Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 197 The Savage's Proposal

"How dare you?" shouted Joffrey angrily. "I am the Dauphin! I"

Before Joffrey could finish his sentence, he was thrown to the ground again, causing the onlookers to burst into laughter.

"You'll regret it!" Joffrey got up, his face flushed red, and his beautiful blond hair was covered with mud. "And you, you'll regret it! I'll make mother order you all! Kill all of you!" you!"

The savage boy who had just overturned Joffrey took a step forward upon hearing this, and Joffrey backed away in fright. He accidentally slipped his foot, fell to the ground again, and then cried aggrievedly.

The onlookers laughed louder when they saw this, and the sound became harsher in Joffrey's ears.

"Kill you all! I want my mother to kill you all!" He murmured while picking up small stones on the ground.

Joffrey wanted to throw the stone at the boy who just hit him, but when he caught the other's eyes, he trembled, and the stone in his hand fell to the ground.

Tyrion watched the scene of Joffrey being cleaned up from a distance, and didn't make a sound. He was happy to see this nephew. Maybe it was also the nephew being educated by the wildlings.Cersei doted on him too much, and Robert always ignored the children, which made him Joffrey's overly domineering character.

Although the purpose of these savages is not known yet, they did not harm themselves these people. They even provided themselves with fur for warmth, and that was enough.

Thinking of this, Tyrion tightened his collar.

It's frighteningly cold here, and the temperature keeps dropping.The temperature at night has already dropped below freezing point, and whenever the wind blows, it cuts into his warmest sheepskin clothing like a sharp knife.

This is Beyond the Wall, these kind wild people rescued him from the fate of freezing Jiji in Castle Black, but they want to take him to a colder place, his second brother really has a bad life.

The good news is that these female savages are very open, and I don’t have to worry about whether there are prostitutes like I was on the Great Wall. The bad news is that these female savages look down on dwarves. If you ask them to pay, there is a high probability In exchange for a fat beating.

"Tyrion Lannister." A voice sounded behind Tyrion, and he recognized who it was.

That was the leader of this group of savages. At that time, he led a full 40 good men to attack Winterfell's team heading for Castle Black. They set up ambushes and laid a net around them, as if they knew that their party would pass there.

Although the escort team sent by Winterfell was all on horseback, none of them managed to escape in the end.

These wildlings slaughtered the escorted cavalry, leaving only Joffrey, Tommen, Jon, Benyan and their own lives, and took themselves and others through the secret passage under the Great Wall to the outside of the Great Wall. Regarding this , Tyrion really wanted to go back and complain to the Iron Throne and the Night Watchmen for their negligence.

Uh. If I hadn't been exiled myself.

"Yes, thank you for remembering my name, but if you can ignore this unfortunate surname, I will thank you even more, my lord freeman." Tyrion turned around.

"The free folk have no adults, we never bow our knees." Marvin said with a smile, unconsciously getting into the drama, he added in his heart.

"It's an enviable habit," Tyrion admired. "I mean it."

"Then it's nice that we have something in common, and it will be really helpful for us to work together."

"Cooperate?" Tyrion raised his voice, looking down from his instep all the way up to his chest, "I don't know what cooperation between a great freeman and a dwarf who is less than half your height can do? "

"If the dwarf's last name is Lannister, yes."

Tyrion frowned. He didn't like being reminded of that repeatedly.

"I'll tell you one more piece of news that you'll be delighted with," Marvin continued, "Your brother James has left the northern border. If nothing else happens, my friend should have taken him on a boat at the Red Fork by now." On the river, they will reach the west in a few days."

"What did you say?" The news made Tyrion instantly excited, "Did James not be captured by them?"

"He is as free as you are, no, he is far freer than you are now."

"Your friend will send him back to Casterly Rock?" Tyrion confirmed to Marvin.

"Otherwise, who should we ask for a bounty from?"

"What about us? Me, and" Tyrion pointed to the two nephews not far away, "they, are you going to use us for ransom?"

"You make me sad, Tyrion, we saved you, I counted you as a friend, and you treated it like a kidnapping."

"Friend?" Tyrion laughed, "You saved James, and you saved us by such a coincidence? The Seven Gods couldn't make such a coincidence, no, no, no, you already knew everything, right? Where is it sacred?"

As expected of the intellectual responsibility of the world of ice and fire, he saw the problem at a glance, "It's magic, my lord," Marvin pushed everything to the head of magic without hesitation, "We saw Winterfell with the green vision What happened, that's why we rushed to rescue you all the way, but it's a pity that we came one step late."

No, you came just in time, Tyrion replied in his mind.

What good would they have gained if they had come early enough to prevent a bad outcome?Only when the matter of James and Cersei is broken, can they get the life-saving grace of themselves and others.

Of course, if Tyrion sees through this kind of thing and doesn't tell it, it will be detrimental to unity.

"We have to thank you anyway, don't we?" Tyrion followed Marvin's train of thought. "Tell me, what can I do for you?"

He no longer resisted the so-called cooperation as before, because he knew that James was still alive.

Father Tywin will abandon him, but James will not.

As long as James is alive, he will definitely come to save himself, no matter the end of the world, Tyrion is convinced of this.

"It's cooperation," Marvin corrected again, "It's a win-win situation for us."

"Win-win?" Tyrion wondered, it was a new word.

It’s that I win twice, “it’s that we both benefit from it.”

"for example?"

"You will write to Lord Tywin and Sir James, telling them about the situation here, and at the same time telling them that you plan to raise an army outside the Great Wall."

"I form an army???" Tyrion was stunned, "Where the hell am I going to form an army?"

"It's us, Lord Tyrion, we are your army," Marvin pointed to himself, "Mance Rayder is uniting the entire free folk, he has gathered 3 people in the Frostfang, and in In the next year, we will call up an army of [-] troops."

"You can't tell me that this army will obey me." This is stranger than magic.

"As long as Duke Tywin agrees to our conditions," Marvin began to explain, "I promised the chiefs of the various tribes at the clan meeting that I could help them get 3 iron weapons, 3000 sets of iron armor and two Ten thousand sets of leather armor, and enough food for all of us for three months."

"And these things will come from Casterly Rock, right?" Tyrion began to understand the other party's mind.

"Yes, as long as I fulfill this promise, then my reputation among the free folk will surpass Mance Rayder, and I will become the new King Beyond the Wall, and then our army will invade the North and force the Stark family It is impossible to send a single soldier to the south of the Neck. In this way, the military pressure on the western border will be greatly reduced."

"Ideal advice," Tyrion remarked after a moment's thought. "Are you going to be honest?" he asked.

"Can you tell lies?"

"Of course, I've always lied."

"Then you'd better tell the truth."

"I think you are a bunch of mobs. You have neither training nor discipline. No matter how many such people there are, there is no fighting power at all." Tyrion's evaluation became merciless this time,

"If my old brother Jaime were to answer that question, he would tell you that if you had a million men, if you gave him only two thousand knights, he would tear you to pieces on the plain.

All he needs is one charge, and you'll all scatter and trample on each other, creating a mess.

The war is approaching, and it is impossible for Casterly Rock to scatter such a large amount of armaments and food into the sea. Tywin will never agree, and if he promises, he will not be Tywin Lannister! "

"That's why we need your wisdom, my lord," Marvin said earnestly. "In any case, this is your army. Besides, we still need to protect the two princes, don't we?"

Tyrion's face sank, and Marvin's last words were already threatening.

But he was right, James' two sons were in his hands, no matter success or failure, he had to try.
