Blood Elf Prince of Warcraft

Chapter 230: Betrayal and separation

At the cost of tens of thousands of soldiers, the Alliance finally successfully retreated to the wetlands.

In the wetlands, they quickly regrouped and completely blocked the tribal soldiers at the southern border.

This is not something that should be surprising, because after leaving the vast inland, there are not many roads to reach the wetlands. By sending a large number of soldiers, a perfect defense can be formed.

On top of that, most of the tribe's forces were blocked by the mountains.

"Destroy the tunnel, the tribe didn't expect us to do this."

After the day's inspection, Kael'thas and Kalia took advantage of the setting sun and took some subordinates to walk towards Menethil Port.

Just like he said, when the Alliance retreated, they completely destroyed the tunnels from the wetlands to Dun Morogh.Without these tunnels, the Horde would have had to take a detour, avoid the mountains of Dun Morogh, and enter the wetlands from the other side of Loch Modan.

This detour was enough for the tribe's large-scale soldiers to spend more than half a month.

This was Lothar's decision, which successfully gave the alliance time to rest and study.

"However, without the tunnel, it will be more complicated for us to counterattack in the future."

Kalia felt that this decision was too arbitrary. Even if the dwarves wanted to re-build that long tunnel, it would take at least several years. In the war years, it was undoubtedly impossible to do so.

The Alliance destroyed the tunnel and got a period of rest, but at the same time, it also expressed its complete abandonment of Dun Morogh.

Kalia knew this decision.It must have hurt the hearts of many dwarves.

But now, the attitudes of some dwarves have changed significantly. When talking to humans, they are no longer as polite and gentle as before.

"Can those dwarves understand our decision?"

Kalia sighed.

Her two ponytails had gradually grown and fell behind her shoulders, swaying gently with the pace of the horse.

Kael'thas looked at her: "I think it'll be okay."

He smiled: "Dwarves are people who can't control their thoughts. The complaints in their hearts won't be too big, otherwise they would have been annoyed with the Alliance."

"Moreover, during this period of fighting, they didn't give up at all."

Although the dwarves and the Alliance are currently in a stalemate, Kael'thas can still see that these dwarves understand the truth and understand the Alliance.The change in attitude on the face is inevitable - but no one requires this simple race to keep their thoughts deep in their hearts.

"Hopefully."

Kalia nodded reluctantly.

"Kalia."

Kael'thas looked at the human princess who still had some uneasiness on her face, and asked with a smile: "If you were the commander-in-chief of the alliance, what choice would you make?"

As long as she puts herself in the shoes of this human princess, she will probably understand that this decision is the right one.

Kalia was stunned, thought carefully for a while, and sure enough, she sighed: "I will also destroy the tunnel."

Because this is not just a problem for Union soldiers, it even includes the people on the wetland.

Destroying the tunnel not only gave the Alliance soldiers a rest, but also gave the people in the wetlands a chance to migrate.

There are not many people in the wetlands.But there are also, especially in Menethil Harbor, a large number of humans living there.After the Alliance retreated here, these humans were quickly relocated to other places in the past two weeks.

The most important destination.It is the Kingdom of Kul Tiras, the homeland of Jaina, the little girl who has been following Kaliya.

Kalia once didn't understand why humans were not moved to the north instead of to Kul Tiras, but after thinking about it during this period, she also understood the reason.

Kul Tiras is an island nation.The tribe has no interest in this island country. The orc navy is not strong, and it is not worth the gain to spend military power to occupy an island country that is some distance away from the mainland.

The tribe's eyes have been looking greedily at the northern continent.The vast and resource-rich continent is their goal.

Calculated this way, Kul Tiras is the safest place in the world.

Kael'thas and others quickly returned to Menethil Port - a place that had been completely transformed into a military base.

After they reported the general situation to Lothar, they asked about other things.

"What's the news about the Kingdom of Gilneas?"

Kael'thas was quite nervous about this issue.

In the history that he remembered, although the Kingdom of Gilneas only sent a few soldiers to participate in the Orc War, at least the country did not break away from the Alliance before the victory of the war.

However, perhaps due to the more difficult situation of the war, as soon as the Alliance retreated to the wetlands, the Kingdom of Gilneas announced that they were withdrawing from the Alliance.

This is not betrayal and surrender to the enemy. The king of this kingdom is King Genn Greymane, an aloof king. He used to develop Gilneas into a great country while rejecting all foreign aid. He has always pursued isolation. Policy, it took a lot of effort to agree to join the alliance.

So it's no surprise that he left the league.

King Genn Greymane is confident that his country can stop anyone's invasion, so once the alliance demands too much from him, he will want to withdraw.

"Unfortunately, the final persuasion failed."

Lothar looked tired, and some white hair appeared on his head, which was proof of his work these days: "In order to prevent our interference, Genn Greymane has asked his people to start building a high wall."

"If that high wall is repaired, it will completely isolate Gilneas from other kingdoms."

Gilneas is all on the sea, and it is a country that extends from the mainland, so just by abandoning some of the outside land and building a barrier with the mainland necklace, it can really completely block contact with other kingdoms.

"Isn't he afraid that we will attack Gilneas?"

Kalia couldn't bear it and asked.

"Of course I'm not afraid..."

Kael'thas raised his eyebrows.Answer the princess immediately: "There is a special kind of reef 'Bite Reef' growing around the coastline of Gilneas. It limits the development of maritime trade in the Kingdom of Gilneas, but also protects the coastline of Gilneas."

"It can be said that it is difficult for the tribe to attack them."

"Well, that's right."

Lothar nodded in agreement with Kael'thas and added: "The most important thing is that the Alliance must resist the Horde. It is difficult to come up with troops to fight him now."

"The only soldier who can be spared still has a new mission to do, and we can only let Jean Greymane act."

He said new mission.Of course Kalia and Kael'thas knew what they meant.

During these days, the Alliance has been collecting information on Alterac, and it is estimated that the results have been obtained.

"Has all the evidence been collected?"

Kalia's voice became a little cold.

"Ah."

Lothar clapped her hands.Then he called in the frowning Turalyon, picked up a large amount of information from his hand, and placed it on the table.

"It's been confirmed."

Lothar pointed at the information with an indifferent expression: "Although no formal documents were obtained, these information revealed the news that Alterac secretly signed a contract with the tribe. Their cowardice betrayed humanity and the Alliance!"

There are seven human kingdoms, excluding the Storm Kingdom that was destroyed in the First Orc War, there are a total of 6 kingdoms participating in the war.But it took five years of planning to form the alliance, and it had only been half a year since the war started.Two have already broken away.

This is a shame for mankind, a history destined to be ridiculed by other races.

[Alterac's military power is relatively weak, so they can be easily tempted and then rebel. 】

Kael'thas thought, but he also sneered.

If rebellion can survive.That would not be a tribe controlled by demons.

But for a coward, it's useless what you say. He won't do anything. He will only escape and give up, and then be destroyed - just like a certain dynasty.

"So, they really let those orcs who invaded Quel'Thalas go?"

Kael'thas asked next.Although the answer seemed unnecessary, he still wanted to answer accurately and did not want to be careless.

If not, he would be ready to face the new forces.

"Yes."

Fortunately, Lothar's answer did not give him a 'surprise': "Alterac covered the orcs, and then found a way to obtain information on the border, confuse the soldiers, and help the orcs invade Quel'Thalas."

Lothar looked a little apologetic: "I apologize to the elves. This was our negligence, Your Highness Kael'thas."

"It's not your fault."

Kael'thas did not accept the apology. The elves were not harmed, so he didn't mind much.

"Rather than apologizing, it would be better for you to deal with Alterac quickly."

Kael'thas continued: "This is what you call a new mission. Compared with the powerful Gilneas, the weak and rebellious Alterac is a better target."

If the Alliance can quickly pacify Alterac, it will also be able to stabilize the rear.

"I understand, I have already ordered the troops to be summoned."

Lothar nodded, then turned to look at Kalia: "Princess Kalia, you have to go together this time."

Kalia was stunned.

However, Alterac is on the border of Lordaeron. To destroy Alterac, it is obvious that Lordaeron will be the one who contributes the most. As a princess, Kalia can become the link between the Alliance and Lordaeron. Go there. It is also an inevitable result.

"In addition to the soldiers, there will also be many mages going to Dalaran. I will also send many paladins to go with you. Lord Uther and your teacher will also go."

Lothar then explained in detail: "This formation is very powerful and will handle Alterac's affairs as quickly as possible, so you don't have to worry too much."

Human soldiers, Silver Hands, and mages are indeed a very powerful camp, and Kalia has no reason to refuse.

"I'll be there."

She glanced at Kael'thas, and then said to Lothar with firm eyes.

Separation is imminent.
