Chapter 197: The Barov Family (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Honest, courageous, wise, and loyal, Duke has become almost synonymous with saints in the hearts of everyone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In fact, aside from being a little clever as a traverser, Duke's other three are bullshit.
Duke never thought he had ever pledged allegiance to Ryan.
As a modern person, he is a boss and a working boy in his bones, and Duke has never had the kind of fascination that gave his life for the other party.
As a time-traveler familiar with the direction of history, Duke knows that it is impossible to have no money, but too much money is actually useless.
The most important thing is strength. Own, as well as the strength of their own subordinates.
According to history, the first orc war was over when the dark gate was opened and Stormwind was captured.
Then, with the orc army regrouping and going north, looking for trouble for all races and kingdoms on the continent, it is marked by the beginning of the 'Second Orc War'.
Duke didn't know if the orcs would continue to fight to the death against all the races and all the great powers on the continent, as they did in history. Obviously, when Duke saw that the similarity of the world of Azeroth dropped from 80% to 79% in the systematic evaluation, Duke realized that the urinary nature of history would continue to be strikingly similar.
Duke kept 50,000 elite soldiers, plus saved Ryan, who was not dead in history, of course, Khadgar was forced to hang up, killed hundreds of thousands of orc elite soldiers, and also pit Orgrim fiercely, so many fate deviations, only to make the similarity drop by 1%, think about it is also drunk.
However, if you think about the tall Burning Legion that will appear later, what kind of Creation Titan, you suddenly feel as if you have done so much, in exchange for 1% of the world's change is also remarkable.
Well, back to reality.
At noon the next day, the first ships arrived. The ships also had plenty of space to carry 16,000 people after replenishing some daily necessities and medicines for those who continued to wait on the island.
On the boat, Duke was already busy.
Because of the tribe's lack of attention to the western wilderness, Duke was able to smuggle the summer grain that had not yet been delivered to Stormwind to Nanhai Town, which could greatly alleviate the food shortage in Nanhai Town.
Then there's the migration of the fish-man and the Naga. In fact, the orcs can't do anything about the fish-people on the coast, but Duke has a place where the fish-people are more needed - Nanhai Town.
The entire Eastern Kingdom continent is actually divided into two continents, the north and the south, and is connected by a huge Sadol Bridge.
To the south of the Southern Continent is the Kingdom of Stormwind and its territories, and to the north of the Southern Continent is the Dwarven territory centered on Ironforge Keep.
To the southeast of the northern continent is the Arathi Heights, where the Kingdom of Stormgard was located, with Fort Riptide as its capital.
Due south is the Hills of Hillsbrad, the territory of the Alterac Kingdom, the weakest of the Seven Kingdoms of Mankind. The place where the Stormwind refugees were evacuated was the town of Southsea, located south of the Hillsbrad Hills, just by the sea.
A little west of the northern continent is the magical kingdom of Dalaran, and a little further north is the most powerful kingdom of Lordaeron.
Of course, the northernmost part of the entire northern continent is the kingdom of Quel'Thalas, where the High Elves are located.
Now, Duke migrates the Fishmen because Duke needs them to help recover the Fishmen there, as well as to fish as much as he can, and provide fish for the refugees of the Stormwind Kingdom.
About 50,000 refugees from the Stormwind Kingdom were taken in by the Sea Kingdom of Kurtiras, and 100,000 people were heading in the direction of Fort Riptide, Alterac, Dalaran, and even Lordaeron. Those who are really stranded in Nanhai Town are less than 450,000 people, counting the 50,000 elite soldiers who are about to arrive.
Even then, it is a very heavy burden.
Through the system wizard, Duke has calculated that even if he finds enough land to reclaim immediately, he will still have a shortage of at least 20,000 tons of grain until the first grain harvest next year.
In this day and age, it's almost astronomical.
This is completely more than the amount of food that can be bought by commercial purchases.
Ryan escaped reality and threw the food problem on Duke's head.
This gave Duke a toothache.
He had to do as many things as a mountain, such as taking the time to go to the Valley of Thorns, the southernmost part of the Eastern Kingdom's continent, to pick up the remaining Blood Sail Pirates. Another example is taking time to practice magic.
After much consideration, in the end, Duke decided to pay a visit to the Barov family in Alterac first.
Many people may wonder why the town of Nanhai belongs to the kingdom of Alterac, and Duke does not visit the king, but what Barov family does he visit?
This starts with the egg-sore history of the kingdom of Alterac.
The history of the Kingdom of Alterac is very short, that is, the events of these twenty years.
Aiden Pirenod, the original leader who founded the Alterac Kingdom, was born into a wealthy family and founded the Alterac Kingdom in order to have his own place. He chose to establish his kingdom on the steep Alterac Mountains, with barren land and poor living conditions, and very few people willing to follow him, leaving the kingdom virtually small in scope and power.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Alterac is the weakest of the seven human nations.
The situation did not improve until the accession of the Barov family.
The Barov family of the Alterac Kingdom was a wealthy family that held a vast land east of the Alterac Mountains, including Brill, Talenmere, Keldaron, and the towns of Southsea.
Their wealth is greater than that of the Alterac royal family, and they are of Arachi blood, and the people of the family live in the old castle of the Alahi people, the old castle of the Alahi people.
In fact, it is the Barov family that Duke has been dealing with.
From the very beginning, Duke did not put the goal of getting food on other forces. The grain transportation of this era was terrible.
As long as it is far away, it is easy to lose 50% of the food. The only thing Duke was fortunate for was that in this era, because of the unstable grain harvest, most families had the habit of stockpiling food. As long as the rich Barov family is dealt with, there will be no need to worry about food until next year.
A week later, Ryan and Duke arrived in the town of Southsea.
Ryan was amazed by the expanded Nanhai Town—a stone pier made of Stormwind City, an endless array of neat wooden houses from the entrance of Nanhai Town, medical care, food, firefighting, toilets, and all kinds of living facilities, and even a huge wooden fence being built.
But Lane hurried out on his way to Lordaeron after pacifying the people.
Duke, on the other hand, left Windsor to help him train his privates, and he took Makaro and the others as a façade to Keldaron County to meet Alex Barov, King Aiden's nemesis, now Duke Barov. (To be continued.) )
