Duque used a disguise called makeup, but unfortunately, the disguise technology in this era was too poor. In the end, he still went to the meeting with big panda eyes.
The group of kings were all laughing.
The current Dalajan was not the same as the Floating City in the future. The Dalajan City was located on the southern shore of Lake Lordamir, and there was still a lot of space.
However, even though every State Guesthouse was a standalone villa, for safety reasons, they were all in the same district. Last night, Duque's side was so noisy that a certain Windrunner's second son used a Thunder Arrow. It was impossible not to let others know.
Of course, because no one deliberately asked about it, not many people cared about Duque's private affairs. Everyone just thought that Duque's ship had failed.
With Duque's current status, it was not a big deal if he failed. No one thought that Duque would have a relationship that crossed races. For example, almost everyone knew about Dai Lin and the female Elf Mage called Gina Goldsword. So what?
In the eyes of the High Nobles, lovers were just a matter of taste. As long as the wife wasn't of the same social status, she wouldn't be able to show off in public. Speaking of which, at Duque's level, there were not many women who were good enough for Duque. All the kings looked at Duque with a playful expression, as if they wanted to see which family's princess or Grand Duke's daughter Duque would marry in the end.
The Alliance King's Meeting naturally prioritized business.
After everyone arrived, they immediately started a tense discussion.
Turayan first introduced the situation. "The Horde's message delivery is obviously much slower than the Alliance's. After losing the Red Dragon Army's assistance, the Horde lost all means of rapid communication. Even now, the 100,000 Horde entrenched on the east side of the Wall of Thoradin still have no signs of retreating. According to our estimates, the Wolf Cavalry messengers from Grim Batol Fortress will only arrive at the frontlines of the Wall of Thoradin tonight, or even tomorrow morning at the earliest. "
King Solas Trollbane, who was the most nervous, immediately slammed his fist on the map table. "What are we waiting for? We need to launch an all-out attack before these green-skinned creatures escape. We need to wipe them out in the Arathi Highlands!"
As the newly born ruler of a fallen kingdom, Solas was the most nervous of them all. On the contrary, Laing, whose country had been subjugated for a year, seemed even calmer. Of course, in terms of the desire to restore the country, the two kings were equally matched.
However, Solas's proposal did not receive much support from the other rulers or representatives.
Everyone could see the decline of the Horde, and the recovery of the Arathi Highlands was a sure thing. The question was how and at what cost.
In the Alliance, every country had their own political and economic demands. Everyone knew that they had to defeat the Horde, or else no one would have a good time. Unfortunately, after fighting for so long, even a rich country like the Rotterdam Kingdom felt the pinch, let alone the weaker countries.
Just as Solas' face turned livid, Andoine said, "The price to pay is too high. Should we consider waiting for the Horde at the frontlines to receive the news of the collapse of the rear, and launch an all-out attack while their morale is down? We can chase after the Horde's butts, just like chasing rabbits. That would be much easier. "
As soon as Andoine's voice fell, a few kings of the Alliance immediately agreed.
Unfortunately, the Bronze-bearded Dwarves of Khaz Modan did not agree. After confirming that the Horde was defeated in the wetlands, Muradin Bronzebeard, who had rushed over on his Gryphon, grumbled, "Hey hey! Are you sure you can annihilate these hundreds of thousands of Orcs in the Arathi Highlands? Don't chase all the Orcs back to Khaz Modan after you've had your fun chasing rabbits. Then we Bronze-bearded Dwarves will be in trouble! "
Kudran Wildhammer naturally chimed in, "Yes! The Arathi Highlands and the wetlands are fine, but once we enter the mountains of Khaz Modan, the power of our Gryphons will be greatly reduced. "
Andoine stole a glance at Duque, and saw that Duque nodded slightly. He immediately felt confident. "Then we can make some slight changes. With the Dalajan Mage's Teleportation Spell and the transportation of the Gryphon Knights, we can send about 2,000 elites to Torrential Fortress. Then, this group of elites will quickly march east and regain control of the position on the north bank of Sador Bridge. Then, we can …"
Andoine smacked his fist against his palm.
Everyone knew that this was like catching a turtle in a jar.
King Sauras immediately perked up. Even though he knew that this would be a costly operation, the benefits of this operation were obvious. The Horde would completely lose the last organized frontline army. "Torrential Fortress can send 400 knights!"
"Stormwind can send 300 knights," King Laing added.
"Alterac can send 200 knights." The one who spoke was General Haas. Even though the Alterac Kingdom only existed in name, this great soldier had been working hard to wash away the shame of the badge on his chest.
"Kurtiras can send 200 elite soldiers who are familiar with the operation of the ballistae." Daelin also added. Of course, it could be said that the remaining human ballistae in the northern position could be used. However, his positive response still surprised the leaders of the other countries. Since the start of the war, Kurtiras had been acting like he only cared about the navy.
The two dwarves looked at each other. "The dwarves can send 300 secret room guards!"
"Cuel Salas can send 300 rangers!"
King Terenas could not sit still anymore. He gritted his teeth and said, "Rotterdam can send 500 knights."
This time, it was the ten countries of the Alliance. Every country had sent troops.
After some discussion, Lothar, who was the best at fighting, personally led the team. They changed from a simple airborne landing to a ground assault team to directly attack Sador Bridge. This was because they could still go straight to Torrential Fortress from Southshore along the beach on the east coast.
King Solas swore that there was a secret passage in Torrential Fortress that led directly to Sador Bridge. Hence, the plan eventually became a commando team of 5,000 people to block the escape route of the tribe. Then, Mograine would lead the 200,000 human troops to attack from the front, trapping the tribe from the front and back.
Originally, the Alliance's army on the west side of the Wall of Thoradin had always been in a state of combat readiness. Even their rations had been packed long ago, so it did not take long to prepare. On the contrary, the planning of the commando team caused a lot of brain cells to die.
The leaders of the various countries had already intentionally or unintentionally ignored Duque, because Duque's contributions were too great. Who knew that Duque had secretly made his presence known.
When Andoine and Laing privately asked Duque about the plan, Duque nonchalantly said, "You guys go ahead and fight. If you can't, I'll be the backup."
"What kind of protection?"
"I'll ask the Red Dragon Army to wash the ground with dragon breath!"
"Pfft!" Andoine and Laing both spat.
