After receiving the news, Prell hurried to the Taurazu camp. He brought a small group of 10 kobold hammer shield soldiers, a small group of musketeers and a small group of grenadiers. Belga brought two shamans.
Priest, one kobold and one harpy.
Snu took Lestalen, a kobold mage and a harpy mage, following Prell from the Apalaye camp to the Taurajo camp.
The Kingdom of Thresh lacks a stable source of war horses. Some of the horses captured in Cliff Lake were used to transport supplies, and some were given to the gnolls. Prell planned to train a group of gnoll cavalry.
Therefore, Prell has always been able to walk on two legs when leading troops. He would like to train a cavalry team for the Kingdom of Thresh's garrison with kobolds as the main force, but at present, those suitable for kobold body types can be used.
Riding mounts are really hard to find.
Passing through the eastern edge of the Agamagog region, Prell noticed that in the western edge grassland of the backwater oasis, the once common Kokar centaurs had disappeared. Apparently, they had been attacked by the indigenous coalition forces.
He became extremely low-key.
At the Taurajo camp, when Prell arrived, Cairn Bloodhoof had already sent a message to Thunder Bluff, summoned an army from there, and came to escort the tribesmen who had migrated from Thousand Needles, and were already heading towards Thunder Bluff.
Set off.
So what remained outside the Taurajo camp were dozens of unique orc tents. Following Kane and Bloodhoof who came to greet him, he entered the camp. Prell silently observed and calculated all the way. He estimated that this
The number of orc soldiers who help the tauren at one time does not exceed 400.
Then in the big tent of the tauren's slightly crude camp, Prell met the legendary orc savior Thrall. Compared with the other orcs standing next to Thrall, his figure was not very tall, and he was green.
Skin, long black hair tied into two braids hanging next to the ears, wearing a black plate armor, with a row of small wooden sticks tied around his waist, which are the special totems of the shamans.
The weapon in his hand stopped Prell's gaze for a long time. It was a rectangular hammer that exuded a steel color. The handle of the hammer was wrapped with long strips of cut brown animal skin, and the body of the hammer was evenly distributed with golden streaks.
As for the rivet, Prell noticed that on one side of the hammer body, there was a silver ring with a wolf head logo embedded in it.
Next to Thrall, a huge frost wolf with white hair was lying docilely at the feet of his master and companion. When he noticed the sound of footsteps, the frost wolf raised his huge head vigilantly and stared at the scene.
A few strange visitors.
"Nice to meet you, respected orc warchief Thrall, I am Preel Windshear, the warchief of the Kingdom of Thresh, and this is Belga Windshear, and his twin brother Snu Windshear.
Hey, this is the witch-winged harpy Lestalen. Windstrike!" Prell was the first to say hello to Thrall.
Naturally, he spoke authentic orc language, and since Rexxa could speak it, Prell naturally learned it.
Thrall was taken aback, but a warm smile soon appeared on his face: "Hello, Chief Prell. Please forgive me for being rude. Which race are you from? Kobold?"
"Yes, we are from the Kingdom of Thresh in the Stonetalon Mountains, and we belong to the kobold race!" Prell said, probably sensing that he meant no harm. The white frost wolf lowered its head lazily,
He nudged Sal's calf with his head.
"It's really surprising that you can speak the language of our orcs. My companions and I came from the swamp in the east. In the south, we encountered a group of centaurs and half-horse creatures who were besieging these creatures.
Tauren, so we came to help.
It's a pity that we don't understand the language of the tauren. It seems that the tauren can speak some goblin language, but we are separated from our companions who understand goblin language. Fortunately, these new friends are so hospitable and give us food.
and tents, I want to sincerely thank them! So, can you help me convey the gratitude of the orcs? "
Thrall is a very polite and talkative orc. He briefly told his story, and Prell laughed: "Don't worry, I will convey it truthfully."
On the way to greet Cairn Bloodhoof, the tauren warchief had already told Prell in detail what had happened in the past few days. Prior to that, Prell had followed Medivh's request and informed the tauren and night elves about the eastern part of the country.
What happened in the Kingdom Continent also talked about the possibility of orcs and escaped humans appearing in Kalimdor Continent.
This was equivalent to a reminder to the tauren and night elves, so Kane Bloodhoof was not so surprised when he saw Thrall and the others. This was because Prell had given them sufficient psychological preparation in advance.
It was rare to meet an intelligent creature that could communicate with him smoothly. When faced with Prell's inquiry, Thrall did not hide much and told them their origins.
"I received guidance from a prophet in my dreams several times in a row. He told us that the orcs have lost their homeland. If you want to continue to survive in this world, then come to the continent of Kalimdor. My word
There should be no problem with the pronunciation, right? We should come to the continent of Kalimdor, which will be the new home of the orcs!"
Thrall said sincerely: "We have no intention of competing with the local indigenous races for survival land. We only need a piece of unclaimed land and we can build our own new home. We orcs are willing to compete with all friendly indigenous races.
Let’s live together peacefully, I hope this will not offend the respected Tauren and Thresh Kingdom!”
Prell laughed: "As an indigenous race, I would like to welcome you on behalf of the Kingdom of Thresh and the Tauren. I have a small question. Do your people only have these?"
Thrall shook his head: "We are in Stromgarde on the continent of the Eastern Kingdom, which is an abandoned human city. At the wharf of Stromgarde, we build ships. Hundreds of ships form a fleet and cross the endless sea. But I
The fleet I led was blown off course by the ocean current. At that time, there were only a few ships left in my fleet, and we disembarked on a coast full of silt shoals.
We built a small temporary camp there and gathered more than ten ships. I thought more ships would find the coast where we landed.
After all, the continent of Kalimdor is a strange land for us, so I gathered some tribesmen to explore outside, where we also met humans and fought with them. War is always inevitable! "
Prell narrowed his eyes: "So, didn't those trolls from the Darkspear clan of the orcs follow you? I guess you want to find Grom Hellscream's Warsong clan and other orcs who follow the Warsong clan.
Clan, right?”
Sal immediately clenched the warhammer in his hand vigilantly and looked at Prell suspiciously: "Why do you know so much?"
Prell smiled: "I don't mean any harm. In fact, I am a paladin who uses holy light." He raised his hand as he spoke, and a ray of holy light fell on the head of Thrall's frost wolf companion. The huge frost wolf shook its head in confusion and slowly stood up.
"Your frost wolf friend Snow Song seems to have been slightly injured, but he's fine now!" Prell said. Thrall looked at Frost Wolf Snow Song carefully, then at Prell, and then again. Looking at Kane Bloodhoof, who had been standing behind Prell with a smile, he finally loosened his grip on the war hammer.
"The Holy Light will tell me many things. In fact, I know many things about the orcs. I even know a warrior who has a great connection with the orcs. And I also know the companion you are looking for, Grom Hellscream. Where now!”
Prell continued to say in a sage tone that he wanted to leave a deep "prophet" impression on Thrall so that he would not be at a disadvantage in future cooperation with the orcs, or new tribes.
Thrall became excited: "So, where are my people now?"
Prell pointed to the north: "They should have drifted to Azshara in the north and are heading towards Ashenvale." Thrall looked confused. He really didn't understand the regional distribution of Kalimdor continent.
So Prell took out a map, pointed it out and told Thrall. In fact, Prell had been asking Gonzalo Swift Wind and his military intelligence department to strengthen the military intelligence from Azshara, the east bank of the Wrathwater River to the dust Patrolling and surveillance of mud swamp areas.
But this area is too vast. The number of tauren raptor druids under Gonzalo is too small, and his scouts are undergoing training, so they cannot spread the surveillance and patrol area too widely for the time being.
Looking at the detailed map in Prell's hand, Thrall looked at it carefully for a long time. He said in amazement: "The continent of Kalimdor is so vast. It seems that we are too far away from Grom. The ocean currents took us in different directions. But now that Grom has landed safely, I feel relieved!"
Prell felt that he could not rest assured at all, because he knew that Grom Hellscream's Warsong clan soon angered the night elves because of the deforestation of the virgin forest in Ashenvale, and then he was killed by the abyss lord. Mannoroth the Destroyer and Tichondrius the Dreadlord joined forces to deceive, drink the demon's blood again, and kill Cenarius.
To the orcs, Grom Hellscream is a great warrior, but in Prell's view, he is an impulsive, mindless warrior who does not consider any consequences and only knows how to use brute force. Rom killed Cenarius. At least, in the continent of Kalimdor, the relationship between the orcs and the night elves will not be so bad that they are incompatible with each other.
From the bottom of his heart, Prell actually wanted to keep the Kingdom of Thresh neutral, but this was obviously extremely unrealistic. The Kingdom of Thresh is based on the Stonetalon Mountains, which happens to be located in the Ashenvale of the Night Elves and the future new... among the tribal barrens.
In other words, according to the current strength of Thresh Kingdom, it does not have the right to choose sides, let alone the ability to play both sides.
Although the Thresh Kingdom has signed a covenant agreement with the night elves, it is only limited to jointly resisting the possible invasion of the Burning Legion. It does not mean that the night elves are willing to treat the Thresh Kingdom like other racial forces in the future alliance.
In fact, because of the existence of the Cenarion Circle and their common belief in Cenarius, the night elves are more accepting of the tauren. However, in the Kingdom of Thresh, the night elves' attitude is that they clearly regard them as vassals of the tauren.
, or a tool that can be used temporarily.
Prell can detect this from two high-level meetings with the night elves. The night elves are too proud. They have an extremely glorious history, and therefore have a strong sense of superiority over many races.
This sense of superiority made Prell very uncomfortable, and it also made him feel that the night elves may not be willing to put the Thresh Kingdom's status in the "alliance relationship" too high.
This is unacceptable to Prell. He has always believed that there is no distinction between any race. He hates racial discrimination, and he also believes that under his leadership, the Kingdom of Thresh may be weak now, but one day,
It can stand on an equal footing with many other powerful forces in terms of economic and military strength.
Based on this consideration, Prell felt that at least he had to make some efforts to improve the relationship between the night elves and the orcs, which would undoubtedly be beneficial and harmless to all parties.
