Take the ride to dominate the game

Chapter 93 The Battle of Heron Town

Harrenhal gate.

There were seven or eight carriages and ox carts parked beside the thirty or so horse-riding guards.

Mrs. He'an glanced at the west side, "It still hasn't come, the cavalry from the western border has not arrived at Helun Town yet, shall we leave later?"

The manager, Li Cha, looked anxiously at his elderly master, "Get in the carriage and run away. The spies of the Lion Family Army have appeared in front of Helun town in a grand manner. If you don't run away, you may not be able to escape. The cavalry in the western region Not all of them are aristocrats, I'm afraid you will not be able to get well if you fall into their hands."

"I still think I can wait. I don't know why, but that Bracken looks very reliable." Mrs. He'an was tired from standing, so she sat down on the low stool of the carriage.

Li Cha was so anxious that his head was sweating profusely, and the guards around him helplessly shook their heads and smiled wryly as they looked at his gradually fainting lord.

"I'm really convinced of you, this is burning my ass, and you're still so leisurely."

Li Cha complained repeatedly, but he still couldn't urge his lord to lift his butt and get on the carriage.

At this moment, there was a slight tremor on the ground.

"Get in the carriage quickly, Tywin's cavalry is here." Li Cha was shocked, he didn't think about why the advance cavalry from the western region came so quickly, he directly helped the old woman under the armpit, thinking about carrying her into the carriage.

Mrs. He'an sat for a while, recovered, looked at the shaking North, and felt relieved.

"Li Cha, it's the cavalry of our Hejian people who came, that Arthur brought someone to rescue me."

Li Cha was slightly taken aback, then turned to the north, and saw that they were indeed cavalry from the Riverlands: "Lord Edmure sent someone to rescue us, the Tully family is a real relative."

Minissa Tully, the Duchess of Tully's Duchess, is from the He'an family. Although Mrs. He'an and her are just sisters-in-law, in terms of relationship, the Tully family is the closest in the He'an family.

Steward Harrenhal narrowed his eyes and recognized the banner of the incoming army.

"The silver eagle flag with a purple background, the black farmer's flag with a rice dumpling bottom, the black dragon golden-eyed quartered flag, the green dragon and white pagoda quartered flag, the people who came are Mallister, Darry's family, Travel Rest City Vance, and Alan City Vance's family."

While thinking about it, he sighed:

"It seems that Lord Edmure still hasn't forgotten your aunt. In the final analysis, relatives are the most important thing, and that Arthur is simply unreliable."

Mrs. He'an shook her head and did not refute her manager. She insisted in her heart that it was the young man Arthur who came.

……

The majestic Harrenhal stood in the distance, and from a long distance, one could clearly see the five huge towers that pierced into the sky.

Arthur, who was observing the surroundings while riding on the road, felt depressed for a while.

He thought about changing the flag for himself before, but always forgot.

This small mistake was revealed in this rescue operation led by troops.

The cavalrymen of each family were flying their own flags, which made the peasants who saw along the road praise them for a while.

He is the leading general, but he doesn't even have a banner, which is not acceptable.

He can't go out of his way to serve as soldiers in the western border, and give these families all the fame.

Fortunately, there should be a small workshop like a dyeing workshop in Heron Town, so it would not be a big problem to get him a flag.

The pattern is slightly changed from Bracken's original banner, golden shield and red horse.

The golden shield turned into a golden Guandao, and the red horse turned into a giant horse in golden armor.

These are the two traits Arthur is best known for right now.

After a while of riding, they finally arrived at the bottom of the huge Harrenhal.

From a distance, Arthur saw Mrs. He'an ready to flee.

"Hey, I'm here on time." Arthur yelled at He'an's family as he took the lead to rush to the gate of the castle.

Mrs. He'an saw that the person she expected came, and her face showed a little joy: "It's quite on time. You told us to wait for three weeks, but you came two days after No. 20."

Arthur shook his head helplessly, "Isn't this the magic mountain that can run too fast? I chased him from here to the middle of the Red Fork River. It took me three and a half days to chase him, and then another eight days of pursuit before I ran to find him near the Red Pink City." , and then killed Clegane. It took another five days to go to Golden Tooth City, and then take a boat all the way from Riverrun City, four days on the water and one and a half days on land. you."

He jumped off his horse and walked to Mrs. He'an and Li Cha, "It seems that I came just in time. Where are Tywin's cavalry? How many are there?"

The accompanying Raymond Darry, Patrick, Marco Pepper, sharpshooter Anguy, head of the blood troupe Wag, and the cavalry who had been running for a day also dismounted, drinking water and staying in place. Piss piss.

Of course, the horses were also fed fodder by the cavalry.

"Heron Town is only half an hour's ride away from the advance cavalry of the western border. The spies have already appeared outside the town, which makes the tens of thousands of refugees there very uneasy. Right now, the road from here to Heron Town has been taken by the fleeing refugees. Blocked."

"As for the number of people, at least thousands, our news was reported by the mayor, and his militiamen only dared to watch from a distance."

Although he was surprised why Arthur led the team, Li Cha still told him the information he had in time.

As the chief steward of a big castle, his energy-raising skills are still very good, and he didn't show his thoughts on his face.

"You cavalry are the former army, aren't you? How many people did Lord Edmure send, eight thousand? Or ten thousand?" The Harrenhal Chief asked.

"There are only 780 and three people now." Arthur replied, "More than 3000 infantry will come later, but they are not sent by Edmure. He wants to fight the partial divisions in the west at Riverrun first, and then fight Tywin. Decisive battle. These cavalry and the follow-up troops are all borrowed from me."

When we set off from Riverrun, there were 30 cavalrymen including Garremont, Marco, Patrick, Angaiwag, and [-] people. Only a few small boats capsized. Although the soldiers swam to other boats, the packed armor sank. To the Red Fork River.

To make matters worse, the horses on the big boat were quite seasick, and they could still stand up on the boat, but they lay down when they landed.

So after landing on land, Arthur left 47 soldiers who had lost their armor and their horses were seasick to stay where they were and look after the poor horses.The remaining 780 people were brought here by him.

Asking soldiers for rescue is a big favor, Arthur explained the relationship inside clearly to Mrs. He'an, lest he was the one who did the work, but it was the Tully family far away in Riverrun who fell into the favor.

There was a hint of disappointment in Li Cha's eyes, but he didn't say anything.

Mrs. He'an let out a long sigh.

"I knew that Edmure would not send someone here. He might not even know where my aunt is. This relative is not very reliable."

"Since you are here, I don't have to run away. Let's go to the castle to rest. I can see that the group of boys behind you are exhausted."

Mrs. He An greeted.

Her servants were clever enough to lead the guests' horses into the castle.

"Wait." Arthur stopped the servants' actions, "Tywin's cavalry is not far away, and there are peasants fleeing on the road. The cavalry from the west came in a hurry, and they must rob to replenish the army. I have to rescue them." landless peasants."

He turned his head towards the soldiers behind him, "You are very tired, but Tywin's cavalry is even more tired. They have been running for five days in a row, and it is time for their eyes to see stars. Get on your horses, before they stand still , we give them a head-on blow."

Several high-ranking nobles including Patrick and Marco also repeated Arthur's order, which made the soldiers who had just dismounted to rest put on their helmets and get back on their horses.

Arthur also jumped on his giant horse and shouted at Richard: "Don't close the door of Harrenhal, I want the civilians of Harren Town to come in and take refuge."

Li Cha was taken aback, "What are you talking about? Isn't this letting soldiers from the Western Region come in?"

He didn't want to carry out this order. After all, Harrenhal was his master's home, not Arthur's, let alone the exiled civilians.

"Do as he said." Mrs. He'an stood up and walked in front of the reinforcements, "Boys, my wife wishes you a successful first battle."

"The first battle must be won!" Arthur turned his horse's head and raised his knife and shouted.

This not only responded to Mrs. He'an, but also boosted the morale of the Hejian cavalry.

"Definitely!"

The cavalry were also infected by Arthur's majestic fighting spirit. With a shout, they rushed towards the town of Heron, following the No. [-] warrior in the river who ran out first.

Nearly 800 people marched together to meet the invaders in the western border. The tall back of the golden armored giant horse at the front gave many people courage and let them dispel the exhaustion of chasing after them.

The will of the whole team to fight has reached its peak.

Not far away, I saw a large number of civilians either driving ox carts, or pushing carts by themselves, dragging their families to the northeast.

"Go to Harrenhal, where the gates are always open for you," Arthur shouted.

Some cavalry were sent out to carry out the mission of shouting.

Some farmers heard Arthur's words and adjusted their direction silently.

Some are different, and they still go northeast as usual.

Someone even reminded: "My lords, hurry up and go north. Duke Tywin's army has thousands of people, and they are all coming here."

"That's right, you guys are not enough to beat Tywin's people? It's more important to save your life."

"There is a man named Arthur the Righteous in the north. It is said that he killed the Magic Mountain. He will protect us."

A group of fleeing peasants said to the passing cavalry.

They were proud of the courage of this group of cavalry in the river, but they didn't want them to die in vain.

"I am the Arthur you speak of. Some call me righteous, and others call me brave." He reined in his horse and shouted.

"If I leave you alone today because of insufficient troops, then I am not worthy of these two titles. Even if the enemy is outnumbered, I will still lead the army to attack until you all enter Harrenhal safely."

"Now, everyone, enter Harrenhal for refuge, and then watch us chop down the invaders in the western region."

"follow me!"

The last call was to the river cavalry behind him.

The speed of the entire team suddenly increased, rushing towards the west.

After Arthur shouted, most of the refugees chose to go to Harrenhal. They originally went to join Arthur of the Moulin Rouge. Since the Lord is here, there is no need to go north to cross the Red Fork River. .

……

outside the town of Heron.

A western agent is reporting to Amory Lodge, who is leading the army.

Behind Rocky, there were [-] western cavalry in crimson robes and black armor.

A league in front of his eyes, a large group of river cavalry was clearly visible.

"My lord, there are about 800 troops here, fighting the flags of Haijiang City, Darry City, and the two Vance families. They should have been in Riverrun City, but I don't know why they appeared here."

Professional spies were much more professional than Mayor Heron's militiamen. Not only did they accurately provide the number of enemy troops, but they also found out their origins.

"Is there anything unusual?"

The oath knight Rocky of Casterly Rock asked.

The Mountain is dead, and he's basically Tywin's most powerful oath knight, so it's his turn to win the chance to seize Harrenhal.

This is a great achievement.

"The leading general is riding a golden armored horse and holding a golden sword. He is suspected to be Arthur Bracken in the Battle of Golden Tooth City." The spies replied with some hesitation.

He wasn't sure that it was Arthur, but the features were too obvious.

In the past ten days, rumors that Arthur killed 5000 people in Golden Tooth City and dared not step forward spread throughout the army in the western region.

After all, no one wants to meet such a ferocious enemy.

"It doesn't matter if it's him!" Rocky waved his hand, "It's just Arthur, I'll kill it with one hand."

After taking Harrenhal, the entire southern part of the Riverlands was left to the troops of the West.

This is an amazing feat.

Rocky has seen the rewards he deserved after the war: a big castle, a territory that fits his status, and a wife of great noble origin.

Shaking his head, he shouted: "We have twice as many people as them, follow me."

The [-] cavalry moved slowly, and their speed gradually increased until they advanced at full speed.

In just a moment of effort, the two armies have already rushed very close, and after a few breaths, the fighting will begin.

On Arthur's side, there were nearly 200 cavalrymen from Haijiang City in the center, and two Vance family cavalrymen with nearly [-] people on each side.

The whole team, like a huge triangular scissors, ruthlessly penetrated into the cavalry of the western region.

It's just that the one in front of Arthur is not the commander of this army.

Although the soldiers around Rocky were curious as to why the officer charging with his sword rushed straight towards the flank of the River Cavalry, they wisely did not raise any doubts.

The two cavalrymen slammed into each other, and the fight began.
