Chapter 162
After seeing the situation outside Riverrun City clearly, Patrick immediately made up his mind to go to Golden Tooth City to report the situation to Robb.

He and Thomas had smaller goals, and they escaped with one man and two horses a few days ago.If you drive overnight from Riverrun City to Golden Tooth City, it will only take you about a day.

Patrick and Thomas walked carefully through the woods behind them, and returned to the place where they placed their four war horses.

"Lord Patrick, shall we still take the Wilderness Trail?"

Thomas asked while untying the rein tied to the big tree and handing it to Patrick.

"No, there is no need to avoid the scouting cavalry in the western region. Therefore, we will go directly to the river road, and we must meet His Majesty Robb as quickly as possible!"

Patrick took the reins of the two horses, then shook his head and replied.

After determining the route, the two of them led four horses through the woods quickly, wanting to return to the Hejian Avenue as soon as possible and ride their horses forward.

"Lord Patrick, when I was in Riverrun, I heard that you, Lord Edmure, and Marco Piper are close friends?"

While Patrick and the two were on their way in a muffled voice, Thomas suddenly asked.

"Yes!"

"Myer and I are also best friends, but we will never point our swords at each other. Marq Piper's behavior towards Lord Edmure really tarnishes the word best friend."

Hearing Patrick's sad reply after his footsteps stopped, the young Tomard spoke.

"Perhaps... the term best friend can only exist at your age!"

After hearing this, Patrick was silent for a while, then quietly answered Tomard, and the night a few days ago came to mind.

……

Since Sir Marco led nearly a thousand cavalry troops first, the rest of Edmure's troops, which were all infantry, were stationed near the River Road, which was half a day away from Shili City.

Sir Marco has not been seen to return, Edmure discussed the battle plan with Patrick, Earl Lins and other high-level officials, and then returned to the military tent to rest.

"Uh... giggle!"

梭梭
In the middle of the night, Patrick, who fell into his dream, was suddenly awakened by a depressing muffled sound and the sound of footsteps outside the military tent.

Hearing the obviously abnormal noise outside the camp, Patrick suddenly felt that something had happened, he didn't even bother to put on his armor, he picked up his sharp ax from the weapon rack and ran out of the camp.

"What are you doing?"

As soon as Patrick stepped out of the tent, he saw two soldiers from Hejian holding ropes and strangling the two guards in front of his tent from behind.

But the two guards had one hand stuck between the rope and their necks, and they were in a stalemate with the two Hejian soldiers. Those sounds were the guards' muffled hums and the sound of their feet stamping on the ground as they struggled.

呲!
Patrick's shout attracted the attention of two Riverland soldiers, and their hands relaxed unconsciously.Taking advantage of the chance to breathe, a guard pulled out the dagger from his waist with the other hand and thrust it into the eye of the soldier behind him.

The other Hejian soldier wanted to let go and run away, but was firmly held by the guard he was restraining.Patrick stepped forward in two steps and slashed his head with a sharp ax in his hand.

After rescuing the two guards, Patrick had time to look at the corpses of the two river soldiers.Judging from the newness of their fish scale armor, they should be inexperienced recruits.

Otherwise, the two guards would have no chance to struggle and wake up Patrick in the camp.

Moreover, a red cloth strip the thickness of a thumb is tied on their left arm, apparently for identification.

"Enemy attack! Wake up, there are enemies!"

Patrick leaned over and untied the two red cloth strips from the two corpses, and led the two guards towards Edmure's tent while yelling loudly.

Whoa!

"Kill!"

The cries of the three of Patrick broke the tranquility of the camp, and suddenly many soldiers in the camp were awakened, and those soldiers with red cloth strips tied on their left arms saw that their whereabouts were exposed, and simply started to attack.

The camp immediately became chaotic, and some Hejian soldiers who had no idea who the enemy was were cut down to the ground by these former comrades in the same clothes.

"The ones with the red cloth strips on their hands are the rebels, they are the enemy! Come to me to form an array to meet the enemy, and listen to my command!"

Patrick cut down a rebel in front of him, then yelled at the dazed Riverland soldiers around him.

As Patrick's backbone stood up, soldiers from Hejian continued to gather around him.They used combat squads as formations, interspersed and killed the rebels in the camp.

However, Edmure's tent was obviously the main target of the rebels. Hundreds of rebels gathered together and besieged Edmure, who was protected by dozens of elite personal guards.

Although these rebels composed of new recruits from Hejian had a large number of people, they couldn't help but have powerful combat capabilities and tacit cooperation with dozens of personal guards. At the same time, the army of soldiers gathered by Patrick was constantly rushing towards them.

Da da da!
A sound of horseshoes quickly approached the camp from far to near, and Patrick, who was near the gate of the camp, turned his head to look.It was Sir Marco who led the long-awaited cavalry back to the camp at a critical moment.

"Marco, the ones with the red cloth in their hands are the rebels. Come and save Edmure!"

Sir Mark seemed to have heard Patrick's shout, he drew out his long sword, and led the cavalry behind him towards Patrick and them.

Patrick, who had a smile on his face after seeing Sir Marco, gradually restrained his smile when he saw the cold eyes of Sir Marco who was getting closer.

clang!
Patrick, who had already raised his vigilance in his heart, directly raised the sharp ax in his hand to block when Sir Marco suddenly drew out his sword.

Tear!

what!what!
Patrick blocked the attack in time, but the Hejian soldiers beside him, who faced Commander Edmure's tent and turned their backs to Sir Marco's cavalry, were suddenly attacked from behind, blood splattered all over their bodies, and fell to the ground screaming. .

The cavalry behind Sir Marco rushed into the camp continuously. Judging from the current number, it was far more than a thousand.With the help of these cavalry units, the battle in the camp fell into a one-sided situation.

Facing an enemy dozens of times larger than his own, Edmure in the commander's camp did not want these elite guards who were like brothers to sacrifice in vain, so he directly ordered to surrender.

Finally, Sir Marq ordered that all soldiers loyal to Edmure be escorted to the center of the camp.

"Bah! The bastard who betrayed the monarch and his brother, beast. Your future affiliation must be the seven hells."

Patrick, whose face was covered in blood and his hands were tied behind his back, looked at Sir Marco who was walking toward them expressionlessly, spit directly, and then cursed.

"Lord Edmure, would you like to submit to Lord Tywin and dedicate Riverrun to him?"

Sir Marco continued walking without looking sideways, and he didn't mean to talk to Patrick at all.He went straight to Edmure and asked very politely.

"Ma Ke, I regard you as the only one, and I believe that I have never treated you badly. Why did you betray me?"

Seemingly hit by Marco's betrayal, Edmure didn't get angry, nor did he curse Sir Marco, but asked with a frustrated face.

"Edmure, it's pointless to ask why now. It seems that your answer is no!"

Sir Marco didn't want to get too entangled with Edmure, he said a word in a cold tone, then turned his head and nodded to the two cavalrymen beside him.

Seeing Sir Marq's signal, the two cavalrymen went directly to Edmure's side, untied his rope, and firmly controlled his hands.

"Our hands are sensitive to touch because of the dexterous work we do. But that's why the pain is more intense in the hands than in the body.

And pain is the best reason to persuade you to surrender! "

While chatting expressionlessly, Sir Marco pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist, and walked to Edmure's left hand.

"Marco, what do you want to do? I swear to the gods, if you dare to touch Edmure, I will kill you with my own hands. Definitely!"

Watching Sir Marq draw out his dagger, and let another cavalry move a wooden pier.Patrick yelled at him worriedly.

Sir Marco still directly ignored Patrick's threat.He tilted his head at the cavalryman controlling Edmure's left hand.The cavalryman directly pressed Edmure's left hand on the wooden pier.

"Edmure, are you willing to surrender?"

Sir Marco looked at the unusually calm Edmure, and asked again, but Edmure still chose to remain silent.

Boom!
"what!!!"

The sharp dagger chopped heavily on the wooden pier, and with Edmure's screams, the little finger of his left hand was chopped off by Qi Gen, and a stream of bright red blood flowed on the wooden pier.

"Surrender?"

"No!"

Seeing Edmure's distorted face in pain, Sir Marq asked again.But this time Edmure was no longer silent, but roared very simply.

Boom!
"what!!!"

This time he got a clear answer, and Sir Mark directly swung his knife and chopped off Edmure's left ring finger.His movements are crisp and neat, like a skilled butcher chopping meat.

"Surrender?"

"No!"

Sir Marco asked again, and Edmure, who was trembling all over because of the severe pain, replied again in a weak but firm tone.

Boom!
As the sharp dagger fell, Edmure's left middle finger snapped off again.But this time he didn't scream, because the excessive pain triggered the body's protection mechanism, and he passed out directly.

"Piper, stop it!"

"Lord Tywin!"

Just as Sir Marq looked at the unconscious Edmure and hesitated, a deep and majestic voice came from behind them.

When everyone heard the sound, they turned their heads and looked behind them. Immediately, Sir Marco and all the cavalry saluted respectfully.

"Well, come, give him a bandage to stop the bleeding!"

Tywin, who was wearing the armor of the Lannister family and a bright red cloak embroidered with angry lions, nodded slightly at them, then pointed to Edmure and said.

"Yes!"

When a military doctor with the army heard the order, he immediately took a toolbox and applied medicine to Edmure to stop the bleeding, and bandaged it with white gauze.

"Piper, I approve of your loyalty to me and to the Lannister family. You don't have to insist on proving anything."

Tywin walked to Sir Marco's side, patted his shoulder lightly, and whispered.

"Yes, Lord Tywin!"

"By the way, my dear vassal, where is Lins Leighton of Deep Cave City?"

Hearing Sir Marco's answer, Tywin nodded slightly, then turned to ask the densely packed captives in the center of the camp.

tom!
A figure with bound hands stumbled out from the crowd, and fell to his knees with a plop.Then he replied to Tywin with a trembling voice: "Lord Tywin, I was wrong. These things are entirely my own ideas, please let the Layton family go."

"Well, it's good to admit your mistake! Someone, cut off his head for me, and store it with lime.

When I collect all the heads of the Layton family, I will put them together in Lannisport, so that everyone can see what happens when they betray the Lannister family! "

After listening to Earl Lince's words, Tywin nodded in agreement, and then gave his order to the cavalry on the side.

"It's not about the Layton family, it's me, just kill me. Lord Tywin! Tywin..."

Hearing Tywin's order, Earl Lins immediately turned pale with fright and kept shouting.Until he was beheaded by a cavalryman.

"Piper, you don't need to force Edmure to submit. He has ancient and noble blood, and he is worth living as long as he lives.

Just let these soldiers choose!Surrender or die!

If you are willing to surrender, let me see that Edmure's personal guards are probably dozens of people, which is enough.

After Edmure regained consciousness, let the surrendered soldiers each stab his bodyguard with a knife. "

Watching Earl Lins who betrayed him be beheaded, Tywin nodded in satisfaction.Then he taught Sir Marco how to do things in a flat tone.

"Obey, Lord Tywin!"

"When things on your side are settled, take these captives to play with Swyfer, who is now stationed outside Riverrun. Let them fight with their lives, and act more realistically!
Well, you are still in command of these Lannister cavalry, and I have to join Shallot's army. "

Seeing that the situation on Sir Marco's side was completely under control, and after the task was properly handed over, Tywin did not stay too long, and left with his troops.

After Tywin left, Sir Marco followed his instructions and told thousands of riverside soldiers the choice of surrender or death.And gave them a night to think.

Although Patrick insulted Sir Marq, he still treated him as a noble prisoner and kept him in a separate camp.

The garrison camp passed the night in this bloody rebellion, as it approached dawn.From the beginning of the rebellion, Thomas, who had been skilled in hiding among the dead bodies, slipped into the camp where Patrick was held from behind.

After being rescued by Thomas, Patrick knew that the strength of the two of them was not enough to change the status quo.

So, he used the two red cloth strips he had collected at the beginning to confuse the Lannister cavalry who didn't know the soldiers in the riverland at all, stole four war horses and escaped from the camp.

……

After nearly a whole day of driving overnight, when it was almost noon the next day, the two of Patrick finally saw the Golden Tooth City standing on Tengshi Mountain.

But Wangshan ran dead horses, in fact, the distance between them and Golden Tooth City is still half a day's riding time.

Sierra! ~~
Clang, clang!
kill!
When the two of Patrick rode to the top of a hill on the River Avenue, all kinds of noise accompanied by a strong smell of blood rushed to the face.

I saw that at the foot of the Golden Tooth City Mountain, Dafeng once defeated Earl Vance and Earl Piper on the plain with four thousand soldiers from the river.Tens of thousands of soldiers are fighting fiercely.

Standing up the flag of the Western Region, the infantry soldiers of the Western Region, who were obviously larger in number, formed a huge square formation.

They were fighting fiercely with an infantry phalanx bearing the northern flag right in front of them, but the number of the northern phalanx was only about a quarter of that of the western phalanx, so they were obviously not opponents.

However, on the left and right flanks of the infantry phalanx in the western region, there were two waves of thousands of cavalry carrying the banner of the northern region, charging towards them.

The first to contact was the light cavalry on the right. They did not directly attack the formation of the infantry phalanx in the western region, but were very shrewd in charging back and forth from their right wing to the rear.

They were like scraping dough from the previous life, scraping off the flesh and blood of the western infantry phalanx layer by layer.

On the left side, the heavy cavalry, wearing heavy armor and holding lances, directly and fiercely loaded into the left wing of the western infantry phalanx, like a sharp knife piercing a piece of meat.

At the same time, following the charge of these heavy cavalry, there were more than a dozen very conspicuous and eye-catching terrifying giant wolves.

After they carried the knights on their backs into the infantry phalanx of the western region, they immediately caused disturbances, leaving a small vacuum in the infantry phalanx of the western region.

From Patrick's point of view, it seemed that dozens of giant beetles were driving away the ants.

Ow!

Among the terrifying pack of wolves, there was a giant gray wolf whose size was also considered outstanding, carrying a knight in armor with the emblem of the direwolf, raised his head to the sky and let out a wolf howl that shocked the entire battlefield.

Patrick and Tomad looked at each other, immediately full of surprise.

It's His Majesty Robb and his direwolf, Bloodwind!
