His sonorous and forceful voice reverberated in the sky that had become silent once more, and it was like a blade or a sword that was engraved into the hearts of everyone.
Duque could tell that the Beastman was a Thousand-man Commander.
If it was the Warsong Tribe of the past that had hundreds of thousands of warriors, a Thousand-man Commander would not even be in the list. Now that the tribe had been crushed and most of the remaining Beastmen had fled back to the Dark Portal. Losing a thousand men was enough to make Grom's heart ache.
It was not that Du Que did not want to exterminate the Warsong Beastmen. Unfortunately, the Beastmen had found a way to deal with the Alliance — digging tunnels.
Their main camp was in the future Hearth Valley, which was mostly mountainous. Then, the Warsong Beastmen who had awakened a strange talent almost hollowed out the mountain.
If he faced Grom Hellscream on flat ground or in a forest, the current Duque had at least a 70% chance of killing him. With the help of the Windrunner sisters, it was 90%!
In a place like the tunnels, where only the brave would win, if he did not drag corpses to revive, Duque would not even have a 20% chance of winning.
The only fortunate thing was that the Beastmen were not a race that was good at self-sufficiency. Their large demand for meat meant that they had to frequently come out of the tunnels to forage for food.
Whether it was hunting or attacking human villages.
Duque did have the ability to exterminate the Warsong Beastmen, but that would require him to mobilize at least 30,000 dwarves and 50,000 human soldiers. If he did nothing and surrounded Grom for a year and a half, the Warsong Tribe would have to kneel no matter what.
Unfortunately, the price was too high, and it was not in line with the interests of Stormwind City and Iron Furnace Castle.
This was why Duque could let the Windrunner army continue to bleed the Warsong Beastmen, but could not exterminate the Warsong Tribe.
Duque knew that if he let this Beastman with two broken arms go back, there would be a smaller version of Kargath Bladefist.
Duque did not care.
As long as he could exert enough psychological pressure on the future core figure of the tribe, that was enough.
As expected …
The Beastman was on the verge of collapse!
"Ahhh — Bastard! Duke Marcus! One day, the tribe will make you pay! "The orc chiliarch roared like a wounded beast.
"Hahahaha!" Duque laughed maniacally. "Your first Great Chieftain, Blackhand, is no good! Not the second Great Chieftain! Wait until you elect the third Great Chieftain to come and die! I will use your blood to tell you who the eternal nightmare of the tribe is! Hahahaha! "
Duque's laughter was very arrogant and presumptuous!
To the Orcs, it was the laughter of a devil standing at the peak of evil.
In the ears of humans, there was an indescribable sense of pride!
Unknowingly, every cavalryman of the Rotterdam Kingdom straightened their backs. Even though they were injured and their broken arms were still hurting, their hearts were filled with heroism.
That's right! Duke Marcus!
Only such a heroic man could be called a hero of the Alliance!
Only such a brave and wise man could annihilate the millions of Orcs!
As expected, Duque was the flag of the Alliance!
Unknowingly, the eyes of the Rotterdam Kingdom's cavalrymen were filled with tears.
Jaina was a little dazed. She hated this feeling. She knew that it was that bastard Duque who pushed her to this barren north. She knew very well that this town that was attacked by the tribe must have been lured here by Duque. It could be said that she was forced into danger because of Duque's scheme.
A terrifying commander who could toy with millions of Orcs in the palm of his hand. It would be too fake to say that he did not even think of this.
And this fellow, who did not look remorseful, did not seem to want to deny this.
She should hate him for messing up her first Valentine's Day and her dream of a perfect 14th birthday.
After thinking it through, she realized that Duque was telling her that this was the Orc tribe that her father and the entire Kurtiras Kingdom had been fighting for for the past two years. This was the battlefield that her brother, Drake, had sacrificed his life for!
And she … Perhaps this was in line with one of her dreams. Duque did not seem to treat her as a political tool, nor did he treat her as a woman. Instead, he nurtured her as an important mage in the Alliance.
Jaina did not know whether to laugh or cry.
However, Duke was able to use Army Destroyer all by himself. Such a mighty figure caused Jaina's heart to flutter.
Because at this moment, Duque and the legendary hero Duque had silently overlapped. More specific, more clear …
"Ahhhh —" The Orc chiliarch left in a very manly way. He pressed his bleeding arms against one of the hammers that Jaina had just burned red. The high temperature quickly scorched his wounds and stopped the bleeding. Obviously, this was something he had learned in the Silverpine Forest that was like a fiery hell.
The paladin captain who led the team came over and bowed to Duque respectfully. "Greetings, Your Excellency. I am the captain of the third garrison of Tirisfal, Baron Thorad Cassian. Excuse me, are you Grand Duke Marcus? "
"That's me."
"Uh, thank you for your help. Without you, perhaps we would have all been wiped out." Then he glanced at Jaina, who was covered in blood. "I'm sorry to disturb you, but can I ask what's going on?"
"Because of a mistake in the teleportation spell, Princess Jaina Proudmore accidentally came to Tirisfal Forest. It was you who bravely protected Princess Proudmore under the siege of a thousand orcs until Grand Duke Duke Marcus arrived. Brave warriors, you not only fought against the evil orcs, but also protected the beautiful princess. You did a good job and deserve a reward. "
Duque took out a piece of kraft paper and a quill, padded it on the wall, scribbled down the general process, and stamped his own seal.
"Take this to your commander, or even to His Majesty Menethil. You will be rewarded. Lordaeron's and Kul 'Tiras'. And this is my small private reward. " Duque took out a bag of gold coins for the paladin and a pair of paladin gloves made by the dwarves of Iron Stove Castle.
Cassian and his men were immediately moved.
Jaina … The little princess of Kul 'Tiras was so angry that her teeth itched. It was Duque who had deliberately dug a pit for her to jump in, and even included the cavalry in the pit. They had worked for you, but you made it seem as if Jaina's spell mistake had caused them to suffer heavy losses.
But as smart as she was, of course, she would not expose Duque on the spot.
After politely thanking him, she teleported back to Karazhan with Duke, even quieter than a well-behaved wife.
