Chapter 1064: Knock the bone and squeeze the marrow
Before Varian finished speaking, Thrall walked over with a treacherous look on his face.
"Look at your miserable appearance, King Varian, watch your words. This is the Undercity, not your Kingdom of Stormwind. You are just a rotten Forsaken. How can you take revenge on me?"
Thrall challenged Varian in person, leaving Varian speechless.
Vol'jin frowned. Thrall only talked quickly and forgot the real purpose of resurrecting Varian. Vol'jin could only step forward and persuade him:
"King Varian, Azeroth is in danger now. Garrosh, the shame of the orcs, is plotting to destroy this world. Please understand your justice and lend a helping hand."
"You asked me to lend a helping hand?" Varian stared at Vol'jin and gritted his teeth: "I remember you, Vol'jin, the one who threw me into the cauldron and cooked me, you disgusting troll."
Wo Jin looked upright and said righteously:
"King Varian, I hope you can put the overall situation first. At the critical moment of Azeroth's life and death, personal honor and disgrace are trivial matters. Your life and death don't matter. We should put aside our prejudices and work together to save
Fighting for Azeroth, only such a life has meaning and value."
"It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous. You don't want me to serve you." Varian yelled stubbornly, as if there was no room for negotiation.
Sylvanas said slowly:
"Varian, in Stormwind City, people respect you as the king, but this is the Undercity, and you are just a humble forgotten person. If you don't want to be sent deep into the sewers by me, dealing with maggots all day long, you'd better be good.
Listen to me."
Sylvanas' threat made Varian tremble with fright. Antonidas who was beside him coughed and said: "We have a lot of important work in the Undercity, and we have to work around the clock 24 hours a day. Your Majesty the King."
, do you still want to be a mining spider?"
Varian will never forget the experience of mining spiders. It was an unbearable past. Finally, Varian bowed his head and admitted defeat, and asked uneasily:
"I am already a forgotten person, how can I lead the Kingdom of Stormwind?"
Sylvanas said bluntly:
"Varian, you have never been a qualified king. Your rule should have ended since you raised the banner against the Scourge. It was our tribe and Jaina's dove of peace that supported you to this end.
At this step today, what does it matter whether you are alive or not? You are just an incompetent puppet."
Although he was very reluctant, Varian had to admit that Sylvanas was right.
Of course it was not his fault alone, but no one was innocent step by step, and every Varian had made unforgivable mistakes.
Thrall came over, grinned, and said to Varian:
"You need to do two things. First, write a letter to the Silver Crusade and King Qin's army in Stormwind City, ordering them to resist Garrosh's rule in the name of the king. Second, return to the Kingdom of Stormwind immediately, and the Dove of Peace will
I will fully assist you in recruiting half a million troops from the Kingdom of Stormwind to destroy the evil Garrosh."
Varian has no choice, yes, he is just a marionette and has no choice at all.
Sylvanas sent some elite royal guards to protect Varian back to Stormwind City. The fleet landed at the port of Stormwind City. The dove of peace sent by Jaina had been waiting for a long time.
The successive kings of Varian have been aggressive in their military affairs, and the Kingdom of Stormwind is on the verge of collapse. Its population has dropped sharply, and it is impossible to recruit soldiers, so tough measures can only be taken.
Varian summoned all the forces he could mobilize, including the Stormwind Royal Guards, the Stormwind City Defense Force, and members of the Dove of Peace, and raised a team of three thousand people.
Starting from Stormwind City, they mobilized from house to house. As long as they could breathe, no matter whether they were old, weak, sick or disabled, even if they were seriously ill and bedridden, they were all forcibly recruited into the army.
For a time, Stormwind City was in a state of panic, and there were cries everywhere. The elderly, children, women, and babies all became Varian's recruitment targets.
Soon the civilian residential areas of Stormwind City became a silent ghost town, deserted.
Even so, only less than five thousand soldiers were recruited, and Varian set his sights on Elwynn Forest again. This area that had been raided countless times had once again suffered a disaster.
After several days of continuous sweeps, the entire Elwynn Forest was deserted. Unfortunately, it was still far from enough. They barely scraped together 10,000 troops. Finally, a smart staff member came up with an idea.
"Your Majesty the King, there are a large number of jackals and murlocs in Elwynn Forest. They are humans too."
Varian's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately issued a decree to treat the gnolls and murlocs as citizens of the Kingdom of Stormwind.
As a result, the gnolls and fishmen of Elwynn Forest were unlucky and were forcibly recruited into Varian's army. Those who disobeyed were tied together with ropes and followed behind the army.
Fortunately, these two tribes were not exploited and were in large numbers. Varian finally gathered an army of 50,000. Although it was only one-tenth of Thrall's request, he did his best.
Varian deserves to be regarded as the greatest king in human history. With his genius imagination, he successfully recruited an army in the weak, hungry and cold Kingdom of Stormwind.
This strange army, composed of old, weak, sick and disabled humans, with the main force being gnolls and murlocs, boarded a ship at the port of Stormwind City and sailed to Tirisfal Glades.
Varian knew very well that Thrall would not approve of this bizarre army, so he ordered the army to set up camp outside Undercity, claiming to be an army of half a million.
The Stormwind Kingdom's 500,000-strong army set up camp in Tirisfalin, and Garrosh was shocked when he learned the news.
Garrosh had long understood how Stormwind City could muster an army of half a million people since it had lost control of the surrounding areas except Elwynn Forest.
Garrosh was puzzled and ordered Fordring to lead the Argent Crusade to test it out.
The Alliance's 500,000-strong army protected the Undercity, giving Sylvanas hope. Before Garrosh knew the truth, she immediately sent someone to send a secret letter to Garrosh.
In the letter, Sylvanas expressed her willingness to betray Thrall, Vol'jin and others to Garrosh on the condition that the Undercity's orthodox status in the Horde be retained.
Garrosh thought carefully: If the Alliance really sends half a million troops, even if they are just some untrained farmers, they will have to pay a price if they want to win.
It would be best to capture Thrall and others without losing any blood, so Garrosh agreed to Sylvanas's conditions, but Garrosh did not withdraw Fordring's army.
Fordring led 10,000 Silver Northern Expedition troops to land in Tirisfalin. This was a ragtag group of people who generally wore single clothes and whose weapons were mainly wooden sticks.
Most of the soldiers were malnourished, looked disheveled, and walked unsteadily.
Fording knew the situation in the Kingdom of Stormwind and did not believe that King Varian could recruit half a million troops. He led the Silver Northern Expedition to directly attack Varian's army. The two armies took up positions on the plains.
When Fording saw the so-called "half a million troops" led by Varian, he realized that the Silver Northern Expedition was already a rare elite.
As soon as the two armies came into contact, a battle was about to break out, and a huge melee immediately began.
