Chapter 52 - The Great Army

…………

As expected, these roads were abandoned by the Alliance. Doomhammer led his warriors through quickly. The man under the cloak kept his promise, and Orgrim was glad that he had been right. This road

It was indeed very dangerous. It was a stone path. As long as there were soldiers blocking the road and once the corpses piled up, it would be impossible to pass in any form. Therefore, he urged his army to move forward quickly. He knew that once his army passed through

Once we reach the mountains, it means the war is over.

They spent two days crossing the snow-covered mountains and descending into the foothills. So far, the orcs had not seen a human. Some of the warriors muttered impatiently about the need to kill, but Orgrim assured them that he would.

There is this opportunity.

The next day, the vanguard of the tribe swarmed down from the mountains. As usual, Doomhammer walked at the front. He stopped, surprised by the scenery in front of him. At the foot of the mountain stretched a huge lake, with water

Shining in the morning light. On the other side are more mountains, running generally north-south. And to the north of the lake is a city surrounded by huge walls.

"The capital of Lordaeron." Doomhammer observed, raised his warhammer above his head with both hands, and let out a war cry. The warriors of the tribe roared, and the surrounding hills echoed with their anger. Doomhammer let out a loud cry.

Lol. The city will soon know of the Horde's arrival, but they will panic. Before they can recover, the Horde will destroy them.

"Charge the city!" roared Doomhammer, raising his hammer again. "We will crush it and pierce the heart of our enemies! Onward, warriors, let us fight while the war cry still rings in their ears.

Kill them!" Doomhammer charged down the hills and across the plains, focusing entirely on the city.

Quel'Thalas

Nathanos followed Krisstrasza. The red dragon recovered quickly, and Nathanos was a little surprised at the speed.

"How many more days will you rest?" the human asked. The red dragon smiled softly and replied: "So you can appreciate my body more?"

Nathanos's face turned red, and the other party's playful demeanor made him feel ashamed. "That...that's not you, you are not like this in the first place." As soon as he finished speaking, the red dragon's footsteps stopped, and Nathanos

I thought she was angry and was thinking about how to apologize for my rudeness.

"Yes, that's not me. The same goes for my people." Kristrasa's voice sounded very low. Nathanos understood what she was talking about and how Kristrasa spent these days.

"I believe you."

"Really?" Christasa turned her head and looked at him in surprise. The human nodded. "Although it is difficult to make others believe that the red dragon family is not the enemy, one day the truth will eventually be revealed, and your queen will definitely

You will be rescued. I will also help you."

"Thank you." Christasa held his hand excitedly. "That's enough. I didn't expect anyone to believe in us. In the alliance military camp these days, I hear people discussing us all the time. They say that we

They are demons and monsters. The red dragon clan is the guardian of life, but we have caused great harm to this peaceful land. The self-blame and pain almost overwhelmed me."

Nathanos held Kristrassa with his other hand, "We all need someone who can understand us. If there is such a person who can openly become an enemy of everyone in the world in order to save the world, then he must know how to sacrifice."

The red dragon nodded, with tears in his eyes, and smiled with difficulty. "It's time for me to leave and find a way to save the queen."

"Have a safe journey and take care."

Kristraza let go of Nathanos's hand, took a few steps back, cast teleportation magic, and thanked Nathanos again the moment she disappeared.

After she left, Nathanos stayed where he was for a few minutes, then shouted to everyone around him, "Show up!"

Alleria, who was hiding behind a tree, hesitated for a moment, then walked over, holding a bow and arrow ready to go.

"When did you find out?" It was Nathanos who asked this question. It seems that the female elf has already discovered Krisstrasa's true identity.

"That night." Alleria replied, putting away the weapon, but the anger on her face did not dissipate. "I smelled the blood on your hands, and there was no magic smell in it."

That's it, Nathanos understood. The high elves have enjoyed the endless magic of the Sunwell for generations, and the power of arcane has almost penetrated their blood. However, Kristrassa is not a real high elf, so Aurei

Leah realized something was wrong at that time.

"It seems that I have been negligent sometimes." Nathanos laughed at himself, "So, what are you going to do? You should have heard the conversation between me and her just now. Do you want to kill me?"

"I still remember that you told me in Southsea Town many months ago that I couldn't do it." Alleria showed a bitter smile. She saw with her own eyes that Nathanos let go and destroyed Yongsong Forest.

The culprit. "Do you really believe in those demons flying in the sky?"

"They also have their own difficulties." Nathanos explained. He was thinking about whether to tell Alleria about the Red Dragon Queen, but he felt that now was not the time. Alleria already carried too many burdens.

, she can't be distracted now.

"I believe you too!" the female elf said, which shocked Nathanos, "but please don't tell Sylvanas." Alleria lowered her head and gritted her teeth as she continued, tears streaming down her face.

Underlined: "Don't tell Sylvanas that you knew a dragon and let her go. If she was standing in front of you today, she would definitely attack." The female elf tightened her fists and seemed to be using all her strength.

Use your strength to control your emotions. Then you tell the truth. "Our parents died in the flames of the red dragon, my brother is missing, and only Vereesa is still alive!"

Nathanos opened his eyes wide. Did he just get the news? Or did she already know it? He didn't know where the courage came from. He reached out and hugged the female elf in front of him. He wanted to say something.

, but couldn't say anything. If he were in Alleria's position, what would he do if his family fell in this catastrophe? Nathanos's heart was beating very fast, he didn't know that Oreria

It took much determination for Lelia to put down the weapon in her hand. The female elf sobbed in his arms, squeezing the human's clothes with her hands to vent her inner pain.

Lordaeron

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The orcs are coming!"

Terenas was stunned. He raised his head and looked at the guard captain Molefe who hurriedly broke into the throne. "What?" He didn't hear what Molefe said at all. Of course, he just couldn't believe it.

Terenas stood up and waved for him to come forward. "Those orcs? Are they nearby?"

"Yes, Your Majesty," he replied. Molefe was a seasoned veteran, and Terenas had known him well since his youth. But now he was pale and trembling. "They crossed

Alterac, and may even have reached the other side of the lake now!"

Terenas immediately passed the captain of the guard and strode away from the throne. He quickly walked through the hall, passed the staircase, and came to the nearest balcony, which extended from his wife's studio.

Queen Rhianne was now in her studio with her daughter Calia, their servants standing beside them. Terenas hurried in, followed by Molef, and passed them quickly.

Terenas came to the balcony, and then froze, staying motionless. Normally, he could see the spectacular lake and mountains in the distance. Now, these scenery were mixed with the black flow of people, like a black mud flow.

eroding the lake shore, the tribes are really coming.

"What's going on?" he asked Melef. The knight captain was now staring at the scene in the distance with his mouth wide open. "They must have come through Alterac. Did Perenold

Didn't you stop them?"

"They may have defeated him, Your Majesty." Molef replied absently, and then said with disgust. "But the trails between the Alterac Mountains are very narrow, and a small army can stop the Horde, unless...unless

They offered no resistance."

Terenas frowned and shook his head. Like Moleph, he had never trusted Perenolde. The man was selfish and cunning. But Hath, Alterac's general, was a qualified

A commander and a fierce warrior, he has his own opinions. He will definitely organize a strong resistance, and unless Perenold tells him to put down his arms, he may still comply with the order.

"Send my message to Alterac." Terenas finally ordered. "At the same time, let all my allies know, tell them our situation, and let us see what they will do." Terenas

Si decided, without despairing that they might not survive until rescue arrived. "Now the first thing we have to do is to gather the guards and sound the alarm. Call everyone over, we are pressed for time." He looked into the distance again.

Glancing at the lake, the tribe's army was now swarming towards them along the water bank.

The carrier pigeon carried the message to all the leaders of the Alliance, and the last person to receive the message was the Alliance army as far away as the Hinterlands. One of the carrier pigeons flew directly to Stromgarde, and the message was directly transmitted to Thoras, the king of Stromgarde.

· Trollbane.

"What?" Trollbane shouted as soon as he read the secret message, and threw out the heavy wooden cup he used to drink. The cup hit the ground and immediately fell apart.

"What's going on? Why did the Horde pass through Alterac so easily?" Thoras was extremely dissatisfied with Perenold, not only because Perenold competed with him for the border territory, but also because he thought Perenold

Nord is too smooth. Even if he is an arrogant and a well-dressed idiot, he should be able to resist the invading orcs! Even if these orc armies are large in number and can cross the mountains with brute force, they will inevitably be defeated.

The damage will be severe and the speed will be greatly slowed down, so that there will be enough time to warn Lordaeron so that they can be fully prepared. Now that the orcs have appeared at the lake, Terenas has no choice but to defend the city wall.

Solas stood up and paced irritably, clutching the inconspicuous note in his hand. He wanted to help his friend, but he didn't know how. Terenas was a good man

The strategist, his soldiers are the best warriors in the land, and his city walls are thick and strong. He firmly believes that they can defend the first wave of attacks. However, when all the tribes rushed down from the mountains and poured into the royal city

time, they will be in extreme danger.

"Damn guy!" He punched the back of the seat. "Perenold should have delayed them! He should have at least given us an alert! How could he be so incompetent?" Suddenly, he stopped pacing, and then

A possibility came to mind: Perenolde might not have resisted at all. When Lordaeron, Lothar, Terenas and other leaders met, only this guy and Genn were unwilling to join the alliance. At first Greimai

En refused this proposal because he was confident that Gilneas could defeat any enemy who tried to invade them. But Perenolde was different! He was the first to want peace talks.

"This bastard, did he really betray the alliance?" He kicked his chair away. "He must have negotiated peace with the tribe without telling everyone! If making a deal with the orcs can guarantee the security of his territory, he will definitely do it.

Do it with joy." Everything was clear now. He knew why the orcs were able to march straight through the mountains without causing any commotion, and why Terenas didn't know anything when the Horde came knocking.

Because Alterac opened its own gate and let them through.

"Traitor!" he shouted angrily, and Trollbane took out his long sword, Tor'karal, hanging from the weapons rack beside his chair.

"Gather the troops," he ordered the guards. "We are going to Alterac."

"But, Your Majesty," his guard captain replied, "we have already added half of our warriors to the Alliance army!"

Trollbane frowned. "Very well, we will leave no one behind. Take all of us with us."

"Are we going to help them, Your Majesty?"
