Chapter 592 The tried and tested method of transferring conflicts
The barrage laughed at Sharlayan's intimidation, and then began to seriously analyze the current situation of Lordaeron.
[Why do you feel that Lordaeron is so similar to a certain country here? There is a lot of mess in our country, but we still use old-fashioned contradictions to export to cover up the facts. 】
[emmmmm...you mean a lighthouse country of freedom and democracy?]
[Who else? It’s the country where the old guy clenches his fist and the big one is coming. 】
【There is one thing to say, it is true.】
[Don’t be too familiar with this method of using external conflicts to deflect internal conflicts. It’s a traditional art skill in Western countries.]
[Not to mention, Ah San next door has also learned this trick. When the new crown epidemic became serious, he began to hype up border conflicts with us and divert domestic conflicts. 】
[It’s useless to go around and around, the conflict is not resolved, it will break out again one day.]
【Others think this method is useful, what can you do? 】
[Don’t go that far, let’s go back to Lordaeron. 】
[Thinking about it now, the subsequent series of tragic events in Lordaeron were actually very inevitable.]
[The people could no longer survive. At this time, a sect that preached immortality was introduced to Lordaeron. Many people who were living in poverty had no choice but to throw themselves into the arms of the cursed sect with all their might. 】
[Yes, it was precisely because of the ugly appearance of Lordaeron when it swallowed the Kingdom of Alterac that they failed to receive strong support from the Alliance countries when they were in trouble. Instead, they were pushed down by everyone.]
[If Gilneas, Stromgarde and Kul Tiras had sent reinforcements in time, Lordaeron would not have fallen so quickly.]
[Coupled with the fact that Terenas was busy dreaming all day long, he neglected to teach Prince Arthas, and left him with full power to Uther, which led to Arthas eventually going astray. 】
[The Holy Knight teaches the Crown Prince, which seems unreliable even when I think about it.]
[Uther can teach him the virtues of the Paladin, but as the king of a country, he cannot govern the country well by relying on virtue alone. He also needs the necessary tactics. 】
[Alsace is so well protected that it cannot accept the rapid blackening of reality when it encounters a major blow. 】
[Even without the secret instigation of the Dread Lord, this largest country in mankind, which is beleaguered internally and externally, still looks like it is taking jujube pills. 】
[I have a hunch that Lordaeron in this time and space will be turbulent earlier in its original history.]
[Who can say for sure what the future will look like now? Let’s wait and see. 】
The efficiency of letter delivery in this era was very low. By the time Sharlayan received the letter sent from Andorhal through a secret channel, Onyxia had probably arrived at the Royal City of Lordaeron.
The task of exploring the situation in Lordaeron was temporarily handed over to the super spy Onyxia, and Sharlayan didn't think anyone in Lordaeron could do anything for her.
During the week of repairs to the territory, Kael'thas obtained the approval of the Silver Moon Council and officially issued a full-scale sea opening order.
In addition to the existing Sunsail Port, Quel'Thalas is expected to develop three more ports on the east and west coasts.
Sarlayan's "prediction" at the Lord's Conference came true. The three ports on the east coast were designated in Zul'Aman (the name is tentative), the Viscounty of Sangunar (the port name is to be determined) and the Earldom of Darth Visser.
(Port name to be determined).
Among the three ports in the west, one is located on Sunchaser Island where the Fasselin Magic Academy is located, and the other two are both in the southern part of the forest. They are respectively selected at the Tower of Windrunner and Shalandis Island west of Golden Mist Village.
.
The nobles who had started making preparations in advance immediately cheered and cheered. Those with money provided money and others provided people, and they tried their best to contribute their own efforts to the construction of various ports.
Sarlayan did not pay attention to this matter at all. After recovering from his injuries, he prepared to leave for Boralus.
Although he was called an envoy, Sarlayan did not intend to sail to Kul Tiras with much fanfare through official channels, but to visit in a private capacity.
Not expected to stay in Boralus for long, both Valeera and Stellagosa were left at home to attend to other chores.
Originally, Sarlayan wanted to set off alone, but he couldn't bear the pressure from little Tina, so he could only take her through the portal.
Tina's transformation into an elf beauty at the Honorable Meeting was just a flash in the pan. After the meeting, she transformed back into a dwarf, sitting on Sarlayan's shoulders and swinging her short legs happily as usual.
Compared with the vitality I felt the last time I came to Boralus, the capital of Kul Tiras seems a little restless at this time.
Tinagosa looked around curiously: "Salayan, why are everyone here so restless? What happened?"
Sarlayan thoughtfully followed the gazes of a large number of citizens and looked overseas: "I guess they are worried about the decisive sea battle with Zandalari."
Before setting off from Unicorn Town, Sarlayan received the information Valeera obtained through the Backlight Blade.
Starting yesterday morning, the long-standing confrontation between the Kul Tiras and Zandalari navies finally began the outpost of the final decisive battle.
Both sides accumulated hundreds of large and small warships near the battlefield, and fought fiercely in the strait between Kul Tiras and the Zandalari Islands.
Compared with this unprecedented scale naval battle, Lordaeron's previous privateer fleet of only a dozen ships was completely insignificant.
Zandalari was once the world overlord that ruled the entire Azeroth, but was severely damaged in the all-out war with the Yaqir Empire.
This war resulted in the Troll Empire being surpassed by the newly rising Night Empire, and their dignity was even trampled under the feet of the proud Queen Azshara and mercilessly ravaged.
After the War of the Ancients, the ancient continent of Kalimdor was divided, and the Dark Night Empire ceased to exist.
After thousands of years of cultivation, Zandalari thought that the rain had passed and the sky had cleared up, and he was fine again, so he tried to support the forest trolls and restore the prestige of the giant troll empire.
It is a pity that they died before they were ready. Under the joint campaign of the high elven kingdom Quel'Thalas and the human empire Arathor, the forest trolls and the Zandalar coalition were completely defeated.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After that, the blood trolls on the Zandalari Islands began to cause trouble, and the Zandalari trolls had to return their main energy to their homeland.
In order to save his mother's soul, Sharlayan accidentally weakened the blood trolls, giving Zandalari the confidence to expand externally again.
However, they had just released the golden fleet when they were intercepted by Kul Tiras.
Kul Tiras' strength in land warfare is far inferior to that of the Zandalari Empire, which has a profound foundation. However, in terms of naval warfare, Kul Tiras has never been afraid of any country since its founding.
In order to compete for maritime supremacy, the maritime confrontation and dispute between Kul Tiras and Zandalar have been going on for more than a year.
The losses suffered by Zandalari are not yet clear. Kul Tiras' original development plan has been severely hindered, and it has even affected the relationship between Kul Tiras and Quel'Thalas.
After returning from Northrend, Daelin first went to Dalaran and slobbered all over Arthas, who was stalking his precious daughter. After that, he finally made up his mind to fight against Zandalari's golden fleet.
One end.
Daelin personally led the fleet to fight on the front line, and he had heard about Quel'Thalas being attacked by privateers.
"Hmph! That old boy Terenas is becoming more and more despicable in his behavior."
Under the guidance of Queen Catherine, who stayed behind in the palace, Sarlayan transformed into a gryphon and set off with Tinagosa, and found Daelin's ship, also a member of the Kul Tiras Navy, at the southwest corner of the Kul Tiras Islands.
The main flagship is the Royal Power of the Sea.
As the general flagship of Kul Tiras, the Royal Power of the Sea is undoubtedly the warship with the most advanced design concepts and the most powerful firepower in this era.
The Royal Power of the Sea is a standard three-masted sailing ship, a full circle larger than the Mayflower, the flagship of the privateer fleet.
This battleship is equipped with 26 42-pound guns (caliber 17.4 cm), 28 18-pound guns (13.1 cm) and 44 small-caliber 6-pound guns. It is an out-and-out maritime fortress.
According to the barrage, the Royal Power of the Sea is a relatively standard Galen sailboat, which is a very classic gunboat style in the sailing era.
Compared with the Spanish galleons, which are more focused on boarding battles, the bow and stern of the Galenic galleons are not so towering and will not be easily hit during long-range artillery battles.
As a negative example, the ship design of the Zandalari Golden Fleet is closer to the Spanish galleons. The design concept is to engage in melee combat and maximize the physical advantages of the trolls.
The decisive naval battle between Kul Tiras and Zandalari is very similar to the Anglo-Spanish naval battle mentioned in the barrage. Two powerful navies with different concepts of naval warfare demonstrated their respective ways on the sea.
But... judging from the current battle situation, Kul Tiras' side clearly has the upper hand.
Zandalari's ships were all heavy warships, carrying a large number of sailors, and their steering was not very flexible. They were beaten very badly by Kul Tiras' smart warships that mainly engaged in artillery warfare, giving them no chance to get close.
Although the war has not yet been completely decided, the situation is actually very clear.
If Zandalari didn't have other trump cards, they would definitely lose this naval battle.
