World of Warcraft: Reviving Stromgarde - Chapter 234 The Northern Expedition Begins
Stromgarde, the most powerful and ancient kingdom of mankind in Azeroth, and the main city of Stromgarde Kingdom, is extremely prosperous. Thousands of warships are docked at the port of Stromgarde, and a large number of soldiers are ready to embark on the warships. At the same time, the workers also moved the materials up.
One of the battleships was unprecedentedly huge, and unlike ordinary wooden battleships, this steel battleship was entirely made of hard alloy steel.
You must know that so far, no such huge steel battleship has been born in Azeroth. Except for the goblin steamship, the rest are all wooden ships.
Garin Trollbane, King of the Covenant and Commander-in-Chief of the Azeroth Alliance, was standing on the plywood of the warship and exclaimed, “This warship is really good. Fortunately, it was finally completed before the Northern Expedition. “
Although the battleships of Azeroth cannot be compared with the battleships of Garin’s previous life, the “Sword of Trollbane” jointly built by the Kingdom of Kul Tiras and Steel Battleship Technology is still Azeroth’s warship. It is currently the most cutting-edge warship in Sri Lanka.
“Yes, I have never thought about transforming the battleship into a steel battleship, but this has indeed greatly improved the defense of the battleship. Those goblin gadgets also solved the problem of the power system.” The admiral wearing a suit on the side said Tanred, who served uniquely, also responded with great emotion.
Admiral Tanred Proudmoore of the Kingdom of Kul Tiras is also on this battleship. He naturally has his own flagship, but for the safety of the Covenant King Garin, he chose to serve as the “Sword of Trollbane” “The captain of the ship came to ensure that Garin could reach Northrend safely during this voyage.
In fact, Galin no longer has to lead the expedition in person. Prince Auxiliary and Supreme Marshal of Stromgarde, Danaus Trollbane, originally wanted to serve as the commander of this expedition, so that Galin could spend time with his wife and the recent expedition. The child is born.
Inheriting the blood of the Trollbane and Menethil families, and also having the inheritance rights of the Kingdom of Stromgard, the Kingdom of Lordaeron and the Kingdom of Alterac, this young prince was named Thoradin by Garin. Trollbane.
Thoradin, it is Galin who hopes that when the little prince grows up, the major human kingdoms in Azeroth can restore the unified rule of the empire as they did in ancient times.
Northrend is very dangerous, but for Garin, a time traveler, it is full of opportunities, which is why he wants to conquer it himself.
At the same time, letting Arthas escape successfully in Tirisfal Glades has always been a major regret for Garin. He will not miss the opportunity to end Arthas personally.
The Argent Crusade and the Scarlet Vanguard have already laid a good foundation, so for Garin, there is no danger in heading to Northrend.
The expeditionary force that returned to the Kingdom of Stromgard, after learning what the Scourge had done, also wanted to join this expedition to Northrend.
However, he was directly rejected by Garin, and the excuse Garin gave Danas and the expeditionary force was also very simple, that is, the alliance expeditionary force had just returned from the outside world, and the expeditionary force needed to be resettled after being away from home for more than 20 years.
The Alliance Expeditionary Force has been guarding the outer lands for the Alliance for more than twenty years. They do not owe their own kingdom anything, and in fact, the human kingdoms owe them.
Garin really did not want these heroes who had finally survived to go on an expedition to another unfamiliar land before they had stayed in their hometown for a long time, and possibly die in battle there.
The people who followed Garin on the expedition to Northrend this time were all young people who voluntarily participated in this glorious expedition. Of course, almost all members of the Thoradin Legion took the initiative to follow Garin on board the warship heading for Northrend.
The reason why the fleet has not set off yet is because all the materials for the expedition to Northrend have not been transported yet.
Northrend is a continent of ice and snow. Although there are warm areas like the Sholazar Basin, the expeditionary force to defeat the Scourge must fight in the ice and snow.
Therefore, the supplies must be sufficient this time. Jialin had prepared other supplies several years in advance. During the second Quicksand War and the trip to the outer lands, the supplies prepared by the Covenant in advance allowed Jialin to always be one step ahead of the Alliance and the Horde.
But this time the supplies that were constantly being transported were actually supplies for keeping out the cold and keeping warm.
In order to prepare for this time, Garin even approached the Wildhammer dwarves of the Hinterlands and obtained a large amount of charcoal through the primeval forests of the Hinterlands.
When the supplies are almost ready, the expedition fleet will set sail and leave the port of Stromgarde. Garin’s voice echoes over the port of Stromgarde through the loudspeaker equipment:
“Covenant warriors, the warship is about to set sail, and we are about to leave our home and head to the far north.”
“Farewell to your families properly, sons and daughters of the Kingdom of Stromgard. I cannot guarantee that all of you will come back alive, but I can guarantee that I will treat your families well, and I will also guarantee that you will die. Glory, never let your corpses be desecrated by the undead!”
“This time, we will definitely win. We will go deep into the Icecrown Glacier and purify all the Lich King and their minions!”
“For the covenant!”
The Arathi people are not afraid of death, so Garin directly stated that there was no guarantee that they would all be brought back alive.
It was these words without any hypocrisy that aroused the passion in the hearts of the Arathi people. Whether they were men, women, old or young, they all responded loudly to Garin, “For the covenant!”
The warriors said their final farewells, and then firmly embarked on the voyage to Northrend.
The battleship started and slowly left the port. At this moment, Garin suddenly sensed something. When he looked back, he found that his queen Calia Menethil was holding the raped little prince Thoradin. Standing on a high ground in the port.
“I will come back safely, wait for me!” Galin waved to Caliya excitedly.
Without amplification, it was naturally impossible for Caliya to hear, but she still waved to Garin with tears in her eyes.
Without Galin, she might not have been able to escape the shadow of the ruin of her country and her family. Now she finally experienced the warmth of family again, but her husband had to leave again.
The only comfort is that I still have his children with me.
Calia looked at the peacefully sleeping little prince Thoradin, with an excited smile on his face. The bloodline of the Menethil family has not been cut off, and he will be the future common king of the three northern kingdoms.
Why doesn’t Garin want to accompany Calia and her son? However, Azeroth is full of dangers. If you make the slightest mistake, you will fall into eternal disaster.
This is the mission of men, they will use their lives to defend their families.
Seeing that some people still want to see it, I will update it slowly.
