What kind of grudge is it to be able to make the people of your own country oppose your own army?

For a long time, the luxurious life of the Lordaeron aristocracy has long forgotten the voice of the people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoFor them, the people are just wheat that grows automatically every year, and they have various responsibilities and obligations: they must provide taxes to the nobility, they must provide labor services to the nobility, and they must provide soldiers when the country is in danger.

More than 2,000 years of peace and long years have long made the nobles forget that their ancestor was a warrior canonized by Soladin the Great, and this warrior's name was Lordan, and the warrior's son was called Minehir.

Later, Minethil named the land that had been given to him by Soladin the Great Lord, and Minethil became the surname of the royal family. In that era when clans were the main ones and there were no surnames, this was already a precedent-setting move.

Suddenly opposed by the seemingly docile people, not only Terenus, but also all the costumed Lordaeron nobles around him were disgraced.

"It's a shameful misunderstanding. Jean Greymayne said: "It seems that someone below has misunderstood the difference between a triumph and a parade. ”

Of course, Terenus did not know that at this moment, the arrogant and seemingly standard politician of King Gilneth would change his temperament in the future due to various blows, and become the most solid ally of the alliance. All he knew was that Jean was taking advantage of the fire.

That's right, because after Lord Presto appeared, and he presented that evidence. Jean secretly offered to support one of Pirenod's so-called nephews, who couldn't be further away, but Terenus ruthlessly refused.

Now, everything is different.

Looking at Anduin Lothar and Duke Marcus at the head of the triumphant procession, Terenus knew that it all had something to do with these two men. If he doesn't do something, then in the throne meeting, even if he forces that resolution, the scene will be very unsightly.

"It's old. Before the triumphant procession reached the palace, I wanted to take a break. Why don't you all go to the side hall and rest for each other?" "Who doesn't know that if the scene is favorable, Terenus can stand from dawn to dusk?"

Now that he has brought it up, it is clear to everyone that this is another round of quick and urgent political bargaining.

Prince Kael'thas, as the representative of Quel'Thalas, understands that this is a political game in the human world, and has nothing to do with elves. He was the one who really rested.

The two kings, Ryan and Dalein, glanced at each other, and both saw each other's deep apprehension.

Now that Terenus is relying on the old and selling the old, you can't not allow the old king, who is a landlord and a leader, to rest, right?

Ryan and the two nodded quietly to each other, and they would meet later.

All of a sudden, the terrace of the palace, which was more than 100 square meters, was empty, and no king would begin to reach the triumphal procession in front of the palace after twenty minutes.

In the side hall, Terenus pushed open the massive golden door. The gorgeous murals on the walls had always been his greatest pride and pride, but now he had no intention of appreciating them.

The first to meet, naturally, was Jean.

Jean was extremely greedy for Terenus, but he was the best convincing for that.

"Yo, Terenus, it looks like that Duke kid is giving you a lot of trouble. ”

"It's just the level of trouble. Terenus grimaced: "Say, how can you support Presto on the throne?"

"I want the Plains of Hillsbrad, the Jasper Caves, Tobalad Island, and the West Coast next to the town of Southsea. ”

Knowing that Jean would open his mouth, he didn't expect Jean's appetite to be so big, and he took away more than half of the essence of Hillsbrad in one bite. The Plains of Hillsbrad, after being reclaimed by the refugees of the Stormwind Kingdom, now everyone knows that it is a thousand miles of fertile land.

The refugees will be withdrawn next year, and it is conceivable that with the support of this fertile soil, Gilneys's national power will grow explosively within 20 years.

Terenus had a pain in his face: "Good!"

The second to see was King Solas Tolbairn of Stormgard.

Terenus spoke first, "Soras, you must support Lord Presto this time. Can give you Talummere and Southsea Town. ”

Solas sat in his sumptuous chair like a stone sculpture for a long time before he shook his head: "Perhaps their king and lord are guilty, but the people of Riptide cannot ask for the land of the Alteracs, this is a blasphemy against the valiant warriors." ”

As soon as Sollas said this, Tyrenus was in a hurry on the spot. Of the six human kingdoms, it is conceivable that Kurtilas and Storm, who are outsiders, will vote against it, and he will have to get at least four votes in the throne council to look good.

Who would have thought that Solas would actually refuse!

Yes, that's right, Terenus's previous plan was to eat Lordaeron alone. Now that Lasolas is in the water, he doesn't even play!?

Terenus's face sank, "Think about it, Soras, your land has been scorched. You even gave you food for the winter. You can be noble, but can you bear to watch your people starve to death? ”

Soras's face changed dramatically. Terenus is using food as a threat.

To the south of Stormgard is the territory of the dwarves, and both the wetlands and the Lokmodan have poor food production, and the dwarves barely have enough food for their own use. There is no exit from the Arathi Heights except for the Hillsbear area to the west. If Lordaeron-controlled Alterac were to block the way, hundreds of thousands of civilians could be expected to starve to death.

To restore Arashi's food production, the advisers gave him the same answer...... Ideally, it will take three years.

What's more, he also has to rebuild Riptide Castle, which was destroyed by the dragon.

Solas lowered his head deeply, as if he wanted to bury his head between his knees: "I don't want the land, give me at least 500,000 tons of grain every year for five consecutive years." ”

As a knight of high character, he hated such political dealings.

As a king responsible for the future of millions of people, he had to compromise with Terenus.

Terenus is gone, not satisfied, but at least he has achieved his goal.

At the third meeting, Terenus struck the hardest nail - Antonidas, whom he had thought would be easier to convince.

"Terenus, I'm not against you. But Dalaran resolutely refused Lord Presto. ”

"Why?" said Terenus with a deep frown.

"Because the Council of Kenrito has secretly exhausted all magical detection powers, it is impossible to see through this mysterious Lord Presto. He's either a Sun-level mage who can match me, or he has a mysterious magic item on him that rivals a demigod. We will never support a mysterious man of unknown origin who is not even sure of his identity to be the king of Alterac. (To be continued.) )
