Volume III Kuroshio 96 The Siege of Lordaeron

What would happen if you said I was going to stab him to death?

If you want to say that I can escape, you don't have to doubt it.

I'm just assuming...... What would happen if I stabbed him to death? Is it to eliminate harm for the people and become a hero, or to be labeled as an assassin of Zhongliang?

Ha...... I hadn't really thought about it before.

But there is one thing we have to say, at that time, the orcs dared to pass from human territory so blatantly...... If you say it sounds good, it is bold, and if it sounds bad, it is called recklessness, they are simply gambling, how can they have the confidence to gamble? If there are no guarantees, do you dare to give your back to the enemy?

I wouldn't dare if you called me!

It is said that the king is crazy, what kind of power must be there to make the king crazy?

But how the orcs managed to get King Auden to agree to surrender at once, I don't know. I haven't been able to figure this out until now.

I think it's a bit far-fetched to hear about the powerful magic in Auriden's mouth, and I'm scared to death just by hearing about it? I don't believe it.

I left the castle in style after I had a cordial conversation with Oriden, and I told him that I had been sent by Terenus, and that if you killed me, it would show that you were determined to break with the Alliance.

Actually, this thing ......

Even if he did kill me now, if he did do what I said in the future, Tyrenus would not have any problem with my death.

But he didn't.

When I left the castle, I met the brothers I had been with when I was Oriden's personal bodyguard. Ha! Those guys are pretty good, but it's a pity that they can only be Ouriden's guards, and it's more than enough to be an officer with their skills.

When I saw them, they looked at me in amazement, and they thought I was dead. I said I had come to talk to Oriden about something, but they saw that I wasn't dressed properly. And everyone who comes in and out of the castle during the day they will know.

But they didn't stop me. Tut......

When I got out of the King's Castle, I met a man on the street. Hum...... Now they're really ...... Very few people know about them anymore, and even fewer people know about them. Now that the war is over, these guys have become a permanent neutral force.

None of them will offend, and no one will want to offend them. This bunch of guys is scarier than Gilnes' catfish.

They are killers.

Yes, Ravenhold. Don't you know catfish?

They are a black hand of Gilneis, an organization supposedly run by Lord Vincent Goldfrey, and as far as I know, they were responsible for the killing of Oriden's own brother in Lordaeron. There's a lot more to it later.

Not long after I left the King's Castle, I found a guy on the corner who had been in contact with me in Tarummere, and his name was Abel, and he was a good informant.

He was waiting for me!

This guy can wait here for me, it seems that he has been eyeing me for a long time, I don't know how he recognized me, I feel a little scary, you know! I really didn't expect it to come out again! When was I targeted?

Since he had his eye on me and didn't do anything, what did they think when they put me in the castle that night?

And also......

Alas...... It's troublesome to be targeted by this group of people! I don't know if something that happens in the future will have anything to do with my presence in Alterac, I don't know.

Their master, Duke Ravenhold, is so low-key that even the vast majority of the Alteracs are unaware of his existence. I don't remember any records of their participation in the war, and how they handled the affairs of the kingdom of Alterac after the war, and I haven't heard of them, anyway, I haven't heard anything about them, as if this group of people didn't exist.

At that time, he asked me if the war was going well.

I asked him how you found mine.

He said that I was different from ordinary people, and I was very recognizable.

Do you think I'm different?

Hum...... You're it!

I told him that Ouriden might have made a big mistake, a big mistake that could not be forgiven, and I warned them that it was best to take sides, and that if they missed, it would not be as simple as not having a reward.

The guy let me go without saying anything.

I hurried out of Alterac and did not dare to stay in the city for a moment, although I wanted to see Sean's son...... That can only be said later.

Then I hurried after Tulayan, and in order to get a horse from the officers and soldiers in Andohar, I did not exhaust my horse to death. But by the time I got to Lordaeron, the battle was over.

Ha, that's a lot of effort!

I originally thought that the orcs attacked Lordaeron and could not kill him in the dark, and the scene was magnificent enough to write five epic poems to praise, but the real situation is said to be not so heroic.

To say that this person who writes history can just open his mouth to say an ordinary thing in a daze, or say a major thing in a prosaic way. There is a world of difference between what is described and what is actually written.

Don't really believe it.

The orc forces attacked in two directions, one by boat directly under the city of Lordaeron, and the other by crossing the mountains to reach Lordaeron.

I've had the pleasure of skimming through some of the reports on those things, some of which are pure nonsense. If I were the king...... I'll just give you an analogy: if I were, I would slaughter all these people who write history.

Did you say there were such big boats on Lake Lodamir? How much engineering equipment can be loaded on a ship? Whether it was possible to mount the rush cart on the ship or the arrow tower on the ship, I admit that the orcs did bring artillery when they attacked Lordaeron, but that's all.

Those who have crossed the mountains...... I wondered, didn't the group of people who wrote history have brains? Pushing carts, catapults, and arrow towers over mountains and mountains?

The person who writes this kind of history must have a bad brain! And the orcs were in such a hurry at that time, how could they have time to make these things. Either it is said that the group of people who wrote the book mistook the children of the people and brought disaster to the country and the people. Damn it.

But I'm not talking about you, you can still record what I said in its entirety, right?

I also asked some of the people who participated in the battle in the defense of Lordaeron, well, yes, Tulayan and his little girlfriend, who was hundreds of years older than him, did not participate in this battle, and the orcs were already about to withdraw when the Silver Hand arrived at Lordaeron. So they fled without much fighting the orcs.

Our Varian was in the city at the time, so you can ask him about it, and maybe he can give you some ideas and clues. And as far as I know, there are a few things that should happen in the Battle of Lordaeron.

I'm talking about things that I think are more reliable.

King Terenus was surprised to learn of Alterac's betrayal, but he had to face the impending catastrophe seriously, as the sudden appearance of the orcs caught them off guard. I think it's the guys who took a boat ride from the lake. Those guys came with cannons.

These things are available to the dwarves, but they are not available in the north, so they are not suppressed when they appear. And there must have been orc shamans and some guys who could use spells.

Before the orcs learned to wield those evil powers, some of them were adept at wielding the power of nature, wind, fire, thunder and lightning. And those who are good at using such spells are called shamans. It's the equivalent of our magicians here.

And the status and respect of these people are far greater than those who use evil spells and necromancy. If it weren't for the war, those who used evil spells would have been hanged in the clan, as I later learned.

The collapse at the southern gate of Lordaeron was very powerful, it was definitely not bombarded, their artillery was not so powerful, so it was most likely the destruction caused by the shaman.

Another point is that King Terenus personally went into battle to kill the enemy, this kind of thing can be done, do you really want him to go into battle to kill the enemy? This is simply. However, the king put on his armor and went around the city, and this incentive was much more effective than giving some money to the soldiers.

However, in the face of the sudden attack of the orcs, the soldiers and civilians in Lordaeron City did show extraordinary perseverance, determination and courage. And the command and military talent of the leader of the orcs is also top-notch.

The guy's name was Orgrim, and the vanguard bit Lordaeron, and the follow-up suddenly appeared and directly cut off the reinforcements sent from Brill to Lordaeron.

If this soldier goes to the city, he can be a top soldier, but when he encounters orc infantry and wolf cavalry in the field, most of the time it is for nothing, and at this time, the silver hand has not yet arrived, and the Lordaeron Knights do not dare to attack rashly. Thousands of troops from Brill to Lordaeron were eaten by the orcs.

If it weren't for the dispatch of Bedgrit, Windling, and Soridan, the orc's attack would be really hard to say.

Duke Gregor Agamande was not only rich but also shrewd, and he had a lord named Nicholas Buzan who also earned his master enough face. Not to mention that after the war, when Greco was rewarded for meritorious deeds, he was praised and rewarded. That Sir Keloron of Soridan was good, but he died heroically...... It's okay, anyway, it's to leave an inheritance for your children and grandchildren.

The Death Knight didn't show his strength in the siege battle at all in this battle, but he was really good at holding back reinforcements. There were no paladins at the time, which was one of the reasons why reinforcements were slow to arrive in Lordaeron.

However, after the war, Terenus invested in the cultivation of paladins, which probably really scared the orcs, and when it came to it...... That guy has aged so fast since the Siege of Lordaeron, is that scared? I remember seeing that his hair was still blonde before the war, and how the hair on his head turned white after the war. There are also more wrinkles on the face, and it is obviously much older.

Do you say it's because you can't sleep or because you're scared when the orcs flood in?

It is said that Queen Lyanne has never been pregnant since.
