Boxes were carried out by the Rotterdam guards.
Zeon waved his hand. "This is the map of the Alliance's military deployment around the Alterac Mountains. There's also their pledge of loyalty to Orgrim. Oh, there's also the pledge of loyalty from all the Alterac nobles led by Pirinod. "
Duke Barov's hands were trembling as he picked up a document.
He had nothing to say because the Barov Family was in charge of the logistics of the entire Alterac Mountains. On the other hand, because he deliberately did not decide on an absolute successor, and wanted his two sons to compete for it, it caused his subordinates to split up, each supporting a certain prince.
It was hard to guard against a thief in the family.
Even the higher-ups of the Barov Family who gave the map to Wilton and the Alex brothers did not expect them to betray their father long ago. Duke Barov also did not expect that the first mastermind was the dead Eden. He had used these two rebellious sons to get information. After the two brothers left for the tribe, these things fell into Orgrim's hands.
There was no way to explain that these maps were indeed leaked by the Barov Family.
Even if it wasn't sh * t, it would still be sh * t.
The guards of the royal family of the Rotterdam Kingdom passed the iron-clad evidence to each of the kings. Even if they knew about this long ago, and even if it had been a long time ago, when they saw the signatures of the Alterac nobles, they still felt an indescribable anger.
It was not just the kings. Only two attendants were allowed to stand behind each seat, and they had the same expression as their master.
Of course, there were exceptions.
The three commanders, Andoine, Duque, and Mograine, had their own seats. Unexpectedly, Andoine and Laing had brought Legolas and the other three that Duque had invited.
Behind Duque were Ilusia and Aurelia.
Last night, Duque had insisted that Duke Barov let Ilusia follow him. Duke Barov now understood.
Ilusia's body was trembling slightly. She could fully understand how her father, who was being condemned by everyone at this moment, was being interrogated and tortured mentally.
"You two, tell me everything you know. This is your final salvation. "Jean waved his hand.
Therefore, this pair of bastard brothers vividly told the 'truth' that they knew. In their words, the Barov family had pledged their loyalty to the Horde even earlier than Eden Piraeus, in order to prevent their rich territory from being affected by the flames of war.
However, the Barov Family's way of doing things was smarter and more in line with the style of nobles. That was to bet on both sides. As the only two heirs of the Barov Family at that time, they first went to Orgrim to gain his trust. Prince Barov, on the other hand, stood aloof and unyielding.
In this way, no matter if the Alliance won or if the Horde destroyed the Alliance, the glory of the Barov Family would continue.
Two sides, aren't they?
However, this was indeed the style of a businessman.
And the Barov family was such a family with a strong merchant atmosphere.
There were witnesses, material evidence, motive, precedent, and background. Everything made sense.
At this moment, almost all the kings believed it.
Even King Dai Lingguo looked at Duque suspiciously. On the other side, if not for Duque's warning, even King Laing would have believed it. However, even Laing was skeptical.
If it wasn't for the fact that he had never done such a thing before, even Alex Barov himself would have believed it.
The old duke's heart sank into a bottomless, icy hell. He looked at his two sons, who had become greedy due to their lack of discipline, and allowed themselves to be manipulated by those clever politicians. Suddenly, he laughed maniacally.
"Hahahaha! Hahahahaha — "
Loud and unbridled laughter reverberated throughout the entire throne room.
"What are you laughing at, you despicable traitor!" King Jean scolded.
"No! I'm just laughing at myself. I gave birth to my sons, but because of the family business, I did not teach them well. In the end, they turned into two super bastards! "
"Old man, watch your mouth!"
"We are both traitors of the Alliance. What right do you have to laugh at me?!"
Faced with the scolding of his two sons, Duke Barov's laughter grew colder and colder. He looked at his sons as if he was looking at two dead men. "Foolish sons! Do you think those greedy bastards who are after Alterac's land will honor their promise to you two idiots? Honor? Maybe they will. But if they give you the property and land today, they can take it back next year with a random excuse and send you to the gallows. No one would really protect two traitors of the Alliance! "
The old duke hit the nail on the head and told the truth, which really made the two stupid sons shiver.
Jean suddenly felt that the situation was getting out of hand. He turned to look at Terenas.
Terenas knew that this was all the sly old fox Jean was willing to do. He glanced at the expressionless Duque and pretended to stand up.
"Alright! Since His Majesty Grameen has presented the evidence that Duke Barov is a traitor of the Alliance, do you have anything to say? Or rather, Duke, do you have any evidence to prove your innocence? "
Evidence?
How could there be any evidence to prove his innocence in such a matter?
It was as stupid as asking you to prove that your mother was your mother.
Duke Barov trembled. He knew that if King Guinevere and King Lordaeron dared to plot against him, they would not leave any loopholes. In front of these two absolute rulers, a duke who was not even a king was just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
In fact, his two idiotic sons had indeed joined the Horde.
He did not look at Duque. From the moment Duque refused to cooperate, he no longer had any hope that Duque would help him. His only hope was that Duque could protect Ilusia …
The old duke raised his head proudly. "King Menethil, you win."
"What do you mean I win?" Terenas said shamelessly. "This is the Alliance, and we value fairness and justice. If there is enough evidence, even the testimony of a king can be overturned. "
Ilusia, who was standing beside Duque, could not hold it in any longer. She slowly reached out with trembling hands and tugged on the sleeve of Duque's robe.
One second later, at this unexpected moment, Duque suddenly raised his right hand and requested to speak.
Terenas' heart skipped a beat, but he pretended to be calm. "Sir Marcus?"
Duque smiled. "I would like to interrogate the Horde's Great Chief Orgrim. I would like to hear from him whether he captured the Barov brothers in the Alterac Palace, or whether he received help from the two brothers. "
