Chapter 207: The ancient kingdom gradually awakening

Chapter 207 The ancient kingdom gradually awakening

Charlemagne's words stunned the smiling Kael'thas, and then he, Osis and the other three turned their heads to look at Anastrian who was sitting aside.

The Sun King just smiled and shook his head, "Don't look at me, this matter is up to you to decide."

Charlemagne was a little surprised by Anasterian's attitude, but considering the previous transfer of Flame Strike and the gradual fading out of the Sun King in the past six months, he could probably guess in his heart that the old king should be ready to abdicate up.

Kelthas nodded under his father's encouraging eyes, then turned to look at each other with Osis, Muric and Likert.

"Then, I would like to know how much profit can be gained from sending troops to Quel'Thalas this time, and how much loss will the army take out?"

Hearing Kael'thas' solemn inquiry, Charlemagne nodded slightly and began to explain the gains and losses.

"First of all, it is about our army. The Dawn Vanguard Corps and Sunstrider Wings have rarely participated in actual combat since their establishment, and their battlefield experience is obviously lacking."

"Now Azeroth is becoming more peaceful as a whole, and there are not many battlefields for them to conduct actual combat exercises. The previous battle against the Fal'dorei can only be regarded as a small test. In the process of helping the tauren migrate, we will inevitably fight with The chasing centaurs engage in combat, and these battles can play a very important role in training troops."

"Because the centaur's weapons are very primitive, there are paladins in both troops, so they shouldn't suffer too much loss."

Kel'thas rested his chin on his hand and said thoughtfully, "Are you training soldiers... This is a good focus, but if it's just like this, our investment and harvest are completely out of proportion. Is there anything those tauren can give us in return?"

"Of course!"

Charlemagne said confidently, "Although the tauren have been suppressed and beaten by centaurs for many years, this does not mean that their combat effectiveness is poor. It is simply because of the restraint between races and arms. opportunity to win them over as allies."

Muric frowned at this time and asked, "How do you say that? Both races should be relatively primitive in craftsmanship. Could it be that there are other factors that can affect victory or defeat?"

"Yes, because of the special body structure, the centaur has the upper body of a humanoid creature and four legs like a horse, so it can run as fast as the wind. Although the tauren are tall and strong, they can't catch up with these centaurs in terms of mobility. , being suppressed and beaten is also common sense."

This is just like when Mongolia used cavalry, archery and wandering tactics to suppress infantry and cavalry throughout Europe. Mongolian cavalry archers who use multi-horse tactics can keep their horses in the best condition at any time, hanging the enemy far away to fly kites, European armies simply could not catch up.

The tauren race has great strength and endurance. The biggest disadvantage is that they are relatively bulky and cannot keep up with the centaurs who come and go like the wind.

The Kodo beast, the mount used by the Tauren for generations, has first-class load capacity and impact force, but under the drag of its huge body, the speed is really not fast, nor can it keep up with the centaur's footsteps.

Fat MP Likert thought for a while and asked, "Earl Theron, do you mean that these tall and strong tauren can become excellent meat shields in the front row in the future, and reduce the battle damage for our high elves in the war?"

Charlemagne nodded, "That's almost what it means. Now that the Burning Legion is about to move, we must be fully prepared for a war that may happen at any time in the future."

"Besides, the tauren have also participated in the War of the Ancients. As an ancient ally of our elves, it is not a shame to form an alliance with them, so I suggest sending an army to assist the tauren in their migration. The benefits we will gain in the future will be greater than the investment. Much more."

Now that the stubborn old king is retiring deliberately, and the young and energetic Prince Kael'thas is beginning to rule, the formerly stagnant senior management of Quel'Thalas gradually has a glimmer of vitality.

If it was before, Anasterian would have heard that Charlemagne wanted to form an alliance with the Tauren, and probably would not have brought this issue to the parliament for discussion. Even if he wanted to discuss Darkan and others, he would strongly oppose it Racial alliance.

Now that Darkan is dead, his subordinates have fallen and scattered, and the two original allies are also afraid of being held accountable and resigned. For the time being, there are only three people left in the Silver Moon Council, which is dominated by Orsis.

After communicating with his nephew Sean many times, the old morning walker also intentionally let go of the extremely conservative political attitude of Quel'Thalas, and his gradually changing political ideas were slowly conveyed to Muric and Lee Curt.

At this time, although the three members of the Silver Moon Council were still frowning and thinking about the issue of gains and losses, they did not simply veto it. This is already a huge improvement for Quel'Thalas, which has been conservative for thousands of years.

Prince Kael'thas had heard Charlemagne mention the matter of recruiting the tauren as early as when he was in Astrana, and now he is more just singing a double reed in cooperation with his future minister.

Seeing that the three members of the council hesitated, he did not urge them, and continued to give the three of them time to think. By the way, he sent someone to notify Liadrin and Saladre, the commanders of the Morning Herald Legion and Sunstrider Legion, to arrive by magic message. The palace came to discuss matters.

After all, the legion proposed by Charlemagne is related to them, and the opinions of the two legion leaders are also very important.

Charlemagne is not very worried about Liadrin. This future sister-in-law is a belligerent woman, and she has expressed her thoughts to Lor'themar and Charlemagne many times in recent years.

"Today's Quel'Thalas is too peaceful. It's a pity that the newly formed Dawn Vanguard Legion doesn't have many chances to fight."

This kind of view is very feminine, and it is in line with the conventional thinking of the generals. After all, just like no king would dislike the territory of his country too wide, the generals also hope that they can get countless meritorious service.

And this point was also vividly and exquisitely reflected in Saladre who came later.

"I agree to send troops! In the last battle against the Faldorei, I also noticed some problems in Wings of the Sunstrider. I hope to test it again through actual combat."

Then he turned to Charlemagne and said, "Earl Theron also gave me a lot of opinions after that battle, and I hope to verify these ideas one by one."

Since Sunrise Wing's barracks at the foot of Sunscar Peak is very close to Charlemagne's territory, he has often traveled to Saladre in the past six months. To see if it can be realized in this magical world.

Osis finally made up his mind after the two legion chiefs expressed their views. Although Muric and Likert still had some resistance to sending troops to help foreigners, under the leadership of the old seniors, they finally passed the parliamentary resolution and agreed to send troops.

Now the changes in the upper echelon of Quel'Thalas are almost visible to the naked eye. The old king retired behind the scenes, Dar'Kan died, and the efficiency of the entire upper echelon is obviously much faster than before.

Charlemagne felt a little emotional about this. Quel'Thalas, who had been asleep for thousands of years, was finally about to open his eyes again. I hope it won't be too late to wake up.
