Soon, Zul'ra's order was sent out. Cook of Zul'Mashar had been Zul'ra's adjutant for a long time, and even asked Lostro learned from this. After suppressing the complaints of the soldiers, he quickly organized a retreat. Before the final evacuation, he set up the fortress as a trap, lured Lordaeron's two thousand forwards in, and then set fire to the entire fortress.

Not to mention the two thousand Lordaeron soldiers who were burned into roasted pigs, the news quickly reached the ears of Lordaeron City and Terenas. The king only felt a headache. He didn't care that two thousand people died. Sitting in his position, the war casualties were just numbers in his eyes, but the retreat of Amani was the real pain.

Terenas spent less than half a year integrating the power of Lordaeron, and was ready to fight Amani to the death, and then diverted the internal pressure. However, he did not expect that the punch he threw out with all his strength actually missed, and those Forest Trolls did not take the punch at all.

Not only was his fist empty, but he also used too much force and broke his waist. Now he is in a state of being unable to advance or retreat. Amani outside calmly avoids the sharp edge and may counterattack at any time. However, in the country, not only are Orcs rioting, but there are also countless undercurrents.

After thinking again and again, Terenas gritted his teeth and asked Lordaeron to hold back the pain, straighten his waist, and chose to stop the lost army in the vanguard and not allow them to go further north of the Thalas Mountains Jin, he remembered that when Alliance counterattacked Horde, the coalition forces with superiority failed to successfully enter Zul'Aman. Now what can Lordaeron alone do.

Let the army stop to the south of the Thalas Mountains and give up further actions. At the same time, Terenas used the power in its hands to package the attack on Zul'Mashar into a victory.

In fact, it was considered a victory. Amani retreated to the north of the Thalas Mountains and could no longer invade south in a short period of time. However, the effort and reward of this victory were not proportional, and it affected Lordaeron's overall strategy.

After Terenas stopped further action, he simply asked the coastal fleet to leave the eastern coast and return to Southsea Town to assemble, so as to avoid further irritating Amani. At the same time, he sent a letter to the Wildhammer dwarves of Eagle Nest Mountain and the Bronzebeard dwarves of Ironforge, requesting them to send troops to assist.

Dwarves is a race of Azeroth. It is not as ancient as Trolls, but it is still quite important. They have an ancient friendship with humans. They are generally divided into three branches, namely Bronzebeard Dwarves of Kingdom of Khaz Modan, Wildhammer Dwarves of Aerie Peak and Blackrock Mountain. Dark Iron Dwarves of Shadowforge City.

Before the Second World War, Orcs invaded from Dark Portal. They occupied Blackrock Mountain as a fortress, and then when they went north, they conveniently occupied all the territory outside the capital of Bronzebeard Dwarves. Immediately after attacking Alliance, he used the strategy of seizing the east and attacking the west. When he went north to attack Quel'Thalas, he also made a surprise attack on Aerie Peak, catching Wildhammer Dwarves by surprise.

Not to mention how much Orcs wanted to die, Dwarves did suffer a lot in the second war. Later, it was thanks to the Alliance that they went south to attack Horde, and the people in their territory were completely destroyed. Orcs was driven away, so they owed Alliance, especially Lordaeron, a huge favor, so after Terenas asked for help, they readily responded.

Ironforge supported a group of musketry equipment and sent manpower to help Lordaeron train their Dwarves immigrants into musketeers. On the other hand, Aerie Peak also sent a group of ferocious Gryphon Rider to obey orders.

Time slowly turned to September of the 18th year of Dark Portal. Terenas's plan to sell Orcs prisoners had completely collapsed, because one after another, news of the concentration camp being breached came from various places. This was no longer the careless eyes of the past, but a real Orcs riot.

Although Orcs is rioting, Lordaeron officials have not yet learned that Horde has been reorganized. In their eyes, those Orcs are just a group of stragglers who broke out of the concentration camp with violence, but this is not the case.

Just when Lordaeron was in chaos, Zul'ra welcomed a guest at Jintha'Alor, Duke Falconcrest, the lord of the old Kingdom of Alterac, he is also the current leader of Syndicate. The goal of coming to Jintha'Alor is naturally very simple, to seek help from Amani to restore the country.

Duke Foulcrest is a chestnut-haired middle-aged man dressed in aristocratic clothing. He wears silk embroidered with gold. Although his attitude is very humble, his tone is always a bit sarcastic. After a few polite words, he tactfully asks for help, promising that after Alterac returns to the country, not only can he be affiliated with Amani, but he will also send generous tributes every year.

Looking at Duke Foulcrest's promise, Zul'ra was a little bit reluctant. This is not a complete replica of "I Da Qing", but Syndicate is still of some use. Well, these guys are really capable of sneaking around, but they can't just throw them away.

Based on the idea of using waste, Zul'ra said a few words, and then he said a few words to Duke Foulcrest. It was not impossible to ask Amani to help. Several conditions needed to be met. The first one was that Syndicate had to establish his reputation among the civilians. An uprising requires a civilian base. It doesn't need to be too much, as long as the words can be heard by the civilians.

In response to Zul'ra's request, Duke Foulcrest immediately became energetic and boasted that as a descendant of the Alterac royal family, he had a strong civilian base. However, Zul'ra pointed out some of the dirty things Syndicate had done without mercy, and used bloody methods to engage in vicious competition in business. They even recruited unemployed gangsters.

Faced with Zul'ra's merciless accusation, Duke Foulcrest was speechless for a while, but he could only nod his head, saying that he would definitely get food, money, good deeds and reputation when he went back. His words made Zul'ra break into a cold sweat, what is this and what is it.

Seeing that Duke Foulcrest couldn't turn around, Zul'ra simply gave him a suggestion, to control a territory, and then absorb and protect the refugees. There is chaos outside now, and Lordaeron must have a lot of refugees. As long as we give those refugees a stable life and solve their food and clothing problems, the people's support will naturally come.

Faced with Zul'ra's direct suggestion, Duke Foulcrest was hesitant again. Syndicate couldn't afford to offend a large number of Orcs, and how could they control a territory? You must know that the nobles who owned the territory were wealthy and had Lordaeron official cover. Syndicate could not show up at all.

Trash, a real bunch of trash, Zul'ra looked at the confused Duke Foulcrest, swallowed back the words he wanted to scold, and then comforted them with gentle words, asking them to change their appearance, pretend to be businessmen to buy land, and then use work as relief, recruit refugees to build castles, and then find ways to get a noble title to cover them after they have stabilized the people's hearts and gained prestige.

The process is rough, and it will take some effort to implement, but it shouldn't be difficult for Syndicate and his group who were once nobles. But Duke Foulcrest is in trouble again. This procedure will cost a lot of money, and they can't show up at all because they will be recognized, and Assassin League is dealing with them.

Seeing Duke Foulcrest, who couldn't do this or that, Zul'ra immediately turned his face, and said "Go away", which made Fagarest feel trembling and angry, but he couldn't really walk away, so he could only apologize with a red face, and then promised that he would definitely meet Amani's requirements.

When Zul'ra looked at Duke Foulcrest, he was so angry that he wanted to laugh, but then he could only calm down. This group of trash can never be counted on, so he could only force him directly.
