Chapter 96 Carlin Bay

Rumble!
The Lannister cavalry descended like fierce tigers, accompanied by the thunderous sound of horseshoes, pierced straight into the line of defense under the yell of Earl Vance.

呲!
The Lannister cavalry at the forefront, holding their steel lances tightly under their armpits, carried a powerful impact and easily pierced through the panic-stricken Hejian soldiers.

The moment the two sides came into contact, the defense line of the Hejian soldiers immediately spattered with blood, kicking off the cruel war prelude.

The steel lances of some Lannister cavalry pierced through the chests of the soldiers in the riverland, and under the force of the horses' charge, they continued to charge forward alive.

And some unlucky Hejian soldiers were hit in the face by sharp lances.

Under the powerful impact, most of their heads were either poked off alive, or their entire heads exploded instantly, turning them into headless corpses.

Behind the Lancers in front, the light cavalry armed with swords and shields followed the passage through which their comrades rushed out, brandishing their long swords, mercilessly harvesting the lives of the soldiers in Hejian.

"Keep in formation and stop them!"

At the rear of the Hejian soldiers formation, Earl Vance rode on a horse led by a guard, looked at the half-cut army formation, and shouted anxiously.

Earl Vance encountered a cavalry raid, and personally organized his own family soldiers to form a defensive formation to resist. His courage is commendable.

However, the war was not decided by his courage alone.

The Lannister cavalry, who took advantage of the right time and place, easily tore apart the formation of the soldiers in the river.

Before the formation was torn apart, Earl Vance bravely marched against the torrent of steel with all the guards around him.

呲!
The lance of a Lannister cavalry pierced the chest of Earl Vance's war horse, and the horse's front legs gave way on the spot, causing him to fall hard to the ground.

Tear!

Fortunately, Earl Vance did not fall off his horse and died. He just stood up in a dizzy state, wanting to check the battle situation.

A Lannister light cavalry swung a long sword in his hand and cut most of his neck, hot blood spurted from Earl Vance's neck.

The more than 2000 Hejian soldiers on the battlefield were basically Earl Vance's family soldiers. Earl Pepper gathered thousands of soldiers from his own family before the battle began.

When he saw that the formation organized by Earl Vance was easily torn apart by the Lannister cavalry, and seeing that he was about to be unable to hold on, he hurriedly rode his horse and led his troops to flee.

Ah!
This temporary barracks was trampled into ruins at this moment, and some of the Hejian soldiers who were seriously injured and survived were stabbed by Lannister cavalry amidst the screams.

Kevan rode his steed, wandering through the ruins of blood and screams.

A middle-aged general beside him, wearing armor with a purple unicorn family crest, asked, "Master Kevan, about a thousand enemy troops fled towards Riverrun when the battle started.

Most of them are infantry, and if they start now, they can catch up in half a riding day. "

"No need, this group of soldiers from the Tully family set up their camp at the foot of the mountain unsuspectingly, they are like fat meat sent to the door.

Now that we have eaten this lump of fat, if there is an ambush ahead, we will lose more than we gain.

Lord Andros, this war is at stake, and we must be careful. "

Kevan shook his head when he heard this, and rejected Count Andros's suggestion.

The lord of Horn Valley City, Earl Andros, knew that Kevan had never had his own opinions, so he must have meant Duke Tywin, so he nodded and did not continue speaking.

"Continue to clean up the battlefield, and when the infantry team arrives, we will go to the outside of Riverrun, station and surround, and cut off the support of the Tully family to the Stark family.

Then, according to Lord Tywin's plan, I will take advantage of the night to lead my troops to..."

……

Kalin Bay is located at the northern end of the Neck covered by wetlands and swamps. It used to be a large fortress gathered by twenty towers.

After the scouring of time and power, it has now become an abandoned fortress with only three towers left.

But regardless of ancient or modern times, the strategic location of Kalin Bay is very important. It guards the causeway that allows the army to pass through the Neck safely.

When Ed was in the dungeon, he once said to Robb, as long as Carlin Bay and White Harbor are guarded.The Lannister family couldn't even set foot in the North.

This is not empty talk!

The three remaining towers of Carlin Bay just control the only causeway going north from three directions.

To attack one of the towers, the enemy army had to wade through waist-deep black mud, cross lizard-infested moats, and climb moss-covered, slippery walls.

As long as hundreds of archers are deployed on these three towers, no army can risk the arrow rain of the archers on the other two towers and forcefully climb the towers.

However, this is all for going from south to north.

Since it was originally built to defend against attacks from the south, it would be much easier to attack from the north.

After seven days of marching, Robb's northern army arrived at Cailin Bay, which is currently occupied by Trogg, the logistics commander of Winterfell.

As Theon said, Trogg was very serious and responsible. When their army arrived, the logistics force had already cleaned up and maintained the three towers in Kalin Bay, and made some fortifications nearby.

The arrival of more than 2 troops from the north not only filled the area of ​​the three towers, but also covered the King's Avenue north and south of the causeway with military tents.

Robb rode on a black warhorse, while looking at the fortress that had protected the North for thousands of years, he conveyed thoughts to Bloodwind in his heart.

At this time, Trogg, the logistics commander, drove forward and invited him to a tower called the Gate Tower.

The Gate Tower is one of three surviving towers in Moat Cailin.It is currently the only tower that looks relatively complete, and there are even walls a few feet high on the left and right sides.

The tower was, as it should be, the residence of the King in the North and the meeting hall where wars were discussed.

The ancient city gate tower has now been cleaned up very cleanly, and Trog specially arranged it to make it more comfortable and livable.

At a long table that was obviously newly made, Robb and all the earls except for Dreadfort, Deepwood Castle, and Torrhen's Square sat down, and generals of all levels stood behind them.

First of all, he praised and encouraged Trogg, and Robb went directly to the formal discussion.

……

When Robb and others were discussing, the Bay of Carlin turned northwest, less than [-] kilometers away.

This is a river in the Neck, called the Redang River, its mouth is in the Yanmao Flat, and it goes straight to the Sunset Sea.

At this moment, a long boat similar to the kayak of the previous life was rowed to the shore by several iron men wearing gray leather armor and leather pants with long swords.

As soon as they got ashore, they quickly lifted the long boat and moved it to a relatively hidden location.

Using the surrounding tree branches and other sundries to cover up the longboat, they sneaked towards Kalin Bay with a very clear goal.
