Azeroth Shadow of the Moon

Although Makeley in front of Andrea still maintains a paralyzed expression, Andrea, who has been with him for hundreds of years, can see the hidden worry in his eyes.

"Yes, just half a month ago."

McKay reported in a flat tone, "Multiple ports along the western coast of Kalimdor were attacked at the same time, and the trade fleets traveling between Feralas and Ashenvale were also greatly affected."

Andrea frowned tightly, "Why at this time? Has our navy provoked Naga recently?"

"No, the navy has been familiarizing themselves with the operation of new warships and shipboard mortars near Yugetsu Harbor for the past six months."

The warships in Moon Night Town have undergone many upgrades, and now the three-masted Galen sailing ship that has just left the factory has been magically modified.

Different from the original Galen sailing ship, the main structure of the battleship in Moonlight Town, including the keel, is made of steel.

Although the strength of the steel itself is still lacking without a blast furnace, it can basically reach the strength expected by Andrea after being enchanted by the arcanists.

The total length of the galleon is over 60 meters, and the displacement of the modified galleon far exceeds that of the original galleon, reaching about 3,000 tons.

The battleship version of the Galen ship has two rows of 20 gun ports on each side. The shipboard weapons are 120mm mortars that were conceived by Andrea and "restored" by craftsmen.

Mortars are relatively easier to build than other naval guns, and this curved gun is also very simple to operate. It is the most suitable practice for the Moon Night Town Navy who is new to artillery.

Choosing a mortar is also a helpless move to a certain extent.

All the guns that Andrea originally envisioned were characterized by rifling. After years of verification, it was found that it was difficult to achieve mass production.

The manual drawing of rifling is very time-consuming. It is not difficult to produce a customized version individually, but it is more difficult to deploy a large number of troops by hand. The night elves do not have the modern industrial foundation of the earth.

Fortunately, what the night elves lack most is time, and the production is not enough, so time will come together.

After discussing with the weapon craftsmen, Andrea decided to ensure the rifling of the musket first, and temporarily use mortars without rifling and easy operation for the shipboard guns.

The range of the 120mm curved-fire mortar is about 8-10 kilometers, which is completely sufficient for the Navy of Moonlight Town today.

The magically modified Galen sailboat with a total length of more than 60 meters is already considered a medium-sized ship, and it is quite deterrent when sailing at sea.

Andrea didn't expect that Naga would dare to launch an attack on Moon Night Town, which has a powerful navy.

"How are the losses in the ports along the coast? Has the navy set off yet?"

Markle replied indifferently, "Thanks to the scouts on the lighthouse discovering in advance, the loss in the port is not heavy. The navy cleared the Naga near Feather Moon Port, and went south to clean up the coastline three days ago."

"However, this group of Naga is very cunning. They will actively hide in the sea to avoid the sailing route of the naval warship, wait for the warship to leave, and then drill out from the sea surface to continue attacking."

After Makelay's explanation, Andrea roughly understood the current battle situation.

Naga's full-scale attack on the west coast sounds scary, but thanks to the naval fleet patrolling the coast in rotation, Naga dare not attack against artillery fire head-on, that is just a simple act of death.

After Markley left, Andrea rested her chin on her hand and fell into deep thought.

"The problem lies in Naga's intentions. Except for going ashore at a fixed time every spring, they have never launched an attack of this scale before."

"Hey~"

Xalatas' strange laughter came, ""Sartre just lost the battle, and the Naga started to make trouble again. You don't think it's just a coincidence, do you? "

Andrea's face changed, "You mean, this is N'Zoth's conspiracy?"

"Eight or nine is not far from ten."

Xalatas explained leisurely, "Although the Satyr named Saraen hides very deeply, I can vaguely feel the breath of the void from him."

"This group of bereaved dogs seems to have found a new owner after the Burning Legion left. If I'm not mistaken, it should be N'Zoth."

'I see. '

Combined with some information from later generations, Andrea's mind suddenly opened.

Savis, who has died several times, is called a house slave with three surnames, precisely because he has followed three masters in total.

The first is Azshara, the second is Sargeras, and the second... is N'Zoth.

In the War of the Ancients, Xavius ​​was planted into a tree by Malfurion, and his body died completely, but his soul survived tenaciously, and he was favored by N'Zoth in despair.

Now the Emerald Dream has not been invaded by the Old Gods because of Saronite Maniac and World Tree, and it is unknown where Xavius' soul is.

But after being reminded by Xalatas, Andrea had a rough guess about the rebellion of Sartre and Naga this time.

These two forces that jumped out to make trouble after the Burning Legion was repulsed, their masters are the same - N'Zoth, the Demon with Thousand Beards.

After Y'Shaarj was crushed by Aman'Thul, among the three surviving ancient gods, the most powerful one was sealed in the furnace of will, that is, the thousand-throated demon Yogg-Saron in Ulduar.

But the most capable of the three ancient gods is N'Zoth, who is the weakest. From this aspect, it can be seen that his cunning and scrutiny ability can be explained.

Regardless of the future, the first target of N'Zoth's attack before the War of the Ancients was Neltharion, the guardian of the earth.

The betrayal of the Black Dragon King caused serious damage to the guardian dragon army. They played a very shameful record in the Battle of the Ancients, forcing the Azeroth coalition forces to take the risk of harming the roots of Azeroth and detonate the Well of Eternity to exile demon.

"So, N'Zoth provoked his subordinates to attack the night elves one after another. What is his purpose?"

"huh~"

Xalatas sneered, "The Satyr Rebellion can still be said to be aimed at the entire night elf family, but the Naga's attack, the target they want to test is obviously only Moon Night Town, which has established its influence by the sea, or...as the leader of the power You, Andrea Moonshadow."

Andrea narrowed his eyes slightly, "It seems that my performance in recent years has attracted En'Zoth's attention..."

"Xalatas, based on your knowledge of the ancient gods, how large a Naga army will N'Zoth send this time?"

Xalatas said with some disdain, "That guy's strength is much weaker than Yogg-Saron's. He is very cautious in doing things, and he can even be said to be timid."

"As long as you pull out the new naval battleship that has not yet been put into use for a walk, I guarantee that the coward will withdraw his claws immediately."

The Moonlight Town naval warships sailing at sea today are transitional versions between Kirk ships and Galen sailboats, using silly, black and thick smoothbore guns.

Andrea pondered for a moment, then called out to Leticia outside the office.

When Leticia came in, her mouth was still stuffed with the shredded green pepper pork that Andrea's personal chef had just fried for him... This girl still likes to steal food as always.

"Ni Jiao Wo (you call me)?"

The corners of Andrea's brows twitched, barely suppressing the urge to give this damn girl a socialist beating.

"Help me call Captain Hankison. Raising troops will last a thousand days. It's time to let the new warships go out and try their quality."
