The war potential of the Eastern Kingdoms was far from bottomed out.
No, there is something wrong with this sentence. It should be said that the Alliance's war mobilization was too conservative.
Saving half of the population of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, from a long-term perspective, the advantages must outweigh the disadvantages.
The reason is very simple. If the undead natural disaster cannot be resisted and Kalos is closed to the country, how many generations will it take for the population of the Kingdom of Alterac to live and reproduce to fill the desolate homeland of the Seven Kingdoms.
Only those who have truly seen Heishencan will fall in love with Zi Gongxiang. Those guys who clamor that blood is black will not understand that blood can really be black.
This is the situation in the league now.
Pandaria's overfed expeditionary force, most of the borers chose to retire where they were and "enjoy their old age" in the Kingdom of Stormwind, while the few who were still useful were transferred back to Alterac to serve as great soldiers.
Don't get me wrong, young master soldier is a curse, but old master soldier...it's a mixed blessing.
After taking the crown of Alterac from the Barov family, they have been on the road of militarism until now.
Terenas has been resorting to economic sanctions and public isolation since the day the news of Carlos's disappearance in Draenor came back. The life of the people at the bottom of Alterac has not changed from Aiden to Carlos. Oops.
Therefore, the farmers and herdsmen of Alterac had no real understanding of the Barov family's plight before the undead disaster broke out, and they could only get by.
But the middle and upper classes in Alterac are different. There have been rounds of purges and purges. The lurkers from back then have been lurking until now, and they can no longer look back. After twenty years of militarism and twenty years of hard work, it is not easy. We encountered the outbreak of the undead natural disaster and finally managed to get His Majesty Carlos Barov back. We are the winners!
Your Majesty, lead your brothers to fight again, Your Majesty! ! !
Pandaria's benefits were taken away by the guys in Lordaeron and Stormwind City.
The benefits of the Northern Expedition were taken away by the guys in Lordaeron and Stormwind City.
In this western expedition to Kalimdor, it’s time to play with the brothers.
The old Alterac man has no shame.
Does Carlos Barov not know the nature of his military leader?
It is very clear, so the tens of thousands of elites in Alterac have always been used as a stabilizing needle to suppress the situation. They have not moved in the Hillsbrad Hills area, just to prevent problems with the city of Lordaeron in the north. By the way, they suppressed the "Zionist" uprising in Lordaeron.
Garithos and Uther had expressed their vague dissatisfaction with Carlos's behavior of protecting his calf on the issue of soldiers. However, the Alterac people were indeed the undoubted and absolute main force in the early days of the Undead Scourge. Regardless of facts or emotions, the deduction Without the hat, it would be very uncomfortable.
As a result, the thankless Delaney rescue operation made the Southern Expedition completely fattened.
It's okay, it's just a technical adjustment. Didn't we withdraw from Pandaria? People will die in war, and victory is achieved by staying alive.
Then, the Northern Expedition was victorious again.
The Alliance Congress, which was worried about the economic crisis caused by inflation caused by overcapacity, actually came up with the cunning operation of repaying all arrears of war pensions in one go.
Exploded.
The Eastern Kingdom is in trouble.
Don't expect the common people in the feudal era to have much cultural literacy, don't expect the people at the bottom to understand that the old men gave out money to use Northrend's land as a value anchor to hedge against the risk of the alliance's gold coins being over-issued. Anyway, everyone understands the truth. The regular army who gets double pay from the alliance is the real master!
I'm afraid everyone has forgotten here. Let me mention it again. The dual pay system was a thing Carlos created in the late stages of the Undead Catastrophe in order to unify the armies of various alliances.
Theoretically, the Alliance has no army. The army belongs to the kings and lords. Carlos is too lazy to touch this sensitive muscle, and he has to solve the problem of logistics and supplies that has become a cesspit, so he directly holds a conference to formulate such a system.
To put it bluntly, those who are registered with the alliance and have regular army establishments can get a pay from their own masters and a pay from the alliance.
In theory, only the soldiers of Alterac can receive the double pay, because Carlos is both the general marshal of the alliance and the king of the Oaklandites.
Carlos's purpose in doing this is essentially to spend money to buy comfort. I spend money to support your soldiers, so don't be disgusted with me.
Well, the Alliance is great, His Majesty Carlos is great, and who doesn’t love free money?
If you accept the refugees from Lordaeron, you will naturally have to accept the traditional dross of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
Carlos really didn't think much about it at first, let alone think it over carefully. Fighting on the corpse of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, the military salary was only a few dollars, which was really affordable.
However, the Undead Scourge achieved a staged victory, and the Zul'Gurub Troll War and the Pandaria Intervention War in the south occurred one after another. After the two wars, the Northern Expedition began again after less than half a year.
As the main source of dissemination of Alliance gold coins, there is no one in the Alliance's regular army who survives without any extravagant wealth.
The lords who thought they had saved military pay by relying on their personal dependence were dumbfounded. They failed to keep up with the version changes in the Eastern Kingdom and were roasted on the fire.
Don't get me wrong, it's not Carlos who set them up. Carlos is too busy disarmament, so there's no time to "recruit" them.
It was built up by the "advanced" militaristic system of the Alterac people.
Having been playing for more than 20 years, Alterac's military-first politics has long formed an institutional guarantee, and people from the lower classes can really get ahead by serving as soldiers.
In order to win the undead natural disaster, Carlos didn't care about spending money, he just asked those cheaters not to cause trouble for him. Therefore, in addition to the more than 500,000 combat troops at the peak, there are more than 300,000 who can theoretically get double pay." Establishing militia."
You wouldn't dare go to the front line and fight with skeleton ghouls. There is still no problem in protecting your home and country.
No one expected these militiamen to do anything. They were just arming civilians, and they were still spending money to eliminate disasters.
However, since the era of the Arathor Empire, human society has never experienced the dimensionality reduction impact of magic and industrialization unless we go back thousands of years.
In just four years, there was overcapacity and the feudal era...
The Alterac Legion, which enjoys super-national treatment, is suffering from red eyes.
What I thought before was that His Majesty loves us, so it would be fine if the people of Lordaeron went to fight or something like that. If there is anything good to go overseas, it would be better to go home.
Nowadays, the soldiers who have returned from Pandaria have been screened, and they can be transformed, and there are also professional soldiers who can be rescued. Many of them go to Alterac without hesitation to buy houses and land. The size does not matter, whether it is in the city or in the countryside. , mainly to be a written Alteracian.
With Pandaria's old soldiers asking for directions, and the Northern Expedition returning with the same routine, the noble lords in Alterac have begun to act like a monster, hoping that the Grand Duke will change the law, relax the screening criteria for Alterac's birthplace, and include the cemetery. Count it in.
There is no way, Alterac is so big, and strategic resources such as mountains, forests and pastures cannot be sold. Land deeds have already been acquired by fleeing gentlemen during the natural disaster war. How can the idle land of the private sector withstand this? Waves of harvest came one after another. Seeing that there was no market for it, the gentlemen of Alterac were already preparing to build a cemetery and sell grave bags.
Farce?
There are really high elves who want to buy it!
Even the settlement that Carlos allocated to the upper elf immigrants was targeted by financial giants.
Because at the closed-door meeting of the Alliance's high-level military officials, the representatives got into a fight. Alterac's meritorious generals openly shouted that they would not allow the Alterac people to participate in the Western Expedition.
No matter how good the treatment of Alterac soldiers is, can it be better than making money from war?
The Northern Expeditionary Army returned home in batches, and the capital of southern Pandaria continued to move northward. The lady once again became the deputy director of the withdrawal office, and Quel'Thalas and Stormwind City were boiling.
The giants of the military-industrial complex are also boiling.
They regarded Carlos's concession as a huge victory.
Since the beginning of the Undead Scourge, the Alliance has been fighting and winning. As long as the Alliance's military orders continue, the value of the Alliance's gold coins is always guaranteed.
To these people, the Western Expedition, or the Kaldorei military aid plan, was just another carnival.
Although Carlos is very clear that if this game continues, a cold war with the tribe across the sea will become an inevitable outcome, but now there is only one C'Thun left. If we don't fight, we can't control any sequelae. Fight first with chicken blood. Let’s talk later.
Therefore, Carlos drew a line between taking care of Alterac's domestic sentiment and taking care of the alliance's profit distribution.
The first legion to set off must be the Alliance regular army that earns double pay, or the Alterac people.
Nowadays, the income from farming is not high, and working in a factory is too tiring. Even if serving as a soldier carries the risk of sudden death, the casualty rate of the Northern Expedition is as high as 42%, and money and silk cannot attract people's hearts.
In the era of the Barov Union, which was extremely rich in materials, rural innocence was fading and consumerism gradually became prevalent.
The 500,000 troops during the Natural Disaster War were reorganized, retired, and those who participated in the two civil and southern wars and were too full to fight. If these are removed, the troops that Carlos can use are actually only about 100,000.
After all, Alliance soldiers are also living people, not cold numbers. They will collapse if they fight continuously, and they will become lazy if they get enough benefits.
So Carlos's idea was to use material resources to make up for manpower, and bring the Gilneans to play with the new plutocrats in Stormwind City.
After all, it is a cross-sea battle, or a battle across the endless sea, and the difficulty of logistical supply is far beyond the few steps from Lordaeron to Northrend.
Improving the quality of your army is far more important than expanding its quantity.
However, the impact of the industrialization of magic and the creation of alliance gold coins on Azeroth was far more exaggerated than Carlos expected when he opened the cage door.
The Pandaren said that they would provide cash on delivery logistics supplies and transportation to Kalimdor for the Alliance. The black-hearted black-skinned elves of the Broken Islands were also willing to continue to make war profits. The most outrageous thing was that a goblin broker said that the Alliance should not stick to the maelstrom route and Regarding the southern route, the four major goblin plutocrats are willing to mediate diplomatically for the respected Grand Marshal of the Alliance, forcing the tribe to open the northern seas, so that Lordaeron can pass through the dangerous winter channel in the northern seas of the Maelstrom with favorable winds but against ocean currents.
It was very confusing. Carlos felt a sense of absurdity that it was unbearable for heaven to not conquer the West. It was a kind of decreed feeling that heaven and earth are all working together.
The transportation capacity is insufficient, so I have my buddies to help.
The troops were insufficient, so everyone enthusiastically joined the army.
Just like he was afraid that Carlos wouldn't be able to defeat C'Thun.
Why are we talking about double pay and the issue of Alterac people?
Because the alliance members in the Lordaeron region are forcing Carlos, Your Majesty, why are there more than 100,000 people fighting? What is the identity and face of our alliance? Either we don't fight, or if we want to fight, we will bring in another 500,000 people!
The problem of people and land in Lordaeron is not serious yet, and the land reclamation ability in the feudal era cannot be boasted. The real problem is that the Eastern Kingdom, which was financialized in advance, has been tightly controlled by the monster of the Alliance, which excludes labor in mechanical production. Due to objective factors, the more than 300,000 retired "militiamen" asked the Alliance to take them to play, the unemployed young people in Stormwind City asked the Alliance to take them to play, and the Glory Orcs of the Atonement Expedition asked the Alliance to allow them to continue to atone for their sins.
Yes, the Atonement Expedition is actually over. The orcs are unwilling to come back and are already suspected of being self-respecting bandits. The main thing is the expedition. As for atonement or something, it doesn't matter.
Even the trolls were making a fuss, demanding that Carlos either give the trolls of the Hinterlands Alterac residence, or allow the trolls of the Alliance to exercise their citizenship rights and join the army.
mdGota Jin has recruited many spiritual alliance members from other troll clans, and he is actually willing to go against Carlos's wishes to make a fortune from this.
The most abstract one is the high elves. They have clearly established a firm foothold in the alliance system. Isn't Silvermoon Heavy Industries' dividend not enough to rebuild Quel'Thalas? Why are they starting to play the trick of attacking with an entire army?
Carlos didn't understand what went wrong and why the entire Eastern Kingdom was so excited about the Western Expedition. This was completely unreasonable.
Yes, this is unreasonable. Thrall doesn't understand why Gromsh Hellscream is so angry that he unexpectedly stood up for himself at the meeting of tribal chiefs.
In today's tribe, Gromsh is the only one who has the ability to challenge Thrall's status.
The Iron King drove the orcs from Draenor to Azeroth, which caused Gromsh's status to skyrocket.
Although Thrall brought everyone across the sea and gained the support of the detention center faction, Gromsh was also the great hero who resisted the ogres in the Draenor orc songs.
In terms of identity, status, and achievements, Grom is not inferior to Thrall. It is just because Thrall had a large number of people and the Warsong clan was beaten to disgrace by the night elves in Ashenvale, so the chief of the tribe should be Thrall.
And Gromsh himself recognized this and had no intention of challenging Thrall's status.
But Pandaria walked around, Gromsh's Warsong clan became famous, his own thoughts were no longer important, and Thrall's birth was trivialized by the orcs of Draenor.
The Frostwolf Clan flees without a fight, the Warsong Clan fights to the death, the Blackstone Clan is a man, and the Dead Eye Clan works hard and achieves great results.
The Alliance has hills, and the Horde has more hills.
It has only been a few years since the Second Orc War, from the Orc Horde to the Orc Horde. Many people have personally experienced what happened back then, even the story itself. Who can be fooled by political flattery.
It was precisely because he was afraid that the orcs in the tribe would split, that Gromsh accepted Thrall's appointment and went to Pandaria without hesitation.
However, the tribe belongs to the orcs, not just the orcs. Thrall's tribalism is really good, so the other joined races recognize you, the great chief Thrall, as your tribe, not the orcs of your tribe.
After returning from Pandaria, Gromsh became addicted to fishing. He drank wine and swung his fishing rod every day. When Lord Thrall and other tribes' direct line troops went on the Northern Expedition, he voluntarily withdrew from the political circle of Orgrimmar. He had already shown himself to Thrall. the meaning of.
It's a pity that Gromsh is not in Orgrimmar. Orgrimmar does have his legend. Seeing the orcs making trouble in the mountains, other participating races are fanning the flames intentionally or unintentionally.
Fight, fight, we want to see rivers of blood flow.
Because of the Northern Expedition, Sal's back was straightened up.
Because the Alliance's Northern Expedition was a forced victory and the strategic target Alsace ran away, the Horde's Northern Expedition was a complete victory, and the culprit Ner'zhul is probably really dead.
Therefore, Thrall only needs to wait for the Northern Expedition to return, and he will have plenty of means to deal with the unrest within the tribe.
Thrall can wait, the Horde can wait, but the problem is that the night elves cannot wait.
As the tribe's leading politician and shaman, Thrall used the power of the elemental spirits to foresee the Qiraji and the terrifying shadow behind them.
The Alliance has publicly stated that it will take half a year to prepare before sending reinforcements. Thrall's prophetic ability foresees one thing for sure. The night elves cannot hold on for that long without external intervention, and the Horde cannot stop the Qiraji. The offensive was overwhelming.
Therefore, even if the Northern Expeditionary Army has not completely withdrawn, the tribe should immediately send troops to reinforce Silithus.
Those who beg their neighbors will be punished.
Unfortunately, the opinions within the tribe are very mixed. The mainstream idea is to just sell arms to the night elves and continue to spread the blood of the night elves. Why did everyone suffer so many beatings from the night elves in the first place?
When Sal saw that he had a barbeque and had a beer every night, he had gained weight and had not done all the thinking work, his head was buzzing and hurting.
It's not that Brother Thrall is worthless, but that the night elves are too hated by the local races in Kalimdor, and the work of a united front is too difficult.
At the critical moment, it was Gromsh who walked into the Hall of Glory wearing a straw hat and stood up for Thrall.
"What a bunch of idiots, this discussion is nonsense. There is news from Pandaria, and the pandaren side with the night elves."
There are really not many tribal leaders who can play international politics. Thrall was stunned and it took him a while to react.
"The pandaren have already taken sides?"
Thrall confirmed the reliability of the news to Gromsh, but Gromsh ignored him at all and pointed directly at the noses of other tribe members present and continued to curse.
"This is not a question of reinforcing the night elves or not, but a question of ensuring that after the alliance comes, the night elves must stand with our tribe! Understand, either alliance with the Qiraji, or immediately with the night elves The elves stand together, of course, you can also choose to fight to the death with the alliance immediately, they are a bunch of idiots."
After scolding him with an expression like "How can we do well in the tribe together with you guys," Gromsh turned and left. He remembered that he had forgotten his Arcanine fishing rod by the river.
