Game of Thrones: Attack on the North Wolf

Chapter 127 Congratulations (Six thousand chapters)
The 'Blackfish' Brynden on the waterside steps looked at Count Leo who had surrendered, and turned his head to the soldiers behind him. A group of soldiers holding ropes came out and took the Lannister family soldiers whose retreat was cut off. All disarmed and bundled.

As a nobleman, Count Leo, because of his very sensible surrender, Brynden gave him enough dignity, but he just disarmed and took him away without binding him.

When all the enemies were escorted away, Brynden took a deep look at the water gate blocked by the pile of rubble, and he felt admiration for the young King of the North.

Yes, the ambush at the exit of the water gate was also arranged by Brynden in advance with reference to Robb's opinion.

Before the war between the wolf family and the lion family begins, the layout is made in advance, and after preparing to take the route from the Iron Islands to Lannisport.Robb knew that Riverrun would face unprecedented siege pressure this time.

In his opinion, Riverrun City, which occupies a favorable location and has enough troops and food, is most likely to be the breakthrough point, which is the waterway that Brynden let Brienne escape in the original play.

Although the Lannister family in the previous life used Edmure, who was arrested at the Scarlet Wedding, to capture Riverrun.

But because of the influence of his butterfly, he couldn't rule out the possibility that Lannister could use the Watergate, so he spoke very thoroughly in the letter.

This is why Brynden is worried about Edmure and insists on guarding the western city wall himself.

Because only the western city wall can see the movement of the Tengshi River, and if you want to get to Shuimen through the rushing Tengshi River, you can only start from the upper reaches.

Perhaps in Tai Wen's plan, the guards of Riverrun who were concentrating on defending the city would not be distracted from observing the Tengshi River at all.

But on the contrary, Brynden had been keeping a close eye on the Tengshi River. When he saw those small fishing boats, he immediately handed over the western city wall, which had basically stabilized the situation, to his deputy, and led his team to ambush.

In fact, Robb was not a prophet, nor could he have predicted that Earl Piper, who was defending the city, would run away and almost lead to the complete defeat of the south wall and the fall of Riverrun.

When Brynden escorted Earl Leo and his party to the dungeon of Riverrun, the city wall on the south left was completely controlled by the guards of Riverrun.

At this moment, mountains of small corpses were piled up on the city wall. Seeing that all the soldiers who ascended first were dead, the western army that continued to attack the city was suppressed immediately.

Standing in the position of the Western Territory Army, Tywin heard the news that a cavalryman had brought the collapse of the water gate and that Count Leo was alive or dead. His pale green eyes were full of chills, and veins appeared on his forehead.

"Huh, order to withdraw troops!"

Forcibly suppressing his anger, and after taking a long mouthful, Tywin gave his order to Kaifeng.

"Withdraw troops? Lord Tywin, although the raid plan failed, it seems that as long as we work harder, Riverrun City can be captured!

We've all lost so much..."

Hearing the withdrawal of troops, Kaifeng, who had the upper hand, obviously saw his side attacking the city wall several times, and asked in a puzzled way.

"The strength of Riverrun City is around 5000, and the two walls have a total of more than [-] defenders. This means that they still have [-] unused reserves.

Today's general attack was originally intended to cover the surprise attack of Leo's troops. Since the raid plan has failed, this siege is meaningless, and if it continues, it will only cause greater losses! "

There are scouting cavalry constantly reporting the situation on the battlefield, so Tywin, who has an overview of the overall situation, knows that the raiding force failed, and they lost today's siege battle.

"This... yes, I'm going to deliver the order!"

Kaifeng heard Taiwin's analysis, and went to convey the order to withdraw troops with a solemn expression.

Looking at his leaving back, Tai Wen only felt a huge boulder falling in his heart.Ever since the Northern Army suddenly disappeared in Bay of Calim, he has been in the scheme of that wolf cub.

Not long ago, when there was news of the fall of Casterly Rock City, Tai Wen personally refuted the rumors in order to stabilize the morale of the army in the western region.

But this is only a temporary solution, not the root cause, so Tywin intends to take Riverrun City with all his strength and take the entire riverland into his pocket.When the time comes, he will be in charge of Riverrun City. Whether he is attacking the northern border or retreating to the western border, the king's territory will be able to advance and retreat freely.

Unexpectedly, Kaifeng's careful preparation for so long, coupled with the surprise attack plan he arranged, failed to take Riverrun City.

Under the current circumstances, Tywin pursed his lips lightly, thinking about how to make future plans.

Woo! ~~
A melodious horn sounded throughout the entire battlefield of Riverrun.

All the soldiers of the Western Territory Army heard the sound of the horn, and immediately put the shields in their hands on their heads, and ran for their lives in the direction of their own positions.And those western soldiers who happened to be on the siege tower or the siege ladder immediately became in a dilemma.

However, after a little hesitation, knowing that they were retreating with their backs at this time, the chance of surviving was relatively small, but their instinct still drove them to turn around and run away.

The archers defending the walls of Riverrun City would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity to directly beat the dogs in the water, constantly reaping the lives of the fleeing soldiers from the Western Region.

After a while, all the unlucky western soldiers fell under the two city walls, and most of the other western soldiers had withdrawn from the range of the archers.

oh! ! !
Seeing that under his command, Edmure successfully defended against the attack of the enemy army, he immediately raised the long sword in his hand and shouted for victory.

Driven by him, nearly [-] soldiers on the southern city wall roared in unison, and then nearly [-] soldiers on the west responded.

All kinds of miserable corpses and limbs are all over the city wall, and all the siege towers and siege ladders are abandoned under the city wall.

The wildfire on the wheeled battering ram in front of the west wall has been extinguished, and the burned wheeled battering ram is only a pile of black ash, constantly emitting black smoke.

At this time, the shouts of the victors on the city wall formed a strong contrast with the silence of countless corpses under the city wall.

When Brynden, who was in the dungeon, heard the cheers on the city wall, he knew that the army of the West had withdrawn.The guards of Riverrun City defended the city bravely, they should enjoy this victory, this credit.

But Brynden knew that Riverrun was able to defend, and he should also thank the King of the North who doesn't know where he is now.

After questioning Count Leo who had surrendered, he left Riverrun, a dark dungeon without windows and completely lit by braziers.

Just as Brynden closed the heavy iron-wrapped dungeon door, he heard the noise in the center of Riverrun's school grounds.

"You cowardly running bastard, you almost killed us all!"

"Escape? Are you blind? Can't see this arrow?
I was temporarily healed after being shot by an arrow.After dressing casually, I boarded the city wall again and continued to fight.

It just happened that the enemy retreated! "

In the center of the school grounds, Earl Tytos, who was soaked in blood, led his family's soldiers, and Earl Piper, who was also armed with his own bodyguard, had a bandage on his left arm and a broken arrowhead, was having a fierce quarrel.

The soldiers of the two families showed unkind eyes, and the center of the school field was full of tense atmosphere.

"Lord Tytos, what do you want?"

Edmure, who had enjoyed the victor's feeling on the city wall for a while, just stepped down the city wall at this moment, and saw this striking group of people, and he directly asked Earl Tytos.

"Lord Edmure, Earl Piper abandoned the defense of the city wall and fled for no reason, almost causing Riverrun to fall. It should be dealt with by military law!"

Lord Tytos turned his head to look at Edmure, loudly speaking his thoughts.

"Lord Edmure, look at the arrow on my left arm. I am receiving temporary treatment for being hit by an arrow. Once the treatment is complete, I will rush back to the city wall to fight."

When Earl Piper saw Edmure, he immediately showed his left arm, which was shot by the arrow, and said loudly with some grievances.

Edmure glanced at his blood-stained left arm, turned to Earl Tytos and said: "Lord Tytos, Earl Piper was injured and treated, and then came back to fight again, this is not an escape without reason.

By slandering his honor like this, you are undermining the dignity of our Riverrun nobles! "

"I……"

"Earl Piper, I would like to ask, did the arrow on your left arm come from below the city wall, or from the siege tower?"

Earl Tytos, who did not have any proof, was about to speak, so he listened silently outside the crowd for a while, and then carefully observed Earl Piper's wound, Bryndon squeezed into the crowd and interrupted Earl Tytos.

"Lord Brynden, where did you shoot it from? Under the city wall... right!"

Seeing Brynden squeezed over, Earl Piper saluted perfunctorily, and then replied hesitatingly.

Hearing this, Brynden turned his head to look at his wound, and said loudly in a surprised tone: "That's strange, the arrows shot under the city wall must be projectiles, so they will penetrate into the body at an oblique angle.

The arrow on your left arm is so flat, it should have come from a siege tower. "

"Yes, yes, it was shot from the siege tower. Maybe I remembered it wrong!"

Upon hearing his analysis, Earl Piper nodded quickly, expressing that he had made a mistake.

"Hey, if the arrows were shot flat from the siege tower, at such a short distance, it didn't directly penetrate your left arm, but just formed such a wound. I think that the strength of this archer in the western region should not even be able to draw a bow. open it!
Earl Piper, in my opinion, your arrow was inserted with bare hands! "

Seeing Earl Piper's performance, Brynden sneered, and directly stated his final judgment aloud.

"The wound is shallow? That may be because there is something blocking it in front!

Inserted with bare hands?Lord Brynden, do you mean to suspect me of faking my injuries? "

How could Earl Piper not understand, he was a little annoyed and shouted loudly after being tricked by Brynden
"I'm not skeptical, but sure!"

"Okay, okay! Today is our victory, we all go back to rest for a while, and we will have a celebration party in the evening, everyone have a good drink!"

Edmure seemed to have understood something, he took the opportunity to talk and talk, trying to change the subject.

"No, those who fake arrows and escape will not be punished, and those who take back the city wall in blood will not be rewarded. If we can convince everyone? How can we drink happily?"

He can give Edmure face for other things, but this kind of thing is absolutely not.Since he wanted to make a mess, Brynden simply tore his face.

"Sir Marq Piper is still in the riverlands, harassing the supply troops of the Western Territory Army everywhere. If we don't have proof, we will punish his father. I believe everyone will not be convinced, right?"

Sir Marq is Edmure's best friend, Earl Piper's eldest son and heir.Edmure directly cited his credit, trying to convince everyone.

"I... I saw Earl Piper inserting an arrow into his left arm. The arrow had originally hit one of his personal guards. The body of that personal guard is still on the city wall. You can compare the traces of the arrow .”

As soon as Edmure finished speaking, a soldier in charge of defending the southern city wall spoke hesitantly.

Because they were worried that the commander would protect his family's strength, apart from the personal guards around the commander, the guarding soldiers of Riverrun City were all broken up and reorganized from each family.

The soldier who spoke, judging from the family emblem on his body, was a soldier of the Vance family in Luxi City.As a neutral family, everyone felt that what he said was more credible.

"Lord Piper, is it true what he says?"

Upon hearing this, Edmure turned to Earl Piper and asked.

"I……"

"Oh, you let me down so much!"

Seeing him speechless, Edmure shook his head and sighed, then said loudly,

"Earl Piper of the Pink City faked his injuries, fled without reason, and took him to the dungeon to await trial.

Sir Marco was promoted to acting city lord of Pink City.All Piper family soldiers, reorganized into the army, continue to fight for the honor of the Piper family.

Earl Tytos of Raventree City fought bravely and took back the city wall, rewarding him with a hundred golden dragons.

All soldiers who participated in the battle today will be rewarded with silver stags, and their military achievements will be counted extra! "

"Lord Edmure, wise!"

"Long live the Tully family!"

Hearing Edmure's reward, all the soldiers present smiled and shouted in unison.

Of course, Earl Piper's face was livid, his eyes were rolling, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Afterwards, several soldiers came forward to escort him to the dungeon of Riverrun.

When he was locked in the noble cell of the dungeon, he happened to see Count Leo sitting quietly opposite the cell.

"From the family crest on your body... it should be the Raffles family of Golden Tooth City. If you are lucky enough to go out, can you help me send a message to Lord Tywin?"

……

Green Fork, Castle on the south bank of the Twins.

"Did you know? Not long ago, the King of the North captured Casterly Rock in the West, that stone castle that has never fallen for thousands of years."

"Of course I know that. I heard that those Yankees got rich pockets in the western region. It is said that even Tywin Lannistra's golden toilet was snatched back by them."

"Hey, Lord Walder was originally a vassal of the Tully family, why did he help the Lannister family?
If it is to help the King of the North, maybe we also have the opportunity to plunder the gold of the West! "

"Who says it's not? Out of the 4000 people who accompanied them on the expedition this time, less than 500 returned to Twin River City. Those soldiers who died couldn't even find their bodies.

Some time ago, Lord Walder once again gathered 1000 people to join the army in the Western Territory, and one of my relatives followed them to Riverrun. I don’t know how the situation is now! "

Several Frey family soldiers wearing black hoods were standing guard against the afternoon sun.

Because of the special geographical location of the Twin River City, they had never been attacked for so many years, so they were a little bored, so they got together to chat.

"Huh? What is that?"

A soldier of the Frey family inadvertently raised his head and glanced forward, then suddenly pointed forward and shouted in shock.

When the other Frey family soldiers heard his shout, they all raised their heads and looked in the direction he pointed.

I saw a huge 'H' shaped strange object moving in the direction of the Twin Rivers.

The surface of this strange object seems to be inlaid with many metals. Under the sunlight, it looks dazzling and very beautiful.

As the strange object approached, the soldiers of the Frey family could see clearly that it was a huge wooden sculpture with twin towers, which should look like the City of Twins from its appearance.

What is inlaid on this twin tower sculpture is not metal at all, but a large amount of gold and various gemstones that are tempting to commit crimes.

The huge sculpture of twin towers is tied with ropes and placed on a solid wooden platform.Fifty or sixty soldiers in front of it are pulling the rope very hard to move the twin tower sculpture forward.

Under its solid wood stand are more than a dozen round logs.Twenty or thirty soldiers are methodically placing the round logs in front of it one by one.

In addition to these people, a knight in armor is leading about [-] cavalry guards, protecting the left and right sides of the statue of the twin towers.

"Hurry up and report to Lord Walder, the army of Haijiang City has brought a sculpture outside our castle."

As two cities not far apart, the captain of the guard immediately recognized the ownership of the 'Silver Eagle with Wings Spread' flag.Then, he directed to a guard beside him.

The guard led away, and after a while, a short, fat but very strong man with a black beard followed him to the watchtower of the castle on the South Bank.

The name of this short and fat man is also Walder Frey, but there are too many Walder Freys in the Frey family. In order to distinguish him, others usually call him 'Black Walder'.

He was the second son of Ryman Frey, grandson of Stevron Frey, and great-grandson of Lord Walder Frey.

"Nearly three hundred soldiers of the Mallister family brought a strange sculpture to our Twin River City for what?
However, this kind of people can't make any waves. Pulling up the outermost oak door, I asked their purpose through the gate. "

After observing carefully for a while, Black Wald slowly came to the team in front of the castle on the south bank of the Twin River City, and ordered to the captain of the guard behind him.

"Yes!"

Ka Ka Ka!
The captain of the guard replied, then turned his head and gave his order.The outermost oak door of the castle on the South Bank was opened, and Black Wald came to the iron gate in the shape of a steel grid, waiting for the arrival of the other party.

The team from Haijiang City gradually approached the Twin River City, and the leading knight was Earl Jason.When he saw Heiwade behind the iron gate, he immediately stopped the team and drove towards Heiwade alone.

"Earl Jason! May I ask why you came to the Twin Rivers for something important?"

Of course, Heiwade knew the lord of Haijiang City who was closest to them, and he asked with a smile on his face.

"Are you... Walder?"

"Of course, our younger generation is basically Wade!"

Hearing Black Walder teasing himself, Earl Jason smiled slightly, and directly explained his purpose: "I want to meet the Marquis Walder, when he married the eighth Mrs. Frey before. I was dealing with those squids, so I didn't have time to come. Come to his wedding.

The sculpture of the Twin Rivers behind this is my gift to Lord Walder.I hope he will forgive me for not attending his wedding at that time. "

"Just for this reason? Earl Jason, you gave such a great gift?"

Hearing Earl Jason's words, Heiwade raised his brows, with a smile on his lips, completely disbelieving what he said.

After all, there were too many weddings for the Marquis of Wade. In the past few times, there were many nobles who came to the wedding, but the later, the number of nobles who came to the wedding became less and less.

Even the Frey family themselves have become accustomed to it. For this reason, Earl Jason sent congratulatory gifts to make amends, which was obviously abnormal.

"Hey, of course, but I still have some things that I need to talk to Marquis Walder in person!"

Hearing this, Jason nodded with a smile, and then said that he only wanted to discuss the matter with Marquis Walder in person.

"If it's just you, I can let you in right now. Then, I'll take you to see Marquis Walder."

As the fourth heir of the Twin River City, Black Wald is not equal to Earl Jason. Hearing what he said, Black Wald replied directly.

"Just what I want, let me in!"

Earl Jason agreed without hesitation.

When he entered the Twins, he was disarmed and searched by the guards.

After all, at this moment, the Frey family has joined the Lannister family camp, and it is considered an enemy relationship with Sea Front City, which is loyal to the Tully family.

Under the leadership of Black Walder, Earl Jason met Marquis Walder sitting on the black oak chair in the reception hall of the North Castle of the Twin Rivers.

"Master Wade, your body is still strong, and I believe it will still be the same in ten years."

When Earl Jason saw Marquis Wade, he saluted very politely and complimented him politely.

"Cough, I don't know if my body will be so strong in ten years.

However, I can be sure that it won't be long before my eighth wife will conceive me again and give birth to a son. "

Marquis Ward looked at the very polite Earl Jason, but he remembered the rude emissary last time. He coughed lightly and chatted about irrelevant topics.

"Lord Walder, I brought you a belated gift, a huge sculpture of the Twin River City, inlaid with countless gold and precious stones on the surface. It is very suitable for a big man like you!"

Earl Jason didn't want to chat with him, so he directly opened his mouth to cut into the topic.

"Oh? Then, why did Earl Jason send such an expensive gift?

Don't give shit reasons why you missed the wedding, tell your real purpose. "

Seeing that he was taking the initiative to cut into the topic, Marquis Ward also asked very directly.

"I want... Please help me introduce Tywin Lannister, we in Haijiang City want to join his command."

Hearing Marquis Wade's question, Earl Jason pondered for a moment, and revealed his true purpose.
