Chapter 632: Long-term development plan for the East

Remember [New] in a second! The port of Zul'Aman is only a tentative name, and it is absolutely impossible for the high elves to continue to use the name given by the trolls.

This time he went to the port to clean up the discipline, and Kael'thas also gave Sharlayan a task.

Decide on a new name for the port early and don't let the locals get used to it.

Since the Red Dragon Knights were moved to Silvermoon City, Valeera sent many arcane puppets to the Zul'Aman ruins to completely demolish this ancient troll city.

The Amani clan was nominally destroyed, and all those who were still alive were thrown into the mines everywhere to do coolie work.

But Amani is only the most prominent suzerain clan of the forest trolls, and powerful forest troll clans such as Xiezhi and Deadwood are still alive and well.

The high elves and forest trolls have feuded chiefly with the Amani clan.

Now that Amani is gone, the anger of the high-level Quel'Thalas headed by Kael'thas against the forest trolls has subsided by 50%.

This is one of the reasons why Kael'thas is willing to make a deal with the moss troll.

Sharlayan dared not relax his vigilance against the other clans of forest trolls.

Mossy trolls are not very hostile to the high elves, mainly because they are closer to Lordaeron and have been oppressed by the Lordaeron kingdom all year round. Instead, they have no direct conflict of interest with the high elves.

Sharlayan had learned about the Xiezhi clan and the Deadwood clan from Danmaku.

The Witherwood clan mainly lived in the Arathi Highlands. Solas had been suppressing them to death during his reign. It was only after the idiot Garin killed his father that the Witherwood troll saw the hope of rising again.

As long as Danas can be brought back from Draenor, it will not be difficult to suppress the Witherbark troll again with the ability of this battlefield veteran.

What worried Sharlayan the most was the flourishing Xiezhi clan.

As early as the end of the Troll War, the influence of the Xiezhi clan that occupied the Hinterlands faintly surpassed that of the suzerain clan Amani.

The reason why there is no rebound is only because Amani still has a few loas in his hands as his trump card.

In terms of personnel combat effectiveness alone, the Xiezhi clan has undoubtedly surpassed Amani.

There is only one loa that the Xiezhi clan believes in, and it is the spider Loa Shadra whose body is located in the Zandalar Islands.

Compared with the relatively low-key Deadwood Clan, the Xiezhi Clan is extremely aggressive, and early showed its ambition to unify the forest troll clans.

What Sharlayan couldn't accept the most was that the Xiezhi clan still retained the backward habits of living sacrifices and cannibalism to this day.

Fortunately, the Vilebranch clan's way out of the mountain is firmly blocked by the Wildhammer dwarves' Eagle's Nest Mountain.

There are only two ways to leave the Hinterlands, one is to pass through the Eagle's Nest Mountain Gate and enter the Hillsbrad Hills.

The second is to bypass the Eagle's Nest Mountain, take the mountain road in Qiqi District, and go north into the Keer Dalong area managed by the Barov family.

No matter which way you go, you can clearly see the movement of the evil branch troll on the Eagle's Nest Mountain with a wide view, and give an early warning to the surrounding countries.

But this is a normal situation when the defenses on all sides are in place.

During the Second War of the Orcs, the main force of the alliance was hoarded on the Hillsbrad hills, and Lordaeron's rear defense was empty.

Orgrim's allied army of orcs and trolls went straight to Quel'Thalas from this mountain path, and once approached the city of Silvermoon, embarrassing the arrogant high elves.

The reason why Kael'thas vigorously develops the navy is probably because he wants to get back the debt from the evil branch troll.

The overland distance between the Hinterlands and Eversong Forest was too great for Quel'Thalas' army to obtain Terenas' permission to penetrate Lordaeron's territory.

Going to sea is different.

Downstream from the port of Zul'Aman (tentative name), bypassing the coastline of East Weald, you can reach the east coast of Hinterland directly.

Climbing up from the Wanghai Cliff by the sea, you can see Xin Saluo, the lair of the evil branch troll.

The Wildhammer dwarves hated the brutal Vilebranch trolls deeply. If they could persuade Eagle's Nest Mountain to send troops at the same time, Sharlayan didn't believe that the Vilebranch trolls would be able to find anything under the attack from both sides.

Of course, this is only a theoretical assumption.

The naval power of Quel'Thalas is still weak today, not enough to support today's long-distance cross-sea operations.

But there is always a dream, otherwise it is no different from salted fish.

Therefore, the construction of the port of Zul'Aman is of great importance, which is directly related to the future maritime strategy of Quel'Thalas.

If the sea route on the east coast can be opened, Quel'Thalas' fleet can bypass the land route and go directly to all lands including the Hinterlands, Arathi Highlands, Northeron, Badlands, Swamp of Sorrows and Blasted Lands. East Coast land.

If you go a little further, you can continue to go south to Stranglethorn Vale, which will greatly expand the scope and influence of Quel'Thalas.

In the entire east coast region, only Lordaeron's East Sea Fleet can be regarded as an opponent.

Unfortunately, not long ago, this East Sea Squadron pretended to be a privateer fleet and attacked the coast of Quel'Thalas. It was almost wiped out by the sudden emergence of the Red Dragon Knights, and there were only a few ships. The boat barely escaped.

Without a few years of self-cultivation, Lordaeron's East Sea Fleet would not be able to recover.

These few years are an excellent time for Quel'Thalas to race against time to develop its sea power.

As an important part of the navy's development plan, the port of Zul'Aman must not be missed. Even if it breaks with Lordaeron, it must ensure that the construction of this front-line port will not be disturbed by any factors.

When Sarlayan and the others rode Chocobos to pass the former site of Zul'Aman and came to the seashore where a large amount of building materials were piled up, there were still a small number of engineering arcane puppets working overtime.

The nearby high elf workers looked listless, and looked south of the sea from time to time, with a look of anxiety in their eyes.

The arrival of the special envoy headed by Sarlayan attracted the attention of many people. The manager of the port belatedly heard about it, and rushed out of his single-family hut with disheveled clothes. Run to Sharlayan.

"Suck~"

Sharlayan, who twitched his nose, smelled the powder on the construction manager's body, and he didn't need to think much about what this guy was doing at home during the day.

Sharlayan's face turned gloomy.

Considering the new population of Quel'Thalas, he has no objection to the high elves who have nothing to do to declare Nahan for a hundred days.

But the premise is to finish your own work first.

This manager obviously violated Sharlayan's philosophy, and he only cared about his own enjoyment without taking care of the port affairs.

"Snapped!"

Taking out the dragon leather whip (from Saberian) presented by Onyxia from the space package, Sarlayan lashed on the ground with an ugly expression.

The loud whip whip made the manager who had a smile on his face look frightened.

"Shenshen... Earl Deep Shadow, please listen to my sophistry... Ah bah, it's an explanation!"

Sharlayan whipped the opponent's neck mercilessly. The precisely controlled force did not break his neck, but just shattered the neckline of his clothes.

"Explain? How do you explain the 'strawberry mark' on your neck?"

"Is your work done? Is the woman in the house your wife!"

"Snapped!"

It was another whip, this time it was really hard, the dragon leather whip left a bright red mark on the manager's arm, it didn't break the skin and bleed, but it could make him feel unbearable pain.

"Oh! My lord! I plead guilty! Please spare me this time!"

With the low morale of the Zul'Aman port, it just needs a little exciting picture.

Sharlayan would not vent his anger on the wage earners who obeyed orders like other nobles. He would directly hold the port's top management accountable.

"The control is not strict! Crack!"

"You still have the nerve to ask me to forgive? Crack!"

"Hundred days to show off in front of the workers, right! Crack!"

The last whip was whipped on the opponent's back, and the manager, who could cry loudly before, was too painful to speak.

Sharlayan intentionally controlled the strength of his shots~lightnovelpub.net~ so as not to get blood dripping.

Seeing the miserable scene of the managers who used to be domineering and domineering over their heads, trembling in pain, the workers who were trying to catch fish were still terrified, and they all fell silent.

Sarlayan coiled up his dragon whip, and casually hit a more courageous male worker with a gloating expression on his face.

"You! Come out and answer, which family is this guy related to?"

The worker who was pointed trembled all over, and hurriedly lowered his head and replied to Salayan: "Yes... one of the stewards of the Drehart family."

"Drehart?"

Sarlayan turned to look at Lor'themar: "Contact Unicorn Town and ask Valeera to notify Lady Drehart, and come over tomorrow morning at the latest to give me a reasonable explanation, and we won't wait when it's too late."

Lor'themar's impression of Sharlayan was still a few years ago, and it was the first time he saw the iron-blooded side of Sharlayan.

"Sure enough, the status is different..."

Lor'themar calmed down and took the order: "Of order, Your Excellency the Earl."
