"Eight or nine is not far from ten."

Faced with Khadgar's confirmation, Danas rubbed his forehead worriedly.

"Due to the tight blockade of the Burning Legion, we are unable to infiltrate intelligence agents into the depths of the Hellfire Peninsula due to the lack of major generals, and the information we can obtain is extremely limited."

"Judging from their recent military movements, it is likely that most of their forces have been transferred to the vicinity of the Dark Gate, and the garrison on the Talador border has been weakened...... You should know what that means. ”

"Dark Portal......

Khadgar rubbed his temples with a headache, "Why is this ghost so ghostly, I really don't know how Medivan made it in the first place." ”

"Whew~"

It was useless to complain at this moment, Khadgar adjusted his mood and let out a long breath: "You want me to help you convince Adar to dispatch the Storm Fleet to help us break through the blockade of the Burning Legion?" ”

Danas: "That's right, now we can only ask for Naru's help. ”

Khadgar stroked his snow-white beard with a grim face, "I can't guarantee success, but I'll try my best." ”

"You first try to recall Aurelia, who has not yet made progress, and gather all your forces to prepare for an all-out attack."

Danas nodded with a heavy face, "If the Dark Gate does open again, it may be good news for us. ”

Khadgar, though wise, was not as politically and militarily sensitive as Danas, the acting leader of the expeditionary force.

"What do you mean by that?"

Danas didn't elaborate, just smiled and brushed the whole topic aside.

"It's a long story, anyway, let's all act first, and hopefully Azeroth will be prepared in advance for the opening of the Dark Door."

"If we can take advantage of this opportunity to form a trend of internal and external cooperation, maybe ......"

"Sir! There is an urgent military intelligence report from the scouts ahead! ”

Before Danas could finish speaking, a dusty High Elf scout, surrounded by a dozen heavily armed soldiers, stumbled in front of Danas and Khadgar.

Seeing the prostration of the scout, who had been lurking near the border for information, after a long journey, Danas's expression became solemn.

As a good commander, he had a vague feeling that the fighter plane that the expeditionary force had been waiting for might have arrived.

"Don't worry, calm down first and then speak slowly."

Under the gentle words of Danas, the High Elf scout, whose tired face finally adjusted his breathing.

"Commander Thorbain, a alien who claims to be the leader of the Grey-Tongued Death-Oaths has approached our scout team with important information from the Hellfire Peninsula to convey to you personally."

"Grey-Tongue Death Oath?"

Danas looked at Khadgar beside him with a puzzled expression.

The "old" mage seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly his face moved, and he took the initiative to take over the topic and asked, "Is that alien similar to the Delleni in terms of physical structure?" ”

"This ......"

The scout was stunned for a moment before scratching his head and replying, "You say that...... Then I noticed that their appearance was very different, but the recurved hooves were the same. ”

"Sure enough......"

Facing Danas' inquiring eyes, Khadgar pondered for a moment before explaining, "If I'm not mistaken, this organization known as the Greytongue Death Oath is supposed to be made up of the Broken. ”

Without waiting for Danas to ask, Khadgar took the initiative to explain: "The Shatterers are a species mutated by the deep contamination of the Draeni by evil energy, they have lost the curling of the Holy Light, and have been tormented by the boiling evil energy in their bodies for many years. ”

"Danas, you've probably heard of them, the humanoid beasts that roam the wilderness and have long since lost their minds."

After listening to Khadgar's explanation, Danas suddenly appeared: "It turned out to be them, but you didn't say this before...... Has the Broken Ones long since lost their humanity? ”

Khadgar shook his head, "Even fellow Breakers can't generalize. ”

"I've heard from Marrad that among the Draeni who fled into Azeroth, there are also some Brokenmen who are determined and still keep their sanity."

"This organization of Grey-Tongued Deathoaths is supposed to be made up of a group of Broken Ones who have not yet fully degenerated."

"Anyway, let's meet the leader of the Grey-Tongued Oath-Dead."

Khadgar touched his chin thoughtfully: "I have a hunch that he should be able to bring us some good news. ”

……

As the Burning Legion stepped up its offensive on the Hellfire Peninsula, it was difficult for the expeditionary force to continue to maintain the defensive line without reinforcements.

Under the orders of Turayan, in order to preserve the living force, the expeditionary force reluctantly transferred the remaining main army to the Talado Forest next door to the Hellfire Peninsula.

It was impossible for the expeditionary force to launch a counteroffensive against Hellfire on its own, and Tulayan, who was in dire need of reinforcements, remembered the advice that Salian had made before leaving.

At Aurelia's own initiative, Tulayan sent a small group of elite men to follow her to the Nagrand Savannah, where they could make peace with the remaining Deleni who were recuperating in the town of Tara.

During the period when the Draeni and the Orcs were temporarily at peace, in order to get a closer look at the situation of the crashed ship Genidal, the Draeni secretly built a small town in the south of Nagrand, the town of Tara.

Due to the power of the Holy Light that the injured Naruk Ouray unconsciously escaped, he unexpectedly attracted the souls of the Death Orcs to converge towards him.

Over time, the wreckage of Genidal was treated as a sacred mountain by the orcs of Nagrand.

Throughout the year, shamans who believe in the ways of the ancestors make a devout pilgrimage to the sacred mountain they call the Valley of Washur to listen to the teachings of the spirits of the ancestors.

Over time, this tradition of ancestor worship gradually spread to all orc clans throughout Draenor.

Until the mad evil orcs completely gave up their faith in their ancestors and embraced evil power with all their hearts.

Due to the proximity of the town of Tara to the war-thirsty Warsong Clan's location, it was a natural fact that it was the first target of the Warsong Clan, who were overwhelmed by demonic blood, when the war between the two clans began.

As Grom Hellroar responded to Neozu's call and led the main force of the Warsong Clan to Azeroth for reinforcements.

The only warsong orcs left in Nagrand were the elderly, the sick, and the sick, including Gromna's son of the plague, Garrosh.

After Garrosh was transferred to Galadar for treatment, the remaining orcs of the Warsong Clan were getting worse from day to day.

After a long time of not waiting for the return of the patriarch, but with the arrival of the Alliance Expeditionary Force received the bad news of the destruction of the tribe, these old and sick people who did not drink the blood of the demons were persuaded by Garrosh's letter to simply join the Maghan clan led by Gaiaan.

Today, the original residence of the Warsong Clan has long been exhausted, and only a handful of old orcs who are difficult to move around continue to stay in the spirit of leaving their homeland.

Most of the living Warsong orcs have relocated to the north of Nagrand, near Galadar on the shores of Lake Elemental Throne.

The relocation of the Warsong Clan gave Malad the opportunity to rebuild the town of Tara.

Marrad still remembered the instructions of Salian before leaving, and he wanted to rescue the mortally injured and dying Naruk Oure from the wreckage of Ginidal.

However, without the many powerful Holy Light users led by Veron, it is impossible to heal Choure's injuries with the few people left behind in Draenor, and can only alleviate the speed of his degeneration into Dark Naru as much as possible.

While Marrad and the others were busy stabilizing Ceure's injuries, Aurelia led a diplomatic team to the newly rebuilt town of Tara.

After some hard work, Aurelia successfully persuaded the reasonable Marghan chief Gaiaan to reach a preliminary cooperation agreement with the Maghan clan.

However, at that time, the Maghan orcs had not yet completely freed themselves from the plague of rashes, and could provide limited help to the Alliance Expeditionary Force.

In order to attract more reinforcements, Aurelia then rushed to the Aranca Peak Forest non-stop.

With the important information left by Sarean, she quietly intervened in the dispute between the Raven and the Raven exiles, and it took more than 2 years to finally bring the nearly exhausted Raven exiles into the camp of the expeditionary force.

In fact, what Aurelia wanted to woo at first were the winged crows who lived on the top of Tongtian Peak.

But the arrogance of the Raven nobles left Aurelia in vain, and she had to change her mind and win over their enemies.

After the Naru led by Adar arrived at Draenor in the Storm Fleet, Tulayan, who was worried about how to stabilize the defense line in the Talador Forest, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the fleet had originally only come to rescue the Deleni refugees, it was not loaded with many troops, and was more like a fleet of immigrants, which was not enough to support Tulayan's counteroffensive plans.

In desperation, Tulayan could only hold back his impulse for the time being, and steadily rebuilt the ruins of Shattrath as a new base camp with the assistance of the Narus.

About half a year before Tulayan's disappearance, with the help of a Naru-Muru, who was good at healing his injuries, Marrad and the others finally succeeded in rescuing the seriously injured Keure, avoiding his tragic fate of degenerating into a dark Naru.

Originally, Marrad wanted to ask Naru to make persistent efforts to save Kara, the "Dark Star" floating in the sky over Shadowmoon Valley, but unfortunately, a large number of demons poured out of Gul'dan's hands blocked their progress.

In order to ensure that the rear of the Tarador Forest is not attacked by demons, Kudran Brutehammer, one of the five heroes of the Expeditionary Force, took the initiative to apply to go to the junction of the southeast of Tarador and the Valley of the Shadowmoon to build a strong Brute Hammer Fortress, and personally lead the army to garrison it all year round.

At this point, the situation in Draenor can be considered stable.

The Burning Legion was unable to penetrate the Forests of Talado, threatening Nagrand and Frostfire Ridge further behind.

The expeditionary force also did not have enough troops to launch a counteroffensive, and the two sides were temporarily deadlocked.

Kazak, Lord of Doom, was ordered to reactivate the Dark Gate and launch an attack at the same time as the Scourge to weaken Azeroth's garrison as much as possible in preparation for the arrival of Akmund.

In order to complete the layout of the fraudsters, Kazak did not hesitate to draw the garrison stationed on the border of the Talado Forest and concentrate all his forces on the Cursed Lands.

And this just gave the expeditionary force, which had already been preparing for a great counterattack, an excellent opportunity for a counteroffensive.

"You say, this is Sarren's plan for the Deep Shadow?"

After hearing the contact from Akama, Danas, who did not know enough about Sarren, had not yet expressed his opinion, and Khadgar was the first to exclaim in astonishment.

"So, Azeroth is already ready for the reopening of the Dark Gate, just waiting for us to backstab the Burning Legion from behind?"
