What the Kingdom of Thresh has always lacked the most is various professional technical talents. Due to the situation of the kobolds, there is no education system at all and they cannot cultivate independently. Therefore, Prell had to rely on the abilities of his partners. Almost every one of his
Partners all wear multiple hats.
For example, Rexxar is now in charge of the military, including the selection and training of kobold soldiers, gnolls, and ogre soldiers in the Storm Mine, as well as commanding troops to fight.
For example, the panda man Lao Chen is now fully responsible for all daily affairs in Rolling Rock Canyon. Fortunately, there are many selected people of various races to assist him. Prell does not have to worry too much, and he is not afraid that Lao Chen will seize power because of this. He feels that this is completely
This is how you use the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman.
There are not many things that he doesn't have to worry about. The two mines in Rolling Rock Canyon and the Gale Mine are presided over by the kobold elders. He doesn't have to interfere too much. The kobolds who love mining have arranged everything themselves.
Be organized.
In addition, he didn't need to worry about that the operation of Stonehoof Valley was already stable and mature. After the Black Wolf Lake camp was occupied, Magatha immediately contacted Lie Sun Stone Residence and Apalaye Camp, and another three to four hundred tauren settled in.
The tauren blacksmiths who came, together with the bronzebeard dwarf blacksmiths, as well as the jackals and selected kobold apprentices, quickly started production.
The Dark Iron dwarves finally became familiar with the environment. After negotiating with Prell and others, Morgan Manbeard also joined the blacksmith team.
In addition to all the benefits and benefits included in the original employment contract signed between the Dark Iron Dwarves and the venture capital company remaining unchanged, Prell also guaranteed that as long as no foreign enemies invaded the Black Wolf Lake, he would not ask any Dark Iron Dwarf to take up arms.
Join the fight.
Now, the most lacking thing around him is people who can do paperwork. Almost all kobolds and jackals are illiterate, and the harpies are almost the same. As for the ogres, Prell has never considered them.
So Braylin Fire Fist reluctantly followed Prell, acting as a temporary secretary. At first, she thought that Prell was using public power for private purposes and wanted to get close to her deliberately. After all, the elven race is rich in
Not a beauty?
But she soon discovered that Prell had no such intention, which made the high elf sorceress feel a little disappointed. Prell also had a hard time in his heart. If he had traveled through time and become a human, he would even have lustful thoughts.
He took the name of Marcus, but he was a kobold, which made him somewhat powerless.
The other secretary who joined in was none other than the goblin Fizzix. If the Storm Mine was occupied, which of the goblin factions would be the happiest, it would be Fizzix. He didn’t like Gresu, and Preel had long ago
knew.
After all, Fezquez once tried to bribe him to work for him. Now that their identities have changed, Fezquez has almost no psychological obstacles in adapting to his new identity. After all, Prell has guaranteed his dividend rights in the Gale Mine.
, the original supervision rights in the mine were not abolished, and he was also promised a part of the dividend rights of the Black Wolf Lake camp, which was already worthy of the goblin working for him.
As for the seven or eight goblin managers, Prell didn't even spend any words. Fizquez took care of them all by himself. These goblins are ordinary employees of venture capital companies and do not have any dividend rights or occupy any shares.
They never care who their employer is as long as they are given adequate and satisfactory treatment and salary.
So Prell reluctantly set up a small secretariat to assist him in the tedious work of writing and data statistics.
And he himself, after discussing with Rexxar, Magatha and others, decided to take the initiative to attack Cliff Lake. Based on the continuous investigation of Gonzalo and other raptor druids, everyone inferred that Gresu had not yet conquered the Gale Valley.
What happened in the southeast was reported to the silt swamp, and was not reported to the venture capital company headquarters.
After all, after just one New Year, a mine, an arsenal and a gnoll group were lost. If Gresu reported it immediately, I'm afraid his career would come to an end and his life might not be saved.
Therefore, several senior officials concluded that Gresu's intention was to use the strength of the logging team to push back. The worst plan was to at least retake the Black Wolf Lake camp. Perhaps then, he would dare to report the news to make up for it.
A little loss of my own.
If this is the case, then Prell plans that he does not need to bring too many soldiers, he only needs to continue to harass, on the one hand, to train troops, and on the other hand, to buy more time for the rear, so that the occupied industries can return to normal.
.
Moreover, Prell thought further. The battle line advanced to the vicinity of Cliff Lake, which was equivalent to them taking the initiative in the war. When Gresu couldn't hold on anymore and asked for help from the Silt Swamp, then the Witchwing clan and the quilboars of Razor Ridge would
can launch harassment and attacks from the rear,
In short, Prell never planned to completely drive away the influence of the Venture Capital Company in the Barrens and the Stonetalon Mountains by relying solely on the Thresh Kingdom and the Tauren. He just wanted to bring together all the forces that could be united.
Jointly deal with venture capital firms.
Prell has never revealed one thing to anyone. According to his estimation, Thrall will lead the orc army and the Darkspear clan trolls to the east of the Raging River in the Barrens by the middle of this year, or at most around June.
shore.
From the perspective of a former World of Warcraft player, Prell is very willing to join the Horde. But now he represents the interests of the Thresh Kingdom and even a small part of the tauren race, so he must maintain a certain degree of neutrality after joining the Horde.
It is the most suitable for the future.
After the discussion, Magatha Grimtotem was responsible for all matters at the Black Wolf Lake camp. This leader of the tauren shaman group seemed particularly caring.
In fact, Magatha has always been supportive of Prell, and it has nothing to do with her attitude towards kobolds or other non-tauren races. As a qualified politician, Magatha has long wanted to deal with the venture capital companies that are stirring up trouble everywhere.
A fierce revenge.
But after occupying Black Wolf Lake, she is no longer limited to revenge. This industry is also of great significance to the tauren. The tauren city in the Mogore region that is being planned requires a lot of materials and funds. So Black
The Wolf Lake industry can provide a lot of support.
After everything was arranged, Prell and Rexxar led the army and set off. The number of soldiers he selected was not many, three hundred kobold musketeers, one hundred kobold hammer shield soldiers, and forty kobolds
Grenadiers, sixty gnoll archers, and ten ogre hoplites.
Snu stayed at the camp, Lestalen also stayed behind, and Belga led thirty shamans of various races and thirty mages of various races to follow.
Hayaheim led a hundred jackals and a hundred kobolds and was responsible for logistics and other work.
Prell's intention is obvious. He wants to build an army with kobolds as the main force, and an army centered on musketeers. Therefore, these 300 kobold musketeers, in addition to dozens of veterans who have been upgraded,
In addition, all of them are newly selected recruits from Guangfeng Mine.
As the scout captain, Gonzalo is responsible for leading the various tasks of the scattered Tauren Raptor Druids and Harpy Scouts, and promptly reports to Prell.
It takes about 5 days to travel from Black Wolf Lake to Cliff Lake. At the logging team base camp by Cliff Lake, Gresu had a dark face. He was always on the verge of breaking out. When he thought of the kobold Prell actually taking advantage of the New Year to attack,
He couldn't help but want to kill all the kobolds.
When he thought about his previous failure outside the gnoll camp, he felt extremely ashamed, so this angry and powerless frustration made him vent all his emotions on his subordinates' hired workers.
Today's logging team has assembled more than 600 people. In addition to the goblin management and employees, there are humans, jackals, and some Bronzebeard dwarves who have returned after the New Year.
These returning employees were a day or two later than Gresu. They disembarked from Tiragarde Castle by boat, and were then gathered together by the managers Gresu left there. Then they passed through the Razor Ridge and passed through the Silt Swamp together.
, came from the Ashen Valley, but were intercepted by Gresu.
In other words, Gresu has gathered together all the scattered employees in Cliff Lake. There are about less than 200 goblins, more than 200 humans, more than 100 gnolls, and dozens of Bronzebeards.
dwarf.
In addition, Gresu also received news that nearly a hundred goblins and more than a hundred human employees have been gathered in Tiragarde Castle, preparing to set off after the arrival of the next fleet.
Gresu had already sent people to urge him. He felt that this manpower might not be able to defeat Prell. His heart was bleeding when he thought that the entire gnoll group remaining by the Black Wolf Lake had rebelled.
He had moved a whole tribe, and more than a thousand gnolls came to the Gale Valley. Just when Gresu was worried about the lack of troops, another thing happened in Cliff Lake: a racial conflict.
The human employees of the logging team are mainly from the Kingdom of Stormwind, while the gnolls are all from the Riverpaw clan in Elwynn Forest.
After experiencing two orc invasion wars, the Kingdom of Stormwind City suffered heavy losses and its national strength dropped to what can be said to be its lowest point in history. So the Riverclaw Gnolls, who had been restless before, began to become active. After all, the Kingdom of Stormwind City could no longer afford it.
An army strong enough to suppress them.
Humans and Jackals naturally dislike each other. Gresu had also considered the conflict between the two races before, so he tried his best to avoid the two races mixing together during the daily operations of the logging team.
But now in order to deal with Prell, he had to gather all the scattered employees at the edge of the cliff lake, and the conflict between the two deeply conflicting races broke out in another new continent.
The cause of the conflict is very simple. Humans, who have always been deeply discriminatory against jackals, said that jackals are traitors and betrayed the venture capital company. The jackals who stayed behind in the logging team were also innocent. Even during the New Year, they were the only ones.
There is no race for company employees to take any leave.
They had no way of knowing what happened far away in Black Wolf Lake. Now being called a traitor by humans, the jackals were naturally very unhappy, so the two sides escalated from insulting each other to a fight, and then to a group fight.
Gresu had to come forward to appease him. Now he also disliked the gnolls, so his attitude was naturally biased towards the more dominant humans. As a result, the gnolls were even more dissatisfied, and several escape incidents occurred in succession.
As a last resort, Gresu had to disperse the gnolls and mix them with the goblins, while also improving some of their treatment.
But at this time, Prell had already led the army and was only about a day away from Cliff Lake. And with the blessing of luck, the scouts discovered and brought two groups of 8 Jackal escapees, and brought him
