World of Warcraft: Reviving Stromgarde - Chapter 238

c234 The Northern Expedition begins

The most powerful and ancient kingdom of the human race in Azeroth, the main city of the Kingdom of Stormgarde, Stromgarde, is extremely prosperous. Thousands of warships are docked at the port of Stromgarde. A large number of soldiers ready to go board the warships, and the workers also carry supplies on board.

One of the warships is unprecedentedly huge, and unlike ordinary wooden warships, this steel warship is made entirely of hard alloy steel.

You know, there has never been such a huge steel warship in Azeroth so far. Except for the steamships of the goblins, the rest are wooden ships.

The King of the Covenant and the Commander of the Azeroth Alliance, Galen Trollbane, is standing on the board of this warship and sighing, “This warship is really good. Fortunately, it was finally completed before the Northern Expedition.”

Although the warships of Azeroth cannot be compared with the warships of Galen’s previous life, the “Sword of Trollbane” jointly built by the Kingdom of Kul Tiras and the Iron Warship Technology is still the most cutting-edge warship in Azeroth.

“Yes, I never thought of transforming the warship into a steel warship, but this has greatly improved the defense of the warship. Those goblin gadgets have also solved the problem of the power system.” Tanred, who was wearing the unique uniform of the admiral, responded with great emotion.

Admiral Tanred Proudmoore of the Kingdom of Kul Tiras was also on this warship. He naturally had his own flagship, but for the safety of the King of the Covenant, Galen, he chose to serve as the captain of the “Sword of Trollbane” to ensure that Galen could safely arrive in Northrend during this voyage.

In fact, Galen no longer needs to lead the expedition in person. The regent prince and the Supreme Marshal of Stromgarde, Danath Trollbane, originally wanted to serve as the commander of this expedition so that Galen could spend time with his wife and the newly born child.

Inheriting the blood of the Trollbane family and the Menethil family, and having the right to inherit the Kingdom of Stormgarde, the Kingdom of Lordaeron and the Kingdom of Alterac, the little prince was named Thoradin Trollbane by Garin.

Thoradin is Garin’s hope that when the little prince grows up, the major human kingdoms of Azeroth can restore the unified rule of the empire like in ancient times.

Northrend is very dangerous, but for Garin, a time traveler, it is full of opportunities, which is why he wants to lead the expedition in person.

At the same time, letting Arthas escape successfully in Tirisfal Glades has always been a great regret for Garin, and he will not miss the opportunity to personally end Arthas.

The Silver Northern Expedition and the Scarlet Vanguard have already started, so for Garin, there is no danger in going to Northrend.

After learning about the actions of the Scourge, the expeditionary forces returning to the Kingdom of Stormgarde also want to join this expedition to Northrend.

However, it was directly rejected by Garin, and Garin’s excuse to Danas and the expeditionary forces was also very simple, that is, the Alliance expeditionary forces had just returned from Outland, and the expeditionary forces who had been away from their homes for more than 20 years needed to be resettled.

The Alliance expeditionary forces have been guarding Outland for the Alliance for more than 20 years. They don’t owe their kingdom anything, and it is even the human kingdoms that owe them.

Garin really didn’t want these heroes who had finally survived to go on an expedition to another strange land before they had stayed in their hometown for a long time, and they might die there.

This time, those who followed Garin to the expedition to Northrend were all young people who volunteered to participate in this glorious expedition. Of course, almost all members of the Thoradin Legion took the initiative to follow Garin on the warship to Northrend.

The reason why the fleet has not set off yet is that the supplies for the expedition to Northrend have not been fully transported.

Northrend is a continent of ice and snow. Although there are also warm areas like the Sholazar Basin, the expeditionary forces to fight the Scourge must fight in the ice and snow.

Therefore, the supplies this time must be sufficient. Garin had prepared other supplies several years in advance. During the second Quicksand War and the trip to Outland, the supplies prepared in advance by the Covenant made Garin always one step ahead of the Alliance and the Horde.

And the supplies that were constantly transported this time were actually supplies for keeping warm and warm.

In order to prepare for this, Garin even found the Wildhammer dwarves of Hinterland and obtained a large amount of charcoal through the primeval forest of Hinterland.

When the supplies were almost ready, the expeditionary fleet was about to set sail from the port of Stromgarde. Garin’s voice echoed over the port of Stromgarde through the loudspeaker:

“Warriors of the Covenant, the warships are about to set sail, and we are about to leave our homes and head for the far north.”

“Say goodbye to your families, sons and daughters of the Kingdom of Stromgarde. I can’t guarantee that you will all come back alive, but I can guarantee that I will treat your families well, and I can also guarantee that you will die with honor and never let your bodies be desecrated by the undead!”

“This time, we will surely win. We will go deep into the Icecrown Glacier and purify the Lich King and his minions!”

“For the Covenant!”

The Arathi were not afraid of death, so Garin directly said that he could not guarantee that he would bring them all back alive.

It was these words without any hypocrisy that aroused the blood in the hearts of the Arathi. Both men and women, young and old, responded loudly to Garin’s “For the Covenant!”

The warriors said their final farewell and then resolutely embarked on the journey to Northrend.

The warship started and slowly sailed away from the port. At this moment, Garin suddenly sensed something. He looked back and found that his queen, Jialiya Menethil, was holding the little prince Thoradin who was being raped and standing on a high ground in the port.

“I will be back safely, wait for me!” Garin waved excitedly at Jialiya.

Without the loudspeaker, Jialiya naturally couldn’t hear it, but she still waved at Garin with tears in her eyes.

If it weren’t for Garin, she might not be able to get out of the shadow of the country’s destruction and the family’s demise. Now she finally experienced the warmth of the family again, but her husband was leaving again.

The only comfort was that she still had his child with her.

Jialiya looked at the little prince Thoradin who was sleeping peacefully, and an excited smile appeared on her face. The bloodline of the Menethil family was not cut off, and he was the common king of the three northern countries in the future.

Garin didn’t want to accompany Jialiya and her son, but Azeroth was full of dangers. If he took a wrong step, he would fall into an irretrievable situation.

This is the mission of men. They will use their lives to defend their families.

I will update it slowly if I see that some people still want to watch it.
