Plans never change fast enough.
At the beginning of the plan, Carlos only hoped to use Andorhal to slow down the speed of the undead natural disaster moving eastward, so that he could concentrate his efforts on a large-scale annihilation war.
The idea was good, but reality told Carlos what a fucking surprise was.
The surprise is that the rate of proliferation of the Undead Scourge far exceeds everyone's expectations.
The surprise was that the reinforcements he was looking forward to fought a beautiful battle of annihilation in the northern part of the Hillsbrad Hills region, severely damaging the Scourge's westward advance.
The surprise is that Andorhar, which was originally a military buffer zone, has now become a strategic location that cannot be given away.
Surprisingly, the screenwriter of "Surprise Is Destiny" has been replaced by another person.
Putting Garithos' legion into battle effectively prevented the collapse of the front.
But this is only a tactical victory, and it is indeed a strategic defeat. This means that Carlos can no longer use the strength to carry out tactical maneuvers. This means that even if the Undead Scourge cannot capture Andorhal, it has gained a huge strategic advantage.
Because Carlos could no longer stop Arthas from marching eastward into Andorhal.
Those who can ride horses are not called cavalry.
His own cavalry is still moving around Hillsbrad. Garithos's cavalry regiment is almost the last cavalry in Lordaeron. Even if reinforcements arrive, relying on foot men to chase the sleepless undead army is still a serious problem. Brainstorming plan.
Unable to effectively create a strategic deterrent to the Scourge Legion, the pace is one step at a time, one step at a time.
On the contrary, as long as Arthas is not stupid and realizes that Carlos has thrown the cavalry regiment into the frontal battlefield of Andorhal, it is time to divide his troops.
So the question is, is Alsace mentally retarded?
This is a mystery.
Alsace's delay in showing up aroused Carlos's instinctive suspicion.
According to Carlos's understanding of Alsace, the little prince had been suppressed for so long by his old father-in-law Terenas and the annoying old Tyrell. It was just when his desire to perform was overwhelming that he never appeared on the frontal battlefield to challenge him. This brother-in-law.
Something is very wrong.
Terenas was a wise man, but not a good father.
The heavy weight of royal power made Terenas unable to take care of his son's education, so in Alsace's childhood memories, his father was always majestic and high-pressure.
What is easy to understand is that in the childhood exchanges between Terenas and Alsace, Alsace was always his own child.
As for who is someone else's child, sometimes it's Turalyon, sometimes it's Carlos, and most of the time it's Varian.
When the good days of childhood are over, Uriel, who is also a teacher and father, appears again.
Arthas is Uriel's honor and responsibility, his most important disciple and future king.
So Uriel didn't understand that what Alsace wanted was not justice and dedication, but recognition. What he longed for was a biased father's love.
Based on this judgment, Carlos believed that it was a huge abnormality that Alsace did not come to him to understand the "grievances".
But with a cheating tool like "past life memory", Carlos still didn't understand how much the magic of summoning Archimonde to Azeroth drove the mage crazy.
After all, in the game, just use the Book of Medivh to create a portal by crackling it.
But in this world without Medivh, even the Lich King Ner'zhul and the magic genius Kel'Thuzad are still overwhelmed by the excellent work samples of the legion bosses.
This is the real reason why the undead army on the frontal battlefield in Andorhal did not invest in spellcasters.
Silver Dawn's work over the past year has not been in vain, nor has Carlos's efforts over the past several decades been in vain.
No matter how the natural disasters wreak havoc, the Kingdom of Alterac is still there.
Before the spark of hope is extinguished, the madness of despair has its limits.
Without the Cult of the Damned to lure a large number of desperate human spellcasters to join the Scourge, the undead Scourge's magical power is far inferior to that of its colleagues in other timelines.
So much so that the Lich King had to directly order Arthas to cooperate with Kel'Thuzad to prioritize the placement of ziggurats in the occupied areas of Lordaeron.
Both Kil'jaeden and Archimonde possess the terrifying power to destroy stars by one man. The fear of Kil'jaeden has transcended the level of DNA and is engraved in Ner'zhul's soul.
Although he knew that Archimonde might not be trustworthy, the Lich King still wanted to believe that the Defiler would keep his promise.
After all, only Archimonde can stop Kil'jaeden from persecuting him.
Therefore, the Lich King ordered Arthas to arrange the ziggurat as his first priority.
It was this order that gave Carlos time to struggle and a chance to breathe.
Otherwise, it would be up to the frustrated militiamen and refugees in Andorhal to resist the frontal attack of the main force of the Undead Legion.
Daydreaming!
"how much longer?"
Arthas asked Kel'Thuzad in his mind.
"It's coming soon. The day is not far away from the arrival of the great being. I have already heard His voice. It is the Lord and God!"
Arthas had no resistance or impatience to Kel'Thuzad's godly whispers.
Arthas, enslaved by Frostmourne, has lost most of his humanity, but he is not without desires.
I want to fight Carlos, and I want to use Frostmourne to cut off the sword of the King of Men - Stromka, which I once wanted so much.
Arthas took the initiative to contact the Lich King.
"There is still a lack of preparation. I cannot personally conduct the ceremony. Kel'Thuzad must perform it on my behalf. This is the eternal life I promised you. Find a suitable carrier, resurrect it, and resurrect Kel'Thuzad!"
Because Kel'Thuzad resides in Arthas, the Lich King's instructions seem a bit chaotic.
But Alsace still understood what his master's mission was.
Find a suitable urn as a necessary item to resurrect Kel'Thuzad.
So is there any...
have!
Terenas, Alsace's biological father, is the perfect carrier.
Even though the last light in the depths of his soul was protected by great power, Alsace's sea of consciousness was still not calm.
"Then what are you waiting for? Return to the city of Lordaeron and burn my great father."
Beneath Arthas' cold words was a fanatical desire to fight, which blinded Kel'Thuzad.
"No need to be anxious, my prince, nothing can stop the undead natural disaster. Please be patient and wait for the fruits of victory to fall into your hands."
Arthas ignored Kel'Thuzad.
With the city of Lordaeron as the birthplace of the war, the army of bones and flesh is spreading continuously to the surrounding areas. Every time a land is conquered, the living and the dead will be used by the Lich King.
Every minute and every second, the power of the undead natural disasters continues to increase.
So Alsace has willful capital.
The 200,000 undead soldiers besieging Andorhal are not worth mentioning in the eyes of His Highness the Prince. They are consumables like recyclable garbage.
Therefore, Arthas rode on his beloved Invincible, left the Hearthglen area against the steady stream of undead that poured up the high slope, and insisted on returning to the city of Lordaeron.
"I knew that despicable guy Tirion Fordring couldn't be trusted! He wanted to escape with his army, that shameful traitor!"
On the high tower, the imprisoned current Lord of Hearthglen watched in despair as Tirion Fordring gathered his troops, thinking with the most malicious thoughts.
