Now, Ye Ting certainly has to take precautions before they happen.

Of course, he didn't even think about killing Zul'jin who was locked in a prisoner-of-war camp—even though the troll leader had a huge reputation among the Amani trolls.

Although Zul'jin’s prisoner of war camp is within the territory of human beings, it belongs to Quel'Thalas. This is also a rare cooperation between humans and high elves. They have always been the same in their stand against trolls.

As the leader of the Zul'Aman troll, Zul'jin's hands were stained with the blood of the high elves, which can be regarded as the high elves' mortal vengeance. However, due to strategic considerations, the high elves have not put him to death after capturing him. , But let him live in a prisoner-of-war camp to contain the Amani troll.

Although Quel'Thalas is far more powerful than the Amani trolls, but because the reproduction speed is too slow, Quel'Thalas is basically impossible to attack Zu Aman at the cost of huge casualties. After all, the trolls reproduce faster than the high elves. Much faster. And if they can keep Zul'jin alive, then the Amani troll will be in chaos for a long time. The dispute over redeeming the leader, rescuing the leader or fighting hard will split the entire Amani troll, Quel'Sala Si is able to keep them in weakness for a long time.

On the contrary, if Zul'jin is killed, the Amani troll who has lost its leader is likely to re-elect a new leader, and then unite under the banner of revenge for Zul'jin. In that way, Quel'Sala Si may be caught in a new war, which is inconsistent with the interests of the high elves.

In Ye Ting's view, if there were no orcs, the strategy of the high elves was indeed clever. After all, the powerful multiplying ability of trolls made them like rice, which would grow after one crop.

Anyone familiar with biology knows that the curve of species reproduction is related to the capacity of the environment. When the number of species is scarce, the growth rate will increase greatly-because the environment is sufficient to accommodate more numbers. But when the number of species is too high, the speed of reproduction will gradually decrease to zero, because the environment is not enough to accommodate such a large population.

This is the same for Amani trolls. No matter how the high elves clean up the Amani trolls in the ancestral Aman jungle, their population will quickly recover, but the high elves themselves can't afford to consume them-for specific reasons, refer to the Vietnam War in the lighthouse country.

However, the number of trolls that can be accommodated in the Zuaman Jungle is limited. If the high elves allow them not to eliminate them, but weaken them in other ways, the number of trolls will no longer increase after reaching the limit, and in general, they will not be against the elves. What trouble caused.

But now, the appearance of the orcs has caused the high elves to throw a rock on their own feet, and they haven't found it yet.

Chapter 0469: The Lordaeron

In fact, Ye Ting's strategy is very simple.

The fundamental reason why the high elves did not hesitate to let the great enemy Zul'jin live was that they had no way to completely wipe out the jungle of Ancestral Aman and remove the trolls from the roots.

Even in the modern society that develops a scientific earth, jungle warfare is a huge trouble for the technologically advanced powers, and in World of Warcraft, it is also the same for the elves.

The dense jungle can greatly close the quality gap between the trolls and the elves. The rangers of the high elves are like a drop in the bucket when facing a large number of trolls. Worse, the number of the high elves makes it impossible for them to check thoroughly. In the entire Zuaman jungle, this gave the troll tribe hidden in the jungle a chance to survive and finally rejuvenate (burn the forest on a large scale, causing huge damage, and there will be dragons looking for trouble).

However, this is not an unsolvable trouble.

Although the number of high elves is scarce, they can't completely fill the pit of jungle warfare, but some people can.

Those are humans and dwarves.

In fact, trolls are not only enemies with high elves, but also enemies with humans and dwarves.

Needless to say, humans, thousands of years ago, the destruction of the Amani troll empire was precisely because of the coalition of humans and high elves.

As for the dwarves, the Bronzebeard dwarves and the Dark Iron dwarves are far from the habitat of the trolls, but the Wildhammer dwarves living in the Hinterlands are not. They are also neighbors of the Amani trolls and often conflict with the trolls.

In the past of the peaceful years, although humans, high elves and wildhammer dwarves have folk ties, they have never considered joining together to eliminate the Amani trolls.

But now it's different.

The emergence of the tribe is not only an opportunity for the revival of the Amani trolls, but also an opportunity for the unity of humans, high elves and wildhammer dwarves.

Because of the orcs, the high elves are now determined to join the alliance.

Although the Wildhammer dwarves have long been split from the Bronzebeard dwarves, the dwarves have broken bones and connected tendons after all. How can they let the Bronzebeard dwarves be slaughtered by the orcs? In this respect, the dwarves are more united than humans, so Ye Ting can be sure that the Wildhammer dwarves will easily be persuaded to join the alliance.

Under such circumstances, it is not impossible for the three to jointly eliminate the Amani trolls. On the one hand, the trolls are indeed the common enemy of the three and the potential allies of the orcs; on the other hand, the nations of mankind also need to do something to impress. The high elves allow them to see more benefits brought to them by the alliance, not just having to join the alliance because of circumstances.

However, how to do this requires someone to match and build a bridge.

What Ye Ting had to do was such a job.

However, before that, he must seek the support of Anduin Lothar and King Terenas of Lordaeron.

With Lothar’s military qualities, after Ye Ting’s reminder, he can naturally see the possibility of the troll joining the tribe, and he can also realize the threat to the alliance if all this happens, but when Ye Ting proposed When clearing the plan to suppress the Amani troll, the commander still hesitated.

"Sorry, Sander, although I agree with you very much, we really can't do anything to deal with the Amani troll problem at the moment," the soldier explained with a sigh, "In fact, it's hard for me. Persuade the kings to spend a lot of manpower and material resources in order to eliminate a potential threat... After all, just like the orcs before them, most people will be lucky to think that the trouble will not happen before the trouble really comes."

"Yeah, everyone can be'Zhuge Liang after the event' (this is automatically converted into a proverb with the same meaning as Azeroth), but how many people can really see the long-term?" Ye Ting smiled bitterly and continued Said: "However, the manpower and material resources that Qing Anzuo Aman needs to consume are not as much as we imagined, and maybe there will be some compensation."

"Oh, how do you say?" Lothar heard the words and looked at Ye Ting with interest. He was looking forward to this talented mage giving him another surprise-just like he had done countless times before.

"In fact, we are not the only people willing to kill the trolls—our new ally, the high elves, and our potential ally, the Wildhammer dwarves, must be happy to make such a deal with us."

"Go on, Sander, go on." Lothar immediately lit up when Ye Ting mentioned the high elves and the Wildhammer dwarves.

"Yes, Commander," Ye Ting smiled confidently: "As we all know, the high elves have had blood and blood feuds with the Amani trolls for generations. If it were not for the lack of national power, they would have long wanted to eradicate this big trouble. I listened. Said that this time joining the alliance, the high elves were originally willing to come up with more troops, but because of the defense of the Amani trolls, they had to leave enough manpower to garrison the border. If we can solve this problem for them , Compared to the high elves, they will provide us with more help in fighting the orcs."

In fact, the high elves never proposed this idea, it was just that Ye Ting was confident that he could convince them.

But Lothar believed Ye Ting's words, and felt that he was justified and convincing.

Ye Ting continued to analyze and said: "As for the Wildhammer dwarves, although their relationship with us has not been close, but they live in the Hinterlands are also suffering from trolls, although they should support Katz. Modan’s compatriots joined the alliance, but I think the common interests can deepen their loyalty to the alliance, and the Amani troll is the goal of showing sincerity."

These words made Lothar nodded again and again. He even thought of using the process of fighting the Amani trolls as an opportunity to run in the tribal armies, and the tall trolls could also allow the soldiers to adapt to the feelings of fighting the orcs in advance.

You know, the human kingdoms have been without war for many years, and it is good to be able to warm up a bit before fighting the orcs.

As a result, Lothar immediately became a supporter of Ye Ting's plan, and even helped him persuade King Terenas of Lordaeron.

Originally, King Terenas did not support this kind of gambling that was useless and might not be beneficial, but Lothar's rationale struggle and Ye Ting's analysis based on interests still moved him.

And what moved him most was Ye Ting's reason.

"If the Amani trolls of the Hinterland and Zuaman are to be eliminated, since the armies of the rest of the human country are far away, the only thing that can be used is the army of Lordaeron. In this way, the favor of the Amani trolls is undoubtedly eliminated. All in your majesty's head, Lordaeron's status in the minds of Wildhammer dwarves and high elves will undoubtedly rise greatly. The benefits of such a goodwill for Lordaeron... don't need me to analyze it for your majesty."

What Ye Ting said is true. Even if the kings of the human kingdoms are now selflessly uniting together, even if Terenas is a famous sage, but as long as it is a ruler... No, as long as it is a human, there will be selfishness.

And Terenas’ selfishness is undoubtedly to maintain the alliance and expand Lordaeron’s influence, not to mention recreating the glory of the Arathi Empire, at least the same as Qi Huangong, long-term leader of the nations (of course, he did not know What Qi Huan Gong).

Under such circumstances, being able to have a higher influence on the foreign race will undoubtedly help him become the leader of the alliance-anyway, the dwarves and elves don't care who the leader of the alliance is-plus Ye Ting mentioned from For the rewards of the high elves and dwarves, even a wise king like Terenas was still tempted.

Chapter 0470: The Longitudinal and the Horizontal: Quel'Thalas (Part 1)

After getting the Lordaeron Kingdom side, the second stop Ye Ting was going to was Quel'Thalas.

Compared with the Wildhammer dwarves, the removal of the Amani trolls is more important to Quel'Thalas, and at this moment, Quel'Thalas has officially joined the Alliance, which can be regarded as a closer ally. The plan first makes sense through internal comparisons among allies.

Of course, this time he couldn't avoid seeking Alleria's help first.

Compared to the rulers in Silvermoon City, the rangers represented by Alleria have always been the main force against the Amani trolls in the jungle, and they also have the greatest hatred with the trolls. A group of people.

Although they also knew that Silvermoon City’s plan to dispose of the trolls and their leader Zul'jin was indeed based on long-term considerations, but the truth was one thing, and the feelings were another.

Let the dead enemies thrive in the Jungle of Zuaman, and let the enemy leaders live well in the POW camps. For a long time, the rangers have accumulated huge dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Therefore, Ye Ting's plan was a hit with them, and Alleria gave Ye Ting a deep hug on the spot.

In her opinion, Ye Ting has worked hard to connect the three forces and thanklessly complete this plan, obviously for her sake.

Such a good brother, where can I find a second one?
