Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

"Things are different and people are different..."

Walking out of the sorceress's residence, Dacus couldn't help but sigh. He had been in this world for a long time, and the passage of time had left unnoticed marks on him. It had been so long that he was close to the age of knowing the destiny; it had been so long that if it were another time traveler, he would have probably become an emperor and accomplished great things; it had been so long...

"Do you remember your age?"

Facing Dacus's question, Genevieve, who was always sixteen years old, showed a playful smile, with the corners of her lips slightly raised. Then, she made a gesture of silence, as if to tell Dacus that it was better not to ask certain questions.

"Oh, sorry, I was presumptuous." Daxus was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and chuckled with a hint of self-mockery.

"Age has lost its meaning to me, just like... some elves who have lived for a long time?" Genevieve's tone was relaxed. While avoiding the question, she led the topic in another direction.

"Yes."

The youthful light in Genevieve's eyes that could not be changed by time made Daquus feel an indescribable emotion in his heart. He sighed slightly and responded softly.

He already felt that he had gradually integrated into the rhythm of life of the immortals, or rather, he had adapted to this unchanging, endless flow of time. As a being that had transcended time, he was no longer the young man who was full of curiosity and anxiety when he first crossed over. His thoughts seemed to have merged with this land and the elves, and he gradually got used to the tranquility and weight brought by the endless years.

While sighing, Daquus walked in another direction. He wanted to ask Isharion what happened last night.

As he walked, his mind began to drift, and he began to search, recalling the past events with Drusala.

He and Drusala...

There was no emotional factor in this marriage at the beginning. It was a serious political marriage.

He first saw Drusala in the council chamber of the Black Tower of Malekith, where Drusala stood as Morathi's handmaiden.

He was like Liu Laolao, wandering around the parliament hall, looking and touching here and there, as if he was not Duruchi, and the depressing environment and Malekith and the others did not exist. He was just a simple tourist, curious about everything he saw and wanted to touch everything.

The second time he saw Drusala was on the streets of Nagarond, a date he would never forget. After all, who would date in such a place? Others had beautiful scenery, but here they were looking at the corpses blown by the wind outside the tower in the distance...

There is no doubt that the relationship between the two is a political marriage, a purely political marriage.

When Annasara first considered this, her purpose was very clear. She wanted to combine the two powers to increase the influence of the Hell Disaster Family. At the same time, she wanted to increase the influence of Dacus in Nagarond, so that the northerners of the Duruchi would be afraid. There was no problem at all. There were many advantages and almost no disadvantages. There was no solution to the jealousy of everyone, unless someone died, either Dacus or everyone else.

But what she didn't expect was what happened next...

Morathi used Drusala as a card, and in order to break the situation and keep a hand, he secretly stabbed him at the critical and necessary moment, just like when Julian interfered with Julian in the duel with Tai Ritian, just like when Malus interfered with Malus in the duel with Tai Ritian, just like...

Malekith, as usual, watched coldly, like a spectator, waiting for his mother to do something weird.

But no matter what, the marriage was finally successful. Moreover, Anathara, Malekith and the two pairs of close-knit sisters successfully handled the matter of Drusala properly, completely destroying Morathi's plan.

Failure of Morathi's plot was like losing the lady but not the army. But he did not reap the fruits of his own labor, which turned into his own failure.

In fact, although Drusala wanted Morathi to die, she did not play a key role in her downfall. There were many reasons why she did not engage in some traditional conspiracy, such as winning over the core sorceresses to turn against her or assassinating Morathi like Hellebron did.

If we were to rank the people in Naggaroth who want Morathi dead, Hellebron would undoubtedly be ranked first. There is no particular ranking for second place, but Drusala would definitely occupy a seat. The reason is...

And he and Drusala eventually became something beyond a simple marriage relationship. In a way, they became soul mates like in CK3.

In terms of marriage, Dacus had no choice at first. As the core figure of the Hell's Disaster Family, he was destined to be unable to escape the established rules. Who made him a noble? Under this interweaving of power and responsibility, he was like a chess piece on the board, and he had to find his footing within the framework of the rules.

When he cannot break the rules, he can only learn how to apply them and play with the complex power struggles and exchanges of interests.

Maybe... in a certain timeline, after completing his first trip to Lustria, he would let the Lizardmen slaughter all his Duruchi followers, and he would stay in Lustria permanently? And like Slann, he would ride on the back of a triceratops and lead the Lizardmen around the rainforest. To find the Amazons? To socialize with the Amazon queen?

At that time, he did have his own plans. For example, after some operations, he would let Drusala take over Morathi's legacy, all kinds of legacy...

Those accumulated resources and power are enough to help Drusala further consolidate his position.

There is an old saying that goes, since we are here, it is New Year's Day... No. What is yours is mine, and what is mine is still mine. And Dacus is me, and Drusala is you.

however……

Everything happened so fast, so fast that he was caught off guard, and all his plans were disrupted. It was like a storm, coming so fast and violently that he had no time to prepare.

As fast as...

Those plans that were once carefully woven collapsed in an instant and turned to ashes.

But fortunately, the result was good. Morathi, Helleben and Tularis died, and the Gorond and Har Gansi groups were destroyed. These two tumors that Dakwus believed to be troubling Duruchi disappeared. Now, we only need to solve some follow-up problems, such as further cleaning, containment, etc.

Of course, the most important thing is to complete the transformation of Malekith's religious identity, but he is not worried about this. After all, Malekith has done a lot of shameless things, and this one is not a big deal.

Moreover, he also left a loophole, which he had left long ago. Edrezer was not like Kane. He had many elects. He was one, Bainie was one, Kolan was one, Celile was one, and so on. Malekith could also be one.

After the third round of reforms, the Edreze Cult system will still operate and become a similar existence to the Officers Club. He is not one of the leaders. Within the framework of the cult system, Flanes is his superior. Flanes is the leader of the Black Heart Cult, and he is one of the members of the cult.

As for the great leader who is above all the leaders, there has been no explanation. But it doesn't matter, there will be one soon, and it will become a rule and be passed down forever.

The army must be in the hands of the Phoenix King.

Daxus has already decided that there is no need to demolish Gorond and it should continue to operate. The gold mine under the Tower of Prophecy should continue to be dug and emptied as soon as possible, and some population, mainly military dependents, should be moved here.

Rebuild Gorond into a fortress, withdraw the Dread Lords and a small number of troops from the northern stronghold, or in other words, make a large-scale contraction of Duruchi's northern defense line.

There are many reasons why he decided to do this. One is the scope of authority of the Dread Lord. In the new army system, the Dread Lord is equivalent to a general officer, and at least has to lead a legion of about 6,000 people. What's the point of staying in the north and leading a few hundred people? In fact, this problem can be solved easily by demoting the authority of the leader of the northern stronghold, but it is meaningless to do so.

The reason why the northern stronghold exists is mainly to be used as an outpost. When facing a small-scale chaos wave attack, we choose to defend it. When facing a large-scale attack... we have to be like Ms. Viena.

It is hard to say whether this is exile, an important responsibility, or both.

But for the previous Duruchi society, the northern stronghold was a good place to show their self-worth, where young nobles would gain practical experience, which is the so-called tempering into a strong man. Of course, there is also wealth... The Chaos Wave will attack the stronghold, and the stronghold will often find opportunities to raid small-scale tribes, killing and capturing prisoners.

Hirsis, Dorian, and others have served in the Northern Stronghold. The Northern Stronghold is the only choice for the Northern Duruchi or the lower-level Duruchi to make their fortune. As for the probability...

However, this is no longer appropriate. The framework is still the same, but the system has changed.

Daxus cancelled the Hakseye Trial Voyage and sent the underage children of the powerful to military schools to cultivate discipline and responsibility, shape the spirit of teamwork, exercise physical and psychological qualities, cultivate leadership and decision-making abilities, enhance loyalty to the emperor and the spirit of collectivism, etc.

There are pros and cons between the two. It turns out that it is like practicing Gu. One of the ten strongest ones is born. Sometimes you can draw an SSR or SR, but more often it is cannon fodder, consumables, or a backup. In terms of scores, it is 80 or 90 points. The remaining nine are ruthlessly eliminated. There are no weaklings in Naggaroth!
Officers who come out of the military academy system have a clear average value, which is within the passing range, with a large amount of management, saturation and stability, and a high growth value in the future.

Therefore, they might as well go all out and withdraw all their forces, turning Gorond into the forefront in resisting the tide of chaos.

He was not afraid of Gorond becoming bigger for the second time. The garrison stationed in Gorond must have been newly reorganized. In the first and second waves, their loyalty and ability were worth guaranteeing. Besides, the distortion cannon and the red dragon were there...

Before building the railway from Nagarond to Hag Graves, the section from Nagarond to Gorond was built first to accumulate experience. The distance between the two is short and the terrain is flat. There is no need to dig a hole or build a bridge. You can just take the humming train and arrive in half a day, and make a round trip in one day.

In this way, the military dependents will not be idle. There will be a lot of manual orders, and materials will be transported in and out continuously. At critical moments, they can also transport troops.

The Tower of Prophecy was accepted and led by the sorceress of the Clarkalond faction. This is what Daxus said when he went to the sorceress camp. The plan of the Nagor to train sorceresses remained unchanged. The Tower of Prophecy would continue to be the same as before, as a warning, to discover the signs of a large-scale chaos wave in advance through prophecy and spying.

We'll just start working on it based on the situation when the time comes.

In addition to being the front line in resisting the tide of Chaos, Gorond is also an excellent training ground. Its defense system and streets are perfect for training the Duruchi army in sieges and street fighting.

One, three, five, six, Chaos Wave attacks, two, four, six, eight, Duruchi attacks. No problem, this world has eight days a week.

The couple talked to each other in the camp, reluctant to leave, and staged a cheesy scene. It was nothing else, Daxus was going to return to Nagarond, he had already arranged the matter of Har Gansi, when the army moved, the navy would also move, before the Sea of ​​​​Evil and Grudges froze, they would deal with the black ark that did not participate in the Chapeyuto holiday, and cooperate with the army's attack.

He is not responsible for the specifics, and Drucci does not belong to him alone.

Drusala stayed in Gorond for a while to help Anasara count the wealth of the Tower of Prophecy and identify the sorceresses.

In the original plan, Drusala might replace Morathi, sit in the Tower of Prophecy and become the leader of Gorond. She has the ability, and her identity and status are sufficient.

But this was just the initial expectation. Things are completely different now than they were in the past. She no longer needs these resources as a trump card. After everything is done, she will return to Naggaroth, run around Naggaroth in the following days, and occasionally go to Asheril to do her job as the Minister of Education.

There is not just one stronghold in the north, but a group of them, arranged in a line, from the westernmost to the easternmost part of Naggaroth. If we are going to release them, we must release them all.

Therefore, there is an explanation for Hal Gansi and Karonde Kar, both cities in the northern part of Naggaroth.

The main theory is that in Har Gansi, although Karonde Kar is a northern city, it is separated from the north by a strait, and the Sea of ​​​​Evil has an ice period...

But Karonde Karl is not in the Sea of ​​Malice...

Instead, it is in the Frost Heart Sea connected to the Vast Ocean. It may be due to the climate, ocean currents, etc., the Frost Heart Sea is not frozen, and Kalond Kaal is hit by waves all year round. This is also the reason why Kalond Kaal's ship goes to Krakalond. The mess between the two cities is the fault of the rich and powerful and the animal trainers. The captains and sailors still have to make a living, which is not shabby. They are the main consumers of the Krakalond dock area.

If the Chaos Tide wants to go south and attack Caronde Carr, it must have ships. Isn't this...

Drucci Navy: Thank you for the reward from Chaos Wave.

Daxus planned to relocate the remaining residents of Hal Gansi to Naggarond, so that those residents could experience the new era of the Duruchi society up close and experience what the Duruchi society was like without the Kane sect.

Har Gansi was released to the Chaos Tide. When he went to the Sinister Peaks, he took the route from Naggarond to Har Gansi, which was suitable for the army to march and fight, and Har Gansi was also a coastal city...

When King of Ulthuan, the army and navy need to work closely together, because of the terrain of King of Ulthuan. If Drucci organizes a battle similar to the Incheon Landing, it will inevitably double the effort, seize the strategic initiative, and change the strategic situation.

Purely giving Asur a problem, the front was still in confrontation, and the rear was landed, how to confront? Retreat? Did he think that Duruqi was blind, and took advantage of Duruqi's inattention to use the night and magic?

Of course you can, there is no problem with that, but I'm sorry, the Druchi army of the new era is composed of professional soldiers. They have theory and practice, they train physical fitness in spring and autumn and march in summer, so their physical fitness and marching speed are absolutely top-notch in the Middle Ages.

Asur left a small number of troops to provide cover and block? Asur's system... who to leave behind to provide cover would take a few days to study, unless a general with a fearless and sacrificial spirit took the initiative to stand up, but how many such generals were there in Asur? Moreover, the generals were willing, but what about the soldiers?

As long as a small number of troops could be left behind, the landing of the Druchi Navy would be a success. After all, it consumed a portion of the enemy's military strength and reduced its health a little bit.

Moreover, militarily speaking, retreat is more difficult than attack, and it is easy for the retreat to turn into a rout and a disastrous defeat.

How to defend the rear? How many troops and ships should be deployed in coastal cities? No troops should be deployed in places suitable for landing. It is meaningless to deploy too few troops, which is a waste of resources. It is also meaningless to deploy too many troops, which is a waste of resources. Reduce the number of soldiers in the front. Asur's population is there, and mobilizing civilians will affect production.

Drucci was not stupid either. There was no need for him to go up there headfirst. Just the diversion and attack from above would be enough to give Asur a hard time.

Of course, these are still just theories and remain in the minds of a few Druchi generals. It takes practice to transform theory into practice.

Initially, Daxus was going to train on the line of Hag Graef and Clar Karond, but now... he can adjust and train on the line of Naggarond and Hal Ganthy, which has plenty of landing points and cities.

Release Har Gansi to Chaos Tide as a place for the Druki navy and army to gain experience and get free labor dispatch...

On the other side, Aris had a conversation with Isharion and Bel-Ahor.

"Have you two decided to stay here?" (End of this chapter)
