Glory Capital wanted to take back Tanaris first, then take over the Thousand Needles and Un 'Goro Crater. This way, their Barrenlands could be connected and their territory would be bigger. That way, they would be able to establish their position as the King of the Barrenlands.
Tanaris had been taken from Gale Legion by Blood Red War Flag. Gale Legion was the Capital of Glory's underling, so it could be said that they had taken it from The Capital of Glory.
Therefore, Lu Li wasn't worried that the Capital of Glory would cause trouble for him.
Since the Capital of Glory and Blood Red War Flag were bound to fight, Lu Li was happy to sit back and watch, so he didn't intend to cause trouble for the Capital of Glory.
However, after Jade Flower Lover's arrival, everything changed.
"Brother Lu Li, can't you see the Capital of Glory's ambition? They clearly intend to establish themselves in Orgrimmar, and their ultimate goal is the entire Kalimdor continent. Brother Lu Li, your Grey Valley Stronghold is under their control. Don't you have trouble sleeping and eating?"
"I slept well last night … uh, speak human language," Lu Li said awkwardly.
"Pfft, we hope that Ruling Sword can attack the Barrenlands Stronghold," Jade Flower Lover said, feeling like he was playing the piano to a cow. He hated illiterates the most. Talking to them was tiring.
"What's in it for me, and what's in it for you?" Lu Li's way of thinking was very sharp.
"The Barrenlands Stronghold! Isn't that good enough?" Jade Flower Lover said excitedly.
"When did our relationship get to this point?" Lu Li didn't believe it.
"Actually, we also have our own interests to consider. Tanaris, we're worried that we can't hold it, so we hope that you can contain their strength. Now, you won't doubt our intentions, right?" Jade Flower Lover sighed and said sincerely.
"Do you think I'm stupid? Who knows if you've already gone to the Capital of Glory and told them not to attack me. Ruling Sword is going all out to attack the Barrenlands. You'd better take advantage of their emptiness to attack their two Strongholds!"
F * ck, Flower Lover Jade was speechless. How could an illiterate be so smart?
"Talk about some practical benefits. Otherwise, who would work for you?" Lu Li picked his ears like a rascal. He did not have the bearing of a big club owner at all.
"I … I don't have to lie to you." Jade Flower Lover wanted to cry.
"But I don't have to believe you," Lu Li said helplessly.
"Then what do you want?" They shouldn't have come. They really shouldn't have come to Ruling Sword. Lu Li didn't play by the rules at all. Previously, when they came to Wings of Dawn, they very readily agreed to attack The Capital of Glory's Stranglethorn Vale.
"First, you have to pay for the land. Second …" Lu Li put up a second finger.
Jade Flower Lover had a hard time holding himself back from breaking these two fingers. He asked in a low voice, "Do you know how much it costs to bid for a piece of land now? Oh, I'm wrong. Ruling Sword doesn't know at all. You guys are satisfied with two pieces of land, so you guys don't even pay attention to auctions."
"There's no use in provoking me," Lu Li said with a laugh. "Second, you'd better go and spread Ruling Sword's strategy. We'll use the Night Elves' main city as the foundation, gradually nibble away at the surrounding areas, and finally unify Kalimdor."
"You … you're joking, right?" Jade Flower Lover said bitterly.
"I never joke. I'm serious. I really want to attack the Barrenlands, but you know we don't have the money," Lu Li said more sincerely.
"Alright." Jade Flower Lover thought for a moment and finally made a decision. The main reason was that there weren't many people bidding for the Barrenlands, so the price wouldn't be high. If Ruling Sword could really take the Barrenlands, then Blood Red War Flag's Tanaris would really be impregnable.
"Wait, third …" Lu Li put up a third finger.
"Lu, don't go too far," Jade Flower Lover said. He felt like he was going to go offline from anger.
"We've fought so hard for you. You can't just ignore us. Hades doesn't need hungry ghosts," Lu Li said matter-of-factly.
"Do you want us to give up our equipment and people too?" Jade Flower Lover shouted as he grabbed Lu Li's collar.
"Uh, that's not necessary," Lu Li said shyly.
"You're not going to give us the Stronghold after you've taken it," Jade Flower Lover roared.
"Ahem, let go. Are you trying to murder me?" Lu Li struggled to break free. After a few steps away from the roaring emperor, he calmly said, "Since you've already given up the equipment, why do you still care about this small profit? You can also go to other clubs. Hey, don't go. Do you think other clubs will let Xiao Mo defend with all his strength?"
Lu Li's last sentence successfully made Jade Flower Lover stay. He had to face this reality.
The Capital of Glory was too strong. Ruling Sword couldn't compare, nor could Blood Red War Flag. The other clubs couldn't compare either. What really made Xiao Mo afraid wasn't Ruling Sword, but Lu Li!
He always had some unpredictable tricks up his sleeve. Every time, he could make Xiao Mo taste the long-lost taste of defeat.
If Ruling Sword really went all out and attacked the Barrenlands, no matter how confident Xiao Mo was, he would have to defend with all his troops. After all, the Barrenlands were too important to the Capital of Glory. They could lose Stranglethorn Vale, but they couldn't lose the Barrenlands.
Jade Flower Lover was right. The Capital of Glory really did plan to use Orgrimmar as the center.
"We don't have any potions. We can only give you gold. How do you calculate it?"
"I'll get someone to pull up a list. Let's follow the standards of the last time we attacked and defended against the Capital of Glory. It's the system's data, so there's no way we can tamper with it," Lu Li said seriously.
Jade Flower Lover's heart was bleeding, but he held back his tears and reached a preliminary agreement with Lu Li.
Lu Li wasn't fooling around. He really did bid for the Barrenlands. He successfully won the right to attack the Barrenlands for 40,000 gold.
This was a very rare price, and it was the lowest price in this auction. In fact, Lu Li's bid was still quite high. The second place bid was just over 20,000 gold. No one would want to die by going to the Barrenlands. That would be throwing money down the drain. Even ghosts knew that going to the Barrenlands would cost Sorrowless his life. If you had the money, you might as well go to Stranglethorn Vale.
However, this money was paid by Blood Red War Flag. They gave 50,000 gold as the upper limit, and Lu Li was already very generous of him to leave 10,000 gold.
In addition to the 20,000 gold for potions, Blood Red War Flag spent a total of 60,000 gold to bribe Ruling Sword to help them hold back The Capital of Glory.
This was a very good deal for Jade Flower Lover. 60,000 gold was definitely not enough to use their own people to protect their own Stronghold.
In the end, it was Gale Legion who obtained the right to attack Tanaris.
