Chapter 581: Enemy in the royal family of Lordaeron
In this era, Azeroth's artillery technology is still at a relatively early stage, and the ammunition used is still cast iron solid bullets.
When fighting at sea, solid shells can pose a greater threat to wooden hulls.
But when the artillery is aimed at the vast land to attack, apart from the impact caused by the shell hitting the target, the artillery attack of this era does not have the explosive effect mentioned by the barrage netizens.
Returning to Quel'Thalas this time, Sarlayan intends to calm down, organize the existing technology tree of Quel'Thalas, and promote technological upgrades according to the guidance and suggestions provided by the barrage.
The improvement of guns and artillery is one of them.
The existing solid shells have limited lethality to cluster units. Sarlayan plans to improve the ammunition so that it can exert the explosion and fragmentation effects mentioned by the barrage.
When Sharlayan went to Ironforge, he specifically analyzed the existing mainstream gunpowder.
According to the barrage, Azeroth is still using black powder, and its technological level is relatively backward.
Sharlayan considered improving gunpowder, but the barrage objected to this.
The mainstream weapons of Quel'Thalas are not muskets and cannons. Rashfully improving gunpowder may make wedding dresses for others, which cannot effectively widen the technological gap between Quel'Thalas and other countries.
What is the characteristic technology of Quel'Thalas that is difficult to be copied by other countries?
The answer is magical technology, and arcane puppets that act autonomously are one of the representative products.
The improvement of gun bullets and shells does not necessarily rely on the upgrade of gunpowder, and can be replaced by the magic technology that the high elves are best at.
The basic principle of gunpowder guns and cannons is to use the driving force generated by the explosion of gunpowder to shoot bullets (cannonballs).
Can using special arcane technology replace the role of gunpowder?
After the actual test of Sharlayan, the answer is yes.
But the road has to be walked step by step, and the meal has to be eaten bite by bite.
After returning to Quel'Thalas, Sharlayan did not intend to immediately put weapons reform on the agenda.
With the existing low-efficiency bureaucratic system of Quel'Thalas, it can be stuck for a long time just in the discussion stage.
Therefore, Sarlayan's first choice was to reform the original official system, clarify the affairs that each position needs to be responsible for, and avoid duplication of duties leading to multi-department disputes, which wastes this precious time for peaceful development for no reason.
Under the concerted efforts of members such as Kael'thas and Solanlian, the reform of the official system has achieved initial results.
However, at this moment, Terenas suddenly attacked.
Due to the infiltration of the Burning Legion into Lordaeron, the strongest kingdom of mankind, the turmoil in Stratholme has a certain inevitability.
But Sharlayan really didn't expect that Terenas would take advantage of the problem and send a privateer fleet with an official background to harass the coastline of Quel'Thalas.
Of course, no matter what the final outcome of this privateer fleet is, Lordaeron will definitely not admit that this is their official army.
According to the barrage, this attack has never happened in the original history, and it should be related to the many changes Sarlayan has made to history.
After coming to Sunsail Port to join the three of Stellagosa, Sharlayan asked Onyxia some related questions.
"Um…"
Princess Black Dragon rubbed her clean chin thoughtfully, pondered for a while before replying in an uncertain tone.
"Your guess is not impossible, but is the majestic royal family of Lordaeron really so easily infiltrated by the Dread Demon King?"
That's right, Sharlayan boldly guessed that there was a dreadlord lurking among the advisors beside Terenas.
It was they who fueled the flames behind the scenes, which made Terenas' dislike of Quel'Thalas deepen day by day, and finally made this desperate decision.
The Dreadlord's camouflage and latent ability is indeed very strong, but logically speaking, the royal family of Lordaeron, which governs the country with holy light, is unlikely to be touched by demons with fel power.
"No, it's actually possible."
Stellagosa frowned and raised a possibility: "Before Archbishop Alonsus Faol passed away, Terenas had never done such extreme things."
The expressions of Onyxia and Sharlayan changed at the same time.
Onyxia: "You mean, the Dreadlord took the opportunity to infiltrate the court after the death of the archbishop?"
In the history of the Church of the Holy Light, the name Alonsus Faol will undoubtedly be remembered.
The brand-new and powerful profession of the paladin came into being because of Archbishop Faol.
In just a few years, paladins have become mainstream military officers in the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and they have a decent status even in high society.
Archbishop Faol is dying, and died last winter in the Holy Light Cathedral in Lordaeron King City.
Among the several personal disciples of Archbishop Fao, Benedictus left the Kingdom of Stormwind. The five first-generation paladins, including Uther, had their own responsibilities, but none of them inherited his mantle.
With the death of Archbishop Faol, the power of priests in the Diocese of Lordaeron will inevitably be affected.
As Benedictus gradually emerged in the Kingdom of Stormwind, the center of the Church of the Holy Light will inevitably gradually move south.
However, this is destined to be a long process. At least in the last few years, Archbishop Faol's peripheral vision will still radiate the entire Kingdom of Lordaeron.
However, in a place that ordinary people can't see, the impact of Archbishop Fao's death has begun to appear.
Due to the distance and the lack of information, Sharlayan and Onyxia had no way of knowing what happened to the royal family of Lordaeron.
According to logical speculation, Stellagosa's hypothesis does have a high possibility.
Sharlayan smacked his lips a little irritably: "Tsk~ those big bats that penetrate all holes."
After thinking for a moment, Onyxia said, "No matter what happens in the royal city of Lordaeron, as outsiders, we have no way to intervene."
"If Terenas is really confused by the wind in the ear of the Dreadlord, he may do even more outrageous things later."
"This is obviously not a good thing for Quel'Thalas, which is adjacent to Lordaeron."
The Dreadlord...or the Burning Legion's purpose is clear.
Disturb the peaceful situation within Azeroth, induce wars among various countries, and use civil wars to weaken the strength of Azeroth's defenders, paving the way for the next invasion of the Burning Legion.
The dreadlord would certainly like to see a conflict between Quel'Thalas and Lordaeron.
In order to prevent the situation from developing to that point, the dreadlord lurking in the upper echelons of Lordaeron must first be caught, so that Terenas will find his way back.
"That's easy to say."
Sharlayan spread his hands with a wry smile: "What should we do? We have no friendship with the royal family of Lordaeron."
"In fact, there are, but I don't know whether the other party will follow our warning."
Sharlayan's expression changed slightly: "You mean...Prince Arthas?"
Onyxia nodded: "The affairs of Kul Tiras are busy now~www.readwn.com~ Daelin, who has a lot of things to do every day, can't stay in Dalaran all the time."
"I boldly guess that Terenas will not easily let Arthas give up his pursuit of Jaina, and he will continue to travel frequently between Dalaran and Lordaeron."
"Perhaps, we can establish a connection with Alsace through this line, reminding him that there are unstable factors in the royal family."
"Um…"
Sharlayan frowned and considered for a while: "It is theoretically possible, but the details still need to be polished... Oni, this task is temporarily entrusted to you."
"Okay, I will continue to improve in the future, but let's solve the problem in front of me first."
The flying speed of the Red Dragon Knights is very fast, but it takes an hour to traverse most of the Eversong Forest.
The offshore fleet at Sunsail Port needs to delay the Lordaeron privateer fleet's attempt to continue going south within an hour, which is obviously unrealistic.
The tonnage gap between the ships of the two sides was too large. Not to mention an hour, several galleys were destroyed and sunk by artillery in just ten minutes.
"It is inevitable for the privateer fleet to land at Sunsail Port."
Sharlayan watched the battle on the distant sea worriedly: "We must stop their landing forces in the port area, and we cannot let these 'pirates' wreak havoc on Sunsail Port, or even go further inland."
Onyxia shrugged her shoulders noncommittally: "What to do, you can just give the order, grasping the general situation of the battlefield is not my strong point."
Stellagosa also nodded firmly to show her support, and even Tinagosa blatantly expressed her willingness to help.
"Suck ~ call ~"
Sharlayan took a deep breath to suppress the anxiety in his heart.
"Let us also join the battle, and assist Quel'Thalas' offshore fleet to delay time as much as possible."
