During the process of being bound up for custody, Kilrogg was still mumbling to himself.

"This shouldn't be my fate... This shouldn't be the fate of the orcs..."

Suddenly, Kilrogg roared wildly.

"I won't lose to you! My fate that I don't believe will come to an end, never!"

Li De ignored him and just waved his hand to take him down. The only thing waiting for these orcs in the future is the trial. Before that, Li De had no idea of ​​spitting with them.

Apart from those who died in the battle and the hundreds of orcs who escaped, the remaining more than 1,000 people became prisoners. All over the battlefield are images of prisoners being held in custody.

For these, Li De naturally does not need to do it himself. He met High Tinker Mekkatorque on the edge of the battlefield, in a cleared field.

"God, you are so tall."

In the gnome language and culture, this mantra is not an expression of direct meaning, but a compliment with rich meanings. In this way, the master craftsman expressed his gratitude to Li De for his reinforcements, and then the two began to discuss the follow-up arrangements for the battlefield.

"Great Artisan, I suggest sending these prisoners to the rear first and handing them over to His Majesty Magni to deal with. Because according to the information, in Khaz Modan, in addition to the Blood Ring clan, there is also the Dragonmaw entrenched in Grim Batol. clan.

This is the main traffic road. If they come to sabotage after learning the news, leaving the prisoners here is a huge safety hazard. "

Mekkatorque strongly agreed with Li De's suggestion. There is not much time for them to chat on the battlefield. Although both of them want to have a serious exchange, the current situation obviously does not have that much time.

After leaving some supplies here, Li De accompanied the logistics team on the road.

After entering the Burning Plain, climate change also caused the marching team to uniformly take off their thick furs.

Obviously it's just a mountain apart, but Khaz Modan in the north of the mountain is a vast snow field, but it's hot and dry here. The reason for this is the "Battle of the Three Hammers" that took place within the dwarf race in ancient times.

Dwarves are mainly divided into three clans: Bronzebeard, Wildhammer, and Dark Iron.

The three originally lived together in Ironforge, but the Dark Iron dwarves, eager to dominate Ironforge, waged war against Bronzebeard and Wildhammer.

At the end of the war, the Dark Iron Dwarves held a mysterious ceremony here because of their ineffective combat, and summoned the Lord of Fire Elements from the Elemental Plane: Balrog Ragnaros.

This caused the fire element to rage here and completely changed the local climate, and the dark iron dwarves also became the servants of the fire element.

The dark iron dwarves who lost their freedom also lost the ability to attack Ironforge, and the "Battle of the Three Hammers" officially ended. The Wildhammer dwarves, who suffered heavy losses in this war, chose to leave the sad place of Ironforge. Moved to live on the Eagle's Nest Mountain in the northern Hinterlands, and forged a deep friendship with the griffins, becoming a mountain nation.

Only the Bronzebeard dwarves lived in Ironforge.

Every time he read this piece of history, Li De couldn't help but feel embarrassed and take it as a warning, and be alert to the division within the ethnic group. There is still a long way to go.

After walking for more than ten kilometers along the road between the hills, Li De and the others encountered the alliance's sentry.

When normal dwarf logistics troops pass by, the soldiers at the sentry will naturally let them go. But outside the logistics force, Li De and his team of humans, trolls, and goblins made the guards hesitate.

The guards of this sentry were still from Stromgarde, and the trolls naturally made them vigilant. Especially not long ago, there was a mutiny in the Alterac Kingdom in the alliance, and there was a case of opening the door for the tribe to pass through, so it is not surprising that these guards thought too much.

In order not to cause misjudgment to the other party, Li De did not take the initiative to contact him, but only explained loudly after two soldiers were dispatched from the sentry post.

"I am a former Stormwind officer. These trolls are allied troops from the other side of the sea. We are not enemies. Marshal Lothar knows us."

The dwarf quartermaster in the team also explained together, and the person in charge of the sentry gathered up his courage and walked in front of Li De.

"Please stay where you are and don't take any other actions. We need to report the situation here to the marshal, who will make the decision himself and send someone to prove your identities."

Li De was not in a hurry, but the dwarf quartermaster was impatient. He also wanted to complete the handover as soon as possible so that he could return to Magni Bronzebeard to return to life. The climate of the Burning Plain was too terrible for them.

There was no need for Li De to wait too long. It was already very close to Lothar's headquarters. Just ten minutes after the sentry sent someone to report on horseback, Kurdran Wildhammer arrived on a griffin.

"Oh, you finally arrived. Why did it take so long?"

Griffin Kurdran said with a bit of complaint that if there is no news after a while, he plans to ride the griffin and check along the road again.

"Sorry for the long wait. On the way, we encountered an orc army and fought a battle with the Blood Ring clan in the woodland."

Li De said lightly, but Kurdran was shocked. In the chat with Magni before, he had also heard about the power of the Blood Ring Clan, and immediately asked a superfluous question.

"How is it? Did you win?"

As soon as the words came out, Kurdran realized how stupid the question was. If he didn't win the battle, how could Li De stand in front of him and talk to himself in a refreshing way?

Sure enough, Li De smiled heartily.

"A great victory! The chief of the blood ring clan was also captured alive, and it is estimated that he has been taken to Ironforge by now."

Hearing this, Kurdran excitedly patted Li De's arm.

"Hahaha! Alright! Let's go, let's go see Lothar together!"

After Kurdran's personal certification, the person in charge of the sentry didn't bother, shouted "Let's go", and moved the barricade of the bayonet to let everyone pass.

At this moment, Kurdran blew a brisk whistle, and the Griffin who was standing beside twisted his neck and looked towards them.

Kurdran's handsome griffin partner had doubts in his eyes. The Wildhammer leader walked over and grabbed the fluffy feathers on the griffin's neck with his thick hands, causing the griffin to close his eyes comfortably.

Kurdran said a few words in Griffin's ear, and the Griffin rose into the air and hovered above everyone's heads.

"There are still a few sentries ahead. I'll walk with you, which is also convenient."

Walking all the way, Li De carefully observed the layout of the sentry camps along the way. Of course, Li De did not spy on the military situation, but was learning how to manage a large army.

If there is anything that Li De lacks most now, it must be commanding the army. He is a junior officer, and so far he has directly commanded hundreds of people to fight, and he has no experience in leading a large army.

Finally, the team arrived at the main alliance headquarters at the foot of Blackrock Mountain, outside Lothar's headquarters.

"Wait, I'll call Lothar for you, his tent is too crowded."

Kurdran said with a smile, and walked into Lothar's tent. In less than a minute, Kurdran strode out, followed by an "old man" who was fully armed and spirited.

This "old man" has a tall stature with white hair and beard. He walks with gusto, without the slightest stoop. He is the supreme commander of the alliance: Lothar.

Although her beard and hair are all white, Lothar is actually only middle-aged. Li De knew better but why the other party became like this. After all, he was one of the people who had experienced it.

This appearance was caused by the powerful magic of the opponent when he attacked Karazhan and killed the lost guardian Medivh. Along with Lothar, the mage Khadgar was also affected.

Seeing Lothar again, Li De was a little excited. But just as he was about to speak, Lothar motioned for him not to speak.

Li De was a little dazed, but he still maintained a standard standing posture, letting Lothar walk around him a few times and look up and down. This lasted for a while before Lothar laughed and pressed his hand firmly on Li De's shoulder.

"Okay! Good! Long time no see, you have changed a lot, but not much. I was saddened for a long time to learn that your ship was missing. You can lead everyone to open up a new home in a foreign land. Very pleased."

Li De nodded heavily.

"I have not forgotten that I am your soldier. I am always thinking of coming back here and recovering our homeland when I am in a foreign land."

Lothar laughed even more happily. He used to look like a middle-aged man, but he always looked very dignified in front of the soldiers. Since his appearance has grown old, his mentality has also grown old, and even his demeanor has become a lot more kind.

"Okay, I know you have a lot of things you want to tell me. We'll talk about those later. Go and catch up with your old friends first."

Li De was still at a loss, but then he heard a call from behind him.

"Reed! Reed Victory! You're still alive!"

This voice was too familiar to Li De, he turned around suddenly and called out the caller's name.

"Windersall! Are you here too?!"

It was an officer of the same age as Li De with short brown hair. At this moment, the other party was striding over, and Li De also greeted him.

The four powerful arms were clasped together, joy, emotion, excitement... All kinds of complex emotions flooded into Li De's heart for a while.

"It's almost two years since Stormwind City said goodbye?"

Windsor seemed to recall the most difficult years.

"Yeah, we followed the marshal's surprise attack on Karazhan, as if it happened just yesterday."

Li De also said emotionally, but this made Windsor laugh out loud.

"You said, we didn't go to the top at all, but the puppets at the lower level were enough for us, didn't you almost lose your life? You were so frightened that you cursed~www.wuxiahere.com ~ That scolding is ugly."

For Windsor's behavior of exposing his embarrassing incident, Li De also bluntly retorted.

"If you didn't say it, I almost forgot. It's you **** who treats me like a dragon, and that sword almost hit me!"

"Uh……"

Windsor was stunned for a moment, and then both of them laughed wildly. Looking at Li De and his subordinates, they were stunned for a while. Have they ever seen this side of the Protector?

The smiling faces of the two were a little stiff, and Li De asked.

"Where are the guys who were with us at the time? Why are you the only one who came to see me when my old friend came back?"

This question made Windsor stop smiling instantly.

"They all died, some were responsible for the aftermath of the evacuation from Stormwind City, and some were in Hillsbrad Hills..."

They both fell into silence, but Windsor soon regained his spirits.

"Fortunately, this **** war is finally over! The orcs have all retreated to the Blackrock Spire, and their complete destruction is not far away!"

Li De also nodded in agreement.

"That's right, the war is almost over. Speaking of which, where is your brother now? Did you serve in the Guards before?"

Talking about this, Windsor couldn't help but say proudly.

"I'm currently serving in General Turalyon's army. Speaking of which, you don't know General Turalyon, do you?"

How could the legendary Li De not know him? Immediately affirmed.

"I know General Turalyon, it was mentioned in Zandalar's battle report. He is now the Marshal's most trusted lieutenant?"

"That's right, he is a glorious Paladin."
