Civilization of Azeroth: Start the Great Pyramid

Chapter 179: former army commander

On the ship to Stormwind, Kel'Thuzad is on deck serving his cat. Mr. Bigworth was lying on the cask with his eyes half closed, enjoying the dried fish that Kel'Thuzad fed him.

"Are you going to take it with you even on the battlefield?"

Reid walked over to Kel'Thuzad and said, at the same time he couldn't help but stretched out his fingers and scratched Bigworth's chin, making the kitten purr comfortably.

This came as a huge surprise to Kel'Thuzad, who never got close to anyone other than him.

"Bigworth only eats the food I feed, and I have the confidence to protect it on the battlefield. To be precise, I have confidence in you, and I believe you can turn the tide."

Kel'Thuzad said this, but Li De felt the pressure on his body increased sharply. To be honest, the current situation is extremely unfavorable for the alliance. The Orcs have only one leading force, the Thunder King Clan, which has more than 10,000 people, and he has only 5,000 people. But even these 5,000 people were filled with a negative atmosphere.

...

The ship docked at the port of Stormwind City. After Li De disembarked with the team, he saw Duke Grayson, who was sent by Varian to contact him.

"Li De all protects the day."

"Good day Duke Grayson."

After the two greeted each other, a reluctant smile appeared on Grayson's face.

"General Turalyon is missing now, and the entire Stormwind Kingdom is in a panic. It's really nice of you to come. His Majesty Varian needs your help now."

Li De knew it in his heart and didn't say much, just troubled the other party to take him to see Varian.

Stormwind City has already started the slow city construction work. Li De shook his head with some dissatisfaction in his eyes. This kind of reproduction efficiency is too slow. , here is simply not enough to resist the aggression of the orcs.

After leaving the port, walking in the urban area where the city wall has not yet been built, Li De was thinking about how to fight this battle. But when he saw that even crossing the Chuancheng River, he had to walk on the pontoon bridge composed of small boats, Li De finally couldn't hold back.

"How come rebuilding is so slow?!"

Grayson sighed.

"The treasury just can't come up with that much money, half of the money is already spent on rebuilding the houses, the walls, bridges and roads have to be delayed.

The plan we listed to His Majesty is a ten-year rebuilding plan for Stormwind City, but now the re-invasion of the orcs has disrupted our plan. "

Li De did not speak after hearing this, but just sneered. He knew that Greg was in charge of the civil service system in Stormwind now, and this wily guy was planning to become a powerful minister, especially since Turalyon was not there to restrict him. His subordinates in charge of urban construction said that there was no corruption, but Li De would not believe it if he was beaten to death.

Seeing Li De just sneered, Grayson was too embarrassed to talk about it, Turalyon was the commander of the King's Guard when he was not there, and he was quite critical of some of Greg's subordinates. Those guys went a little too far!

Li De didn't bother much about these, and now he has no energy to deal with those bastards. He only knew that it was useless to use Stormwind to fight the orcs, and the battle plan needed to be adjusted.

Varian can be said to be very unlike a king, because he is more like a warrior because of the precocious changes in the country. The most notable point is that he did not even build a decent palace, and his daily residence was turned into a military building. fortress.

"Li Dedu protects you at last."

Li De noticed the flickering light in Varian's eyes when he looked at him. At this time, Varian was wearing a military uniform and holding the protector Gazas he gave him, very like a mighty general. It's just that Li De has deliberately imitated Lothar and Turalyon, and the uniform is more like a costume.

"Marshal Lothar appointed me to be the former commander-in-chief of the army. I recommend you to be the deputy commander-in-chief to the marshal. All the logistics of the army will rely on Stormwind City."

Both belong to the leaders of the alliance, and the two are now equal, so they avoid all the politeness and go straight to the theme.

Although Varian was a little stunned, he quickly entered the state and invited Li De to enter the war room to watch the news that the Griffin Knights were currently receiving.

"On the day the blizzard fell, many griffins were frantic and restless. Fortunately, griffins are highly adaptable creatures, especially resistant to severe cold. My team flew out of the cursed land, but I was unable to bring out Tula. Raise them."

In the war room, Li De met Kurdran Wildhammer. When it came to this, the leader of the Wildhammer dwarves was stunned with blood. The incident was regarded as a shame in his life.

Also in the war room was the great wizard Ansrem. This time he brought 200 mages to the Kingdom of Stormwind.

"We did make the mistake of underestimating the enemy, ignoring the presence of strategic spellcasters among the orcs, especially given the premise that the orcs robbed the Eye of Dalaran.

I followed the Kurdran leader to survey the periphery of the Blasted Land. The snow there has not dissipated, and it has a strong magical atmosphere, which can be determined to be caused by the Eye of Dalaran. "

Speaking of this, Ansrem also shook his head. There is only one thing he can't say outside of Dalaran, that is, Dalaran's mages have studied their artifacts for so many years, but they can't even master other magics other than observation space.

On the contrary, the orcs who were determined not to use arcane magic could use the Eye of Dalaran to create spells that change the sky! He had already prepared a report and sent it to Antonidas, but it was definitely a scandal in Dalaran.

"Everyone, after the previous fiasco, we have to learn this lesson. Now our troops are weaker than the orcs, so we must and can only defend strategically.

The current situation in Stormwind City is seen by everyone, and we can't expect Stormwind City to fight orcs.

Without a strong military fortress, we can only rely on favorable terrain to defend. Defend Redridge, defend Duskwood! This is the only thing we can do now. Only by confining the orcs to the Swamp of Sorrows and the Blasted Lands will we be qualified to discuss the possibility of a counterattack in the future. "

According to his identity, Li De is the leader of the alliance, and according to his position, Li De is the former commander-in-chief of the army, so his words have the highest effect.

Varian has no military experience at all, and he doesn't understand Li De's statement that he has completely surrendered Swamp of Sorrows, but he still believes in Li De's decision.

"Let's exit the Swamp of Sorrows first, our army is not adapted to fight there, and going too far in the Swamp of Sorrows will increase our logistical pressure. On the contrary, if we let out the Swamp of Sorrows, the logistical pressure will be the orcs. "

Kel'Thuzad explained to Li De what he was too lazy to say. After entering the war room, this guy immediately assumed the role of staff.

"Bishop Bendinitas, how many priests are there in Stormwind Kingdom?"

Suddenly asked by Li De, Bendinitas thought for a while.

"There are less than a hundred of them, and most of them have followed General Turalyon to the Blasted Land, and now..."

Bendinitas didn't say any more, and Li De also knew it in his heart.

"From now on, mages, priests and griffin knights will be merged into the command system of the former army, and then they must participate in the unified adaptation of the army to eliminate all the possibility of fighting independently. We only have such a small number of troops, and we can't tolerate the slightest bit. mistake."

Ansrem, Bendinitas, and Kurdran Wildhammer all agreed, and Li Decai looked at Varian at this time.

"King Varian, Stormwind City is in charge of logistics. This is what I worry about the most. We must not let the greed of a small group of people destroy us at the moment of life and death!"

Li De basically pointed out the corruption problem of the civil servants in Stormwind City. Varian also held back his anger. When he heard that Lothar was taking a knife on the nobles in Alterac, Varian really thought about it. Learn to do it.

But the precocious he knew very well that he couldn't. The main body of Stormwind Kingdom was aristocratic politics. Now that the kingdom was very weak, he could only order MI7 to silently collect evidence.

Fortunately, the army under Li De in this war was entirely dedicated to the Union's funds, and most of the logistics materials were produced by both Lordaeron and Hanhai Protector. Stormwind City was responsible for organizing personnel and transportation.

That is to say, as long as a financial channel that is not influenced by Greg's family of civil servants is established~www.wuxiaspot.com~, these problems can be well avoided.

"Let's see, in the past, the Protector of the Vast Sea was still under the jurisdiction of the Stormwind Kingdom, and legally speaking, it was necessary to pay taxes for the Stormwind Kingdom.

Now that the Huanhai Protector has become independent, but the tax has not been paid to Stormwind Kingdom in the previous year, so before the two countries officially sign a contract, the Hanhai Duhu must pay the tax first.

I plan to use the tax of 10,000 gold coins to improve the bridge facilities in Stormwind City, but the premise is that every money spent with the 10,000 gold coins must be completed under the supervision of the Huanhai Protector.

Therefore, the Huanhai Protector hopes to open a construction bank in Stormwind City. In the future, the funds related to construction and security can be put in the bank. The money used in this war can also be stored in the bank. "

Except for Kel'Thuzad, no one present understood the meaning of Li De's proposal, and Varian agreed without hesitation.

If Norge Fogg knew, Li De opened a country's urban construction market with only 10,000 gold coins, and he would definitely drop his jaw.
