Before the Confederate troops approached from the northeast, the tribe retreated like a tidal tide. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info They even dodged the Union infantry that had circled around the rear of the Horde and was nailed there like a mainstay.

At this moment, Duke is just a feather fan, a robe of fairy wind bones, and he can go to pretend to be Brother Pig. The smile on his face makes people look full of confidence.

Obviously, he mobilized some known soldiers, but it was like controlling a magic box that could conjure up thousands of troops endlessly, always bringing in the most suitable troops when they were needed most.

A fierce surprise attack by Orgrim, under the command of Duke, turned into a gorgeous ten-sided ambush. Just now, even at the head of Lordaeron, you could see the clippers of Dalaran and Dalaran, who had arrived from the direction of Lake Lordanmere.

Arthas was first pleasantly surprised to find that his hometown, his royal city, had been saved, and then he remembered something with great horror.

"What if Dalaran and Gilneys' forces all come here, and the tribes of the Silver Pine Forest attack south?"

That's right, so what to do?

Not only Alsace, but several League generals wanted to know the answer to this question.

In fact, Duke wanted to teach Alsace that 'it is not necessarily a prince who rides a white horse, but also a monk. Those who mix with paladins can also become a demon king halfway. But in order to force the grid, and not to reveal the heavenly secrets. Duke teases Alsace as he calmly calms the Clippers on the lake.

"Your Highness, ships flying the flag of the alliance do not mean that they are all ships of the alliance. Even if it is a warship, it does not mean that it is full of soldiers. The Horde will only see the Coalition reinforcements arrive in a steady stream, but will never know that only ships, food, and sailors will come. ”

Whether it was Alsace, or the other alliance generals, they were suddenly moved.

Duke pointed to the huge army in the northeast with a well-organized lineup: "100,000 troops are not equal to 100,000 elites! The real elites are only the first few phalanxes." The latter are just farmers who have been training for less than three weeks. ”

That's right, Duke didn't conjure up the magic lamp of the army, he just put the griffon army in front of him and pretended. Behind them are the farmers who are provided by the local nobles of Lordaeron, but after these days of training, at least the march is still somewhat present. Once the real knife is real, these guys who have not experienced the experience of blood and fire, even if they have bright armor, are still those cowardly farmers in their bones.

The young Arthas was shocked: "This ...... Is this all right?"

"Why not?" Duke stroked his sweaty hair, "Didn't I mobilize so many troops just to save the city of Lordaeron that almost fell? ”

Alsace's eyes lit up.

Duke's just right command, those realistic disguises to deceive the enemy, those military arrangements that even his own people have fooled perfectly...... Duke's virtual and real way of using troops opened Arthas's eyes and showed him what it means to be a commander.

The scenes that Alsace experienced today are like pictures imprinted on his soul, opening doors to a wider realm for him, and he feels that he has benefited a lot.

Suddenly, Arthas had an impulse, and he strode forward and bowed his noble head to Duke: "Your Excellency Marcus...... I...... Can I learn the art of war from you as a teacher?"

Duke, the others, were all stunned.

The master of the prince of the most powerful country on the continent sounds so lofty! Unfortunately, when he thinks of Arthas, who killed his father and his teacher in history, Duke has a feeling of nausea swallowing flies alive.

Duke didn't answer, he looked into the distance outside the east gate. Countless orc corpses crawled there, as well as the remains of more than two thousand civilians.

Duke's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he remembered what Lilath had told him that Arthas had ordered the door to close.

He is not a saint, and he has no ability to save every civilian in danger on the continent. In Duke's eyes, there was no choice between saving 300,000 people or abandoning 3,000.

If he had known beforehand about the enemy's attack, as Alsace did, he would have been more secure in arranging for these civilians to take refuge, rather than waiting for the catastrophe to come before deciding whether to abandon them.

Before crossing over, Duke often heard the old saying, "Don't take evil for the lesser." ”

Historically, Alsace began to fall precisely because of the slaughter of the inhabitants of Stratholme, who were infected with the plague and about to turn into zombies, in order to take care of the overall situation.

Duke wondered if Alsace would be different in this life. After all, Alsace is only a teenager now, a relatively simple prince.

Duke was shocked to find that it was really character that decided fate - the scene of abandoning 3,000 civilians obviously had nothing to do with the original history, and Arthas still made a similar decision to that scene.

It's so ruthless!

The experience of Alsace in history may be worthy of sympathy, but this guy is clearly a template for the hero in his bones!

At this thought, Duke had a decision, and he pointed beyond the east gate: "A commander can say that every moment must make a decision about who to let die. But the original intention of the commander is to defend the country and the people. And the soldiers who carry out the orders of the commander-in-chief are also willing to give everything they have for it. I think that Your Highness, before learning the way of commandery, should first learn the principles of life and the way of the Holy Light from His Excellency the Archbishop of the Holy Light. ”

With that, Duke walked away without looking back, leaving the stunned generals of Lordaeron and Arthas, who had been struck by lightning, stunned in place.

Cleaning up the battlefield and counting losses certainly doesn't have to be done by Duke.

Duke divided his troops into two parts: one was the 20,000 Stormwind Kingdom infantry who had come from Hillsbrad before, and after the battle, there were less than 15,000 men left. Duke let them all enter Lordaeron, and the other part of the army from the northern outpost towers, with the griffon army as the core, together with the remaining cavalry force of less than 6,000 men, set up a large camp in the north of Lordaeron, forming a horn with the city of Lordaeron. The main thing is to prevent Orgrim's main force from merging with the 100,000 orcs of Grom*Hell's Roar.

On this day, Orgrim was waiting for the arrival of the ogre forces, while the Alliance quickly put the city in order to organize its defenses, and was also waiting for the return of Lordaeron's main force.

Finally, at noon the next day, the alliance first waited for Mograini, who had returned with his army. When the famous Ember Messenger saw that Lordaeron's banner was still planted on the city's head, the iron-clad man dismounted and wept on the spot, kissing the land of Lordaeron......
