Crossing the Other World: My Warcraft System
Chapter 764 Thranduil Returns to His Hometown
There were not many people, and only about 10,000 high elves were captured and brought before Arthas.
These were the slow ones. When the Travelers retreated from the gate of Sarath, the High Elf nobles stranded in the forest who were well-informed simply abandoned their manors and fled north.
The unlucky ones were the villagers who were bewitched by the nobles and stayed.
They knelt before Arthas, and whether voluntarily or forced, were infused with blood and shadow energy by Arthas and transformed into a new race: the Sarain.
However, the Scourge's gains in the South Song of Song Forest were far from making up for its previous losses. Fighting to support the war is based on the premise that benefits can be gained after each battle. If there are losses every time, then there is no need for the Scourge to exist.
Soon, news came from an insider among the High Elves who had defected to the Lich King that the main force of the High Elves was in the Temple of the Sun!
Alsace marched north.
In terms of the source of troops, the worst undead warriors in the Scourge are skeletons and mindless zombies. Most of them are transformed from rotten corpses, and they don't even have intelligence. They only have some fighting instincts. Their biggest function is to consume the enemy's ammunition and magic power.
The best source of soldiers are the living. After killing them, they can be pulled back up using dark magic. With fresh flesh and blood, they can retain more power of death in their bodies, and their combat effectiveness will be stronger.
The best ones are the warriors among the living. They have strong bodies when they are alive and have a high chance of transforming into Death Knights!
The Death Knights are the backbone of the Scourge, and each one of them is used as a commander.
Because of Garen's various backup plans in Lordaeron, not many powerful nobles in Lordaeron died. They were the backbone of the surviving towns.
The powerful nobles are not the corrupt nobles in the royal city. They own fiefdoms, and within the fiefdoms they have power comparable to that of the king. In order to continue their family, they must have strength.
If you want to protect your territory, strength is a prerequisite. This is a rule recognized by these nobles.
Those who have a talent for spellcasting can practice the arcane arts, and those who don't have the ability can just become warriors and practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies. Isn't it enough to just have money and hands?
However, when the profession of Paladin appeared ten years ago, a large number of noble warriors tried to switch to become Paladins. After all, they can cast spells!
It was precisely because these nobles who became peripheral members of the Silver Hand or knights' squires were willing to listen to Garin's advice that they survived.
As one side gained strength while the other lost strength, Arthas was short of manpower. Not only were the Knights of the Ebon Blade still in the planning stage, but the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse were nowhere to be seen.
Arthas's purpose in searching for the main force of the High Elves was to try to use the Sea of Undead to surround and kill the main force of the High Elves, and select strong corpses from them to transform them into more Death Knights.
While Arthas was taking action, the High Elves were not idle either. Silvermoon City was calm on the surface. Even though it had gathered hundreds of thousands of people from outside the city, this magical city still did not appear chaotic or crowded.
The square in front of the Sunfury Tower in the Sun Chaser's Court was filled with fully armed soldiers.
There is the last trump card of the Sun Chaser family: the Lawbreakers, and two legions of the Royal Party: the Fire Wing Legion and the Guard Legion.
They were newly established legions ten years ago. Thanks to Tol'garin and Kael'thas' outstanding military achievements, the royalists took command of the two new legions.
With the two new legions, the Sunfury Legion, the Eclipse Legion, and the rising Knights of Dawn, the royal party was able to break free from its suppressed state and gradually compete with the parliament.
In addition to the High Elves' army, there is also a human army, and judging by the flag, it belongs to the Crusaders of Stromgarde.
Red Flame Legion.
The legion that Garin first established has now been transformed through job transfer and now has 5,000 seventh-level elite infantry, 3,000 seventh-level hunters, 500 ninth-level knight commanders, and 500 seventh-level priests.
Eight thousand high-level soldiers, this strength is enough to serve as the ace army of any country.
And his leader is a high elf.
Thranduil Sunstrider.
When Thranduil left the Arctic and appeared in the Sunfury Tower, Anasterian did not believe that he was a branch of the Sunstrider family, even though he knew most of the royal secrets and was familiar with all the magic circles in the Sunstrider court.
However, when the Fire Phoenix appeared, the Sun King was convinced. This was more convincing than a blood test!
Ten thousand years ago, in an era even older than Dath'Remar, the ancestors of the Sun Chaser signed a blood contract with a demigod-level Phoenix Lord from the Fire Realm. Since then, any descendant of the Sun Chaser with outstanding talents can summon their own phoenix!
Currently, Anasterian has it, Kael'thas has it, but those branches with thin bloodlines don't have it...
Thranduil was recognized by Anasterian directly because of his ability to summon the phoenix. If Thranduil had not refused on the spot on the grounds that he had long since renounced the nationality of the High Elf Kingdom, he would have been recognized as the Sun King's cousin and be crowned as a prince.
You are my grandson, but you want to be my brother?
"The Crusader Lord's army is truly elite..."
Anasterian looked at the 8,000-man Red Flame Army and said with admiration, "As expected of the person foreseen in the ancestor's will."
Thranduil didn't know whether his grandson was really sighing or just testing him. It didn't matter. The corruption of the high elves shocked him. He could only perfunctorily say, "There are ten such legions in the Crusaders!"
Thranduil glanced at the shocked Sun King and continued:
"At first, I thought that the Galen that the ancestors mentioned was Galen'remar, the night elf hero from ten thousand years ago. It was not until Prince Galen of Stromgarde rose to prominence that I was sure that the man the ancestors mentioned had nothing to do with the night elves. So after the Council of Tirisfal was destroyed, I joined the Crusaders, hoping to observe Prince Galen up close."
Anasterian nodded, agreeing with the words of his cousin who suddenly appeared. He had a hard time connecting the Child of Prophecy with the Prince of Stromgarde until Kael'thas spent 100,000 gold coins to buy Galen's scroll...
From that time on, the Prince of Stromgarde came into the Sun King's sight, and his every move in the Orc War was placed on his desk by the Sundial Spy.
By analyzing this information, the Sun King always felt that every move of the orcs was predicted by Garin, and he was always able to stay one step ahead of the orc chieftain and destroy all the orcs' strategic goals.
And every time he deployed troops, combined with the troops from other alliance countries, they were always on par with the Orc Tribe!
This feeling……
It's like training troops!
That's right!
Training!
