed, but they cannot be separated.

For the sake of their own stability, the Manchu Tartar slaughtered tens of millions of Han people, killed the bloody people, and left only the people who were afraid of being killed and constantly enslaved, and then tampered with history, living in self-deception, and the former world's first power fell to the extent that anyone could bully it in a few hundred years.

Zhang Li hates such people very much, maybe because he was a small person, or maybe he was arrested and tortured inhumanely, so he hates power so much, especially the kind that looks ugly.

"I think I'm a person with a problem in my heart, but this kind of thing is still beyond my bottom line. "Everything Zhang Li has done so far has a purpose, even if he spends a lot of money to maintain the orphanage, it is just to gain prestige, and by the way, he can also attract a group of die-hard people to work for him, and he has been constantly brainwashing these children who have received his favor, educating them, and establishing a value that is beneficial to his future troubles.

If you want to subvert the human countries and establish a kingdom of your own, it is impossible to achieve it without the assistance of people who work together, but if you let him slaughter more than 10,000 people, just to absorb about 500 subordinates, he can't do this kind of thing, although the more than 10,000 people were not killed by the Syndicate himself, but they were also borrowed from the hands of ogres, there is no difference.

"Duke Facurrest has gone mad, but this is understandable, from the lord of a country to a grasshopper, it is normal for him to be so unscrupulous. "This is a guest room in the castle, where Zhang Li and Althea are arranged, and Althea is now exchanging some intimate topics for women at the ladies' banquet held by Prince Garin's princess, so she is not here.

It was the air that spoke, an invisible assassin who belonged to Raven Horton.

"Seriously, I really don't want to have anything to do with this group of people, especially to help them sell stolen goods and provide strategic materials, which will make me feel like an accomplice, and how many more tragedies will be caused by helping this group of people grow stronger?"

"But if you don't kill Duke Facurrest and his vassals, the tragedy will only increase, human greed is endless, you have seen what they have done, if they are not solved as soon as possible, their children and grandchildren will still inherit their will, as long as they can put an end to this, a small sacrifice is acceptable, this is a just sacrifice. ”

"Haha......" Zhang Li shook his head speechlessly: "Do you know? What I hate the most is this kind of overall view of the superiors, sacrificing the lives of the majority of people for the sake of a small number of people, who has the right to decide the life and death of others? But ah...... It's only when you become superior that you find that something you have to do......"

"Okay, you go down, don't contact me again if there is no emergency in the future, I will find a way to contact them. ”

..................

A few days later, order was finally restored to Fort Riptide, but the atmosphere of grief still hung over the city, and not many people were buried, as most of the dead could not find their bodies, and they were all in the stomach of the ogre.

The spies sent by Marcus to follow the ogre deserters had already found the clues, and sure enough, there were traces of orcs in the ogre's cave, and to their anger, a group of orcs numbering at least 10,000 people attacked several human villages, and built fortifications there, as if they were going to live for a long time.

This angered Prince Garin, he gathered his vassals, hand-picked 10,000 troops, and then united with the Seventh Legion of a total of 20,000 soldiers to crusade against these orcs, but this did not go well, the orcs are generally higher than humans, plus they still have more than 3,000 ogres in the array, humans are at a disadvantage on the frontal battlefield.

As a country that is a little smaller than the average principality, it is already the limit of 10,000 horses, thanks to the large number of refugees they have absorbed from Lordaeron.

After all, after the syndicate incident, they didn't dare not stay behind in various places to prevent this group of bottomless bastards from causing any more damage.

But despite being at a relative disadvantage, the orcs are not in a much better situation than humans, after all, the human side is only professional soldiers, and the orcs are all on the move.

"I told you a long time ago, don't stay there for long! Don't stay there for long!" Hammer Town, once a human town, but it has decayed in the long struggle against trolls, and the human style here can still be seen in the architectural style.

The abandoned town was somehow overrun by the orcs, and the orcs who wandered around Arathi joined the new tribe after learning about Thrall, and then learned that the new tribe wanted to gain a foothold in the eastern kingdom, so they began to attack the humans.

If you want to develop a stable force, production is indispensable, and if you only rely on plunder, you will never be able to grow and develop, but in Arashi, most of the areas suitable for cultivation are occupied by humans, and the tribe is at war with the alliance anyway, and they have no psychological pressure to occupy the enemy's things.

As for whether dragging the alliance here will have an impact on the Scourge campaign, if they drag their feet and lead to the defeat of the front line, the Scourge Legion will go straight to the Hills Hills, and the living world will be devastated, they will become sinners in the living world.

If you were to blame them for this reason, they would definitely say that the Horde is also fighting against the Scourge, the Forsaken are always at war, the Orcs will attack any undead who are not led by the Dark Ranger, and although it is Lordaeron who fights against the main force of the Scourge, they always have a contribution.

Besides, the main force against the Scourge is Lordaeron, not you Riptide Castle, and you can always find a lot of reasons anyway, and you can't expect to reason with a bunch of hard-hearted guys who want to compete with you for survival space.

"It's all because you're cowardly! if you send troops, we can wipe out all the humans!" said Margsol, snarking the orc shaman in front of him.

He had warned Magsol that he had actually sent someone to inform him after the Seventh Legion had been discovered by the orc scouts, but his group of ogres had apparently been too happy in the city to drag their feet and suffer a great defeat, and now they began to accuse him in turn.
