A truly outstanding lie that could deceive people would be 90% true and 10% false.
As long as the most critical point could be deceived, it would be considered a real success.
Jaina portrayed herself as a half-baked pioneer who relied on her powerful magic to climb to a high position, befitting her noble identity.
In the following conversation, she revealed the predicament of the Alliance, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Although I don't want to admit it, I have to be honest. The Alliance is in the biggest crisis since its establishment. The capital of Lordaeron, the leader of the Alliance, has fallen because of the rebellion of the fallen prince. The current situation is that the king of Lordaeron has been killed, and two-thirds of the territory has fallen into the plague. The Dalajan has been destroyed, and Antonidas has been captured and turned into a Great Lich. The Stormgard King Galin Trollbane has been turned into an Immortal, and Gilniss has been defeated, and was forced to release endless werewolves from the Emerald Dream … "
If Jaina deliberately leaked the information, it would undoubtedly be extremely stupid to expose one's own weakness on a diplomatic level.
A weak Alliance would undoubtedly weaken one's bargaining chips in negotiations.
On the other hand, it could also be used as a warning to the enemy.
Lordaeron, Dalajan, Stormgard, and Gilniss were all countries that had dealt a heavy blow to the Horde during the previous battle at the Dark Portal. The bravery of the soldiers of these countries was still deeply imprinted in the hearts of many of the older Orcs.
However, such powerful countries had all been destroyed. One could imagine how ferocious the Calamity Army was.
In the imagination of the Orcs, the fall of the capital, the death of the king, or the death of the king, was definitely a state of annihilation.
The intuition of the Orcs was amazing. Coupled with the mysterious Shaman Witchcraft, if Jaina were to lie, Thrall would see through her at any moment. When that happened, it would not be fun.
However, every word and situation that Jaina said was the truth, which made it seem like the other things that Jaina said were more like arguments to boost her morale. For example:
"But we are not afraid. We still have the strongest commander of the Alliance, Duke Marcus. He and the Stormwind Army led by Sir Lothar, together with the tanks of the Iron Furnace Fort. A total of 200,000 troops are landing in Southshore. We will definitely recover the entire Lordaeron continent."
Was Thrall worried about Duque?
Of course!
However, at this moment, Azeroth, the best actress of the year, Jaina, had already led Sal and the rest into a trap. How could Sal possibly know that the situation in Rotterdam was actually far from what they had imagined?
The next scene was even more exciting. Just as Jaina was complaining, Varrock came in and said, "Great chief, a human guard insists on interrupting your meeting with the Alliance emissary. He wants to inform the Alliance emissary directly."
Sal said, "Let him in."
An Alliance guard was led into the tent by Varrock. He hurriedly whispered something to Jaina. Jaina shuddered and gritted her teeth, as if she had decided to confess. "The latest news is that the Scourge used the traitors of the Silver Moon Council to attack Cuel Salas with the teleportation circle. Now that Silverymoon City has been destroyed, Breaking Dawn Archmage Anastrian Sunstrider, the king of Cuel Salas, has joined the Scourge Army and become a Great Lich. "
In the end, Jaina added, "I already knew that the Doomsday Army had their eyes on the High Elves. I just didn't expect it to be like this. "
Jaina's bitter and embarrassed look made the young Sal's heart soften.
At this time, Jaina said, "It is precisely because we are worried that the situation in Lordaeron will collapse. If we do not handle it well, even Stormwind City and Iron Furnace Castle in the south will not be able to defend. So Commander Marcus sent me to lead a group of refugees to the west to cross the Endless Sea and build a refuge in Kalimdor. This time, I came to ask the tribe to temporarily not attack the refuge built by the Alliance on Theramor Island for the sake of us all living beings. "
As soon as this sentence came out, Sal, Wojin, and other tribal leaders suddenly had a sense of resonance with the people who had fallen into the same predicament.
It turned out that the once incomparably powerful Alliance had fallen to this point!
For a moment, even Sal and the others felt their hearts sink.
After Jaina put out a lot of useless non-aggression treaties between the Alliance and the Tribe, Sal politely asked Jaina to go and rest first.
Then, of course, it was a closed-door meeting of the tribe leaders.
Sal spoke first, "What do you think of the proposal of the Alliance this time?"
Varrock Sarufar gestured at the rough map in the big tent. The current map in the tribe's hands was so rough that there was no shadow, only a scribbled coastline and a few general areas. Except for Durotar which was a little clear, the Barren Land in the west, the Stonetalon Mountains in the west, and the Dustwallow Swamp in the south were all blurred.
Varrock gestured for a long time, but still frowned and said, "Too close!"
Yes, Theramor was too close to the tribe's new capital. It was like a sharp dagger hanging around the tribe's neck. In case the Alliance went to war with the Horde, the Alliance's fleet could sweep the entire east coast of Durotar and the Echo Islands where the Trolls lived within three days.
Sal did not speak, he looked at Wojin.
The Troll leader said, "As an emissary, she must have a lot to hide. But everyone will have their own secrets in their heart. My intuition tells me that every word she said is true. "
Varrock nodded, "I also think it is true. We have all seen how terrifying that damn Undead Legion is. It is not unusual to have such a result. "
Sal sighed, "Then we have a conclusion. Let's accept this Alliance for the time being. In case something goes wrong in the future. Let's destroy Theramor's Alliance first, don't give the Alliance a bridgehead to step into Kalimdor. "
Half a day later, Jaina returned to Theramor with a five-year non-aggression treaty between the Alliance and the Horde. When she returned, she found that the magic communication array with the Eastern Kingdom had been set up, so she sent the message back, along with what she had seen and heard.
In her bedroom, Jaina used a basin placed in the middle of the room to wash her feet while humming happily, "Hmph! Let me develop with peace of mind and nail Theramore to the Kalimdor Continent! Stupid Orcs! You dirty green-skinned creatures are only worthy of drinking the Princess's foot-washing water. "
At this time, a sudden voice came, "Well, you did a good job this time. Sal really should drink your foot-washing water."
The voice almost scared Jaina to the ground.
