World of Warcraft: Reviving Stromgarde

Chapter 39 The Cold Alterac Mountains

"Prince Garin, Stannblad was attacked by the Scourge Legion from the Western Plaguelands. The leader seems to be a lich."

Just as Garin Trollbane was about to paddle, Stannbrad, the gateway to Hillsbrad Foothills and the Western Plaguelands, came under attack.

Previously, Garin Trollbane thought that the Scourge would not choose this path due to the influence of the Alterac Mountains, but it happened so suddenly.

Stannblad is controlled by the Syndicate, and due to the surrender of Duke Faculest, the territory of the Syndicate naturally belongs to Garin Trollbane.

As his own territory and one of the gateways to the Hillsbrad Hills, Garin Trollbane naturally could not sit idly by, so he directly took all the main force, 40,000 Stromgarde militia troops, to Stannbrad. .

The fastest way to Stannbraid is to climb directly from the east of Dalaran to the Alterac Mountains, which are covered with snow all year round, and then cross the Alterac Mountains to Stannbrad.

You must know that the people of Stromgarde are no longer the Orange tribe mountain people they once were. They have lived in the warm and humid Arathi Highlands for thousands of years and can no longer adapt to the cold climate of the Alterac Mountains.

However, the geographical location of Stannbrad is very important. If the Kingdom of Stromgard wants to occupy the Hillsbrad Hills, it must control the Alterac Mountains. Once the undead enter the Alterac Mountains, it will be very difficult. It's hard to control.

The undead are resurrected by necromancy magic. They are dead people and will not be cold. In the icy and snowy and intricate terrain of the Alterac Mountains, once the undead natural disaster enters, then the Kingdom of Stromgard needs It can take years or even ten years to clean up.

Before the march, Garin Trollbane summoned the soldiers of the Stromgarde militia. He stood on a high place, facing the 40,000 soldiers of the Stromgarde militia, and told them why they wanted to support Steinbr. Ryder.

"Fighters of the Kingdom of Stromgard, I know you are a little confused as to why we should support Stannblad, so I will tell you the reason.

Our ancestors are the Orange tribe from the Alterac Mountains. The blood of the Orange tribe flows in our bodies. Even though we have lived in the Arathi Highlands for thousands of years, this is still our ancestral land.

After the late King Thoras Trollbane discovered that the Kingdom of Alterac was having an affair with the Horde, he helped the Alliance eliminate the traitor. We, the people of the Kingdom of Stromgard, paid a huge price for fighting against the Horde.

We naturally want to get our ancestral land, after all, the Alterac Mountains once belonged to our ancestors.

However, King Terenas Menethil II of Lordaeron relied on the power of the Kingdom of Lordaeron to steal the land of Hillsbrad Foothills, and our sacrifice was turned a blind eye.

As a former ally, I am willing to help Princess Calia Menethil regain her kingdom.

But I will never give up my claim to this land. The Alterac Mountains belong to us Orange people, to Trollbane, and to the Kingdom of Stromgard!

Before, Stannbrad had secretly sworn to join the Kingdom of Stromgard and obtained my asylum. Now Stannbrad is under attack from the Scourge from the Western Plaguelands.

Doing this is not only to help Stannblad, but also for the Kingdom of Stromgard!

Are you willing to follow me and set foot on the land where your ancestors lived? "

Under Garin Trollbane's impassioned speech, the Stromgarde militia troops were instantly mobilized. They seemed to recall what their parents and elders told them when they were children about how their ancestors, the Orange tribe, had conquered the Ultraman Empire. The story of how to survive in the ice and snow of the Ranke Mountains.

What the Kingdom of Lordaeron did back then is still hated by the Kingdom of Stromgard and the Kingdom of Gilneas, especially the people of the Kingdom of Stromgard, who were clearly the ones who defeated the defected Kingdom of Alterac. , as a result even parts of the eastern Hillsbrad Foothills were unavailable.

The emotionally aroused Stromgarde militia troops responded to their prince, raising their weapons and shouting "For the glory of the Kingdom of Stromgard!"

Only people who have experienced suffering can understand the importance of a strong country. This is the case for the people of the Kingdom of Stromgard. Before the Orc War, the Kingdom of Stromgard was also the top power in the alliance, but now it is in extreme decline.

The once proud people of Stromgarde have come to realize the reality. Only your own strength is the most important. Otherwise, your so-called allies will not help you when you are in the most difficult time, but will only add insult to injury.

Regarding Garin Trollbane's blunt statement that he wanted to occupy Hillsbrad Foothills, the Stromgarde militia troops were all excited. This is what their leader and king should be like.

Since the Kingdom of Lordaeron took advantage of the weakness of the Kingdom of Stromgard to seize the land that should belong to them, this time they will fight for it themselves.

Defending one's family and country can best arouse a man's will. The same is true in this other world of Azeroth. The Stromgarde militia has regarded the Hillsbrad Hills as the land of their Kingdom of Stromgard, so if they invade Steinblade's Scourge Legion was just like when they attacked Thoradin's Wall.

In this way, Garin Trollbane led the Stromgarde militia troops to resolutely set foot on the rugged snow-covered road in the Alterac Mountains.

As altitude rises, the climate becomes colder and the roads become more difficult and rugged.

After the Orange tribe left the Alterac Mountains, many roads disappeared into the ice and snow due to lack of maintenance, and this was the case with the road that Garin Trollbane and his friends took across the Alterac Mountains. There used to be roads here, but thousands of years and the cover of ice and snow made it worthwhile for them to rebuild it with their flesh and blood.

You know, due to the climate of the Arathi Highlands, the Stromgarde militia troops wear simple clothes with standard armor on top. They don't think much of it in other areas of the Hillsbrad Hills with the same mild climate, but when they It's different when you set foot in the Alterac Mountains.

The armor made of steel provided no protection, simple clothes could not keep him warm, and the biting cold wind hung on his face like a knife.

Faced with such an unsuitable situation, the Stromgarde militia remained silent, and so did the female warriors among them. When they set foot on the Alterac Mountains, the blood of the Orange tribe hidden deep in the bloodline began to revive. Walking on the Trunk Mountains, just like our ancestors did thousands of years ago.
