MTL - Civilization of Azeroth: Start the Great Pyramid-Chapter 316 Rumors of Gilneas
The conflict in Gilneas has affected the nerves of all parties.
Countries that directly border Gilneas are worried about the spread of the conflict, and countries that do not border Gilneas are also worried about the impact on their own economies. For a time, the prices of textiles have risen sharply.
"What is the attitude of His Majesty Terenas regarding this matter?"
Li De asked Lothar.
"The letter from Terenas said that the war has lasted for many years, and peace is hard to come by. Lordaeron already has an army operating outside the country. If the army is organized again, it may arouse the war-weariness of the people."
There is no further text here, but Li De understands that Terenas means to wait and see for a while. As for "there is already an army" mentioned, it refers to the one led by Garithers in pursuit of Orgrim and Kilrogg.
"Then what do you think about this matter, should we send troops?"
For Li De's question, Lothar first nodded, then shook his head.
"I will send Ashkandi to lead a force to assist Greymane in defending the border and ensure that the orcs in Silverpine Forest will not harm the people of Gilneas. But for other military operations, I plan to wait and see. "
When Lothar said this, Li De knew what he knew. This was the ninth year of the opening of the Dark Portal, and everyone was tired.
And through the communication with the Frostwolf clan, at least Lothar's attitude towards the orcs is not the same as before.
A lot of people died in the Alliance, and there were no fewer deaths on the Horde side. To put it more practically, the world of the orcs is now in a half-crippled state, and many refugees need the supplies traded from the alliance to survive.
At this level, in fact, as long as the orcs living in the wild, as long as they don't kill themselves and appear in the human settlements, most people don't bother to chase and kill them, and their lives must go on. People like Garithers are still a minority after all.
After all, Azeroth is big enough to allow the coexistence of various races.
"Okay, I trust your judgment. At such a long distance, it is unrealistic to assemble troops from different places from the Vast Sea Protectorate, but we still need to set an expected target, and we can't let Gilneas go to waste. What should we do with this matter? end?"
"This question is debatable. My bottom line is that the orcs will not cross the border of Silverpine Forest, but I just don't know if Greymane can accept such a result."
It was another surprise that Lothar had no intention of favoring Gilneas at all, but then Lothar gave a reason.
"Not long ago, Brian Bronzebeard of Ironforge expressed his dissatisfaction with me."
‘Brian has returned to the Kingdom Continent? ’
A doubt flashed in Li De's mind. Brian and his Adventurer's Association helped a lot in opening up the road from Zul'Farrak to Feralas.
After the road was cleared, Brian took the adventurers to start the archaeological work on Eresharas. Shandris also mentioned this to Li De some time ago. In order not to cause misunderstanding, the Explorers Association is still The Sentinel has completed the filing.
However, Li De was not in a hurry to interrupt and listened patiently to Lothar to continue.
"Brian complained to me that when he was away, I paid too little attention to the Explorers Association, which led to the loss of many adventurers."
After the Grim Batol Incident, the Explorers Guild opened a branch in Alterac. Tasks issued by the Alterac authorities to the association were mainly to clean up the ogres in the wild, **** the caravan and **** the merchant ships to Huanhai Duhu.
"I heard Brian say they discovered an ancient elf city ruins in Kalimdor? Now is the time to need manpower, but in the Explorers' Association branch, he couldn't find anyone available.
This incident also made me a little embarrassed, and I specifically investigated the matter. After investigation, I found out that many adventurers were dissatisfied with the low salary of the tasks we released, and they were bought into Alterac to join the slave hunting team. "
After all, there are two main reasons for becoming an adventurer, one is for excitement, and the other is for money.
The tasks provided by Alterac are relatively monotonous and the salary is relatively stable. After the initial freshness has passed, some adventurers will inevitably leave with the lure.
It's just that Lothar didn't expect that they would be attracted to the slave hunters to do that kind of contemptible work.
"My beliefs do not allow me to have a deep prejudice against a person. But it is difficult for me to give a positive evaluation of Blackmore.
Dunhold is in Hillsbrad, and I've heard a little bit of what he did in the castle.
It's just that looking at the contents of the flyer now, the extent of his cooperation with Greymane is beyond my imagination. "
Lothar did not listen to either side. He would have a certain skeptical attitude towards the flyers of the orcs, and at the same time cast a scrutiny on Gilneas, which is why Lothar also has to wait and see, he will not support an unjust war.
"Ugh…"
At this time, Drektal sighed. The contents of this flyer shocked him, but he rarely expressed his attitude in today's discussion.
The Frostwolf clan is now in a state of being alone, and establishing trade on the front lines between the Alliance and Gorongas is what he can only do for the orcs.
"They did commit crimes in the war, and they should pay for it. But acts like this, other than distorting human nature and deepening the hatred between the two races, do not benefit either side.
Marshal Lothar. Li Deduhu, I beg you to make the alliance change, at least the punishment for those orcs should not be in this form. "
Drektal's speech was very cautious, and every word was carefully considered in order not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
"We will. Facts have proved that Alterac and the Frostwolf clan have achieved coexistence. We will not allow behavior that discards honor and justice to happen, but in the process, we also ask the shaman chiefs to make efforts."
Lothar made assurances to Drek'Thar, and at the same time made demands of his own, that peace is never unilateral. Just as the peace between Quel'Thalas, the high elves and the Amani was achieved in the first place, it was a tortuous process that required efforts and concessions on both sides.
"Rest assured, Drek'Thar will never shirk his responsibilities."
…
Several people in Alterac were ready to mediate, while in Gilneas City, Greymane was full of anger.
"Lordaeron, the land area is ten times that of Gilneas! The population is four or five times that of Gilneas! The wealth is ten times that of Gilneas!
Gu Cong
Terenas is so rich, what I have is not even as good as one of his great nobles, but he is so mean to me! "
Terenas's wait-and-see letter was also delivered to Greymane, which is why he complained about Blackmoore.
Although it is a bit exaggerated under the anger, it is still pretty much the same.
The land of Gilneas is limited to the southern area of Gilneas moved to the Gayinpine Forest, while Lordaeron owns the Tirisfal Glades and the entire East Wilder area. Can't get up.
"His Majesty Terenas has not been stingy for a day or two. During the Orc War, wasn't this majesty even more excessive, looking for various reasons to let other countries pay?"
Blackmore said strangely that the 200 slaves from the first ship of Farreville had been sent over. Although those jungle trolls were wild and hard to tame, they had rich experience accumulated from orcs. Blackmore believed that it was only a matter of time before they could tame them. So now he seems very confident.
"Alterac sent an army over, but it didn't seem very active in taking the initiative to attack."
After speaking about Lordaeron, Greymane mentioned the reinforcements sent by Lothar. Although he was not completely satisfied, he could feel a little more at ease with such an army.
"You really don't need to be overly anxious. Those orcs don't have the ability to attack cities. After all, they won't threaten your rule."
Blackmoore said this to Greymane as he was fixing the shape of his nails with a small file.
Greymane calmed down after losing his temper.
"You're right, those orcs can't threaten my rule, but those stupid people don't know. Just because there are orcs operating in the north, the city of Gilneas began to panic and rumors spread."
The information held by ordinary people is definitely not as comprehensive and true as the upper class, and even sometimes, the upper class will actively hide a lot of information, which makes the public often become a breeding ground for rumors.
In the past few years, the tribe has never had a single soldier set foot on the Gilneas Peninsula, which has led to the extremely lack of knowledge of the tribe in Gilneas, and the psychological tolerance of orcs is not comparable to that of other countries.
Fenris' troops appeared in the northern border of Gilneas, and Gilneas high-level officials hid a lot of information from the public. For a time, there were many versions of interpretations in Gilneas City.
The most outrageous one, even saying that the Alliance did not win the Horde at all! In the past few years, the battle reports from the outside world were all fake!
The second and third wars are all tricks of the upper echelons to deceive the people. Saying that the alliance has fought the tribes is just an excuse to collect taxes from the people.
The truth of the matter is that the Alliance is losing ground, the Horde has wiped out the other countries of the Alliance, and now the enemy army has finally reached the Gilneas Peninsula!
The chaos of public opinion in Gilneas has reached an unimaginable level, and gradually a voice began to appear among the people: flee this country!
According to rumors, although the Horde has destroyed other land countries of the Alliance, there is one country in the Alliance that is safe, and that is Kul Tiras at sea.
In just a few days, a lot of immigration agents have sprung up in Gilneas City, offering to help people escape to Kul Tiras.
This incident made Greymane quite distressed. He had to send a team to combat illegal immigrants in the city while guarding against the orcs.
While cracking down on those immigration agents, Greymane began to suspect again, was this a Kul Tiras conspiracy, Daelin was systematically stealing the population of Gilneas? !
It is not unfounded that Greymane would have such suspicions. After all, the country of Kul Tiras was established by a group of Gilneas who went to sea.
The Proudmoore family, to which Daelin belongs, is actually the Gilnean people. The first generation Proudmoore led a team and landed from the Tiragarde Sound in Kul Tiras, conquered the local aborigines and established the country of Kul Tiras.
This period of history is also known as the "Conquest of Tiragarde".
To this end, Greymane asked Daelin a question that was not very friendly, but he had not yet received a reply from Daelin.
Before getting a clear answer to this matter, Greymane can only put it aside, but he ordered the port to strictly check the smuggling ships, and turned to guard against the orcs on the front line.
Greymane would never have thought that this matter would attract the attention of someone thousands of miles away.
Van Cleef, who was sitting in Gadgetson's office, picked up this warm intelligence and quickly tasted something from it.
The founder of the Land Statistics Bureau immediately showed his talent in this area after accepting the intelligence work of Protector of the Seas.
After counting the situation around the Huanhai Protectorate, Van Cleef was not satisfied that the intelligence work stopped at Kalimdor.
Although everyone belongs to the same political alliance, Li De's tone for the work of the Bureau of Geographical Statistics is also defensive in nature.
What happened in Gilneas, Van Cleef keenly smelled a hint of conspiracy, he was very sure that this incident was not done by Han Hai.
But apart from the Vast Sea Protector, where else would Azeroth urgently need population? Van Cleef rolled his eyes twice, and the suspects were nothing more than those few.
"Director, are we going to take action? This matter has nothing to do with us, right?"
The secretary standing beside asked softly, Van Cleef was stunned for a moment and then laughed, almost choking on his own laughter.
This new girl is too jerky. Although she is extremely talented in stealth and assassination, she will get an exceptional entry, but in terms of intelligence work, she is completely a fledgling.
Under the blank stare of the other party, Van Cleef stopped laughing, and his expression immediately became extremely serious.
"I don't blame you for being a newcomer, but next time you talk nonsense, just pack up and get out of the way. The intelligence staff should listen more, read more, and talk less. Did they teach you on the first day of training? Stick to your secretary's rules. duty."
The serious Van Cleef was still very scary, the secretary immediately took two steps back, and stood still.
Van Cleef didn't say anything anymore, and immediately wrote an order in invisible ink: actively investigate the matter and give feedback in a timely manner.
While writing this order, Van Cleef was also weighing in his heart. Although he didn't know who the mastermind behind it was, if he did it properly, the Huanhai Protector would probably make a profit here.
