Game of Thrones: Attack on the North Wolf
Chapter 201 Frozen
Da da da!
"Father, turn left here! But be careful jumping over the lighter colored slab, it's the trap trigger!"
The memory ability of young people is definitely better than that of old people, so after retreating decisively from the north city gate, Dickon, who has been familiar with the routes and traps of the plant maze for the past few days, now took the lead and led the way.
Behind him, Earl Landau, who knew the danger of this plant labyrinth, led seven or eight hundred Tully family soldiers followed closely in his footsteps.
Bang, bang!
Earl Landau had just jumped over the light-colored stone slab and stood firm, when he heard two huge explosions.He immediately followed the sound and looked in the direction of the explosion.
I saw two huge and thick orange flames rising violently at the south gate of Gaoting in the distance.Then, two billows of black smoke that looked like winding pythons shot straight into the sky.
"Looking at it, it should be the two flamethrowers that exploded! I just don't know if it was an accident or someone sabotaged it.
However, very good!
The black oil in our two flamethrowers has been completely consumed, and they are useless without the black oil in the second wall storage room.
But if the flamethrower on Vilas' side falls into the enemy's hands, our next defense will be even more difficult! "
Looking at the flames in the distance, Earl Randall analyzed the situation at the south gate with a serious expression.As if remembering that the situation on his side was not very optimistic, he continued,
"Go ahead, go to the scheduled location first!"
"Yes!"
Dickon and many soldiers of the Tarly family answered in unison to Lord Randyll, and continued to walk forward along the plant maze where only the surrounding towering walls could be seen to identify the direction.
On the north wall of Highgarden, those who faced Oberyn's attack were nearly a thousand family soldiers who were left behind by Earl Landau and were loyal to the Tarly family.
Under their heroic fighting like a besieged beast, although more and more soldiers of the Martell family climbed up the city wall behind Oberyn, they could not quickly defeat this group of Tully family soldiers, but could only slowly nibble away. watching them.
And Garth, who led nearly [-] Hightower family soldiers from the west wall, successfully defeated the Tyrell family soldiers blocking him.
After glancing at the battle situation in front of the city wall, Garth did not choose to go to assist Oberyn's army, but led his family's soldiers down the steps of the city wall, and began to pursue Earl Randyll and his party who were retreating towards the second city wall.
Although in this battle against High Court, the two of them are allies.However, the benefits obtained by capturing famous generals such as Earl Landau and taking the lead in breaking through the inner fort of High Court are completely different.
After walking quickly down the northern city wall, Garth saw a wide avenue leading directly to the second city wall.But at this time, the wide avenue is full of wooden horses inlaid with spikes blocking the way.
Whoo, whoo!
As soon as Gals took a few steps forward, a pungent smell entered his nostrils.
As the lord family of the old town that widely accepted all kinds of light and dark goods from Westeros and Essos.How could Gals fail to recognize such a distinct smell of wildfire.
He stopped and looked at the green trees on the left and right sides of the broad avenue, and he immediately understood.
As long as intruders dare to step into this wildfire-soaked trap, rockets will surely shoot out of nowhere.
Moreover, there was no sign of Earl Landau and his party on the broad avenue. Obviously, they did not take this road.
Looking at the entrance of the plant labyrinth closest to the north city gate, Gals led the family soldiers into it without the slightest hesitation.
He had seen Earl Randall retreating with less than half of his troops before, so he was not worried that the other party would have the courage to ambush him.
"Stop!"
Turning left and right along the plant maze with only one road, Gals, who had been walking for more than ten minutes, gradually frowned. He suddenly shouted to stop his troops, then drew his long sword and pointed towards the green wall in the direction of the second city wall. Trees were cut down.
clang!
A crisp impact sounded, and the green tree in front of Garth was split with a sword mark as thick as a little finger.
As the outer bark of the green tree was destroyed, the black inner layer of the tree was revealed before Garth's eyes, and then a small stream of dark brown sap oozed out of it.
"Damn it, what kind of tree is this? It's so hard!"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Gals opened his eyes wide, showing a very shocked expression.
Of course he would not know that this kind of green-looking tree is actually called iron tree, and it is a strange tree on the continent of Westeros.Its texture is very hard and the overall wood color is dark.
However, since the diameter of a mature tree does not exceed 2.1 centimeters and the maximum does not exceed [-] feet (about [-] meters), and the cost of felling is huge, it cannot be regarded as an economic tree.
But for Gaoting, this iron tree is very important, because the plant labyrinth behind the first city wall is all made up of this kind of tree.
But why is the black iron tree green in Highgarden?
This is because the family crest of the gardener family, the royal family of the Riverbend Kingdom, was a green palm.In addition, High Court is known as the most beautiful green paradise.
Therefore, the King of the River Bend sent someone to paint the black iron tree green on a regular basis, which has continued to the current Tyrell family.
In the words of the previous life, this is a vanity project!
"You ride on his neck and look at the road ahead!"
Galth's idea of cutting a road leading directly to the second city wall was shattered by this unusually hard strange tree.He pointed to two tall Hightower family soldiers and ordered.
Hearing this, the two soldiers immediately acted according to his command.Indeed, the seven-foot iron tree was not even as tall as the Magic Mountain, and of course it couldn't block the view of the soldier riding on his neck.
"Master Galth, I can see that the road ahead seems to have two forks, I can't see whether they are dead ends.
But... this tree maze is too big! "
The soldier who was trying to look around looked around for a while, then lowered his head and replied to Garth.
In the field of vision of this Hightower soldier, except for the northern city wall that is relatively close behind him, the surrounding area is surrounded by a sea of plants formed by countless green trees, and the edge cannot be seen at all.
Since the plant maze can be regarded as the first barrier after the fall of the city wall by the river bend kings of all dynasties, if the invaders find a way out so easily, wouldn't it be tantamount to slapping them in the face.
"Well, the two of you will be captains from now on. Now each choose a ten-man team to scout the route ahead."
Gals pondered for a moment, then pointed at the two Hightower soldiers and gave his order.
"As ordered!"
The two Hightower soldiers who had been promoted by Gals to be captains had expressions of surprise on their faces. After they saluted Gals respectfully, they immediately went to choose their own squad.
When the two new captains had chosen their squads, they set off first to scout the way for Garth's large army.Walking through the corner of this plant maze, there are indeed two forks in the next road.
The two new captains looked at each other, and then led the team towards the fork in the road that was closer to them.
Da da da!
The 11-person team on the left side of the fork road is moving forward silently. They walk in the passage formed by rows of iron trees, as if they have been cut off from the outside world.
"Gulu, Ai...Captain, do you think there are any traps in this maze, beast?"
A team member should be familiar with the new captain, he asked nervously.
"There is a fart trap, have you heard too many knight stories? I heard that this plant maze in Highgarden is usually visited by many dignitaries. What if there is a trap that hurts them?
I tell you, this war against Highgarden is our opportunity.I was just like you just now, haven't I been promoted to captain now?
If I didn't want to make you familiar bastards feel good, why would I choose you to join my team? "
Hearing the acquaintance's words, the new captain immediately pushed him rudely, and then answered.
"Yes, yes! Thank you Captain!"
Hearing this, the team member who was pushed forward by the new captain turned around with a flattering smile and replied.
"It's good to know, since you are so timid, go to the front and practice your courage!"
"Uh, yes!"
After secretly greeting the new captain's family in his heart.The team member nodded and walked forward.
click!
Eh?
As soon as the player took a small step forward with his right foot and stepped on a light-colored stone slab, he felt his body suddenly lose his balance.When he stood still, he looked at his right foot, and saw that the light-colored slab had sunk down to his ankle.
"Captain, I seem to have stepped on..."
Huh, huh, huh!
Just as the team member turned his head to speak, hundreds of sharp crossbow arrows shot out from the iron bushes on the left and right sides of this maze passage.
Bang, bang, bang!
The ten-member squad, including the new captain, was instantly shot into a hornet's nest by the dense crossbow arrows. Before they could scream, they fell to the ground and died.
"...to the trap!"
As soon as the team member finished speaking, he felt a chill in his body. As soon as he lowered his head, he saw several crossbow bolts stuck in his chest and thigh.
Some of the team members who didn't react, their eyes were a little confused, shook back and forth, and then fell to the ground.
And the 11 people on the right fork were better than them, at least they could scream!
"Ah! My lord, have mercy, mercy, mercy!"
Tear!
Looking at the Hightower soldier who fell on the ground and begged for mercy, Dickon paused for a moment with the long sword in his hand, and then slashed down violently.
"Okay, go back to the hiding place and continue the ambush!"
After putting his long sword back into its sheath, Dickon immediately gave instructions to dozens of soldiers of the Tully family in the passage.
Afterwards, Dickon led the soldiers of the Tully family to the corner of this 'T'-shaped passage, Qiqi raised a movable iron bush next to him to block in front of him.
The 'T'-shaped channel becomes a '7'-shaped channel in an instant!
Hearing the screams coming from ahead, Gals immediately felt that the Pathfinder team had encountered the remnants of Earl Landau.So he immediately called the Hightower family soldiers behind him and ran forward.
But what happened next made Gals extremely irritable.
Various traps such as dark crossbow traps and ground thorn traps in the plant maze, plus the sudden attack of the remnant soldiers of Earl Landau.This made the dragon-like team of the Hightower family unable to look at each other from head to tail, causing constant turmoil.
If it is a frontal battle, Earl Landau's army has no chance of winning against the Garth army with more troops and mysterious soldiers to help out.
But now using the plant labyrinth, the soldiers of Garth's army are constantly decreasing due to various situations.
"Sister, Randyll Tarly should be nearby. Can you use magic to make him automatically appear in front of us?"
After being attacked again by a soldier of the Tully family who appeared out of nowhere, Garth, who couldn't bear it anymore, walked up to the mysterious soldier and whispered.
"Gals, first of all, the power I use is not magic, but advanced occultism.
Then, it cannot be used at will according to your ideas, but must operate in accordance with certain principles that exist between heaven and earth. "
Hearing this, the mysterious soldier opened his mask to reveal his beautiful face and answered.
She is Lord Leighton Hightower's eldest daughter, Moroya Hightower.
Because she showed abnormal behaviors beyond ordinary people's understanding when she was a child, she was secretly called "crazy girl" by the people of Old Town.
However, Earl Leighton Hightower, the 'Old Town Man', loved the eldest daughter very much.
Tywin Lannister once proposed marriage to him, wanting him to marry the insane Moroya to his son, Tyrion.
In Tywin's view, a crazy girl with a dwarf is an excellent marriage that is well-matched and can strengthen the relationship between the two big families.
However, Earl Layton ruthlessly rejected this matter on the grounds that 'the Hightower family does not need half-humans'.
Since then, Earl Layton and Moroya have often stayed in the towering tower to conduct mystical research.
Especially after the red comet crossed the sky, the two of them stayed at home even more, and even the food was delivered to the towering tower by servants on time every day.
It is worth mentioning that at that time, Stannis' royal fleet was ambushed by Redwyne's fleet and Hightower's fleet under the towering tower.Such a brutal Oldtown ambush failed to attract the slightest attention from either of them.
"Okay, I don't want to know what you call it! Now I just want to know about these rats hiding around!
Please remember, this time I am representing the meaning of my father! "
When Gals heard that his eldest sister was starting to get serious about trivial matters again, he rolled his eyes and immediately talked about the topic.
"Hey, I'm going to consume my moonstone again! If it wasn't for my father's order, I can use this time to analyze another section of mystical runes!"
Upon hearing this, Moroya pursed her mouth.While pulling down his mask and complaining in a low voice, he stepped up and walked towards the pile of corpses of Hightower soldiers who were attacked by surprise.
Gals followed behind her step by step, and according to Moroya's practice every time she made a shot, the guards turned their backs to them to block the sight behind her.
Under Garth's gaze, Moroya squatted in front of a complete corpse of a Hightower soldier, and then took out the light blue gem that was smaller than before from her bosom, which was the moon she mentioned just now. Feldspar.
Then, an unknown language that Gals could not understand rang out from Moroya's mouth, and the light blue iridescence of the moonstone in her hand gradually deepened.
Suddenly, the corpse of the Hightower soldier in front of Moroya opened his eyes.Its gray eyes quickly took over with dark blue.
hiss!
Garth, who had never seen Moroya use this kind of magic, saw this corpse that seemed to have been revived.A gust of cold air rushed straight from the tailbone to the Tianling Gai, and he felt that the surrounding air seemed to have dropped several degrees.
"Where is the man who killed you?"
Seeing her knowledge of mysticism successfully running, Moroya nodded in satisfaction and asked the corpse.
Click, click!
The right hand of the revived corpse made a series of crisp joint fracture sounds, and then its right hand pointed straight to a dead end in a very strange posture.
"Thank you, rest in peace!"
After getting the answer, Moroya thanked the corpse, and then the dark blue light of the moonstone in her hand suddenly shrank, and the light dissipated, and the moonstone was significantly smaller than before.
"Come on, there is a problem in that area, go and check it carefully!"
Without Moloya saying anything more, Gals immediately turned around and shouted orders to the guards behind him.
With a clear goal, these personal guards immediately brought a large number of Hightower family soldiers to this dead end. After a careful inspection, they directly moved the iron bush to the side under their concerted efforts.
"Run!"
When the iron bush was carried by enemy soldiers, Dickon whispered to the Tarly soldiers to run behind them.
Therefore, when Hightower soldiers poured into this passage, they could only see the backs of the enemies ahead.
"Quickly bite them! Follow them and you will be able to get out of this damn plant maze!"
Gals obviously also saw the back of the enemy, and he shouted excitedly at the guards and family soldiers in front of him.
Afterwards, the soldiers of the two families fled and chased, and played a battle royale in the plant maze.
In the port area outside the west gate of Highgarden, the Redwyne fleet, which had only half the number of galleys of the Hightower fleet, was approaching them at a constant speed.
"During the war, order the entire fleet to be vigilant!"
Although Sir Baylor was full of disdain for the Redwyne family, he still maintained the cautious attitude he should have when he was in a state of war.
However, let's not talk about the order of that big man!
Even the twin sons of Paxter controlled by Tywin Lannister in King's Landing City can make him obediently obey our orders!
Watching the Redwyne fleet getting closer, some information about Earl Paxter emerged in Sir Baelor's mind.
Hu, Hu, Hu!
Just when Sir Baylor was fully confident, dozens of black spots with whistling sound were thrown from the Redwyne fleet towards the Hightower fleet.
Huh, huh!
Dozens of blazing barrels of asphalt smashed directly into the Hightower fleet in the port area, most of them shattered everywhere on these galley warships, and a few were directly sprinkled on the canvas embroidered with the tower's family emblem.
Fortunately, the sails of ordinary warships have fire-resistant coatings. Although they can't completely block the burning asphalt stuck to them, it doesn't allow the fire to spread quickly.
"Enemy attack!!!
Damn it!The cubs of the Redwyne family have betrayed us, everyone stopped moving the ship, and the whole army started to fight back! "
Ser Baelor, who had reacted from the asphalt barrel raid, immediately shouted loudly, causing many Hightower soldiers who were moving away from the empty ships in the port area to start counterattacking the Redwyne fleet.
"Brothers, if you kill a cub of the Hightower family, you will be rewarded with a hundred silver stags. It's time to get rich!"
Earl Paxter, who was pulling the cable and standing on top of the figurehead of a medium-sized galley, shouted loudly the reward for killing the enemy that had been announced earlier.
Taking a short breath, Earl Paxter didn't care whether the enemy could hear him or not, he continued to roar loudly,
"Hmph, Tywin Lannister! Want to plot against our Redwyne family?
If you really have the ability, you can cross the sea to attack Qingting Island.Our Redwyne family has never been afraid of anyone at sea!
If something really happened to my twin sons, then I will definitely make you pay the same price! "
At this moment, the strong river wind was blowing the few clumps of orange hair on his bald head, which made the humble Earl Paxter look very proud.
After finishing speaking, thinking of the one who was hiding in the dark, Count Paxter's eyes could not help showing a gloomy look.
Forget it, don't think so much.Let's kill the Hightower family who betrayed the lord first!
Most of the Redwyne fleet are large galleys that can travel far.The Comand River does not support such a large warship with an extremely heavy tonnage and a deep draft.
Therefore, Earl Paxter could only attack with small and medium galley warships that were less than half the number of Hightower's fleet.
Fortunately, Gals had already taken away one-third of the Hightower family's troops, and at this moment, many Hightower soldiers were still on the empty ships waiting to be transferred.
This period of time was enough for the Redwyne fleet to quickly approach the Hightower fleet in the port area with relatively small losses.
"Command, shrink the line of defense!
Let all our ships be close together.The soldiers of the Redwyne family are extremely capable of water warfare, so we will use our ships as land to fight them on land! "
Ser Baelor, who deeply understood the advantages of the Redwyne family and his own disadvantages, directly issued wise orders that were beneficial to his side.
Bang, bang, bang!
When the defense lines of the Hightower fleet shrank together, the Redwyne fleet rammed towards them fiercely.Immediately, countless small and medium-sized oar warships in the port area were inlaid with each other through strong collisions.
Go!kill!
This is the beginning of the brutal gang-to-board battle between the two major fleets!
The individual quality of the soldiers of the Redwyne family is obviously higher than that of the Hightower family, but the number of soldiers is obviously smaller than that of the opponent.
In addition, the water of the Mande River is already gentle, and the Hightower family blocked all the ships together, directly making these ships as stable as Mount Tai, as if they were fighting on a smooth land.
The soldiers of the Redwyne family who couldn't give full play to their advantages were immediately suppressed by the soldiers of the Hightower family.
Tear!
Ser Baelor slit the throat of a Redwyne soldier with his hands, watching the enemy being pushed back to the Redwyne fleet ships, he was very satisfied with his wise decision.
"The enemy is approaching! So many squid longships! God, how fast they are!"
At this moment, Sir Baylor heard the loud exclamation of his family's soldiers.
What?The iron fleet of squids is coming?
But it doesn't matter, this port area is already occupied by our ships, and there are Redwyne fleet ships outside as shields.These squid ships can't even get close to us!
Upon hearing this, Sir Baylor had a shocked expression on his face, and then the situation that appeared in his mind immediately calmed down.
call!
Click, click, click!
A whistling white ice fog blew from the direction of the Redwyne fleet, and Sir Baelor immediately heard a tooth-piercing sound coming from below the ship.
This sudden change made the entire battlefield quiet, and everyone looked down the ship in unison.
I saw that a thick layer of white ice crystals had condensed on the surface of the Mande River, which was still in long summer.The river water visible to the naked eye flows slowly under the ice crystals.
The river in this area of the Mande River was suddenly frozen!
Crack, crack, crack!
There was a sound of feet stepping on the ice, and Sir Baylor immediately looked up.
A handsome boy holding a two-handed giant sword was walking towards them on the ice with a little wolf cub.Behind them, an army that could not be seen at a glance, holding direwolf flags and squid flags was also walking on the ice!
"Father, turn left here! But be careful jumping over the lighter colored slab, it's the trap trigger!"
The memory ability of young people is definitely better than that of old people, so after retreating decisively from the north city gate, Dickon, who has been familiar with the routes and traps of the plant maze for the past few days, now took the lead and led the way.
Behind him, Earl Landau, who knew the danger of this plant labyrinth, led seven or eight hundred Tully family soldiers followed closely in his footsteps.
Bang, bang!
Earl Landau had just jumped over the light-colored stone slab and stood firm, when he heard two huge explosions.He immediately followed the sound and looked in the direction of the explosion.
I saw two huge and thick orange flames rising violently at the south gate of Gaoting in the distance.Then, two billows of black smoke that looked like winding pythons shot straight into the sky.
"Looking at it, it should be the two flamethrowers that exploded! I just don't know if it was an accident or someone sabotaged it.
However, very good!
The black oil in our two flamethrowers has been completely consumed, and they are useless without the black oil in the second wall storage room.

Huh, huh, huh!
Just as the team member turned his head to speak, hundreds of sharp crossbow arrows shot out from the iron bushes on the left and right sides of this maze passage.
Bang, bang, bang!
The ten-member squad, including the new captain, was instantly shot into a hornet's nest by the dense crossbow arrows. Before they could scream, they fell to the ground and died.
"...to the trap!"
As soon as the team member finished speaking, he felt a chill in his body. As soon as he lowered his head, he saw several crossbow bolts stuck in his chest and thigh.
Some of the team members who didn't react, their eyes were a little confused, shook back and forth, and then fell to the ground.
And the 11 people on the right fork were better than them, at least they could scream!
"Ah! My lord, have mercy, mercy, mercy!"
Tear!
Looking at the Hightower soldier who fell on the ground and begged for mercy, Dickon paused for a moment with the long sword in his hand, and then slashed down violently.
"Okay, go back to the hiding place and continue the ambush!"

Hearing this, the mysterious soldier opened his mask to reveal his beautiful face and answered.
She is Lord Leighton Hightower's eldest daughter, Moroya Hightower.
Because she showed abnormal behaviors beyond ordinary people's understanding when she was a child, she was secretly called "crazy girl" by the people of Old Town.
However, Earl Leighton Hightower, the 'Old Town Man', loved the eldest daughter very much.
Tywin Lannister once proposed marriage to him, wanting him to marry the insane Moroya to his son, Tyrion.
In Tywin's view, a crazy girl with a dwarf is an excellent marriage that is well-matched and can strengthen the relationship between the two big families.
However, Earl Layton ruthlessly rejected this matter on the grounds that 'the Hightower family does not need half-humans'.
Since then, Earl Layton and Moroya have often stayed in the towering tower to conduct mystical research.
Especially after the red comet crossed the sky, the two of them stayed at home even more, and even the food was delivered to the towering tower by servants on time every day.
It is worth mentioning that at that time, Stannis' royal fleet was ambushed by Redwyne's fleet and Hightower's fleet under the towering tower.Such a brutal Oldtown ambush failed to attract the slightest attention from either of them.
"Okay, I don't want to know what you call it! Now I just want to know about these rats hiding around!
Please remember, this time I am representing the meaning of my father! "
When Gals heard that his eldest sister was starting to get serious about trivial matters again, he rolled his eyes and immediately talked about the topic.
"Hey, I'm going to consume my moonstone again! If it wasn't for my father's order, I can use this time to analyze another section of mystical runes!"
Upon hearing this, Moroya pursed her mouth.While pulling down his mask and complaining in a low voice, he stepped up and walked towards the pile of corpses of Hightower soldiers who were attacked by surprise.
Gals followed behind her step by step, and according to Moroya's practice every time she made a shot, the guards turned their backs to them to block the sight behind her.
Under Garth's gaze, Moroya squatted in front of a complete corpse of a Hightower soldier, and then took out the light blue gem that was smaller than before from her bosom, which was the moon she mentioned just now. Feldspar.
Then, an unknown language that Gals could not understand rang out from Moroya's mouth, and the light blue iridescence of the moonstone in her hand gradually deepened.
Suddenly, the corpse of the Hightower soldier in front of Moroya opened his eyes.Its gray eyes quickly took over with dark blue.
hiss!
Garth, who had never seen Moroya use this kind of magic, saw this corpse that seemed to have been revived.A gust of cold air rushed straight from the tailbone to the Tianling Gai, and he felt that the surrounding air seemed to have dropped several degrees.
"Where is the man who killed you?"
Seeing her knowledge of mysticism successfully running, Moroya nodded in satisfaction and asked the corpse.
Click, click!
The right hand of the revived corpse made a series of crisp joint fracture sounds, and then its right hand pointed straight to a dead end in a very strange posture.
"Thank you, rest in peace!"
After getting the answer, Moroya thanked the corpse, and then the dark blue light of the moonstone in her hand suddenly shrank, and the light dissipated, and the moonstone was significantly smaller than before.
"Come on, there is a problem in that area, go and check it carefully!"
Without Moloya saying anything more, Gals immediately turned around and shouted orders to the guards behind him.
With a clear goal, these personal guards immediately brought a large number of Hightower family soldiers to this dead end. After a careful inspection, they directly moved the iron bush to the side under their concerted efforts.
"Run!"
When the iron bush was carried by enemy soldiers, Dickon whispered to the Tarly soldiers to run behind them.
Therefore, when Hightower soldiers poured into this passage, they could only see the backs of the enemies ahead.
"Quickly bite them! Follow them and you will be able to get out of this damn plant maze!"
Gals obviously also saw the back of the enemy, and he shouted excitedly at the guards and family soldiers in front of him.
Afterwards, the soldiers of the two families fled and chased, and played a battle royale in the plant maze.
In the port area outside the west gate of Highgarden, the Redwyne fleet, which had only half the number of galleys of the Hightower fleet, was approaching them at a constant speed.
"During the war, order the entire fleet to be vigilant!"
Although Sir Baylor was full of disdain for the Redwyne family, he still maintained the cautious attitude he should have when he was in a state of war.
However, let's not talk about the order of that big man!
Even the twin sons of Paxter controlled by Tywin Lannister in King's Landing City can make him obediently obey our orders!
Watching the Redwyne fleet getting closer, some information about Earl Paxter emerged in Sir Baelor's mind.
Hu, Hu, Hu!
Just when Sir Baylor was fully confident, dozens of black spots with whistling sound were thrown from the Redwyne fleet towards the Hightower fleet.
Huh, huh!
Dozens of blazing barrels of asphalt smashed directly into the Hightower fleet in the port area, most of them shattered everywhere on these galley warships, and a few were directly sprinkled on the canvas embroidered with the tower's family emblem.
Fortunately, the sails of ordinary warships have fire-resistant coatings. Although they can't completely block the burning asphalt stuck to them, it doesn't allow the fire to spread quickly.
"Enemy attack!!!
Damn it!The cubs of the Redwyne family have betrayed us, everyone stopped moving the ship, and the whole army started to fight back! "
Ser Baelor, who had reacted from the asphalt barrel raid, immediately shouted loudly, causing many Hightower soldiers who were moving away from the empty ships in the port area to start counterattacking the Redwyne fleet.
"Brothers, if you kill a cub of the Hightower family, you will be rewarded with a hundred silver stags. It's time to get rich!"
Earl Paxter, who was pulling the cable and standing on top of the figurehead of a medium-sized galley, shouted loudly the reward for killing the enemy that had been announced earlier.
Taking a short breath, Earl Paxter didn't care whether the enemy could hear him or not, he continued to roar loudly,
"Hmph, Tywin Lannister! Want to plot against our Redwyne family?
If you really have the ability, you can cross the sea to attack Qingting Island.Our Redwyne family has never been afraid of anyone at sea!
If something really happened to my twin sons, then I will definitely make you pay the same price! "
At this moment, the strong river wind was blowing the few clumps of orange hair on his bald head, which made the humble Earl Paxter look very proud.
After finishing speaking, thinking of the one who was hiding in the dark, Count Paxter's eyes could not help showing a gloomy look.
Forget it, don't think so much.Let's kill the Hightower family who betrayed the lord first!
Most of the Redwyne fleet are large galleys that can travel far.The Comand River does not support such a large warship with an extremely heavy tonnage and a deep draft.
Therefore, Earl Paxter could only attack with small and medium galley warships that were less than half the number of Hightower's fleet.
Fortunately, Gals had already taken away one-third of the Hightower family's troops, and at this moment, many Hightower soldiers were still on the empty ships waiting to be transferred.
This period of time was enough for the Redwyne fleet to quickly approach the Hightower fleet in the port area with relatively small losses.
"Command, shrink the line of defense!
Let all our ships be close together.The soldiers of the Redwyne family are extremely capable of water warfare, so we will use our ships as land to fight them on land! "
Ser Baelor, who deeply understood the advantages of the Redwyne family and his own disadvantages, directly issued wise orders that were beneficial to his side.
Bang, bang, bang!
When the defense lines of the Hightower fleet shrank together, the Redwyne fleet rammed towards them fiercely.Immediately, countless small and medium-sized oar warships in the port area were inlaid with each other through strong collisions.
Go!kill!
This is the beginning of the brutal gang-to-board battle between the two major fleets!
The individual quality of the soldiers of the Redwyne family is obviously higher than that of the Hightower family, but the number of soldiers is obviously smaller than that of the opponent.
In addition, the water of the Mande River is already gentle, and the Hightower family blocked all the ships together, directly making these ships as stable as Mount Tai, as if they were fighting on a smooth land.
The soldiers of the Redwyne family who couldn't give full play to their advantages were immediately suppressed by the soldiers of the Hightower family.
Tear!
Ser Baelor slit the throat of a Redwyne soldier with his hands, watching the enemy being pushed back to the Redwyne fleet ships, he was very satisfied with his wise decision.
"The enemy is approaching! So many squid longships! God, how fast they are!"
At this moment, Sir Baylor heard the loud exclamation of his family's soldiers.
What?The iron fleet of squids is coming?
But it doesn't matter, this port area is already occupied by our ships, and there are Redwyne fleet ships outside as shields.These squid ships can't even get close to us!
Upon hearing this, Sir Baylor had a shocked expression on his face, and then the situation that appeared in his mind immediately calmed down.
call!
Click, click, click!
A whistling white ice fog blew from the direction of the Redwyne fleet, and Sir Baelor immediately heard a tooth-piercing sound coming from below the ship.
This sudden change made the entire battlefield quiet, and everyone looked down the ship in unison.
I saw that a thick layer of white ice crystals had condensed on the surface of the Mande River, which was still in long summer.The river water visible to the naked eye flows slowly under the ice crystals.
The river in this area of the Mande River was suddenly frozen!
Crack, crack, crack!
There was a sound of feet stepping on the ice, and Sir Baylor immediately looked up.
A handsome boy holding a two-handed giant sword was walking towards them on the ice with a little wolf cub.Behind them, an army that could not be seen at a glance, holding direwolf flags and squid flags was also walking on the ice!
