Chapter 675: Overkill

When Sarren flew to the temporary embassy of Quel'Salas in Steinbled, he could clearly feel the change in the atmosphere of the town, which had temporarily served as the capital of Alterac.

During the reigns of Lordaeron and the Syndicate, the atmosphere in Steinbrad was very oppressive, and passers-by on the street always looked cautious, not even daring to let go of their voices and speak loudly.

Sailjan and the others came to Steinbred's Backlight Blade to do some investigations.

After being forcibly annexed by Lordaeron, most of the people of the former kingdom of Alterac were not doing well.

In their own words, the Alteracians lived like second-class citizens who were inherently inferior under Lordaeron's rule.

Under the continuous assassination of the Syndicate, the mayor of Stannbride changed every six months on average.

The natives of Stannbride couldn't expect these precarious mayors to treat them seriously, and it would be nice if the poor mayors could save their lives from the Syndicate's black hands.

When Silverton took over Steinbled, he overthrew the Syndicate's reign of terror behind the scenes, and the town gradually returned to normal.

Normalized life sounds like a matter of course for many people, but for Steinbly...... This is not even the case for the residents of the entire Alterac Snow Mountains.

Except for the soft-boned who are accustomed to kneeling and unable to stand up, no one wants to be a second-class citizen who is discriminated against.

Steinbraid was restored, and the kingdom of Alterac was reborn after six years of destruction.

After six years of oppression, the people of Alterac are finally able to stand up and cheer for their country without fear of persecution by Lordaeron and the Syndicate.

It is undoubtedly a good thing to be freed from slavery and reborn, but in Sarren's view, once liberated, the people of Alterac, who have accumulated too many negative emotions for the past six years, seem to have a tendency to overkill.

On the way back to the temporary embassy in Quel'Thalas, Sarean heard the Alterac people standing on the side of the road talking more than once shouting radical slogans for a counterattack on Lordaeron.

"It's not that I can't understand their feelings."

Valeera shrugged her shoulders and said, "But at this juncture, the boiling public opinion is a bit of a fuel to the fire. ”

"Perhaps because of his experience of being uprooted from his homeland over the years, Yin Yeton is accustomed to listening to the voices of the people, and he takes the appeal of the people a little too seriously."

Although this may cause some people to resent it, Sarian still thinks that the barrage's words make sense.

Because of the limited access to intelligence, even in the modern world where the barrage is located, their people can still be said to be ignorant, and many people will easily be led by certain mouthpieces who have the power of public opinion.

As a ruler, it is necessary to listen to the voices of the people, but you cannot govern the country exactly according to the advice of the people.

Because the vast majority of keyboard politicians don't know what to do to benefit the country, and even if they do, they will treat it as if they don't know, they will only think about how to seek personal interests, and the rhythm will fly.

In barrage parlance, it's called the ass deciding the head.

A good ruler cannot listen to the voices of either side and arbitrarily take the loud opinion as the general opinion.

To put it in layman's terms, it is not advisable to distribute according to trouble.

Under the careful tutelage of King Jean, Atherton showed extraordinary abilities at a young age, but he was still very young after all, and lacked practical experience in governing the country, and one was not careful, and he would be taken into a ditch.

The restoration of Alterac was short, and the officials appointed by Atherton were all selected from among the former Alterac nobles, and they themselves had their own positions.

Lordaeron's strength is still engraved in the hearts of many nobles, and they are subconsciously afraid that Lordaeron will do everything in his power to take revenge on Alterac.

Driven by this fear, the fidgeting aristocracy naturally thought of getting rid of the threat.

At the instigation of these aristocrats, the people of Alterac, who were united for different reasons, took to the streets to speak out.

They attempted to use the power of the Anti-Lordaeron Alliance to completely erase Lordaeron from Azeroth's territory.

Upon reuniting after a long absence, Tina Gossa threw herself into Sareen's arms as soon as possible, crawled to his broad shoulders with quick hands and feet, and sat down on his throne without moving.

In the process of thinking, Sarrian subconsciously helped little Tina smooth her hair, and under Valeera's unkind gaze, Tina half-squinted her eyes as if she didn't see it, enjoying Sarren's intimate contact.

"Tsk~"

Valera knows very well in her heart that the relationship between Sarjan and Tina is very pure brother and sister, and there is an essential difference between Gianna who regards Sarjan as a "love brother".

But there is a reason why Valilla is jokingly called Little Vinegar Jar by the barrage, she is always very wary of the women who are active around Saljan, and Tina is no exception.

Sarjan didn't notice the eye contact between Valera and Tina Gossa, and he was considering how to convince Etherton to retreat as the anti-Lordaeron League marched in a hurry.

"Valeera, how is the situation on the battlefield on the Western Front?"

Valera withdrew her eyes from Tina and explained, "It's about the same as you predicted, the overall battle situation hasn't changed much, it's just a tug of war in the plains, and no one can overwhelm anyone. ”

"But after a period of stalemate, the enormous logistical pressures facing Lordaeron's army gradually came to the fore."

"If the supply line situation in the Lordamere Lake region is not improved, there will be a food crisis for Mogleni's army within one month at the latest."

"Hmmm......"

Salian frowned and weighed it for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject.

"How's Merry? Did he make any breakthroughs in his research on the Tol Bain Tomahawk? ”

Valera shook her head: "Who knows, he has been locked up in the laboratory, and Tina and I can't understand his research, so naturally we can't confirm his progress." ”

Suddenly, an idea moved in her mind, and Valera asked with some surprise, "Could it be that you plan to ask Merry to convince Dalaran to stop?" ”

Sallian smiled noncommittally: "This matter has not been overlooked, let's solve the current problem first." ”

The situation in Alterac today is complicated.

Due to Terenus's insistence on regaining the face of the Minethir royal family, Sarean could not let him taste the sweetness of the battlefield, lest he provoke a stronger counterattack from Lordaeron.

But on the other hand, the anti-Lordaeron alliance must not be allowed to completely defeat Mogleni's army, so as not to further fuel the counteroffensive of Alterac and other countries.

After some initial planning, Salian planned to convince Dalaran to alleviate the oppression of the Lordaeron grain route in a three-pronged manner.

The first pipe is Ronin, the second is Gianna, and the third is Merry.

However, there is no need to rush the matter of Dalaran, it can be resolved within a month.

It was imperative to find a way to convince Yonserton to suppress the ultra-radical voices in Alterac and not to get carried away by those who were clamoring for revenge on Lordaeron.

Early the next morning, Sarena changed into a more modest dress and went alone to the palace of the Alterac royal family, the former town hall of Steinbred.

After the arrest of the Duke of Facurest, a large number of nobles lobbied Yonserton one after another, suggesting that he completely remove the rebellious Facurrest family and convert Facurrest Castle into a temporary palace.

These nobles who tried to show their loyalty after the rebellion showed Yin Yeton what it means to be a wall down and everyone to push it, and what it means to be a chameleon without discipline.

Yin Stillon was not so good, and he knew that these people were worried that Duke Facurrest would take bloody revenge on them if he returned.

Instead of taking the strong advice of the nobles, Viceton imprisoned the Duke of Facurrest, who was still seriously wounded, without ever convicting him.

Everyone knew that Stannbride was only a temporary capital, and when he repelled Lordaeron's invasion, Etherton would inevitably send troops to take back the lost city of Alterac from the ogre, and there would be no need to spend manpower and material resources to build a palace here.

Stannbride was a small town, and the town hall was not very large, and as soon as Salian walked into the hall he heard a loud quarrel, like a bargaining market.

Led by Atherton's henchmen, Sarian squeezed through the crowd and made his way to Atherton's makeshift office.

"Bang~"

As the office door closed, the noise outside the door subsided significantly, and Salian vaguely felt the arcane fluctuations.

'Soundproof enchantment?' ’

When Sarren entered the office, Atherton was still struggling to write, and he could see very noticeable dark circles under his eye sockets, apparently because he hadn't rested well.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Yin Setton looked up apologetically and smiled at Sarren.

"Count Deep Shadow, please wait a moment and let me take care of this piece first."

Sarren smiled and nodded, but he muttered a little in his heart about Silverton's excessive diligence.

'This kind of work intensity...... This kid wouldn't die suddenly at his desk at such a young age, would he? ’
