Chapter 419 Why go to the execution ground? Go to the battlefield!
"Now both sides of the strait have assembled a large number of troops, and a decisive battle will break out at any time. Why are you bringing so many people there?" Yulin Blood Eagle asked.
"We will go only when the decisive battle breaks out! We are here to participate in the war." Alleria said matter-of-factly.
"Silly! This kind of decisive battle particularly requires the cooperation between the legions, and the requirements for unified command are even higher. There is nothing wrong with the Quel'Thalas Expeditionary Legion having the right to act independently, but what will you do after you participate? Do you want to listen to the Allies?
The command of the headquarters?
Let me tell you, the Arathi Strait defense line will definitely be broken through by the orcs, and the entire Arathi Kingdom will become a huge battlefield in the future. If the Allied Command asks your expeditionary force to independently defend one side of the strait, what will you do like last time?
Retreat? Then the responsibility for the defeat may be pushed to the expeditionary legion. Fight head-on? Can we, the rangers, be able to fight? Even if we can fight, how many people will we have to die? What we elves are good at is guerrilla warfare, not positional warfare!
If you must go, you might as well go to Proudmoore. Menethil Port is backed by the sea, you can withdraw your troops at any time, and it has tall city wall fortifications, which allows us elves to take full advantage of long-range attacks.
The most important thing is that there are not too many Alliance troops there. Once your expeditionary force goes in, it will at least be equal to Admiral Daelin, who commands Proudmoore, in terms of command. You are not afraid of being hacked by them, and my Hinterlands fleet is still there.
I can support you at any time." Yulin Blood Eagle said.
Alleria thought for a while and said, "Are you so sure that Proudmoore can defend it?"
"I'm not sure! But what does it matter? Daelin will definitely retreat if he can't defend it. Because his people have moved to the Hinterlands and there are 60,000 people, and he also has his own fleet, which can retreat at any time. We also have
Of course, the fleet will also retreat. Everyone has the same responsibility, and no one can blame anyone else.
Proudmoore is almost independently supporting the battle now. Isn't he extremely grateful for our help? Even if he can't hold on in the end, he will remember this favor!
There are legions from several countries in the Arassi Strait. One more expeditionary legion than ours is no more than the other, but the difference is huge."
Yulin Blood Eagle said: "As for the owl you want to transfer to Sylvanas, the troops can be sent over immediately.
But they don't need to take the sea route, they go directly through the central Hinterlands from here. When they reach the Eagle's Nest Mountain of the Wildhammer dwarves, they go out from the valley on the left and go all the way to the main road connecting Arathi and Alterac and then go south.
That’s it.
It may take a long time, but you are going to fight or die, so there is no need to rush to the execution ground! It is not to divide gold coins."
"Bah! You just can't speak normally, right? Why go to the execution ground? Go to the battlefield!" Alleria said.
"Okay! Okay! I was wrong!" Yulin Blood Eagle quickly nodded and admitted his mistake: "If you go to Proudmoore, I should be able to transfer at least two small aircraft carrier formations to you."
"Don't you have four small aircraft carrier formations?" Alleria asked.
"There should always be a small formation left in the Hinterlands! When the other formation comes back, I want to take them to Kalimdor." Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"What are you doing in Kalimdor?" Alleria asked.
Looking for a way that might relieve the high elves' addiction to magic, Sylvanas also knows this." Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"When will we go? How long will we go?" Aurelia asked again.
"We'll go after some things are arranged here in the Hinterlands. It may take half a year to a year." Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"Why go now?" Alleria said with a frown.
She was determined to go with him, but the time chosen by Yulin Blood Eagle was really not very good.
"Because the alliance army will lose the battle in the early stage!" Yulin Blood Eagle said with a smile: "If it loses the battle, I will not participate in the affairs of big shots like you. When the battle can be won, I will come back and follow you to take advantage of it.
Yeah, taking advantage of the situation is much more fun than fighting in a bloody battle."
"Who are you taking?" Alleria asked again.
"When Zuga and the others come back, it's enough for me to take the city guard and Zuga and the others." Yulin Blood Eagle said: "There are just too few people, which gives me a headache. I thought I couldn't go, but when I arrived at the dock
I just discovered that I can mobilize the city's main guard."
"What do you mean?" Aurelia asked doubtfully.
"A few days ago, I and the councilors of Queldenis City agreed to build a military fortress at the entrance of Queldenis Valley. This will expand the safe hinterland of Queldenis to the entire Queldenis Valley.
According to the original plan, the city guard was to be stationed at the fortress construction site. On the one hand, it was to protect the Wildhammer dwarf overseers, and on the other hand, it was to guard against the Evilbranch Trolls. However, when I arrived at the dock, I discovered that I had forgotten a troop.
That is the newly formed garrison force of the Navy General Staff. They can completely replace the City Guards there. So the City Guards can step aside and go to Kalimdo with me." Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"Building another fortress? How much labor and money will it cost?" Alleria said in surprise.
"A lot! A lot! But it's worth it!" Yulin Blood Eagle smiled happily: "You don't know! The Evil Thorn started to help me recruit the Evil Branch Trolls a few years ago to plant a large area of tung chestnut trees in the Queldanis Valley.
, now there are more than a thousand elves in the original elf village. They have been busy grafting the branches of the bread tree to the chestnut trees since a few years ago, and they haven't finished it yet! Do you know how many acres there are?"
"How many acres?" Aurelia asked.
"This is the number!" Yulin Blood Eagle gestured.
"Forty thousand acres?" Aurelia asked.
"400,000 acres!" Yulin Blood Eagle was even happier: "Even the ones grafted the year before last have begun to produce flower buds this year. It is estimated that a considerable part will be harvested in July and August. This is simply a big granary of 400,000 acres.
There will be more flowers and fruits next year.
I want to build a hundred villages in the Quel'danis Valley... Oh, no! I want to build three hundred elven villages like the ones here in the Seaside Plain. The Quel'danis Valley will be the valley where pure elves live in the future!
We need to plant a lot of breadfruit trees grafted with millet! If we plant tens of millions of acres of them, we won’t be able to finish all the food. Even if we eat one loaf, we won’t be able to finish it if two loaves are thrown away!” Yulin Blood Eagle said happily.
"So many?" Alleria was also surprised.
"Yes! I was shocked at the time. Even for the 400,000 acres of breadfruit trees, the construction of this fortress was completely worth it!"
The Yulin Blood Eagle said happily: "Next year! The best next year! The city of Queldenis won't have to call food from the dock, and maybe An can export tree people! I want more tree people to come to Queldenis.
Let them live in the valley and take care of the bread trees.”
"Then the construction of the docks and the city of Quel'denis will not be affected?" Alleria asked.
"Of course it will be affected! The trolls here will basically be transferred to build the fortress, and most of the construction of Queldanis City will also be stopped. They will all be transferred to the valley to build villages."
Yulin Blood Eagle said: "The council and the officials here in the Dock Plain are now allocating human resources and will start construction as soon as the Wildhammer design drawings come out."
