Patrick didn't have to worry about Rogue's Harbor, and once the camp was established, the troops drew up a detailed map of the surrounding area, which was one of the territories of the Kingdom of Quel'Salas in Northrend.

But this is not enough, this one territory alone is of little use.

After a few walks in Scoundrel Harbor, he checked the situation nearby: "Ready, we will continue to the Dragonbone Wilderness to establish a second base for the regular army of the Northern Expedition." ”

"Second territory?" Aurelia asked, puzzled, "Why did you build it in the Dragonbone Wilderness?" "In Aurelia's idea, if a second realm and Rogue's Harbor were to be interdependent, the two should not be too far apart, at least to ensure that one side could come to the rescue in time if one side was attacked.

Patrick's hand cast an arcane glow: "It's not enough here, the main purpose of this Northern Expedition is to wipe out the Scourge Legion, and Howling Fjords are obviously too far away from Icecrown Glacier to be used as a strategic base." ”

"And my real target port is in the Dragonbone Wilderness. Rogue's Harbor is located at the very end of the Northrend continent, and it is also a difficult place for our enemies to interfere, and the fact that these pirates have lived here for so many years is enough to prove that it is still slightly safer, and it is precisely because of this that we can rest assured that we can set up a port here to be used as a transit point for the Arcane Covenant in Northrend. Moreover, the sacred land of the blue dragon is in Koalada, so that our forces have been united in the entire sea south of Northrend. ”

"You're familiar with this place?" Saragos asked curiously. After all, it was almost impossible for an elf who had come to the Northrend continent for the first time to conceive such a strategic arrangement in the eyes of Saragoth.

"Books, don't forget, the way we acquire new knowledge is to read books." Patrick glanced at Saragoth and continued: "Looking at the whole of Azeroth, the newly established Arcane Convention has the Kurtilas Naval Army and the Unicorn Legion, which means that the strongest force in the naval battle on the entire Azeroth continent is us, and don't forget the existence of the Naga. Even if the tribe and the alliance are exhausted, they are powerless in the face of the Naga in the water, and in the naval battle, we are completely invincible. ”

"You won't mind if I say that, Ms. Vaschi."

"What you say is true." Patrick's compliment was right in Vasqui's hands, and the Deep Sea Witch was still very proud of that. Regardless of whether everyone can swim, orc warriors and human paladins are indeed troops with strong combat effectiveness, but how much strength can they exert in the sea, as long as they fall into the water, an ordinary Naga thug will dare to attack the ninth-order powerhouse.

Whether it is humans and orcs, or we elves, we are all homeothermic animals, and in this extremely low temperature of the Northland, even if the Nagas do not directly do anything to the drowning man, as long as he cannot be rescued, after a long time, the cold sea will take their lives.

"It is precisely our navy that is the strongest, and we can use our navy to connect this place, with the base of the Dragonbone Wilderness, and Koalada, to form an Arcane Covenant line of influence, and then gradually radiate to the mainland. And as our trump card force, the aircraft carrier battle group is not suitable for offshore operations, with the island as a base, plus the aircraft carrier in the sea, the dragon eagle in the air, and the naga in the water, who is our opponent? The next step was to rely on the coastline to march to land and complete the Northern Expedition. ”

"You're not like a mage at all, you're more like a strategist." Aurelia thought for a while and said a word, after marrying Patrick for so many years, her husband's habits Aurelia knows very well, Patrick's living habits are like an old mage.

Otaku, likes to study arcane, likes to meditate on runes (books) for a long time. However, countless battles and decisions have shown that Patrick's research is not only about arcane arts, from governing the country, military planning, to people's hearts and strategic control, Patrick has his own opinions, and it is also Patrick's decisions that exceed the understanding of all High Elves that set Quel'Thalas on the road to revival.

Hearing this, Patrick also smiled and said, "Actually, I should thank you for this." ”

"Me?" Aurelia wondered what it had to do with her.

"Remember the past? The first time I met you, I was curious about the family ethos of the Windranger family. Obviously the head of the Quel'Thalas Far Wanderer's forces, and a member of the Council, your family should inherit the style of the top nobles of Quel'Thalas. However, all the Windrangers tend to practice and exercise themselves all the time. ”

Patrick grew up in Silvermoon and met the real Quel'Salas high-level. Those real nobles and big families in Silvermoon City, their lives can't be compared to even the kings of the human kingdom, and they can only be regarded as having a miserable life when they come to stretch out their hands and eat to open their mouths. It's a comfortable life, but it can make you lose your ambition and get lost in pleasure and indulgence.

"That's right, I understand that all knowledge and progress are earned by hard work, nothing is innate, and I sacrificed a lot of time to learn other aspects of knowledge in order to get a little bit of progress, so I need to thank you."

A smile appeared on Aurelia's face, and Patrick's words made her feel good.

"When the construction of the port here is completed, let Eri stay for the time being and lead part of the army to maintain the stable development here, and the others will go to the Dragonbone Wilderness with us to open up a second port to be used as the base of the Sunfury Legion, and prepare to start the Northern Expedition."

……

The construction of the island is still relatively fast, it is said that some materials are constantly being transported down from the floating city, a new port of Quel'Salas is being built, and the Ranger commander of the city of daylight, Garind Charlon, leads his troops to explore the situation on the island and draw a map.

The elves of Silvermoon City have almost eliminated manual labor, and most of the rough or tiring work is basically undertaken by pirate captives and those mercenaries, in fact, in the eyes of the elves, the more tiring things are in the eyes of those sailors who have been running the sea for many years and robbing houses, it is simply pediatric, and it is precisely like this, the captives and hires are very hard to do these jobs.

With the opening of the city's construction, those pirate captives and hires also enjoyed the way of life of the High Elves, although the shelter and food they got were not at all comparable to the elves' own share, but it was definitely much better than their original life, and many pirates even sighed, knowing that there was such a thing, they had already turned against Silvermoon Harry and went directly to the High Elves.
