It had to be said that Terenas Menethil II's combat power was almost equal to zero, but his political value was definitely 100.
While the king was still alive and kicking, he made a subordinate of the king the commander-in-chief of the seven kingdoms. What else could it be if it wasn't an attempt to drive a wedge between the seven kingdoms?
Of course, Terenas also said in a dignified manner, "Since our ancestors once gathered under the flag of Thoradin The Great more than 2,000 years ago, let us, the new alliance, look up to the same flag."
After all, the seven kingdoms were of the same origin, and Lothar was indeed the best flag.
Clayon was also a king with supreme boldness and magnanimity. While Lothar was hesitating, Clayon agreed immediately.
"Don't hesitate! Andoine! You are our hope of reviving our kingdom! From the moment we left Stormwind City, didn't we swear together that we would revive Stormwind no matter what? Have you forgotten our oath? "
"But I …"
"Don't care about those empty titles. You are still the loyal you, and I am still the me who believes in you. Even if you don't believe in yourself, you have to at least believe in me, who has always believed in you. As long as our will and beliefs do not change, why should we care about the lies of others? Besides, if it's you, so what if I give the throne to you? I believe that if Stormwind is in your hands, it will also stand tall among the nations of the world. "
His words were very serious, so serious that it made all the sowing of discord lose its meaning. Moreover, he said it in front of the kings of the alliance. If Anduin Lothar was really a despicable person, it would not be impossible for him to seize the throne of Stormwind with the testimony of the kings.
Clayon's words caused all the kings to be moved.
However, these words that were almost tongue twister expressed Laing's most sincere and complete trust. It was a supreme trust that surpassed life and the inheritance of his children.
"No, no …" Lothar had wanted to refuse, but after seeing Laing's passionate and sincere eyes, his heart softened a little. After thinking for a moment, Lothar said, "Then, Laing, I hope to become a duke, at least as the Duke of Stormwind …"
Lothar was interrupted before he could finish.
"No no no." King Terenas walked over. Although he was under the gaze of the other kings, his voice was so soft that Lothar and Laing were sure that they were the only two people who could hear him. Terenas explained, "Trust me, as a king, a duke of another kingdom and a knight of another kingdom walking around my territory, these are definitely two different mental states."
That's right, in the eyes of the kings, knights were insignificant, but dukes were the pillars of the country.
Lothar's eyelids twitched.
"Perhaps you might think that I'm trying to sow discord between you and your subjects, but unfortunately, this is the only choice." The ruler of Lordaeron continued to explain in a low voice, "Every king wants to deal with their tribe's problems on their own. At the same time, they are very reluctant to see another king enter their territory. Sir Lothar, you are not a king, and your position is not high, so they don't think you can gain anything from this. On the other hand, the nobility of your bloodline is enough for them to not think that they will be looked down upon by other kings. "
After thinking about it again and again, Lothar finally nodded. "Alright, I accept the position of commander of the Alliance."
Lothar's voice had always been loud, and his acceptance made many kings heave a sigh of relief.
Terenas raised his head and arms. "Then, I declare that all disputes in the Lordaeron Alliance are over! We will fight side by side, just like our ancestors did in the Arathor Empire. "
After confirming that every king had nodded, Terenas continued, "Now, the only one who is suitable to lead our army, the one who inherited the bloodline of Thoradin The Great, Sir Anduin Lothar, has agreed. So, the kings of the Alliance hereby announce that Sir Anduin Lothar, the general of Stormwind City, will be our supreme commander! The armies sent by each of our kingdoms must listen to his orders. Those who disobey will be punished severely in the name of the descendants of Arathor! "
The last obstacle to forming the Alliance was finally cleared.
As Terenas's voice fell, the throne room, which had been noisy for several days, was finally filled with thunderous applause.
Perhaps this was the roar of applause because they had a common enemy.
Perhaps it was because they had the same bloodline.
No matter what the motive was, it was not important. What was important was that this marked the reunification of mankind after thousands of years of division. It was not only the humans, but also the dwarves. This pan-human alliance had finally shown its sharp claws and teeth to the invaders.
The 13th of October, the first year of the Dark Portal.
It was the dawn of the day, and the morning fog covered the land as usual. The citizens of Lordaeron, who were still sleepy, stretched and started a new day of activities.
Perhaps they were preparing to harvest food, or preparing to open their shops.
Although they could not see the first rays of dawn, the people in the city knew that a new day had arrived. The light fog enveloped their beautiful brick and wood houses, and also covered the wide streets of the capital with a thin layer of gauze.
Even so, this was still the beautiful Lordaeron that they were familiar with. Everything in their sight, the sounds in their ears, and the calm atmosphere of the city, everything was the same as before.
But the next moment, as the messenger cavalry shouted along the street, everything was different.
They shouted as they galloped. This was a method of spreading news that was only used when there was news of victory. It had been many years since the citizens of Lordaeron had encountered this method.
Yes, the last time was when the heir of King Terenas, Prince Arthas, was born.
On this day, every citizen of Lordaeron heard this news.
"In order to deal with the increasingly rampant Orcs! Lordaeron, the seven human kingdoms, and the Dwarf Kingdom of Khaz Modan have formed a pan-human alliance — the Lordaeron Alliance. The leader of the alliance will be King Terenas Menethil II of Lordaeron. The supreme commander of the alliance will be the direct descendant of Thoradin The Great, the noble Sir Anduin Lothar! All allies must send troops, money, and manpower for Lothar to use! "
"The most revered Archbishop of the Holy Light, Alonsos Faol, announces that the Lordaeron Alliance is the representative of justice. The Church of Holy Light will join the alliance in the form of a church, and give every soldier of the alliance the blessing of the Holy Light and supreme courage."
Within three days, this news spread like it had wings, and the entire world of humans and dwarves was excited!
