Quel'Salas, Silvermoon City, Court of the Sunseeker.

Sarren is busy outside, and Kael'thas is not easy at home.

Don't look at the old nobles who sit on the empty mountain and eat the mountain have lost power, the heritage accumulated over thousands of years is not a joke, and there are their shadows in all aspects of the High Elf society.

Obstructed by these dead but unrigid hundred-legged insects, Kael'thas has been unusually slow in his reforms.

Under the secret fanning of some people, Silvermoon City even broke out a large-scale civil protest at one time.

Actually, this is also very understandable.

In the words of the barrage, it is not so easy for people who have been lying flat for a long time to stand up again.

The people of Quel'Salas have long been accustomed to high-welfare, low-intensity work, and have been doing so for thousands of years.

Now that Azeroth is in turmoil, the High Elves can no longer enjoy it.

The Burning Legion outside the territory is gearing up, and the ancient gods hiding in the shadows of the planet are also eyeing each other, and internal and external troubles are coming.

According to the plan of Sarren and Kael'thas, after the Second Orc War is over and Azeroth returns to peace, Quel'Salas will take advantage of this period of peace to carry out drastic reforms to get the people who are accustomed to lying down back to their feet and struggle.

Of course, this is not easy, there is a way from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift is difficult.

Sarean's strength is to plan the big picture, and he is not good at practical matters in the domestic affairs.

He also needs to ask for the help of Barrage to manage his territory, let alone manage the entire country.

In terms of domestic affairs, Salian could not help much, and could only rely on Kael'thas himself.

Fortunately, before the old king abdicated, he had already laid a good foundation for Kael'thas and vigorously attacked the most stubborn conservative aristocratic forces in the country.

Human inertia is the most terrible thing.

After Kael'thas came to power, there was still a lot of resistance to reform among the people, but at least the top officials led by the Silver Moon Council basically sided with the reform.

While fighting against the interference of the remnants of the old aristocratic forces, he and the Silvermoon Council are discussing the difficult formulation of new policies.

Kael'thas was so busy that he really felt the predicament his father had faced.

But this did not make him hold back, but instead inspired the stubbornness in Kael'thas in his bones.

In his busy schedule, the battle reports from the front line became one of Kael'thas's pastimes to relieve stress.

"Haha!"

Putting aside the good news from the front that had reached him only 2 minutes earlier, Kael'thas laughed heartily.

"This battle has finally been won! Well done! ”

Although he didn't say it, Kael'thas was actually quite pessimistic about the situation in Northrend.

The main force of the expedition to Northrend consisted of just over half of the Ranger and the newly established Morning Striker Legion, plus a small number of Magister troops and a group of Arcane Golems that had been reinforced in the past.

That's all the human support that the Northrend Pioneer Army can get.

Fortunately, there is still plenty of material resources, and the rich Quel'Salas is really not short of money.

In order to prevent the remnants of the old aristocracy from jumping over the wall in a hurry, the four legions did not dare to leave Silvermoon City without permission.

Thanks to the elite troops who defended Silvermoon City, the old nobles who were forced into a corner never dared to really lift the table, and could only watch as the Sunstrider Royal Family and the Silvermoon Council encroached on their advantageous industries little by little.

Both Kael'thas and the Silvermoon Council believe that it is more important to stabilize the situation at home than to spare more men to support the distant Arctic continent.

Under the attack of the trolls of Dhakara and the Iron Legion, Kael'thas thought that the newly built city of New Shandara might suffer heavy damage, but he did not expect a surprising report from the front.

The defenders on the Eastern Front struggled to hold out until the reinforcements of Kurtilas moved north, and Dhakalai, fanned by Zandalara, was repulsed head-on by the coalition forces, and Malak, the King of Frost, had already submitted a peace document to Shinsudara.

The outcome of the battlefield on the Eastern Front made Loken, who was already skeptical, take advantage of the slope to get off the donkey and withdraw the Iron Legion that went deep into the Crystal Song Forest.

At this point, the city of Shrisudara has truly established itself in Northrend.

The engineering puppets are still working day and night to build and strengthen the defense line to survive this crisis, and it will not be so easy to overthrow this new metropolis in the future.

"Is the peace agreement ......?"

After the amusement, Kael'thas regained his composure and carefully read the paperwork that Balder Lin had sent back intact.

Kael'thas had been in Dalaran for a long time, but was ostracized by his fellow Kenrito council members, who were unable to hold power in Dalaran.

With nothing to do, he has a lot of free time to read books and is proficient in many foreign languages such as the lingua franca of humans, trolls, dwarves, dwarves, and titans.

The wording of the Frost Troll's paperwork is slightly different from that of the Forest Troll, but overall it is much the same, and it is not difficult to understand.

As the so-called dead duck has a hard mouth.

The Dhakar trolls also knew that they were the losers in this war, and although they didn't lose badly, they still lost after all.

The loser compensates the winner, a rule of war that Azeroth has not changed for thousands of years.

Malak talked about him in the paperwork, repeatedly mentioning that the two sides did not really decide the winner, and that he only wanted to stop the battle in order to reduce the losses of each other.

Just listen to this kind of unnutritious car talk, everyone in the know knows what the actual situation is, and Malak is nothing more than trying to reduce his own compensation.

"Caponia."

"I'm here, Your Majesty, please command."

Kael'thas passed the paperwork to Caponia, who was busy in the ambush, "It's up to you to negotiate and squeeze as much compensation out of the frost trolls as possible." ”

"Yes!"

Receiving the new order, Caponia got up and left the council chamber, stepping on a pair of high heels and heading towards the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Li Leisa, who was in charge of military affairs, still asked with a calm expression, "Your Majesty, now that the war is over, do we still need to send more troops to the Crystal Song Forest?" ”

"Hmm......" Kael'thas lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "We sitting in the rear don't know the situation on the front line, so let's ask Lin Yu and Salian's opinions first." ”

Privately, many people refer to Salam as the little Count of Deep Shadow, in order to distinguish him from Villes Deep Shadow.

Kael'thas didn't like to be too small in front of the knighthood, so he simply called Salaan by his first name.

At first, the Silvermoon Council was very dissatisfied with this, and was secretly surprised by Sarjan's status in the new king's heart.

However, no matter how the members of the council took turns to plead, Kael'thas always insisted on his opinion, and over time, the council members did not bother to persuade again.

"Heh~"

Kael'thas couldn't help but laugh at the thought of the many efforts Sareyan had made for this war, and for the future of Northrend.

"Sarean has done a great job this time, Councillor Windrunner, do you think I should promote him to a knighthood or an official position?"

"This ......"

Li Leisa frowned and thought about it: "It still depends on Your Majesty's own intentions, I think it's okay." ”

Kael'thas rolled his eyes angrily: "If you say it, you don't say it...... What do you think, Speaker Drahir? ”

"Huh?"

His Excellency the Speaker, who had been playing soy sauce in the council, did not expect Kael'thas to throw the question on his head, and he was stunned for a moment before replying with a smile.

"I think it's better to reposition the authority of the little Earl of Deep Shadow, he has not stayed in the barracks of the Chenfeng Legion for a few days throughout the year, and the position of the legion commander is a little unworthy of the name."

One thing to say, Darkan's suggestion is actually quite pertinent.

Sarean himself felt that he should not continue in this military position, and planned to take time to suggest to Kael'thas when he returned that Liadline take his place.

"Well, that makes sense."

Kael'thas playfully continued to ask, "What position does the Speaker think he should be promoted?" ”

"Well...... this"

Darkan lowered his head and thought about it for a moment: "The little Earl of Deep Shadow is very good at speculating and guiding the general trend, but he is not very good at the details of the general affairs. ”

"Why don't you give him an official position like a senior staff officer or strategic adviser, and be directly responsible to the royal family in the future?"

"Strategic Advisors......

Kael'thas moved in his heart, and quietly looked at Darkan, who seemed to be loyal.

'I have to admit that this guy's ability is indeed outstanding, but it's a pity ......'

"Let's leave it like this for now...... Solanya, you consult with the Secretary of General Affairs to create a suitable official position for Sarean. ”

Solan Lian nodded lightly: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

At the end of this brief conversation, Darkan closed his eyes again, as if he had not noticed Kael'thas looking meaningfully.

This old fox is really difficult to deal with. ’
