When Rotterdam expressed its opinion on whether there was a need to build a Watchtower, all the countries here eagerly agreed and sent their most elite troops. The Dwarves and Gnomes contributed to the construction of the railway, while the Stormwind Kingdom contributed the most infantry.
Terenas didn't even understand what a train was, but they were already voting for it.
At the end of the day, the group of kings only recited what they had discussed last night like reciting a book.
After a few rounds, it was settled!
Looking at the overwhelming atmosphere in the alliance, they didn't even need to vote. In front of the absolute majority, the two votes of the leader were useless.
Terenas couldn't suppress his anger at all. This was betrayal! This was a collective rebellion!
Lordaeron's power!
Lordaeron's right to speak!
In one night, it was completely taken away!
At this moment, Terenas even wanted to disband the alliance.
But he couldn't say 'no'.
They didn't leave the alliance, and the countries were discussing serious matters within the framework of the alliance. The alliance was founded on freedom and equality, and they didn't do anything wrong!
They just didn't bring Lordaeron to play.
At the end of the morning's meeting, more than 20 military and trade agreements had been approved. Terenas felt like he was a voting machine that was in charge of voting for the agreement.
Of course, Terenas vetoed all the projects that might cost a lot.
Since there were no benefits, Lordaeron didn't want to be the rich guy.
Terenas made a decision. He wanted to see who the leader of the newly formed Alterac City was. If he could rope him in …
The throne meeting ended, and most of the kings got what they wanted. At night, the banquet was filled with joy.
Late at night, when the banquet ended, the eight leaders of the alliance lined up in a row, and the tragedy of using vomit to harm the saplings was repeated again.
But late at night, in the guesthouse of Stormwind City, the three leaders of Stormwind City gathered again after washing up.
"Are we just going to take away Terenas's power without leaving the alliance?" Laing expressed his doubts.
Duque asked, "Today, a bunch of kingdoms are unhappy with the leader's decision, and immediately leave the alliance and form a new alliance. How many kingdoms would be dissatisfied with a certain policy the next day? Would they be able to establish a third alliance? I'm only doing this to force Terenas to give up the idea of treating the leader as a ruler, and force Rotterdam to join the alliance like a true ally. "
Andoine shrugged. "Force? I don't think Terenas will succumb that easily. The land of Rotterdam is vast. At most, they can just seal themselves up like Cuel Salas's long ears. "
"Of course, the two countries are different. After all, there is no Warsong clan or Grom Hellscream in the elven realm! If it were him, even Andoine would have to kneel if he wasn't careful. The current Mograine is no match for him. "
Andoine shrugged and had to agree.
Mograine might not lose to Grom in terms of martial arts, but the difference in weapons and strength was too great. If he hadn't arrived in time, Lordaeron could have held a state funeral for Mograine.
"In winter, the Warsong Beastmen who lack food will naturally run out from the depths of Tirisfal Forest to cause trouble. Grom isn't stupid. He won't mess with the rangers of Cuel Salas. "
Ryan and Andoine laughed shamelessly at the thought that the only troop in the entire human world that could fight against the Warsong Beastmen was in Duke's hands.
"When spring comes next year, when our newly popularized farming tools come in handy, the Rotterdam Kingdom will naturally return to the negotiating table."
Laing was slightly stunned, but he quickly nodded. He really didn't know what Duque's brain was made of. Not only was he good at commanding troops, he was also a genius in magic, and he even had a knack for machinery. The new farming tool that he had brought out tonight had shocked the ministers in charge of agriculture.
It was a brand new double-sided plow.
Even if it was only single-sided, it was more than five times more reliable and flexible than the traditional single-sided plow.
What was even more amazing was that the double-sided plow could be used to plow in both directions, and it could freely rotate at a 45-degree angle. The material of the plow was made of steel, and it was more durable than the traditional pig iron plow. The screw at the top of the plow nozzle was longer, and the length of the plow maintained a fixed distance, making the entire plow look rounder.
If they didn't know that Duque was a mage, they would really think that Duque was an old expert who had been immersed in agriculture for decades.
Food had never been valued by the nobles of the various countries, but after the two years of war and the depletion of almost all their food reserves, almost every king's eyes lit up at the sight of new technology related to food.
Even though Duke had only asked Gerbin to make a prototype in half a day, when they saw how this new double-sided plow easily turned the frozen garden upside down, and when they were told that it had to be made by the dwarves, the big shots of the various countries immediately clenched their teeth and placed their bets. The orders that came flying in like snowflakes made Magni and Gerbin faint from joy.
Duque was very happy too.
According to the contract, he, as the inventor, could take one-third of the price of each plow as a patent fee.
It wasn't just a double-sided plow, but also a waterwheel, a water-powered mill, a water-powered iron mill, and a whole bunch of other things. It could be foreseen how much manpower could be saved when all these things were popularized.
The big shots of the alliance had all seen the power of the double-sided plow, but as for the things that only existed on the blueprints, everyone was still skeptical. Out of respect for Duke Ke, he had reserved a batch of them.
Laing was the only one who fully supported Duque.
Next year, Stormwind would taste the sweetness.
Duque knew very well that the shortage of manpower after the war would be made up for in one fell swoop with his black technology. This was also why Stormwind dared to send 80,000 soldiers to guard the Door of Darkness.
Duque continued, "The purpose of an alliance is to negotiate and fight for the same goal. Countries that insist on isolationism will definitely be heavily injured or even devoured by the new crisis. Only by staying within the framework of the alliance will there be true unity. "
"The new crisis you speak of is …" Lothar was more concerned about this.
"Recently, my men have been interrogating the Orc captives, and I've heard some unsettling news — the Orc demigod Warlock Gul 'dan has an extraordinarily powerful master called Ner' zhul!"
"I've heard of this name." Andoine recalled the report from MI7. It was necessary to interrogate the important figures of the Orc captives.
It was even better that Lothar had heard of it.
Duque began to make up a story. "It was news from an Orc that was about to die. That guy died right after he finished speaking, but I think it's quite believable. Gul 'dan first studied under the first shaman of the Shadowmoon Clan, Ner' zhul … "
