"Guidelines?
What kind of guidance do you want?
Do you want me to help you make up your mind to become the Queen of Lordaeron, and then hold the banner high to avenge your brother who committed patricide and mother murder?
Or do you plan to abandon or even forget these maddening hatred and sorrow, just want to stay in Stranglethorn Vale and maintain the relatively easy life now, and never return to Lordaeron in the north, which has turned into a scorched earth?
Or maybe you just want to escape and want me to make this important decision for you that will affect the rest of your life?"
Zuo Si stretched out his hand to gently hold up Jialiya's delicate and beautiful face, and looked into her eyes full of pain and sorrow.
As for the massacre that Arthas caused in the Kingdom of Lordaeron, he had obviously seen it clearly through the eyes of those believers and priests.
This was known even before any refugees reached Dalaran.
The reason why Navy Commander Dai Lin was able to arrive as soon as possible and rescue thousands of refugees by sea was actually because of Zuo Si's instructions.
Not only that, the church has also taken advantage of the fact that it can enter any country in the alliance to preach at will in recent months, purchasing a large amount of food from the rich Tirisfal Glades and hoarding it in the towns and ferries of Silverpine Forest, and also used it for transportation.
The East Weald refugee boats were also diverted.
In addition, a large amount of holy water can remove any natural disasters and plagues that the fleeing people may be infected with, so there are not a lot of casualties like in the original timeline.
Not to mention the terrible situation where people were constantly transformed into undead by the plague during the escape process, and eventually the people in Silver Pine Forest were also infected on a large scale.
Now these refugees are retreating in an orderly manner towards the relatively safe rear areas by land and sea.
Almost half of them will be transported by ship to Stranglethorn Vale to start a new life, and the remaining part will temporarily retreat to the territory of the Kingdom of Lordaeron in Hillsbrad with the help of Alliance reinforcements for resettlement.
If all goes well, it should be possible to save at least a few hundred thousand to more than a million people from the ravages of the Scourge.
Because Zuo Si knew very well that the next stage of Alsace's attack would be Quel'Thalas, the home of the high elves, occupying the Sunwell to obtain unlimited arcane energy in order to resurrect the great lich Kel'Thuzad.
This also means that the main force of the Scourge Legion should concentrate its efforts northward rather than southward in a short period of time.
It will be after Kel'Thuzad is resurrected that the Scourge's troops will point towards Dalaran, where the Book of Medivh is kept.
As long as you make good use of this gap period, you can send a large number of people from the Kingdom of Lordaeron to the relatively safe rear.
Once Kel'Thuzad successfully opens the portal to summon the vanguard of the Burning Legion led by Archimonde, they will immediately set off for the distant continent of Kalimdor to wash away the shame of being expelled from this world ten thousand years ago.
At that time, the main force of the Scourge Legion in the Eastern Continent will also launch a cross-sea expedition under the command of the Dread Lord.
With the end of the Battle of Mount Hyjal and Archimonde being blown to death by the huge energy contained in the World Tree, the Lich King Ner'zhul will blatantly break away from the Legion's control, triggering Kil'jaeden's wrath.
The latter will order Illidan to use the Eye of Sargeras to launch a destructive long-range magic attack on the entire Icecrown Glacier.
Ner'zhul, who feels threatened, will urgently recall Arthas to completely end the expansion of the Undead Scourge in the eastern continent.
At this point, the destruction caused by the undead natural disaster has come to an end.
Therefore, Zuo Si has always believed that the most destructive period of the Scourge was precisely the first wave of all-out offensive when everyone lacked understanding of it, that is, who was in charge of the process from Alsace's father-killing to seizing the Book of Medivh?
Who died in the conquest.
Once everyone began to understand the weaknesses of the Lich King, Plague, and Undead, the threat posed by the Scourge began to plummet.
Later, the Alliance and the Horde went on an expedition to Northrend. The fact that they were able to break into Icecrown Citadel with only a small number of troops and assist the camp leaders in defeating Arthas's head was the best proof.
What Zuo Si has to do now is to preserve the vitality of the alliance kingdoms as much as possible, and use people's fear of plague and the undead to expand the influence of the Church of the God of Contract, preferably to completely replace the Church of Holy Light as the mainstream faith.
As for whether to end it personally, he has not yet decided.
"I...I don't know either...
I am neither a powerful warrior nor a paladin like Arthas, nor have I ever received any combat training.
From the very beginning, my father hoped that I could be a perfect princess who is beautiful and quiet in people's minds, and then marry a powerful prince and nobleman according to his request at some time in the future.
So I know absolutely nothing about military affairs and war.
I don’t even understand what Arthas went through when he was investigating the plague to become what he is now.
Maybe what Gianna said a few years ago was right.
I am just a flower that grew up in a greenhouse. I cannot adapt to the cruel natural environment in the wild. I can only survive by staying in a greenhouse.
Once I leave, I will quickly wither and wither, and eventually die miserably.
The freedom and love I yearn for are nothing more than unrealistic fantasies in my youth.
Although she was madly in love with her civilian-born husband, she was even willing to die for him.
But as the separation time gets longer and longer, my feelings towards him become more and more unfamiliar and cold.
Even if we meet occasionally, I don't know what to say.
Even after learning about the tragedy that happened in the Kingdom of Lordaeron, I didn't think of him at the first moment, but just wanted to save my daughter."
Caliya opened her heart completely without any cover-up, and said all the words hidden deep in her mind.
As a "good girl" who has been accustomed to obeying her father's arrangements since she was a child, she has never been an independent person.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The most courageous and rebellious thing you have ever done in your life may be to fall in love with a civilian during the period when hormone secretion is at its peak, and then risk huge amounts of money.
The risk of marrying and having children secretly in private.
Anyone who has had emotional experience knows how short the shelf life of love is.
All relationships will start with mutual affection and reserve, and quickly turn into an irrational madness.
Under the influence of hormones, many usually very sensible people will involuntarily do some stupid things and say many disgusting words and oaths that will later make them feel embarrassed.
But as the two people gradually become more and more familiar, whether it is a few months or a year or two, the passion will inevitably fade quickly.
Those shortcomings that were originally ignored due to the influence of hormones will gradually amplify, until conflicts accumulate to a certain extent and violent quarrels or even physical conflicts occur.
If this stage is not handled properly, it may lead to breakup and divorce.
Usually, if you want to get through it, you usually rely on your responsibilities to your family and children, as well as social pressure and living conditions to endure it until both of you start to get used to it, accept and tolerate each other's shortcomings, and turn from fierce confrontation to
For ordinary daily life.
Therefore, couples who truly last for a long time often have nothing to do with the so-called "love" and "happiness".
On the contrary, it is closer to the reward gained by persevering through pain and suffering until the end.
As the only princess of the most powerful human kingdom in the Eastern Continent, Caliya's life is undoubtedly very rich, and the people she comes into contact with on daily basis are basically princes, princesses and polite nobles from various countries.
Such a growing environment led to the fact that although she once yearned for freedom and love, she even secretly married a commoner and had children.
But when the passion faded and she began to re-examine her choices, the princess of Lordaeron suddenly discovered that the husband she loved so madly was actually far from perfect as she imagined.
Quite the opposite!
As a result of his commoner background, he neither has the elegant demeanor of the nobles nor does he know much interest in life. He spends most of his time doing boring and heavy work every day.
I often come back from a day's work so exhausted that I don't even have the energy to take a shower. I'm slovenly and smelling pungent and sour all day long.
The originally handsome face quickly became rough due to the wind and sun, just like that of a middle-aged and elderly man in his forties or fifties.
All these changes have completely shattered Caliya's beautiful illusions about love, family and marriage.
This is why she completely separated from her civilian husband shortly after giving birth to her daughter.
Although the apparent reason was to conceal that the child had royal blood, secretly she was tired of it and could not bear the changes that had occurred in her husband after the passion faded.
But as a saying goes, you have to walk the road you choose even with tears in your eyes.
Caliya, who already had a child, had no room for regret.
What's more, she was unwilling to bow to the powerful King Terenas, let alone admit that she was wrong.
This is also the truest portrayal of how most cross-class marriages will inevitably end up in misfortune.
Whether it is the story between Prince Charming and Cinderella, or the script of a poor young man marrying a beautiful girl and reaching the pinnacle of life, it is really difficult to have a happy ending.
Because the growth environment leads to huge differences in the worldview, values, and outlook on life between the two people, conflicts will be particularly violent when conflicts break out after passion.
It is precisely because she regrets her only willful choice that Caliya feels panic, fear, and subconsciously wants to escape when faced with a major decision.
Relying on the mental perception ability obtained from the Fear Demon King, Zuo Si easily noticed the subconscious thoughts of the princess with the attributes of a wife in front of him. He gently stroked her cheek and neck with his fingers and asked meaningfully: "Do you know that you and Ji
Anna, what is the biggest difference between Alsace? Or why you can only be a flower in the greenhouse, but they can do what they want?"
"Why?"
Caliya asked subconsciously.
