Menethil
Garithos, who was looking forward to the famous and just words to start the war, wrote a special report about the war, and asked Priest who accompanied the army to quickly send Lordaeron City back to Lordaeron City, who had been practicing the teachings for many years, Priest, who has been trained, has a willpower that is difficult for soldiers to match, and a running speed that is unparalleled by a horse. The battle situation is sent to Terenas as quickly as possible. ✿.。.:* ☆::. .::.☆*.:。.✿
Just when Terenas received the battle situation from Garithos, Zul'ra in Zul'Aman also received the situation from Cook from Zul'Mashar. Lordaeron did not continue to advance and withdrew its troops after attacking the North Valley stronghold.
To be honest, Zul'ra was a little confused about Lordaeron's withdrawal. He had already prepared Cook to give up Zul'Mashar and withdraw. The preparations to the north of the Thalas Mountains turned out to be better on the Lordaeron side, and they actually withdrew their troops directly. Could it be that the troops had not been assembled yet? But it was not quite right. Why did he attack before the troops were fully assembled?
If it is a surprise attack, it will not have any effect if carried out at this time. If the surprise attack is to be carried out during spring plowing, autumn plowing and double harvest, it can destroy the farming harvest. What the hell is Lordaeron doing?
Zul'ra is a little speechless, but no matter how speechless he is, he can only accept it. Who knows what Lordaeron is doing, and maybe this is their trick. Anyway, he has prepared an army here, and he will fight if he dares to come. Anyway, winter is fast approaching, farm work and other things are almost done, and there is enough food.
After the beacon warning, Zul'ra not only used the messenger system to ask Xinying to write a letter to Cook of Zul'Mashar, asking him about the next situation, but also sent letters to Jintha'Alor and respectively. Shadra'lo wrote a notice to prepare for mobilization for battle. He also sent an order to all the bases at sea, asking the existing warships in the north to gather at Smolderthorn Port and form a battle group with Bat Nest as the center. Every minute of delay gave his army one more minute to prepare.
Compared to Zul'ra, who was confused but still prepared, Terenas, on the other hand, was completely confused after receiving the war situation report from Garithos. He was forced to expand his stronghold in the Tyr's Hand forest and build a seaside dock. This was purely for strategic needs and had no intention of fighting at all. He didn't even have the idea of provoking Amani.
Although the news of the secret contract between Amani and Quel'Thalas has not spread, Terenas, as an excellent king, still has some foresight. If he fights Forest Trolls, he is not working for Quel'Thalas in vain. Is this work possible? However, Garithos seems to have made the decision for him.
The moment he received the news of the battle, Terenas was not only confused, but also read the battle report carefully. After knowing that Garithos took the initiative to provoke a reaction, he just wanted to pull Garithos, who was thousands of miles away, in front of him and kill him. What a fool he was.
Although he was an idiot, he had already done something stupid. The battle report was sent by Priest who was running in a hurry. It took about a day and a half. Terenas immediately asked the court mage to use teleportation to ask about the situation, and then summoned his advisers, staff, and the leaders of Order of the Silver Hand to ask about the situation.
A large group of people summoned by Terenas are all his confidants and are only loyal to Menethil's ministers. But when they didn't want to meet, a Hearthglen suddenly came Highlord, also the backbone of Silver Hand, Tirion·Fordring, one of the original five Paladin.
Although Tirion is also the minister of Lordaeron, the ministers of Lordaeron and the ministers of Menethil are different after all, especially Tirion still has influence on Order of the Silver Hand. Terenas always has some knots in his heart. He has already booked the knights and will only be loyal to the surname Menethil from now on.
Although there were some knots in my heart, I couldn't let it show on the outside. Terenas greeted Tirion·Fordring cordially, which made Paladin feel grateful and frightened for a while, and then told the story about the Northeast again. Forest Trolls and Lordaeron might be about to have a conflict.
"Are we really going to go to war with Trolls?" Arthas, as a prince and already recognized heir to the kingdom, was also fortunate to participate in the meeting. After hearing his father's words, he couldn't help but speak. He remembered Trolls who asked him to make multiple choice questions, and he couldn't help but be eager to try.
"Ahem!" Uther looked at the prince who jumped out immediately and couldn't help coughing slightly. Hearing his voice, Arthas quickly calmed down and changed his tone.
"Father, I'm asking, why do we have a conflict with Trolls?"
"My son, you should learn how to think like a king. This conflict was caused by our general, Garithos, who led his army to raid a stronghold of Forest Trolls, Forest Trolls had a great reaction to this." Terenas looked at his son who was a bit Recklessness but could correct his mistakes. He couldn't help but smile kindly and at the same time gave the real situation.
"Lordaeron is not afraid of any enemy, Silver Hand is not afraid of any challenge, the Light will shine on us." Uther responded in a dull voice.
"My dear Lightbringer, I believe that the Light can allow you to bring me victory, but that is not what we are going to discuss today. Do you know anything about Forest Trolls? How much do you think we will gain and how much will we lose if we go to war with them?" Terenas asked with a smile.
"This..." Uther was suddenly stuck. He couldn't answer any of Terenas's questions. If he could have said it elsewhere, Forest Trolls, weren't they just a bunch of beasts!
"Amani." Just when Uther was stuck, a voice came out, and Terenas looked around.
"Your Majesty, the country of Forest Trolls is called Amani. Their leader calls himself King of the Amani and is named Zul'ra Jin." Tirion·Fordring looked at the king who was staring at him and couldn't help but respectfully replied.
"Please continue, Fordring." Terenas looked at the respectful Tirion and leaned forward to listen.
"I met Zul'ra Jin. Just two years ago, Father Faol invited King of the Amani to the monastery as a guest. At that time, Prince Arthas was about to become a knight, so he invited the priest to attend his canonization ceremony." Tirion told the original reason.
"Well, I remember one thing. I once talked with the archbishop during the canonization ceremony of Arthas." Terenas's eyes moved slightly. He knew about this matter. In Dark Portal's fifteenth year, he had talked with Alonsus, but he did not quite agree with the archbishop's view. It was too idealistic.
"Tell me, your intuitive feeling about King of the Amani?"
"He is very strong and intelligent. From a purely military perspective, he is not an easy person to deal with. However, his character is not as cruel as other Trolls. On the contrary, he is very easy-going..." Tirion searched for his impressions of Zul'ra after a short period of contact with him.
