Chapter 237 The Arrival of the Elves

"Well, that's all we have."

Lothar clapped his hands and drew everyone's attention back: "I know it takes a long time for a country to change from peacetime to war situation. Thank you kings for your efforts and support. What we are thinking now is how to rely on these Troops, to win a series of beautiful victories. I don't ask for a decisive battle to destroy the entire tribe at once, but I hope to lead everyone to win all the time, from one victory to another."

All the kings and generals immediately applauded.

At this time, Duke suddenly smiled: "Dear Commander-in-Chief, it seems that this is not all the troops you have now."

"Who else?" Lothar was really stunned for a moment. The troops promised by the seven human kingdoms were all here except for those deployed on the coast of Beiliu. The dwarves are still too busy to take care of themselves, and it is impossible to have spare energy.

"Why did you forget about the high elves?" At this moment, Duke's face was radiant, and there was still a little excitement on his face. Anyone could see how much that joy was.

"High elves?"

"Impossible! Didn't they join the alliance?" The kings talked a lot.

"That bullshit congressman." Alterac King Aiden spat out his poisonous tongue without hesitation.

Antonidas seemed to remember something, and stroked his long white beard: "If someone else is the commander, it would be impossible. But the commander is you... Anduin Lothar. That's another time It's over. Have you forgotten? The high elves have signed an ancient covenant with us humans since the time of Emperor Thoradin."

"The ancient covenant..." Lothar muttered to himself, and he suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a thing. But there have been too many things recently, and the attitude of the high elves was so cold before, Lothar almost forgot about it.

The old and refined Antonidas stroked his white beard, looked at Duke who was a little restless, and smiled: "Hehe, I think it's better for the two commanders to greet them."

Antonidas was indeed steady. He knew that Darkan, a member of the Silvermoon Council, had angered most of the kings on the day of the alliance. Most of the kings would definitely not go for the sake of face.

And it definitely won't be the Sun King himself. Then it's completely justified not to greet them.

Only then did a sentry rush to the gate of the headquarters to report: "The elf is here."

"Oh, we already knew." Lothar said lightly.

"I knew earlier? We didn't receive the report from the patrol ship until the elf's ship was almost within five nautical miles..." The voice of the sentinel who obviously came from Kul Tiras was a bit bitter.

Lothar didn't blame the poor sentinel: "It's okay, there are Naga and murlocs under the deputy commander's command who are patrolling the waters off Nanhai Town."

When the sentry heard this, he withdrew in relief.

Lothar looked around: "Okay, Your Majesties, Your Excellencies, after all, the arrival of the elves represents the attitude of a powerful country on the mainland. If you are willing, follow me to meet the envoy of the Sun King Anasterian. The rest of your Majesties, You can rest here for a while."

After a little thought, it was finally Ryan, Daelin, and Antonidas who followed Lothar, Duke, and Turalyon to the pier.

Although Daelin was not too self-effacing, he was very concerned about how many ships the elves could bring to his admiral, commander of the sea fleet.

Ryan simply wants to see the alliance become stronger. Antonidas, on the other hand, no one knew what he was thinking.

At this moment, more than 20 fast boats with typical high elf characteristics are flying across the sea like arrows.

"Hahaha! I can't wait to see how those humans are in a hurry. Just now I let my men completely avoid the patrols of their ships and come in through the gaps in the patrol net. Anyway, they have such a good view in broad daylight, so they will never mistake them. The ship that captured our high elves was an orc wreck?"

A calm voice interrupted the first: "Sorry, humans spotted us 10 nautical miles ago."

"How is it possible?!" The owner of the first voice exclaimed.

"Intuition tells me that's the case. Although I haven't found a human scout ship, I just feel the gaze of the gaze, and there are more than one. There can be no mistake."

Walking out of the headquarters and coming to the top of the mountain near the sea, people turned their attention to the Elf Clipper sailing towards the port in the distance.

Compared with the tall human hulls, the elves' clippers are flatter. The slender, streamlined hull is made of hard starwood found only in the woodlands of Quel'Thalas. Not only is it stiff, it's also lighter than most boat logs.

The hull is not only engraved with a large number of exquisite patterns mainly composed of arcs, but there are also dozens of magic-enchanted blade-throwing carts mounted on the edge of the hull. The huge triangular throwing blade composed of three sharp cones is not inferior to ordinary human cannons in terms of range.

The prows are all typical hippogryph pecks. In the state of full speed forward, this kind of prow, which looks like decoration, can also play the role of ramming, allowing the Elf Clipper to cut butter like a sharp blade. Open the hulls of warships of medium size or below and crush them completely.

"The destroyers of the elves," said naval expert Daelin Proudmoore softly, "are faster and lighter than our Kul Tiran scout ships—they carry fewer weapons, but they also give them It's pretty fast. It's a good, no, excellent addition to our fleet."

After finishing speaking, the alliance admiral frowned: "But this is too little, right? I only saw 8 light fast ships and 16 ultra-light scout ships. This is just the configuration of two combat teams .”

"Perhaps there are more beyond the horizon?" Turalyon said reassuringly from the other side of Lothar.

"No!" Admiral Dai Lin shook his head very positively: "This is not their habit, if there is no accident, this is all they have."

There was indescribable disappointment in Dai Lin's tone. Perhaps it was Duke's generosity that made him have more expectations, but the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment. Especially after having to divide his troops to garrison in the waters off the coast of Beiliu, Dai Lin had an unusual desire for the number of warships.

He knew very well that it was impossible for the fleet to protect the coastline of the entire northern continent well with this fleet.

"The 24 ships also represent an increase in the combat power of our fleet by 24 ships." Duke comforted Admiral Dai Lin: "As you said just now, this is at least an excellent supplement to our fleet. "
