Crossing Azeroth, starting with the Heroes of Might and Magic system

Originally, Varian wanted to lead a troop to destroy Griselda and Turok's troops, but after thinking about it, he realized that the residents of Goldshire had basically evacuated, and these two troops could not cause much harm for the time being.

Attacking them now would only result in wasted manpower.

And, more importantly, Varian knew that Griselda Blackhand would eventually die, killed by people sent by her own father.

In the original book, the orc Griselda Blackhand and the ogre Tullok were together, loved each other, and fought against Chieftain Blackhand together. Together they built fortifications in the Deadmines.

Chieftain Blackhand believed that his daughter Griselda's union with the ogre was an insult to the Blackrock Clan, so he personally sentenced her to death and sent Orgrim to assassinate her.

Alas, in this world of Azeroth, sons kill fathers, daughters kill fathers, and fathers kill daughters. It happens all the time.

There are several human sons who kill their fathers. Arthas of the Kingdom of Lordaeron is very famous. She became the Lich Queen and used the famous Frostmourne to stab her father, King Terenas, to death with a single sword.

There is also Galen Trollbane of the Kingdom of Stromgarde, who killed his father, King Thoras Trollbane.

Renault Mograine killed his father, Alexandros Mograine.

There is also the famous Jaina Proudmoore, who killed her father, Admiral Daelin Proudmoore of the Kingdom of Kul Tiras, in order to protect the orcs.

There is also the Bleeding Hollow orc, Kilrogg Deadeye, who also killed his father.

Sometimes I really feel that this world is too chaotic and too crazy.

Griselda's orc army and Turok's ogre army did not carry much food, and by the time they arrived near Goldshire, there was very little food left.

Just as they were beginning to worry about food, Griselda suddenly said, "Tulloch, look ahead!"

Turok listened and looked in the direction Griselda pointed, and indeed saw many human houses.

Looking at the large number of human buildings in front of him, Tulock was very happy. He knew that this was a large human town. As long as it was a large town, it must have a large amount of food stored. However, the defense of these towns was not strong and it was impossible to withstand the attack of ogres and orcs.

Turok said: "Great! This is really timely!"

So Turok decided to personally command the ogre army and rush into Goldshire to plunder humans.

After some discussion, Griselda led the orc troops to attack from the right, and Turok led the ogre troops to attack from the left.

They decided to kill all the human soldiers, drive out the human residents, and rob all the food in the town.

The two armies quickly rushed into Shanjin Town from both sides.

Strangely, neither force encountered any obstruction.

It was not until they entered the town that they discovered that Goldshire was empty. Not only had all the residents moved to Stormwind City, there was not even a grain of food left.

This dealt a heavy blow to Turok's morale.

So Griselda and Tulloch decided that if they followed the road north, they would surely find a human settlement.

Fortunately, Elwynn Forest is rich in resources. There are a large number of stone-skinned boars, mangy wolves, rabbits, and deer in the forest. The ogres and orcs almost caught all the prey on both sides of the road, which was barely enough to fill their stomachs.

They walked north along the road and soon arrived at Northshire Abbey.

Fortunately, they did not take the wrong road. There were two roads to the north of Goldshire, one leading to Northshire Abbey and the other leading to Stormwind City.

If they reached Stormwind City, with their army of several thousand people, they would definitely be trapped and die without a burial place.

An army of more than 8,000 orcs and ogres broke the tranquility of the Northshire Valley.

The large army quickly passed through the walls of the Northshire Valley and arrived in front of the monastery.

At this time, there were only a few guards and a group of priests in Northshire Abbey.

The guards of the monastery also saw the green-skinned orcs for the first time. After sending out a warning signal, they were about to say something to the orcs, but they only heard Turok shouting: "Kill them! Take the food!"

The ogre soldiers and orc soldiers who received the order rushed into the monastery like hungry tigers.

Faced with the aggressive orc and ogre troops, the people in the monastery were simply unable to resist.

Soon the priest and the guards killed twenty or thirty of them.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Bishop Natalie hurried to the top floor of the monastery and flew towards Stormwind City on royal griffins with several priests.

These royal griffins were left to her by Varian to save her life, and there were only five of them in total.

This means that in Northshire Abbey, except for Bishop Natalie and five others who escaped, all the others have died at the hands of orcs and ogres.

Fortunately, Bishop Natalie followed Varian's advice and moved many valuable items to Stormwind City. Now there are still some food and daily necessities left in Northshire Monastery.

The ogre soldiers searched the monastery and finally found the monastery's food storage room, which contained a large amount of food.

Tulock was very excited when he found the food. The food stored here was enough for them to last for four or five days, otherwise they would run out of food and ammunition.

They then searched the nearby farms and finally found a large vineyard on a farm east of the monastery, but the grapes were not yet ripe.

If the grapes were ripe, it would not be their turn! The residents would have already arranged to pick them up.

However, these unripe grapes have made the orcs and ogres very happy. They can be eaten even if they are unripe, which is much better than starving to death.

So, under Turok's instructions, a group of ogres and orcs rushed into the vineyard and ate the unripe grapes with open appetite.

The vineyard was very large. Although there were more than eight thousand orcs and ogres combined, even if they devoured as much as they could, they could not eat up even one twentieth of the vineyard.

Turok said, "Can these raw grapes be made into raisins and taken away?"

Griselda said, "You are stupid. Grapes need to be dried for dozens of days to be made into raisins. If you stay here for dozens of days, the humans will have brought a large army here. After you finish eating, take the food in the monastery and leave."

When Tulock heard this, he thought it made sense. He had seen Bishop Natalie and her men flying away on griffins just now, and he would definitely report it to the human army.

So Tulloch shouted, "Soldiers, eat as much as you can, because after you finish eating, we have to move on."
