Chapter Thirty-Five: When Friendly Forces Are in Trouble, They Are Motionless Like Mountains

At this time, in the headquarters of the rebels on the outskirts of the city, the newly promoted church master, the most wanted criminal of the church and the kingdom, and the guardian of the legion, Oster Brown, had been unable to sleep for several nights in a row.

His heart was full of regret, and he knew that he would not agree to join this fake beggar gang. Now that Sashu has no electricity, how weak and weak he is, he is a straw bag that will be exposed at the touch of a button, and he can be said to be dead and lifeless in the rebels;

But if you think about it carefully, the outside world is in chaos, and the joint location of Solarius is thousands of miles away, and there are a bunch of deadly flags on his head, and it is equally auspicious to rush out.

Skar cares about him very much, and always sends people to ask for warmth, and Marissa is like growing behind her ass, she can't shake it off, and she can't find a chance to leave secretly.

Oster was distraught and didn't know what to do for a moment. Just stay like this for now, and take one step at a time.

On the side of the rebels, as the team grew, a meeting of the hall masters was held to discuss the next step.

At the meeting, Skar frequently asked Auster what his opinion was, and the latter had been thinking about how to find opportunities and excuses to leave, and replied with a "uh-huh, ahhh

As a result, Skar misunderstood what he meant, "Brother Brown, I know you're uncomfortable because you weren't notified in the last few actions, right?" In fact, not only you, but all the hall masters and disciples who were not directly involved in the battle were not informed, this was for the secrecy of the action, not because they did not trust you.

I know that you are capable and jealous and hateful, and you have never been frightened in the face of the Apologists or the Officers and Soldiers' Guards, and you may have a little less experience in leading troops to fight. I have a suggestion, after you go down, you can find Keith, and first study the information of the Xiazhou County Chronicles and the nearby officials and soldiers, so as to lay a good foundation for the future command of the people. ”

Oster thought to himself that it would never hurt to know more information, even if he ran away in the future, he would not get lost and fall into the barracks and fall into the net. So he went to the logistics department of the rebel army, asked for the key to the filing cabinet from the hall master Keith, and began to study all kinds of materials.

Oster already knew that although Montenegro was small, it was located at the intersection of the east-west arterial roads, and was an important transportation hub and cargo distribution center in the northeastern part of the wilderness. Topographically, it is the first pass between the mountains and the Great Plains, and as the gateway to the Sentinel Ridge Prefecture, it has been a battleground for soldiers throughout the ages. During both the Troll Wars and the Orc Uprising, there were major battles in the area.

There was a regular army of the kingdom stationed in the barracks fortress near the crossroads in the southeast of the town, and they were the ones who had driven the tanks to the north.

On the night of the rebels' attack on the granary, the corps almost sat idly by and watched the state and county guards disappear, and remained indifferent, until dawn symbolically left the camp for a turn, and withdrew without firing a single shot. Later, when the rebel army was in full swing, they never went out again, let alone assisted the state and county governments to suppress bandits.

According to information from the Rebel informants, the commander of the legion turned a deaf ear to the local government's snowflake request for help without receiving a direct order from Stormwind. On the contrary, he ordered his subordinates not to provoke the rebels, and took advantage of the fact that the other party did not have the ability and intention to attack the fortified fortress for the time being, and hurriedly pulled the recruited Zhuangding to the western port and transported it.

Skar has always regarded attacking the state and county offices and retaking food and supplies to help the victims as the first priority of the rebels. He then ordered that if the Kingdom Corps did not make any further moves, it would not be considered a target.

This move reached a tacit agreement with the Corps. As a result, in the western wilderness, there was a spectacle of the state guards fleeing like rabbits on one side, and the tanks of the regular army of the kingdom and the righteous bandits on the other side of the horse, walking side by side and not inviolating each other. Even some corps officers secretly did business with the rebels and exchanged ideas.

According to the information found by Oster, the military system of the Storm Kingdom is divided into two categories, one is the regular corps directly under the kingdom and implements vertical management, and the other is the county guard of the state capital, town, township, and county, which is equivalent to the local police and security army. Coupled with the cathars and paladins to which the church belongs, the kingdom is actually divided among the three armies, and the well water does not interfere with the river water.

The regular corps can be stationed in local areas in peacetime, but it has its own set of independent personnel and financial systems, and all soldiers and armament expenses are collected and deployed on their own, and they are not contaminated with the local bureaucratic system.

The forces that the kingdom could directly command were limited to the regular corps, as well as the expeditionary forces to the north and the colonies on the continents. As for the local guards and the ecclesiastical cathars, the kingdom had no control over the establishment and payment of salaries, nor over the rewards and punishments and appointments of officers and soldiers, and their obligations to the royal family were limited to nominal obedience. Therefore, there is a saying that the royal power is only in Shining Gold Town, and the government decree is not out of Stormwind City.

It is also because of this that Grian Stallman led the Western Wilderness People's Army to submit to the kingdom and participated in the Northern Expedition, which was so much praised and reused. To this day, local residents still say that the generalissimo exchanged the blood of the children of the West for the ladder of his promotion.

Auster still did not understand, although in the history he knew, there was no shortage of examples of intrigue between the descendants and the side troops, who did not get along with each other and sat back and watched the annihilation of friendly forces;

But it stands to reason that both the regular legions and the local guards, all of whom have sworn allegiance under the lion flag, and the army of the Stormwind Kingdom is still stationed in the same place; No matter how basic human relations are concerned, there is no harm in helping each other. Even out of the sadness of the rabbit and the fox, it should not be so ruthless.

When I asked Case, he replied that about ten years ago, there was a garrison commander in the eastern state of Dawn, which is now the Twilight State, who thought the same thing, and advocated the dispatch of troops to suppress the popular uprising, but was later borrowed by the authorities to reassure the people. Since then, the regular corps has stopped doing such stupid things.

Oster didn't care, but when Keith mentioned the name of the garrison commander, he was intrigued: Moradium.

It's a name he knows, the name of the protagonist of one of the game's quests. This quest line is very famous, and it can be ranked in the top 20 in Warcraft classic quests. The plot of the original version is as follows:

Morgan Raddymore was a paladin who returned from a war for many years and found that his family had died of the undead plague. In his grief and anger, his temperament changed dramatically, and he killed two night watchmen by mistake with his sword, and then committed suicide. Unbeknownst to him, he was also infected with the plague and later turned into an elite undead Moradim, wandering around. Defeat him and complete the quest line to get a powerful weapon in the early stage, the two-handed giant sword Aceus.

This is clearly a modified version of a fairy tale, and Oster is curious about what this event looks like in real history, or how much it has been whitewashed and covered up.

He found a general history of the kingdom and flipped through it, and this passage was brushed aside, and he didn't want to write an extra line. The same is true for a few more books, and the official historical records of the kingdom are very secretive about this event. Keith also didn't know much about history and didn't know what the details were.

Oster had no choice but to go to Skar and ask, who smiled and gave him another volume of "Eternal by the Stars", "Twilight Forest"; It seems that this book is really the best choice for finding barnyard official history and anecdotes. And Skar cherishes it very much, and borrows it in rolls by volume.

Like the previous volume of "Masonry Brothers", the beginning of the story is another interlude description;

[To the north of Crow Ridge, in the boundless cemetery, there was never daylight, and it was a dim night from morning to night;

To the northwest of the cemetery, near the banks of the River Dawn, there was a small protruding hillside, which was ten times darker than the surrounding area.

On this day, a tired man, dressed in tattered high-ranking Stormwind City officer armor and carrying a two-handed giant sword more than five feet long, stepped on this hillside alone......]
