The orc fleet had no choice but to raise the flag and surrender in desperate situation. While Daelin sent people to collect the prisoners, he also sent a flag to the mysterious reinforcements, inviting their commander to meet on his ship.
Just five minutes after Daelin raised the flag, the Zandalari command ship responded clearly that they agreed to the invitation to meet.
Li De, who was standing on the dragon's head, saw that the battlefield had begun to be cleaned below. Dai Lin asked for a meeting again and immediately patted the dragon's horn.
"I'm sorry. Please forgive my rude behavior before. Now you are free."
After that, Li De jumped back to the Dinghai. To Li De's expectation, the red dragon did not leave directly. He first looked back at the six companions gathered together, and then lowered the flying altitude.
"Thank you, strong human being. After you have dealt with your own affairs, I hope you can talk to us."
Although he was a little surprised, Li De still agreed to Red Dragon's request.
After receiving Li De's promise, Red Dragon nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, we'll wait for you on the island in the north."
After that, the red dragon turned around to join his companions and flew towards the Chaoluo Island in the north. The dragons whose attitude was unclear flew away, indicating that the battle was completely over.
The pressure on the people on the Dinghai was immediately relieved, and they all cheered with great pride, because it was them who reversed the situation of this naval battle in one fell swoop. Nix even came over with great satisfaction and suggested to Li De.
"I thought of an awesome model name for the main gun. How about calling it 'Dragon's Sore' from now on?"
Knicks is the chief designer of the main gun, and he was also the one who made that magical shot. Li De can understand his mood at the moment, but now he has more important things to do.
"This is a good suggestion, but let's discuss it when I come back."
A small boat was lowered from the Dinghai, and Li De took two guards on it to join Talanji and the others.
Dai Lin watched all this silently on the boat. On the small boat coming from the opposite side, he could tell that it was headed by the human officer, which made him even more curious about Li De's identity.
Li De and others boarded Daelin's battleship, and under the leadership of the sailors, they arrived at the command room. It had been arranged into a simple living room, where Daelin and Kurdran Wildhammer were waiting.
"Marshal of Kul Tiras: Daelin Proudmoore thanks you for your help. Please explain your purpose."
After the two parties sat down, Dai Lin expressed his gratitude sincerely, but at the same time his eyes were full of doubts.
"Hello, Marshal Daelin, former captain of the Kingdom of Stormwind Lid Victory, I would like to express my sincere greetings to you. These friends are Princess Talanji and Lord Ral of Zandalari. They represent Zandalari.
Come to help the Alliance fight against the invaders."
Li De threw out such explosive content as soon as he came up, which caught Daelin off guard. Kurdran Wildhammer, who was standing next to Daelin, laughed.
"Warm welcome. Thanks to you just now, those giant dragons are too difficult to deal with."
Daelin coughed lightly and reminded Kurdran not to be too enthusiastic, but in such an occasion, his cough seemed a bit deliberate.
"It turns out that your Excellency once served in the Kingdom of Stormwind, so no wonder you waved the lion flag. So in what capacity are you talking to me now?"
Before Li De could speak, Kurdran showed some dissatisfaction. Wildhammer dwarves have a simple sense of morality and a warm heart.
"Hey, Marshal Dai Lin, I just saved your son's life. Isn't it the way to treat guests when you ask questions like this?"
Daelin looked at Kurdran helplessly. The leader of the Wildhammer dwarves was really not suitable for politics. The other party saved Derek's life, of course Daelin was grateful. If the other party was just passing by, he would have no other intention of helping.
After meeting them, Dai Lin would naturally show great enthusiasm.
But since the other party stated that the meeting was at the national level, as a member of the alliance, he must put aside his personal emotions and communicate in the most rational manner.
Li De took a deep look at Dai Lin. He was a little surprised by the monarch's rational character. It seemed that it was the death of his eldest son that made him lose his rationality. Thinking of this, Li De couldn't help but sigh, the collapse of rationality.
, often only in a moment.
"Before answering your question, I want to tell you my story. A year and a half ago, when all the soldiers and civilians of Stormwind City were evacuating by ship. Because pirates attacked the kingdom's fleet, the ship I was guarding deviated.
Course. Pushed by ocean currents to the continent of Kalimdor on the other side of the Endless Sea.
The team I led and the civilians on the ship struggled to survive in the desert, and finally established a new home in the desert, and I am now their lord."
Hearing what Li De said, Dai Lin looked thoughtful.
"Yes, I know what you're talking about. It was me who led the fleet in the end to help the Stormwind Kingdom repel those pirates. In the end, when counting the losses, Lothar did say that one ship and a thousand people were completely missing.
."
After confirming Li De's identity, Dai Lin was not as wary of Li De as before.
"Although we started a new life on the other side of the sea, I have never forgotten that our homeland is still in suffering. With the help of local goblin friends, we transformed the ship into a warship, which is the one I am currently riding on.
ship."
Dai Lin was stunned, as if he was listening to a book from heaven. Living in another continent, or in the most barren desert, he could transform an ordinary passenger ship into a warship and return to the battlefield. What kind of firm belief does it take?
For a moment, Dai Lin couldn't help but be in awe of Li De.
"Actually, at first, I felt that my idea was unrealistic because our power was too weak. I only have a hundred soldiers and one battleship under my command. Such a power can't do anything on the battlefield.
At this time, fate guided me to meet friends of Zandalari. Their wise men had a deep understanding of the threat posed by the orcs to Azeroth.
Zandalar wanted to send troops to help the Alliance eliminate the threat of the orcs to the world, but they also knew the racial gap between the trolls and the humans, so they proposed a plan to form an alliance with me, hoping to let me be the middleman."
What Li De said made Talanji and Lal, who were sitting nearby, feel a little ashamed. They knew best in their hearts that everything Li De said was the opposite.
If it weren't for Li De, Zandalari would probably just sit back and watch, helplessly witnessing Amani embarking on a path of no return. But now both of them know why Li De said this, so they are fully cooperating.
Performed by Li De.
"Yes, Zandalar are deeply aware of the threat posed by the orcs to Azeroth. If they are allowed to develop, one day they will no longer be satisfied with wreaking havoc on the continent. Zandalari must be prepared for danger in times of peace.
."
Talanji was truly a born politician, and he was able to speak sincerely at this time. Even Daelin didn't see the flaw.
Of course, what Talanji said at this time was not completely false. During the month she spent under the protection of Hanhaidu, she saw too many things beyond her knowledge. Now, she cannot be said to fully agree with Li De's philosophy.
, and basically most of them agree.
As one of the top leaders of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance, Daelin stood up solemnly, saluted Talanji and Ral and said.
"On behalf of the alliance, I sincerely thank you."
Li De was very satisfied with Dai Lin's attitude, but he knew that this was not enough and he needed to add fuel to the fire.
"Marshal Dai Lin, I have an unkind request."
Dai Lin looked at Li De curiously. The former Stormwind Kingdom officer in front of him was his son's savior. Dai Lin thought that as long as the other person's request was not too excessive, he would try his best to satisfy it.
"His Majesty Rastakhan, the God King of Zandalari, hopes that I will be the intermediary between Zandalari and the Alliance.
However, I am clearly aware of the shortcomings of my qualifications and status. Agreeing to this request before was just a helpless move. But now we are fortunate to meet you.
I sincerely hope that you can serve as the intermediary and introduce Her Royal Highness the Princess and Lord to His Majesty Terenas to promote cooperation between the Alliance and Zandalari.
We must wipe out the invaders on the mainland as soon as possible and restore true peace to the world."
Dai Lin originally thought that Li De wanted to benefit himself, but after listening to Li De's words, he became excited. This was not for Li De's benefit, it was clearly a big gift to him.
Ocean civilization is always more open and tolerant than mainland civilization. Dai Lin actually has no strong resistance to alliances with other races.
In the original time and space, Dai Lin would attack the orcs to the extreme because the pain of losing his son made him lose his rationality.
The openness and tolerance that belonged to the marine civilization was later inherited by Dailin's daughter Jaina in another form. However, the tolerance that Jaina inherited went to another extreme and became a world without a sense of boundaries.
tolerate.
Perhaps, this is also related to the fact that Dai Lin, who experienced the pain of losing his son, was so depressed that he was absent from family education.
Of course, none of this should happen now. All Dai Lin wants to do now is to promote cooperation and add another strong ally to the alliance. At the same time, if he promotes cooperation, his status in the alliance will also be improved.
Although it may not be as good as Lothar, who inherited the blood of Thoradin and could talk to the high elves, it was still better than the conservative King Greymane of Gilneas.
"I agree to your request, don't worry, I will try my best to speak kindly in front of Terenas and try my best to promote cooperation."
Speaking of Terenas, Lal thought of something on the side and quickly interjected.
"By the way, on the way here, we captured two ships of the tribe and were escorted from the rear. From the mouths of those captives, we obtained important information.
Orgrim took part of his troops and launched a surprise attack on the city of Lordaeron! Should we rush to Lordaeron as soon as possible for rescue?"
Daelin was stunned by Ral's words, and then he and Kurdran Wildhammer looked at each other, and they both laughed.
"Your Excellency, thank you for your kindness. It's just that your information is out of date. Just three days ago, Marshal Lothar, who returned for reinforcements, and the defenders in Lordaeron defeated Orgrim. Now the remnants of the orcs are
It has fled south, and Marshal Lothar is leading his troops to pursue him."
"How could it be so fast?!"
Everyone couldn't believe it. It was an army of nearly 20,000 people. Even including the delay in getting the information, it only took half a month to complete the attack. How could they be defeated so quickly?!
Dai Lin smiled and shook his head.
"Yeah, I didn't expect it either. But that's the fact. Maybe the long-distance attacks on the land battlefield and the successive defeats have made the morale of the orcs unimaginably low? In short, the war should be over soon.
"
However, Li De was not as optimistic as Dai Lin.
"The large-scale battle on the frontal battlefield should be almost over, but it is still early for the war to truly end."
