Chapter 131: The Elites in the Valley of the Hearth
"Gianna? What is she here for? ”
Not only was David puzzled, but even Fording didn't understand why this mage Dalaran, who was born in Kul Tiras, came to Hearthvale.
Tyran didn't know what effect his father was thinking about on his side, and thought that Tirio Ferdin's words were asking him, so he replied honestly, "Master Gianna Proudmore heard that we were fighting against the Scourge in the Valley of the Hearth, so he came to check on the situation on behalf of Dalaran. ”
"That's right!" Tirio Ferdin's head and David glanced at each other, both of them feeling that things might not be so simple: "It just so happens that I'm going to gather everyone to discuss some things, so let's invite Master Proudmore to participate!" ”
"Yes, Father!" Tyran didn't need to ask who he was going to invite to the meeting, and he knew very well about the current situation in Hearthvale, and the people who his father wanted to make any military deployment or operation, and who couldn't get around it anyway, had to be notified.
In addition to that, Gianna Proudmoor, who has just arrived in the Valley of the Hearth, is the representative of Dalaran.
When Tyran left, Ferding looked at David, "It's starting to change. ”
"Sooner or later, it's going to happen."
According to the original plot, Gianna and Arthas initially investigated the plague event in the kingdom of Lordaeron, and the first city they went to during their investigation was actually the Valley of the Hearth.
In other words, in the original plot, Hearthvale was a city that fell under the Scourge earlier than Stratholme, and later it was Tyran-Fording who joined up with the remnants of the Knights of the Silver Hand to reclaim Hearthvale from the undead and use it as a base for the Scarlet Crusaders.
Now, with the various operations of Fordin, the Valley of the Hearth has escaped, and Gianna and Arthas only passed through the Valley of the Hearth when they investigated, and found that there was no outbreak of the plague here and went elsewhere.
The ensuing developments are no different from the 'original history', with the outbreak of the plague of Stratholme, the massacre of Arthas, the dismissal of Uther, the disappointed departure of Gianna, and so on.
According to the original history, Gianna would return to the mage city of Dalaran and receive a prompt from the 'Prophet' to lead some of the survivors of Lordaeron to Kalimdor on the ship of Kurtiras, and usher in the crucial battle of her own hero: the Battle of Mount Hyjal.
In other words, according to the original development, Gianna would not have come to the Hearthvale after returning to Dara.
In addition, it was the 'prophet' who attracted the most attention to Fording and David.
Others don't know, but these two know that this so-called prophet is actually the last guardian of Azeroth, Medivan.
Gianna suddenly came to the Valley of the Hearth, was there any guidance from the prophet? Did the prophet have any thoughts about Fordin's actions?
"I can't think of an answer here, go meet that Miss Proudmoore!" Ferding waved his hand and motioned for David and the others to come with him: "By the way, I also introduce you to those colleagues of mine in the Valley of the Hearth." ”
Following Ferding out of the office, they quickly walked to a large conference room.
As they navigated the corridors, several of them saw the inside of the fortress of Lower Azeroth.
Seeing the gloomy environment with little light, David suddenly felt that he had made the right choice not to choose the castle as his residence.
"In terms of comfort, it's definitely 'modern architecture' that is better." That's why Laura agreed with the design, and she didn't want to live in a huge, gloomy castle.
When they came to the conference room, there were already several knights in armor waiting here, and Fording immediately introduced several people.
"This is Alessandros Mograini, this is Alfred Abidis."
The first to introduce David were two tall knights in heavy armor, and when he heard their names, David understood why he had introduced them in the first place.
At present, the composition of the Knights of the Silver Hand in the Valley of the Hearth is quite complicated: there is a part of the Knights of the Silver Hand who was originally stationed in the Valley of the Hearth, under the orders of Tyran Fordin, and this part is also the old subordinate of Fortin, and it is Tirio Fording who is the easiest to transfer and command.
Some of them came from the regions of East Wild, mainly the part that Uther had originally led, and they had lost their commander, and after defecting to the Hearthvale, they were willing to obey Old Fording, and there was no trouble in mobilizing.
Others were led to the Valley by other commanders of the Silver Hand Order, including the knights led by Alexandros Mograini and Alfred Abidis.
"This is the commander from Ironforge, Burim Goldhammer."
If Fording was able to defend the Valley of the Hearth, the biggest help was not Alfred Abidis and Alexandros Mograini, but the help of the dwarves of Ironforge.
Not only did they provide a large number of artillery, but the dwarves also sent elite gunners and musketeers to directly participate in the defense of the Hearthdale, and the commander of these dwarven forces was the dwarven commander in front of them.
At the time of the introduction, people came to the conference room one after another, and Fording introduced everyone to David step by step.
Including the Priest Ethan Lien, the man responsible for teaching the way of the Light of Tyran when Tirio Ferding was not in the Valley of the Hearth; Falbanks, Mograine's chief advisor;
Alessandros Mograini's son, Renaud Mograini, as well as Darien Mograini, Alfred Abydis's daughter, Bridget Abydis, and many more.
and Gianna Prodmoor who suddenly came to Hearthvale, the leader of Kul Tiras, daughter of Alliance Admiral Dalin Prodmore, and Master Kenrito from Dalaran.
It was at this time that the only surviving member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, Galia Minahir, also arrived.
"This is Baron David Glamorgan, who came to help when he learned about my situation here." When introducing David to the crowd, Fording did not explain his origins, only emphasizing that David came to help because of his personal relationship.
Although he didn't know where David was a baron, he was willing to help in this situation, and everyone present welcomed David.
Galia-Minahir even thanked David in the name of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
"Your Royal Highness the princess doesn't have to be so polite, the Scourge Legion is the mortal enemy of all the living, I just made a living person, what should be done."
David's response made everyone present feel good, and they felt that although this Baron Glamorgan was not a member of the Knights of the Silver Hand, judging from his performance, he was definitely an excellent follower of the Holy Light......
After gossiping, Fording began to discuss with the others the plan to fight out of the Hearth Valley and launch a counterattack against the Scourge Legion.
To David's surprise, all the commanders present actually agreed.
In the eyes of these paladins, after stabilizing the Hearthvale defense line and resisting the onslaught of the Scourge, it was logical to launch a counterattack.
These knights don't have the idea of holding on to the Hearthvale and waiting for the right moment to fight back.
Alfred Abydis and Alexandros Mograini even stated that they wanted to kill Arthas, kill this monarch who betrayed the kingdom and people of Lordaeron, and pay for everything they had done.
David was stunned as he watched from the side, deeply feeling how incompatible he was with this group of paladins, it seemed that he couldn't be a paladin, not just because he wasn't strong enough.
When Fording was discussing the battle plan with several commanders, David did not interject, but listened quietly on the side, and even if anyone asked for his opinion, he would only modestly say that he was not very proficient in combat, and just listen to your arrangements.
By the time Fordin, Mograini, Abydis, and Berim Golden Hammer began to discuss the details, David stepped back and felt a kick on his heel from the side.
When he turned around, he found that it was Laura, but Laura glanced at him and asked him to pay attention to Gianna not far away: "The daughter of the sea has been looking at you since just now." ”
"Maybe you're wondering where I'm coming from?"
David glanced at Gianna, who happened to collide with the other's gaze.
Seeing this, Gianna no longer hid aside and secretly observed, but walked over generously.
At this time, the four commanders were still discussing the details, especially which route should be taken when fighting back in the Hearth Valley and clearing the Scourge Legion? How can you tell where Alsace is at the moment? Is it to clear the surrounding natural disasters first, and then encircle and suppress Alsace? Or do you kill Arthas in one go and destroy the culprit first? Turn your head and clean the kingdom of the undead?
It took a few people to discuss it for a while before they could reach a consensus, and at this point, Bridget Abydis, for example, was discussing similar issues with Tyran Ferdin, as well as Mograine's two sons, expressing their opinions in small circles.
David and the others gathered into another small circle, and Gianna stood alone on the side, while walking towards David.
"Hello, I'm Gianna Proudmoore and I'm a mage."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Master Proudmoor." The other party did not mention the daughter of the leader of Kur Tiras, but only mentioned his identity as a mage, and David called the other party a mage.
"Just call me Gianna." Gianna looked at David curiously: "May I ask where Baron Glamorgan is from?" ”
"I'm from Wintertown." Seeing Gianna frowning, David seemed to be thinking about where Winter Town was, so he added, "It's a very remote town, and it's normal not to have heard of it." ”
Gianna nodded, and then chatted with David without saying a word.
And at this moment, where no one could see, a blonde dwarf was frantically pounding against an invisible wall, shouting, "Let me in!! ”
