Compared with the disasters suffered by other people in Lordaeron, the tragedy in Darrowshire is nothing special.
Poor people must be hateful, ignorant, narrow-minded, and greedy.
If the residents of Daron County retreat to the north of the Cowling intersection as soon as possible, their life safety will be guaranteed in the short term.
At least the spy came to report that Baron Rivendell had not yet fallen to the Scourge.
As a military commander elected by the Stratholme Town Council, Baron Rivendell was baptized by the Holy Light, and the priests found no traces of shadow power corruption on his body.
The Kingdom of Alterac still exists, and the Alliance has not been shattered by the destruction of Lordaeron. With reinforcements from outside, Stratholme has no reason to surrender unconditionally to the enemy of life.
At least the strategy of concentrating on guarding the Kaolin intersection effectively curbed the rampage of the natural disaster's minions.
Carlos is unable to break through Andorhal, the number of undead Scourge is too huge. The Lich King's 200,000 minions are piled outside Andorhal, which itself wants to block the possibility of Alterac's military.
But this does not mean that Anhador's offensive and defensive battle was meaningless.
On the contrary, this battle is of great significance. It was precisely because the Lich King's attempt to block Carlos in the Alterac Plateau was cut off that the Scourge had to use a large number of troops to block the outskirts of Andorhal.
Lordaeron City, as the largest troop base for the Undead Scourge, has provided the Scourge with more than 400,000 raw materials for undead soldiers, and it is roughly estimated that it can provide another 400,000.
So of the current 700,000 undead natural disasters, at least 300,000 are transformed from victims in other areas.
Simply draw a map and pile up chess pieces and you will understand. If Carlos did not fight this Andorhal offensive and defensive battle, then the Undead Scourge would only need a small number of troops to cut off the connection between Keldaron and Alterac City. This means that Alsace can just go all the way north, instead of having to wait for Lordaeron's troops to be transported to the Stratholme area while still building skeleton soldiers and ghouls on the spot.
Because the undead natural disaster does not sleep, but it does not transfer instantly, and the skeleton soldiers and ghouls also need to move forward step by step.
Blocking Andorhal drained away the Scourge of the Undead around Hearthglen, giving the people of Stratholme more time to breathe and prepare for war.
Otherwise, why would the Scourge Legion only use three thousand troops to sweep away Dalong County.
Who does this look down on?
At the same time, with reinforcements from Stromgarde moving north and Garithos recruiting troops for the refugees from Lordaeron in Hillsbrad, the Scourge's western group is also facing increasing pressure.
Again, without absolute suppression in numbers, the lack of individual combat effectiveness of the natural disaster minions would be a serious problem.
In the northern part of Hillsbrad Foothills, the Scourge is the resistance.
The members of the Silver Dawn who were disbanded when the massacre occurred in Lordaeron gradually reconnected with Carlos. Veterans with rich experience in dealing with the undead taught the newly formed legion the secrets of combat.
In particular, the news that Uther's expeditionary force finally collected enough ships to prepare for a large-scale return to Lordaeron greatly boosted the morale of the remaining people of Lordaeron.
If reason hadn't overwhelmed emotion, Carlos would have really wanted to transfer his cavalry group directly back from Hillsbrad.
Is it all worth it?
The city of Lordaeron was destroyed, the royal family was martyred, and the Kingdom of Lordaeron was considered dead.
When faced with a natural disaster, it is natural to unite all forces that can be united.
However, as the disaster occurred, the attitude of the careerists who refused to be lonely was disgusting.
Taking advantage of the conflict between refugees and locals, some guys spread inflammatory remarks. Don't make too many slogans such as "As long as the last people of Lordaeron do not fall, the Kingdom of Lordaeron will last forever."
These people daydream that whoever counterattacks Lordaeron can also become king, causing trouble in Hillsbrad.
Garithos didn't want to know if there was any fuel from the Cursed Sect behind this, nor did he want to know.
He only understands that anyone who hinders the alliance is an enemy.
This is one of the reasons why Carlos values Garithos.
identity.
The identity of the garrison officer Garithus Brier is too important.
He could raise the butcher's knife against the impassioned demagogues, but Carlos could not.
He could issue recruitment orders to the restless refugees and still receive gratitude and trust, but Carlos could not.
This is probably the price of power. It preserves the strength of the alliance to the greatest extent and also leaves behind the alliance's stubborn diseases.
But Carlos doesn't care, I want to save you, whether you care or not.
In such an era, huge political changes must be marked by meetings of senior leaders and the signing of contracts.
When representatives from Stormwind City and Ironforge arrive, and Quel'Thalas is brought in to serve as the backdrop, the new alliance will inevitably become the one that Carlos likes.
Some opponents are just stupid and can't see the reality clearly.
Other guys are bad, deliberately playing devil's advocate and raising their own worth, just to find a stable and comfortable position in the future.
After thinking about these things, Carlos gave up the restlessness and wavering in his heart.
Because of his strange feelings for Darrow County, he sent troops regardless of it. Could it be that the lives of the people of Darrow County were important, but the lives of Alterac soldiers were not?
We must endure, we must wait, and we must accumulate strength.
He will keep his promise and send troops northward within two months, but before that, the residents of Stratholme must save themselves.
God will save those who save themselves.
When the alliance was in chaos, Tastin Gou's appearance was truly unexpected.
The trolls in the Hinterlands would have burned incense if they had not rebelled against Carlos. Gota Jin actually brought people to reinforce him, which proved that he was indeed stronger than the Broken Tooth guy.
There are not many people, just over two thousand trolls.
Carlos understood this. He ate, slept and fought trolls. The Hinterlands had been wiped out over and over again. The civil war of the Badmoss clan the year before last had really damaged their vitality. Goota Jin could bring people here and it had been proven. Carlos was right.
It may be more symbolic than practical.
But Carlos thought about it and suddenly felt that he could do something.
The mountains between Darrowshire and Caer Darrow are insurmountable natural dangers for humans, but for trolls, they are only rugged.
No, not just trolls, but orcs too!
There are still tens of thousands of orcs in the custody area in the Alterac Mountains. It should be feasible to mobilize some more orcs.
"Gou Tajin, I need you to perform a task."
Carlos was ready to do what he said.
“Trolls listen to your words.”
Gouta Jin happily accepted the order.
At this time, three days had passed since Carlos handed the reply letter to the messenger.
