It must be mentioned that although there are some conflicts between Uther and Turalyon, Uther is Uther after all.

This noble Paladin abides by his duties and the creed of the Paladin, and will keep all dissatisfaction in his heart. As the commander of the Silver Hand and a member of the Alliance, he will not do anything to disobey orders because of this.

However, it is an indisputable fact that Turayan, an alliance adjutant who was somewhat eager to express himself, had a bad effect on himself because of what he just said.

Just when Turalyon finished speaking and Lothar was about to ask other people for their opinions, Falstad Wildhammer, the Wildhammer dwarf king and now one of the temporary generals, spoke angrily.

"Well, can anyone explain to me what would happen if the orcs did not attack Thoradin's Wall, but entered the Hinterlands via the Alterac Mountains?"

Wildhammer Dwarf's Eagle's Nest Mountain is located in the Hinterlands, and Zastad is naturally concerned about this matter.

Then, everyone's eyes turned to Hillvanas.

Hillvanas shrugged and said: "In fact, compared to Thoradin's Wall, it would be more in line with my wishes if the tribe entered the Hinterlands."

As soon as she finished speaking, Falstad immediately became anxious. Wasn't this a plan to trick their Wildhammer dwarf? He was about to refute, but was stopped by Ye Ting.

"Listen to her." Ye Ting said calmly.

You don’t have to give other people’s face, but Falstad still has to give it to Ye Ting, a big magician. Although the news about the red dragon and the guardian dragon had not spread, Falstad had already heard about Ye Ting from his younger brother Kudlan, which raised Ye Ting's status in his eyes again.

That is a person who is favored by the Dragons and cannot be offended.

Nodding to Ye Ting, Hillvanas continued: "In fact, if the magician of Lever did not lead the army to eliminate the trolls in the Hinterland, I would not dare to say such a thing. But it is different now. , we can see that the Hinterlands and the large land in its north are dense forests and complex mountains. Except for the Wildhammer dwarf in the Eagle's Nest Mountain, there are basically no human habitations. For the Alliance, this is ours Natural dangers, but for the tribes, these forests and mountains are difficult obstacles to deal with. To cross these complex terrains to attack the hinterland of the alliance, the time and food required for the huge tribes are astronomical. On the one hand The Alliance can fully weaken the tribe in this forest and mountains through geographical and supply advantages. On the other hand, we can also get a breathing space. As for Eagle's Nest Mountain, the terrain there is more dangerous than Stromgarde, and it is almost as dangerous as Ironforge. Compared to the fort, the orcs simply cannot capture this place, and will instead fall into a war of attrition, so why not?"

Even Falstad had to admit that Hillvanas' words made sense. However, the person present at the moment admired the most not Hillvanas, but Ye Ting, who had basically not spoken a word.

Although Hillvanas's strategy could be called sophisticated and impeccable, upon hearing this, they suddenly realized that it was the magician in front of them who actually caused this favorable situation.

He had anticipated this possibility long before the war officially started, so he joined forces with humans, high elves and the Wildhammer dwarf clan in advance to encircle and suppress almost all the trolls in the eastern part of the Lordaeron continent.

Originally, the alliance generally believed that the main purpose of his behavior was to train troops and win over high elf allies.

But now, they discovered Ye Ting's biggest purpose.

If the trolls are still there, then the Hinterlands will become a breakthrough point for the alliance. With these natives of Lordaeron here, the tribe can run rampant in the Hinterlands and even further north in Zul'Aman and Silvermoon with just a little traction. forest, and without any scruples, went around to the rear of the Alliance to attack Quel'Thalas and the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

However, after the trolls were encircled and suppressed, the Hinterlands transformed and became an obstacle for the tribe to attack the alliance, and the alliance's natural line of defense against the tribe.

How far-sighted it is to be able to consider everything before the war and respond in advance.

For a time, Ye Ting became much more mysterious in people's eyes.

Hillvanas' proposal was undoubtedly approved by most people, but Uther still raised a question that needed to be faced: What to do about Stromgarde? Should Thor Bane, an ally of Thor Bane, just let it go?

In response, Hillvanas just smiled and looked at Ye Ting again.

"Let our war advisor, Livda Magician, who just returned from Admiral Daelin's fleet, answer this question.

——This guy actually caused trouble for me again.

Ye Ting rolled his eyes at Hillvanas, and then said helplessly: "Actually, we can use sea transportation.

"Sea transportation?" Lothar's eyes lit up.

"That's right. Not only do we need to use maritime defense to support Stromgarde, but we also need to do it with great fanfare in front of the tribe." Ye Ting nodded and explained.

"As we all know, Admiral Daelin's fleet almost wiped out the entire Horde fleet near Zul'Dere Island. Now the alliance's maritime power has no rivals, and Stromgarde happens to be close to the sea. Although there are high cliffs there, Transportation can be completed by building a pulley transport device with a simple mechanical structure. The cliff is not an obstacle to sea support. Through sea transportation, we can constantly deliver supplies and soldiers to Stromgarde, and we can also evacuate civilians for them. In this way, the rapids The fort will become a thorn in the Alliance's back in the Arathi Highlands. Not only will the Horde not be able to capture it, but they will also have to be prepared for us to cooperate internally and externally, counterattack the Arathi Highlands through Stromgarde, occupy the Sador Bridge, and cut off their escape route."

*

"Wonderful, wonderful." Lothar heard this and couldn't help but clapped his hands and praised: "After the tribe understands that we can support Stromgarde from the sea, they will definitely give up the plan to capture Stromgarde, and they will have to pay enough defense for this. Strength, in this way, we can contain a large number of tribes' troops without spending too much. It is really a good plan.

In this way, the basic combat policy is roughly determined.

However, Ye Ting suddenly made another suggestion.

"No matter what the strategy is, we still have to fight head-on with the tribe.

"Why is this?" Ye Ting's words seemed to refute the opinions he and Hillvanas had just expressed, causing Lothar to be puzzled.

Hillvanas glared at him fiercely.

"Because the most important thing for us now is morale," Ye Ting sighed and answered, "No matter how sophisticated our strategy is and how advantageous we are, in fact, only our commanders know these advantages, but ordinary soldiers What? They only know that orcs are scary, especially after coming to Stromgard. The fiasco of Stromgard and the rumors of death knights have made them fear the orcs. If they want them to fight in the next The most important thing to do in the war is to win a head-on war, so that at least some soldiers can see the real orcs with their own eyes and tell them that the tribe is not invincible... In this way, the next strategy can be effective .”

Ye Ting's words undoubtedly reminded everyone present like an enlightenment.

As veteran generals in the army, they basically understand the importance of the ten qi.

However, the strength of the orcs' individual soldiers and the emergence of extraordinary forces such as death knights diverted their attention to dealing with these troubles. Instead, they intentionally or unintentionally ignored the most basic links.

Two updates today and one update tomorrow.
