Chapter 441 The Latest News

Whose tears are flying?

Whose applause is ringing?

For the citizens of Lordaeron, who claim to be the best in the world, yesterday was definitely the most panic-stricken day.

I used to think that war was so far away.

The nobles sang and danced. There are still hundreds of large and small banquets and dances every month. Those great nobles held masquerade balls with thousands of people and provided banquets with over a hundred kinds of desserts.

The ease of mind of the nobles was passed on to others.

The people also enjoy the tranquility and prosperity very naturally.

Yesterday, everything changed.

The brutal orcs broke through the defensive lines, crossed the snow-capped mountains, and directly killed the city. Even though most of the orcs were killed on the city wall, a small number of orcs broke through the defense line and arrived in the city to start killing.

The strongest troops in the city of Lordaeron were all replenished towards the city wall, and the task of eliminating these orcs had to be handed over to the city guards. These city guards who have not received strict military training are usually good enough to deal with hooligans and ruffians, but they are not enough for the only elite of the Blackstone clan.

The final count of the orcs who broke into the city was 68 people.

It was these 68 people who caused nearly 5,000 casualties. On average, each orc killed two dozen or more city guards and caused more than three dozen civilian casualties.

There are funerals in almost every household in the entire DC area.

The city of Lordaeron panicked. Even though more than 30,000 alliance troops were stationed behind them, a large number of citizens and nobles woke up from nightmares throughout the night. One guy even had a nightmare and yelled "the orcs are coming", which actually produced a chain of panic escapes, causing more than a hundred people to be killed or injured in trampling each other.

It wasn't until Duke ordered Alsace to activate the magic lighting throughout the process, illuminating the city of Lordaeron as if it were daytime, and repeatedly asked the Lordaeron soldiers to sing the Lordaeron military song when patrolling, which made the cowardly Lordaeron Citizens feel a little more at ease.

In this way, the people of Lordaeron ushered in the 8,000 cavalry team of Lord Mograine the next day. Then two days later, they waited until the exhausted King Terenas led the main force back to help.

Even though they were forced to return to aid, Terenas and his infantry were greeted like a triumphant hero. Almost every citizen gathered around the west gate, welcoming the return of their army with the warmest and most sincere cheers.

This is not a triumph to brag about. What the people want is a sense of security. Terenas had no heart to deal with the enthusiastic people, he hurried back to the palace. There, the deputy commander of the alliance, Duke, General Ryan, General Solas, General Kurdran, and Major General Haas have been waiting for a long time.

Terenas did not put on the airs of the leader, and directly bowed to Duke, Ryan and other kings in accordance with the rules of the alliance.

"Thank you very much for your Excellency the Deputy Commander, the three generals and all the allies who rescued the city of Lordaeron. Without your assistance, Lordaeron will be nailed to the pillar of shame forever." Terenas is serious Well, without Duke's deployment of troops, he would be a bereaved dog now.

"The lord is polite. We established the alliance at the beginning, isn't it to help each other today? If we can't work together, whether it's humans, dwarves, or elves, we will all be killed by the tribe, even those who become slaves Not necessarily qualified." Duke was also very polite.

The kings also greeted each other for a while.

After the necessary etiquette, Terenas was unequivocal: "Okay, let me get straight to the point. Although I also think that nearly 300,000 troops can guarantee that the city of Lordaeron will not be captured by the Horde, the fact is that Lordaeron The city does not have the food needed to maintain 300,000 soldiers and nearly 400,000 civilians to defend the city for a long time. Before that, Lordaeron has been supporting countries with food, ordnance, and soldiers, and now it is Lordaeron's turn to need the support of countries."

Spread your hand, asking for money, food, soldiers, everything.

The bigwigs from all over the world suddenly became bitter.

Wildhammer dwarves seldom farm. They live a life of semi-cultivation and semi-grazing. They usually let griffins fly all over the mountains to catch and eat for themselves.

Solas's Arathi Highlands had just been plowed by the Horde's locusts. If he hadn't seen that cavalry was not needed to defend Stromgarde, he wouldn't even send troops.

Alterac was copied from his hometown less than a week ago, and there was not even a single piece of grass.

Going around, Dalaran, which is relatively stable, is the richest among the countries, followed by the refugee country more than a year ago-the Kingdom of Stormwind. The bumper summer harvest in the Hillsbrad hills can't be hidden from anyone, but unfortunately, the Stormwind Kingdom itself has hundreds of thousands of mouths.

As soon as Terenas opened his mouth, he was immediately stunned.

Fortunately, everyone can be silent, but Duke cannot be silent. The Alliance and the Horde have been fighting for so long, and everyone has long been accustomed to Duke being the real leader without knowing it.

Scheduling and coordination belong to Duke.

The logistics and magic areas are under Duke's control.

Even the command of most of the country's military power, and even the recruitment of new members are under Duke's control.

If Lothar is not busy dealing with the western battlefield, the front army there also has the strength of the three countries of Lordaeron, Gilneas, and Dalaran. Everyone has almost forgotten that Lothar is the commander-in-chief.

Facing the eyes of the kings, Duke looked calm and indifferent.

"Who said there was going to be a long and protracted battle to defend the city? Why can't we be optimistic, now is a good time for us to wipe out the main force of the tribe!"

As soon as these words came out, the big bosses were astonished.

Their thinking really couldn't keep up with Duke's rhythm. Isn't the tribe invincible now? Didn't you see that the tribe's interspersed assault was unstoppable?

The flames of war have burned all over the northern continent. In the eyes of the kings, there is no safe place in the entire continent. From the Arathi Highlands in the south to the Eversong Forest in the north, from the Nanliu Coast in the west to the Hinterlands in the east, there are tribes everywhere.

Even though the Alliance gained the upper hand on the Western Front, it still has nothing to do with the remaining 100,000 tribes.

The Alterac royal city was lost just now, and now Duke actually said that he could wipe out the main force of the Horde?

If it was Duke a year ago, he would probably have to face endless doubts and even ridicule at this moment. Duke now...

Solas laughed, Ryan laughed, and Kurdran also laughed. Almost all the kings who fought on the Eastern Front gave Duke good looks. Everyone waited with ease for Duke to give the long-awaited answer.

To be honest, Terenas was very nervous just now. Lordaeron had paid a lot in order to obtain this lord status, but he was not sure whether the efforts of himself and the country would be rewarded in a critical juncture. Now it seems that under the coordination of Duke, the countries of the alliance are not only reliable, but also can give him enough surprises.

Duke smiled and opened a real-time video of a magic message: "The latest news, Gul'dan sold Orgrim."
