When he connected with Jaina, Sarlayan was dealing with the aftermath of the war.
Although the Evil Branch Troll's army only has tens of thousands of people, even if we exclude those who died as a result of Hex's sacrifice and the civilians who unfortunately were affected by the war, the remaining Evil Branch Troll population still exceeds 10,000.
It is obviously impossible for the Quel'Thalas family to eat such a large number of prisoners.
Danas was still enthusiastically hunting down the remnants of the Witherwood Trolls, and he only sent one member of the Stromgarde Council to participate in the division of the spoils after the war.
The Kingdom of Stromgarde's message is very clear. Dead trolls are good trolls. They will not accept any form of troll capture and will only recycle corpses.
Considering the hatred between the Trollbane ancestors and the trolls, Sarlayan's tough attitude towards them is not too surprising.
The Wildhammer dwarves are willing to accept some troll captives as coolies, but the number of Wildhammer dwarves still living in Eagle's Nest Mountain has decreased a lot, and the share Falstad can take is also limited, just the captives of the Deadwood Trolls
It's enough for them.
Sarlayan is also troubled by this problem.
Excluding the losses during the war, what kind of international joke are you kidding if you want to escort as many as ten thousand prisoners with the remaining people in Quel'Thalas.
The Evil Tooth Troll expressed its willingness to accept some of the Evil Branch captives, but Sharlayan knew very well what the old boy Broken Tooth was planning. He simply wanted to eat the Evil Branch's population to quickly expand his tribe.
After finally wiping out the last two large clans of forest trolls, there is no way that Sarlayan can create a father for himself by raising tigers. Even if the Maltooth clan has a very upright attitude now, this does not matter at all.
Gotta talk.
Chief Broken Tooth actually knew in his heart that he would not be able to get much of the share... Besides, if there were too many evil branches to be accommodated, he would be worried that one day he would be usurped by someone.
The distribution of benefits after the war cannot avoid the process of bargaining. After that, Sarlayan will hand over more detailed work to the professional diplomats of Quel'Thalas to slowly argue with them.
Although Quel'Thalas' naval development has achieved initial results, it is still far from being able to compare with Kul Tiras, which has a profound foundation. The number of both battleships and logistics transport ships is seriously insufficient.
It is not cost-effective to commandeer merchant ships to transport prisoners by sea, so Quel'Thalas still has to keep these ships to carry out maritime trade.
In this case, the only way to escort the captives is by land, and the journey north will inevitably pass through the territories of Alterac and Lordaeron.
In order not to cause misunderstanding among the allies, Sharlayan and Stellagosa first sent Valeera back to Silvermoon City to report the news.
Let Kael'thas solve the political and diplomatic problems that arise.
Sarlayan handed over the aftermath of the Battle of the Hinterlands to Liadrin and Alleria, who would work with the Wildhammer dwarves to guard the restless troll captives.
When Sarlayan came to the Lord's Hall of Eagle's Nest Mountain to bid farewell to Falstad, Lord Wildhammer curled his lips unabashedly: "You are still so busy, I still want to have a good drink with you."
Sarlayan smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "Sorry, I will do it next time. There are still things waiting for me to deal with in Dalaran."
"Fine."
Falstad stepped up helplessly and patted Sarlayan on the shoulder: "Business matters...but you'd better deal with the prisoners of the Evil Branch Troll as soon as possible."
"There are so many thousands of people. It's not a joke if they cause trouble."
Sharlayan nodded solemnly: "I have informed His Majesty the Sun King that he needs to report to Lordaeron and Alterac first. Reinforcements should be sent to the Hinterlands to escort the prisoners soon."
"That's good."
Falstad smiled heartily: "Say hello to Luo Ning and Qin Reza for me. Next time we have a chance, we can get together and catch up on old times. I'll treat you."
"no problem."
…
Sarlayan, who came and went in such a hurry, didn't even have time to chat with Alleria, who was leading the Farstriders from afar. He simply said goodbye to her and opened the portal to Dalaran.
Just as Sharlayan and Stellagosa were about to step in, Merinthela, who had been busy reporting the situation to Wyrmrest Temple, rushed over.
"Salayan, Stellagosa! Please wait a moment!"
"Um"
The two of them turned back to look at the Green Dragon Princess in confusion.
"What's wrong? Could it be that Your Majesty Yin Sera has some instructions for us?"
"No, that's not the case."
Melinsela shook her head and said: "I will go to the Swamp of Sorrows to monitor the movements of the Atakah Temple, and at the same time urge the Kingdom of Stormwind to send troops as soon as possible to clear out the threats in their rear."
"After I complete the task at hand, will you welcome me to Quel'Thalas as a guest?"
The corners of Sarlayan's mouth twitched slightly: 'Uh'
[...so proactive]
[Otherwise, how old do you think Melinsela is, the leftover girl is anxious.]
[It’s rare to meet someone who is suitable in all aspects. If you don’t take the initiative, why would you want to wait until the little Sa iron tree blooms?]
【Um...that makes sense.】
Under Stella Gosa's half-smiling gaze, Sarlayan responded bravely.
"Of course, Quel'Thalas welcomes the visit of all friendly people. My family and I will wait for the visit of Her Royal Highness the Princess in Unicorn City."
"oh"
After all, she is an experienced veteran who has lived for more than 10,000 years. Melinsela recognized the business-like meaning in Sarlayan's words and smiled meaningfully.
"It's okay to welcome you in the name of Quel'Thalas. Then we'll see you later."
Watching Melinsela transform into a dragon and fly south, Sarlayan rubbed his brows helplessly: "...Stella, do you think I have some special ability to attract the opposite sex of dragons?"
"Haha" Stella Gosa smiled meaningfully: "What do you think, let's not mention your personal charm, Aoni's fanatical attitude not long ago is a typical example."
"hiss"
Sarlayan showed a headache expression: "I really don't want to add more people to my family..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Stellagosa smiled and shrugged: "In your own words, a woman chases a man, and there is a veil between them. Looking at Melinsera, it is obvious that she is right.
She has such a stubborn attitude... You are sure to be able to get rid of her entanglement."
"This is how dragons look for a partner. Even if you don't agree, she will stick with you for hundreds, even thousands of years."
"Considering our good relationship with Queen Yin Sera...can you really be cruel enough to refuse Melinsela, or the 'good intentions' of Yin Sera behind her?"
"Why……"
Sarlayan waved his hand impatiently and changed the topic: "Let's not talk about these troublesome things for now. It's not a problem that the portal is always open. Let's go and talk about it when we get to Dalaran."
…
Compared with the panic when the Kirin Tor Council was fighting fiercely a few months ago, as Modera was expelled from Dalaran due to failure in the political struggle, the atmosphere in this floating city was obviously much livelier.
Today's Kirin Tor Council is chaired by Ronin, who is young and powerful and advocates reform. Khadgar and Jaina, both of the Young Faction, stand with him, as does Aethas Sunreaver, who represents Quel'Thalas.
Be the yes man in the back.
Counting the Speaker's two-vote authority, when the Kirin Tor Council votes on various policies, Ronin can often easily get votes to support it, even if Ansrem and Kalai vote against it, it will be of no avail.
They have been vixens for thousands of years, and Ansrem and Kalai will certainly not do such things that offend others even though they know it is useless.
Recently, several reform proposals in Dalaran were unanimously approved. Luo Ning, who was gearing up, was finally able to boldly and gradually promote the modernization reform of Dalaran, which had an old system.
Through Jaina's information, Sharlayan learned the general contents of the three reform proposals recently passed by Dalaran.
The first is to legalize the evil energy research mentioned before, the second is to formally introduce penalties for racial discrimination, and the third is to invest more in education, striving to cultivate more talents for Dalaran in the next ten years.
Many reserve talents.
Once the restraints were released, Luo Ning's energy and spirit had obvious positive changes.
Today he looks full of energy, and no longer looks as depressed as when he was hampered by conservatives in every possible way.uuRead the book
Sarlayan took the initiative to give Luo Ning a hug with a smile on his face: "Old friend, let me first express my congratulations to you."
Ronin smiled and patted Sarlayan on the back: "Dalaran's reform path can not be on the right track without the strong support of Quel'Thalas and Kul Tiras. I will not forget it.
of."
"Tsk" Sarlayan said angrily after letting go of Ronin: "Who told you this? I mean your marriage!"
"Uh oh...you said this."
Luo Ning scratched his head in embarrassment: "It is true that the wedding is approaching, and you are quite well informed."
Sarlayan twitched his lips with a smile: "Don't pretend here, it was obviously you who took the initiative to reveal it to Jaina, but with your poor acting skills, you still want to imitate others in playing hard to get."
"Snapped!"
Sarlayan slapped Ronin hard on the shoulder, almost knocking him to the ground, and then he smiled happily.
"Don't worry, no matter how busy I am, I will definitely make time to attend your wedding."
