Chapter 493: The Day of Duke's Away
The roar in the throne hall still echoed in my ears. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I'm against it! Marcus is already on his way to save Alexstaza. As always, we should trust our lieutenant-in-chief. King Ryan retorted angrily, like a wounded lion.
"I've always believed in him, I've given him two weeks, but I've waited until my son dies in battle, and he hasn't even gotten rid of those damn red lizards!" Dalein came back and pushed back mercilessly. The eyes of this sea lion who had just lost his **** were full of terrifying bloodshots.
Ryan was speechless, even if it was him, if something happened to Varian, he would go crazy.
Dalin continued to roar, and the blazing sound waves echoed through the hall: "What do you see he has done in the past 14 days? Hundreds of soldiers have died in the flames every day on the front line, and he has been tossing and turning for 14 days on a road that could have been reached directly to his destination with a griffin or a portal! There is not a single report on his progress, there is no regular contact, and we don't even know if he survives. Thou hast called me, thou hast called the kings of the throne hall how to continue to trust in him. ”
"But ......"
"Our Vice-Commander, who is cursed with death in his body, is overdrawing the Alliance's trust in him at the cost of soldiers' lives. King Jean hit the nail on the head.
This sentence made Ryan's heart twitch again.
"What country has not sacrificed since the beginning of the war? War must be accompanied by sacrifices. Antonidas tactfully persuaded Ryan to give up Duke.
Ryan shuddered, for him and the Stormwind Kingdom, he and Lothar were destined to grow old, and in the future they would still have to hand over the country to Varian, Berval, and Duke. And Duke is definitely the hope for the restoration of the Stormwind Kingdom.
Emotionally and intellectually, he was reluctant to believe in Duke's defeat and fall.
Anduin couldn't see it anymore: "At least wait for the last contact!" he made an appointment to give a magical communication every three days. ”
Terenus looked businesslike: "Yes, but I hope that Your Excellency the Commander will put the alliance first and allow us to organize a large assault force first." Once there is no news from the deputy commander-in-chief......"
Anduin Lothar gritted his teeth fiercely: "I agree!"
It's not over yet.
"Next Agenda -- At a time when Deputy Commander Duke Marcus is unable to perform his duties, I propose that the Coalition have an additional Deputy Commander. Coordinate the actions of the nations. Jean said with a sudden raise of his hand.
Ryan and Anduin's pupils shrank suddenly.
What the hell is Gilneth doing?
Or did that old bastard of Jean have already made some kind of private offensive and defensive alliance with Tyrenus?
To be honest, Duke is not there, and there is indeed a problem with the coordination of the alliance.
Tulayan, who was Anduin's deputy, temporarily took over Duke's work, and the results could be said to be very unsatisfactory. Tulayan has good command, but he can't do it all by himself like Duke, such as logistics, troop transfer, and war.
It's been a year since the alliance was established, and it's not the same situation where each kingdom doesn't accept each other and needs to find a neutral to take the cylinder. In Duke's absence, Tulayan's fame is not enough to convince the public, which is the most deadly. Having never tried to lead an army alone, without great prowess and without a suitable title, it can be said that Tulayan was treated negatively by the kings of various countries when he carried out his work.
Moreover, in the case of actual combat, it is often necessary to divide troops into multiple routes, and one deputy commander is indeed not enough.
As a result, it is very logical that Alessandros Mograini, the Grand Lord of Lordaeron, was elected second lieutenant commander with a high vote. Theoretically under Duke, but it was clear to any king that once it was determined that Duke was hanging, then Mograini was the de facto deputy commander.
Back at the State Guesthouse, Ryan was rarely furious: "Anduin, that bastard of Terenus is trying to overhead you!"
Lothar was silent for a long time: "If this is for the victory of the alliance, I can accept it. ”
"I'm afraid that the old brute is not just for the victory of the Alliance!" Ryan swept everything on the table to the ground at once.
This is no longer a conspiracy, this is simply a conspiracy.
Yes, everyone has noticed that Lordaeron has changed.
In the beginning, every Lordaeron joined this seemingly distant war with the mentality that he was the savior on high and saved you fools, and that the nations would come and worship me.
But when the tribe burned down the Silver Pines Forest, threatened St. Stratholme, and even hit the city of Lordaeron, when the great majesty of the Lordaeron was ruthlessly trampled on, everything changed.
It is no longer the atmosphere of life and death at the border, and I am still singing and dancing internally, but the whole country presents a kind of bigotry from top to bottom, which is unreasonable for outsiders.
Revenge!
It's not just bloody revenge!
And it's going to be a great victory.
It is a great victory for six human kingdoms, two dwarven kingdoms, one elven kingdom, and all nine kingdoms to worship.
Terenus's proud squadron of thieves failed.
Finally, Terenus waited for this opportunity.
Worst of all, Lordaeron, as the leader of the alliance, set a very bad precedent......
Just as Ryan was throwing a tantrum, the guards summoned Duke's maid to see him.
"Duke's maid?"
"Well, we've all seen her, her name is Vanessa Van Cleve. ”
"Van Cleef?" Ryan remembered the last name, of course, one of the two heroes who helped the people of the Stormwind Kingdom secure a base behind enemy lines, "Let her in." ”
Vanessa came in and said something that made Ryan furious!
"Your Majesty, please save my master's apprentice, Miss Illusia Barov, whom the nobles of Lordaeron are going to marry by force. ”
"What!?" Ryan and Anduin lost their voices at the same time.
Almost everyone in the league knows about Duke's relationship with Illusia. Illusia, who is already faintly Duke's left arm and right-hand man, appears as Duke's spokesperson on many occasions, such as representing Duke at diplomatic banquets in Quel'Thalas.
No one on the Stormwind Kingdom side expected that Duke would just lose contact and Lordaeron would attack Illusia.
In Vanessa's angry narrative, the Ryan and the others know what happened.
In the end, it was a sentence - Terenus had his eye on the land of Alterac.
Lordaeron was wounded, and the nobles of Lordaeron were not only hungry for glory and vengeful blood, but they also longed for tangible benefits.
King Aiden's lineage has been severed, and Aiden himself will eventually be nailed to the pillar of shame because of his betrayal of the alliance and the betrayal of humanity. The last obstacle to Alterac is Duke Barov.
There was news that the two sons of the duke had joined the Horde, but this news was not finalized. (To be continued.) )
