When outside Theramore, Thrall, as the chief of the tribe, signed several cooperation agreements with Jaina whose trade volume was not very large, and these agreements were just to convey a yearning to Theramore.
Just the hope of peace.
The diplomatic power of the tribe is in the hands of Thrall. In other words, in terms of general external diplomatic relations, the tribe is dominated by the orcs. The relationship between the orcs and humans is not harmonious, so the cooperation between the two parties is also difficult.
Extremely limited.
But Prell is not willing to do this. If you take into account the four major members of the tribe, his Thresh Kingdom and the Tauren's Thunder Bluff, there is not much contradiction or conflict with humans. Therefore, from a natural standpoint, Prell
Bloodhoof and Cairn are the representatives of the dove faction of the tribe.
Today's tribe is not a centralized entity. As the chief of Thresh Kingdom, Prell still retains some diplomatic rights. Of course, under the premise of the tribe's overall foreign policy, he cannot violate Thrall's diplomacy.
policy.
Prell had only one intention in inviting Jaina to visit: to establish trade cooperation with Theramore and to seek technical guidance and support from humans in agriculture.
Regarding this point, Prell had already lost his temper with Thrall when they were outside Theramore City. His reason was also very legitimate: the tribe needed a stable source of food, and self-sufficiency was the best and only way, no matter it was
Orcs, trolls or tauren are all nomadic fishermen and hunters, so his Thresh Kingdom must be reluctant to engage in farming.
Thrall also expressed support for Prell's appeal. Nowadays, the orcs' food mainly relies on trade with the goblins, and the currency of their trade is mainly the property obtained from liberating orc slaves and breaking through human castles.
After all, these assets were limited, and purchasing food was not a long-term solution. Therefore, while building the city of Orgrimmar, Thrall also began to arrange for the orcs to build farms on the east bank of the Wrath River and near the silt swamp, and try to start agricultural production.
However, in the era of the planet Draenor, the orcs were nomadic, fishing and hunting, and did not have enough experience and technology in agricultural planting. The food problem could not be solved by building a few farms.
So Thrall expressed support for Prell, because in the internal assessment of the orcs, the military strength of the Thresh Kingdom was weak. The reason why he was able to join the tribe was because the kobolds were good at mining, and the Thresh Kingdom controlled Kalimdor.
There are several large mines in the north-central part of the continent, which is the biggest reason why they became members of the tribe.
When Prell sent the invitation to Jaina, he also briefly discussed some ideas for cooperation between the two parties. Jaina had no interest in helping the kobolds develop agriculture, and she did not even intend to agree.
However, considering that Theramo has just established a foothold in Dustwallow Swamp, building and developing a city requires a large amount of materials. If it can maintain a good ore trade with the Kingdom of Thresh, it will be very beneficial to Theramo's development, so in the end
Accepted Prell's invitation.
Jaina's envoy group has about two hundred people, not including the human cavalry messenger group that arrived first. At Glory Post, she noticed that it has developed into a bustling trade bazaar, with tauren, kobolds, and harpies.
, the wild boar people are conducting trade here. Although it is very simple, it is prosperous and harmonious.
In the Malacajin Valley, Jaina and her party were warmly received by the tauren, but she also noticed that there was a group of black tauren who seemed to have some hostility towards humans. Jaina did not understand the situation of the Grim Totem.
I simply thought that it was probably the first time these tauren saw humans, and they were exposed to the propaganda within the tribe and showed unexplained hostility.
Continuing to walk along the spider web path towards the Windy Valley, Jaina noticed that along this forest road, there were several inns and resting spots set up by tauren, harpies and kobolds. The buildings may be simple, but the journey along the way is very smooth.
It is safe and can indeed be considered prosperous.
When entering the Gale Valley, she finally exclaimed for the first time since her trip, because she saw the Gale Watch. The Gale Watch was expanded at the site of the original sentry set up by the venture capital company. The kobolds dug out a small structure on the mountainside.
The small fortress on the mountain is connected to the entire entrance of the canyon.
This outpost feels a bit familiar to Jaina because it is so similar to the dwarven fortress. In fact, the architectural style of the kobolds is a mixture, and the Storm Outpost is a mixture of pandaren, orcs, and dark iron dwarves.
As well as the goblin architectural style, overall it favors the Dark Iron dwarves.
That was the work of Morgan Manbeard. The Dark Iron Dwarves have a very high status within the Kingdom of Thresh. After all, they are among the first batch of real technical experts in the Kingdom. Prell gave them high enough treatment, which made them
Morgan Manbeard felt a little sorry, so he took the initiative to provide a blueprint.
The Dark Iron Dwarves once participated in the Battle of Mount Hyjal as logisticians and warriors. Prell protected them very well. If the Dark Iron Dwarves were not keen on fighting, he would not even be willing to bring them to the battlefield.
Compared with the casualties of other races and clans in the Kingdom of Thresh, only one of the Dark Iron Dwarves was seriously injured and disabled in the battle on Mount Hyjal. It was Prell who took careful care of him, and the one who was attacked by a Doom Guard on the battlefield was almost stabbed.
The dwarf, which was cut into two pieces, was rescued by force.
For the dwarves, who are bold and straightforward, this is a great kindness. They are also willing to provide more help to the Kingdom of Thresh without revealing the core secrets of the dwarves and the intelligence of the Kingdom of Thaurissan.
Prell met Jaina and her party at the Wind Post. Humans naturally come on horseback when traveling. Although the Kingdom of Thresh does not produce horses, it can still make up some mounts, but the height of the kobold is not suitable after all.
He was riding a horse, so he came in a carriage.
Naturally, the carriage was built with the help of the Dark Iron Dwarves. The carriage can be disassembled. In order to allow Jaina to enjoy the scenery of the Windy Valley, Prior ordered people to remove the carriage board, put up a large umbrella, and sat across from Jaina.
In the carriage.
Leading the way were the gnoll cavalry and kobold musketeers specially selected by Prell, while Jaina's entourage rode behind the carriage.
Jaina did not refuse Prell's arrangement. She happily sat on the carriage and noticed that the serving kobold guards pulled a layer of gauze from the top of the big umbrella to cover the carriage.
"This is dustproof!" Prell said proudly: "And it is specially made from the silk of the deep moss spider, which has a certain ability to defend against bows and arrows. If Ms. Jaina likes it, I will give you a set!"
Jaina laughed and did not refuse. To be honest, she is the princess of Kul Tiras after all, and she is also the most proud disciple of the chief mage of Dalaran. She has seen too many good things, and Prell showed off the spider silk.
She was just curious about the gauze.
Then while traveling along the way, Jaina noticed that this forest road was extremely hard and seemed to be made of some special building materials. Every few dozen miles, there would be a small inn, and there were many caravans coming and going.
, seemed very lively.
Moreover, she also discovered that large areas of trees in the forest had been cut down intermittently and had been cleared to form small farms.
Prell said: "This is when the venture capital company's logging team cut down the forest indiscriminately and destroyed the forest, and we used it to cultivate farmland."
Jaina became more and more curious. In the Eastern Kingdom, kobolds were also widely distributed. However, kobolds almost always used mines as their strongholds. Relying on their super reproductive power, they occupied mines everywhere. In several human countries,
, the kobolds have overrun and become a scourge.
The Kingdom of Thresh obviously looks more civilized and gentler than the kobolds in the Eastern Kingdom.
Another surprise that brought Gianna was that every time it was time for meals, Prell specially brought a team of chefs he had trained to provide the meals. Although the ingredients of the food surprised Gianna, the taste
Not bad. If you don't take the ingredients into account, Jaina feels that the overall level of banquets for human nobles is slightly inferior.
It was still dusk when the convoy arrived at Black Wolf Town. The itinerary was determined after consultation between Theramore and the diplomatic envoys from the Kingdom of Thresh, but Prell also instructed Capelan that he hoped they could arrive at Black Wolf Town at dusk.
.
Outside Black Wolf Town, when they saw the day-like lights in the distance, all humans, including Jaina, were amazed, because from outside the town, under the bright lights, Black Wolf Town was simply bigger than
Many human cities are still prosperous.
The convoy slowly entered Black Wolf Town. The spacious, clean and lively streets, the pedestrians coming and going, the cries of vendors, the shops with wide open doors for business, the street lamps with candles, and the red lanterns in the Pandaren style all over the streets made human beings
He completely put away his contempt.
In the world of Azeroth, the history of human beings is not that long among many intelligent races, but it has developed the fastest. It can be said that human beings can fully represent the degree of civilization development in the world of Azeroth.
So even though the Kingdom of Lordaeron has been destroyed and disappeared, the human remnants of Theramore still have a strong sense of pride, even in the face of the night elves whose history is so long that it can be regarded as a living encyclopedia of Azeroth.
They also still maintain their pride.
Originally, they thought that the Kingdom of Thresh was just a few small forces built in mines and caves. However, what they saw and heard along the way made humans realize that the changes and development of this world exceeded their expectations.
At least the Black Wolf Town in front of us is not inferior to many human cities. In terms of urban planning, architectural layout, and architectural style, it is full of unique style and full of life.
At the city hall of Black Wolf Town, Rexxar, Belga, and other senior officials of Thresh Kingdom who stayed in Gale Valley had already arranged everything, and then welcomed the arrival of Jaina and her party.
In the spacious city hall, Prell held a grand welcome dinner. Jaina was surprised to find that there were mountain giants in the Kingdom of Thresh!
What she saw was Gruzik. He had led a team to discover the rock salt mine before. Prell immediately mobilized manpower to dig. With the digging abilities of mountain giants and kobolds, the first batch of rock salt had been transported back.
Rael is organizing manpower to study how to purify it so that it can be consumed safely.
Gruzik was following the convoy back. He planned to seek help from the Earth Ring Shaman Organization or ask the Druid for advice. After all, in a high-magic world like Azeroth, spells have too many wonderful uses.
