Chapter 144

Woo~woo~woo~
The mournful sound of the flute echoed throughout the sky.

Like a gentle and resentful cry, crying to the cold raging waves; like a ferocious and terrifying neighing, screaming towards the city of Yuwu on the shore.

All the warships fired light at the same time, and the broken boat bay under the dark night was as bright as day.

A large number of light-oriented fish surrounded them curiously, and crowded into dense clumps in the sea, almost filling the deep water;

The humans in Rain House City set up beacon fires in horror, sounded the alarm bell, and called for the sleepers.

"Someone invaded!"

"Hundreds of ships are coming from the sea! Fleet, the fleet of King's Landing!" The terrifying light allowed them to clearly see the number and majesty of the enemy.

"Don't sleep!"

"Come to the walls, all men! Put on your armor! Take up your arms!"

The shouts of the guards on duty came out of the sentry tower with tinkling bells, but the terrifying long chirping from the sea sounded like thunder, and the strange tone made people's hearts tremble and their souls trembled.

Human shouts can't even spread ten steps.

The guards quickly realized that they were doing nothing, but the enemy's alarm also served as a reminder, and the effect was even better.

The towers and houses in the city were lit up one after another, and many people went out to check without even putting on their clothes.

The beacon fire of the sentry tower and the posture of the guards finally sent a clear signal to the city: there are enemies invading from the sea, and they are very powerful!

Pirates of the Stepstones?Squid from the Iron Islands?The little king's royal fleet?
After climbing to the top of the city, people saw the answer.

Countless warships glowed bright white, and the banners on their sails and masts were all black crowned stags with gold backgrounds.

Royal Fleet!

"How could there be so many ships!?"

The suspicious knight held a shiny helmet in his arms, and the crown of the helmet was inlaid with the blue-green swirl coat of arms of the Wilder family.

"Master Casper." The guards saluted the owner of Rain House City respectfully.

Everyone stared at Cusper Wilder, eyes full of anxiety and anticipation, as if everyone's fate depended on Cusper Wilder's next sentence.

Cusper Wilder looked serious, and he was quickly thinking about the current situation in his heart.

Due to various considerations, he did not personally lead the army to respond to Storm's End, but let his uncle Sir Mund Weld lead the team to fight.

However, later intelligence made him regret his decision.

The three northern kingdoms' support for the Iron Throne is less than expected, and Highgarden's performance is more determined and generous than expected.

Victory seemed unquestionable.

At that time, what if His Majesty Renly misunderstood the loyalty of the Wilder family?
Casper Weld then assembled more troops and prepared more supplies, intending to personally lead the army north for reinforcements.

Scheduled to leave tomorrow.

But now.Cuthpar Wilder looked at the bizarre fleet on the sea that looked like a fairy tale, and the balance in his heart couldn't help but swing again.

Could it be that the outrageous news from King's Landing City were not rumors?

And those descriptions that seem absurd even when you listen to them as stories, are all the realities that King's Landing City is experiencing today?

At least, the current powerful fleet is real.

Cuspar Wilder stared at the fleet, and everyone in Rain House City listened to the endless long cry, guessing its symbolic meaning and power.

I do not know how long it has been.

The turbulent long chirping finally subsided and stopped, replaced by a calm declaration that resounded through the castle:

"By the will of His Majesty King Joffrey I, King Joffrey I of the Houses of Baratheon and Lannister, the rebellion shall be crusaded and the coast shall be cleared.

The Wilder family's blind allegiance to Renly, the usurper, fueled the arrogance of the rebels, despised peace, disregarded the people, and betrayed the king who swore allegiance. How could it be tolerated?

Come here today to clarify the truth, set the record straight, and set an example for others.

Hearing order:

Within a quarter of an hour, the white flag is hoisted in Xianyuwu City, and all the members go out of the city to meet them. They can still forgive their sins, retain their fiefs, and be allowed to be kings.

Otherwise, people and horses will die, the castle will be destroyed, and the family name will be ruined.

Don't say it's unpredictable. "

The male voice with no emotion and flat tone announced the most worrying intention of Yuwucheng, announcing a terrible disaster.

No one can ignore the invisible and intangible words.

The fleet in the sea glowed with a strange brilliance, standing firmly in the angry waves, giving the words the heaviest weight and the most dazzling colors, becoming a will to symbolize authority.

All eyes were on the count.

Casper Wild held the helmet on his chest tightly, with a dignified expression.

Who will win the throne?

What choice should the Wilder family make?Is now the time to make a choice?

Cuthpar Wilder was distraught.

This war should not have been a disaster for the Wilder family.

The Wilder family only needs to follow the tradition, firmly loyal to the monarch, do their duty, fight hard, abide by the honor and oath, and accept surrender or surrender with dignity.

Then, regardless of success or failure, at least he can continue to exist under the new king and keep the family castle.

however.

Surrendering now, even in the face of a huge fleet that cannot resist, can it be considered loyalty?

He knows the answer.

Today, the war has just begun. After Marseille Cape, Rain House City is very likely to be the second piece of land to welcome the flames of war.

The surrender at this time will never be understood by the princes, let alone tolerated by Storm's End.

If Storm's End wins the final victory, and His Majesty Renly happens to remember this incident, the Wilder family will face the crisis of decline and even destruction.

Compared with such a risk, even being razed by the royal fleet is more acceptable.

If you swear to be loyal to the emperor, the family name will be more glorious and glorious, the princes will praise and praise, and the king will not be able to openly criticize.

After all the dust settles, the new king will definitely not hurt the feelings and traditions of the nobles, and the Wilder family will be reborn, passing on the fiefs, taxes and titles for thousands of years.

"Master, it's almost time." His attendant couldn't help reminding him.

"I know."

Cuspar Wilde stroked the familiar coat of arms a few times, and firmly put on the helmet.

Moreover, Rain House City is a fortress carefully built by the family for generations, at least it can last for a while, waiting for reinforcements, big storms or the retreat of the royal fleet.

Cuthpar Wilder was still quite puzzled by the fleet's attack.

Why is the Royal Fleet in such a hurry to occupy the rainforest of Cape Wrath?To Storm's End, to Griffin's Roost.

Why waste precious time in Rain House City?
No time to dwell on it.Caspar Wilder immediately ordered the maester: "Let the ravens fly to report the news to Storm's End and Fallen Wood."

The black bird circled the tower a few times and flew far north without any hindrance.

Arrive in a quarter of an hour.

Aboard the Divine Favor, Joffrey sighed.

"The whole army shelled."
