Azeroth Shadow of the Moon

Chapter 494: Barov the Rich

Andrea has no interest in the internal strife in the Alterac kingdom, and it doesn't matter who succeeds the king.

Contacting the Barov family instead of the Ravenholdt family is entirely because their territory and stored troops are the most suitable.

Dunholde Castle guarded by Aedlas Blackmoore is one of the strategically important places under the Ravenholdt family. The loss of this castle has caused heavy damage to Ravenholdt, and the loss of troops is not small.

Now Ravenholdt, who was stuck in the Eastern Wall fortress, was unable to send troops to Alterac Snow Mountain to clean up the mess, but Barov, who had never been attacked before, still retained a considerable amount of troops.

And from Caer Darrow to Alterac, this road is obviously better than Ravenholdt's marching route.

If the Barov family can clean up the Twilight's Hammer and the black dragon entrenched near the ruins of the old capital, with this credit, there is almost no suspense for the next king of Alterac.

Andrea's taking this step can be regarded as forming a good relationship with Barov in advance... Although he always feels that there may be other changes in the matter of the throne of Alterac.

The hyenas inside the country are easy to deal with, but the goshawks have been eyeing the outside... With the foundation of the Barov family, it may be difficult to stop the coveting of those powerful and greedy people.

Barov's old Duke, Lex, is still arguing with Duke Ravenholdt in South Sea Town. The person who contacted Andrea was Lex's son, Alex, the next head of the Barov family.

When he suddenly learned that the ruins of the old capital of Alterac could be taken back with the cooperation of the Wildhammer dwarves, Alex was quite excited, but he calmed down quickly after receiving a good education since he was a child, and sent someone to secretly contact his father Lake Si discuss countermeasures.

The scheming Lex continued to attract the attention of the old Duke Joseph quietly, but on the other hand quietly instructed Alex to act according to the plan formulated by the Moon Shadow Speaker.

When the three parties finished discussing the details of the cooperation through Prism's scouts, Andrea secretly transferred to Caer Daron, and Kurdran had already prepared the Griffon Knight at Eagle's Nest Mountain, ready to attack at any time.

Keir Darrow Island is located in the center of the scenic Darrowmere Lake. It was one of the territories that Alterac took the opportunity to snatch from Lordaeron, and was entrusted to the Barov family, the Duke of Alterac.

In order to win over the wealthy Barov family, the Perenold royal family will marry the Barov family every 2-3 generations. The two sides maintain a very close relationship, and they are truly the number one nobleman in Alterac.

Barov's overwhelming wealth is not just a metaphor, but a fact.

Within the territory of the Kingdom of Alterac, several of the largest towns are the territory of the Barov family, and even the small town of Brill at the gate of the King City of Lordaeron was bought by them with great power.

As the gateway to Lordaeron, Brill's absence from Lordaeron's jurisdiction has always been a thorn in the heart of the Menethil royal family.

Every generation of King Menethil would invite the Barov family to negotiate, suggesting that they would sell Brill back.

In terms of business, the Barov family did not have a wild offer from a lion, but Brill, as the main road leading to the royal city in the northern part of the Tirisfal Forest, has been valued under the development of the Barov family for many years. It has been multiplied countless times.

Even the royal family of Menethil would have to pay an unbearable price to buy Brill, let alone other nobles.

A single Brill made Menethil's throat stick, and the equally prosperous Southshore Town and Tarren Mill provided the Barov family with inexhaustible wealth. It is by no means empty talk.

When Andrea arrived at Caer Darrow, the leading army secretly assembled by the Barov family was ready.

These leading soldiers are completely different from the young soldiers that Andrea saw in Quel'Thalas. Although there is still a certain gap between them and the regular army in terms of combat experience, they are very energetic and well trained. The baptism of the people can gradually become a good soldier.

Not to mention the excellent weapons and armor purchased for them by the Barov family's financial resources, Andrea suspected that none of the troops directly under the Alterac royal family was as strong as the Barov family's combat effectiveness.

The Barov family is well versed in self-protection. With their wealth, it is inevitable to cause others to covet them. They must have enough deterrent power to deter Xiaoxiao.

Alex, Barov's acting head, went out to greet him in person. Andrea had a good first impression of the young man with a springy smile on his face.

"Dear Moon Shadow Speaker, welcome to Caer Darrow, I am Alex, the acting Patriarch of the Barov family."

Since Andrea did not bring a female companion, Alex went out to greet him carefully. It was not until Alex guided him into the castle of the Barov family that Andrea saw the other members of the Barov family. member.

Alex's wife, Jandis, is in full bloom, but she is not wearing aristocratic women's clothing, but is shown in a luxurious and low-key robe. The bumpy figure under the robe makes Andrea unable to resist Just took a look.

It seems that Jandis, who is only in his early 20s, is already the mother of three children, the eldest son Alex, the second son Wilton, and the little princess Ilucia of the Barov clan.

Alex and Wilton were about the same age, about 10 years old, and Ilucia was not yet five years old this year, and the little girl carved in pink and jade looked a little baby fat.

Ilucia seemed to be very curious about Andrea's long ears. After being urged by her parents to introduce herself politely, the little guy's eyes kept rolling around Andrea's ears.

Jandis also noticed her daughter's curiosity, she frowned slightly and reminded, "Ilucia, pay attention to etiquette."

"Okay, sorry, mother."

The little girl apologized to Jandis and Andrea in frustration. If it wasn't for business, Andrea would even want to squat down and play with this cute little girl.

"Cough~ time is running out, let's get straight to the point."

Andrea gave Ilucia a friendly smile, and turned to Alex with a straight face.

As the hostess of the family, Jandis saw that her husband and the distinguished guests had important matters to discuss, so she took the three children away wisely.

"My scouts conducted multiple scouts at extreme distances, and basically confirmed the number of Twilight's Hammers in Alterac Snow Mountain."

Andrea took out a map from the pocket of space and put it on the table, "Occupying the ruins of Alterac is a tribal clan named Twilight's Hammer, and the chief of the clan is Cho'gall, a powerful two-headed ogre Spellcaster, proficient in both fel and shadow spells."

The Barov family has been collecting information on these alien races since the orcs invaded. Alex also has some basic understanding of the ogre species, but this is the first time he has heard of the two-headed ogre.

This is also inevitable. Most of the two-headed ogres rose up and were killed because they could not bear the slavery of the tribe. Only Cho'gall, the hob meat, has survived to the present.

In the original history, Gul'dan used the runestones of Bandin Norrell's enchantment to build the Storm Altar, and the artificial infusion power gave birth to a large number of double-headed ogre mages, but this timeline is naturally impossible.

"Ogres are not the only members of Twilight's Hammer. Some orcs and trolls were also bewitched by Cho'gall's dark words to join them. However, Cho'gall didn't take them all with him before he fled. Most likely they were inserted into the tribe as eyeliners. gone."

Alex felt a little puzzled by this, "Chairman Moon Shadow, please allow me to ask a question."

"Please say."

"Why, as a member of the tribe, Cho'gall still wants to plant eyeliners inside Orgrim's army?"

"Well..." Andrea rubbed his nose and said helplessly, "It would be too long to explain from the beginning. Simply put, Cho'gall and the great chief Orgrim...even Gull, the teacher who taught him fel spells, Dan is not of one mind."

"I don't know what happened to him in the past, but now I'm sure that Cho'gall was definitely brainwashed and bewitched by an evil existence hiding in the dark of Azeroth. We must try to kill him here and kill him. Another tentacle of the man behind the scenes."
