Chapter 423: Eastern Plague Strategy (Part II)
Sure enough, Kel'thugad and Arthas have already set their sights on Old Ferdin, Kel'thugad's attack is probably just an introduction, Arthas has not personally come to the Eastern Plague Lands, it is foreseeable that the Scourge must have another big move against the Silver Hand.
"Let Hawksbill send the appropriate troops to reinforce it, but be careful not to face the Scourge head-on, only knock from the side."
Quienzas said puzzled: "Lord Regent, with our strength, we can completely wipe out the scourge in the Eastern Plague Land with the Silver Hand, since the Battle of Stratholme, the last lair of the Scourge Legion in the Eastern Plague Land has been breached, only the floating fortress of the Scourge, Naxxramas, has not been defeated, we are completely fearless, wouldn't it be better to directly destroy the Scourge?" ”
"No, that's not enough." Patrick looked at the council: "With the silver hand re-held by Old Ferdin, although the strength has greatly increased, helping us attract the hatred of the Scourge Legion, but they are too strong, they are still an uncontrollable force, and the best result is to let the Silver Hand and the Scourge Legion fight to lose both." ”
"But our troops are fighting passively, and they are also clearly letting humans be substitutes for the dead, and those proud soldiers of Lordaeron will probably settle accounts after the fall." Haduron added, "I'm suggesting that it's best to let Hawksbill avoid the onslaught of the Scourge, and wait until the paladins launch a counter-attack, and then it's too late. ”
"Very good, then the specific arrangements will be handed over to your military department this time, come up with a detailed plan as soon as possible, notify Hawksbill and them in time, and at the same time step up the guard work at Quellins."
"Yes!!" Haduron was ordered to sit down.
Politics is the art of controlling interests. The main question is, depending on which position you stand on. The former parliamentarians, their positions are undoubtedly their respective families, as for the ordinary elves, as well as the royal family of the Sunseeker, except for the necessary respect, it is basically not in the consideration of the council bigwigs such as Jainrini and Seigor.
In the face of their aggressiveness, no matter who they are, they can only back down, even His Majesty Anastarian, who can only protect the members of the royal party and the sunwell, and is completely unable to meddle in the parliamentary faction. As for Patrick himself, in the face of the parliamentarians, he has no power to resist anything other than forbearance and the tower of sunshine.
Even if he gave up the distribution of power in Silvermoon City, the four big bosses of the council still refused to let go of themselves, and there was never a shortage of conspiracies and tricks, and Sennior even did not hesitate to sacrifice all the elves in the entire Golden Branch Valley, but also borrowed the hands of the orcs to completely get rid of himself. But afterwards, even if he found out the matter directly in front of Anastarian, all he got was some money and an insincere apology.
So in the same way, when Patrick invaded Alsace, he only wanted to protect himself and those who trusted him. You can get rid of me by the hand of the orcs, why can't I get rid of you by the hand of Arthas? Everyone has their own plans, but there is a slight difference, and compared to Señol, Patrick has long seen the future.
Then Arthas's hand pulled out the entire parliamentary faction, the Sunwing family, the Drahir family and other high-level clans, they have been operating in Silvermoon City for thousands of years, and their foundation is solid, only by catching Arthas by catching him off guard, in the midst of the panic, he can expose more of his wings, and at the same time wipe out those parliamentary factions in the light and hidden in the shadows. Who is the clown who jumps off the beam, who is the loyal pillar, who has experienced the baptism of life and death, you can see it clearly, only by cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, can we never suffer in the future.
Who is really for Quel'Salas, who is lying, this kind of thing, only after experiencing and tasting the bitter fruit, will it be unforgettable.
Hypocrite? Politician? Careerist? Patrick didn't care what the others said, at least he could give Quel'Thalas a good future, and the council couldn't. But then again, if Seignol, Jainrini, and Greenville had directly and unconditionally believed in Patrick, would it have been another situation?
But it doesn't matter, Patrick insists that the so-called explosion of the protagonist's anger instantly makes the parliamentarians turn against each other and surrender, let the protagonist sing a one-man show in the parliament, and everyone works together to fight for the kingdom, this kind of thing is only in fairy tales, and it is impossible in reality.
While pondering, Liadline, the leader of the Morning Striker, spoke, "Lord Regent, we have made a new discovery in our recent research on Naru. This time, the main research object is Leoselas, who has just returned. ”
Eri: "Leoselas was trained as a Demon Hunter, and he persevered through that brutal training, but in the end, when he transformed into a Demon Hunter, he appeared. Leothera can't fully control the demon soul in his body, he will be controlled by demons from time to time, and sometimes he can't even prevent demons from occupying his body, before we have been using warlocks to help Leotheras suppress the demons in his body, until one time Leothera felt bad and directly found the warlocks who were absorbing the power of the shadow of Cwure, looking for them to help suppress the demons. ”
Eri: "At this time, I found out that even the dark form of Naru is extremely hateful to demons, when Leoselas got close to Cwure, he was immediately controlled by Naru, and began to absorb the demon's soul, until now, the demon's soul has been greatly weakened, Leothera is also slowly controlling the demon in his body, and he is staying awake for longer and longer. ”
After listening to Eri's report, Patrick almost instantly thought about what this meant. Naru can directly absorb the demon's soul, and if so, those demon hunters who have been infused with demonic souls will have an extra guarantee.
Moreover, it also means that the success rate of Demon Hunters can be artificially increased. Needless to say, just from the fact that the Demon Hunter apprentice can fight against high-level demons, it can be seen that this is a very powerful profession, but the training of the Demon Hunter is particularly difficult and very dangerous, and the slightest carelessness will cause the apprentice to die, or completely become a puppet of the demon.
But with Eri's new discoveries, perhaps he has found a new way out for the demon hunters: "To fully record this data and help Leothera regain his senses as soon as possible, what the kingdom needs is a Leoselas who is dedicated to fighting for the kingdom, not an elf who will be controlled by demons from time to time." ”
