Chapter 769 I Am Huiyue
What's rare is that both Duke and Thrall restrained their men and did not even attack each other's scouts or civilians. Many times, the wolf cavalry and the human cavalry would look at each other, and then in tacit agreement, one would go west and the other east. Disengage.
Every minute of every hour of every day, Sal felt like he was walking on thin ice.
These days, Thrall has not let [Doomhammer] move more than one meter away from his body.
"Relax, Thrall, you can't survive the Grimdor continent like this." Grom Hellscream advised Thrall.
"I understand the truth, but neither Duke, who has a terrible record, nor Arthas, the death knight who makes us even more uneasy, are enemies that the current tribe can contend with. I have to be careful and careful." Thrall insisted. With eyes full of bloodshot eyes, he spread his hands.
"Duke will not attack us." Grom looked extremely confident as he carried [Blood Roar].
"How are you sure?" Sal asked reluctantly.
"Just rely on my intuition as a top warrior." Grom poked his chest with his left thumb.
Thrall was furious for a moment.
"Don't underestimate my intuition. I have been in this world for fifteen years. I have seen almost all kinds of human beings. Upright, resolute, despicable, sinister... But Duke Marcus is definitely the most special. That one." Grom's blurred vision seemed to indicate that his soul had temporarily returned to the past time and space.
"Why?"
"Because he is more like a prophet than a prophet. He knows very well how the situation will evolve, and what needs to be done to reverse the unfavorable situation, he will know many steps ahead of you. Whether it is the enemy or his own people, they are just pawns on his chessboard. And. He will always choose to achieve the greatest victory at the least cost.”
"Grom." Thrall sighed.
"Um?"
"That's not like something you would say."
Grom disagreed: "Of course Orgrim said it."
"I knew it." When Thrall sighed again, he couldn't help but be in awe, whether it was for the former war chief or Duke: "What a terrible opponent. People stand on the clouds and overlook the earth, but we can only stand in the clouds. Feeling your way forward in the dark by intuition.”
When Sal unintentionally praised Duke, Duke himself was actually worried.
Now, he doesn't know how the situation will develop.
The original history books can be burned as firewood. Although Arthas killed his father according to the original version, what happened next was very different from the original version.
First, there was an early attack on Dalaran, and then there was Antonidas blending into the archlich and the second battle of Dalaran. The latest news is: Arthas sent Antonidas to command the newly-received Dalaran Undead Army to attack the South China Sea city-state. Arthas himself led the main force of the Scourge to attack Thoradin's Wall.
Oh, the news half an hour ago was that Thoradin's Wall defenses had fallen.
Because Alsace used [Frostmourne] to directly create a huge ice-covered slope, allowing hundreds of thousands of undead to rush directly along the slope onto the originally extremely steep city wall, forcing the Stromgardians to rush directly without a trace. A decisive battle under favorable geographical conditions.
Garlin Trollbane was so frightened that he urgently called his soldiers back to Stromgarde to defend the castle, and at the same time sent a note to the Alliance, hoping to rejoin the Alliance.
Mograine and other Lordaeron generals sneered at such a loser. Mograine made no secret of his disdain for Garin: "Okay! Leave the alliance when there is no benefit, and your hometown will be beaten again." Did you remember the alliance’s protection when you were there?”
Duke also despised and hated Garin. Knowing that Garin was another father-killer, Duke had no idea of recruiting Stromgard back to the alliance.
Before there is any evidence of Garin's father-killing, as long as Garin is still king, letting the people of Stromgarde return to the Alliance is like putting a poisonous snake in one's crotch.
Duke would not do such a desperate thing.
Duke can only wait until Stromgarde falls or Garin is dead before he comes out to clean up the mess.
The defense line of Nanhai city-state is very strong.
Dwarves are humanity's most loyal allies. After hearing the news of Duke's return in the magical communication, Kurdran Wildhammer decisively believed in Duke's judgment. He courageously rushed to destroy the entire Eagle before the Scourge attacked the Hillsbrad Foothills area. Chaoshan Kingdom was evacuated.
Most civilians have been evacuated to the wetland area across the sea through the port of Nanhai Town. The remaining gryphon troops joined the main force of Magni and Bronzebeard's Ironforge who came across the sea to assist, and jointly guarded the long defense line of the South China Sea city-state.
Because Antonidas was unexpectedly ineffective and completely lacked the demeanor of the Sun-level Archlich, under the cover of various black technologies and heavy firepower, this line of defense seemed impregnable.
Dark Portal August 3, 2015.
The army led by Duke finally met up with the Kul Tiras navy on the coast of Beiliu.
To the west is the endless sea that was once thought to be endless.
However, at this moment, the entire coastline is like a dense forest of sails, stretching endlessly for days and days.
Seeing such an exaggerated fleet, even the always proud people of Lordaeron had to admit that in more than ten years, the two emerging maritime overlords, Kul Tiras and the Kingdom of Stormwind, had already surpassed people's expectations. Imagine.
That's a huge fleet of more than a thousand ships!
Every year, Lordaeron's excess food is transported to Loch Modan and other areas in the southern continent through this maritime trade route, and then loaded with ores and iron tools to Stormport further south to support the defenses of the Cursed Land there, and finally from Stormwind The port transports luxury goods from areas such as Westfall to the coasts of the South Current and North Current, flowing into the Lordaeron and Dalaran regions.
A perfect triangular trade that never runs empty.
This long-term prosperous maritime trade route has supported nearly one million children who depend on the sea for their livelihood. It also feeds such a huge fleet!
Today, the transportation volume of both merchant ships and warships has experienced explosive growth compared with the distressed maritime transport capacity fifteen years ago.
More than a thousand large ships that can carry more than 200 people are just the first batch. More battleships and cargo ships are on the way.
On the largest ship, the Snow Queen, Jaina looked at the shore. Next to her stood Magna Aegwynn.
Magna teased Gianna: "Hey, today is a rare reunion with your fiancé. Cheer up and show your best side."
Jaina chuckled softly: "Including the side where I am already the Archmage of Huiyue?"
"Of course! At least let him know that you are no longer the little magic apprentice you were back then, but a strong woman who can stand alone. We are all Huiyue, so we can't let him overwhelm you."
"Okay!" A wave of elements that was extremely cool and gave people a hint of warmth was released on Jaina.
But the next moment, Gianna and Magna's expressions changed drastically at the same time.
