Crossing Azeroth, starting with the Heroes of Might and Magic system
Chapter 62: Moat is necessary
Golugel knew very well that this group of people had ten priests on the shore who were constantly treating the patients; there were also many troll witch doctors who would stick a wooden stick on the shore, which would also have a healing effect on the sand-scaled fishmen in the water.
After fighting for a long time, they still couldn't defeat the sand-scaled murlocs at all. Instead, more than two hundred black-gilled murlocs died. If the fight continued, I'm afraid even more would die.
Although he could easily defeat the three fishmen of Old Blind Eye, there was also a high-level wizard attacking him on the water, so he had no way to defeat him.
Varian took out a soul contract, handed it to Golugel and said, "This is a soul contract. Once you sign it, you cannot violate it, otherwise you will suffer a backlash from your soul."
Golugel had no choice but to sign the soul contract. After all, being alive is better than being dead.
The battle was over, and Varian, Sen'jin, Old Blind Eye, Golugel and others came to the ship that had been summoned before.
"Golugel, you will be one of us from now on. Lake Naferati will still be managed by the black-gilled mermen." Varian said.
Varian then cast the ship summoning magic.
There was a flash of light, and two fishing boats instantly appeared in the middle of the lake.
Golugel, Senjin, Old Blind and others all stared with their eyes wide open.
Sen Jin asked quickly, "Your Highness, was the magic you just used the ship-summoning spell from the Magic Guild?"
"Yes, you can use it once you have studied it thoroughly. But the prerequisite is that you have your own ship. The ship summoning spell can only summon your own ship. Of course you can buy it from me." Varian said.
Senjin nodded, lost in thought.
Varian said to Golugel, "From now on, the black-gilled murlocs will be responsible for catching fish and crocodiles in Lake Naferiti. These three boats will be under your management. After you catch the fish, you can follow the river to the Reef Sea and then go to the dock market at the Moonbrook Mine to sell them."
"You can use the gold coins you earn from the sales to buy the products you need in Moonbrook Town and Dagger Ridge Fortress."
After hearing this, Golugel was excited. This human prince did not treat the black-gilled merfolk as slaves. It seemed that there was a reason why the sand-scaled merfolk followed him wholeheartedly.
It thought for a moment and said, "There is also a group of murlocs at the bottom of the reef sea near the Savage Coast. They are salt-scale murlocs. What if they block our passage?"
"You go and communicate with them first. If they are willing to join our big family, I can give them a few fishing boats. If they are unwilling, or even block our waterway, come and tell me and I will destroy them." Varian said.
"Yes, Your Highness."
After explaining everything clearly, Varian asked the Sandscale Murlocs and Trolls to approach him and surround him, then he cast the magic of the Time and Space Gate and returned to the branch base.
This wave of operations shocked the black-gilled murlocs. The thousands of sand-scaled murlocs and trolls that were so numerous just now were wiped out in an instant. Such profound time and space magic made them unable to recover for a long time.
After sending the Darkspear trolls back to the cave, Varian used the time-space gate magic again to send the Sandscale Murlocs back to Dagger Ridge.
After finishing all these things, it was already late, and Varian was really tired. He returned to his room in the magic guild and fell into a deep sleep.
After a good night's rest, Varian woke up the next day feeling refreshed. It seemed that sleeping in the magic guild would be more comfortable.
I remembered that we are dividing the base today and can build a base camp.
Without even having time to eat breakfast, Varian immediately built a base camp with his mind.
The base camp of this sub-base is the same as the base camp at Dagger Ridge Castle. Both were upgraded through fortresses. After the base camp was upgraded, the stone wall was like a city gate, almost blocking the cave behind it. All entry and exit of the cave had to pass through the base camp, which greatly enhanced the defense capability of the sub-base.
If we upgrade the base camp into a castle tomorrow, then this cave in Stranglethorn Vale and the branch base in the cave will be very solid.
Looking at the flat basin in front of the base camp and only a small moat in front of the base camp, Varian thought about it and felt that the basin was too easy for the enemy to charge, and the moat was too small and not safe enough.
So he found Sen'jin and said, "By tomorrow, the castle will be built. With a solid castle, it will be difficult for the Bloodscalp Trolls to attack the cave, but I have a suggestion."
Senjin said, "What proposal?"
"There's a basin in front, it's too flat, and the original moat is too small. It's easy for the Bloodscalp Trolls to rush to the castle and attack. I think we can dig a large moat in front of the castle, so that it will be difficult for the Bloodscalp Trolls to rush to the castle and attack." Varian said, pointing to the flat ground in front of the castle.
When Senjin heard this, he thought it made sense, so he discussed the details with Varian.
After some calculations, Varian and Sen'jin unanimously decided to dig a semicircular moat around the castle in front of it. The moat is expected to be 8 meters deep, 15 meters wide, and 2 kilometers long, connecting from the stone mountain on the left side of the castle to the stone mountain on the right side of the castle.
This project is not small. If the Darkspear clan relies on themselves to dig it, it will probably take a long time, so Varian decided to arrange more people to help.
After going back and forth through several time and space gates, the branch base had one thousand more kobold miners and one thousand human miners, all of whom were brought by Varian to assist in digging the moat.
One thousand kobolds, one thousand humans, and nearly two thousand trolls from the Darkspear clan, if they all dig at the same time, it should be quick.
After starting the work, Varian still felt unsafe and suddenly slapped his thigh.
Yes, the turret!
Multiple turrets should be built on both sides of the castle, and multiple cannons should be installed on the castle to make it impregnable.
However, the Storm Kingdom's artillery technology is not very good. At the last military exchange meeting in Lordaeron, the Kingdom of Alterac did display a turret model that combined the dwarven artillery technology and also innovated the ammunition delivery system inside the turret.
The turret is a city defense system with strong attack power and large killing range. It is necessary to build not only the branch base here, but also the Dagger Ridge Fortress.
So he asked the mage of Dagger Ridge to open a portal to the city of Alterac, and he wanted to talk to the king of the Kingdom of Alterac.
The exit of the portal was directly near the entrance of the palace.
After Varian came out, he said to the palace guards: "Prince Varian of Stormwind Kingdom requests an audience with King Aiden Perenolde!"
After checking the token, the guard said, "Your Highness, please come in!"
King Aiden Perenolde of the Kingdom of Alterac welcomed Prince Varian who had come from afar.
In the Alterac Palace, Varian tasted the Alterac delicacies, including Alterac cold cheese, grilled lion steaks, grilled lion meat, grilled bear steaks, and so on.
In Varian's impression, Aiden Perenolde, as a king, actually had no kingly demeanor, was greedy and mean, and changed his mind according to the situation. In the Second War, because he was worried that humans would be defeated by orcs, he led the Kingdom of Alterac to sign a treaty with the Horde and betrayed the Alliance.
