Volume IV Reign of Chaos 150 Historical Truths

I...... I used to like to be an outsider.

The advantage of being an outsider is that you will look at the problem from a different angle, and you may be more objective in drawing conclusions. But at that time...... I feel like I'm no longer an outsider. I can still sit idly by and ignore it, but no matter how I look from the wall, I'm still there.

But my identity is very embarrassing.

I am not a soldier under Arthas, nor a paladin under Uther, nor am I a subject of the kingdom of Lordaeron.

The first thing that came to my mind was Uther, I was a friend of Uther, and if it was a friend, I would support him and support him. This is the human nature of the people. But the situation at this time ...... I'm a little struggling.

Although I am emotionally on Uther's side, intellectually I am ...... Not in favor of him.

Of course, at first I did not approve of all of Arthas's approach, if he killed them all, it would inevitably lead to some unjust, false and wrongful convictions, and some people who might not have been infected would become unjustly killed. Although some of them have died in the fires in the city.

But if it is not solved quickly, the consequences may be even more serious when all the 100,000 people in the city really become walking corpses.

You may be wondering...... Then it would be better to seal the city, or send someone in and burn the city again.

All I can say is that it's too simplistic. Maybe he thought that it would be easy to deal with those things that were not human but still had the appearance of a human being.

For this kind of person, I suggest that he first go to the countryside to catch a few pigs to exercise, and then talk about this problem.

And...... Once the Cult of the Curse has succeeded in spreading the plague in the city, it is impossible to settle for this one city alone. Big cities are at risk, and so are small villages and towns. If enough troops are sent to bury the walking corpses, problems will arise elsewhere......

I can't take care of both ends.

This is a very real problem, and this place in East Wilde is far away from the royal city, and the more the emperor is farther away from the sky, the less interested he is to the royal power. It was evident in the Orc War. The number of Siveld's troops was not on the same level as the nobles who went to war.

The stronghold of Andohar was all scrapped overnight, do you know what that concept is?

Not to mention whether Steinbly's white-faced butcher will have any thoughts or actions after the news comes out, it is completely impossible to transfer troops from Siyverd on a large scale!

Faced with such a situation, I think that even if Arthas did not expect so many things, he must have felt the seriousness of this matter.

Take a step back...... Even if Arthas hadn't thought of this, his method was not the most humane, but it was ...... The most secure.

Of course...... Someone will say I'm ...... If you are a resident of Stratholme, your wife and your children are in Stratholme, you don't say that.

Scold...... If I could single-handedly stop the wheel of history, I wouldn't have let this kind of problem happen to my loved ones. When the world is in madness, the will of the individual ...... It's a fart.

Do you think I'm right? Lord Regent.

Fortunately, when we arrived, although the city gates were wide open, it seemed that the number of walking corpses coming out of the city was not large, and most of the walking corpses were still honestly staying in the city.

When we arrived in Stratholme, the army had already blockaded the city, but Stratholm would not have the support of the army in the near future, and if we let all these people out of the city, we would not be able to control them now.

Although the woman just now is not representative of everyone, there is one person who caused the mutated walking dead to go missing or was bitten to death because of her emotions......

This mutation doesn't just spread through food sources, you're the Lich King now, and I've heard that there are places to make walking corpses deep northwest of Icecrown Fortress...... There are many ways to do it, right. Scold...... There are so many ways to spread.

From a humanitarian point of view, Uther really does not have a big problem, but ...... Ideals often have to be subordinated to reality in the face of reality.

So...... Tut...... That's it.

Uther didn't really know much about the affairs of Andohar, maybe he was ...... at that time

I wonder if he thinks Stratholme's problems are similar to Brill's...... Maybe he thinks he can still be saved.

Is that it...... We were really in a hurry, if we didn't arrive a day earlier, but the next day, we would have seen something else at all, and what we would see would be a completely dead city, a ruined city and ...... Facing a wider range of infection.

One more thing......

Although we didn't catch up with Andorjar, we caught up with Stantsom. And what exactly is the situation, the best and worst, and how to deal with this series of problems...... I really didn't think about it. When we saw the corpses in the city that night, I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

But at this very moment, when the prince fell out with his mentor, I had to think about it, and I would have thought about what I would have done if I were him.

Hehe, you know my attitude, right?

In a way, I'm actually in favor of Alsace. Yes, I already said that.

Well, that was at first, and I did think it was cruel, but then it dawned on me that he wasn't exactly ...... Wrong.

Don't always take moral ...... In the chaotic times and serious historical events, morality is only a shining point, but it can certainly become the key to determining the course of history.

I don't know if anyone recorded that history, but in the end...... There was not a single one left of the city's guards, they were all dead!

It's the original army and convoy in the city of Stratholme, all dead!

Not killed by us, but ...... After leaving the city, the remaining soldiers gradually mutated.

Well...... Yes, they've been infected.

The time of onset after people are infected with the plague is very different, the elderly, children, and weak bodies are the first to get sick. A portion of young and middle-aged people will have a relatively longer duration of onset.

We didn't really eat when we arrived in Stratholme, knowing that the food in the city was contaminated and no one dared to eat it, and Alsace wouldn't let us eat it, and everyone knew about it, except for some water, or boiling water, or some people just used beer as a thirst quenching thing.

The deaths and injuries of the people we brought in were mainly caused by clashes with the walking dead, and of course a small number were caused by clashes with people in the city, but after all, this is still a minority.

It should be ...... now No one talks about the Stratholme massacre anymore, most people just remember that Arthas brutally murdered the inhabitants who had become, were about to become, or did not know if they could become walking corpses.

The people don't care more. Of course...... If Alsace hadn't become like that...... Perhaps the evaluation of him will be a different story.

Or say...... History...... You can laugh and scold and say whatever you want.

Anyway, Arthas will not stand up to refute it.

You see...... Let's discuss the problem...... You've got an opinion.

I'm not saying you shouldn't have your own ideas, and I'm not saying that if you think it's wrong, I'm right. It's normal for you to have your thoughts, I'm just telling you about the situation, and it's none of my business what you want to think.

Tut...... Do you want to talk well!

Arthas dismissed Uther from office...... You're not against it, are you?

Ha......

Of course it's useless if you disagree, I mean...... If it was you at the time.

yes, Uther...... It's a pity.

If the kid hadn't looked back, he might not have ...... It was so intense, but then when Arthas ordered the paladins to take a stand......

I would like to ask the Great Lord Regent, did your subordinates doubt your orders when you were in Stormwind? Or...... Will they disobey?

Would you be angry if someone disobeyed in public after you gave an order?

Belch...... You're a great man.

It's a pity...... Alsace doesn't have your belly, your spirit...... and wisdom. He chose ...... Removing Uther from his post, that's not all...... When he ordered the disbandment of the Knights of the Silver Hand...... I felt like my whole body was numb.

That command is both absurd and ridiculous. I have to say that he was really wrong...... It is also because of this that it has really planted a huge, very big bane!

Because at that time, not only Uther was dismissed from his position, but also did he go up and down...... A few other paladins even dropped their swords. This incident should be recorded in the history books.

I remember hearing about it, on the ship that attacked Northrend, or at least that's what the man said......

Uther angrily rebuked Arthas, "You are not my king yet! ”

Arthas angrily said to his mentor, "Be bold! ”

Uther said, "And even if you were, I would not obey your commands!" ”

Arthas said: "Then I can only regard your decision as treason!" ”

Uther was furious, "Are you crazy! ”

Arthas said, "I will remove you from all duties of the Knights of the Silver Hand!" Then he continued...... That's the point...... He continued: "All those who want to save the land, come with me, and the others get away...... and Arthas was about to rush into the city with his soldiers. At this time, Uther left alone, and some paladins also left with Uther.

It's all fart! Pure! An old grandmother who has never been to school and doesn't know a word can tell such a fairy tale!

Is this a fairy tale?

You should know what I'm talking about. But most people don't know how dangerous it was at the time! No...... Not dangerous...... It's dangerous!

Why is it a tragedy? That's because of this! It's all because of that! After Uther was dismissed...... He......

I admit that his prestige is to some extent completely superior to that of the king, but kingship is kingship, and orders are orders, and there is no ambiguity in this matter at all! When he was dismissed, all the paladins were stunned, and Arthas said, "If you continue to preach, I hope you can teach your subordinates who to obey." ”

But...... There is really that stunned green ...... He threw away the sword! That guy doesn't have a name, I don't know what it's called, he's brave, uh...... There is no hint of praise in this word.

He threw away the sword in his hand, and the guy's face was full of disdain, and his eyes were full of contempt and dissatisfaction with Arthas. This is his silent resistance!

And when two more people threw away their swords, I couldn't wait.

I can't bear it anymore......

Are they loyal? Yes, loyal, are they brave? Of course! Very brave! Are they good people? Must be ...... But good people, good intentions, bad things, and people who feel that they are right, are the most hateful.

It's all about pig teammates, and for those three people, it's not pig teammates...... Saying that a pig mate is the biggest insult to a pig!

What is it? This is a mutiny!

Mutiny!

It is taboo for this kind of thing to happen in the army! Absolute taboo!

Some people think there's something here! Isn't it just that the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other...... This kind of stupid beep I only have one idea is to kill him, this kind of person is not bad, but stupid, they will transform their stupidity into the destructive power is great,

I don't care about the lives of those three stupid beep paladins, I only care about Uther's.

Yes...... I killed him.

I move my hands.

Very neat.
