Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

Chapter 171 21. Ah, the sea is full of water
"Tal Kanabui of the Kingdom of Itain, this is our cousin's shipyard. Take advantage of our spies to find opportunities to attack here and destroy our cousin's shipbuilding potential. Keep attacking these ports, and then find opportunities to take the card Destroy the place where Ledo Kingdom made weapons."

"This is the last place, let's have a decisive battle!" Dacius said, pointing to the circle of islands in Anaheim. After speaking, he raised his head and glanced at Malekith.

At this time, Malekith neither nodded nor denied, but looked at the place Daxus pointed to with his orange eyes burning hot.

"After preparing a large amount of materials for the long-term siege in Krakalund, we gathered our army and set off from Krakalund, crossing the Venom Forest, and besieging Anaheim." Dacius pointed his finger again He found an outlet to the underground sea, and continued, "A small number of black arks cooperated with the army to block Anaheim and destroy the navy there."

"If all the dragon ships of our cousin navy are dispatched, we will fight them in these islands! The black ark, the plunder ship, the hell dragon, and the cooperation of the army on the island. If the early stage goes well, they should not have any in this decisive battle. How many conventional ships have been used, and spies are using the discord between the Phoenix Court and the Inner and Outer Ring Kingdoms to force out their few remaining dragon ships! They should come over!"

"After coming here, these islands will become the key to our victory. As long as we make full use of the length and quantity of the black ark to block the dragon boats they are proud of between these islands, then these dragon boats will be the target. The dragon blade of the dragon boat won't work, our army units in the archipelago will paralyze their dragonships with reaper ballistas and large magical harvests! This creates opportunities to jump into their dragonships! If Aris Anar takes his shadow It would be even better for them to log in to harass our logistics supply line near Anaheim, which is our home field, and I can hunt more conveniently, so as to end this farce that has lasted for 5000 years. I still lack a hand The bow." Dacius looked up at Malekith and said with a smile, and at the same time took out a pipe from his arms and put it in his mouth.

Asur is considered a seafaring race, and their navy is powerful. Although the scale of the Drucci navy is also huge, it still cannot match the expertise of the Asur fleet.Every ship in the Asur fleet is an excellent example of elven craftsmanship, each crafted with care by Asur shipwrights who have studied their craft not in just a few decades, but in a few Century, a fool can become an outstanding, excellent, professional shipwright after so long, and the tool in their hands is their sharpest sword.The resulting ships were smooth, agile and fast, yet extremely durable and strong enough to withstand the most dire storms and the ravages of battle.

The Asur crew are as skilled and professional as the craftsmen who built them, and protected by the Lothern Triton, they are as good at fighting at sea as they are on land. These ships are organized into fleets all over the world, and will Asur's will spread from the shores of Ulthuan to distant Cathay.

What does Drucci have?Dacius, who runs the shipyard in his family, knows all too well that plunder ships are built by slaves with extremely fast iteration cycles. Isn't it nonsense to expect slaves to carry forward the craftsman spirit?What about being able to raise wages or improve treatment?A very small number of Azul shipwright slaves will not work as hard as they did in Ulthuan. As long as they have such a thing, they can do business. The performance of the marauder is so good, thanks to the good quality of the black pine wood in the Venom Forest. The most important thing is It was Drucci's ships that came by number.

As for the black ark?That thing doesn't need technology, just lay black marble on top, and then the sorceresses in the family will use magic to splice these marbles together to form the hull.Although the time is extremely slow, it can be sorted out anyway.As for the superstructure?It all depends on the mood of the sorceress, the requirements for buying a house and the change of time.

The sorceresses of the Tower of Destruction are comparable to the mages of the White Tower of Heth. This comparison means that the newly promoted mages of the White Tower of Heth will go to the fields to practice and show off, so the fields of Saffrey often have excellent harvests.And the low-level dark female sorceresses in the Tower of Destruction, who have experienced twelve cruel trials, are arranged to work in the shipyard as free labor for a period of time. They can not only practice magic, but also obtain an internship certificate. The family also benefits, which is the so-called win-win situation!
As for the Drucci sailors, let alone, the iteration cycle is also very fast. Drucci's purpose as a sailor is weird, those who escape military service, those who stay away from the paradise of Naggaroth, speculators, those who make a name for themselves, and those who want to make a fortune , Few people want to be a skilled sailor, but the technology is also in the past, at least he and his sailors left a deep impression on Daxus when Dastan Cold Eye commanded the raider.

Asur is known to make planks, dragon boats, and staffs out of star wood, the bane of all unclean things, and the resin that flows from the star wood glistens like gold, making the entire hull look like dragon scales.This kind of wood is abundant in the forest of Draco in Anhara. It is twice as thick and half as high as ordinary star wood. It is suitable for building dragon boat hulls, but the funny thing is that the star wood there was 5000 years ago. Burned by Drucci during the Great Schism.

So since then Azul has never been able to build a dragonship, and the loss of every dragonship is a tragedy, and when such a tragedy happens, the glory of the dragonship is sung in epic fashion.As such, these valuable dragonships are seen only in war, and not in peacetime or on less important missions.

There are three ways to solve the dragon boat. The first is the strange starwood in the forest that looks like dragon scales. The second is that there is a real dragon on the dragon boat. The third is the terrifying dragon blade, which is similar to the horn. s things.

The dragon blade is made of a fine gold and alloy material, heated by the breath of the dragon, carved and ground by the most powerful spell of a high-level mage, and is known as the most powerful substance in the entire world.Dragonblades are often inlaid with symbols of ancient times, and few can look directly at these magical symbols without going mad.

Both ends of the front end of the dragon boat (catamaran) are equipped with dragon blades, which allow the dragon boat to cut through the hulls of other ships like a blade cuts butter, and completely crush them.

(Don't ask how long the dragon boat is, how can it beat the black ark, because I don't know now.)
"No! My dear adjutant, this is just your wishful thinking. Our cowardly cousins ​​will never dispatch their few remaining dragon boats unless they have to!" Malekith said mockingly. Fingers rubbed together.

Before Dacius could light the tobacco in the pipe, Malekith had already ignited it with magic.

"Then if they choose to retain their naval strength, we will capture Anaheim, and then conduct a large-scale garrison there, strengthen the defense and expand the port at the same time, and make it an attack and supply base for attacking Ulthuan. Our navy goes there for maintenance, the most important thing is that it is convenient for our army to launch from Anaheim and Caron de Cal at the same time, and go hand in hand!" After Dacius breathed out the smoke, he drew two lines of attack on the map On the front line, the soldiers pointed directly at Ulthuan!

While Dacius' strategy established the winning rate for Drucci, he was also fighting for the interests of the Calamity of Hell family and Krakalund. If Drutch's army really divides into two groups, the commander of one route must be Malekith, the other way is Newkel, because the interests of the Hell's Calamity family are the same as Malekith's.

"What about Nagaris?" Malekith pointed to Tar Anlek on the map and asked.

"Are you always thinking about what your poor Alek is doing?" Of course, these words were only in Dacius's mind, and he didn't say them out.

"My lord, to tell you the truth, it's a rotten place right now. There's no need to put our energy into it. I really don't recommend landing on Tar Anlek in Nagareth like the previous expedition. Rebuild it as a base for hoarding supplies and departure, and then send the limited army of Drucci to the Griffin Gate, Phoenix Gate and Unicorn Gate, no matter what method we use to break through these fortresses and enter the Inner Ring Kingdom Our army will suffer heavy losses!"

"Aris Anar will definitely bring his shadow to harass our supply line in Nagarys, and if we enter Ulthuan in this way, it will virtually increase the authority of the Phoenix Court. When attacking these fortresses, gather the armies of the various kingdoms and organize a decisive battle. Looking back, our method of marching is undoubtedly an adventure. If there is a decisive battle... Maybe we will be defeated again Drive down to the sea! Even if it is victorious, there will be no troops marching into the inner ring." Dacius breathed out smoke while slowly organizing his words, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and he shook his head slightly at Malekith, his In his heart, he was really not optimistic about this traditional approach, because Malekith had failed several times in this approach.

Malekith was not angry because of Dacius' offense. He propped his iron hand on the table and quietly looked at Nagareth on the map, the place where he was born, his Hometown, his first memory is the blue sky over Nagareth.To this day, he still remembers the scene of his first horseback riding, the dragon flying in the sky, the clouds surrounding the mountains, and the green sea. He always remembers the quiet moments when he was with his father when he was a child.

The throne room fell silent instantly. Malekith looked at Nagaryus on the map and fell into memories, while Dacius was also puffing out smoke and looking at the map, wondering. He didn't think the fog in the outer ring of Ulthuan What effect will it have on Drucci's fleet, the fog may affect the direction of those Norscan Yankee pirates, but for Drutch's large-scale fleet, it is like going home, posing a word long at sea The snake array can touch it.

"Continue, my dear lieutenant." Malekith broke away from the memories, and he said affirmatively to Dacius.

"My lord, to put it bluntly, as long as we have control of the sea, Ulthuan is an island! As long as there is no navy and navigation trade, Ulthuan is an island!" Dacius said while pointing his finger on the map. Ulthuan circled.

Malekith didn't look at the map, he was watching Dacius quietly.

"We still use the idea of ​​​​peeling onions, cutting meat with blunt knives, and constantly removing silkworms and nibbles? Ulthuan, we make full use of our naval advantages to harass the ports and coastal villages of the Outer Ring Kingdom, and make our cowardly cousin exhausted. They can't take care of themselves, so they can only passively defend and wait for a slow death. During this period, we can use spies to create chaos in Ulthuan and provoke discord between the Outer Ring Kingdom and the Inner Ring Kingdom. To have their ships fly an identifying flag, and as long as they fly that identifying flag our navy will treat those ships as if they don't exist."

"As long as those greedy Emerald Sea families taste the sweetness, they will continue to do this. After their ships return to Lothern, we can let the spies expose this matter. The evidence is here to create the Inner and Outer Ring Kingdom. Political crisis. We can also use spies to spread a reputation in Ulthuan that is not good for the sea lord Aislin, and force his dragon boat to come out for a decisive battle." Malekith added that he, who is almost [-] years old, has seen too many people. Too many, he has seen countless heroes rise, countless heroes fall, countless countries have grown from nothing, turned from prosperity to decline, and died in the dust.

Dacius nodded. At this time, he didn't compliment, but was thinking about what Malekith said. He didn't think that the expressions of those people doing business had integrity. , the Inner Ring Kingdom is happy to do nautical trade, does this make sense?Is it in the river?He also didn't think that Aislin could bear it, staying in the port, or going around in circles with them in the vast sea, just how could Aislin's violent temper, the kind of temper that he knew he couldn't beat but rushed, be able to endure until then?It is certain that you will fight against the enemy directly.

"We created an illusion for our cousins, and by the time they realized it, it was too late. The noose tightened around their necks and they could only struggle to the death, unable to exert their strength. Passive." Dacius exhaled smoke and said darkly while looking at the map.

"Did you say these strategies that Newkel told you? No! Newkel doesn't have this kind of thinking and strategy. He is better at land strategy and tactics. I know my former adjutant too well. " Malekith looked at Dacius and asked, and then denied it himself.When he observed Dacius before, he just felt that Dacius was a bit like his former good friend and good adjutant Alain Drian, and the occasional commotion was a little bigger, even though Dacius showed some peculiar Talent and ability, he is also a little disapproving, he let Dacius stay by his side, just to accompany him to relieve boredom, play a role-playing game, and then look at the face of the disaster family of hell to give pointers, plating qualifications .

But Malekith seems to be a little shaken by things like fate now. The strategy that Dacius said is completely feasible. This kind of strategy will completely hold the initiative in his hands. Going on, he doesn't even need to march into Ulthuan, Ulthuan will fall into collapse and decline in the near future, and the fruits of victory are in his mouth too soon.
