On this day in August, fear and uneasiness hung over the entire retreating fleet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The warship of the nobles in front of them had been attacked by the Bloodsail Pirates, and the news spread to the entire fleet through the Griffin Knights.

Commodore Cook, who has experience in naval warfare, had already decided to let the entire fleet return. However, the messenger sent by Lothar insisted that Anduin and Duke could handle each other's fleet, and that the fish-man forces led by Naga had already rushed over.

After hesitating, Cook decided to maintain three-quarters of the sails, and deliberately split the fleet into two, with the Kurtilas fleet in front opening the way with a certain combat effectiveness, and the transports behind had a chance to escape if they saw that something was wrong.

Three hours later, a large field of blood sails appeared on the horizon.

The strange scarlet almost made the lookout subconsciously ring the alarm bell. In fact, there was a young lookout who did. But Kuhl, who foresaw the danger, arranged for double the lookout, and another, more sophisticated lookout, stopped the young man.

"Wait! you can see the flag above!"

After seeing it clearly, all the lookouts were dumbfounded.

"Captain, I suggest you must come and see this. ”

That's right, it's indeed the ship of the Bloodsail Pirates.

The Kultilas Navy, which is in the same vein, almost recognizes those ships when they turn to ashes.

The design of one crosssail and three jibs to maintain flexibility in all winds, the specially raised broadside for broadside warfare, and the removable wooden outer deck for artillery warfare all made it clear to the navy that it was indeed its old adversary.

However, the Stormwind Kingdom's Golden Lion Banner hanging from the main mast is a sign to the world that this is already the property of the Stormwind Kingdom.

Kul Tiras's navy's eyes were on fire when they saw it.

Before becoming a Bloodsail Pirate, the leader of the Bloodsail Pirates, the then Duke of Farreville, built the best ships in the whole of Kul Tiras.

In terms of quality alone, even above the main fleet of Admiral Dalein Prodmore. The only difference was that the Duke of Farreville took a relatively small number of ships, consisting of 12 large merchant ships and 24 warships. After being remodeled and upgraded, these 36 ships are definitely the capital ships of the Bloodsail Pirates.

Now that a full 12 capital ships have been fished out by the Stormwind Kingdom, it's no wonder that the people of Kul Tiras are not hot. If they hadn't known that the Stormwind Kingdom was about to fall, they would have almost suspected that the Stormwind Kingdom would endanger their supremacy at sea.

Not only that, but the standard of those newly built small warships was also quite good.

Together with the ships that the original nobles had taken, what was presented to the Kurtilas was a huge fleet of 70 warships.

If it weren't for the telescopes that saw the deck with Naga and the Fishmen escorting the Bloodsail Pirates to work, the people of Kul Tiras would have gone berserk with jealousy.

Brigadier General Cook put down his binoculars and muttered to himself, "Hell, if it weren't for the fact that we had more powerful green skins to clean up, I would definitely advise the Admiral to suppress the Storm Kingdom when I went back." ”

On the Poseidon, Van Cleef leaned on the porthole, staring at the strange fleet that was heading backwards from the south of the fleet. The distance between the two sides was so close that he could even see the desperate and frustrated expressions on the faces of those noble private soldiers.

It was not a sign of joy for the rest of the world.

If I had to describe them in one word, it would be - mourning dogs!

The agitated blood pumped out of Van Cleef's heart, igniting his whole body, and he only felt that his body and soul were hot.

The aristocracy is finished!

Those arrogant and arrogant aristocrats are finished!

The voice was so clear, so real, that it almost made Van Cleef unable to control himself.

No matter how Duke does it, next, when the rotten flesh is cut off, even if Stormwind City falls, the Stormwind Kingdom will surely usher in a new life!

Before you know it, Edwin Van Cleef's heart is full of Duke's light. It was the fanaticism that made him give everything he had, including his loyalty, his life, his soul, and even his beloved daughter Vanessa.

It was late at night, and Van Cleef couldn't calm down for a long time.

Of course, he is not the only one who can't be calm.

King Ryan read the report three times, and after reading it, he was still speechless for a full minute.

The report was too shocking.

Not only him, but all the high-ranking nobles who were currently in Stormwind were silent.

When the Bloodsail Pirates attacked, the demons who revealed their true colors caused the largest death of nobles in the history of the Stormwind Kingdom.

Of the 387 nobles with titles, only 32 survived, and all of them were wounded. Seven families have been wiped out forever, and the remaining 13 families are also sparsely populated. And half of the surviving nobles were minors.

Most of them were severely frightened.

This is not a report fabricated by someone or a certain force. The testimonies of more than 800 survivors are almost unanimous. These survivors also included several extremely devout priests.

Not only them, but also the testimonies of the Bloodsail pirate captives.

Ryan closed his eyes in pain: "Do you want me to tell the people that the lords they trust and take as their leaders, the nobles of the Stormwind Kingdom who have inherited the Sauradin Great, and that a tenth of them are demons?"

Ryan's voice was not loud, but it was clear in every corner of the council room.

Everyone looked at each other.

If it does, it will be too much of a blow to morale.

At this time, the Count of Caton, who had been an ally of the House of Brando, raised his hand lightly and asked to speak: "Why can't we think of the good? We have enough fishermen to act as sailors. We can evacuate our citizens twice as fast. ”

Ryan shuddered, and suddenly there seemed to be a little warmth in his chest: yes, the loss of the people will be reduced.

But......

Earl Caton spoke again: "The local lords who died in this battle, I think that when announcing the results to the outside world, we should first respect their opinions." After all, they are the cornerstones of the kingdom. ”

The Earl's words are simply heavenly.

It is true that most of the nobles who withdrew this time, but not every nobleman can evacuate. For example, those nobles who held important military positions in the kingdom.

His own heirs turned into demons and killed their own family...... How could such a shameful thing be announced? In fact, the reason was that they had already thought about it, but they didn't dare to bring it up.

Now that Count Caton opened his mouth and gave them this step, they were so happy that they wanted to run up to the earl and kiss the earl on the spot: Yo, sure enough, you still have to rely on your own people at the critical moment. (To be continued.) )
