Azeroth Shadow of the Moon

In Andrea's view, Garithos's position is no longer important.

Under the coercion of the alliance army, the baron who proclaimed himself Lordaeron's great general couldn't move an inch, and lost the most suitable time to leave. Now he is just a piece of meat on the cutting board, and sooner or later Calia will kill him.

Don't look at Garithos's army of 100,000, but most of these troops are refugees recruited along the way, and their combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the regular army of the alliance.

And not everyone has such ambitions as Garithers. Knowing that Princess Calia is still alive, many generals temporarily promoted by Garithers quickly fell to the last successor of the Menethil royal family.

Now there is actually only one last obstacle to the restoration of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, the appeal and fate of the Kingdom of Herod.

Countries such as Stormwind Kingdom, Dalaran, Kul Tiras, and Khaz Modan, which have no territorial transfer with Lordaeron, have no intention of taking the initiative to participate in the core level of negotiations. Between and slime.

Prince Varian hopes to take this opportunity to invite the Kingdom of Sirud to return to the alliance and expand the influence and sphere of influence of the alliance.

However, as the de facto leader of the nascent alliance, the Kingdom of Stormwind also had to consider its appeal to Alterac. The point of disagreement between the two sides is how to distribute the benefits.

The Kingdom of Lordaeron, which originally had millions of people, has experienced natural disasters and its population has shrunk significantly. Counting the people who took refuge in the Holy Light's Hope Chapel and the Hand of Tyr, it is estimated that it is barely over a million.

Moreover, the Western Plaguelands, which is an important granary, is dilapidated, and the plague left by natural disasters is everywhere. It is impossible to resume production here within a few years.

This has brought about a very serious problem for Lordaeron. With their population shrinking, they can no longer control the once-large territory. It is inevitable to cede part of the land in exchange for the support of other countries.

The question is, where to cede.

Although Calia did not receive systematic political education from Terenas, she was born in a royal family and learned a little about the big picture.

First of all, the King City of Lordaeron must be taken back absolutely. Only by using the King City as a banner can the citizens who have taken refuge in various places be recalled as much as possible.

After Varian and other leaders of the alliance explained, Calia understood the meaning of the Kingdom of Herod.

They didn't really want to occupy the royal city of Lordaeron, what they wanted was the territory of Tirisfal Glades.

Now that the Eastern Plaguelands have not been brought back, at least one piece of territory in Tirisfal Glades and Western Plaguelands must be in their own hands.

After some weighing, Calia decided to take back the royal city from the Kingdom of Herod first, and ceded part of the territory in the west of Tirisfal Forest near the Silverpine Forest.

In this way, he won the support of the Kingdom of Xilude, and forced the Kingdom of Alterac to covet Andorhal and the Western Plaguelands.

Brunhilde's insinuation to guide Calia to make this choice also has her own intentions.

Although Silverpine Forest is still in the midst of natural disasters, these scattered undead have not caused much harm.

Now that Gilneas himself has gone mad to give up the territory beyond Greymane's Wall, the Kingdom of Silud can just sit back and take it.

But now the territory of the Kingdom of Silud is not directly bordering on the Silverpine Forest, and Lordaeron must be forced to cede part of the territory in the west of the forest to them, so as to avoid becoming an enclave after capturing the territory of the Silverpine Forest.

Although King Barov of Alterac strongly opposed it, Calia finally made up her mind.

Ceded the territory west of Furnace Ash Manor and south of Solidan Farm and Calstone Manor to the Kingdom of Sheldon.

In this way, the Kingdom of Sheldore can directly border Silverpine Forest, and then invade the abandoned territory of Gilneas.

Coincidentally, Silverpine Forest, which borders the Hillsbrad Foothills, is also in the plans of the Kingdom of Alterac.

Calia was determined to take back the royal city first. Although Alex was very unwilling, but after receiving hints from the Kingdom of Silud to seize the territory of Silverpine Forest by their own abilities, Alterac finally chose to give in.

Alterac's army withdrew from Andorhal, and the Alliance helped Lordaeron regain the entire territory of the Western Plaguelands.

Andrea witnessed the signing of the agreement on behalf of the night elves, and made a friendly statement that they would send druids to help the Kingdom of Lordaeron restore the ecology of the Western Plaguelands and revive the once-rich granary.

As for the Eastern Plaguelands, the currently weak Lordaeron is still unable to send troops to take it back, so it can only be handed over to the Scarlet Crusade and Argent Dawn to temporarily maintain the situation.

Although part of the territory of Tirisfal Glades was given up, Lordaeron has at least gained recognition from the countries of the alliance.

Prince Varian personally promised to provide Lordaeron with the materials needed for reconstruction. This can be regarded as a reincarnation, to repay Lordaeron's kindness in supporting the reconstruction of the Stormwind Kingdom.

After the Kingdom of Silud gnawed enough fat, it readily agreed to return to the alliance. Brunhilde and Alex agreed to carve up the Silverpine Forest from the north and the east. How much they can get depends on their own abilities.

Except for the Kingdom of Lordaeron, whose strength has been greatly weakened, Gilneas is actually the most damaged in this exchange of interests.

Varian doesn't like Gilneas, a country that only knows autism, and they are not a member of the alliance now. It was also Genn Greymane's decision to abandon Silverpine Forest.

Relying on the division of the old territories of the Kingdom of Gilneas, the conflict of interests between the Kingdom of Sylud and the Kingdom of Alterac has been quelled, and the situation in the northern part of the eastern continent has basically subsided. In the Plaguelands, they returned to their respective countries first.

Before that, Garithos, who tried to ally himself, must also be dealt with.

After discarding the memories related to Alsace, Calia always believed that she was the crown prince who had been educated by King Terenas since childhood.

With her strong consciousness and active learning, Niyana, who was instructed by Andrea to privately teach her the way to be a king, was very surprised. The princess's progress was too fast.

Some of the generals under Garithos' command were members of the former Knights of the Silver Hand.

These paladins did not join the too conservative Argent Dawn, nor did they lean too aggressively towards the Scarlet Crusade.

They chose to temporarily join Garithos's troops to help this unscrupulous lord break through the natural disaster defenses of the Western Plaguelands, and find a way to regain the king's capital and restore the country.

If Princess Calia didn't show up, as a last resort, they could only choose the most powerful Garithos as the king candidate.

Calia first sent her confidants loyal to the royal family of Menethil to get in touch with these generals, and told them the dangers of Garithos's self-respect.

These ex-Silver Hand generals who were born as paladins were already dissatisfied with Garithos' domineering style of conduct, and his views on humanism were also an unavoidable cancer for open and fair paladins.

After receiving the olive branch from the future queen, they turned to Calia without much hesitation.

The highest of these paladins was named Mograine, Alexandros Mograine.

Due to the change of the world line, Mograine is not the Ashbringer at this time, but he still has a strong military command ability and combat effectiveness.

Under Mograine's public appeal, Garithos's soldiers who were still in a state of swing threw themselves into the arms of the royal family in large numbers.

Garithos had already understood his situation, and he couldn't even sleep well at night.

When he heard a commotion in his barracks, Garithos, who was sleeping in his clothes, immediately got up and prepared to escape.

But it was too late to leave at this time, and high-ranking generals such as Mograine and Fairbanks surrounded Garithers' tent tightly.

Andrea stood on the broken wall of Lordaeron's royal city and witnessed Garithos, who was unwilling to roar, being tied up and taken away by his soldiers.

The situation in the Eastern Continent has finally calmed down, and there should be a period of peace in the future.
