598, Gilneth's positioning, new allies
Regarding the choice between the Blood Elves and the Night Elves, Du Teng had indeed made a decision.
It's just that this decision can't be said yet, not because the timing is inappropriate, but because it's ...... It's a drinking party now, and there are other activities after the drinking party, so what is it like to say that these serious things are going on?
So he only revealed a little bit of his tone and didn't say it completely, but Sylvanas seemed to understand what he meant, and raised his glass with a smile.
The two touched lightly, and after raising their heads to drink the wine, they turned and returned to the hall.
The atmosphere in the hall will be very good, although it is not completely certain whether the double anti-reverse will really become allies, but now, since the decision to completely separate has not been made, then everyone is still an ally.
Since they are allies, they can naturally drink happily.
The maid served the plates and plates, and the barrels of wine were held, and soon, the participants drank crookedly.
Du Teng also drank a lot of wine, but he was very special, and if he wanted to, he would not faint no matter how much he drank. Sylvanas didn't drink too much, and as the leader of the team, she certainly had to be sober to some extent.
Those who were drunk were quickly sent back to their rooms, and someone served them to sleep peacefully.
Duten led Sylvanas to his palace, and in the drawing-room, he took out another bottle of wine from the wine cabinet, and then held two wine glasses, one to Sylvanas and the other in his hand.
After letting all the guards and maids retreat, Duten sat down opposite Sylvanas.
"Alright, now let's talk about what your final decision is."
Sylvanas said as she cocked her legs and held her glass.
Du Teng did not rush to answer, but cast his eyes on the other party's long legs.
I want to say here that Sylvanas's figure is really quite good. Not to mention the convex and backward curls, he is tall, especially a pair of long legs, round and slender, wearing tight leather armor, showing the curve of that pair of beautiful legs.
Seeing Du Teng's gaze, Sylvanas did not have any shyness emotion, but deliberately cocked his legs, taking the initiative to show the curves of his beautiful legs.
"Actually, the idea ...... It's been there for a long time, but I haven't been able to pay attention to it before, because my plan is likely to cause the alliance to go downhill from now on. But now that I think about it, there's nothing wrong with it. ”
Duten got up and sat down next to Sylvanas, his left hand lightly resting on the other's lap.
"Oh? I'd like to hear what your plans are. ”
"My plan ......" Duten smiled, took a sip of wine, then leaned over and put his mouth to Sylvanas' ear, "My plan, this is ......"
As he spoke, he gently pressed forward, and Sylvanas looked at him with a smile, and instead of stopping him, he lay down.
This night, the two of them had no sleep.
Early the next morning, when Du Teng woke up, the people around him were no longer there. He stretched out his hand and fished out the air, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance of the other party's body in the air.
Recalling the beauty of last night, Du Teng put his hands under his head, and was about to continue lying down for a while, when Yu Guang suddenly noticed that there seemed to be someone next to him. He turned his head to look, only to see Sylvanas standing in front of the window, looking out at the scenery.
There is not a single strand on her body, her graceful figure, and her white jade-like skin are exposed to the air like this.
Du Teng thought about it, jumped off the bed, also naked, walked behind Sylvanas, gently stretched out his hand, and hugged the other party in his arms.
"What are you thinking?"
As he asked, he gently sniffed the scent in the other's hair.
"I'm thinking about your plans...... If you do, Stormwind won't let you go. ”
Sylvanas took Duten's big hand, turned his head sideways, and said with a smile.
Although she said that she was worried, she did not have any worried look on her face, which showed that she had a kind of confidence in Du Teng.
"Stormwind? Heh......" Du Teng shook his head, "I won't trouble them, they will burn high incense." Don't worry, Stormwind can't do anything about me, you've seen Stormwind's fleet too, it's very ordinary, I'm not afraid of anyone on the land station, and if it's a naval battle, Kurtilas won't bet casually. And let's be honest, Stormwind's worst enemy is the Horde. When the orcs invaded, they were the ones who fought the fiercest battles with the orcs, and they wouldn't let go of their tribe to attack me, and even if they did, I wouldn't be afraid of them. ”
"Really? Actually, I really don't understand, where is your confidence, Silvermoon City? Or Eagle's Nest Mountain? You should understand that Stormwind is already very strong with the help of Ironforge and Nomorigan. In the past, you were able to become the leader because your reputation surpassed Varian's, and everyone was more convinced of you, but now, if you really do what you planned, Varian will definitely become the new leader of the Alliance, and then your life will not be easy. ”
Sylvanas said softly.
"Well, I understand, but don't worry, I have a plan, and I'll be able to find new allies...... What are you doing now, we should do something meaningful on such a beautiful morning. ”
Du Teng said, his left hand floating, and his right hand descending.
"Hmm...... What makes sense......"
Sylvanas' eyes were silky.
"Of course, there is a man-making movement."
Duten laughed, picked Sylvanas up by the waist, threw him on the bed, and then pounced on him.
……
There are two reasons why Du Teng chose the Blood Elves over the Night Elves.
First, as I said before, the blood elves are too close to him, although it is impossible for the blood elves to destroy the newborn Gilneth, but in the same way, it is impossible for Gilneth to destroy the other party, if the two sides really break up, Gilneth is equivalent to creating a big enemy for himself in the north, which he cannot tolerate.
The second is that he doesn't think much of the Night Elves, or rather, he doesn't like the duo of Malfurion and Tyrande.
Maybe it was affected by the memories of later generations, he knew that Illidan was a tragic hero, so although Illidan didn't have any interaction with him, he still felt that Illidan was a good person, and in order to save the world, he was willing to be misunderstood by countless people. And what about Malfurion and Tyrande? Misunderstanding Illidan aside, these two people are really not a good thing.
As an older brother, Malfurion never really knew Illidan, and saw his brother entirely on his own volition. It is true that Illidan did sacrifice the magic power that forcibly devoured many of his companions back then, but his goal was to defeat the demons. If you don't, the Black Duck Fortress will fall, and the Dream Woodland will be in jeopardy.
But Malfurion didn't care so much, he completely ignored Illidan's merits, and took care of himself, and personally listed the other party as a wanted target. There is no so-called brotherly affection at all, and Malfurion's behavior is completely unqualified to be an older brother.
As for Tyrande, it's even funnier, why did she choose Malfurion over Illidan?
To put it bluntly, she is a green tea obsessed with power, you must know that the Druidism is the largest faction in the Night Elf realm, and Tyrande, as a priestess, does have room to continue to rise, but it is not easy to rise, so she needs help.
The reason why she chose Malfurion was to borrow Malfurion's help to make herself the ruler of the Night Elves. The priestess and druids almost dominate the mainstream of the Night Elf society, and with the support of both sides, Tyrande can firmly occupy the position of the leader of the Night Elves.
These two people, one is stubborn and the other is scheming, to be honest, it doesn't matter what kind of contribution they will make to Azeroth in the future, Duten still doesn't look down on them. If he had to choose, he would rather choose a blood elf with relatively weak strength.
And the strength of the blood elves is not necessarily weak, after all, this country is a country where all the people are mages, even warriors and archers can use simple magic, individual combat power is stronger, group combat power is stronger, and the mage legion of civilization Azeroth is not a casual joke.
Even the magical nation of Dalaran will be overshadowed when facing the Blood Elves and Quel'Salas in terms of magical strength and magical heritage.
So if he can get the blood elves to join, there is nothing undesirable in giving up the night elves, but if he chooses to give up the night elves now, then the Storm Kingdom, as well as the copperbearded dwarves and gnomes of the Iron Forge Castle, will definitely raise objections, and it is foreseeable that the final result, Gilneth is very likely to be rejected by the other members of the alliance.
So the question he is thinking about now is, whether to break away from the alliance!
If he chooses to break away from the Alliance, the new Horde will be made up of Orcs, Minotaurs, Trolls, and Boar Men, and the Alliance will become a combination of Stormwind, Ironforge, and Night Elves. Finally, there is the combination of Gilneth and Quel'Salas, in terms of strength, they will instantly fall to the very end of the several major factions in the world of Azeroth, and become the weakest force on the road.
How to Replenish the Missing Strength...... Du Teng thought about it for a long time, but fortunately, he knew the plot well, so he already had the answer in his heart.
Half a month later, a sea ship with an obvious Night Elf style docked, but unfortunately, the soldiers on the port of Gilneth did not allow the elves on board to go ashore. Mavi, who had come by boat, frowned and looked at the sword-wielding Gilneth soldiers below, and a bad premonition rose in her heart.
Sure enough, her feelings came true.
It didn't take long for a gray-haired old man to get on the boat, and then only Mavi himself followed the old man down.
The other elves made some moves, but then, the other Gilneth ships in the harbor opened their cannon doors one after another, and the muzzles of the black hole were aimed at the night elves' ships, and the number of cannons was hundreds, and a salvo could sink the ship and all the elves on board into the sea.
In the face of such a threat, the elves on the ship finally quieted down.
And Mavi was brought to Duten.
"Your Highness, this is the messenger of the elves."
The old man walked up to Du Teng and said respectfully.
Mavi followed with a slight bow, facing the prince of a country, the actual king, Mavi did not dare to be as arrogant as usual.
It's a pity that no matter how respectful she is, Du Teng looked at her expressionlessly...... For Mavi, his attitude is okay, and he doesn't look down on Mavi as much as he looks down on Tyrande. However, since it has been decided that it is a blood elf, then as a high elf, Mavi, Du Teng can only say sorry.
"Miss Messenger, I know your intentions, but please go back. Gilneth has decided to ally with Quel'Thalas, and Quel'Thalas's request is that Gilneth not have more dealings with the Night Elves, and I believe you will make that decision. So, before I change my mind, I'll give you time to leave, and your people. ”
Duten sat on the throne and looked at Mavi with a smile on his face.
Mavi's face turned cold, "Doesn't Your Highness take into account the feelings of the other members of the Alliance?" I believe that Stormwind and Ironforge are not willing to form an alliance with Quel'Thalas. ”
"Well, I believe it too, so I've already thought of a solution, but you don't have to worry about this matter."
Du Teng smiled, "What, aren't you leaving?" Are you still waiting for me to ask you to leave? ”
Not speculating for more than half a sentence is to say that in the current situation, although the two sides only had a short conversation of two or three sentences, Mavi could already feel Du Teng's determination. also understands that Gilneth is already on the other side, although she doesn't know what the prince in front of her has to rely on, Dana is no longer something she can care about.
Now that Gilneth is changing, the Night Elves must find another way out.
As Mavi said, she could tell that Gilneth would not be willing to make such a decision. So the Night Elves are not at the end of their rope, and they can still find support from Stormwind.
So Mavi said no more, bowed again, and then turned and walked out.
The whole process was not dragged in the slightest, and the whole person was full of heroism.
After watching the other party leave, and then watching the Night Elf's ship disappear into the horizon, Du Teng began to give new orders.
Three days later, the Gilneth fleet, ready to go, finally set sail and, led by Duten, left the waters of Gilneth and headed southwest. Two days later, a huge island appeared in the sight of Du Teng and the others.
"Your Highness, you have found a place!"
From the lookout, the sailors shouted.
"The order goes down, the sails begin to retract, and we are ready to slow down."
Du Teng said to the adjutant beside him.
The adjutant was ordered to retreat, and soon, all the ships of a whole fleet began to slow down. At the same time, in their line of sight, the ever-large fleet began to appear, and then slowly headed towards the Gilneth fleet.
The two sides came into contact half an hour later, and it could be seen that the fleet coming from the opposite side had green flags hanging on the mast. There was also an anchor-shaped emblem in the center of the flag, and Du Teng smiled at the sight of this flag.
Return to the kingdom of Kurtilas, Gianna's hometown, and the most powerful country on the sea among all human kingdoms.
At the same time, he is also one of Duten's intended allies.
