Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 254 'Express' Euron

"Only by luring Drogo to these two decisive battles can we win with the least loss." Although Ian said so, he was actually not sure about how to lure Drogo.

If it was just Khal Drogo, the mere repetition of reminding him that he had kidnapped his wife would be enough to get him over the top.But what Ian is worried about is whether there will be players in Drogo's army. If there are, then the variable will always exist.

"But once Drogo approaches the valley or arrives at the city of Meereen and doesn't choose a decisive battle immediately, they will cause catastrophic damage to the surroundings of Meereen. The people of Meereen will not accept this plan," Femor was a little worried, "The command regiment would be caught in endless debate."

Of course Ian knew this, but he would rather risk the massacre of Meereen slaves in the western section of the Skahazaban River than risk the destruction of his own legion.

After the slaves of Meereen were massacred, he could capture the Lazarines to replenish them, and the farmlands and forests could be replanted after they were destroyed. But if the army was defeated, all the efforts Ian had made so far would be in vain.

"I will settle the dispute with the command group." Ian said with a smile, once and for all.

"Do you have any other questions?" Ian said and looked at the others.

"No more, my lord."

"No more." Everyone shook their heads.

"Then, the meeting is adjourned now, and you can go back to rectify your respective troops, and I will give the order to move out soon." Ian waved his hand, motioning for everyone to leave.

It wasn't until the entire hall dispersed that Ian noticed that the city lord of Astapor, Fermor mo Nakroz, was still here.

"Fermor? I remember I said that you will enter the highest command regiment of the coalition as a representative of Astapor, and this time you will go out with me." Ian laughed.

"Thank you for giving me this honor," Fermor gave a traditional Gisian salute, "I will faithfully perform my duties."

"So, what's the reason for you to stay?" Seeing that Femor still had no plans to leave, Ian asked suspiciously.

"Please accept my allegiance, my lord." To Ian's surprise, Femor actually half-kneeled on the ground in the manner of a Westeros knight.

"What made you make such a decision?" Ian quickly regained his composure after the initial astonishment, and asked with great interest.

"Do you want to hear the truth, my lord?" Fermor hesitated for a while, but considering Ian's powerful ability to see through lies, he finally gave up his previous numbered excuses.

"if you are willing to."

"I think it's a very dangerous thing to be your ally." Although Fermor decided to tell the truth, he still felt a little trembling when he actually said these words.

It really was the truth, Ian resisted the urge to roll his eyes.

"But if you can become your subordinate, this danger will disappear," Fermor continued, "with you, loyalty will always be rewarded accordingly."

"The reward you want is still Slaver's Bay?"

"If you and Her Majesty are going to leave here and return to Westeros, you will always need someone to help you manage Slaver's Bay"

"Then what if we don't plan to leave? If we plan to build a new empire here with Slaver's Bay at its core, what are you going to do?"

"This" Ian's answer was indeed beyond Fermor's expectations, but he still replied, "I will still maintain my loyalty. I believe that under the wings of your empire, the Nacroz family can also obtain more than The glory of any age."

"You are a wise man, my friend," Ian drew his sword and put it on Femor's shoulder, "I accept your allegiance, and I assure you that it will not be long before your death The name would become Fermor zo Nakroz.

As for Slaver's Bay, I really don't intend to leave within two years, but you can rest assured that we will return to Westeros sooner or later, and Slaver's Bay will definitely belong to you. "

"You made a very wise decision. When the history books of later generations mention you, they will write that the dynasty of the Nakroz family started today." After finishing speaking, Ian put the sword back into the scabbard, and He stepped forward to help Femor himself.

"My lord," said Yada, the water dancer who had entered the hall and waited for a while after Ian finished the ceremony, "a Westeros nobleman who called himself Euron Greyjoy was driving a The warship has come to the port of Astapor, and he claims he wants to meet Queen Daenerys."

Euron the Crow's Eye?Ian's eyes narrowed in an instant. This is an extremely dangerous character. He can do all the bad things in the world, including killing relatives.

In the fifth volume of the original book, the Red God Priest Maqiro saw many shadows threatening Daenerys in the flames, the most sinister of which was a tall and twisted monster with a black eye, very A long arm sailing the sea of ​​blood, and that shadow was Euron.

As the world's most dangerous pirate, Euron's claim that his Serenity has sailed the entire known world is true Ian is not sure.But what Ian can be sure of is that this guy once broke into the ruins of Valyria, explored the mansion of the ancient dragon king, and came up with a dragon horn called "Dragon Binder" and a set of Valyrian weapons. Sub-steel armor.

Hey hey hey, isn't this a courier?Ah bah, it's better not to let such a dangerous monster run around!I am eliminating harm for the people, how could it be for the sake of money?

"Bring him to the hall to meet me." Ian ordered Yada, and then added, "Disarm him before entering the door, and then double the number of guards in the hall."

"Yes." Yada took the order and left.

"What is the origin of this Westeros nobleman? He deserves your attention?" Fermor asked after Yada left.

"It's just a pirate." Ian glanced at the wooden door of the hall that was opened again and the ten Unsullied who were entering the door. "By the way, do you have any merchant ships that have been robbed recently?"

"Ah? No." Fermor didn't realize what Ian meant for a while, "No?"

"No, no, no," Ian stretched out a finger and shook it, "Yes, and not only your family, but the merchant ships of the Lexix family were also robbed, and the pirates who attacked them were extremely vicious and slaughtered almost everyone. Of the crew, only a few survived."

"You mean?" Fermor probably understood.

"The ship that attacked them was a red sloop with black sails and a mouthless black iron maiden at the prow. None of the pirates who attacked them spoke, and their captain It’s a man whose left eye is covered.” Ian said while recalling the description of the Serenity and Euron in the original book, “Can you find the surviving sailors?”

"As soon as I can?"
