Until Bolvar mounted the gryphon and began his speedy journey back to Stormwind City, he was still confused.
There is no more money (soldiers) to be squeezed out of Lordaeron.
On a public level, Terenas and hundreds of nobles, big and small, donated a thousand gold coins to the Kingdom of Stormwind. It seemed like a lot, but God just sent him to beggar.
These Chambervar left it to his deputies and ambassadors to recruit troops in Lordaeron. If quality was not a concern, it would be no problem to recruit an army of 5,000 men. As for the equipment, don't ask for it. Anyway, you can go to Stormwind City at most.
Used to guard the outer city wall, it's just a little better than a civilian.
Griffins are very fast and can fly at a constant speed of 60 kilometers per hour.
You must know that the average speed of ordinary horses is 20 kilometers per hour, and the maximum speed is about 60 kilometers per hour.
Griffins can also fly in a straight line regardless of terrain.
Of course, riding a gryphon is not a pleasant experience. As a large raptor, the back of a gryphon is so wide that it almost makes your legs split when you sit up, and it is also bumpy.
The only two advantages are speed and safety.
No raptor dares to offend a griffin, and the city of Lordaeron and Stormwind City are more than a thousand kilometers apart. If griffins are on the road, they can reach them within a day.
Bolvar enjoyed this treatment. Damn it. When he heard that these griffins were originally used by a certain Duke to transport food, he was confused for a long time.
You spend so much money just for food, can you believe it?
After finally arriving in Stormwind City, he met his lord, King Llane.
"Bovar, how did you come back riding a gryphon? His Majesty Menethil's?" Ryan is a handsome guy. Even though he is middle-aged, his charming masculinity still overflows.
With a head of curly black hair, matched with the right beard and angular facial lines, he can completely overwhelm all the young talents in China as soon as he appears on the stage.
He first hugged Bolvar warmly, and then looked at him impatiently, as if he wanted to dig out 100,000 reinforcements from Bolvar's heart.
Bolvar was embarrassed, but Ryan misunderstood on the spot and comforted Bolvar: "Bovar, don't be pressured. I didn't expect them to take action immediately. The enemies here are too magical."
"No, Your Majesty, don't get me wrong. Because the orc slave we sent accidentally ran away in the city of Lordaeron, the 30 orcs also attacked the palace. Although they did not cause serious losses, Menethil realized that the orcs were terrifying.
The king is furious, and now Lordaeron has begun a nationwide mobilization."
Ryan is an upright king, and Bolvar and MI7 did those dirty things without telling Ryan.
Ryan's face was stunned. He didn't think so much, and a happy expression suddenly appeared on his face: "Ah! This is the only good news I have heard in the past three months. Bolvar, thank you for your hard work."
King Llane said nothing about reinforcements.
In his opinion, Bolvar's ability to get Lordaeron to take action in advance is already the greatest success. As for reinforcements, forget it. No one knows the virtues of his vassals better than a feudal king.
The Dukes of the Kingdom of Stormwind have already made their calculations. After all, the country has been developing over the years and constantly opening up new territories. The countries on the northern continent have long since solidified their thinking and are content with the status quo because they have lost the possibility of expanding their territory.
Even so, the major lords of the Kingdom of Stormwind were still caught off guard. In several large territories to the east, almost all of them had just barely gathered their soldiers when the orcs arrived. As soon as they charged over, the troops collapsed and fell into a trap.
state of escape.
If it weren't for the fact that the wind direction in Elwynn Forest is mostly from west to east, and if a fire is set, it will burn towards the orcs, it is possible that the orcs would have killed them outside Stormwind City by now.
"Your Majesty, I actually persuaded the Duke of Stratholme in Lordaeron. No, to be precise, it was His Excellency the Duke who knew about the situation in the Kingdom of Stormwind early on and took the initiative to provide us with help." Bolvar told himself and McDonald
The matter was explained quickly and briefly.
"What do you mean? The Duke of Stratholme not only single-handedly contributed to Lordaeron's war preparations, but also planned to provide us with a main army of three thousand men."
"Yes! In a secret way." Bolvar lowered his voice and emphasized very solemnly.
Ryan suddenly wanted to laugh, how could there be any secret method. This was an army of three thousand people, no more than a standing army of a duchy. It could not be obtained casually.
Let's not forget what McDonald wanted to do by hiding such an army.
That equipment alone is impossible to hide.
Naked soldiers are cannon fodder on the battlefield. Lordaeron's standard armor is instantly recognizable.
At this time, a "dang-dang-dang" alarm bell suddenly sounded from the west of Stormwind City.
Stormwind City is located in the middle of the southern continent, facing the sea to the west, surrounded by mountains to the north and east, and controlling the entire Elwynn Forest to the south. Of course, at this point in time, Stormwind Port is still very small. In the past, it was responsible for daily business navigation and small businesses.
Fishing boat fishing.
"What happened?"
After a while, the messenger came to report: "Your Majesty, there is a large fleet."
"Whose? Orc's?"
"No! It must be our human ship, but...the other party is flying our flag and has a family emblem that we have never seen before." The messenger looked strange.
When sailing on the high seas, there is an emblem under the national flag, which represents which force it belongs to, whether it belongs to a private merchant ship or a certain noble.
A fabricated emblem of a noble family sounds like an insult to the stormman's intelligence.
Bolvar suddenly trembled: "Wait! Your Majesty! That's our reinforcements!"
He quickly bit his ear and revealed the contents of his py transaction with McDonald.
"The position of a duke in exchange for ten thousand elite soldiers?" Ryan delegated the power to Bolvar to negotiate. This was the first time he knew that this deal had actually been concluded.
Ryan's eyes widened in disbelief.
When a country like this is at the end of its rope, how can it afford to be picky?
Ryan waved his hand and said, "Let them dock. This is the return of our new continent development force from the Kingdom of Storm. However, the west city gate must be closed first."
Ryan does things very safely.
30 minutes later, the fleet slowly approached Storm Harbor.
Ryan stood at the top of the city, looking slightly nervously at the port, where Bolvar was waiting with a group of soldiers at the port.
The first ship that docked was too big, a typical Kul Tiran cargo ship.
It is 80 meters long and its wide hull can easily carry more cargo.
It was so brand new that you could smell the fresh paint coming from the bow even before it docked.
For a second, Bolvar wondered whether a large group of orcs would jump out of it and shout something like "Waaaaaagh" or "Lok that!".
Busy work on the ship is typical of Kul Tiran sailors.
When the deck was lowered, Bolvar was dumbfounded by the soldiers walking down the ship.
What kind of mercenary group is this? They are all ‘our own people’!
At first glance, he looks exactly like the guard standing at the door of Stormwind Fortress.
No! Even above that.
What the imperial guards wore was, at best, iron armor.
But what these guys wear is [excellent] quality high-end armor [King Suit]!
Generally speaking, knights are not qualified to wear armor of this quality.
Seeing Bolvar, who was messy in the sea breeze and even his hair was blown into a makeshift killer look, these mysterious outsiders were very proud.
"Stormwind City Guards cosplay is a great success!"
