Chapter 602: It's a human or a ghost
Taking advantage of the peace between the rise of the Lich King and the resumption of the Burning Legion, Kael'thas began to cautiously reform the ancient system of Quel'Thalas.
The reshuffled cabinet has a more rational distribution of powers, and the ministers in charge of internal affairs are busy with internal affairs, but the cabinet members have not relaxed their monitoring of the external environment.
Due to the recent privateer attack, Quel'Thalas's intelligence services have been on high alert for Lordaeron.
With the end of the naval battle between Kurtilas and Zandalara, the Eastern Kingdoms returned to calm and the nations focused on their internal affairs.
…… Except for the kingdom of Stormgard, which is getting more and more unassuming.
On the day of the official cabinet reshuffle at the behest of Kael'thas, Verres stripped some of the members of Backlight Blade and added them to the Intelligence Agency, which was part of the Department of Defense.
The Backlight Blade still belongs directly to the royal family, and only acts under the orders of Kael'thas and Sarren, the highest royal advisors.
Spies scattered throughout the country will be assigned to the newly established Defense Intelligence Agency, and the Backlight Blade will only be responsible for those tasks directly under the royal family that are more difficult.
The newly established Defense Intelligence Agency has come up with an important piece of information about the Kingdom of Stormgard.
Due to Garin Tolbane's unscrupulous squandering of national assets and only caring about his own pleasure, the kingdom of Stormgard, which was still relatively strong, was beaten by the deadwood trolls of the Arathi Heights.
If it weren't for the elite officers trained during Solas's reign, I am afraid that even the royal city of Riptide would have been invaded by deadwood trolls.
However, in this case, Garin made another incomprehensible maneuver.
The senior officers left behind by Solas were all doers, and they were very unhappy with Garin's propensity to squander state property.
Most of the soldiers were outspoken, and these officers discussed Garin's perversion with their subordinates many times in private, and many of their words were disrespectful to Garin and nostalgia for the former king Solas.
Some villains who wanted to flatter themselves reported these private gossip to Garin, which naturally caused Garin to be furious.
Garin, who killed his father and ascended the throne, was not in the right position, and he always had concerns about these arrogant generals.
Seizing this opportunity, Garin arrested all the high-ranking officers who were gossiping behind their backs, and did not hesitate to behead all the ministers before they could intercede.
Garin was so angry that the general's soldiers surrounded Fort Riptide.
If that were all there was to it, the soldiers did not think of rebellion, but only wanted the mediocre king to give an explanation, and let him promise that he would not commit such a foolish act of cutting off his arm again in the future.
However, something miraculous happened, and Garin, who had a ghost in his heart, was so frightened that he fled out of the palace that night with a very small number of henchmen.
The next day, the ministers of the previous court were dumbfounded, as the monarch of a country, Garin actually opened up without greeting him, how could the country's face exist?
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and I don't know if it was a coincidence or an inevitability, but the Deadwood Trolls took advantage of the leaderless Stormgard group to launch a major attack, and the Stonefist Ogre and the Syndicate also took the opportunity to join the chaos.
Most of the high-ranking officers were cut down by Garin, and Stormgard's chain of command was extremely disorganized, and Fort Riptide was breached by the tripartite forces while still retaining its combat effectiveness.
The ministers were so angry that they almost suffered a cerebral hemorrhage on the spot, but the matter had come to this point, and they could only find a way to save the remaining living forces of the Stormgard Kingdom.
The few remaining senior officers could only take command of the army, and retreat with the remaining civilians out of the dilapidated Riptide Fort.
As for the missing King Garin? him!
Kael'thas and the Cabinet members were all laughing and crying when they received this information.
Someone, however, saw an opportunity in the collapse of Stormgard and ordered the troops stationed in Andohar to move quickly south to assist the "allies" in retaking Fort Riptide from the enemy and finding the "captured" King Garin.
Needless to say, this person is King Terenus Minahir of Lordaeron.
It's him, it's him, it's him! He's back to his dream of human unification.
Terenus, who had improved his condition, seemed to usher in a second spring, and he was full of energy and personally intervened in the war.
In addition to sending Andorhar's army south, he also sent another larger main force from the royal city of Lordaeron, led by Saidan D'Assohhan, the deputy head of the Knights of the Silver Hand.
The main force followed the trail on the eastern side of Lake Lordamere and headed south through the Hillsbride Hills.
Levitating over Hillsbride, Dalaran saw the movement of this army clearly, and Antonidas immediately shared this information with Quel'Salas and Kurtiras.
Terenus intended to send the Prince of Arthas with his army to take advantage of the opportunity to gild.
At this time, the prince of Arthas was still in Dalaran to carry out the beautiful man's plan explained by Terenus, and persevered to show his charm in front of Gianna.
However, it didn't help, and in front of the well-informed Gianna, Arthas's pretentious gesture of scratching her head only made her feel funny.
It was at this time that Onexia's secret information reached Sarean.
Departing from the royal city of Lordaeron, the send-off mission to Dalaran was Tyrenus' most trusted advisor, Nigel Portman.
After Dalaran fell out with Lordaeron, Antonidas closed the permanent portal that had existed between the two countries.
To get to Dalaran, Portman had to start from the Lordamere Trail and travel overland to the dedicated teleportation node beneath the Floating City.
Under Onexia's silent watch, the three-man advisory group did not move as planned.
After leaving the royal city of Lordaeron, the trio were restored to their original forms in an inaccessible forest.
Dreadlord.
The spy master met the spy ancestor, and with the calculating and unintentional Onexia, he easily took down the three legendary bats.
What to do with these three Dreadlords made it difficult for Onexia.
If he had followed his heart, Oni the Fun Man planned to hang them on the walls of Lordaeron and put biographies on each of them, so that the increasingly dull Terenus could see who he trusted.
But Onexia's action represents more than just herself, and if the annoyed Terenus finds out that Quel'Thallas is behind it, he may take the opportunity to anger Quel'Thalas.
With this in mind, Onexia tossed the ball to Sarren and asked him to decide what to do with the three captured Dreadlords.
"Hmmm......"
Salian was also a little embarrassed.
The older Tyrenus gets, the harder it is to serve, and the gray-haired Tyrenus only likes to listen to good words, and anyone who dares to disobey him will be scolded, even the Prince of Arthas.
Originally, Terenus thought that his dream would never come true, but he didn't expect Stormgard to give him a pillow when he was dozing.
To put it mildly, attacking Stormgard and "rescuing" King Garin is now Lordaeron's political correctness, and anyone who dares to stand in the way of his actions and words will be hated by Terenus.
No, Uther Lightbringer was suspended for a word of persuasion, and the task of leading the army was given to his lieutenant, the more obedient Saidan Dasohan.
If this matter is blatantly revealed, it will 100% make Terenus angry, isn't it a clear satire of his mediocrity?
None of the overstepping powers, Sarjan simply threw the ball to Kael'thas again, allowing Valilla to use the secret channel of the Backlight Blade to pass the information to Velles.
"Ah, this ......"
Kael'thas was tingling with his scalp by Garin and Terenus.
“…… What's wrong with the human kingdom? How is the king more wonderful than the other? ”
The Minister of the Interior, Solan Lian, who happened to come to visit the palace office, persuaded lightly: "Your Majesty, please be cautious. ”
"Isn't His Majesty Daelin of Kul Tiras normal?"
Kael'thas shook his head with a smile: "I'm just complaining casually with emotion, don't take it to heart." ”
After bowing his head and pondering for a while, Kael'thas instructed Solanlian: "I have some general ideas, Solanlian, help me call the Minister of Propaganda von Delors, and by the way, let him bring the editor-in-chief of the newspaper agency." ”
"Yes."
