Chapter 512: Clearing the Wasteland
If it was before the battle of the Demon Nexus was over, the arrival of Mograine and the others would undoubtedly be great news, but now it was a little embarrassing to rush to Northrend at this time...... With the exception of Uther's Knights of the Blade, Lordaeron's elite forces were now almost all gathered here, but there was no battle for a while.
Originally, Su Chen thought that after the end of the battle of the Demon Hub, he could deal with the Undead Scourge with the Dragon Sleeping Legion, but now the Undead Scourge took the initiative to retreat, and even gave up the Tomb of Galakron without hesitation, and retreated to the Icecrown Glacier to defend it in danger, and the Red Dragon Queen went to the Grizzly Hill again, and was delayed by the World Tree of the Night Elves, which also caused the Dragon Clan's plan to exterminate the Undead Scourge had to be postponed.
Su Chen and Tirio. Ferding traveled to the seashore to meet Mograine and Daelyn Proudmore, along with Mordran of Dalaran and Celesta, who had left the Nexus with him.
The hundreds of High Elves who had joined the Blue Dragon Legion and then left had almost all gathered around him with Celesta.
Su Chen had promised to send them back to Silver Moon City and help them solve the troubles caused by their addiction, but he naturally didn't have time to return to the Eastern Continent at present, so he could only take them to stay in the Dragon Sleep Temple with him, and temporarily incorporated the Silver Hand to assist in the battle.
This also made Su Chen once again moved by those elves in Silvermoon City, among which were rich in mages and excellent archers, and now that Kael'thas was missing, it was a great opportunity to try to control Silvermoon City.
When the group reached the beach, the makeshift harbor was full of warships.
All kinds of ships docked one after another, and the sails of the ships obscured the vast sea.
Mograine, who was carrying the Ash Messenger, was busy arranging for the orderly landing of his soldiers, and the navy of Kul Tiras, who had always called the sea home, could have stayed on board the ship.
As soon as Mograini saw Su Chen coming, he immediately greeted him excitedly, and at the same time, he did not forget to take the initiative to ask for battle, hoping to become the vanguard of the undead natural disaster.
"I'm sorry you're late...... We are not fighting now, those undead have retreated, the war with the Blue Dragon Legion is over, and Tirio and the others can only stay in the Dragon Sleep Temple and wait for those dragons to make the decision to fight. Su Chen smiled bitterly.
When he was guarding the Dragon Sleep Temple before, he had already seen the current combat power of the Undead Scourge, which was not something that the human army could currently destroy, not to mention that Nao Zu had operated so much in the Icecrown Glacier, and it was estimated that the surroundings of the Frozen Throne were full of defensive measures, and he was afraid that the losses would be extremely heavy if he forcibly attacked.
Therefore, he can only wait for the dragon clan to face the undead natural disaster before he can lead the human army north.
"The Undead Scourge retreated so quickly? Wouldn't we have made a trip for nothing? Mograine looked annoyed, knowing that they had rushed all the way from Silisus in the far south to Northrend in the far north, desperately speeding up along the way, but finally arrived at it, but the war was over.
"It's not a trip in vain, we will definitely have a battle with the Undead Scourge, but now the queen of the dragon clan is dealing with other things, and she must wait for her to return before she makes a new battle plan against the Undead Scourge."
"Really...... So we're just going to have to wait here now? Mograini's face was full of frustration.
"Well, that's all there is to it for now." Su Chen was also quite helpless about this, the efficiency of the dragon clan was really terrifyingly low.
"But tens of thousands of people stay here, even if they don't do anything, the daily consumption is not a small number." Daylin Prodmoore said worriedly.
In many cases, wars are fought for economy and logistics, and tens of thousands of human legions have come to Northrend far from home, and the logistical consumption is indeed very large.
"At the moment, our logistics are all supplied by the dragons, but this is probably not a long-term solution, and the battle against the undead scourge is likely to last for a long time, so I think we can establish a base of our own in this northern continent." Su Chen said in a deep voice.
He first set out to establish a port and a lakeside city on the continent of Kalimdor, and then gradually expanded, eventually occupying almost the entire barren land, and firmly confined the tribe to Durotar.
In time, humanity may be able to build a kingdom no less than Lordaeron in Kalimdor!
Although the climate in Northrend is cold, it is not completely impossible to survive, at least there are still a large number of natives who have survived, such as the trolls of Zoldak, who have formed a huge kingdom.
"Your Highness's idea is good, we should indeed establish our own base here, if we completely rely on others for supplies, it will undoubtedly be tantamount to handing over our fate to others." Tirio. Furding immediately agreed.
"But it seems to be covered in snow and ice, and we can't live by catching those rabbits in the snow......" Mograini looked around, but there was nothing to be seen around but ice and snow.
"The place we are where we are now is indeed completely covered with ice and snow, in fact, this land has long been occupied by the five-colored dragon clan, there is not much left for us, it is not worth cultivating, but there are large forests and hills in the east, it is estimated that it is no worse than the forest of Lordaeron, and it is a good place for us to establish a base." Su Chen said with a smile.
Even the Night Elves have chosen to plant the World Tree in Grizzly Hills, apparently valuing the beautiful environment there, and now they are taking advantage of the lack of competitors to take people to enclose a large area.
Su Chen quickly drew a sketch by hand, in fact, with the assistance of Zhi Brain, he could already draw a map of most of Northrend in great detail, but in order to avoid suspicion, he deliberately drew the map very roughly, and then sketched out the places where the base could be established.
"There's a nice harbor here, it's perfect for a big port, and there's a river that goes all the way inland and we can reclaim along the river, and we should be able to reclaim a big farm soon."
Su Chen originally thought that the belligerent Mograini would be quite resistant to this, but unexpectedly, Mograini took the initiative to agree to this decision, and even took the initiative to ask for his own reclamation.
"I'll lead the Scarlet Crusaders to that hill to reclaim, in fact, all of my soldiers are dizzy because they have been at sea for too long, and they really need to find a place to rest in order to regain their combat effectiveness." Mograini scoffed. (To be continued.) )
