Chapter 593 The Continent in the Mist
After four months of absorption and digestion, Vanessa completely absorbed the power of Titans in the Dragon Soul.
With the intention of strengthening the origin, she absorbed the essence of Ragnaros' flame.
In comparison, flames are in a weak position in terms of quality and quantity, but this is Vanessa's core ability, and is also one of the origins of Azeroth. With the help of local advantages, they can maintain a delicate balance with the power of the Titan.
However, the part of the Titan power obtained from Death Wings was very awkward to mobilize, far less relaxed than the part given by Azadas.
Ragnaros's flame essence made her temper more and more impatient. After being reminded by Jaina twice, she also noticed her subtle changes. She was immersed in the emerald dream from time to time, using the dream to soothe and adjust her mentality.
During this period, the situation on the continent of Azeroth can be described as calm. The alliance is unable to fight again. With the mediation of Thrall, the conflict between Garrosh and the Taurus has been resolved on the surface, but the thorn in his heart is still there. It is difficult for both sides to return to the time when the orcs and the Taurus fight side by side.
Orcs no longer trust Taurus. Taurus is simple and honest, but they are not fools. They can feel the vague guardianship.
Nowadays, the alliance and the tribe are solving internal problems and accumulating strength.
Jaina completed the magical ritual that connects her vitality and arcane in April, and has been helping with disaster relief in Kultilas for two months since then.
Vanessa has been dealing with various problems in China. The main problem is that there is a shortage of food, very shortage, very shortage, and especially shortage!
"Your Majesty, we have found a continent in the south of the Endless Sea that is no less than Northrend." General Wolf returned to Lordaeron and immediately entered the palace to report his discovery.
"Not inferior to Northrend..." Vanessa retelled it casually, and many ministers could not guess what she thought.
Heart-wrenching wolf picked up the chart beside him and circled the southward position in the middle of the chart: "Your Majesty, this is probably the location. Now it is covered with fog. We cannot observe the situation inside. We only know that the area is very large and can be called a continent."
His tone was quite excited. As a navy, he had always been embarrassing in Lordaeron's military combat sequence. From Lordaeron's restoration to the occupation of Northrend, the navy played little roles. But every year the navy had to eat more than 10% of the kingdom's annual fiscal budget. If this money was placed in the army, it would at least be able to arm a new legion.
The army generals had quite a complaint about this, and the general meaning was to occupy the pit and not poop.
Vanessa turned a blind eye to the dispute between the army and the navy, but she also understood that the navy now has a strong desire to fight, but the army lacks supply and would rather farm at home than go out, which leads to further intensification of the conflict.
The Army complained that the Navy was useless, and the Navy disliked the Army's ineffectiveness at critical moments.
Several army generals looked at the charts.
“Too far.”
"We are inadequate in supply and cannot carry out this exploration of the New World."
"Yes, there must be indigenous people inside such a large land, and we are not clear about our enemies. It is not wise to explore rashly now."
Many ministers have various reasons, but the core meaning is only one. One of the reasons is against going to this continent covered by fog. One of the reasons is the most realistic. This continent is too far from Lordaeron.
Vanessa asked, "Bulk General Harrington, how many days will it take to sail from Lordaeron to the continent you discovered?"
Heart-wrenching wolf hesitated for a moment and secretly calculated: "It takes about...it takes about a month."
"Hahahaha--" Several important officials in charge of logistics couldn't help but sneer: "Brother General Harrington, do you know how much food we have to consume along the way if we allocate 30,000 soldiers and take warships to the continent you mentioned? Or are you going to conquer the entire continent with five thousand sailors?"
Vanessa coughed and suppressed all the objections of complaining.
Of course she knew Pandaria in the fog, and also knew that the four wind valleys, which are ripe every year, are treasure land for any agricultural country, and the climate in the South China Sea is relatively comfortable, and all kinds of crops grow very vigorously. This is a hundred times better than Northrend, which has been covered with snow all year round. The Pandaria continent is very important to Lordaeron.
"Your Majesty, we need to be careful, and it is best to consider the feelings of the Allies." Old Fording reminded her in a vague manner.
According to the tacit understanding between Vanessa and King Va, the north of the eastern kingdom belongs to Lordaeron and the south of the Storm Kingdom.
If this tacit understanding is further expanded, it will become the Endless Sea of Lordaeron in the north and the Storm Kingdom in the south.
Although this division is very domineering, full of hegemonic ideas, and does not take the ideas of the indigenous people into consideration, humans are such an animal.
If Lordaeron goes to Pandaria, he will undoubtedly break this tacit understanding, which is not conducive to the unity of the alliance.
"Everything can happen in this world. We are going to open up trade routes, not war... Brigadier Harrington, I want your warships and sailors to be on standby. General Darian Moglani, General Abidis, I want your legion to prepare for an expedition. Monk Nimez, logistics will prepare me for a 20,000 army of supplies."
The opening of trade routes is often the same as war. Back then, the ancestors of Kurtiras also killed all the Druswa natives under the banner of opening up trade routes.
Vanessa knew it in her mind that 20,000 people threw them into Pandaria and couldn't splash any water.
She is just for trade, and she takes advantage of the opportunity, and even if she doesn't have the opportunity, she will be fine. Even if she doesn't occupy the continent of Pandaria, she will establish some strongholds and establish a normal trade relationship with the Panda people.
But before that, some diplomatic work is needed.
"Your Majesty, are we going to that foggy continent?" General Tearful Wolf asked with anticipation.
Vanessa smiled very brightly, and she consciously raised her voice: "Lordalen's next strategic goal is to take down the Broken Islands. Only by occupying the Broken Islands can our island chain be truly complete."
Her voice was filled with joy and excitement, and even the guards outside the door could hear it clearly.
The generals and ministers were a little confused. Although they had never been to the Broken Islands in person, Lordaeron had also conducted small-scale explorations of the islands in the past two years.
There is a civilized desert, a typical poor and bad water place. It doesn’t matter what you want. It’s really meaningless to spend materials to break the archipelago at this moment.
But Vanessa left after giving the order, without giving any further explanation.
Her prestige was similar to the founding king, and the ministers did not dare to question it, so they could only enforce it.
