Chapter 141

After stepping on the alaxi highland, zuifeng and Chen can't wait to find a city to have a good rest.

For half a month in a row, they were exhausted both physically and mentally. They could only chew the dry legs of egrets in the wetland every day. It was too painful for food.

After crossing the sador bridge, there is a road ahead. Zuifeng inquired about it, went north along the road, and then turned west. In a few days, he could get to the rapids castle!

"That's great!" Old Chen was so excited that he almost jumped up. "I can finally find a place to take a bath, have a big meal and have a good sleep."

Zui Feng nodded and let out a breath.

Three days later, Zhongfen and Lao Chen finally came to the gate of the torrent fortress.

Compared with the time when the torrent fort was just built thousands of years ago, it is obviously a bit dilapidated today. The ancient city walls can be called disrepair for a long time, and the civilians in and out of the city seem to be in good condition.

Zuifeng's brow frowned at the thought of many pastures and farmlands he saw along the way - it was very wrong! Why are these people in such a bad state of mind?

Although the land here has become relatively barren after thousands of years of reclamation, there is not much population here!

What's more, the orc war is over, and there is no other burden here. Why do you always think that the people in torrent Castle live like refugees?

……………………

Soras talbein was, at this point, hopeless.

Orc shelter originally had no burden on torrent castle, but since the high elves quit the league and there is no big money owner, the whole alliance's finance has become very difficult. Terenas complained to himself more than once that he could hardly afford these orcs.

As a result, SOLAS softened his heart and agreed to help share some.

Originally, this is not too big a thing. The aid of riparian fort is more a kind of help than a duty. But what SOLAS didn't expect was that Terenas was using chicken feather as an arrow!

At the general assembly of the alliance, all the six countries agreed and passed the resolution of helping the orcs to take shelter in the rapids. Then Terenas simply spread out a large amount of funds to the rapids.

Now soras is stupid!

Yes, I'll see. Can I help you? How did I have to help you?!

At this time, Terenas's political skills were well demonstrated. He began to preach about the selflessness of riparian, and repeatedly expressed his expectation for its help. As a result, if soras dares not to complete these financial tasks, then the reputation of riparian in the League will be greatly reduced.

If it's just a matter of credibility, soras may struggle to get rid of his own skin and can't accept it. However, in his subsequent urging, Terenas intentionally or unintentionally said that if he didn't take money, he would impose economic sanctions on torrent castle, which made soras really helpless.

The forced torrent castle can only raise taxes.

Imagine that at this time, Stormwind Kingdom almost does not collect taxes, but torrent castle is increasing taxes!

Do you think this is Terenas's plan? How naive!

Ten days ago, in the League meeting held again after the first batch of fund apportionment was completed in torrent castle, SOLAS made it clear that torrent castle had tried its best and could not continue, and hoped to cancel the apportionment.

The other five countries of mankind have expressed their understanding and then rejected the proposal of riparian castle!

At this time, SOLAS realized that the current alliance was not the unity facing the orcs, and all countries had their own careful thinking - and the torrent castle, the weakest national strength, had become the victim of this small mind!

Terenas Menethil, king of Lordaeron, was the mastermind behind all this, and naturally he would not let the rapids pass easily, which soras thought.

Then kurtilas's high attitude was worth pondering. Admiral daileen Proudmoore seemed to have found something new, and he sold rapids without hesitation.

Dalaran's chief of the kenrito Council, master antonidas, had a grudge against torrent castle.

After Eden, king of Alterac, betrayed the alliance, the barov family, the aristocrat of Alterac, stood on the side of the alliance. As a result, after the war, the barov family not only did not get the reward it deserved, but was deprived of almost all its territory under the proposal and support of Terenas, gene, soras and Varian!

Janice barov, the Duchess of the barov family, is antonidas' Junior sister. Although antonidas tried to stop this, he could not resist the vote of 4-3.

The vote took place when the expeditionary army was fighting in Delano. Terenas, as the beneficiary, did not hesitate to confiscate the territory of the barov family to Lordaeron; gene had not yet withdrawn from the alliance, and he had reached some relevant agreements with Terenas and agreed to sacrifice barov; soras did not realize the true face of Terenas at that time, and he listened to him According to renas, barov was willing to punish them for his double bets. Without Lothar's help, Varian was Terenas's echo. Basically, storm city was simply following the votes.This incident made antonidas feel frustrated with the alliance, but also secretly hated the four countries that approved the vote. It was not easy for SOLAS to suffer this time. Antonidas directly said that torrent Fort should bear the apportionment!

Storm city's attitude is worth pondering. At this time, although Varian Urien still showed great respect for Terenas, with the help of tulayan and kadga, Varian, who had experienced too much, was no longer a political idiot. Since the rapids castle was no longer saved at this time, we might as well vote for it. There are also opportunities to make friends with Dalaran and antonidas - sorry, I didn't before Understand everything. I was just cheated by Terenas.

At this time, the ugliness of politics was revealed. The loyalty and goodwill of the torrent fort to the alliance became the reason for its decline, while the integrity of King soras became the talisman of the castle.

What's more, now the ogres around arahi heights are ready to move. Because the army of riparian Fort suffered heavy losses in the expedition, in order to defend against ogres and syndicate thieves, torrent Castle even had to ask for help from the alliance.

It also blocked the last way out of the league.

Soras has paid a heavy price for his innocence. If he does not quit the league, torrent castle will be exploited endlessly; if he withdraws from the alliance, torrent castle will die in the hands of thieves and ogres.

Standing on the ancient wall of torrent castle, SOLAS looked at the arahi highland in the setting sun. His heart was very heavy. After so much experience, he finally understood the purpose of Terenas - to force himself to abdicate and annex rapids.
