After being warmly sent off by Baroness Rivendell and his wife, Sharlayan and the others hurriedly left Stratholme.

In an emergency, Stellagosa directly opened the portal to Silvermoon City.

After walking out of the Tower of Sunfury, Sharlayan strode towards Kael'thas' office with a gloomy expression.

Valeera and Sharlayan split up and went to the Backlight Blade headquarters to inform Villes.

Stellagosa teleported to Sunsail Port together with Onyxia and Tinagosa, and in the name of Salayan as the royal planner, informed the offshore fleet of Sunsail Port to prepare for maritime defense.

Since Quel'Thalas has always maintained a good cooperative relationship with Kul Tiras, there is no large sailing ship with huge consumables, only an offshore fleet dedicated to defense.

Due to the serious conflict between his own interests and Terenas' decision-making, Baron Rivendell took the risk to tell Sharlayan the news that the "pirates" were about to attack.

He didn't want Quel'Thalas to cut ties with Stratholme because of this.

Under the reminder of the barrage, Sarlayan has already guessed.

Most of these pirates are disguised by Lordaeron's official fleet. In the different world where the barrage is located, this kind of behavior is called legal privateing.

Of course, the so-called legality here refers to the legality of the country that issued the order, and it is impossible for the country that was attacked to recognize the legality of this private plundering.

Lordaeron's comprehensive national strength ranks first among the seven human nations, and it has no shortcomings in all aspects.

The size and sophistication of their naval fleet is not comparable to that of Kul Tiras, but it is not comparable to that of Quel'Thalas's hip-sized offshore fleet.

Unfortunately, Kul Tiras is currently busy with the naval battle with Zandalar, and temporarily cannot spare troops to help the high elves.

Once the offshore fleet of Yangfan Port is defeated, the privateer fleet will probably land at the port and continue to wreak havoc.

Sunsail Port is a prosperous trading port in Quel'Thalas. It is located at the northernmost tip of the Eastern Continent. Few pirates would dare to risk offending Kul Tiras and Quel'Thalas to plunder here.

Even the occasional outlaws who appeared could not break through the defenses of the offshore fleet in a short period of time.

Just wait for reinforcements from the Kul Tiras patrol fleet and it will be game over.

The purpose of Lordaeron's privateers is unknown, maybe they want to disguise themselves as Kul Tiran pirates and destroy the friendly relationship between Quel'Thalas and Kul Tiras.

From the perspective of Sarlayan, this approach is very low-key, and it does not conform to the demeanor of Terenas who has always advertised as the number one country in mankind.

"what?!"

Kael'thas, who was still discussing the follow-up development of the reform of the official system with Solanlian, immediately jumped up from the sofa after learning that Salayan urgently asked for an interview.

"Pirates from Lordaeron? Will attack Sunsail Harbor?"

Kael'thas' face was full of surprise, and after hearing Sharlayan's analysis, his face gradually became gloomy.

"Terenas would use such a despicable method of provocation... Is this really an order from Terenas himself?"

Sharlayan shook his head: "I'm not sure, but at least I can be sure that the order came from the Royal City of Lordaeron."

"Their plan has reached a certain stage, and we must come up with countermeasures as soon as possible."

Kael'thas subconsciously walked back and forth twice in the audience hall with his hands behind his back.

"With Quel'Thalas' poor sea combat power, it will definitely not be able to stop Lordaeron's privateer fleet."

"Solanlian, can I ask Kul Tiras for help?"

Solanlian nodded slightly: "Yes, but it may not be possible to get a response from them."

"The main fleet of Kul Tiras is still competing with the Zandalar Gold Fleet for control of the sea. Even King Daelin hurried back from Dalaran to Boralus to preside over the overall situation. I'm afraid there will be no battleships to support him. us."

"Tsk!"

Kael'thas tapped his forehead irritably: "Terenas must have seen this opportunity before he dared to take the risk. If it wasn't for Baron Rivendell's reminder, we who don't know anything would really want to eat it." A big loss."

Kael'thas pondered for a moment: "Don't worry about Terenas' motives and weird brain circuits, first pass the information to Boralus, at least let Daelin know about it."

"Salayan, take my token and go to Yangfan Port to notify the Offshore Fleet to leave the port for patrol, and report as soon as you find the enemy. By the way, help me go to the parliament and call Li Reisa."

…

In naval battles, Quel'Thalas is definitely no match.

Things have come to this point, Kael'thas can only find ways to minimize losses.

Under the premise that the naval battle must be defeated, Sharlayan began to think about how to give the enemy a head-on blow when they landed.

Lord Rivendell made no mention of any big names in the privateer fleet.

According to the barrage speculation, this fleet is probably drawn from East Tirisfal nearby, and it is likely to be inextricably related to the Knights of the Silver Hand.

Sharlayan bet his hopes of victory on a land battle.

Sharlayan plans to use the only remaining high-mobility force in Quel'Thalas to replay the scenes of Drake Proudmoore's crimes for the privateer fleet of Lordaeron, and weaken their combat capabilities at sea as much as possible. .

After receiving the latest news, all members of Backlight Blade took action, and Valeera was assigned by Sharlayan to the Red Dragon Knight camp in the south of Eversong Forest to inform them to dispatch.

Sarlayan teleported to Qingfeng Village first, and ordered Qingfeng Village to enter the second battle readiness state as the royal envoy.

The high elves who were still in a state of intoxication were sent out of Qingfeng Village forcibly. This place will be used as a frontline base to reinforce Yangfan Port, and the logistics materials will be transported to Qingfeng Village for unified distribution.

At the same time, the Yangfan Port Authority has been reminded by Stella Gosa, and immediately entered the first level of combat readiness.

The staff of the Port Authority are evacuating the ships parked inside and outside the pier and notifying the residents of Yangfan Port to take refuge in the basement.

A fleet flying the pirate skull flag is sailing at full speed in the far seas off the east coast of Quel'Thalas.

The lighthouse observers on Quel'Danas Island were the first to see the unknown fleet preparing to circle the island, and they rang the island's warning bell.

"Clang~clang~clang~"

The basic bells echoed in the Isle of Quel'Danas, and Thalorian Dawnseeker, who was still sitting in the Sunwell, frowned and looked towards the sea.

"3 capital ships, 8 frigates, and 2 supply ships, can pirates make up such a large and comprehensive fleet?"

After bypassing the Isle of Quel'Danas, the privateer finally stopped hiding and officially sailed into the offshore waters.

After passing Sun Chaser Island on the side of the island, the fleet continued to head south, heading straight for Yangfan Port, which was ready for battle.

Seeing from afar the situation in Sunsail Port that was facing a formidable enemy, Captain Barry Weiss and Alfred Abedis of the Silver Hand breathed a sigh of relief.

"The civilians have gone into hiding. At least this battle will not involve innocent people. It is somewhat of a consolation."

Abidis smiled wryly and shook his head: "Our actions have no justice at all, what is the use of this comfort?"

"It's hard to disobey the military order, so we can only bite the bullet."

Seeing that Quel'Thalas' offshore high-speed fleet was in formation, Weswin patted his cheeks to force himself to concentrate.

"Take the T-head position! The artillery is ready, be careful not to be stuck by those little things!"

"Yes!"

The offshore fleet of the high elves are all small and medium-sized galleys, without any artillery installed on board, they are the type of ships that kill the enemy in side-to-side battles.

High elves are rich in long-distance professions such as mages and rangers, and the crew configuration of offshore fleets also follows this rule.

Before connecting with the enemy ship, the powerful long-range firepower will wash the deck first, suppressing the opponent to the point of standing up~lightnovelpub.net~ Unfortunately, what they are facing today is the long-range battleship artillery, and there is Many frigates with rough skin and resistance to beating are in the front.

It is difficult for the ships of the offshore fleet to break through the defense of the frigate group, so they can only target these smaller sailing ships first, and they are inseparable at sea.

On the way to Sunsail Harbor in the form of a sharp-tailed swift, Sharlayan heard the roar of artillery at sea.

Looking at the fierce battle going on at sea from a distance, Sharlayan could only pray silently in his heart.

"Hold on, brothers in the Offshore Fleet, reinforcements are on the way."

"As long as we survive this wave of offensive, it's our turn to give the people of Lordaeron a wave of classic reappearance."
