For Thrall, this was a rather risky decision, but Orgrim agreed.
However, there is a price.
"But we can't make this trip in vain, Sal."
Orgrim looked at the map and pointed at Andorhal.
"We need a lot of food, or rather waste the lives of some soldiers, and there is intelligence that the humans are planning to send some orcs from the several orc sanctuaries we have not yet attacked to Durnholde for centralized management, and to increase the number of orcs.
The defenders there.”
Orgrim's meaning is obvious. He supports everything Thrall wants to do, but it must be beneficial. Talking to humans is a taboo for orcs. He is not opposed to it, and is even willing to do it.
Endorse Thrall's action and ensure his safety.
But there is only one premise.
That means there is a gain.
Whether it is gaining military benefits, or gaining benefits in food and money, no matter what Thrall wants to do, he must consider more for his own race.
Thrall didn't know Orgrim's thoughts. He just thought that this was the price of talking to Li Ke, and based on Li Ke's previous performance, he was not opposed to doing so.
Because he must have an army to help him see Li Ke, otherwise, he feels that he may not be able to come back.
Defense is always more difficult than offense. Last time Li Ke used the Holy Light to protect so many people. If he went alone, he would probably be killed by Li Ke using the Holy Light.
So he must have the power to ensure his return.
This is not selfishness, but a normal pursuit of good fortune and avoidance of harm, and he gradually understands his own value and the orc soldiers he can save.
Although he is still willing to sacrifice his life for every compatriot, he already has certain qualities of a leader without even knowing it.
Ruthless, and selfish.
Orgrim is very satisfied with Thrall's changes, this is what he wants.
A selfless leader is certainly wise, convincing, and willing to follow him until death, but as a leader, if he can only rush to the front and rely only on his own sacrifice and efforts, then there is no doubt that his race
will perish.
It's not that the orcs cannot have selfless leaders. In fact, Thrall is such a leader. He will not use the power of the tribe for his own selfish desires. But now the orcs need a leader who is more cunning, more life-saving, and a leader who knows how to make sacrifices!
Because only such an orc leader can surpass him and all the war chiefs.
"Then there is only one way."
Thrall looked at the map and looked at the changes in the human garrison that the scouts had investigated.
Traitors are not just among the orcs. In fact, the relationship between the humans and the orcs here is pretty good. After all, it was the nobles and kings here who joined forces with them, so they were able to easily defeat Lordaeron.
hinterland, and even almost pushed into Lordaeron.
Even now, there are still many humans doing transactions with them. With the help of these people, their loot and other things can be replenished.
And when necessary...
"We can unite the bandits, Orgrim."
Thrall's eyes shone with wisdom.
Andorhal is an important town and the hometown of the paladin Uther. The defenders here are still very elite. He immediately thought of the bandits that he and Orgrim wanted to attack and plunder before, and they didn't have enough food.
Well, if they unite, they can not only capture Andorhal, but also attack several orc sanctuaries.
If he remembered correctly, those people had considerable influence in Andorhal and could cooperate internally and externally to reduce casualties.
And when that time comes, humans will definitely not be anxious to find trouble with them, but will be anxious to find these traitors so that they can calmly do their own thing.
After all, no matter where they are, traitors are the most hated.
"Then how do you plan to convince them? Most of today's bandits were opposed to forming an alliance with us, and after forming an alliance with us, they did not gain much."
Orgrim chuckled lightly. Although the bandits here did not want to provoke orcs like them, it was even more impossible to have a good attitude towards the orcs.
Many of them were opposed to forming an alliance with the orcs. It was only because the king at that time insisted on having his own way that they had to obey. Even now, many bandits are still determined to fight against the orcs, but they don't have much power, and they usually suffer casualties themselves.
In the brain circuit of the orcs, such people cannot be united because they suffered because of the orcs.
But Thrall didn't think so. He pointed his finger on the map, silently thinking about the knowledge and information he had learned from Blackmoore, as well as the gossip he had heard from some of the guards and arena spectators.
Those people talked about the past rulers here, especially the relationship between the nobles who lost their territories, and then combined it with the current situation.
"They did not form an alliance with us at the beginning, but they were punished for forming an alliance with us. It is impossible for them not to have resentment in their hearts. So no matter what, they are now shouldering the responsibility of 'alliance with the orcs', so no matter whether they are with us or not
formed an alliance, and they were both punished."
Sal chuckled lightly.
"Human beings are like this. When they are wronged and punished, they will be resentful, and in their resentment, they will wonder why they didn't do the wrong thing. After all, they were punished whether they did it or not. So if there are enough benefits and threats
, they will not be very firm, and..."
Thrall pointed his finger at Andorhal.
"Most of the residents of Andorhal are people who have been trampled under their feet. If a person rashly falls from a high position to a person he once looked down upon, he will have unparalleled jealousy and a desire for destruction."
Thrall now is more like a human than an orc. Orgrim truly felt this way, and couldn't help but feel grateful to Blackmoore who trained Thrall.
Although this does not prevent him from smashing his head with a hammer after meeting him, he is really grateful to him for teaching Thrall to be a wise human being.
After all, Thrall may be a human in thought, but his blood and identity are not.
but……
Orgrim looked at Thrall who was talking eloquently, and he felt a little guilty in his heart. Because he thought of the human girl Taresha that Thrall often mentioned, and he and he liked each other.
Sorry, Sal.
Your lover cannot be saved.
There was nothing he could do, but there was still no chance of Talesa being rescued.
But Thrall didn't know about Orgrim's psychological activities. He still talked eloquently, becoming more and more excited as he talked, and even his eyes glowed red.
"...So, as long as Grom and I go to them with a batch of food, they will definitely agree to send troops with us. Orgrim, the success rate of this plan is really high."
Orgrim nodded. Thrall's plan was very good. He couldn't even find any fault with it, so he patted Thrall on the shoulder.
"Go ahead and do it, but remember, the sooner the better."
