The secret alliance between the Kingdom of Stormwind and the Scourge symbolizes that all forces in Azeroth are in a relatively stable balance. Once the Scourge encounters a crisis or voluntarily withdraws from the world, no one in Azeroth can restrain the orcs.
With the support of the dragons and guardian Medivh, the orcs will surely wipe out all intelligent races in Azeroth and destroy the world.
A terrifying crisis hangs over Stormwind City's head. Either surrender and become the orcs' military rations, cut off bits of flesh and die with blood loss; or fight against it and win dignity in the flames of war.
Bolvar also had difficulty determining whether his decision was wrong. It was like a ferocious beast attacking the village. The villagers who initially fought with it would definitely pay the price with their lives.
But if all villagers choose to escape, the village will perish.
Now Stormwind City has made a stupid decision and bravely faced the orcs.
Duke Bolvar was thinking a lot, and this negotiation with Alsace won a protective umbrella for the Kingdom of Stormwind, while also consolidating its own power.
Without the help of the Scourge, Bolvar might not be able to serve as regent for much longer.
Under the leadership of King Varian, who has a cowardly character, fierce temperament, and was frightened by the orcs as a child, the Kingdom of Stormwind will only become a meat warehouse for the orcs.
The Storm Soarer was sailing on the sea, and a dark warship with a skull inlaid on the bow suddenly appeared. On the dark bow, Sylvanas stood facing the wind.
"The Forsaken?"
Duke Bolvar frowned slightly. The relationship between the Forsaken and the Scourge is now delicate. There are constant reports that Sylvanas is trying to become independent. All races in Azeroth are peeking into the secrets of the Scourge. I heard that the orcs are also there.
Win over Sylvanas.
The Storm Soarer has sufficient firepower, and Duke Bolvar is not worried. The semaphore on the Forsaken's mast shows that they are not hostile. Sylvanas wants to board the ship to talk to Bolvar.
Bolvar agreed to this request, and a small boat came slowly. After approaching the Storm Soarer, it first sprinkled a large number of flower petals, and then Sylvanas boarded the deck.
But it was still difficult to conceal the rancid smell of the undead.
Duke Bolvar deduced from this that Arthas did not trust Sylvanas. The Duke did not smell any peculiar smell from Professor Putricide and the two assistants around him, except for the stiff expression and overly delicate facial features.
Their appearance is no different from humans.
Why does Arthas distrust the Forsaken? The Duke thought of many reasons. When he saw Sylvanas's ambitious face, the Duke felt that he had found the answer.
"Dear Duke Bolvar, you have met Alsace, right?" Sylvanas said with rare courtesy.
"It seems that nothing can be hidden from the Forsaken." Bolvar did not intend to hide it. This was a balancing act: "Yes, Arthas promised to provide shelter to the Kingdom of Stormwind. If the orcs attack Stormwind City, then the Scourge Legion will
It will destroy Orgrimmar."
Sylvanas raised her eyebrows and said coldly: "The Forsaken have no intention of betraying the Scourge. You have also seen that Arthas does not trust me. I once prayed for a body that does not smell rancid. This is very important to Arthas."
It was easy for me to do this, but he didn't agree to it."
Bolvar said calmly: "Alsace once explained to me. He said that the Forsaken already has a big backer. To be honest, I don't know who it is, the Burning Legion, the Guardian Medivh, the dragon clan or the ancient gods.
.”
Sylvanas had a cold face and a turmoil in her heart. She worked for the moon god Elune and thought she was very secretive, but she didn't expect that Arthas would find out.
"This is nonsense." Sylvanas categorically rejected: "Your Excellency, the orcs are our common enemy. The Forgotten are originally the high elves of Silvermoon City and have always been allies with humans. If the Forgotten
I’m willing to join the Alliance, but what do Stormwind City think?”
Bolvar hesitated for a while, wondering whether it was a betrayal to Arthas, but it could be judged from Arthas' tone that the Scourge did not care about the Forsaken, and Arthas would not
This matters.
"On behalf of the Kingdom of Stormwind, I very much welcome the Forsaken to join." Bolvar made a decision quickly and showed enough sincerity.
"Your Excellency, your kindness makes me feel warm." Sylvanas took a deep breath and showed a smile. For a moment, she felt very charming.
The two parties exchanged a few polite words, and Sylvanas left with a satisfied look on her face. A think tank following Bolvar looked at the leaving Forsaken ship and warned: "Duke, don't believe what this banshee says.
I analyze that she is looking for the highest bidder, and as for her hatred against the orcs, Sylvanas doesn't care."
The Duke looked at the rough sea and thought that it would be good to form an alliance with the Forgotten. He shook his head and said, "But our offer should be much more reliable than Thrall's."
"What if we add the Burning Legion?" the think tank whispered.
Bolvar's face quickly turned pale.
Dark Temple.
The expedition to Northrend was already on the agenda. After solving Maiev's worries, the monster immediately summoned Kael'thas and Vashj to discuss sending troops to Northrend.
"According to reliable intelligence, the Frozen Throne has collapsed and the Scourge has suffered heavy losses. This is the best opportunity to conquer Arthas."
The monster's expression was solemn, and he did not explain the reason for sending troops to Northrend: "Everyone, this action must be cautious. I need a complete and exhaustive plan."
Kael'thas was indecisive. Although he received Robbie's assurance, he was still confused.
Vashchi behaved better, but her face was cold and she was not eager to express her opinion.
Akama the Broken stood up first, pointing to the map of Azeroth and said: "After our army crosses the Dark Portal, it must rush to Northrend by ship. The nearest port is Stormwind City, but humans obviously will not
Allow us to borrow their port."
The monster nodded: "What's your opinion?"
"We need a strong logistics base."
Akama pointed at the Undercity and whispered: "I heard that the Forsaken have a desire for independence. Sylvanas is eager to find a backer. It would be best if the Undercity can become our logistics base and we can build a portal.
, enter the Undercity directly from the Dark Portal, but how to impress this banshee is a problem."
With the monster's current status, and as the King of Outland providing protection to Sylvanas, there should be a way to impress her.
However, the monster is not at ease. Sylvanas will definitely hedge his bets. Once there is a setback in the conquest of Northrend, the Forsaken will quickly betray and cut off the army's retreat.
But if it were the Burning Legion, the situation would be different.
Kil'jaeden received the monster's report. After careful consideration, the Deceiver also believed that it would be a good idea to recruit the Forsaken and use the Undercity as a base to attack Northrend.
Confusion and bribery are the specialty of the Dread Lords. The three Dread Lords operating in the world of Azeroth soon received orders from Kil'jaeden:
"Varimathras, Balnazzar, and Deserok, the time has come for you to serve. You must rush to the Undercity immediately to convince the Forsaken to serve the Legion."
