Chapter 160 Melee (6400 chapters)

Tear!

In the meeting hall of the Prime Minister's Tower, a Myr carpet embroidered with crowned stags and angry lions standing opposite each other suddenly protruded a large piece irregularly, and then a long sword pierced through the carpet and cut it left and right.

Bang!

After a gap big enough for adults was cut in the Myr carpet, a long sword was thrown from the secret passage under the carpet and hit the ground.

Since both Tywin and James had left King's Landing, the Prime Minister's Tower was not inhabited.Therefore, the sound did not attract anyone's attention.

A four-year-old girl, tearful and struggling to hold back her crying, was lifted up by a big rough hand and struggled to crawl out of the secret passage.

Afterwards, Sandor, who had a bandage tied around his chest, followed her and crawled out of the secret passage.After coming out, he immediately turned around and stretched out his hand to pull out a seven-year-old boy and nine-year-old boy, the oldest of the three children, from the secret passage.

Sandor, who escaped from the secret passage of the black prison, planned to escape from the Red Castle through the secret passage of the prime minister's tower bedroom, taking advantage of the fact that the guards of the Red Castle would not be able to find out the situation of the black prison for a while.

When Robb ran away with Sansa, Sandor, who was thinking about Sansa, followed them quietly.

After they left, Sandor helped to cover up the traces near the prime minister's secret road, so these two secret roads have not been discovered by the golden robes.

After picking up the long sword on the ground and inserting it back into the scabbard, Sandor fixed the little girl on his chest again with cloth strips.Then he took the two little boys towards the Prime Minister's Tower bedroom.

The little girl was lying on Sandor's chest with tears in her eyes, and the other two little boys followed him closely, obviously they all regarded Sandor as their own support.

Yesterday, when Joffrey gave Marin the order to arrest the relatives of the unfortunate man, Sandor, who had been working hard and enduring all this time, finally made up his mind to get away from Joffrey, who was as shit as his brother The Mountain.

Maybe it's because of the guilt for helping others, maybe it's because they want to redeem themselves, or maybe they want to find a reason to see Sansa.

He finally decided to save the family who were about to be harmed by Joffrey and take them to the north.

Therefore, when Marin went to the flea nest to catch him, he volunteered to follow him.Then he waited for an opportunity to have a secret talk with the old man, telling her that he would save their family from escaping and head to the north together.

Without any hesitation, the old man trusted Sandor directly.Because...their family no longer has any value that Sandor bothered to deceive.

Because the two boys moved slowly, Sandor and his party took a long time to reach the exit between the north gate of the Red Castle and the north tower from the narrow and long secret passage of the Prime Minister's Tower bedroom.

Outside the exit house, there is a carriage prepared by Sandor in advance.After he put the children into the cargo compartment of the carriage, he drove towards the giant dragon gate in the northwest corner of King's Landing City.

Before leaving, Sandor turned his head and looked at the still calm Red Castle, knowing that the black prison had not been discovered yet.

All the way to the Dragon Gate in the northwest of King's Landing City, it has been more than two months since the last Stannis siege.Junlin City has long been open to traffic normally, but there will be routine inspections by gold robes.

With his highly recognizable face, Sandor casually lied in the name of Joffrey, and the gold robes hurriedly let him pass directly, even the carriage he was driving didn't have the guts to check.

clang, clang, clang!
Half a day after Sandor's carriage left, the loud and rapid alarm bell sounded in the Red Castle.The golden robes at all the gates of King's Landing City heard the alarm bell and immediately closed the gates to prevent anyone from entering or leaving.

pat!

In the dark prison cell, Lancel used the scabbard to dig through a large pile of ashes, and an oval-shaped ruby ​​with a rich and pure color appeared in front of his eyes.

"My lord, this is the ruby ​​in Joffrey's crown!"

Twisting the ruby ​​out of the ashes and spreading it out in the palm of his hand, Lancel turned and said to Cersei behind him who was frosty.

"Impossible, it can't be Little Joe! Marin Tran was shot from behind. Where's the hound? Where is that damned hound?"

Cersei slapped the ruby ​​in Lancel's hand away, and roared firmly.

"Your Majesty, the Hound left the Dragon Gate in a carriage, and it has probably been nearly half a day."

Varys, who just came in from outside the cell, immediately answered when he heard Cersei's roar.

"A carriage? Little Joe must be in that carriage. The bloody Hound has kidnapped him! That must be it!"

Hearing what Varys said, Cersei's eyes lit up immediately, and she spoke firmly.

"Sir Mandon Moore, bring a hundred... no, three hundred gold robes and pursue them from the dragon gate immediately. You must bring your king back safely!"

"Obey, Your Majesty the Empress Dowager!"

Hearing Cersei's order, a Kingsguard with light gray eyes and a lifeless face who stood quietly by the side saluted and replied, then immediately turned around and walked out of the cell to pick someone to perform the task.

Cersei didn't send Lancel because she knew Lancel was an idiot.And Jaime had judged all the Kingsguard before when he was lingering with her.

He said Mandon Moore had never had a friend but a sword, never had a life but a duty.It can be said that he is the most responsible and dangerous sworn brother besides Jaime himself in the Kingsguard.

"Go through the dragon gate... this mad dog who devours the Lord must want to go to the north. Varys, send a message to Harrenhal. Tell them to close the king's road and prevent anyone from going north."

"Yes! I'll do it now."

After giving the order, Cersei immediately kicked everyone out of the cell.A person stared blankly at the pile of ashes on the stone execution frame, and quietly shed two lines of tears.

……

Harrenhal, Hall of the Hundred Hearths.

The Hall of Hundred Hearths, like the other rooms in Harrenhal, was extraordinarily large and majestic.At the time it was claimed to hold a hundred furnaces, or an entire army.

At this moment, the stretcher carrying James was placed on the smooth floor.Bachelor Clayren of Casterly Rock City, who had been with Tywin since the beginning of the war, checked his condition and gave him treatment.

After replacing the blood-soaked gauze covering James' right face with medicine, Kleilan stood up and said to Tywin with a concerned face: "Lord Tywin, I have changed the medicine for Sir James again. But, He has started to have a fever now.

The treatment environment in Harrenhal is too poor. Since this place is only two or three days away from King's Landing, I suggest sending him back to King's Landing for treatment by Grand Maester Pacelle. "

"Well, Leo, you will take 500 people to escort James and Crayron back to King's Landing together. By the way, where is Lins Layton?"

Hearing Maester Kleilan's suggestion, Tywin immediately gave the order to Earl Leo, saying that in the end, he suddenly realized that he hadn't seen Earl Lince of Deep Cavern City.

"Lord Tywin, Lynce Leighton has betrayed the Lannister family. At that time, Sir James had an accident in Shili City. After I ordered the massacre of the city, I quickly took him for treatment.

Unexpectedly, Lynce Layton gathered the remnants of his family to rescue nearly a thousand enemy prisoners, snatched the horses and headed towards Riverrun.

Except for their more than 1000 people, all other enemies have been wiped out, and there are only ruins left in Shili City! "

Upon hearing this, Count Leo immediately told what happened after James was injured in Stone Fence City.

"Hmph, the Layton family has always liked to marry the nobles of the Riverlands. During the discussion of the exchange of prisoners, my spies noticed that he went to Patrick Mallister's room several times.

When I'm free, it's time for Deep Cave City to change its owner. "

Leo dared not delay, as James' condition was showing signs of febrile aggravation.Let Maester Clayren and James ride in the same carriage, and lead [-] cavalry towards King's Landing.

Standing in the tower of Hundred Hearth Hall and watching them go away, Tai Wen thought for a while, and asked the guards to call up the nobles who were staying at Harrenhal.

"Lord Tywin!"

Earl Swyfer of Corn City, Earl Saliott of Silver Mountain City, and Magic Mountain entered the Hundred Hearth Hall together, saluting and greeting Tai Wen.

"Shallot, where is Edmure's army now?"

Tywin responded to them with a slight nod, and directly entered the topic without too many pleasantries, and asked Earl Shallot, who was in charge of statistical intelligence recently.

"They were wandering around Acorn Hall, but after we sent them the news that Stonewall City was besieged two days ago, he led the army to support Stonewall City.

Uh, based on their marching time, they should be near Shili City by now. "

Hearing Tywin asking himself, Earl Shallot immediately took a step forward and replied respectfully.

"A few days ago, I ordered Kefeng to stay at the crossroads with [-] troops and lead [-] troops to march west from the Hejian Avenue. Where are they now?"

"Lord Kevan should have passed the Kneeling Stack and headed towards Riverrun City."

"Okay, let them make a big noise when they pass near Riverrun, and make sure the brood of trout see it."

Hearing Earl Shariott's report, Tywin nodded and gave instructions, then continued.

"Davon sent a message from Casterly Rock a few days ago that Greyjoy's fleet suddenly withdrew after successfully landing. It is possible that they wanted to bypass the sea and directly attack King's Landing.

And Robb Stark led tens of thousands of northern troops stationed in front of the Golden Tooth City, and there was no attack in the past ten days.I don't know if they really want to attack the city or deliberately confuse us.

But it doesn't matter anymore, I want to take this opportunity to take down Riverrun, which is empty inside! "

"Lord Tywin, I am willing to lead the vanguard to attack Riverrun!"

As soon as Tywin finished speaking, Earl Swyfer, who was older than Tywin, immediately spoke.

The always shrewd and tactful Earl Swyfer knew that Tywin had withdrawn after he suffered a loss in the last attack on Riverrun.This time, he must be sure of capturing Riverrun City, so he took the initiative to invite Ying, wanting to take this opportunity to show more.

"Well, Swyfer led [-] soldiers as the vanguard to station at Riverrun. Shallot, you lead [-] soldiers to wait at the Inn of the Knees. I will come to join you when the time comes!

As for Clegane, Harrenhal is still in your charge, catch all the Brotherhood Without Banners rats as soon as possible! "

"Yes!"

After Tywin gave the order in a calm tone, the other three immediately stood up straight and responded in unison.

……

Crunch, crunch!
The carriage driven by Sandor was driving fast on the King's Road, and they had passed the Sow's Corner just now, and they escaped from the king's territory.

After a whole day of high-intensity driving, the originally sturdy carriage made an unpleasant noise.If this state continues, the carriage will inevitably fall apart.

Sandor didn't want to hurry, but he knew that the Red Castle would definitely send a golden robe to pursue him.

Therefore, he planned to go through Harrenhal controlled by Lannister according to the original plan, and then change to other routes and slowly head towards the north.

Da da da!
Sandor drove the carriage forward again for a little while, when he passed the section of the King's Road close to the southeast of God's Eye Lake, a sound of horseshoes came from behind him.

Damn it, they caught up with them!
Hearing the sound of horseshoes behind him, Sandor turned his head and saw all kinds of stag and lion confrontation flags that were gradually approaching them, as well as a large piece of golden robe fluttering in the wind.

Seeing the target ahead, Ser Mandon led three hundred gold cloaks and whipped the horses vigorously, trying to make them run faster.

The carriage can't outrun them, so how about driving into the lake?No, I cannot take care of all three children.

Looking at the God's Eye Lake on the left, Sandor, who still refused to give up, thought about various ways to escape in his mind.

Da da da!
At this moment, there were more horseshoes in front of him than behind him.I saw a group of cavalry holding red angry lion banners galloping towards them.

Sierra! ~~
Sandor saw a larger number of Lannister family cavalry directly in front of him, he directly pulled the reins in his hand, and parked the carriage in the middle of the King's Road.

Clang!
Drawing the sword from his side, Sandor jumped straight out of the carriage.He took a few steps to the back of the carriage and took a defensive posture. He spat on the ground and said, "Bah! Go to him, King, go to him, Lannister!"

clang!
While Sir Mandon rode his horse close to Sandor's right side, the long sword in his right hand slashed at his head with the power of the horse's charge.But his slash was directly blocked by Sandor, who had been prepared for a long time.

Sandor, whose hands were numb from the force, had no time to rest.The man in the golden robe on the left side of his body has already stabbed with a spear.

clang, clang, clang!
In order to avoid hitting the carriage carrying King Joffrey, these gold robes attacked Sandor with spears while the steers flashed to the left and right of him.

At the very beginning, his swordsmanship was very good, and Sandor, who was also very experienced in combat, was able to resist.But there were too many golden robes, bloodstains began to appear on Sandor's body,
One, two, three...

In the gap of the carriage compartment, the nine-year-old boy was trying to observe the situation outside.

In the eyes of the boy, that incomparably stalwart figure stood like a pillar in the water, standing in the fierce torrent.

Bang!
But when the manpower was finally exhausted, Sandor, who was covered in blood, finally couldn't hold on, and fell heavily to the ground.

Right in front of the carriage, Sir Mandon frowned and looked at the Lannister cavalry who were getting closer but showed no intention of slowing down. He waved and shouted, "Stop! King Joffrey is in the carriage behind!"

Huh, huh, huh!
Ah!
It was only when they were close enough that Ser Mandon saw the hundreds of Lannister horsemen guarding a carriage.Behind them, a large group of Bannerless Cavalry wearing worn-out armor was chasing after them.

"There are enemies, quickly line up the spear formation and protect the carriage!"

To be against House Lannister is, of course, to be against his loyal King Joffrey.Without any hesitation, Sir Mandon got off his horse and called the gold robes to dismount.

Count Leo, who was ambushed by the Brotherhood Without Banners just a day after he set off from Harrenhal, of course also saw this group of golden-cloaked allies.

He glanced at the enemy cavalry who were biting them tightly behind him, and immediately ordered: "The last ten teams stay to block the enemy, and the others protect the carriage and move closer to the front reinforcements."

The Lannister cavalry brought by Earl Leo were all elite cavalry arranged by Tywin.

After hearing the order, the last hundreds of Lannister cavalry resolutely stopped running away, and turned around to charge towards the enemy ten times larger than them.

But their number is too small for the almost fifteen hundred Brotherhood Without Banners cavalry.In less than ten minutes, the Lannister cavalry were drowned in their crowd.

However, the precious time they gained allowed Count Leo to escort the carriage smoothly and circle around behind the spear formation of the golden robes.

Originally, Earl Leo had 350 Lannister cavalry, but he lost nearly [-] of them in this pursuit. Adding on the hundreds he lost just now, he now only has [-] Lannister cavalry left.

Since they had to escort the carriage, it was impossible to escape the pursuit of the enemy cavalry.But now that they joined the three hundred golden robes lined up with spears, at least they have the power to fight.

"Gulu! Bailey, I have a hunch this time it's a big fish, I'm not wrong!"

Soros, who was riding on a war horse, took advantage of Bailey's leisure to rearrange the cavalry formation.He opened the wine bag on his body and took a sip before speaking.

"Everything is guided by my lord. It's none of your business!"

Bailey, whose face was covered with burst veins, replied with a devout expression.

"Okay! It's not far from Harrenhal, let's deal with the enemies first and then chat, okay?
Soros, please start praying! "

Listening to the chat between Soros and Bailey, Brienne rolled her eyes and reminded them to focus on the enemy in front of them.

In the past few months, the Brotherhood Without Banners has developed very rapidly in the Riverland.And Brienne, who has been watching them silently, has a deep understanding of the horror of religious brainwashing.

The Brotherhood Without Banners does not reject anyone, whether they are civilians, deserters, or even vicious robbers.Of course, the premise is to believe in the Lord of Light.

But whether it is a person who truly believes in the beginning, or a person who falsely believes in order to temporarily shelter.After praying with everyone every day and listening to Soros explaining the doctrines and dogmas, they gradually became true believers.

There is a very important reason for this, the Lord of Light is different from the Seven Gods of Westeros.In recent months, He has frequently performed various miracles through Soros.

such as……

"...The night is dark, and everything is sinister!"

"Long night is dark, everywhere is sinister!"

After Soros finished his prayer, all members of the Brotherhood Without Banners, except Brienne, chanted reverently.

Ho, ho, ho!
Except for Brienne, the long swords in the hands of everyone in the Brotherhood Without Banners ignited raging fire, and this large piece of fiery sword looked very visually impactful.

"The Lord of Light blesses us, we will surely win. All charge!"

Bailey pointed forward with the flaming long sword in his right hand, and all the cavalrymen of the Brotherhood Without Banners charged towards the enemy directly in front with frenzied expressions on their faces.

Compared to the fanaticism of the Brotherhood Without Banners, the gold robes and Lannister cavalry opposite them, as well as Sir Mandon and Earl Leo, all looked astonished and flustered.

After all, human beings are always full of fear of the unknown!

"Don't be afraid, these guys have wildfire painted on their swords, specially designed to scare people!"

Seeing that the morale of his side had dropped significantly, Count Leo immediately cheered up his soldiers loudly.

Some of the gold robes and Lannister cavalry reluctantly agreed with his statement, while others were dubious.

Under such circumstances, the soldiers from both sides collided fiercely.

Oh!

Bang, bang, bang!
The front-row cavalry of the Brotherhood Without Banners, fearless of death, directly smashed into the forest-like spear formation with their bodies, and were immediately smashed into rags.

But there were still many Brotherhood Without Banners cavalry who broke through the spear formation of the golden robes and fought with the Lannister cavalry behind them.

The morale of both sides is very obvious at this moment.These fanatical Brotherhood Without Banners cavalry rushed forward like a wave, tearing the formation of the golden robes from a straight line into a wavy line.

In the end, Bailey, Brienne, Soros and the others poked a big hole out of the enemy formation like sharp spear points.Let the defensive formation of the golden robes and Lannister cavalry collapse instantly.

The troops of both sides on the battlefield immediately intertwined with each other, turning from a positional battle into a big melee.

clang!
On the chaotic battlefield, Bailey and Sir Mandon bumped into each other by chance.After the two fought each other, they immediately recognized each other.

Ser Mandon had never fought Beric, but he had seen Beric's swordplay at the Prime Minister's Tournament celebrating Eddard.Sir Mandon, who thought the opponent's swordsmanship was only second-rate, immediately attacked the enemy leader with his sword.

clang, clang, clang!
In the early stages of their sword fight, Sir Mandon discovered that Beric's hands were extremely powerful, but his opponent's level of swordsmanship was extremely strong.
Indeed, as he expected, he was not at the same level as himself.

Therefore, relying on his own swordsmanship, Sir Mandon stopped fighting with Bailey.Instead, he took advantage of Yudou's opportunity to strike Bailey with a sword from time to time, adding a bloodstain to his body.

In general sword fights, the outcome is determined within a short period of time.because.Normal people's energy and physical strength are at their peak in the initial stage.

But as the sword fight between Sir Mandon and Bailey continued, Sir Mandon gradually became exhausted, while Bailey was still alive and well, as if he didn't know he was tired at all.

Oh!

While dodging Bailey's attack, Sir Mandon staggered and failed to stabilize himself in time.And Bailey, who had been waiting for the opportunity, instantly pierced Sir Mandon's right eye with the long sword in his hand like a poisonous snake.

The battle between the two of them was explained very aptly.

I can make countless mistakes, but you can't make one mistake!

The battle between the two of Berry was the last to end.After half of the golden robes and Lannister cavalry died, Earl Leo saw that the situation was over, so he took the lead in surrendering.

Bailey took out a tube of potion prepared by Qeben from his arms, and poured it directly with his head raised.He walked towards the last two carriages.

The first carriage opened, and he saw the unconscious James and the nervous Maester Clayren inside.

"James Lannister, very good! Soros, let someone take care of this carriage!"

Recognizing the person in the carriage at a glance, Bailey immediately told Thoros to keep an eye on the carriage.

"Well……"

As soon as Bailey came to the second carriage, he saw Sandor who was covered in blood and was struggling to get up.

"Look who this is? A hunting dog riddled with countless crimes. It just so happens that today I will give you a just trial on behalf of the Lord of Light!"

Of course, Bailey recognized the highly recognizable Sandor, and raised his long sword with his right hand, ready to kill him.

"do not want!"

Suddenly, the second carriage opened from inside, and a little boy jumped out of the carriage, blocking in front of Bailey.

"Berry, it seems the Lord of Light doesn't want you to kill him!"

Seeing this situation, Soros walked to Bailey's side and said.

Bailey looked at the young boy with firm eyes, sheathed the long sword, and said:
"Brothers, clean up the battlefield. Take them all away!"
