Chapter 571: The pros and cons of sending troops
,!
Onyxia didn't point out who was behind the scenes, and the few people with a lot of information could easily analyze the target.
Valeera calmly pointed out the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes: "The fire in the granary and the assassination of the special envoy are 99% due to the terror king."
"I even suspect that there may be a shadow of the Dread Demon King behind the sudden mopping up of the Moss troll."
With the current relationship between Lordaeron and Quel'Thalas, if they don't know the truth behind this matter, the Silvermoon Council is unlikely to agree to send troops.
But if Sharlayan personally stated the cause and effect to the parliament and the Sun King, it might be able to convince them to change their attitude.
But, as Onyxia bluntly asks, is it necessary?
If they help, what benefits will Quel'Thalas get?
There is a thief scout from Backlight Blade in the Quillins hut, and the Earl of Deep Shadow not far from the gate of Salas can receive the latest information from the front in time.
As long as the Silvermoon Council is persuaded to obtain the Sun King's permission, Sharlayan can dispatch the Red Dragon (Young Dragon) Knights stationed in the ruins of Zul'Aman within a few hours, and arrive at the scene within 1 hour, at most 2 hours will end the battle.
The fighting power of the Red Dragon Knights was undoubtedly revealed in the Second Orc War. With the poor strength of the impoverished Moss troll, it was not even enough for the Knights' mounts to fit between their teeth.
Sharlayan discussed with Onyxia and Valeera, and decided to go to Silvermoon City again tomorrow morning, and tell Kael'thas the secret behind this matter, and let him decide whether to send troops to help.
"Ha~"
Tina Gosa yawned sleepily: "Can I sleep? I'm sleepy."
Stellagosa shook her head helplessly, walked to the sofa and hugged Tina.
Sharlayan laughed and said: "Then let's go here first, and tomorrow I will go to Silvermoon City first."
"Valeera, Stella, the territory is temporarily entrusted to you to take care of."
"Oni, help me analyze the pros and cons of sending troops or not."
There is one thing to say, the dragons actually don't need sleep.
Most dragons sleep through the day just because they're bored, but who wants to sleep to pass the time when there's something to do?
Little Tina has lived with Sharlayan and other mortals for a long time, and has developed a biological clock just like mortals, and will unconsciously feel sleepy at night.
Onyxia waved her hand lazily: "Okay, I'll stay up all night, and I'll tell you the result tomorrow."
…
"Dread Demon King?!"
When Kael'thas knew that Sharlayan was here for the Stratholme matter at first, he acted very casually.
But when he learned that there might be a fearful devil behind the incident, his attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.
After listening to Sharlayan's in-depth analysis, Kael'thas also realized the trickiness of this turmoil, and it was indeed very suspicious.
"Hiss~"
Kael'thas rubbed his smooth chin in confusion: "I don't want to put my hot face on the cold **** of Terenas, that brat, but this matter involves the Burning Legion..."
Kael'thas has already lived nearly a thousand years old, so he is qualified to call Terenas, who is less than a hundred years old, a dead brat.
But looking at his still young and handsome face, and recalling Terenas's wrinkled old chrysanthemum face, Sharlayan always felt a little out of harmony.
"Sharlayan, do you think we should send troops?"
"Should."
Sharlayan had already made preparations, and Onyxia, who stayed up all night to analyze, had already told him the pros and cons of sending troops and not sending troops.
Seeing Sharlayan's resolute attitude, Kael Thass suddenly became interested: "Oh? Tell me in detail."
"The reason for sending troops is simple."
Sharlayan walked to the world map hanging in Kael'thas's study, and pointed at the junction of the northern part of Stratholme and Quel'Thalas with his finger.
"The turmoil happened at our doorstep. No one can guarantee where the dreadlord who messed up Stratholme will turn his attention next."
Kael'thas nodded solemnly: "The possibility that they took advantage of the chaos and went north cannot be ruled out."
"Dreadlords are the best at disguising. If they pretend to be high elf refugees and sneak into our country, there will be endless troubles."
After all, Stratholme is one of the few big cities in Lordaeron, and there are many high elves who go out to do business in the city.
Without preparation in advance, it would be difficult for the defenders of the gates of Thalas to tell whether there might be a dreadlord hiding among the refugees.
To this end, Onyxia made a suggestion.
Regardless of whether the high elves send troops or not, an additional group of priests must be sent to the gate of Salas to inspect every refugee trying to enter the mirror with the holy light.
The dreadlords who served in the Burning Legion used evil energy, which was inherently incompatible with the holy light, and they would react as long as they were illuminated by the holy light.
However, after all, this is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. There is no reason in the world to guard against thieves for a thousand days.
According to Onyxia's analysis, it is best to pinch the source of the turmoil caused by the Dread Demon King.
Once the Mossy Troll is repelled, it will be impossible to send troops to die for a long time.
The source of the turmoil in Stratholme today is the lack of food, such things as food... Quel'Thalas has too many granaries to hold, and a lot of food is exported to countries that are short of food every year.
Like Stormgard.
Under the "wise" leadership of King Garin, Stormgaard, which was once a relatively strong country, declined rapidly like a diabetes insipidus.
Because the Witherbark trolls continued to harass more and more recklessly, they couldn't even be self-sufficient in food, and had to rely on the food sold from Quel'Thalas by Kul Tiras offshore merchant ships.
Even if Kael'thas immediately told Terenas the news of the turmoil in Stratholme through a special channel, Lordaeron would still need to spend a lot of time to raise food, and then load the food to Stratholme.
Onyxia calculated that even if the journey is smooth, it will take at least 7-10 days.
Sharlayan did not believe that the Dreadlord, who had already laid out his plans, would let these food transport teams go.
On the other hand, the remaining food in Stratholme could not last for 5 days. In just 5 days, the demoralized Stratholme army probably just arrived at the East Wall sentry tower.
When they wiped out the mossy trolls that caused chaos, the daylily might be cold, and there might even be a tragedy of cannibalism in the city of Stratholme, which has no food supply.
Kael'thas tapped his finger on the table subconsciously: "It shouldn't be."
"The common people are indeed out of food, but those nobles who habitually hoard resources should still be able to persist."
"Oh~"
Sharlayan spread his hands sarcastically: "Your Majesty, do you think those nobles will open granaries?"
"…Won't."
"Then what do you think the people who are short of food will do when they are desperate?"
Kael'thas frowned: "Break into the noble mansion and rob food?"
"That's right."
Sharlayan said approvingly: "This is the only way for them to survive."
"But the food stored by the nobles is only for their own emergency, and it is impossible to meet the needs of hundreds of thousands of people in the entire city."
"I boldly predict that even if the civilians of Stratholme break through the defense of the nobles' private soldiers and grab food, at most they will be able to last for another 2-3 days, and the problem cannot be fundamentally resolved."
Kael'thas leaned his head back on the chair, closed the door and thought for a while before speaking again.
"So, the original intention of the Dreadlord to provoke this turmoil was to split the apparently powerful Kingdom of Lordaeron?"
Sharlayan nodded: "It's not far from ten. No matter how tight Lordaeron's finances are, their overall national strength is still the number one among human beings."
"As long as Terenas can make up his mind to execute all the orcs in the shelter to reduce financial pressure, Lordaeron will soon recover."
"Oh~"
Kael'thas sneered and complained: "I don't think Terenas would do such a self-defeating thing."
Sharlayan smiled noncommittally: "Who knows, if he is cornered, Terenas, who was once considered a wise king, would know how to choose."
"It's not the main topic we're talking about, so let's get down to business."
Sharlayan said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I suggest using the Red Dragon Knights to quickly defeat the moss troll's main force. At the same time, we should use a two-pronged approach to arrange regular troops to assist the caravan to **** food to Stratholme~www.readwn.com~ The guards of the food team can help to quell the riots in the city, as long as they have enough to eat, not many civilians are willing to rebel with their heads tied to their belts.”
Kael'thas hesitated: "Is it possible? In case Terenas accuses us of illegally crossing the border and brutally interfering in Lordaeron's internal affairs..."
"Humph!"
Sharlayan sneered disdainfully and said, "He begged us to send troops. We are only providing assistance in a humanitarian spirit, and we don't plan to invade Lordaeron's territory."
"With Terenas' personal letter to testify, I'm not afraid that he will bite me randomly afterwards."
Kael'thas weighed the pros and cons in silence, and stood up after a while and said, "From the standpoint of the royal family, I agree with your suggestion, but the issue of sending troops still needs to be voted on by the Silvermoon Council."
"This is also an opportunity."
A meaningful look flashed in Kael'thas' eyes: "The remnants of the Amani thought they would be safe hiding in Zuma'shar?"
"Hehe~ Our newly opened mine is still short of people. It's time to find more miners."
