Civilization of Azeroth: Start the Great Pyramid Chapter 61

The history of the rise of the human race is actually less than 3000 years ago, to be precise 2800 years ago.

Thoradin united all the tribes and established the kingdom of Arathor, with the city of Rapids on the Arathi Highlands as its capital. At that time in the north of the continent, the high elves and the Amani trolls fought over the land. The high elves asked the Terran for help, promising to impart arcane magic to the Terran, in exchange for Thoradin's help.

After defeating the Amani trolls, the elves swore an oath of loyalty and friendship to the blood of Thoradin. The kingdom of Arathor reached its peak, and Rapids became the most prosperous city on the continent.

However, over time, the empire also fell apart.

The first group of humans to learn arcane magic also had their own students. There are more and more mages, and their frequent magical experiments interfere with the lives of ordinary people.

And those mages were unwilling to be bound by the laws of ordinary people, so the mages left torrent and established a magical city-state in the northwest Silverpine Forest: Dalaran.

The appearance of Dalaran is like a switch. More and more people who are unwilling to be restrained by Torrent City leave one after another and establish a free world.

Between the mountains adjacent to the Silverpine Forest, the mountain city-state of Alterac arose; on the peninsula south of the Silverpine Forest, the romantic city of Gilneas arose; and some people went further and established the seafaring city-state of Chur. Tiras.

At first, the rulers of the city of Rapids were happy to see it, because the split city-state still obeyed the city. The emergence of a new city-state means that the human race is exploring the outside world and opening up a larger living space.

But with the exploration of large tracts of land in the north and south, the lords in Rapids began to envy the "refugees" in their eyes. The backbone of these kingdoms valued a fertile land in the north, and established Lordaeron there with their own property.

At this point, the leadership of Torrent City finally existed in name only, and the descendants of Thoradin the Great felt betrayed. At the same time, Torrent City, as a thousand-year-old capital, has also suffered a certain degree of damage to the environment due to human activities.

Even Thoradin's descendants finally gave up the city of Rapids, no longer expected to be the co-lord of the human race, and explored further south. Finally, they stopped in the rich Elwynn Forest and established the Kingdom of Stormwind.

In the once prosperous Torrent City, there were only some small lords and commoners who were reluctant to leave here. They renamed the Torrent City to Torrent Fort, and established the pattern of the Seven Kingdoms of the Human Race.

In the millennium that followed, Thoradin's descendants gradually lost their right to rule the kingdom and chose to abdicate with the Wrynn family in exchange for a peaceful change of power.

Now, the human race has once again come to the crossroads of history.

Terenas has been in a good mood recently. A month ago, he personally took command of the battle on the fortress and repelled Orgrim's attack. Although it was thanks to the reinforcements that arrived in time, he also succeeded in letting people see his wisdom and bravery.

He hoped that the alliance would remain normalized after the war. And if you want to normalize the alliance, you must have the final say. As the saying goes, common people still have the head of the family. How can an alliance between nations be without a leader?

If you want to become a leader, you need to get the support of other countries. Terenas's first choice is the Kingdom of Stormwind.

The Kingdom of Stormwind was destroyed by the invasion of orcs, and it is now in the stage of being destroyed.

It's just that Terenas hasn't made up his mind about supporting the little prince Varian, or fighting for Lothar, the real power faction.

In addition to the Kingdom of Stormwind, the other is the Kingdom of Alterac.

As the shame of the human race, Alterac betrayed the alliance and surrendered to the orcs. Now it exists in name only. At present, he is only waiting for the king who is under house arrest: Oridon Perenold abdicates, and Alterac officially collapses and becomes ownerless. place.

But how to get this guy to sign the abdication edict is a problem. The seven human kingdoms are equal, and the kings of other countries have no right to dismiss a king.

If Perenold is stubborn and stubborn, even killing him will not gain the legitimacy of ruling this country. As for killing all the rebels or something, that was just a childish idea of a child, and Terenas didn't even think about it.

How to deal with Alterac is an important issue for the survival of the Alliance, and it is also the key to whether Terenas can gain leadership.

So when Li De pointed out the name Alterac with the tip of a knife, Lothar subconsciously thought that the other party's idea was too naive.

"All member states in the alliance are equal. No one can force Perenold to abdicate. Even if I want to go there, what kind of identity should I be?"

At this time, the conversation between the two returned to the tent, and Li De smiled mysteriously.

"Of course, as the commander of the alliance, Perenold can continue to be his king. But the moment he surrendered to the orcs, he announced the disbanding of the Alterac army in disguise.

An army that surrenders to an external enemy loses its military function. You can use the name of protecting civilians and clearing the remnants of the orcs, lead troops to govern there, and set up another authority.

Externally, he still retains the throne of Perenold, but any of his decrees are invalid. You can take a series of measures to establish your own prestige. In less than two months, you will be the de facto king of Alterac.

Does it matter whether Pirenold retires or not? After two or three years, naturally no one cares about him. "

Rosa was finally moved, but still hesitated.

"Occupying Alterac in this way, can other member states agree?"

Li De spread his hands.

"Otherwise? Can they come up with a better solution? Can't you also win the support of other countries? The first to win is His Highness Varian. From King Terenas, you only need to promise to recognize Lordaeron's alliance leading country. ' status, there is no room for discussion.

The Great Magister Antonidas of Dalaran has no direct conflict of interest here, and he also has a mind for the sake of the entire human race. With the ownerless Alterac, the alliance is bound to intrigue. Your plan to settle in Alterac will help stabilize the continent, and he will agree.

King MacLean of Nirnis belongs to the fact that as long as he is not allowed to pay, everything can be discussed.

As for the last Stromgarde, I can't say what King Trollbane's attitude is, but if most of the member states agree, he has no reason to object, right? "

By now, Li De has almost completely persuaded Lothar. But Lothar had one last question to ask.

"What about you? What are you doing so actively for me?"

This is a good question. Li Dezhengchou could not find the starting point and introduced "Light of Civilization" to Losar.

"What I want is the stability of the world and the prosperity of the human race. In the past two years in Tanaris, I have seen vitality in the desert.

We grow up in a world of abundance, what is this? This is the gift of Elune, the cradle of civilization, and we can actually live far better than we are now.

At the same time, we must not forget that there are countless enemies and conspirators lurking in the sky, in the shadows, and around us.

We need war, but we need just war. In addition, we should put more energy into the right direction, instead of meaningless intrigue and internal friction, the people can't stand the toss.

You went to Alterac to find a new way, not only as a pressure relief valve for Stormwind Kingdom, but also the best way I can think of to rescue the people of Alterac.

Because of the stupidity of the kingdom, people in the whole country will be labeled as traitors. How unfair is this? ! "

While Li De was talking eloquently, Lothar seemed to see the halo on the other side. It wasn't the Holy Light, but it was softer than the Holy Light~www.mtlnovel.com~ Lothar finally knew that Li De had changed there. In the past, he only had an appreciative attitude towards the younger Lothar. But now, Li De can make him feel admiration.

But then Li De changed the subject with a shy smile.

"Of course, I didn't do it without selfishness. I have a business plan to introduce dwarf argali in Alterac.

You know, the climate is similar to Khaz Modan. Establishing a farm there, as a raw material source for the textile industry, can increase the employment of many people and greatly improve the quality of life of the local residents.

And in order to achieve this, you need a trusted trading partner. To be honest, in today's Kingdom Continent, I only trust you. "

Li De's frankness not only did not make Lothar despise him, on the contrary, he admired the young man even more.

"Is Kalimdor really that magical? How can you have such a broad mind?"

Li De shook his head.

"Not so, the night I was separated from the large army. The battle with the enemy made me a hero, and the revelation in that moment gave me an epiphany.

Later, in Tanaris, the Guardian Dragon also gave me some help.

Since then, I have gradually understood the meaning of "hero". One cannot be called a hero without mastering the means of killing others. Only those who have the courage to sacrifice and lead more people to happiness are heroes. "

For Li De's point of view, Lothar could no longer agree with him. At this moment, thinking of his own escape before, made the commander feel ashamed. Avoiding can't solve the problem, using wisdom to face the problem can.

Thinking of this, Lothar took the initiative to reach out to Li De.

"I agree. What plans do you have after this, tell me together, I want to join."
