Game of Thrones: Attack on the North Wolf

Chapter 140 Independence (Six Thousand Chapters)
pat!

A fist-sized city wall stone fell on crushed stones of different sizes and became a part of them.

Destruction is always easier than construction!In the blink of an eye, the Lannimen tower and the city walls tens of meters around turned into piles of rubble piled up like mountains.

The power of this wildfire explosion was astonishing enough, but the actual lethality only wiped out the siege soldiers and mobs on the tower and near the mud gate.

As the commander of the vanguard, Goode rushed into the city of King's Landing after the Mud Gate was opened.

He looked back at the green flames that were still burning behind him. Although he was ambushed by the enemy, Gude knew in his heart that as long as the green flames were extinguished, King's Landing City, which had no walls to defend, would surely fall.

At this moment, there are about two to three thousand siege soldiers entering King's Landing City through the Mud Gate.He immediately raised his arms and directed the siege soldiers to continue to rush forward.

Standing in front of the siege soldiers were thousands of sallow and emaciated civilians of King's Landing City, and behind them were the guards of King's Landing City who were constantly advancing with shields and spears.

The civilians on the left and right crowded in the opposite direction for their own lives.The civilians in the center were so crowded that they couldn't even breathe, just like Jon in the Battle of Bastards in the previous life.

Huh, huh, huh!
Ah, ah!
Arrows rained down from the left and right city walls, and dozens of siege soldiers from Gude's army instantly fell to the ground with the arrows screaming.At the same time, there were almost the same number of Junlin City civilians who fell to the ground with them.

The relentless rain of arrows continued to fall from the city wall, and the civilians in King's Landing City were treated as a thick wall of flesh and blood, firmly imprisoning the siege soldiers in King's Landing City.

They were mercilessly hacked and killed by the siege soldiers, and shot and killed wantonly by the archers on the walls of King's Landing.It is true that people are like ants, and life is like a mustard.

On the city wall, Joffrey watched the slaughter under the city wall with a rosy face, and the tyranny in his heart seemed to be satisfied.

James turned his head a little unbearably, and said to Cersei, who was looking down with an indifferent expression: "These are our people, let me lead people to kill these enemies who have entered the city!"

"The people? No, they are a group of mobs trying to rebel. They are our enemies. Huh, they all have to die!

Now, the enemy is slaughtering the enemy, our archers just need to keep shooting them dead.

You don't need to take risks! "

Cersei sneered, turned her head to stare at James with cold eyes, and answered.

Varys also showed a look of unbearable expression, but he said to James: "Master Prime Minister, Your Majesty the Queen Mother is right. If we change positions with the enemy, they will not be merciful to us!"

James wanted to say something more, but in the end he shook his head and didn't speak. Instead of watching the massacre under the city wall, he turned around and came to the other side of the city wall to observe the movement of Stannis' army outside the city.

Outside the Mud Gate, the [-]-strong army led by Roland, together with the [-]-gude vanguard, is using helmets, boots, shields and other items that can hold water, constantly transporting water from the nearby Blackwater River Extinguishing.

The mud gate tower and tens of meters of the city wall have collapsed, and they don't need to climb the city wall anymore.All you need to do is to extinguish this emerald green flame, and you can easily invade King's Landing City.

The fire extinguishing progressed very smoothly. For some reason, the archers on the city wall did not shoot arrows to stop their fire extinguishing action.

Behind the [-] siege soldiers, Stannis' central army was quietly waiting in formation.

Due to the terrain restrictions of Mud Gate, his 3000-strong central army could not step forward to help put out the fire, and could only wait patiently for the green flame to go out before directly entering the city.

Looking at the mud door that collapsed in front of him, Stannis' old face was full of puzzlement.

Before the battle began, he received a report from scouting cavalry.The focus of common attention by several forces, Tywin Lannister's [-] troops have not moved at Harrenhal, and it is absolutely impossible to rush to the battlefield of King's Landing.

Therefore, for the Lannister brothers and sisters, he really didn't understand this method of self-destructing the city wall.

On the tower of Xiongshimen, hundreds of gold robes are carefully looking at the number of enemy troops below the city wall, which number around [-].Since the opponent has no plans to attack the city, they will not take the initiative to provoke them.

It's just that the series of explosions that came from the direction of Mud Gate just now made them uneasy, and they were talking about the situation there in a low voice with fear.

Rumble boom!

"what is that?"

A golden robe's ears trembled slightly, and he vaguely heard something. He looked up at the golden road, and immediately roared loudly.

The many golden robes on the tower subconsciously looked up when they heard his shout.

I saw that on the golden road, a large black spot was approaching rapidly, and behind them, a storm-like smoke was rising.

As the black spot got closer, the bright red Angry Lion flag was fluttering in the wind, declaring its existence in a high-profile manner.

"Reinforcement, reinforcement! Brothers, take up arms and kill these sons of bitches!"

When the captain of the watchtower guard saw the flag, he reacted immediately. While shouting, he picked up the bow and arrow in his hand and shot at the enemy below.

The other golden robes instantly understood what the captain meant, picked up their bows and arrows, and threw stones down.Of course, whether these attacks are effective is one aspect, they must at least act like an attack.

Of course, the thousands of Stannis soldiers below the Lion's Gate also reacted.When they saw such a large number of enemy cavalry, the originally neat formation collapsed, and everyone hurriedly ran towards the Mud Gate.

Rumble!
Adam led [-] western light cavalry to chase the enemies ahead.For nearly two months, the cavalry unit he led ran around, but nothing was achieved.

After receiving the order from Lord Tywin, Adam's troops, who had already arrived at the predetermined location on the Golden Avenue, waited for more than ten days because the time was not up.At this moment, there was a surge of anger in my heart, and I was just about to vent it.

How could human legs run faster than horse legs? The thousands of Stannis soldiers who fled, let alone the Mud Gate, had already been caught up by the Lannister cavalry before they reached the middle of the Lion Gate and the King's Gate. .

Tear off, bark!
On the battlefield, blood and heads immediately flew together, and there was no suspense at all for the [-] light cavalry to deal with the [-] fleeing infantry.After the light cavalry charged once, there was no enemy standing on the ground.

There may be many smart veterans hiding in the pile of corpses and pretending to be dead, but there is no difference, because the heavy cavalry like tanks in the rear directly trampled over the corpses on the ground.

The Stannis soldiers at Kingsgate had fled towards the army at Mudgate when they saw the Lionsgate allies fleeing.

The infantry commander who had escaped from the King's Gate crawled up to Stannis with a dignified face, and reported, "Your Majesty! Enemy cavalry are attacking from the Golden Road. The number is at least seven or eight thousand!"

"What are you panicking about? Take your people to the rear of the team and re-arrange. Don't disturb the current formation."

Stannis scolded the infantry commander, then turned to the orderly next to him and said,
"I ordered the [-] cavalry to be commanded by me, and the remaining [-] infantry should move the shield soldiers and pikemen in the front rows to the rear. The others turned around to meet the enemy in the same formation.

In the end, Roland's 1 people were ready to support at any time. "

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The infantry commander and the herald saluted in unison and answered, then quickly went to their own tasks.

Formation changes in this era are a problem. Stannis's formation of more than 3000 people, just a slight change, will cause waves of commotion and chaos.

Fortunately, he was in Bitter Bridge some time ago, and he had been training the entire army, and the distance from the Lion Gate to the Mud Gate was enough for them to regain their formation.

Otherwise, the western cavalry may have rushed forward, and their formation has not yet been rearranged.

The [-] Western Light Cavalry who were at the forefront slowed down after passing the King's Gate.And under Adam's command, it was divided into left and right wings, and the middle position was given to four thousand heavy cavalry.

Rumble!
The heavy cavalry of the western region, both men and horses in full body armor, began to speed up their horses after reaching the charging range. The heavy hooves of the horses were like rolling thunder, which made Stannis's [-] infantry tremble with fear.

In fact, not only the [-] infantrymen who faced the cavalry were frightened, but also the [-] siege soldiers at Lannimen who were putting out the fire. Since they could only hear the sound of horseshoes and could not see the specific situation, they were a little absent-minded about putting out the fire.

"What are you looking at? The vanguard troops quickly put out the fire!"

After receiving the order from Stannis, Roland gathered 1 people under his command.Seeing that the 6000 people in the vanguard began to move slowly, he immediately yelled loudly.

Whoo, whoo, whoo!
As soon as Roland finished speaking, more than a dozen barrels of burning asphalt fell outside the Mud Gate, among the densely packed siege soldiers.

Ah!
The asphalt barrel exploded, and some unlucky siege soldiers were turned into black sugar figures by the hot asphalt on the spot.The other siege soldiers next to them were splashed with lumps of asphalt on their bodies and faces, and they screamed heart-piercingly.

Woo! ! !
A deep and thick horn sounded, and at some time, fifty oar warships quietly appeared on the Blackwater River.

At the forefront of these warships was an unusually large warship. This was the flagship of the Royal Fleet belonging to King's Landing, King Robert's Hammer.

This giant warship has four hundred oars, and its unusually wide hull is loaded with catapults, ballistas and other siege weapons. Just like its name, it is as powerful as King Robert when he hammered Prince Rhaegar to death. like a hammer.

"Enemy attack, enemy warships appear on the Blackwater River!

The vanguard continued to put out the fire, and the four thousand-man brigade near the Heishui River carried small paddle boats into the water, went to pick up the boat and seize the boat. "

After being attacked suddenly, Roland did not panic. After scanning the warships on the Blackwater River, he calmly gave orders to the messengers around him.

A calm commander issued a clear order, and the [-] siege soldiers outside the Mud Gate immediately took action separately,
Nearly 20 siege soldiers, divided into groups of [-], raised small oar warships the size of ordinary ironman longships from behind the formation, and rushed towards the nearby Blackwater River.

These two hundred small galleys were originally built by Stannis to capture the fleet of King's Landing before the siege began.Right now it's just as good as it gets.

As soon as the two hundred small paddling warships entered the river, ten men paddled vigorously, and ten men drew their bows to shoot at the fleet of King's Landing City.For a while, fierce fighting began on the Heishui River.

Whoa, whoa!
Bang, bang, bang!
After the heavy cavalry of the western region charged fully, they finally came into contact with the Stannis infantry who stood at the front with shields and guns.

A heavy cavalry from the Western Region, including men and horses, was directly pierced by steel spears like a forest.But they and the corpses of the horses still slammed into the army formation with huge charging momentum.

But the gaps that the corpses of the heavy cavalrymen of the western region could cause were very small. When there was a gap in the Stannis infantry formation, the soldiers in the back row immediately filled it with shields and guns.

One row, two rows, three rows...

The continuous Western heavy cavalry, like a violent wave, rushed towards Stannis' army in waves.

Gaps kept appearing in the front of Stannis's formation, and the infantry in the rear were slower and slower to fill them.

Finally, the Stannis infantry formation was torn apart by the heavy cavalry of the Western Region, and the heavy cavalry like human tanks entered the formation, which immediately turned Stannis' formation into chaos.

Da da da!
Just as the heavy cavalry of the western region tore a hole in their own army formation, the [-] cavalry under the command of Stannis himself started from the rear of the formation, bypassed the right side of the formation, and appeared on the left side of the heavy cavalry of the western region.

Huh, huh, huh!
Stannis' [-] cavalry raised their hands and attacked with a rain of arrows. Unlike the projectiles that the heavy cavalry could basically ignore, their short-range flat shots were powerful enough to pierce the armor of the heavy cavalry.

A large number of heavy cavalry from the western region fell to the ground, and the ownerless armored horses fled in fright. The heavy cavalry from the western region, which should have pierced through the army formation, was suddenly interrupted by Stannis.

Da da da!
After two rounds of arrow rain attacks, the Stannis cavalry wanted to continue shooting for the third round, but the [-] light cavalry on the left wing of the western border were not wooden, and charged forward directly to fight with the Stannis cavalry.

The battlefield was suddenly chaotic. The rhythm of the heavy cavalry in the western region was broken, and the gap that was torn by them was barely filled.The [-] cavalry from both sides on the right side of the formation fought into a group.

However, there were still [-] light cavalry on the right wing led by Adam in the western border. They were unstoppable, they went around to the left side of Stannis's army, and charged.

However, Roland, who had been carefully observing the situation, led [-] siege soldiers in advance to block the left side of the army formation, and firmly blocked Adam's right wing of [-] light cavalry from the army formation.

On the wall of King's Landing, James looked at the deadlocked cavalry in the distance, and then at the Blackwater River, where his fleet was engaged in a brutal boarding battle. He turned anxiously and said to Cersei, "Cersei, outside! The situation is unfavorable, let me fight!"

"No, Jaime, you are not the Kingsguard, but the Hand of the King, heir to Casterly Rock in the West.

Don't always put yourself in danger, when did you see your father personally lead the charge? "

Cersei shook her head when she heard the words, she certainly didn't want to put her lover in danger.Therefore, James' proposal was rejected with high-sounding reasons.

"It's better for me to be in danger than for you to be in danger. You know, I love you more than anything!"

When James heard Cersei's words, he looked around, walked up to Cersei, and whispered with a determined face.

When Cersei heard James' confession, her heart suddenly felt warm. She stroked the back of James' hand quietly, and said softly: "We have done what father said. Don't worry, he will never hit someone who is not sure." battle!"

woo woo woo woo!
Rumble!
As soon as Cersei finished speaking, a small horn sounded, and today's bustling King's Landing City welcomed a new guest again.

Tear!

Stannis slashed across the chest of a Westland light cavalryman, cutting him off his horse.He heard the sound of the horn again, and he looked up in the direction of the sound of the horn, but the sense of uneasiness in his heart was increasing.

It will definitely not be my reinforcements, so who will come?Did Tywin really fly over from Harrenhal?
Stannis, who is very self-aware, knows that he has no friends at all, and he keeps guessing all kinds of possibilities in his heart.

Da da da!
A group of tens of thousands of cavalry, dressed in shining ornate armor and armed with weapons, rushed straight from Rose Avenue to the Mud Gate battlefield.The golden rose banners they held looked extremely luxurious under the sunlight.

"Stannis! I've come for you myself! All forces charge!"

Wearing gorgeous armor engraved with countless flower emblems, the handsome face of the 'Knight of Flowers' Loras, whose handsome face was distorted by anger, raised the long sword in his right hand and gave an order to charge the Highgarden cavalry behind him.

Stannis gritted his teeth at the sight of the banner of the Rose of Highgarden, and veins appeared on his brow.From this moment he knew that he had lost this war!

"Your Majesty, it's the enemy's reinforcements. Let's retreat!"

The personal guard who had been guarding Stannis all the time, saw the tens of thousands of Highgarden cavalry, and immediately suggested to him.

"Retreat? Where else can we retreat? Come on, follow me into King's Landing City!"

Stannis looked around the battlefield and found that the back road was completely cut off.In the end, he set his eyes on the green flame that had not been extinguished, and said to his personal guard.

"But, Your Majesty, the wildfire is still burning over there. It's impossible to get through!

Um?Your Majesty, on the other side of the Blackwater River, that is..."

Hearing this, the personal guard turned his head and glanced at the pile of rubble on the tower of Lannimen. While he was replying, he suddenly found another change on the Heishui River in his field of vision.

When Stannis heard the guard's words, he subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the Blackwater River.

The King's Landing fleet was already small in number, and they were concentrating on fighting the Stannis soldiers who climbed onto the warship like ants and engaged in a board battle.

A fleet flying the banner of the Flaming Stag quietly appeared like a ghost and attacked from the rear.Although the number of warships in this fleet is less than forty, it is obvious that the naval combat capability is much stronger than that of the King's Landing City fleet.

Buckets of asphalt, ballista shots, gang-to-board battles.

Under their skilful serial attacks, the warships of the King's Landing fleet continued to blaze.The largest flagship among them, just like its name, rushed towards the wharf of Mud Gate angrily.

"Your Majesty, it's our Royal Fleet. They haven't all been wiped out. Quickly, retreat to the pier!"

Confirming that it was our own reinforcements, the guard immediately shouted at Stannis.

But although Stannis knew that he had lost the battle, the Iron Throne he dreamed of was so close to him that he was not only lost in confusion.

Bang, bang, bang!
As Stannis was struggling whether to retreat, the energetic Highgarden cavalry charged very vigorously at the infantry unit Roland had commanded just now on the left side of Stannis' army formation.

With no rules at all, the High Court cavalry relied on their well-equipped and large numbers of people, and they were several times the number of Roland's troops, drowning them.

However, as early as the Highgarden cavalry appeared, Roland quietly left the left army formation, requisitioned a cavalry horse, and headed towards Stannis' position.

"Your Majesty, let's go! Come back to Dragonstone."

When Roland came to Stannis, seeing him standing there in a daze, he immediately said anxiously.

"Back to Dragonstone Island? The [-] troops are gone, why should I go back to Dragonstone Island?"

Stannis smiled wryly and shook his head. The anticipation of the Iron Throne that was within easy reach before the war, and the sense of loss of losing everything at this moment made him feel that everything after that was meaningless.

"Didn't you not have the [-] troops back then? Queen Selyse and Princess Shirin are still waiting for you. And we soldiers who are still loyal to you!"

When Roland heard this, he immediately racked his brains to think of various excuses, and continued to persuade Stannis to retreat.

It may be that something in his words moved Stannis. Stannis looked around the chaotic battlefield and ordered Roland and his personal guards: "Let the army that surrendered from Bitterbridge come to the rear, and the army from Dragonstone will follow. I retreat."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

After Roland received the order, he began to command the rear of the army formation, the best-preserved troops to retreat and cover.

The more than 2 people at the Mud Gate were not so easy to kill. Even though the army formation had basically collapsed, with this large number of meat shields against the Western Cavalry and Highgarden cavalry, it was enough for Stannis to evacuate.

In the end, nearly forty warships led by Davos evacuated with Stannis and three thousand soldiers loyal to him from Dragonstone Island.

The remaining more than 2 soldiers from Stormwind and Frontier who belonged to Bitter Bridge were ruthlessly abandoned by them.

After Stannis evacuated through the Blackwater River, the remaining 2 soldiers immediately surrendered when they saw this situation.

clang!
Loras looked at the dozens of burning warships on the Blackwater River, and the fleet gradually sailing to the Blackwater Bay, and ruthlessly threw the long sword in his hand to the ground.

He originally thought that he could personally kill Stannis this time and avenge Renly I, but he didn't expect that he would still escape in such a deadlock.

"Hey, throw away your weapons, are you ready to surrender?"

Adam, who was covered in blood, rode his horse to Loras's side, and sarcastically said.

"I'm in a very bad mood right now, don't mess with me!"

Loras replied bluntly without turning his head.

"I provoke you? You should have attacked at the same time when you heard the explosion. Why did you delay for so long?

Do you know how many brothers I have died this time because of your delay? "

When Adam heard this, he immediately roared angrily at Loras.

"Please watch your tone. We are guests invited by Tywin Lannister. The reason why we will help you is because he agreed to Renly II's request for independence.

And, how many of you are there?We dispatched a total of [-] Gaoting cavalry this time. With so many people just hiding and forming a team, it will be a big trouble.

Finally, how did we procrastinate?Didn't he arrive just in time to defeat Stannis' army? "

When Loras heard Adam's roar, he turned his head and answered him with a haughty face.

"Very well! Give my regards, King of the Reach, His Majesty Renly II!"
