Volume III Kuroshio 51 Preparations
He's a character...... A man who has gone down in history.
Tulayan...... Uh, Anduin...... Both of them.
At that time, I admired his performance in addition to admiration, I would never be able to do this kind of thing, I could go into battle and kill the enemy, but in the face of these guys, I felt a little unable to open my mouth. What courage it takes.
He has engraved his name in the history of mankind like no other.
And what he did next was really ...... I threw myself to the ground.
He said......
Anduin Lothar had led an army to fight the orcs for many years, and he should have more experience dealing with these alien monsters than anyone who had ever seen them.
Lothar, on the other hand, fought back and forth with the orcs, even driving them back into the forest at one point. This shows that his command ability should be no more flexible and effective than that of a general who has not fought for many years. The iron wall of the dwarf bronze statue only lasted for half a year.
Many people know that Anduin Lothar is the last bloodline of Soladin the Great of the Arathso Empire, and he ...... He has a very noble bloodline, and he is also the regent of the Stormwind Kingdom, and his status is not lower than that of any general or nobleman.
But he never boasted about it, and from the day the refugees of the Stormwind Kingdom landed on the beach in the town of South Sea, Anduin's actions were remarkable. He has always solved problems for the people, and even in the face of great difficulties, he has been protecting his people from the plague, and I have seen how he treats his soldiers like him, and all of them are loyal to him and willing to die for him. But he never thought about how to protect his soldiers.
He is not only a general, but also a good general who loves nurse soldiers, he is not only a good general who loves nurse soldiers, but also a good general who can lead them to survive to victory.
And at this time, we need hope, we need heroes, we need a true leader to lead us to victory.
And just now, many factors led us to argue and doubt each other, so at this time we need a fair, just, just, objective, and selfless person to lead this army. And Anduin Lothar, a gentleman from the Far South, will have no scruples, no suspicions, no politics, the only thing he can do is lead the army to victory.
Victory! Victory! Victory!
Terenus didn't interrupt him, but I saw Tulayan's father's face turn white with fright. But when it shouted the cries of victory continuously, the hall unconsciously burst into applause.
Terenus nodded, he smiled and nodded at Commander Darin, who smiled and nodded at Terenus, and at this moment, the applause in the hall suddenly became louder.
No one cheered, but everyone stared at Lothar as she sat there, and Lothar stood up when King Terenus stood up and smiled and applauded Lothar. Several other kings also applauded and congratulated Lothar. I could see his excitement, and I felt a sigh of relief in my heart.
The banquet in the evening was still grand, with light singing and dancing, staggered and crowded.
Lothar showed off his huge amount of alcohol, and the people who toasted him were not a hundred but eighty, and some of the people who toasted later felt less benign. But he coped with it very, very decently.
It's just that after going back at night, it's a bit of a toss, and he did drink too much that day. So I asked Tulayan to heal him with the Holy Light after Lothar returned, and who knows what will happen the next day. Is it true that he suffers when he is drunk? Gee......
The next day, the intense preparations began, and I realized that the job of commander was not so easy to do, anyway, I was worried about doing this job, and I had a headache.
This departure work still dragged on for more than a month. Yes...... More than a month. How can you say it for more than a month...... It's complicated in my heart. But it's more impatient, inexplicably impatient.
By the time Lothar and his army marched out of Lordaeron, the people on both sides of the street were in the middle of the road, and for most people, the war had little impact on their lives. I didn't see any worry or pain in their eyes. Maybe they have the impression that we formed an alliance and went out to war, and that's it.
It's not killing each other, it's not the contradictions of the kingdoms, it's fighting an alien monster.
Maybe as long as they don't kill each other, they don't feel so uncomfortable in their hearts.
It's all my guessing.
Kul Tiras's navy is constantly scouting, but I'm sure the orcs have already spotted our scouts. We didn't dare to stop for a moment, heading towards the Great Plains of Hillsbrad.
Yes...... I almost forgot. For more than a month before the expedition, I had been in the church with Varian, as well as Tulayan, Uther.
I taught Varian swordsmanship, Uther trained Arthas, and the little princess didn't like the female red at all, preferring to stay in the training ground and watch Arthas get covered in mud.
Lothar and King Terenus discuss the matter of the war together every day, as the most important member of the alliance, Lordaeron has to bear a lot of personnel, materials, money, etc. this time, and the various countries have promised well here, and they will not be so happy after returning.
By the time all the armies were dragging around Talenmir, it was already the height of summer, and the weather was very hot.
The Stormgards did not arrive, they guarded against the Orcs on the Saldo Bridge, and the Alteracs, the Gilneths, our men and the soldiers of Lordaeron gathered in the fields west of Taren Mill.
Hum...... The Gilneys are really ...... And they sent thousands, thousands...... The assembly place was on the territory of the Alteracs, and Alterac also claimed to have 60,000 troops to mobilize, but only 20,000 actually gathered in Talenmere.
Talenmere, this place is very familiar to me, and I started training when I got here.
I don't usually like to watch the infantry practice advancing and defending in formation, it's not interesting, of course the cavalry is like that. So I was more with Uther, the people of the church.
In order to better cooperate with the war, the Northern See sent a large number of priests. They were summoned from churches in various places, the largest of which were the major cities, Lordaeron, Stratholme, Gilneth, Andorhar, etc., and especially the great monastery of Tirisfa, where all the monks and priests were dispatched.
This group of people is very interesting, I like to be with them, some are very old-fashioned, some are playful, some are lifeless, some are bright-eyed. But in this place, most of the time they are very strict.
Master Fao is also here, to be honest, the body at such an age is not only mentally strong and tough, this master usually does not squeak, but when he lectures to thousands of people, his voice is loud, that momentum! Tut! I'm not even sure if I'll be half as healthy as he is by the time he arrives.
I always sat on the periphery of their lectures and watched the guys listening to the lectures, and this scene made me feel very relatable.
Although I look at that large group of people, but think about the tens of thousands of soldiers on the training ground, I feel that there will be a little less people. Moreover, there are not many people in this group who have truly mastered the path of the Holy Light and used the power of the Holy Light. The way they look now is at most lifting the wounded on the battlefield, bandaging wounds, and so on.
But when you think about it, that's all you can do.
Master Fao led them to silence over and over again, and even asked them to hold hands and then let their holy light be transmitted to more people.
I...... I don't feel what it is like for the Light to happen to me, even if I try to think about it.
And through the guidance of a few beginners of the Holy Light, there are indeed more than a dozen people who have been able to summon the Holy Light.
And one of them I remember a little bit, I saw him at the great monastery of Tirisfa, and I remember his name very well...... Fairbanks. I was really impressed by his old-fashioned face. There's also a guy named Ethan Lion that I think sounds familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen him or heard of it. There was also a very beautiful little girl named Demytia that I had never heard of.
There is another one that impresses me, which is simply not too impressive! Yes......
Hehe...... She is the lady of the lord of Radiant Manor, the wife of Alexandros Mograini. Yelena, that's her name. She is a very gentle woman, with a very dignified appearance, the kind of woman who is not stunning but looks very comfortable.
She went on an expedition with her husband, and she was the first to comprehend the way of the Light.
I don't know why, but I'm extremely impressed with her anyway. Maybe it's because of her husband......
The training of the church continued, but Lothar was not satisfied with this training, not only because of the speed of training and the fact that there were not many people who actually learned, but most importantly, because of the ...... They are not capable of conducting high-intensity operations.
Although they are indeed brave, I am talking about the majority.
But they could not put on dozens of kilograms of armor and ride on horses to fight! Lothar wanted to turn this power into a weapon, just like Uther.
I was present when Lothar came to Master Fao to talk about this, and Master Fao looked solemn, and Uther looked even more solemn, and I looked at their faces and my heart beat a drum.
Uther explained to Lothar the reason for the difficulty, which I found a little unreliable after listening to it at the time...... But I didn't squeak.
He said that in order to master the power of the Light, one must first be a pure or relatively pure person.
I don't agree with the first thing he said, how can there be any pure or purer people. Of course, I admit that Fao, Uther, and Tulayan are indeed quite pure. Uther, in particular, is almost ...... He knows everything, and he never hides it.
In the second point, Uther said, the heart of this man determines the strength of the strength.
I kindly agree with that, although I don't quite understand what he means.
Thirdly, he said, it is necessary to be a steadfast believer in the Light.
Yes...... I don't know about Lordaeron, but Alterac and Gilneth don't seem to be as passionate about the Light in those places. Alterac, in particular, is almost entirely a bandit in this Bird Country, and their trust in the Light is far less effective than a glass of wine.
And this place in Gilneth ...... Hum...... It's not that I speak ill of them, I don't look down on the people in that place at all.
There are a few points that I can't remember, but there are a lot of rules and regulations anyway. I looked at Uther with a little puzzlement, I wondered where there were so many rules.
Lothar said that he had seen several masters channeling the Holy Light into those believers, and that the result was indeed miraculous, and he wanted to try it.
It's not that he wants to try, it's that he wants his knights to try.
